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.

Na mobu ya mibale ya bokonzi na ye, Nabukodonozori alotaki ndoto. Molimo na ye etungisamaki makasi mpe pongi ekimaki ye.

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.

Mokonzi abengisaki bato oyo balobaka makambo oyo ekoya, banganga-kisi, bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto mpe bato ya mayele ya mabe mpo ete bayebisa ye ndoto oyo alotaki. Tango bayaki, batelemaki liboso ya mokonzi;

3 And the King sayde vnto them, I haue dreamed a dreame, and my spirite was troubled to knowe the dreame.

mpe mokonzi ayebisaki bango: — Nalotaki ndoto moko oyo ezali kotungisa molimo na ngai makasi; nazali na posa ya koyeba ndimbola na yango.

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.

Bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto balobaki na lokota ya bato ya Arami: — Tika ete mokonzi awumela na bomoi seko na seko! Yebisa ndoto na yo epai ya basali na yo, mpe tokolimbola yango.

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.

Mokonzi alobaki na bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto: — Tala mokano oyo nasili kozwa: « Soki boyebisi ngai te ndoto oyo nalotaki mpe ndimbola na yango, nakokata bino biteni-biteni mpe nakobuka-buka bandako na bino.

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.

Kasi soki boyebisi mpe bopesi ngai ndimbola na yango, nakopesa bino bakado, lifuti mpe lokumu mingi. Yango wana, boyebisa ngai ndoto yango mpe bopesa ngai ndimbola na yango. »

7 They answered againe, and sayde, Let the King shewe his seruantes the dreame, and wee will declare the interpretation thereof.

Bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto balobaki lisusu epai ya mokonzi: — Tika ete mokonzi ayebisa ndoto na ye, mpe biso, tokolimbolela ye yango!

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.

Mokonzi azongisaki: — Nandimi solo ete bozali kolekisa tango, pamba te boyebi malamu ete nakobongola mokano na ngai te.

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.

Soki boyebisi ngai ndoto yango te, boyeba malamu ete etumbu moko kaka mpe ya ndenge moko ezali kozela bino! Ah, boyokani koyebisa ngai makambo ya lokuta mpe ya mabe mpo bokanisi ete makambo ekobongwana! Mpo na yango, boyebisa ngai ndoto yango, mpe nakondima ete bozali na makoki ya kolimbola yango.

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.

Bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto balobaki na mokonzi: — Moto moko te kati na mokili akokoka kosala makambo oyo mokonzi azali kosenga. Mpe mokonzi moko te, ezala azalaki moto monene to moto na nguya, asila kosenga likambo ya boye epai ya banganga-kisi, epai ya bato ya mayele ya mabe mpe epai ya bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto.

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.

Makambo oyo mokonzi azali kosenga ezali pasi makasi, moto moko te akoki koyebisa mokonzi ndoto na ye; ezali kaka banzambe nde bakoki kosala yango mpo ete bavandaka kati na bato te.

12 For this cause the king was angrie and in great furie, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babel.

Mbala moko, mokonzi asilikaki mpe atombokaki makasi; apesaki mitindo ete baboma bato nyonso ya bwanya ya Babiloni.

13 And when sentence was giuen, the wise men were slayne: and they sought Daniel and his fellowes to be put to death.

Boye, sango ya mokano ya koboma bato nyonso ya bwanya epanzanaki, mpe batindaki bato koluka Daniele elongo na baninga na ye mpo ete baboma bango.

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.

Tango Arioki, mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi, abimaki mpo na kokende koboma bato ya bwanya ya Babiloni, Daniele asololaki na ye na bwanya mpe na mayele.

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.

Daniele atunaki Arioki: « Mpo na nini mokonzi azwi mokano ya makasi boye? » Bongo Arioki atalisaki Daniele makambo yango.

16 So Daniel went and desired the king that he woulde giue him leasure and that he woulde shewe the king the interpretation thereof.

Tango Daniele ayokaki bongo, akotaki epai ya mokonzi mpe asengaki ye tango mpo ete akoka kopesa ye ndimbola ya ndoto yango;

17 The Daniel went to his house and shewed the matter to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah his companions,

bongo Daniele azongaki na ndako na ye mpe ayebisaki makambo yango epai ya Anania, Mikaeli mpe Azaria, baninga na ye.

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.

