< Daniel 4 >
1 Nebuchad-nezzar King vnto all people, nations and languages, that dwell in all the world, Peace be multiplied vnto you:
Kai Nebukhadnezar ni lawk na patawn awh. Talaivan kho tangkuem kaawm e miphun cawngca hoi lawk cawngca kapan e taminaw nangmouh koe lungmawngnae pungdaw seh.
2 I thought it good to declare the signes and wonders, that the hie God hath wrought toward me.
Lathueng poung lah kaawm e Cathut ni kai dawk a sak e kângairu hno hoi mitnoutnae naw hah kamnue sak hanelah ka ngai.
3 How great are his signes, and how mightie are his wonders! his kingdome is an euerlasting kingdome, and his dominion is from generation to generation.
Mitnout teh a len tangngak. Athaonae teh kângairu han lah ao tangngak. A uknaeram teh catounawtoun totouh kangning e lah ao.
4 I Nebuchad-nezzar being at rest in mine house, and flourishing in my palace,
Kai Nebukhadnezar teh kama e siangpahrang im dawk tawnta bawirengnae hoi ka o navah,
5 Saw a dreame, which made me afraide, and the thoughtes vpon my bed, and the visions of mine head troubled me.
takikathopounge mang ka mang e hah ikhun dawk ka yannae koehoi ka pouk navah, ka taki toungloung.
6 Therefore made I a decree, that they should bring all the wise men of Babel before mee, that they might declare vnto me the interpretation of the dreame.
Hatdawkvah ka mang leh hanelah Babilon ram e a lungkaang e pueng ka hmalah koung thokhai awh titeh ka pathang.
7 So came the inchanters, the astrologians, the Caldeans and the sothsayers, to whom I tolde the dreame, but they could not shew me the interpretation thereof,
Hatnavah, mitpaleikathoumnaw, kutkhetkathoumnaw, Babilon kacangkhaikungnaw, hoi Khaldeannaw pueng a tho awh teh, ka mang hah ka dei pouh. Hatei, ahnimanaw ni ka mang hah let thai awh hoeh.
8 Till at the last Daniel came before mee, (whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, which hath the spirite of the holy gods in him) and before him I tolde the dreame, saying,
A hnukkhu vah, kaie cathut min ka phawt e Belteshazzar telah phung teh, Cathut e kathoung muitha hoi kakawi e Daniel ni kai koe a tho torei teh,
9 O Belteshazzar, chiefe of the enchanters, because I know, that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell mee the visions of my dreame, that I haue seene and the interpretation thereof.
mitpaleikathoumnaw kahrawikung Belteshazzar nang dawk kathounge Cathut Muitha ao tie thoseh, hrolawk kaawm e pueng na pâpho thai e hai thoseh ka panue. Hatdawkvah, mang ka mang e hah na pâpho pouh haw.
10 Thus were the visions of mine head in my bed. And beholde, I sawe a tree in the middes of the earth and the height thereof was great:
Ka ikhun dawk ka yan nah ka hmu e vision teh, talai lungui vah, karasangpoung e thingkung buet touh a kâung.
11 A great tree and strong, and the height thereof reached vnto heauen, and the sight thereof to the endes of all the earth.
Hote thingkung teh a roung teh a thao poung. Kalvan a deng teh, talai van pueng koehoi hmu e thai e lah ao.
12 The boughes thereof were faire and the fruite thereof much, and in it was meate for all: it made a shadow vnder it for the beastes of the fielde, and the foules of the heauen dwelt in the boughes thereof, and all flesh fedde of it.
A hna hai a meihawi. Moithang pueng ni ca khuem hane paw hoi akawi. Talai e saringnaw teh hote thingkung tâhlip dawk a kâhat awh, tavanaw ni a kangnaw dawk a kâhat awh.
13 I sawe in the visions of mine head vpon my bed, and beholde, a watchman and an holy one came downe from heauen,
Ka ikhun dawk ka yan lahun nah ka hmu e vision teh bout ka khet navah, thingkung ka ring e tami kathoung buet touh kalvan hoi a kum.
14 And cried aloude, and said thus, Hew downe the tree, and breake off his branches: shake off his leaues, and scatter his fruite, that the beastes may flee from vnder it, and the foules from his branches.
Thingkung hah tâtueng haw. Akangnaw hah rabat haw. A hna, a pawnaw hah pahroe haw. Saringnaw ni thingkung rahim hoi tâcawt awh naseh. Tavanaw hai akangnaw dawk hoi tâcawt awh naseh.
15 Neuerthelesse leaue the stumpe of his rootes in the earth, and with a band of yron and brasse binde it among the grasse of the fielde, and let it be wet with the dewe of heauen, and let his portion be with the beastes among the grasse of the fielde.
Hateiteh, a tangpha hoi a thongmui teh pâhlung haw. Sumrui, rahum rui hoi pâkhit nateh, hram kanaw um vah awm naseh. Kum sari touh thung khoraum ao vaiteh, saringnaw hoi cungtalah hram cat naseh.
