< Daniel 2 >
1 And in the seconde yeere of the raygne of Nebuchad-nezzar, Nebuchad-nezzar dreamed dreames wherewith his spirite was troubled, and his sleepe was vpon him.
Nebuchadnezzar chu, alengchan kal kumni lhin chun, jankhat mang nommo tah aneyin, imuthei louvin alunggimpi lheh jengin ahi.
2 Then the King commanded to call the inchanters, and the astrologians and the sorcerers, and the Caldeans for to shewe the King his dreames: so they came and stoode before the King.
Hijeh chun lengpa’n, mitphel doithem ho, ai-lhimthem ho, doichoi ho chuleh ahsi lekhathem ho akouvin, ajah’uva, amang chu aseidoh peh diuvin thupeh anei tai. Amaho jong lengpa angsung’a ahung ding soh tauve.
3 And the King sayde vnto them, I haue dreamed a dreame, and my spirite was troubled to knowe the dreame.
Hichun lengpan ajah’uva, “Mang heltah khat kaneiyin, hichun ei sugimlheh jeng tai. Kamang chu ipi kiseina ham, ka hetdoh louva khoh ahi’’ ati tai.
4 Then spake the Caldeans to the King in the Aramites language, O King, liue for euer: shewe thy seruants thy dreame, and wee shall shewe the interpretation.
Hichun Ahsi lekhathem ho chun, lengpa jah’a, “Lengpa hingsot in. Namang chu nasohte hi nei seipehun, chuleh keihon aledohna chu na sei peh tauving’e’’ atiuve.
5 And the King answered and sayd to the Caldeans, The thing is gone from me. If ye will not make me vnderstande the dreame with the interpretation thereof, ye shall be drawen in pieces, and your houses shall be made a iakes.
Lengpa’n amaho chu adonbut in, “Keiman kaseidohsa kakhel louhel ahi nahe’uve. Nanghon kamang chu ipi hija, ipi kiseina ham, nasei dohlou poupou’u leh, na tahsa’u chu ahal hal’a kibottel ding chuleh na-in hou jong kiphelha’a vut kiso ding ahi.
6 But if yee declare the dreame and the interpretation thereof, ye shall receyue of me gifts and rewardes, and great honour: therefore shewe me the dreame and the interpretation of it.
Amavang, nanghon kamang chu na seidoh’uva chuleh na ledoh thei’u leh, keiman nangho thilpeh loupitah leh jabolna sangtah kapeh ding nahiuve. Tun, kamang chu seidohun lang, chuleh aledohna jong ipi ham, sei tauvin’’ ati tai.
7 They answered againe, and sayde, Let the King shewe his seruantes the dreame, and wee will declare the interpretation thereof.
Chuin amahon avellin asei kit’un, Vo lengpa nei lungsetun. Namang chu nei seipehun lang chutah leh keihon aledohna chu ka seipeh thei ding’u ahi’’ atiuvin ahi.
8 Then the King answered, and sayd, I knowe certeinly that ye would gaine the time, because ye see the thing is gone from me.
Lengpa’n amaho chu adonbut in, Ipi nabol’u ahi, ka henai. Nanghon, ka seidoh ka khellou na het jeh’uva
9 But if ye will not declare mee the dreame, there is but one iudgement for you: for ye haue prepared lying and corrupt wordes, to speake before me till the time bee changed: therefore tell me the dreame, that I may knowe, if yee can declare me the interpretation thereof.
Chuleh kamang na seidoh theilou poupou u-leh na manthah ding’u ahi, kati jeh’a, phat che che nading nagel’u ahi. Hijeh chun, keima jouva lhepna din na kihou guhun, phat chal dungyuija kalung kakhel khahleh tia nakinepu ahi. Kasei ahi, kamang chu seidohun, chutah leh nanghon mang chu na ledoh thei ding’u ahi, ti kahet ding ahi.
10 Then the Caldeans answered before the King, and sayde, There is no man vpon earth that can declare the Kings matter: yea, there is neither king nor prince nor lorde that asked such things at an inchanter or astrologian or Caldean.
