Daniel 3
1 King Nabuchodonosor made a statue of gold, of sixty cubits high, and six cubits broad, and he set it up in the plain of Dura of the province of Babylon.
Wa Nebucadnetsar te fè yon estati fèt an lò ak yon imaj lò, wotè a sila a te swasant koude e lajè li sis koude. Li te fè l monte sou plèn Dura nan pwovens a Babylone.
2 Then Nabuchodonosor the king sent to call together the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, the rulers, and governors, and all the chief men of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.
Epi Nebucadnetsar, wa a, te voye rasanble tout satrap yo, prefè yo, gouvènè yo, konseye yo, trezorye yo, jij yo, tout majistra ak chèf an pwovens yo pou vini nan seremoni dedikas imaj ke Nebucadnetsar, wa a, te fè monte a.
3 Then the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, and rulers, and the great men that were placed in authority, and all the princes of the provinces, were gathered together to come to the dedication of the statue, which king Nabuchodonosor had set up. And they stood before the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.
Konsa, satrap yo, prefè yo, gouvènè yo, konseye yo, trezorye yo, jij yo, majistra yo ak tout chèf an pwovens yo te rasanble pou seremoni dedikas imaj ke Nebucadnetsar te fè monte a; epi yo te kanpe devan imaj ke Nebucadnetsar te fè monte a.
4 Then a herald cried with a strong voice: To you it is commanded, O nations, tribes, and languages:
Moun ki konn fè piblikasyon pou wa a te pwoklame byen fò: “A nou menm, lòd la bay O pèp yo, nasyon yo ak tout lang yo,
5 That in the hour that you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, and of the flute, and of the harp, of the sackbut, and of the psaltery, and of the symphony, and of all kind of music; ye fall down and adore the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor hath set up.
ke nan moman ke nou tande son a twonpèt la, flit la, bandyo a, saltiyon an, gita a, kònmiz lan, ak tout lòt kalite enstriman mizik yo, nou va pwostène nou pou adore imaj an lò ke Nebucadnetsar, wa a, te fè monte a.
6 But if any man shall not fall down and adore, he shall the same hour be cast into a furnace of burning fire.
Men, nenpòt moun ki pa pwostène pou adore va, lapoula, vin jete nan yon founo dife byen cho.”
7 Upon this therefore, at the time when all the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music: all the nations, tribes, and languages fell down and adored the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.
Pou sa, lè tout pèp yo te tande son a twonpèt la, flit la, bandyo a, saltiyon an, gita a, kònmiz lan, ak tout lòt kalite enstriman mizik yo, tout pèp yo, nasyon yo ak langaj yo te pwostène e te adore imaj an lò ke Nebucadnetsar, wa a, te fè monte a.
8 And presently at that very time some Chaldeans came and accused the Jews,
Pou rezon sa a, nan lè sa a, kèk Kaldeyen te vin parèt pou fè pwosè kont Jwif yo.
9 And said to king Nabuchodonosor: O king, live for ever:
Yo te pale e te di a Nebucadnetsar, wa a: “O wa, viv jis pou tout tan!
10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree that every man that shall bear the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music, shall prostrate himself, and adore the golden statue:
Ou menm, O wa, ou te fè yon dekrè ke tout moun ki tande son a twonpèt la, flit la, bandyo a, saltiyon an, gita a, kònmiz lan, ak tout lòt kalite enstriman mizik yo, yo va pwostène pou adore imaj an lò a.
11 And that if any man shall not fall down and adore, he should be cast into a furnace of burning fire.
Men nenpòt moun ki pa pwostène, va jete nan mitan a yon founo dife byen cho.
12 Now there are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the works of the province of Babylon, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago: these men, O king, have slighted thy decree: they worship not thy gods, nor do they adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.
Genyen sèten Jwif ke ou te chwazi sou administrasyon pwovens Babylone nan, Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego. Mesye sila yo, O wa, pa t okipe ou. Yo pa sèvi dye pa ou yo, ni adore imaj an lò ke ou te fè monte a.”
13 Then Nabuchodonosor in fury, and in wrath, commanded that Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago should be brought: who immediately were brought before the king.
Epi Nebucadnetsar byen anraje ak kòlè te pase lòd pou mennen Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego. Epi mesye sila yo te mennen devan wa a.
14 And Nabuchodonosor the king spoke to them, and said: Is it true, O Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, that you do not worship my gods, nor adore the golden statue that I have set up?
Nebucadnetsar te reponn e te di yo: “Èske se vrè, Schadrac, Méschac ak abed-Nego, ke nou pa sèvi dye mwen yo, ni adore imaj an lò ke mwen te fè monte a?
15 Now therefore if you be ready at what hour soever you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, flute, harp, sackbut, and psaltery, and symphony, and of all kind of music, prostrate yourselves, and adore the statue which I have made: but if you do not adore, you shall be cast the same hour into the furnace of burning fire: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hand?
Alò, si nou pare, nan moman nou tande son a twonpèt la, flit la, bandyo a, saltiyon an, gita a, kònmiz lan, ak tout lòt kalite enstriman mizik yo, pou nou pwostène e adore imaj ke mwen te fè a, se byen. Men, si nou pa adore, nou va byen vit jete nan yon founo dife byen cho. Epi ki dye ki genyen ki kapab delivre nou sòti nan men mwen?”
