Daniel 4
1 Nebuchad-nezzar King vnto all people, nations and languages, that dwell in all the world, Peace be multiplied vnto you:
Nebukadnessari ọba, sí gbogbo ènìyàn, orílẹ̀ àti onírúurú èdè, tí ó ń gbé ní àgbáyé. Kí àlàáfíà máa pọ̀ sí i fún un yín. Kí ẹ ṣe rere tó pọ̀!
2 I thought it good to declare the signes and wonders, that the hie God hath wrought toward me.
Ó jẹ́ ìdùnnú fún mi láti fi iṣẹ́ àmì àti ìyanu tí Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-Ògo ti ṣe fún mi hàn.
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.
Báwo ni àmì rẹ̀ ti tóbi tó,
4 I Nebuchad-nezzar being at rest in mine house, and flourishing in my palace,
Èmi Nebukadnessari wà ní ààfin mi, pẹ̀lú ìtẹ́lọ́rùn àti àlàáfíà.
5 Saw a dreame, which made me afraide, and the thoughtes vpon my bed, and the visions of mine head troubled me.
Mo lá àlá kan èyí tí ó bà mí lẹ́rù. Nígbà tí mo wà lórí ibùsùn mi, ìran tí ó jáde lọ́kàn mi dẹ́rùbà mí.
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.
Nígbà náà, ni mo pàṣẹ pé kí a mú gbogbo àwọn amòye Babeli wá, kí wọn wá sọ ìtumọ̀ àlá náà fún mi.
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,
Nígbà tí àwọn apidán, àwọn apògèdè, àwọn awòràwọ̀ àti àwọn aláfọ̀ṣẹ wá, mo sọ àlá náà fún wọn, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò le è sọ ìtumọ̀ àlá náà fún mi.
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,
Ní ìkẹyìn Daniẹli wá síwájú mi, mo sì sọ àlá náà fún. (Ẹni tí à ń pè ní Belṣassari gẹ́gẹ́ bí orúkọ òrìṣà mi àti pé ẹ̀mí àwọn ọlọ́run mímọ́ wà nínú rẹ̀.)
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.
Mo wí pé, “Belṣassari, olórí àwọn amòye, èmi mọ̀ wí pé ẹ̀mí ọlọ́run mímọ́ wà nínú rẹ, kò sì ṣí àṣírí kan tí ó ṣòro jù fún ọ. Sọ àlá mi kí o sì túmọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi.
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:
Èyí ni ìran náà tí mo rí nígbà tí mo wà lórí ibùsùn mi, mo rí igi kan láàrín ayé, igi náà ga gidigidi.
11 A great tree and strong, and the height thereof reached vnto heauen, and the sight thereof to the endes of all the earth.
Igi náà tóbi, ó sì lágbára, orí rẹ̀ sì ń kan ọ̀run; a sì rí i títí dé òpin ayé.
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.
Ewé rẹ̀ lẹ́wà, èso rẹ̀ sì pọ̀, ó sì ń pèsè oúnjẹ fún gbogbo ènìyàn. Abẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ ni àwọn ẹranko igbó fi ṣe ibùgbé, àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run sì ń gbé ní ẹ̀ka rẹ̀, nínú rẹ̀ ni gbogbo alààyè ti ń jẹ.
13 I sawe in the visions of mine head vpon my bed, and beholde, a watchman and an holy one came downe from heauen,
“Lórí ibùsùn mi, mo rí ìran náà, olùṣọ́ kan dúró síwájú u mi, àní ẹni mímọ́ kan, ó ń bọ̀ wá láti ọ̀run
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.
ó kígbe sókè wí pé, ‘Gé igi náà kí o sì gé àwọn ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ kúrò; gbọn ewé rẹ̀ ká, kí o sì fọ́n èso rẹ̀ dànù. Jẹ́ kí àwọn ẹranko tí ó wà lábẹ́ rẹ̀ sá àti àwọn ẹyẹ tí ó wà ní ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ kúrò.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n fi kùkùté àti gbòǹgbò rẹ̀ tí a fi irin àti idẹ dè ṣẹ́kù sórí ilẹ̀ àti sí orí koríko igbó. “‘Jẹ́ kí ìrì ọ̀run sẹ̀ sí i lára, kí ó sì jẹ́ kí ìpín in rẹ̀ wà pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹranko igbó láàrín ilẹ̀ ayé.
