Daniel 2
1 And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him.
Ie tan-taom-paharoe’ ty fifehea’ i Nebokadnetsare, le nañinofy t’i Nebokadnetsare, naho nembereñe ty arofo’e vaho nibioñe ty firota’e.
2 Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, for to shew the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.
Aa le linili’ i mpanjakay te songa koiheñe o ambiasao naho o mpañorik’ androo vaho o nte-Kasdio, hanoro o nofi’eo amy mpanjakay. Aa ie nimbeo nijohañe añatrefa’ i mpanjakay eo,
3 And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream.
le hoe i mpanjakay am’ iereo: Nañinofy iraho, vaho angareñe ty troko haharendreke i nofiy.
4 Then spake the Chaldeans to the king in Syriack, O king, live for ever: tell thy servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation.
Aa le nisaontsy amy mpanjakay o nte-Kasdio an-tsaontsi’ Arame ty hoe: Ry mpanjaka, lava-ohatse; taroño amo mpitoro’oo i nofiy vaho hirazaña’ay.
5 The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if ye will not make known unto me the dream, with the interpretation thereof, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill.
Tinoi’ i mpanjakay amo nte-Kasdio ty hoe: Fa mijadoñe ty nisafiriako, naho tsy ampahafohineñ’ ahy i nofiy naho ty fandrazañaña’e, le ho tseratseraheñe nahareo vaho hanoeñe votren-deotse o akiba’ areoo.
6 But if ye shew the dream, and the interpretation thereof, ye shall receive of me gifts and rewards and great honour: therefore shew me the dream, and the interpretation thereof.
F’ie atoro’ areo i nofiy naho i fandrazaña’ey le handrambe tambe naho ravoravo naho asiñe ra’elahy amako; aa le atorò i nofiy naho i fandrazaña’ey.
7 They answered again and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation of it.
Nanoiñe fañindroe’e iereo, ami’ty hoe: Ehe te hataro’ i mpanjakay amo mpitoro’eo i nofiy, vaho ho razañe’ay.
8 The king answered and said, I know of certainty that ye would gain the time, because ye see the thing is gone from me.
Nanoiñe ty hoe amy zao i mpanjakay: Apotako an-katò t’ie manao jomà-lava, fa oni’ areo te nihelañe amy tiahikoy.
9 But if ye will not make known unto me the dream, there is but one decree for you: for ye have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, till the time be changed: therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that ye can shew me the interpretation thereof.
Aa naho tsy ampahafohineñe ahy i nofiy, le raik’ avao ty hizakàñe anahareo, amy te vata’e mañentseñe lañitse naho talily mengoke ho lañonà’ areo amako, hañovàñe i rahay; aa le taroño amako i nofiy handrendrehako hera ho razañe’ areo.
10 The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can shew the king’s matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.
Le tinoi’ o nte-Kasdio amy mpanjakay, ty hoe, Leo raik’ am’ ondati’ ty tane toio tsy hahafiboak’ i raha’ i mpanjakaiy ama'e, fa mbe lia’e tsy nañontaneam-panjaka ami’ ty ambiasa ndra mpañandro ndra nte-Kasdy ndra roandria ndra mpifeleke ty manahake izay.
11 And it is a rare thing that the king requireth, and there is none other that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
Toe raha tsitantane ty paia’ i mpanjakay, vaho tsy eo ty mahafanoro aze amy mpanjakay naho tsy o anjelio, ie tsy mitrao-pimoneñe ami’ty nofotse.
12 For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
Niviñetse amy zao i mpanjakay le niforoforo vaho linili’e te ho fonga mongoreñe ze ondaty mahihitse e Bavele ao.
13 And the decree went forth that the wise men should be slain; and they sought Daniel and his fellows to be slain.
Naboele i tsey zay naho ho navetrake ondaty mahilalao, vaho pinai’ iareo ka t’i Daniele naho o mpiama’eo havetrake.
14 Then Daniel answered with counsel and wisdom to Arioch the captain of the king’s guard, which was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon:
Nañàvohavo an-kihitse amy Arioke mpifehem-pigarim-panjakay t’i Daniele, ie fa nionjoñe hanjamañe ondaty mahilala’ i Baveleo;
15 He answered and said to Arioch the king’s captain, Why is the decree so hasty from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.
nisaontsie’e ty hoe amy Arioke mpifele’ i mpanjakay: Akore hao te taentaeñe i lili’ tsinei’ i mpanjakay? Aa le nampahafohine’ i Arioke t’i Daniele.