16 Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago answered and said to king Nabuchodonosor: We have no occasion to answer thee concerning this matter.
Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego te reponn a wa a: “O Nebucadnetsar, nou pa oblije bay ou yon repons a kesyon sa a.
17 For behold our God, whom we worship, is able to save us from the furnace of burning fire, and to deliver us out of thy hands, O king.
Si se konsa, Bondye nou an, Sila ke nou sèvi a, kapab delivre nou soti nan founo dife byen cho a; epi Li va delivre nou sòti nan men ou, O wa.
18 But if he will not, be it known to thee, O king, that we will not worship thy gods, nor adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.
Men menm si li pa fè sa, kite sa vin konnen a ou menm, O wa, ke nou p ap sèvi dye pa ou yo ni adore imaj fèt an lò ke ou te fè monte a.”
19 Then was Nabuchodonosor filled with fury: and the countenance of his face was changed against Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and he commanded that the furnace should be heated seven times more than it had been accustomed to be heated.
Konsa, Nebucadnetsar te ranpli ak chalè kòlè e figi li te vin move kont Schadrac Méschac ak Abed-Nego. Li te reponn ak bay lòd pou monte chalè founo a sèt fwa plis ke li te konn brile a.
20 And he commanded the strongest men that were in his army, to bind the feet of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and to cast them into the furnace of burning fire.
Li te kòmande sèten gèrye vanyan ki te nan lame li a pou mare Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego, pou yo ta jete yo nan founo dife byen cho a.
21 And immediately these men were bound and were cast into the furnace of burning fire, with their coats, and their caps, and their shoes, and their garments.
Alò, mesye sila yo te mare nèt ak pantalon yo, mayo yo, kas yo, ak tout lòt rad pa yo, e yo te jete nan mitan founo dife byen cho a.
22 For the king’s commandment was urgent, and the furnace was heated exceedingly. And the flame of the fire slew those men that had cast in Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago.
Pou rezon sa a, akoz lòd a wa te byen ijan e founo a te vin tèlman cho, flanm dife a te touye mesye ki te pote, fè monte, Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego yo.
23 But these three men, that is, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, fell down bound in the midst of the furnace of burning fire.
Men twa mesye sila yo, Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego te tonbe nan mitan founo dife byen cho a toujou mare.
24 Then Nabuchodonosor the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and said to his nobles: Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered the king, and said: True, O king.
Epi Nebucadnetsar, wa a, te vin etone e te kanpe vit. Li te di a wo ofisye li yo: “Se pa twa mesye nou te voye jete tou mare nan mitan dife a?” Yo te reponn a wa a: “Byen si, O wa.”
25 He answered, and said: Behold I see four men loose, and walking in the midst of the fire, and there is no hurt in them, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.
Li te di: “Gade! Mwen wè kat mesye lage k ap mache toupatou nan mitan dife a san yo pa gen anyen e aparans a katriyèm nan se tankou yon fis a dye yo!”
26 Then Nabuchodonosor came to the door of the burning fiery furnace, and said: Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, ye servants of the most high God, go ye forth, and come. And immediately Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago went out from the midst of the fire.
Epi Nebucadnetsar te vin toupre pòt founo dife byen cho a. Li te pale e te di: “Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego, vini deyò, sèvitè a Bondye Pi Wo a, e vini isit!” Konsa, Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego te sòti nan mitan dife a.
27 And the nobles, and the magistrates, and the judges, and the great men of the king being gathered together, considered these men, that the fire had no power on their bodies, and that not a hair of their head had been singed, nor their garments altered, nor the smell of the fire had passed on them.
Satrap yo, prefè yo, gouvènè yo, ak wo ofisye a wa yo te reyini antoure yo. Yo te wè ke dife a pa t fè okenn efè sou kò a mesye sila yo. Ni menm cheve yo pa t brile, pantalon pa yo pa t abime, ni sant dife a pa t rive sou yo.
28 Then Nabuchodonosor breaking forth, said: Blessed be the God of them, to wit, of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that believed in him: and they changed the king’s word, and delivered up their bodies that they might not serve, nor adore any god, except their own God.
Nebucadnetsar te pale. Li te di: “Beni se Bondye a Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego a, ki te voye zanj Li pou te delivre sèvitè Li yo ki te mete konfyans yo nan Li, ki te chanje lòd a wa a e ki te sede bay kò yo pou yo pa ta sèvi ni adore okenn lòt dye sof ke Bondye pa yo a.
29 By me therefore this decree is made, that every people, tribe, and tongue, which shall speak blasphemy against the God of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, shall be destroyed, and their houses laid waste: for there is no other God that can save in this manner.
Konsa, mwen fè yon dekrè ke nenpòt pèp, nasyon, oswa lang ki pale yon bagay kont Bondye a Schadrac, Méschac, ak Abed-Nego a, li va chire mòso an mòso, e lakay pa li va redwi a yon pil ranblè, paske nanpwen lòt dye ki kapab delivre konsa.”
30 Then the king promoted Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, in the province of Babylon.
Answit, wa a te fè Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego vin pwospere nan pwovens Babylone nan.
