Daniel 4
1 Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you.
Inwaragawag ni Ari Nebucadnesar daytoy a bilin kadagiti amin a tattao, nasion, ken kadagiti pagsasao nga agnananed iti rabaw ti daga: “Adda koma kappia kadakayo.
2 I thought it good to shew the signs and wonders that the high God hath wrought toward me.
Kasla nasayaat kaniak nga ibaga kadakayo ti maipapan kadagiti pagilasinan ken kadagiti nakaskasdaaw nga inaramid ti Kangangatoan kaniak.
3 How great [are] his signs! and how mighty [are] his wonders! his kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion [is] from generation to generation.
Anian a naindaklan dagiti pagilasinanna, ket anian a nagbileg dagiti nakaskasdaaw nga inaramidna! Ti pagarianna ket agnanayon a pagarian, ken agpaut ti panagturayna manipud iti maysa a henerasion agingga iti sumarsaruno a henerasion.”
4 I Nebuchadnezzar was at rest in mine house, and flourishing in my palace:
Siak, a ni Nebucadnesar ket agnanaedak a siraragsak iti balayko ket ragragsakek ti kinarang-ay iti palasiok.
5 I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me.
Ngem pinagbutengnak ti maysa a tagtagainepko. Bayat a nakaiddaak sadiay, riniribuknak dagiti ladawan a nakitak ken dagiti sirmata iti panunotko.
6 Therefore made I a decree to bring in all the wise [men] of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream.
Isu nga imbilinko nga iyegda iti sangoanak dagiti amin a lallaki ti Babilonia nga addaan iti kinasirib tapno mailawlawagda kaniak ti kaipapanan ti tagtagainep.
7 Then came in the magicians, the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers: and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation thereof.
Ket immay dagiti salamangkero, dagiti mangibagbaga a kabaelanda iti makisarita kadagiti natay, dagiti nasirib a lallaki ken dagiti astrologo. Imbagak kadakuada ti tagtagainep, ngem saanda a maipalawag kaniak ti kaipapanan daytoy.
8 But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name [was] Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods: and before him I told the dream, [saying],
Ngem kamaudiananna, simrek ni Daniel— ti napanaganan iti Beltesazar a kanagnagan ti diosko, ken adda kenkuana ti espiritu dagiti nasantoan a didios. Imbagak kenkuana ti tagtagainep.
9 O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods [is] in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof.
“Beltesazar a kangatoan kadagiti salamangkero, ammok nga adda kenka ti espiritu dagiti nasantoan a didios ket awan iti nakaskasdaaw a narigat unay kenka. Ibagam kaniak ti nakitak iti tagtagainepko ken ti kayat a sawen daytoy.
10 Thus [were] the visions of mine head in my bed; I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof [was] great.
Dagitoy dagiti nakitak iti panunotko bayat nga agid-iddaak; “Kimmitaak ket adda maysa a kayo iti tengnga ti daga, ket kasta unay iti kangatona.
11 The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth:
Dimmakkel ti kayo ket nagbalin a natibker. Dimmanon ti tuktokna kadagiti langit, ken makita daytoy kadagiti pungto ti entero a daga.
12 The leaves thereof [were] fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it [was] meat for all: the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the boughs thereof, and all flesh was fed of it.
Nalangto dagiti bulongna, adu dagiti bungana, ket taraon daytoy para iti amin. Naglinong dagiti atap nga ayup iti sirokna. ken agnanaed kadagiti sangana dagiti billit iti tangatang. Nangan manipud iti bungana dagiti amin a sibibiag a parsua.
13 I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and, behold, a watcher and an holy one came down from heaven;
Nakitak iti panunotko bayat nga agid-iddaak, ket maysa a nasantoan a mensahero ti bimmaba manipud kadagiti langit.
14 He cried aloud, and said thus, Hew down the tree, and cut off his branches, shake off his leaves, and scatter his fruit: let the beasts get away from under it, and the fowls from his branches:
Impukkawna ket kinunana, Pukanenyo ti kayo ket salingsinganyo dagiti sangana, ikkatenyo dagiti bulongna ket iwarayo dagiti bungana. Bay-anyo a pumanaw dagiti ayup iti sirokna ken tumayab nga umadayo dagiti billit manipud kadagiti sangana.
15 Nevertheless leave the stump of his roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and [let] his portion [be] with the beasts in the grass of the earth:
Ibatiyo iti daga ti pungdol a nagkapetan dagiti ramutna, pulipolanyo iti landok ken bronse, iti tengnga dagiti naganus a ruot iti kataltalonan. Bay-anyo a mabasa daytoy iti linnaaw manipud kadagiti langit. Bay-anyo a makipagnaed kadagiti ayup ken kadagiti mula iti daga.
16 Let his heart be changed from man’s, and let a beast’s heart be given unto him; and let seven times pass over him.
Bay-anyo nga agbaliw ti panunotna manipud iti panunot ti tao, ket agbalin koma a kasla panunot ti ayup ti panunotna agingga nga aglabas iti pito a tawen.