Alobaki na bango ete basenga ngolu mpe mawa ya Nzambe ya Lola na tina na mabombami oyo, mpo ete baboma te ye Daniele, baninga na ye mpe bato mosusu ya bwanya ya Babiloni.

19 Then was the secret reueiled vnto Daniel in a vision by night: therefore Daniel praysed the God of heauen.

Bongo na butu, Daniele azwaki emoniseli oyo elakisaki ye mabombami yango; boye, akumisaki Nzambe ya Lola.

20 And Daniel answered and sayde, The Name of God be praysed for euer and euer: for wisedome and strength are his,

Daniele alobaki: Tika ete Kombo ya Nzambe ekumisama libela na libela! Bwanya mpe nguya ezali ya Ye.

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.

Ezali Ye nde abongolaka tango mpe makambo, alongolaka bakonzi mpe atombolaka bakonzi, apesaka bwanya epai ya bato ya bwanya mpe boyebi epai ya bato ya mayele.

22 Hee discouereth the deepe and secrete things: he knoweth what is in darkenes, and the light dwelleth with him.

Alakisaka makambo ya bozindo mpe ebombama, ayebaka makambo oyo esalemaka na molili, mpe pole ezali kati na Ye.

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.

Oh Nzambe ya batata na ngai, nazali kosanzola mpe kokumisa Yo mpo na bwanya mpe nguya oyo opesi ngai, pamba te oyebisi ngai makambo oyo tosengaki Yo mpe otalisi biso ndoto ya mokonzi.

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.

Sima na yango, Daniele akendeki epai ya Arioki oyo mokonzi apesaki mokumba ya koboma bato ya bwanya ya Babiloni; alobaki na ye: — Koboma bato ya bwanya ya Babiloni te! Mema ngai epai ya mokonzi, mpe nakopesa ye ndimbola ya ndoto na ye.

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.

Arioki amemaki Daniele na lombangu liboso ya mokonzi mpe alobaki na ye: — Mokonzi, namoni moto moko kati na bawumbu oyo bawutaki na Yuda, oyo akoki koyebisa mokonzi ndoto na ye mpe kolimbola yango.

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?

Mokonzi atunaki Daniele oyo bazalaki lisusu kobenga Belitsatsari: — Ozali na makoki ya koyebisa ngai makambo oyo namonaki na ndoto mpe kolimbola yango?

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.

Daniele azongisaki liboso ya mokonzi: — Bato ya bwanya, bato ya mayele ya mabe, banganga-kisi mpe bato oyo bayebaka makambo oyo ekoya bazali na makoki te ya koyebisa mokonzi mabombami oyo azali kotuna;

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.

kasi kati na Lola, ezali na Nzambe moko oyo alakisaka mabombami; mpe alakisi mokonzi Nabukodonozori makambo oyo ekosalema na mikolo oyo ekoya. Tala ndoto oyo olotaki mpe bimoniseli oyo ozwaki tango ozalaki ya kolala na mbeto na yo:

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.

« Oh mokonzi, wana ozalaki ya kolala na mbeto na yo, okomaki kokanisa makambo oyo ekoya na sima ya tango; bongo, Ye oyo alakisaka mabombami alakisaki yo makambo oyo ekoya.

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.

Bongo soki alakisi mabombami yango epai na ngai, ezali te mpo ete naleki bato nyonso na bwanya, kasi ezali mpo ete mokonzi ayeba ndimbola ya ndoto na ye mpe makambo oyo ezali kotungisa motema na ye.

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.

Oh mokonzi, tala emoniseli oyo ozwaki: ‹ Ekeko moko ya monene ezalaki liboso na yo: ezalaki monene penza, ezalaki kongenga makasi mpe ezalaki somo mpo na kotala;

32 This images head was of fine golde, his breast and his armes of siluer, his bellie and his thighs of brasse,

moto na yango ezalaki ya wolo ya peto, tolo mpe maboko na yango ezalaki ya palata, libumu mpe loketo na yango ezalaki ya bronze,

33 His legges of yron, and his feete were part of yron, and part of clay.

makolo na yango ezalaki ya ebende, matambe na yango ezalaki, ndambo moko ya ebende, mpe ndambo mosusu, ya mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko.

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.

Wana ozalaki kotala ekeko yango, libanga moko ekweyaki yango moko (moto moko te abwakaki yango), ekweyelaki ekeko yango na matambe na yango ya ebende mpe ya mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko, enikaki matambe yango mpe ekomaki putulu.