Ahsi lekhathem hon, lengpa chu adonbut kit’un,’ “Leiset chung mihem khat chan jong lengpa mang chu seidohpeh theiponte. Chuleh leng loupitah leh thahattah hon jong, koiman hitobang hi mitphel doithem ho, ai-lhim them ho, doichoi ho chuleh ahsi lekhathem ho adong kha poi.
11 For it is a rare thing that the King requireth, and there is none other that can declare it before the King, except the gods whose dwelling is not with flesh.
Lengpa thildei hi ahitheilou beh ding ahibouve. Tahsa mihem lah’a hilou pathen ho tilouvin, koiman namang chu seidoh pehthei ponte’’ atiuvin ahi.
12 For this cause the king was angrie and in great furie, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babel.
Hitia aseiyu chu lengpan ajan, alung hang behset jengin, Babylon gamsung’a miching mithem ho abon’a thagam dingin, thupeh anei tai.
13 And when sentence was giuen, the wise men were slayne: and they sought Daniel and his fellowes to be put to death.
Lengpa thupeh chu aki thejal tan, Daniel le aloiho tha dingin ahol tauvin ahi.
14 Then Daniel answered with counsel and wisedome to Arioch the Kings chiefe stewarde, which was gone foorth to put to death the wise men of Babel.
Miching mithem ho thatgam ding’a kondoh, Lengpa sepai lamkai Arioch chu, amaho that jeng ding’a ahung phat chun, Danielin chingtheitah le lunggel them tahin ana kihoupin ahi.
15 Yea, he answered and sayde vnto Arioch the kings captaine, Why is the sentence so hastie from the king? Then Arioch declared the thing to Daniel.
Aman Arioch jah’a chun, “Ipi jeh’a lengpa’n hitobang thupeh nasa hi kino tah’a abol jeng hitam?” ati. Chuin Ariochin jong, thilsoh umdan chu abon’in Daniel chu aseipeh tai.
16 So Daniel went and desired the king that he woulde giue him leasure and that he woulde shewe the king the interpretation thereof.
Apettah chun, Daniel jong lengpa heng’a avahlut jengin, lengpa kom’a amang ledohna ding phat chomkhat athumbe tan ahi.
17 The Daniel went to his house and shewed the matter to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah his companions,
Chuin Daniel chu inlam’a akilen, aloiho Hananiah, Mishael chuleh Azariah kom’a chun, thilsoh umdan chu aseipeh tai.
18 That they should beseech the God of heauen for grace in this secrete, that Daniel and his fellowes should not perish with the rest of ye wise men of Babel.
Aman, thuguh ki-im chu ahetdoh theinadiu le, amaho chengtoh Babylon gam’a aching athem adangho jong, thagam’a aumlouna dinguva, Van Pathen hepina athum diuvin anotai.
19 Then was the secret reueiled vnto Daniel in a vision by night: therefore Daniel praysed the God of heauen.
Chuche jan chun, Pathenin Daniel heng’a themgao thilmun thuguh ki-im chu aphongdoh tai. Hichun Danielin Pathen achoi-an tai.
20 And Daniel answered and sayde, The Name of God be praysed for euer and euer: for wisedome and strength are his,
Hichun aman aseitai, “Tonsot tonsotin Pathen min chu Vahchoijin umhen. Ajeh chu chihna le thahatna abon’a ama-a um ahi.
21 And hee changeth the times and seasons: he taketh away kings: he setteth vp kings: he giueth wisedome vnto the wise, and vnderstanding to those that vnderstand.
Aman leiset chung’a phatleh nikho chuleh thilsoh ho abon’a aumsah ahi. Aman leng ho ahaisah’a chuleh adangho leng’a apansahji ahi. Aman miching ho chihna apen, chuleh mithem ho hetna jong apen ahi.
22 Hee discouereth the deepe and secrete things: he knoweth what is in darkenes, and the light dwelleth with him.
Aman thutah leh kidang tah’a ki-im thilho aphongdoh jin, chuleh Ama vah’a um ahivangin, muthim le khojing lah’a thilho jong ahesohkeiye.