16 Let his heart be changed from mans nature, and let a beasts heart be giuen vnto him, and let seuen times be passed ouer him.
Tami lungthin kahmat naseh. Saring lungthin tawn naseh.
17 The sentence is according to the decree of the watchmen, and according to the word of the holy ones: the demaunde was answered, to the intent that liuing men may knowe, that the most High hath power ouer the kingdome of men, and giueth it to whomsoeuer he will, and appointeth ouer it the most abiect among men.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a Lathueng Poung e Cathut ni talai uknaeram a uk tie thoseh, a poe ngai e tami koe a poe tie hai thoseh, ka rahnoum poung e tami hah a tawm teh ram hah a poe tie hai thoseh, moithangnaw ni a panue thai nahanlah thingkung karingkungnaw ni hettelah a sak awh toe. Tami kathoung naw ni kâ a poe toe telah a ti.
18 This is the dreame, that I King Nebuchad-nezzar haue seene: therefore thou, O Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation thereof: for all the wisemen of my kingdome are not able to shewe mee the interpretation: but thou art able, for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee.
Hottelah Nebukhadnezar siangpahrang ni mang ka mang toe. Nang Belteshazzar ka hmu e mang hah atuvah na deicai pouh haw. Kaie uknaeram dawk e a lungkaangnaw ni decai thai awh hoeh eiteh, nang teh kathounge Cathut Muitha hoi na kawi dawkvah, na pâpho thai telah ka hmu e mang hah Daniel koe ka dei pouh.
19 Then Daniel (whose name was Belteshazzar) held his peace by the space of one houre, and his thoughts troubled him, and the King spake and said, Belteshazzar, let neither the dreame, nor the interpretation thereof trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and saide, My lord, the dreame be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine enemies.
Hat toteh, Belteshazzar telah phung e Daniel teh, suimilam buet touh hane muen a kângai teh a lungpuen. Siangpahrang ni, nang Belteshazzar, mang hoi deingainae dawk na lungpuen sak hanh atipouh. Belteshazzar ni Bawipa, nang na kahmawt ngai hoeh e naw koe mang deingainae teh phat lawiseh.
20 The tree that thou sawest, which was great and mightie, whose height reached vnto the heauen, and the sight thereof through all the world,
Na hmu lahun nah karoung niteh, a tha kaawm poung e, kalvan ka deng niteh, talai van puenghoi hmu thai e,
21 Whose leaues were faire and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meate for all, vnder the which the beastes of the fielde dwelt, and vpon whose branches the foules of the heauen did sit,
a hna hai a meikahawi niteh, moithang pueng ni cakhuem e a paw hoi kakawi e, talai e saringnaw ni a rahim vah ao awh teh, tavanaw ni a kang dawk kâhatnae thingkung hateh,
22 It is thou, O King, that art great and mightie: for thy greatnesse is growen, and reacheth vnto heauen, and thy dominion to the endes of the earth.
Bawipa nang nama roeroe doeh toe. Nang teh na roung, thaonae hoi na kawi. Lentoe tawntanae teh kalvan kadeng lah ao. Kâ na tawnnae teh talai pout totouh a pha.
23 Where as the King sawe a watchman, and an holy one, that came downe from heauen, and said, Hew downe the tree and destroy it, yet leaue the stumpe of the rootes thereof in the earth, and with a bande of yron and brasse binde it among the grasse of the fielde, and let it be wette with the dewe of heauen, and let his portion be with the beastes of the fielde, till seuen times passe ouer him,
Thingkung ka ring e tami kathoung buet touh kalvan hoi ka kum niteh, thingkung hah tâtueng nateh raphoe haw. Hatei a tangpha hoi a thongmui hah pâhlung nateh, sumrui, rahumrui hoi katek nateh, hram kanaw um vah awm naseh. Kum sari touh thung khoraum awm naseh. Talai e saringnaw hoi rei awm naseh tie teh,
24 This is the interpretation, O King, and it is the decree of the most High, which is come vpon my lord the King,
A lathueng poung e Cathut ni siangpahrang nang koe a pha sak e mang deicainae teh,
25 That they shall driue thee from men, and thy dwelling shalbe with the beasts of the fielde: they shall make thee to eate grasse as the oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dewe of heauen: and seuen times shall passe ouer thee, till thou knowe, that the most High beareth rule ouer the kingdome of men, and giueth it to whom so euer he will.
Nang hah tami um hoi na pâlei teh, talai saringnaw hoi reirei na o han. A Lathueng Poung e Cathut ni telah uknaeram hah a uk dawkvah, poe a ngai e taminaw koe a poe e hah na panue hoehnahlan kum sari touh thung maito patetlah hram na ca vaiteh, khoraum na o han.
26 Where as they sayd, that one should leaue the stumpe of the tree rootes, thy kingdome shall remaine vnto thee: after that, thou shalt knowe, that the heauens haue the rule.
