< Daniel 6 >
1 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, who should be throughout the whole kingdom;
Daariyoos akka isaan guutummaa mootummaa isaa keessatti bulchitoota taʼaniif ilmaan moototaa 120 muuduu barbaade;
2 and over them three presidents, of whom Daniel was one; that these satraps might give account unto them, and that the king should have no damage.
innis isaan irratti bulchitoota ol aantota sadii muude; isaan keessaas tokko Daaniʼel ture. Akka mooticha irra rakkinni hin geenyeefis ilmaan moototaa kunneen bulchitoota ol aantota sadan jalatti bulu.
3 Then this Daniel distinguished himself above the presidents and the satraps, because a surpassing spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
Mootichi sababii Daaniʼel ilmaan moototaatii fi bulchitoota ol aantota kaan caalaa dandeettii addaa qabuuf isa jaallatee guutummaa mootummaa irratti isa muuduu barbaade.
4 Then the presidents and the satraps sought to find occasion against Daniel as touching the kingdom; but they could find no occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.
Sababii kanaaf bulchitoonni ol aantonnii fi ilmaan moototaa waan hojii mootummaa ilaaluun Daaniʼelin himachuuf karaa barbaadan; garuu akkas gochuu hin dandeenye. Daaniʼel amanamaa, of eeggataa fi nama mudaa hin qabne waan taʼeef isaan isa irratti dogoggora tokko iyyuu argachuu hin dandeenye.
5 Then said these men: 'We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him in the matter of the law of his God.'
Dhuma irrattis namoonni kunneen, “Yoo waan seera Waaqa isaatiin wal qabatu taʼe malee waan ittiin namicha Daaniʼel jedhamu kana himannu tokko iyyuu hin argannu” jedhan.
6 Then these presidents and satraps came tumultuously to the king, and said thus unto him: 'King Darius, live for ever!
Kanaafuu bulchitoonni ol aantonnii fi ilmaan moototaa tokkummaadhaan mooticha bira dhaqanii akkana jedhan; “Yaa Daariyoos mooticha, bara baraan jiraadhu!
7 All the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects and the satraps, the ministers and the governors, have consulted together that the king should establish a statute, and make a strong interdict, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
Yaa mootii, akka namni hamma bultii soddomaatti si malee Waaqa yookaan nama kam iyyuu kadhatu kam iyyuu boolla leencaatti darbatamu, akka mootichi labsii baasee ajajni isaas cimu bulchitoonni mootummaa, muudamoonni, ilmaan moototaa, gorsitoonnii fi qondaaltonni hundi walii galaniiru.
8 Now, O king, establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.'
Yaa mootii, labsii baasi, akka seera Meedee fi Faares kan hin geeddaramne sanaas mallatteessi.”
9 Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the interdict.
Kanaafuu Daariyoos mootichi labsii sana barreessee baase.
10 And when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house — now his windows were open in his upper chamber toward Jerusalem — and he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.
Daaniʼelis yommuu akka labsiin sun baʼe beeketti kutaa mana isaa kan foddaan isaa gara Yerusaalemitti garagalutti ol baʼe. Innis akkuma yeroo kaan godhu guyyaatti yeroo sadii jilbeenfatee Waaqa isaa kadhate, galatas galcheef.
11 Then these men came tumultuously, and found Daniel making petition and supplication before his God.
Namoonni kunneen gareedhaan dhaqanii Daaniʼelii kadhatuu fi Waaqa isaa gargaarsa gaafatuu argatan.
12 Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king's interdict: 'Hast thou not signed an interdict, that every man that shall make petition unto any god or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?' The king answered and said: 'The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.'
Kanaafuu isaan gara mootichaa dhaqanii, “Yaa mootii, ati akka namni guyyoota soddomman kana keessa si malee Waaqa yookaan nama tokko iyyuu kadhatu kam iyyuu boolla leencaatti darbatamu labsii hin baafnee?” jedhanii waaʼee labsii inni baase sanaa isa gaafatan. Mootichis, “Seerri sun seera akkuma seera Meedeetii fi Faares kan hin geeddaramnee dha” jedhee deebise.
13 Then answered they and said before the king: 'That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the interdict that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day.'
Isaan mootichaan, “Yaa mootii, warra Yihuudaadhaa boojiʼaman keessaa Daaniʼel siifis seera ati baafteefis xiyyeeffannaa hin kennu. Inni ammas guyyaatti yeroo sadii Waaqa isaa kadhata” jedhan.