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.
Jẹ́ kí ọkàn rẹ̀ kí ó yí padà kúrò ní ti ènìyàn, kí a sì fún un ní ọkàn ẹranko, títí ìgbà méje yóò fi kọjá lórí i rẹ̀.
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.
“‘Olùṣọ́ ni ó gbé ìpinnu náà jáde, àṣẹ sì wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni mímọ́, kí gbogbo alààyè le mọ̀ wí pé, Ọ̀gá-ògo ni olórí ìjọba ènìyàn, ó sì ń fi fún ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó wù ú, òun sì ń gbé onírẹ̀lẹ̀ lórí i wọn.’
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.
“Èyí ni àlá tí èmi Nebukadnessari ọba lá. Ní ìsinsin yìí ìwọ Belṣassari, sọ ohun tí ó túmọ̀ sí fún mi, nítorí kò sí amòye kan ní ìjọba mi, tí ó lè sọ ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi. Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ lè sọ ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀, nítorí tí ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run mímọ́ wà ní inú rẹ.”
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.
Nígbà náà ni Daniẹli (ẹni tí à ń pè ní Belṣassari) páyà gidigidi fún ìgbà díẹ̀, èrò inú rẹ̀ sì bà á lẹ́rù. Nígbà náà ni ọba wí pé, “Belṣassari, má ṣe jẹ́ kí àlá náà tàbí ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ kí ó dẹ́rùbà ọ́.” Belṣassari sì dáhùn wí pé, “Olúwa mi, kí àlá yìí jẹ́ ti àwọn ọ̀tá a rẹ, kí ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ sì jẹ́ ti àwọn aṣòdì sí.
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,
Igi tí ìwọ rí, tí ó dàgbà, tí ó sì lágbára, tí orí rẹ̀ sì ń kan ọ̀run, tí ó lẹ́wà àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ èso, tí ó ń pèsè oúnjẹ fún gbogbo ènìyàn, tí ó ṣe ààbò lórí ẹranko igbó àti èyí tí ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ pèsè ààyè fún ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run.
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,
Èyí tí ewé e rẹ̀ lẹ́wà, tí èso rẹ̀ si pọ̀, nínú èyí tí oúnjẹ sì wà fún gbogbo ẹ̀dá, lábẹ́ èyí tí àwọn ẹranko igbó ń gbé, lórí ẹ̀ka èyí ti àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run ní ibùgbé wọn.
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.
Ìwọ ọba ni igi náà, ìwọ ti dàgbà, o sì lágbára, títóbi i rẹ ga ó sì kan ọ̀run, ìjọba rẹ sì gbilẹ̀ títí dé òpin ayé.
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,
“Ìwọ ọba, rí ìránṣẹ́ ẹni mímọ́ kan, tí ó ń bọ̀ láti ọ̀run ó sì sọ pé, ‘Gé igi náà kí o sì run ún, ṣùgbọ́n fi kùkùté rẹ tí a dè pẹ̀lú irin àti idẹ sílẹ̀ nínú koríko igbó, nígbà tí gbòǹgbò rẹ̀ sì wà nínú ilẹ̀ kí o sì jẹ́ kí ìrì ọ̀run sẹ̀ sórí i rẹ̀, jẹ́ kí ìpín in rẹ̀ wà láàrín ẹranko búburú títí ìgbà méje yóò fi kọjá lórí i rẹ̀.’
24 This is the interpretation, O King, and it is the decree of the most High, which is come vpon my lord the King,
“Èyí ni ìtumọ̀ àlá rẹ ọba àti àṣẹ tí Ọ̀gá-ògo mú wá sórí ọba olúwa mi.
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.