Thing tangpha, thingthawngmui a pâhlung e teh, Kalvan ni a uk tie na panue hnukkhu, uknaeram hateh, na kut dawk bout poe lah ao han.
27 Wherefore, O King, let my counsell be acceptable vnto thee, and breake off thy sinnes by righteousnes, and thine iniquities by mercy toward the poore: lo, let there be an healing of thine errour.
Hatdawkvah siangpahrang kaie lawk hah thai haw. Na tawnta e kasaw lah kangning thai nahan, na yonnae hah lannae lah, na hawihoehnae hah roedengnaw pahrennae lah let palang leih telah atipouh.
28 All these things shall come vpon the King Nebuchad-nezzar.
Hote hnopueng Nebukhadnezar siangpahrang koe a phanae kong teh hettelah ao.
29 At the end of twelue moneths, he walked in the royall palace of Babel.
Thapa yung 12 apoutnae dawk siangpahrang teh, Babilon im vah a kâhlai.
30 And the King spake and sayde, Is not this great Babel, that I haue built for the house of the kingdome by the might of my power, and for the honour of my maiestie?
Siangpahrang ni, hete khopui teh, ka ram a kamtuenae, ka bawilen taluenae tawm nahanlah ka bahu hoi ka sak e Babilon khopui nahoehmaw telah a ti.
31 While the worde was in the Kings mouth, a voyce came downe from heauen, saying, O King Nebuchad-nezzar, to thee be it spoken, Thy kingdome is departed from thee,
Hote lawk a dei lahunnah, kalvan hoi ka tho e lawk teh Oe, Nebukhadnezar siangpahrang, thai haw. Na uknaeram teh na kut dawk hoi takhoe lah ao toe.
32 And they shall driue thee from men, and thy dwelling shalbe with the beastes of the fielde: they shall make thee to eate grasse, as the oxen, and seuen times shall passe ouer thee, vntill thou knowest, that the most High beareth rule ouer the kingdome of men, and giueth it vnto whomsoeuer he will.
Nang hah taminaw umsali hoi na pâlei vaiteh, talai saringnaw hoi reirei na o han. A Lathueng Poung ni talai uknaeram hah a uk teh, a poe ngai e tami a poe e hah na panuehoenae tueng, kum sari touh thung maito patetlah hram na ca han telah a ti.
33 The very same houre was this thing fulfilled vpon Nebuchad-nezzar, and hee was driuen from men, and did eate grasse as the oxen, and his body was wet with the dewe of heauen, till his heares were growen as eagles feathers, and his nailes like birds clawes.
Hote lawk patetlah Nebukhadnezar dawk vaitalahoi a tho teh, tami umsali hoi a pâlei awh. Maito patetlah hram a ca teh, khoraum vah ao. A takmuennaw teh mataw rathei patetlah ao teh, a khokpatinnaw teh tava khokpatin patetlah ao pouh.
34 And at the ende of these dayes I Nebuchad-nezzar lift vp mine eyes vnto heauen, and mine vnderstanding was restored vnto me, and I gaue thankes vnto the most High, and I praysed and honoured him that liueth for euer, whose power is an euerlasting power, and his kingdome is from generation to generation.
Atueng akuep toteh, kai Nebukhadnezar teh kalvan lah ka moung navah, bout ka kâpanue teh, a yungyoe kahring e Cathut hah ka pholen, barinae ka poe teh, ka lentoe sak. Kâ tawnnae teh a yungyoe e doeh. A uknaeram teh a yungyoe a kangning.
35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and according to his will he worketh in the armie of heauen, and in the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, nor say vnto him, What doest thou?
Talai tami pueng teh, banghai bang hoeh lah ao awh. Kalvan ransanaw koehai thoseh, talai taminaw koehai thoseh, a ngai e patetlah a sak. Apinihai a kut hah ngang thai awh hoeh. Bangmouh na sak ka tet pouh thai e apihai awm hoeh.
36 At the same time was mine vnderstanding restored vnto me, and I returned to the honour of my kingdome: my glory and my beautie was restored vnto me, and my counsellours and my princes sought vnto me, and I was established in my kingdome, and my glory was augmented toward me.
Hat toteh, ka lungthin amahmoe lah bout ao. Kaie uknaeram bawilennae nahanlah bari onae hoi, raimonae teh kai koe bout a ban. Kho kapoukkungnaw hoi bawinaw ni bout na hnai awh teh, ka uknae casak lah ao teh, puenghoi taluenae hai ahmaloe e hlak hoe a len.
37 Now therefore I Nebuchad-nezzar prayse and extoll and magnifie the King of heauen, whose workes are all trueth, and his wayes iudgement, and those that walke in pride, he is able to abase.
Atuteh, kai Nebukhadnezar ni kalvan siangpahrang hah ka pholen teh, ka tawm teh ka lentoe sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a sak e hno pueng teh a thuem, a lamthung teh a lan. Kâoup laihoi kho ka sak e pueng teh rahim lah a pabo tie hah kho tangkuem a pathang.
