Daniel 3
1 Nebuchad-nezzar the King made an image of gold, whose height was three score cubits, and the breadth thereof sixe cubites: hee set it vp in the plaine of Dura, in the prouince of Babel.
| ثُمَّ صَنَعَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ تِمْثَالاً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، ارْتِفَاعُهُ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ ثَلاثِينَ مِتْراً)، وَعَرْضُهُ سِتُّ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَمْتَارٍ)، وَنَصَبَهُ فِي سَهْلِ دُورَا فِي وِلايَةِ بَابِلَ. | ١ |
2 Then Nebuchad-nezzar ye King sent foorth to gather together the nobles, the princes and the dukes, the iudges, the receiuers, the counsellers, the officers, and all the gouernours of the prouinces, that they should come to the dedication of the image, which Nebuchad-nezzar the King had set vp.
| وَاسْتَدْعَى نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ الْمَلِكُ جَمِيعَ أَقْطَابِ الدَّوْلَةِ وَوُلاتِهَا وَحُكَّامِهَا وَقُضَاتِهَا وَأُمَنَاءِ خَزَائِنِهَا وَمُسْتَشَارِيهَا، وَسَائِرَ كِبَارِ مُوَظَّفِي الأَقَالِيمِ، لِيَأْتُوا لِلاشْتِرَاكِ فِي تَدْشِينِ التِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ. | ٢ |
3 So the nobles, princes and dukes, the iudges, the receiuers, the counsellers, the officers, and all the gouernours of the prouinces were assembled vnto the dedicating of the image, that Nebuchad-nezzar the King had set vp: and they stood before the image, which Nebuchad-nezzar had set vp.
| فَاجْتَمَعَ الأَقْطَابُ وَالْحُكَّامُ وَالْقُضَاةُ وَأُمَنَاءُ الْخَزَائِنِ وَالْمُسْتَشَارُونَ وَسَائِرُ عُظَمَاءِ الأَقَالِيمِ لِتَدْشِينِ التِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ وَمَثَلُوا أَمَامَهُ. | ٣ |
4 Then an herald cried aloude, Be it knowen to you, O people, nations, and languages,
| وَصَاحَ مُنَادٍ بِصَوْتٍ عَالٍ: «أَيُّهَا الشُّعُوبُ وَالأُمَمُ مِنْ كُلِّ لُغَةٍ وَلِسَانٍ، قَدْ صَدَرَ لَكُمْ أَمْرٌ | ٤ |
5 That when ye heare the sound of the cornet, trumpet, harpe, sackebut, psalterie, dulcimer, and all instruments of musike, ye fall downe and worship the golden image, that Nebuchad-nezzar the King hath set vp,
| أَنَّكُمْ حِينَ تَسْمَعُونَ أَصْوَاتَ بُوقِ الْقَرْنِ وَالنَّايِ وَالْعُودِ وَالرَّبَابِ وَالْقِيثَارَةِ الْمُثَلَّثَةِ وَالْمِزْمَارِ وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ الْمُوسِيقَى، تَنْحَنُونَ وَتَسْجُدُونَ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ الْمَلِكُ. | ٥ |
6 And whosoeuer falleth not downe and worshippeth, shall the same houre bee cast into the middes of an hote fierie fornace.
| وَكُلُّ مَنْ لَا يَنْحَنِي وَيَسْجُدُ، يُلْقَى فَوْراً فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ». | ٦ |
7 Therefore assoone as all the people heard the sound of the cornet, trumpet, harpe, sackebut, psalterie, and all instruments of musike, all the people, nations, and languages fell downe, and worshipped the golden image, that Nebuchad-nezzar the King had set vp.
| لِهَذَا حَالَمَا سَمِعَتِ الشُّعُوبُ الْحَاضِرَةُ أَصْوَاتَ تِلْكَ الالاتِ الْمُوسِيقِيَّةِ الْمُخْتَلِفَةِ، انْحَنَتْ وَسَجَدَتْ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الْمَنْصُوبِ. | ٧ |
8 By reason whereof at that same time came men of the Caldeans, and grieuously accused the Iewes.
| غَيْرَ أَنَّ بَعْضاً مِنْ رِجَالِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ تَقَدَّمُوا إِلَى الْمَلِكِ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ وَاشْتَكَوْا عَلَى الْيَهُودِ | ٨ |
9 For they spake and said to the King Nebuchad-nezzar, O King, liue for euer.
| قَائِلِينَ: «لِتَعِشْ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٩ |
10 Thou, O King, hast made a decree, that euery man that shall heare the sounde of the cornet, trumpet, harpe, sackebut, psalterie, and dulcimer, and all instruments of musike, shall fall downe and worship the golden image,
| لَقَدْ أَصْدَرْتَ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ أَمْراً أَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ أَصْوَاتَ بُوقِ الْقَرْنِ وَالنَّايِ وَالْعُودِ وَالرَّبَابِ وَالْقِيثَارَةِ الْمُثَلَّثَةِ وَالْمِزْمَارِ، وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ الْمُوسِيقَى، يَنْحَنِي وَيَسْجُدُ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ. | ١٠ |
11 And whosoeuer falleth not downe, and worshippeth, that he should be cast into the mids of an hote fierie fornace.
| وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَأْبَى يُلْقَى فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ. | ١١ |
12 There are certeine Iewes whome thou hast set ouer the charge of ye prouince of Babel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: these men, O King, haue not regarded thy commandement, neither wil they serue thy gods, nor worship the golden image, that thou hast set vp.
