< Daniel 1 >
1 In the thirde yeere of the reigne of Iehoiakim king of Iudah, came Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel vnto Ierusalem and besieged it.
Iti maikatlo a tawen ti panagturay ni Jehoyakim nga ari ti Juda, immay ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia iti Jerusalem ket linakubna ti siudad tapno pasardengen dagiti abasto iti daytoy.
2 And ye Lord gaue Iehoiakim king of Iudah into his hand; with parte of the vessels of the house of God, which he caryed into the land of Shinar, to the house of his god, and he brought the vessels into his gods treasurie.
Pinagballigi ti Dios ni Nebucadnesar maibusor kenni Jehoyakim nga ari ti Juda, ket intedna kenkuana dagiti dadduma a nasagradoan a banbanag manipud iti balay ti Dios. Impanna dagitoy iti daga ti Babilonia, iti balay ti diosna, ket inkabilna dagiti nasagradoan a banbanag iti pagikabkabilan iti gameng ti diosna.
3 And the King spake vnto Ashpenaz the master of his Eunuches, that he shoulde bring certeine of the children of Israel, of the Kings seede, and of the princes:
Binilin ti ari ni Aspenaz a kangatoan nga opisialna nga iyunegna dagiti sumagmamano a tattao ti Israel, ti pamilia ti ari ken dagiti mararaem—
4 Children in whome was no blemish, but well fauoured, and instruct in all wisedome, and well seene in knowledge, and able to vtter knowledge, and such as were able to stande in the kings palace, and whome they might teach the learning, and the tongue of the Caldeans.
dagiti agtutubo a lallaki nga awan pakapilawanna, nataraki ti langana, napnoan iti kinasirib, napnoan iti pannakaammo ken pannakaawat, ken mabalin nga agserbi iti palasio ti ari. Isurona kadakuada dagiti sursuro ken pagsasao dagiti taga-Babilonia.
5 And the King appointed them prouision euery day of a portion of the Kings meate, and and of the wine, which he dranke, so nourishing them three yeere, that at the ende thereof, they might stande before the King.
Inraman ida ti ari iti inaldaw a paset ti taraonna ken ti arak nga in-inumenna. Tallo a tawen a masanay dagitoy nga agtutubo a lallaki, kalpasan dayta, agserbida iti ari.
6 Nowe among these were certeine of the children of Iudah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah.
Karaman kadagitoy ket da Daniel, Hananias, Misael kenni Asarias ken dagiti dadduma a tattao ti Juda.
7 Vnto whome the chiefe of the Eunuches gaue other names: for hee called Daniel, Belteshazzar, and Hananiah, Shadrach, and Mishael, Meshach, and Azariah, Abednego.
Pinanaganan ida ti kangatoan nga opisial: Pinanagananna ni Daniel iti Beltesazar, ni Hananias iti Sedrac, ni Misael iti Mesac, ken ni Asarias iti Abednego.
8 But Daniel had determined in his heart, that hee woulde not defile him selfe with the portion of the Kings meate, nor with the wine which he dranke: therefore he required the chiefe of the Eunuches that he might not defile himselfe.
Ngem inkeddeng ni Daniel a saanna a tulawan ti bagina babaen iti taraon ti ari wenno babaen iti arak nga in-inumenna. Isu a dimmawat isuna iti pammalubos iti kangatoan nga ofisial a saanna a tulawan ti bagina.
9 (Nowe God had brought Daniel into fauour, and tender loue with the chiefe of the Eunuches)
Ita, naasian ken pinaboran ti Dios ni Daniel babaen iti panagraem kenkuana ti kangatoan nga opisial.
10 And the chiefe of the Eunuches sayd vnto Daniel, I feare my lord the King, who hath appointed your meate and your drinke: therefore if he see your faces worse liking then the other children, which are of your sort, then shall you make me lose mine head vnto the King.
Kinuna ti kangatoan nga opisial kenni Daniel, “Mabutengak iti apok nga ari. Imbilinna no ania a taraon ken mainom ti maited kenka. Kasano ngay no makitana a saan a nasayaat ti langam ngem kadagiti dadduma nga agtutubo a lallaki a kapatadam? Amangan no patayennak ti ari gapu kenka.”
11 Then sayd Daniel to Melzar, whome the chiefe of the Eunuches had set ouer Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,
Ket nakisao ni Daniel iti dinutokan ti kangatoan nga opisial a mangaywan kada Daniel, Hananias, Misael ken Azarias.
12 Proue thy seruants, I beseeche thee, ten dayes, and let them giue vs pulse to eate, and water to drinke.
Kinunana, “Pangaasim ta subokennakami nga adipenmo iti sangapulo nga aldaw. Ikkannakami laeng kadagiti nateng a kanenmi ken danum nga inumenmi.
13 Then let our countenances bee looked vpon before thee, and the countenances of the children that eate of the portion of the Kings meate: and as thou seest, deale with thy seruantes.
Kalpasanna, idiligmo ti langami iti langa dagiti agtutubo a lallaki a mangan iti taraon ti ari, ket tratoennakami nga adipenmo a maibasar iti makitam.”
14 So hee consented to them in this matter, an proued them ten dayes.
Isu nga immannugot ti mangay-aywan nga aramiden daytoy, ket pinaliiwna ida iti sangapulo nga aldaw.
15 And at the end of ten dayes, their countenances appeared fayrer, and in better liking then all the childrens, which did eate the portion of the Kings meate.
Kalpasan ti sangapulo nga aldaw, nasalsalun-at ti langada, ken naluklukmegda ngem dagiti dadduma a lallaki a nangan kadagiti taraon ti ari.
16 Thus Melzar tooke away the portion of their meat, and the wine that they should drinke, and gaue them pulse.
Isu nga inikkat ti mangay-aywan dagiti taraon ken arakda ket inikkanna laeng ida kadagiti nateng.
17 As for these foure children, God gaue them knowledge, and vnderstanding in al learning and wisedome: also he gaue Daniel vnderstanding of all visions and dreames.
Inikkan ti Dios dagitoy uppat nga agtutubo a lallaki iti pannakaammo ken saririt iti amin a sursuro ken kinasirib, ken maawatan ni Daniel dagiti amin a kita dagiti sirmata ken dagiti tagtagainep.
18 Nowe when the time was expired, that the King had appoynted to bring them in, the chiefe of the Eunuches brought them before Nebuchad-nezzar.
Kalpasan ti tiempo nga intuding ti ari a pannakaipanda, impan ida ti kangatoan nga opisial iti sangoanan ni Nebucadnesar.
19 And the King communed with them: and among them al was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stoode they before the king.
Nakisarita ti ari kadakuada, ken iti entero a bunggoy, awan a pulos ti maidilig kada Daniel, Hananias, Misael, ken Azarias. Nagtakderda iti sangoanan ti ari, a nakasagana nga agserbi kenkuana.
20 And in all matters of wisedome, and vnderstanding that the King enquired of them, hee founde them tenne times better then all the inchanters and astrologians, that were in all his realme.
Iti tunggal saludsod ti kinasirib ken pannakaawat a saludsoden ti ari kadakuada, natakuatanna a maminsangapulo a daras a nalalaingda ngem dagiti amin a salamangkero ken dagiti mangibagbaga a makasaritada dagiti natay, nga adda iti entero a pagarianna.
21 And Daniel was vnto the first yeere of king Cyrus.
Adda sadiay ni Daniel agingga iti umuna a tawen ti panagturay ni Ari Cyrus.