16 Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would shew the king the interpretation.
Nimoak’ ao amy zao t’i Daniele, nihalaly amy mpanjakay hanolora’e andro handrazaña’e amy mpanjakay.
17 Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions:
Nimb’añ’ akiba’e mb’eo amy zao t’i Daniele, nampahafohiñe i mpiama’e rey: i Kanania naho i Misaele vaho i Azarià,
18 That they would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning this secret; that Daniel and his fellows should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
hihalalia’ iareo fiferenaiñañe amy Andrianañaharen-dikerañey ty amy raha mietakey, soa tsy ho fonga mongoreñe miharo am’ ondaty mahilala ila’e e Baveleo t’i Daniele naho i mpiama’e rey.
19 Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
Naboak’ amy Daniele añ’ aroñaron-kaleñe i nietakey vaho nandriañe’e t’i Andrianañaharen-dikerañe.
20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
Hoe t’i Daniele: Andriañeñe nainai’e donia ty tahinan’Añahare, fa Aze ty hihitse naho haozarañe;
21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
Ie ty minday fañovan’andro naho sà: manitake mpifehe naho mampijadoñe mpifeleke; toroa’e hihitse ty mahihitse naho hilala o mahilalao;
22 He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
aboa’e ty miheotse naho ty mietake; arofoana’e o añ’ieñeo, vaho imoneñan-kazavàñe.
23 I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast now made known unto us the king’s matter.
Ihe ry Andrianañaharen-droaeko, ty isolohoako naho anolorako engeñe amy te tinolo’o hihitse naho haozarañe, le nitoroa’o henaneo i nihalalia’ay, ami’ty naboa’o ama’ay ty enta’ i mpanjakay.
24 Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had ordained to destroy the wise men of Babylon: he went and said thus unto him; Destroy not the wise men of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will shew unto the king the interpretation.
Ie amy zao, nimb’amy Arioke, i nafanto’ i mpanjakay hamono o mahihitse e Baveleoy mb’eo t’i Daniele nanao ty hoe: Ko zamaneñe o mahihi’ i Baveleo; aseseo amy mpanjakay iraho, hanoroako aze i fandrazañañey.
25 Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the captives of Judah, that will make known unto the king the interpretation.
Aa le nendese’ i Arioke mb’añatrefa’ i mpanjakay mb’eo amy zao t’i Daniele le nanoa’e ty hoe: fa nahatrea ondaty amo mpirohi’ Iehodào iraho ze hampahafohiñe i mpanjakay i fandrazañañey.
26 The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto me the dream which I have seen, and the interpretation thereof?
Tinoi’ i mpanjakay ty hoe amy Daniele natao Beltesatsarey: Ihe hao ty hahafandrendrek’ ahy i nofy nitreakoy naho i fandrazaña’ey?
27 Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, shew unto the king;
Nanoiñe ty hoe aolo’ i mpanjakay t’i Daniel, Ty ipaia’ i mpanjakaiy, le tsy mahafiboak’ aze amy mpanjakay ty mahihitse ndra mpañandro ndra ambiasa ndra mpitoky;
28 But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these;
fe andikerañe ao t’i Andrianañahare mpampiborake raha tsitantane; ie ty nampiboak’ amy Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka o raha hifetsak’ amo andro honka’eoo. Zao ty nofi’o, naho o aroñaron’ añambone’oo t’ie tam-pandreañe ao:
29 As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth secrets maketh known to thee what shall come to pass.
Ihe ry mpanjaka, an-tihi’o eo te nonjoneñe o ereñere’oo haharendreke ze hifetsak’ amy añey, vaho nampibentatse o hifetsakeo i Mpampiborake o tsikentañeo.
30 But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living, but for their sakes that shall make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest know the thoughts of thy heart.
Aa naho amako, tsy ho nahaborake i mietakey amy ze hihitse mete ho amako mandikoatse ze amo veloñe iabio, fe hatoroko amy mpanjakay i fandrazañañey hahafohina’o o ereñeren’ arofo’oo.
31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.
Nahatrea saren-draha jabajaba irehe, ry mpanjaka. Toe ra’elahy ty habei’ i sarey vaho losotse ty fireandrea’e, ie nijohañe añ’atrefa’o eo, mbore nampañeveñe i sandri’ey.
32 This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass,
Volamena ki’e ty loha’ i sarey, volafoty ty tratra’e naho o sira’eo; torisìke ty tro’e naho o tòha’eo;
33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.
viñe o kitso’eo vaho nizara o tombo’eo, ty ila’e viñe naho tane lietse ty ila’e.