23 I thanke thee and prayse thee, O thou God of my fathers, that thou hast giuen mee wisedome and strength, and hast shewed me nowe the thing that wee desired of thee: for thou hast declared vnto vs the kings matter.
Vo, kapu kapate Pathen, nangma kathangvahin chuleh kavahchoiye. Ajeh chu nangman chihna le thahat neipe in, naheng’a kathumho nei seipeh tai. Chuleh Lengpa’n angeh jong, keiho kom’a na phongdoh tai” ati.
24 Therefore Daniel went vnto Arioch, whome the King had ordeyned to destroy the wise men of Babel: he went and sayde thus vnto him, Destroy not the wise men of Babel, but bring me before the King, and I will declare vnto the King the interpretation.
Chuin Daniel chu, Babylon gamsung’a michingho thatgam ding’a lengpan apansahpa Arioch henga alutin, hitin aseitai, “Miching mithem ho chu suhmangdan, lengpa angsung’a keima neipuilutin lang, lengpa mang chu ipi kiseina ahi, keiman aledohna seipeh ing’e “ati tai.
25 Then Arioch brought Daniel before the King in all haste, and sayd thus vnto him, I haue found a man of the children of Iudah that were brought captiues, that will declare vnto the King the interpretation.
Ariochin jong kinloitahin, Daniel chu lengpa angsung’a apuilut in, lengpa jah’a, “Keiman Judah gammi sohchang ho lah’a mikhat, lengpa mang aledohna naseipehthei ding khat kamu tai” aga ti’e.
26 Then answered the King, and sayde vnto Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to shew me the dreame, which I haue seene, and the interpretation thereof?
Hichun lengpan, Belteshazzar tiajong kihe Daniel jah’a chun, “Hiche asei hi adih ham? Nangman kamang chu ipi hija chuleh ipi kiseina ham, na seido thei ding ham?” ati tai.
27 Daniel answered in the presence of the King, and sayd, The secret which the King hath demanded, can neither the wise, the astrologians, the inchanters, nor the southsayers declare vnto the King.
Danielin lengpa chu adonbut in, “Miching ho, ai-lhimthem ho, mitpheldoi them ho, vang sang them ho chuleh ahsi lekhathem ho, koi hijongleh, hiche namang ki-im leh kiselguh chu aseidohthei ding mihem, aumpoi.
28 But there is a God in heauen that reueileth secrets, and sheweth the King Nebuchad-nezzar what shall bee in the latter dayes. Thy dreame, and the things which thou hast seene in thine heade vpon thy bed, is this.
Ahinlah thuguh ki-im ho phongdohji van’a Pathen khatseh aume, ama chun lengpa Nebuchadnezzar heng’a khonung thilsoh dingho amusah ahitai. Tun keiman, jalkhun’a na emut pet’a themgao thilmua namu namang chu kaseipeh ding nahi.
29 O King, when thou wast in thy bedde, thoughts came into thy mind, what should come to passe hereafter, and he that reueyleth secretes, telleth thee, what shall come.
Lengpa, jalkhun’a na i-mutpet chun, khonung thil hunglhung dingho nagelin chuleh mang naneiyin ahi. Thuguh ki-im ho phongdohji van Pathen chun, khonung thil hungsoh dingho chu, na mang’a namusah ahitai.
30 As for me, this secret is not shewed mee for any wisedome that I haue, more then any other liuing, but onely to shewe the King the interpretation, and that thou mightest knowe the thoughts of thine heart.
Chuleh keima chungchang thu vang chu hiche ahi, midang ho sang’a chingjo leh themjo kahi jeh’a, namang ki-im leh kiselguh chu keiman kahetdoh ahipoi. Amavang, Pathenin nangma tah nalungsung’a um chu nahetsah nom ahi.
31 O King, thou sawest, and beholde, there was a great image: this great image whose glory was so excellent, stood before thee, and the forme thereof was terrible.
