< Daniel 6 >
1 Darius decided it would be good to place the kingdom under the control of one hundred and twenty provincial governors.
Hina bagade Da: liase da ouligisu dunu 120 amo ea ouligisu fi amo ganodini fi dialu ouligimusa: ilegei.
2 Three chief ministers were placed over them to look after the king's interests. Daniel was one of the three.
Amola e da amo ouligisu dunu boboga amo ilia hawa: hamosu amo ouligima: ne, e da Da: niele amola dunu aduna eno ilegei dagoi.
3 Soon Daniel was shown to be a far better administrator than the other chief ministers and provincial governors. Because of his exceptional ability, the king planned to put him in charge of the whole kingdom.
Amola hina bagade, ea sodoloba, Da: niele ea hawa: hamosu da eno ouligisu ilia hawa: hamosu baligi dagoi. Amaiba: le, Da: liase da Da: niele ema Besia sogega ouligisu bisilua ilegemusa: dawa: i galu.
4 As a result the other chief ministers and provincial governors tried to find a pretext against Daniel as to the way he ran the kingdom. But they couldn't find any cause for complaint or any corruption, for he was trustworthy. They could not discover any evidence that Daniel was negligent or corrupt.
Amalalu, ouligisu dunu eno ilia da mudale ba: i. Ilia da Da: niele amo dafama: ne adoba: su logo hogolalu. Be amo fofada: su, amo ganodini da Da: niele ea giadofai afae hame ba: i. Amola Da: niele e da moloidafa dunuba: le, ea hawa: hamosu da noga: idafa ba: i. Amola e da afae hamedafa giadofasu.
5 So they said to themselves, “We won't find any pretext to attack Daniel unless we use his observance of his God's laws against him.”
Ilia ilisu amane sia: dasu, “Ninia da Da: niele ea hawa: hamosu amo ganodini giadofai hame ba: mu. Be Da: niele da Gode Ea sema amoga fa: no bobogesa. Amaiba: le, ninia da amo hou ganodini dafama: ne adoba: su hogomu da defea.”
6 So these chief ministers and provincial governors went together to see the king. “May Your Majesty King Darius live forever!” they said.
Amaiba: le, ilia asili da hina bagade amo ba: la asili, ema amane sia: i, “Hina bagade, Da: liase! Di da eso huluane noga: le esalalalumu da defea!”
7 “We have all agreed—chief ministers, prefects, provincial governors, counselors, and local governors—that Your Majesty should issue a decree, legally enforced, that for the next thirty days anyone who prays to any god or human being except you, Your Majesty, shall be thrown into the lions' den.
Ninia dia soge eagene dunu huluane, amo ninia da gilisili sia: dalu agoane sia: sa: i dagoi. Dia sema gasa bagade hamoma. Amola ninia hanai da dia dunu huluanema olelema. Dia sema agoane legema, amo eso 30 amoga, dunu huludafa da ‘gode’ huluane amola dunu huluane ilima mae sia: ne gadole esaloma: ne sia: ma. Ilia da dima fawane sia: ne gadoma: ne sia: ma. Amola dunu afaega, amo sema legebe go wadela: lisisia, dia dadi gagui dunu da amo dunu laione wa: me uli dogoi amo ganodini galagudumu, amo di sia: ne ilegema.”
8 Now, Your Majesty, if you will sign the decree and have it issued so that it cannot be changed, according to the law of the Medes and the Persians that cannot be revoked.”
“Defea, hina bagade! Di amo sema ilegema amola dia dio dedema. Amalalu, amo sema da Midia amola Besia amo dunu fi ilia sema bagade ba: mu. Amola amo sema afadenemu da hamedeiwane ba: mu.
9 So Darius signed the decree into law.
Amalalu, Da: liase da amo sema ilegei. Ilia da sema dedene amola Da: liase da amoma gasa ima: ne ea dio dedei dagoi.
10 When Daniel found out that the decree had been signed he went home to his upstairs room where he would pray three times a day, with the windows open facing Jerusalem. There he kneeled down, praying and thanking his God as he always did.