| وَهَا هُنَا رِجَالٌ يَهُودٌ مِمَّنْ وَلَّيْتَهُمْ عَلَى أَعْمَالِ إِقْلِيمِ بَابِلَ، هُمْ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو لَمْ يَأْبَهُوا لَكَ، وَلَمْ يَعْبُدُوا آلِهَتَكَ، وَلَمْ يَسْجُدُوا لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتَهُ». | ١٢ |
13 Then Nebuchad-nezzar in his anger and wrath commanded that they should bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: so these men were brought before the King.
| حِينَئِذٍ أَمَرَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ بِاحْتِدَامِ غَضَبٍ وَغَيْظٍ أَنْ يُؤْتَى بِشَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو فَأَحْضَرُوهُمْ أَمَامَ الْمَلِكِ. | ١٣ |
14 And Nebuchad-nezzar spake, and said vnto them, What disorder? will not you, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego serue my god, nor worship the golden image, that I haue set vp?
| وَقَالَ لَهُمْ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ: «أَحَقّاً يَا شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو أَنَّكُمْ لَا تَعْبُدُونَ آلِهَتِي وَلا تَسْجُدُونَ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتُهُ؟ | ١٤ |
15 Now therefore are ye ready when ye heare the sound of the cornet, trumpet, harpe, sackebut, psalterie, and dulcimer, and all instruments of musike, to fall downe, and worship the image, which I haue made? for if ye worship it not, ye shall be cast immediatly into the middes of an hote fierie fornace: for who is that God, that can deliuer you out of mine handes?
| وَالآنَ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُسْتَعِدِّينَ لَدَى سَمَاعِكُمْ صَوْتَ الالاتِ الْمُوسِيقِيَّةِ الْمُخْتَلِفَةِ أَنْ تَنْحَنُوا وَتَسْجُدُوا لِلتِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي صَنَعْتُهُ، أَعْفُو عَنْكُمْ. وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَبَيْتُمُ السُّجُودَ، تُطْرَحُونَ فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. وَأَيُّ إِلَهٍ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُنْقِذَكُمْ عِنْدَئِذٍ مِنْ يَدَيَّ؟» | ١٥ |
16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered and said to the King, O Nebuchad-nezzar, we are not carefull to answere thee in this matter.
| فَأَجَابَهُ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو: «لا دَاعِيَ لأَنْ نُجِيبَكَ عَنْ هَذَا الشَّأْنِ | ١٦ |
17 Beholde, our God whom we serue, is able to deliuer vs from the hote fierie fornace, and hee will deliuer vs out of thine hand, O King.
| لأَنَّ إِلَهَنَا الَّذِي نَعْبُدُهُ قَادِرٌ أَنْ يُنَجِّيَنَا مِنْ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ، وَأَنْ يُنْقِذَنَا مِنْ يَدِكَ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ. | ١٧ |
18 But if not, bee it knowen to thee, O King, that wee will not serue thy gods, nor worship the golden image, which thou hast set vp.
| وَحَتَّى إِنْ لَمْ يُنْقِذْنَا، فَاعْلَمْ يَقِيناً أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ أَنَّنَا لَا نَعْبُدُ آلِهَتَكَ، وَلا نَسْجُدُ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتَهُ». | ١٨ |
19 Then was Nebuchad-nezzar full of rage, and the forme of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore hee charged and commanded that they should heate the fornace at once seuen times more then it was wont to be heat.
| فَاسْتَشَاطَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ حَنَقاً وَاكْفَهَرَّ وَجْهُهُ غَضَباً عَلَى شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، وَأَمَرَ أَنْ يُضْرِمُوا الأَتُونَ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ عَمَّا كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْعَادَةُ. | ١٩ |
20 And hee charged the most valiant men of warre that were in his armie, to binde Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the hote fierie fornace.
| وَطَلَبَ مِنْ بَعْضِ رِجَالِ جَيْشِهِ الشُّجْعَانِ أَنْ يُوْثِقُوا شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو وَيَطْرَحُوهُمْ فِي أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢٠ |
21 So these men were bounde in their coates, their hosen, and their clokes, with their other garments, and cast into the middes of the hote fierie fornace.
| حِينَئِذٍ أُوْثِقَ الرِّجَالُ بِمَا عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ ثِيَابٍ وَسَرَاوِيلَ وَأَقْمِصَةٍ وَأَرْدِيَةٍ، وَطُرِحُوا فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢١ |
22 Therefore, because the Kings commandement was straite, that the fornace should be exceeding hote, the flame of the fire slew those men that brought foorth Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.