Vo lengpa, namang chun milim lentah khat, vah pempum jeng chu namasang’a ahung ding’e. Hichu ivet leh kichat tijat umlheh jeng ahi.
32 This images head was of fine golde, his breast and his armes of siluer, his bellie and his thighs of brasse,
Milim lu chu sana thengsel’a kisem ahin, a-oplhang leh aban teni chu dangka jeng ahin, a-oi leh amal teni chu sum-eng jeng ahi.
33 His legges of yron, and his feete were part of yron, and part of clay.
Chuleh akeng teni chu thih ahin, akengphang teni chu thih leh leiset kihal ahi.
34 Thou beheldest it til a stone was cut without hands, which smote the image vpon his feete, that were of yron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
Navetpet chun, mihem khut’a kikheng hilou songtum khat lhang’a kon’in ahung kilih lhan, thih leh leiset kihal akengphang teni chu ahin sep’in, asep chiphel tai.
35 Then was the yron, the clay, the brasse, the siluer and the golde broken all together, and became like the chaffe of the sommer floures, and the winde caryed them away, that no place was founde for them: and the stone that smote the image, became a great mountaine, and filled the whole earth.
Chuphat in, milim chu apumin akeh lhatan, thih jong, leiset jong, sum-eng jong, dangka jong chuleh sana jong ahal halin aumgamtan ahi. Chuin hui ahung nungtan ahileh, huiya changsi kithemang bangin, ageina lam kihelouvin amangheltan ahi. Ahinlah milim seplhua song chu akhang khangin, mol leh lhang lentah asohdohin, leiset chung alodim dentai.
36 This is the dreame, and we will declare before the King the interpretation thereof.
Hichu, namang chu ahitai. Tun ipi kiseina ahi chu lengpa heng’a kaseipeh ding ahi.
37 O King, thou art a king of Kings: for the God of heauen hath giuen thee a kingdome, power, and strength, and glorie.
Vo lengpa, nangma lengho lah’a leng lenpen chu nahi. Van Pathen chun, nangma lenggam napeh’a, thahat leh thuneina chuleh jabolna napeh ahitai.
38 And in all places where the children of men dwell, the beasts of the fielde, and the foules of the heauen hath he giuen into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler ouer them al: thou art this heade of golde.
Aman nangma tah chu, leiset mihem chenna jouse chung’a vaipo’a napansah’a chuleh gamsa jouse leh vacha jouse chung’a thuneina napeh ahitai. Nangmatah hi, sana-a kisem milim luchang chu nahi.
39 And after thee shall rise another kingdome, inferiour to thee, of siluer, and another third kingdome shalbe of brasse, which shall beare rule ouer all the earth.
Ahin, nang vaipoh khang kichai nungleh, nang sang’a lhasamjo lenggam khat, nang mun’a hung kitungdoh ding ahi. Chuche lenggam jong chu alhuh nungleh, lenggam khat athumna, sum-eng kitilai chu, hung umdoh kitding, leiset chung pumpia vai apoh ding ahi.
40 And the fourth kingdome shall be strong as yron: for as yron breaketh in pieces, and subdueth all things, and as yron bruiseth all these things, so shall it breake in pieces, and bruise all.
Chujou tengleh, thih tobang’a lhou leh hat lenggam khat a li channa chu hung kitungdoh ding ahi. Hiche lenggam chun, thih in thildang ajep set’a chuleh avohkeh bang’a, lenggam masa ho jouse ajepset ding chuleh avohkeh ding ahi.
41 Where as thou sawest the feete and toes, parte of potters clay, and part of yron: the kingdome shalbe deuided, but there shalbe in it of the strength of the yron, as thou sawest the yron mixt with the clay, and earth.
Nangin namu akengphang teni leh akho-jung hochu, thih leh leingan meiya kihalsa kihelkhom ahin, hichu lenggam tampi hung umdoh ding, abung bung’a hung kikhendiu ahi.
42 And as the toes of the feete were parte of yron, and parte of clay, so shall the kingdome be partly strong, and partly broken.