A ó lé ọ jáde kúrò láàrín ènìyàn, ìwọ yóò sì máa gbé láàrín ẹranko búburú, ìwọ yóò jẹ koríko bí i màlúù, ìrì ọ̀run yóò sì sẹ̀ sára rẹ. Ìgbà méje yóò sì kọjá lórí rẹ, títí ìwọ yóò fi mọ̀ wí pé Ọ̀gá-ògo ń jẹ ọba lórí ìjọba ènìyàn, ó sì ń fi fún ẹni tí ó bá wù ú.
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.
Bí wọ́n ṣe pàṣẹ pé kí wọn fi kùkùté àti gbòǹgbò igi náà sílẹ̀, èyí túmọ̀ sí wí pé a ó dá ìjọba rẹ padà fún ọ lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí o bá ti mọ̀ wí pé, Ọ̀run jẹ ọba.
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.
Nítorí náà ọba, jẹ́ kí ìmọ̀ràn mi jẹ́ ìtẹ́wọ́gbà fún ọ, kọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ sílẹ̀ kí o sì ṣe rere, àti ìwà búburú rẹ nípa ṣíṣe àánú fún àwọn tálákà. Ó lè jẹ́ pé nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò ṣe rere.”
28 All these things shall come vpon the King Nebuchad-nezzar.
Gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí ṣẹlẹ̀ sí Nebukadnessari ọba.
29 At the end of twelue moneths, he walked in the royall palace of Babel.
Lẹ́yìn oṣù kejìlá, bí ọba ṣe ń rìn káàkiri lórí òrùlé ààfin ìjọba Babeli,
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?
ó sọ pé, “Èyí ha kọ́ ni Babeli ńlá tí mo kọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilé ọba, nípa agbára à mi àti fún ògo ọláńlá à mi?”
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,
Bí ọba ṣe ń sọ ọ̀rọ̀ náà lọ́wọ́ ohùn kan wá láti ọ̀run, “Ìwọ Nebukadnessari ọba, ìwọ ni a ti pàṣẹ nípa rẹ̀, a ti gba ìjọba à rẹ kúrò ní ọwọ́ ọ̀ rẹ.
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.
A ó lé ọ kúrò láàrín àwọn ènìyàn, ìwọ yóò sì lọ máa gbé àárín àwọn ẹranko igbó; ìwọ yóò jẹ koríko bí i màlúù, ìgbà méje yóò kọjá lórí i rẹ títí ìwọ yóò fi mọ̀ wí pé, Ọ̀gá-ògo jẹ ọba lórí ìjọba ènìyàn àti pé ó ń fi fún ẹni tí ó bá wù ú.”
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.
Lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀ ni ohun tí a sọ nípa Nebukadnessari ṣẹlẹ̀ sí i. A lé e kúrò láàrín ènìyàn, ó sì ń jẹ koríko bí i màlúù, ìrì ọ̀run sì ń sẹ̀ sí ara rẹ̀, títí irun orí rẹ̀ fi gùn bí i ti ìyẹ́ ẹyẹ idì, tí èékánná rẹ̀ sì dàbí i ti ẹyẹ.
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.
Ní òpin ìgbà náà, èmi, Nebukadnessari gbé ojú mi sókè sí ọ̀run, iyè mi sì sọjí. Mo fi ọpẹ́ fún Ọ̀gá-ògo; mo fi ọlá àti ògo fún ẹni tí ó wà láéláé.
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?
Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ayé
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.
Ní àkókò kan náà, iyè mi padà, ọlá àti ògo dídán mi padà tọ̀ mí wá fún ògo ìjọba mi. Àwọn ìgbìmọ̀ àti àwọn ọlọ́lá mi, wá mi rí, wọ́n sì dá mi padà sórí ìjọba mi, mo sì di alágbára ju ti ìṣáájú lọ.
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.
Báyìí, èmi, Nebukadnessari fi ọpẹ́, mo sì gbé Ọlọ́run ga, mo sì fi ògo fún ọba ọ̀run, nítorí pé gbogbo nǹkan tí ó ṣe ló dára, gbogbo ọ̀nà rẹ̀ sì tọ́. Gbogbo àwọn tó sì ń rìn ní ìgbéraga ni ó le rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