| وَإِذْ كَانَ أَمْرُ الْمَلِكِ صَارِماً وَالأَتُونُ قَدْ أُضْرِمَ أَشَدَّ إِضْرَامٍ، فَإِنَّ لَهِيبَ النَّارِ أَحْرَقَ الرِّجَالَ الَّذِينَ حَمَلُوا شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، وَطَرَحُوهُمْ فِي النَّارِ. | ٢٢ |
23 And these three men Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego fell downe bound into the middes of the hote fierie fornace.
| فَسَقَطَ هَؤُلاءِ الرِّجَالُ الثَّلاثَةُ مُوْثَقِينَ وَسَطَ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢٣ |
24 Then Nebuchad-nezzar the King was astonied and rose vp in haste, and spake, and saide vnto his counsellers, Did not wee cast three men bound into the middes of the fire? Who answered and said vnto the King, It is true, O King.
| وَمَا لَبِثَتِ الْحَيْرَةُ أَنِ اعْتَرَتْ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ، فَهَبَّ مُسْرِعاً وَقَالَ لِمُشِيرِيهِ: «أَلَمْ نَطْرَحْ ثَلاثَةَ رِجَالٍ مُوْثَقِينَ فِي وَسَطِ النَّارِ؟» فَأَجَابُوا: «صَحِيحٌ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ». | ٢٤ |
25 And he answered, and said, Loe, I see foure men loose, walking in the middes of the fire, and they haue no hurt, and the forme of the fourth is like the sonne of God.
| فَقَالَ: «إِنِّي أَرَى أَرْبَعَةَ رِجَالٍ طَلِيقِينَ يَتَمَشَّوْنَ فِي وَسَطِ النَّارِ، لَمْ يَنَلْهُمْ أَذىً، وَمَنْظَرُ الرَّابِعِ شَبِيهٌ بِابْنِ الآلِهَةِ». | ٢٥ |
26 Then the King Nebuchad-nezzar came neere to the mouth of the hote fierie fornace, and spake and said, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, the seruants of the hie God goe foorth and come hither: so Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego came foorth of the middes of the fire.
| ثُمَّ دَنَا نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ مِنْ بَابِ الأَتُونِ الْمُتَّقِدِ بِالنَّارِ وَهَتَفَ: «يَا شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو يَا عَبِيدَ اللهِ الْعَلِيِّ، اخْرُجُوا وَتَعَالَوْا». فَخَرَجَ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو مِنْ وَسَطِ النَّارِ. | ٢٦ |
27 Then the nobles, princes and dukes, and the Kings counsellers came together to see these men, because the fire had no power ouer their bodies: for not an heare of their head was burnt, neither was their coates changed, nor any smelll of fire came vpon them.
| فَأَحَاطَ الأَقْطَابُ وَالْوُلاةُ وَالْحُكَّامُ وَعُظَمَاءُ الدَّوْلَةِ بِهِمْ، فَوَجَدُوا أَنَّ النَّارَ لَمْ تُؤْذِ أَجْسَامَهُمْ، وَلَمْ تَحْتَرِقْ شَعْرَةٌ مِنْ رُؤُوسِهِمْ، وَلَمْ تَشِطْ ثِيَابُهُمْ، وَلَمْ تَعْلَقْ بِهِمْ رَائِحَةُ النَّارِ. | ٢٧ |
28 Wherefore Nebuchad-nezzar spake and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who hath sent his Angel, and deliuered his seruants, that put their trust in him, and haue changed the Kings commandement, and yeelded their bodies rather then they would serue or worship any god, saue their owne God.
| فَقَالَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ: «تَبَارَكَ إِلَهُ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ مَلاكَهُ وَأَنْقَذَ عَبِيدَهُ الَّذِينَ اتَّكَلُوا عَلَيْهِ وَخَالَفُوا أَمْرَ الْمَلِكِ وَبَذَلُوا أَجْسَادَهُمْ كَيْ لا يَعْبُدُوا أَوْ يَسْجُدُوا لإِلَهٍ غَيْرِ إِلَهِهِمْ. | ٢٨ |
29 Therefore I make a decree, that euery people, nation, and language, which speake any blasphemie against the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, shalbe drawen in pieces, and their houses shall be made a iakes, because there is no god that can deliuer after this sort.
| لِهَذَا قَدْ صَدَرَ مِنِّي أَمْرٌ أَنَّ أَيَّ شَعْبٍ أَوْ أُمَّةٍ أَوْ قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَيِّ لِسَانٍ يَذُمُّونَ إِلَهَ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، يُمَزَّقُونَ إِرْباً إِرْباً، وَتُصْبِحُ بُيُوتُهُمْ أَنْقَاضاً، إِذْ لَيْسَ هُنَاكَ إِلَهٌ آخَرُ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُنَجِّيَ مِثْلَهُ». | ٢٩ |
30 Then the King promoted Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the prouince of Babel.
| ثُمَّ رَفَعَ الْمَلِكُ مِنْ شَأْنِ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو فِي وِلايَةِ بَابِلَ. | ٣٠ |