Da: niele da amo sema legei nababeba: le, e da wale gadole asili, ea diasuga asi. Ea diasu ganodini amo sesei gadodili dialebe ba: i. Amo ganodini fo misa: ne agenesi amo da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega, ga ba: legai. Ea eso huluane hou amo defele, e da muguni bugili, Godema sia: ne gadosu. E da eso afae amoga udiana agoane sia: ne gadoi.
11 Then the men who had plotted against Daniel went together and found him praying to his God and asking for help.
Da: nielema ha lai dunu da Da: niele amo Godema sia: ne gadolalebe ba: loba,
12 They went to the king right away and asked him about the decree. “Didn't Your Majesty sign a decree that for the next thirty days anyone who prays to any god or human being except you, Your Majesty, shall be thrown into the lions' den?” “I certainly did!” the king replied. “The decree stands. According to the law of the Medes and the Persians it cannot be revoked.”
ilia da asili, ilia hina bagadema Da: niele ea hou fofada: musa: asi. Ilia da ema amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Dia da sema legele, dio dedei dagoi. Di da sema agoane legei, amo eso 30 amoga, dunu huludafa da ‘gode’ huluane amola dunu huluane ilima mae sia: ne gadole esaloma: ne sia: i. Ilia da dima fawane sia: ne gadoma: ne sia: i. Amola dunu afaega, amo sema legebe go wadela: lisisia, dia dadi gagui dunu da amo dunu laione wa: me uli dogoi amo ganodini galagudumu, amo di sia: i,” ilia sia: i. Amo sia: nababeba: le, hina bagade da amane sia: i, “Dafawane! Amo sema hamoi da gasa bagadedafa. Amo da Midia amola Besia ninia sema. Amola afadenemu da hamedei.”
13 Then they told the king, “Daniel, one of those captives from Judah, pays no attention to Your Majesty or to the decree you signed and prays three times a day.”
Amalalu, ilia da Da: liase ema amane sia: i, “Yuda mugululi asi dunu afae amo Da: niele, amo dunu e da dia sia: amo gua: ne fasi dagoi. Amola eso huluane e da ea Godema eso afaega udiana agoane sia: ne gadolala.
14 When the king heard this, he was very upset and tried to think of how to save Daniel. He worked hard until sundown trying to rescue him.
Hina bagade da amo sia: nababeba: le, e da da: i dioi bagade ba: i. Amola e da Da: niele gaga: musa: dawa: i galu. E da Da: nielema fidisu logo eno olelemusa: dadawa: laloba, eso sa: i.
15 Then the men returned together and said to the king, “You know, Your Majesty, that according to the law of the Medes and the Persians no decree or statute can be changed.”
Amola daeya agoane Da: nielema ha lai dunu da ema misini, amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Di dawa: ! Ninia Midia fi amola Besia fi amo ninia hou amo ganodini, adi sema amo hina bagade legemusa: dawa: lalu amo sema da mae afadenene amaiwane dialumu!”
16 Eventually the king gave the order and Daniel was taken and thrown into the lions' den. The king told him, “May the God you so loyally serve save you!”
Amaiba: le, Da: liase da ea dadi gagui ilima ilia Da: niele afugili oule asili, laione wa: me ilia diasu dogoi amo ganodini galaguduma: ne sia: i. Amola e da Da: nielema amane sia: i, “Di da dia Gode Ea hawa: hamosu hahawane hamonana. E da di gaga: mu da defea.”
17 A stone was brought and placed over the entrance to the den and the king sealed it with his own personal seal and those of his nobles so that no one could interfere with what was happening to Daniel.
Ilia da Da: niele amo laione wa: me uli dogoi amogili sanasi dagoi. Amalalu ilia igi bagade afae lale logo amoga ga: si dagoi. Amola, hina bagade da ea amola ea eagene ouligisu dunu ilia gobele ilegesu liligi amo igi da: iya ado ligisi. Dunu enoga wamo Da: niele fidisa: besa: le, agoane hamoi.
18 Then the king went back to his palace. He ate nothing at all that night and refused any kind of entertainment. He couldn't sleep a wink.