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.

Mbala moko, ezala ebende to mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko to bronze to palata to mpe wolo, nyonso epanzanaki, ekomaki mike-mike mpe ekomaki kopumbwa ndenge matiti ya ble epumbwaka tango bapupolaka yango; mopepe ememaki yango mpe elimwisaki yango. Kasi libanga oyo ekweyelaki ekeko yango ekomaki ngomba moko ya monene oyo etondisaki mokili mobimba. › »

36 This is the dreame, and we will declare before the King the interpretation thereof.

Wana nde ezalaki ndoto; mpe sik’oyo, tokopesa ndimbola na yango liboso ya mokonzi!

37 O King, thou art a king of Kings: for the God of heauen hath giuen thee a kingdome, power, and strength, and glorie.

Oh mokonzi, ozali mokonzi ya bakonzi! Nzambe ya Lola apesaki yo makasi mpe nguya, bokonzi mpe nkembo;

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.

atiaki na se ya bokonzi na yo bato nyonso ya mokili, banyama ya zamba mpe bandeke ya likolo; atiaki yo mokonzi na bango nyonso, na bisika nyonso oyo bavandaka! Ezali yo nde ozali moto wana ya wolo.

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.

Sima na yo, bokonzi mosusu ekobima, kasi ekoleka bokonzi na yo te na nguya; bongo na sima, bokonzi ya misato ekobima mpe ekokonza na mabele mobimba: yango nde ezali kolakisa bronze.

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.

Mpe na suka, bokonzi ya minei ekobima, ekozala makasi lokola ebende; ndenge ebende ebukaka, enikaka mpe epanzaka nyonso, ndenge wana mpe ekobuka mpe ekopanza babokonzi mosusu ya liboso.

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.

Mpe ndenge kaka omonaki ete matambe mpe misapi ya makolo na yango ezali ndambo moko, ya mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko, mpe ndambo mosusu, ya ebende, elingi koloba ete bokonzi yango ekokabwana; kasi kati na yango, ekozala na eloko moko ya makasi lokola ebende, ndenge kaka omonaki ebende basangisa na mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko.

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.

Mpe lokola misapi ya makolo ezalaki ndambo, ya ebende, mpe ndambo mosusu, ya mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko, bokonzi yango ekozala, ngambo moko, makasi, mpe ngambo mosusu, ezanga makasi.

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.

Mpe ndenge kaka omonaki ebende basangisa na mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko, elakisi ete bato bakoluka kosangana na nzela ya boyokani, kasi bakotikala kosangana te, ndenge kaka ebende esanganaka te na mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko.

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.

Na tango ya bakonzi wana, Nzambe ya Lola akobimisa bokonzi moko oyo ekotikala kobebisama te mpe ekotikala kozala te na se ya bokonzi ya ekolo mosusu; ekopanza mpe ekosukisa babokonzi wana nyonso, kasi yango moko ekowumela seko na seko.

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.

Yango nde ndimbola ya emoniseli ya libanga oyo omonaki kokweya yango moko wuta na ngomba, oyo loboko ya moto moko te ebwakaki, mpo na koya kopanza ebende, bronze, mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko, palata mpe wolo. Nzambe Monene alakisi mokonzi makambo oyo ekosalema na mikolo ekoya. Ndoto oyo ezali penza kolakisa makambo ya solo, mpe ndimbola na yango ezali ebongi na kondima.

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.

Boye, mokonzi Nabukodonozori agumbamaki elongi kino na mabele, liboso ya Daniele, mpe apesaki ye lokumu; apesaki mitindo ete bapesa ye makabo mpe babonzela ye malasi ya ansa.

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.

Mokonzi alobaki na Daniele: « Solo, Nzambe na bino azali Nzambe ya banzambe, Nkolo ya bakonzi mpe Molakisi mabombami, mpo ete okoki kolakisa mabombami oyo! »

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.

Sima, mokonzi atombolaki Daniele na lokumu oyo eleki likolo mpe apesaki ye bakado mpe bozwi ebele; akomisaki ye moyangeli ya etuka mobimba ya Babiloni mpe mokambi ya bato na yango nyonso ya bwanya.

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.

Daniele asengaki na mokonzi Nabukodonozori ete atia Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego lokola bayangeli ya etuka mobimba ya Babiloni wana ye moko Daniele atikalaki kosala pembeni ya mokonzi.