14 Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore displeased, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him; and he laboured till the going down of the sun to deliver him.
Mootichi yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti akka malee gadde; Daaniʼelin baasuufis murteeffatee hamma biiftuun lixxutti waan dandaʼame hunda godhe.
15 Then these men came tumultuously unto the king, and said unto the king: 'Know, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians, that no interdict nor statute which the king establisheth may be changed.'
Ergasii jarri gareedhaan mootichatti dhiʼaatanii, “Yaa mootii, akka seera Meedeetii fi Faares akka seerri mootiin tokko baase yookaan ajajni inni kenne geeddaramuu hin dandeenye beeki” jedhaniin.
16 Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spoke and said unto Daniel: 'Thy God whom thou servest continually, He will deliver thee.'
Kanaafuu mootichi ajaja kenne; isaanis Daaniʼelin fidanii boolla leencaatti darbatan. Mootichis Daaniʼeliin, “Waaqni kee kan ati yeroo hunda isa tajaajiltu si haa baraaru!” jedhe.
17 And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel.
Dhagaanis fidamee afaan boolla leencaa sanatti qadaadame; mootichis akka wanni Daaniʼel irratti murtaaʼe sun hin geeddaramne chaappaa mallattoo qubeelaa isaatii fi kan qubeelaa qondaaltota isaa irratti chaappesse.
18 Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were diversions brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.
Ergasiis mootichi gara masaraa mootummaa isaatti deebiʼee halkan guutuu utuu waa hin nyaatinii fi gammachuu hin argatin hirriba malee bule.
19 Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto the den of lions.
Barii barraaqaanis mootichi kaʼee gara boolla leencaatti ariifate.
20 And when he came near unto the den to Daniel, he cried with a pained voice; the king spoke and said to Daniel: 'O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions?'
Innis yommuu boolla sanatti dhiʼaatetti sagalee guddaadhaan, “Yaa Daaniʼel tajaajilaa Waaqa jiraataa, Waaqni ati yeroo hunda isa tajaajiltu sun leencota irraa si baraaruu dandaʼeeraa?” jedhee Daaniʼelin waame.
21 Then said Daniel unto the king: 'O king, live for ever!
Daaniʼelis deebisee akkana jedhe; “Yaa mootii bara baraan jiraadhu!
22 My God hath sent His angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before Him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.'
Waaqni koo ergamaa isaa ergee afaan leencotaa cufe. Sababii ani fuula isaa duratti qulqulluu taʼee argameef isaan homaa na hin goone. Yaa Mootii ani fuula kee durattis yakka tokko illee hin hojjenneetii.”
23 Then was the king exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he had trusted in his God.
Mootichis akka malee gammadee akka Daaniʼel boolla keessaa baafamu ajaje. Daaniʼelis waan Waaqa isaa amanatee tureef yommuu boollaa baʼetti madaan tokko iyyuu isa irratti hin argamne.
24 And the king commanded, and they brought those men that had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and they had not come to the bottom of the den, when the lions had the mastery of them, and broke all their bones in pieces.
Warri sobaan Daaniʼelin himatanis ajaja mootichaatiin niitotaa fi ijoollee isaanii wajjin fidamanii boolla leencaatti darbataman. Utuu isaan boolla sana keessa lafa hin gaʼin leenconni isaan cicciratanii lafee isaanii hunda caccabsan.
25 Then king Darius wrote unto all the peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: 'Peace be multiplied unto you.
Kana irratti Daariyoos Mootichi uummata, sabootaa fi namoota guutummaa biyyattii keessatti afaan garaa garaa dubbatan hundatti akkana jedhee barreesse: “Nagaan isiniif haa baayʼatu!
26 I make a decree, that in all the dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for He is the living God, and stedfast for ever, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and His dominion shall be even unto the end;
“Ani akka namni kutaa mootummaa kootii hunda keessatti Waaqa Daaniʼel sodaatuu fi akka ulfina isaaf kennu labsii kana baaseera.
27 He delivereth and rescueth, and He worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth; who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.'
Inni ni baraara; ni oolchas;
28 So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
Kanaafuu bara Daariyoosii fi bara mootummaa Qiiros namicha Faares sanaa keessa Daaniʼelitti jireenyi ni tole.