34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
Nisambae’o le nihatsafeñe tsy am-pitàñe ty vato namofoke o tomboke viñe naho lietseo, nampidemoke iareo.
35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
Le nivolentsa amy zao i viñey, i lietsey, i torisìkey, i volafotiy, vaho i volamenay; manahake o kafo’e an-tane-panongañ’ asarao; nasio’ i tiokey mb’eo, le ndra loli’e tsy nitendreke ka. Le nitombo ho vohitse mitiotiotse nahalifotse ty voatse toy i vato nidoiñe amy rahaiy.
36 This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
Izay i nofiy, le ho taroñe’ay ama’o i fandrazaña’ey.
37 Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
Mpanjakam-panjaka irehe ry mpanjaka, amy te natolon’ Añaharen-dikerañe azo, ty fifeheañe, ty haozarañe, ty hafatrarañe, vaho ty engeñe.
38 And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold.
Le natolo’e am-pità’o ze hene fimoneña’ o ana’ondatio, o biby an-kivokeo, naho o voron-dikerañeo; vaho hene nampifehe’e azo. Ihe i añambone volamenay.
39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
Manonjohy azo, le hitroatse ka ty fifeheañe ambane’ ty azo, vaho hañorike izay ty fifeheañe fahatelo, hifeleke i hene taney i fifeheañe torisìkey.
40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
Haozarañe manahak’ o viñeo ty fifeheañe fah’efatse; naho hambañe ami’ty viñe mampidemoke naho mamofoke i he’e rezay, ty hampidemoha’e naho ty hamofoha’e.
41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
Le i nahaoniña’o o tomboke naho rambo’eoy, ty ila’e ni-liem-panao valàñe tane, ty ila’e viñe, le hizarazara i fifeheañey, fe ho ama’e ty haozara’ i viñey, ie nioni’o te nifangaro amy liem-panao valàñe-taney ty viñe.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
Le manahake te nizara ho viñe ty ila’ o rambo-tombo’eo naho lietse ty ila’e, le haozatse ty ampaha’ i fifeheañey vaho harantsañe ty ila’e.
43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
Aa i nioni’oy, i viñe nitraoke lietsey: Hifangaro añamo tiri’ ondatio iereo, fe tsy hifampipiteke, manahake ty tsy iharoa’ ty viñe naho ty lietse.
44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
Ie añ’andro i mpanjaka rey, le hampitroatse fifeheañe tsy ho mengoke nainai’e t’i Andrianañaharen-dikerañe, le tsy ho limbezam-pifokoa’ ondaty i fifeheañe zay, fe fonga ho demohe’e naho habotse’e o fifeheañeo, vaho ie ty hijadoñe nainai’e.
45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
Le ami’ty nahaoniña’o te hinatsake tsy am-pitàñe amy vohitsey ty vato nandemoke i viñey naho i torisìkey naho i lietsey naho i volafotiy vaho i volamenay; ie ty nampiboahan’ Añahare ra’èlahiy amy mpanjakay ty hifetsak’ amy ze añe. Toe to i nofiy, naho vantañe i fandrazaña’ey.
46 Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell upon his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odours unto him.
Aa le nihotrake naho nibabok’ an-dahara’e naho nire-batañe añ’atrefa’ i Daniele eo t’i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka vaho linili’e t’ie hisoroñañe naho hañembohañe.
47 The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth it is, that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, seeing thou couldest reveal this secret.
Nanao ty hoe amy Daniele i mpanjakay; Toe Andrianañaharen’ drahare t’i Andrianañahare vaho Talèm-panjaka naho Mpampiborake raha mietake t’i Andrianañahare’o, kanao nabenta’e ama’o i raha mietakey.
48 Then the king made Daniel a great man, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon.
Aa le nonjone’ i mpanjakay t’i Daniele naho nitolora’e ravoravo fanjaka maro vaho nanoe’e mpifehe’ i hene faritane’ i Baveley naho mpifeleke o fonga mpifehe’ o mahihi’ i Baveleoo.
49 Then Daniel requested of the king, and he set Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel sat in the gate of the king.
Nihalaly amy mpanjakay t’i Daniele, vaho najado’e ho mpamandroñe o raham-paritane’ i Baveleo t’i Sadrake naho i Mesake vaho i Abednegò; le tan-dalambei’ i mpanjakay t’i Daniele.