Fa: no, hina bagade da hi diasuga bu ogobele misini, amo gasi ganodini e da ha: i mae nawane esalu. Amola dunu amola uda ema hahawane sia: mae sia: ma: ne sia: i. Amola e da afae hamedafa golale ba: i.
19 At dawn, as soon as it was light, the king got up and rushed to the lions' den.
Hahabedafa hina bagade da wa: legadole, hedolodafa asili, laione wa: me uli dogoiga doaga: i.
20 As he approached the den, he called out anxiously to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God whom you honor so faithfully, was your God able to save you from the lions?”
Amoga: i doaga: lalu, e da beda: iwane Da: nielema amane wei, “Da: niele! Di da eso huluane esalebe Gode amo Ea noga: i hawa: hamosu dunu. Gode da di amo laione wa: mega mae gasomoma: ne di gaga: musa: defele ba: bela: ?”
21 Daniel replied, “May Your Majesty the king live forever!
Da: niele da laione wa: me uli dogoi ganodini esala, ema amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Di eso huluane esalalalumu da defea.
22 My God sent his angel to shut the lions' mouths. They have not hurt me because I was found innocent in his sight. In addition, I have never done you any wrong, Your Majesty.”
Gode Ea a: igele dunu asunasili amo misini, da laione wa: me ilia lafi ga: i. Gode da na hou amo ganodini, giadofai hame ba: beba: le, amola dima wadela: i hou hame hamoiba: le amoga E da na noga: le fidi.
23 The king was extremely pleased and ordered Daniel brought up from the den. Daniel was lifted up from the den and he was found to have no injuries at all because he had trusted in his God.
Hina bagade da hahawane bagadedafa ba: i. Amananoba, e da ilima amane sia: i, “Da: niele lale gadodili oule masa!” Ilia e gadodili oule asili, ea da: iga se lai ganabeya: le hogoi be hame ba: i. Bai e da Godema dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le, agoane hamoi.
24 Then the king ordered the men who had accused Daniel to be brought and they were thrown into the lions' den along with their wives and children. Before they even reached the floor of the den the lions attacked them, ripping them to pieces.
Amalalu, hina bagade da sia: beba: le, dadi gagui da dunu amo da Da: nielema fofada: i, amo amola ilia uda amola mano, huluane laione wa: me uli dogoiga galagudui. Amola sanasinanoba, uli dogoiga daloba, hedolodafa laione wa: me ilia da soaga: la: gadole, ilia gasa huluane goudane sasali.
25 Then Darius wrote to all the people of the world, the different nations and languages, saying, “I wish you well!
Amalalu, hina bagade Da: liase da dunu amola uda fifi asi gala amola sia: hisu hisu ilima meloa dedene i, amane, “Na dilima asigi sia: sia: sa.
26 I decree that throughout my entire kingdom everyone should respect and honor the God of Daniel, for he is the living God. He is everlasting and his kingdom will never be destroyed. His reign will never end.
Na ouligibiga esalebe fi dunu amola uda! Dilia na sia: goe noga: le nabima. Dilia da Da: niele ea Gode amo Ea Dio bagade nodone gaguia gadoma. Amo Gode da eso huluane esalalalumu. E da Hina Bagade eso huluane fifi ahoanumu. Amola Ea gasa da hamedafa fisili, eso huluane amanewane dialumu.
27 He is the one who rescues and saves; he does miracles and wonders in the heavens and on earth. He saved Daniel from death in the lions' den.”
E da dunu amola uda mae se lama: ne gaga: musa: dawa: E da Hebene amola osobo bagade amo ganodini musa: hame ba: su amola dawa: digima: ne olelesu gasa bagade hou hamonana. E da Da: niele amo laione wa: me amoga mae gasomoma: ne gaga: i dagoi.
28 Daniel experienced good success during the reigns of Darius and Cyrus the Persian.
Amola Da: liase e hina bagade esalebe eso amogalu da Sailase (Besia dunu) da ea sogebi lai dagoi. Amo eso huluane ganodini Da: niele da hahawane ouligisu mimogo dunu bagadedafa esalu.