Amaho lah’a abang chu thih tobang’a hattah hintin, abangkhat chu leingan bang’a hung kikhendiu ahi.
43 And where as thou sawest yron mixt with clay and earth, they shall mingle themselues with the seede of men: but they shall not ioyne one with another, as yron can not bee mixed with clay.
Hiche thih leh leingan kihalin avetsah chu, lenggam chom chom chu amaho leh amaho ahat’uva adinkhom theinadiu ngaitonan, numei hung kilato uva kicheng hal jeng jung ding’u, chuleh abung bunga hung pangkhomdiu ahi. Ahinlah, thih leh leingan akikabeh detchet theilou bang’a chu, amaho jong dettah’a kikankhom theilouhel dingu ahi.
44 And in the dayes of these Kings, shall the God of heauen set vp a kingdome, which shall neuer be destroyed: and this kingdome shall not be giuen to another people, but it shall breake, and destroy al these kingdomes, and it shall stand for euer.
Chutobang lenggam kichohhel jeng jung ho phatlai tahle chun, Van Pathenin, kisumang talou ding leh koima khutnoi ja um talou ding, lenggam khat ahin tundoh ding ahi. Hiche lenggam chun lenggam dang jouse abon’a, anung ama umlouva avohchip soh hel ding chuleh hiche lenggam chu atonsot’a ding jing ding ahi tai.
45 Where as thou sawest, that the stone was cut of the mountaine without handes, and that it brake in pieces the yron, the brasse, the clay, the siluer, and the golde: so the great God hath shewed the King, what shall come to passe hereafter, and the dreame is true, and the interpretation thereof is sure.
Hichu, nangman namu lhangvum’a hungkon songtum, mi hem khut’a kisui hilou, thih jong sepgoi, sum-eng jong sepgoi, dangka jong sepgoi, leingan jong sepgoi chuleh sana jong sepgoija thethang soh hel songtum chu kiseina ahi. Hichehi, loupi Pathen chun, khonung thil hungsoh dingho, lengpa henga avetsah ahi tai. Namang chu dihtah ahin, chuleh aledohna jong thonlouva guilhung ding ahi.
46 Then the King Nebuchad-nezzar fell vpon his face, and bowed himselfe vnto Daniel, and commanded that they should offer meate offrings, and sweete odours vnto him.
Chutah chun, Nebuchadnezzar lengpan amai tol’ah asulut in, Daniel chu chibai abohtai. Chuleh aman amite jah’a, Daniel angsung’a kilhaina thilto abol diu chuleh gim namtwi alhutdiuvin thu apetai.
47 Also the King answered vnto Daniel, and said, I know of a trueth that your God is a God of gods, and the Lord of Kings, and the reueiler of secrets, seeing thou couldest open this secret.
Hichun lengpan Daniel jah’a asei tai, “Tahbeh mongin, nang Pathen hi pathen jouse chung’a Pathen ahin, lengho jouse Pakai jong ahi. Chuleh thil ki-imho phongdohpa Pathen jong ahi, ajeh chu nangman thil ki-imho leh akiselguh jouse naphong doh thei jenge” ati.
48 So the King made Daniel a great man, and gaue him many and great giftes. Hee made him gouernour ouer the whole prouince of Babel, and chiefe of the rulers, and aboue all the wise men of Babel.
Chuin Daniel chu lengpan jabolna sangtah apen chuleh thilpeh loupitah tampi jong apen ahi. Chuleh aman Daniel chu panmun sangtah, Babylon gamkai pumpia vaihom in apansah in, agamsung’a miching jouse chung’a pipui pen in apansah tai.
49 Then Daniel made request to the King, and hee set Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego ouer the charge of the prouince of Babel: but Daniel sate in the gate of the King.
Chuin Daniel in angeh dungjui jin, lengpan Shadrach, Meshach chuleh Abednego chu Babylon gamkai ho’a imalam jousea mopo dingin apansah tai. Danniel vang chu, leng inpia chun vaihomin apangden tai