17 This matter [is] by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.
Daytoy a pangngeddeng ket babaen iti bilin nga impadamag ti mensahero. Maysa daytoy a pangngeddeng nga inaramid dagiti nasantoan tapno maammoan dagiti sibibiag nga agturturay ti Kangangatoan kadagiti pagarian dagiti tattao ket iyawatna ida iti siasinoman a tarigagayanna a mangituray kadakuada, uray kadagiti kanunumoan a tattao.'
18 This dream I king Nebuchadnezzar have seen. Now thou, O Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation thereof, forasmuch as all the wise [men] of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation: but thou [art] able; for the spirit of the holy gods [is] in thee.
Siak, a ni Ari Nebucadnesar, daytoy ti natagtagainepko. Ita sika, Beltesazar, ibagam kaniak ti kaipapananna, gapu ta awan kadagiti nasirib a lallaki iti pagariak ti makaibaga kaniak iti kaipapanan daytoy. Ngem kabaelam nga aramiden dayta, gapu ta adda kenka ti espiritu dagiti nasantoan a didios.”
19 Then Daniel, whose name [was] Belteshazzar, was astonied for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spake, and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation thereof, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream [be] to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine enemies.
Ket napaulimek iti apagbiit ni Daniel a napanaganan met iti Beltesazar, ken nagdanag isuna. Kinuna ti ari, “Beltesazar, saannaka koma a pagdanagen ti tagtagainep wenno ti kaipapanan daytoy.” Insungbat ni Beltesazar, “O apok, para koma kadagiti manggurgura kenka ti tagtagainep; para koma kadagiti kabusormo ti kaipapanan daytoy.
20 The tree that thou sawest, which grew, and was strong, whose height reached unto the heaven, and the sight thereof to all the earth;
Ti kayo a nakitam— a dimmakkel ken nagbalin a natibker, ken ti tuktokna ket nakadanon kadagiti langit, ken makita agingga kadagiti pungto ti daga—
21 Whose leaves [were] fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it [was] meat for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and upon whose branches the fowls of the heaven had their habitation:
a nalangto dagiti bulongna, ken adu dagiti bungana, tapno kadagitoy adda taraon para iti amin, ken aglinong iti sirokna dagiti ayup iti kataltalonan, ken agnaed iti daytoy dagiti billit iti tangatang—
22 It [is] thou, O king, that art grown and become strong: for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto heaven, and thy dominion to the end of the earth.
daytoy a kayo ket sika, O ari, dimmakkelka a natibker. Ad-adda a bimmilegka ket dumanon ti kinabilegmo kadagiti langit, ken dumanon ti turaymo agingga kadagiti pungto ti daga.
23 And whereas the king saw a watcher and an holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew the tree down, and destroy it; yet leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and [let] his portion [be] with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him;
Nakakitaka O ari, iti maysa a nasantoan a mensahero a bumabbaba manipud langit, a kunana, “Pukanenyo ti kayo ket dadaelenyo daytoy ngem ibatiyo ti pungdol a nagkapetan dagiti ramutna iti daga, pulipolanyo daytoy iti landok ken bronse, iti tengnga ti naganus a ruot iti kataltalonan. Bay-anyo a mabasa iti linnaaw manipud kadagiti langit. Bay-anyo a makipagnaed isuna kadagiti atap nga ayup kadagiti kataltalonan agingga nga aglabas ti pito a tawen.'
24 This [is] the interpretation, O king, and this [is] the decree of the most High, which is come upon my lord the king:
Kastoy ti kaipapananna O ari. Maysa a bilin daytoy ti Kangangatoan a dimmanon kenka, O apok nga ari.
25 That they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.
Mapapanawkanto iti ayan dagiti tattao, ket agnaedkanto a kaduam dagiti ayup kadagiti kataltalonan. Mangankanto kadagiti ruot a kasla iti maysa a baka, ket mabasakanto iti linnaaw manipud kadagiti langit, ket aglabasto ti pito a tawen agingga a mabigbigmo nga agturturay ti Kangangatoan kadagiti pagarian dagiti tattao ken iyaw-awatna ida iti siasinoman a tarigagayanna.
26 And whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the tree roots; thy kingdom shall be sure unto thee, after that thou shalt have known that the heavens do rule.
Kas iti naibilin a mabati ti pungdol ti ramut ti kayo, iti kastoy a wagas, maisublinto kenka ti pagariam inton tiempo a maammoam nga agturturay ti langit.
27 Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.
Ngarud, O ari, makaay-ayo koma kenka ti balakadko. Isardengmon ti agbasbasol ket aramidem no ania ti umno. Agbabawika kadagiti basbasolmo babaen iti panangipakitam iti asi kadagiti maparparigat, ket mabalin a mapabayag ti kinarang-aymo.”
28 All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar.
29 At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon.
Napasamak amin dagitoy kenni Ari Nebucadnesar kalpasan ti sangapulo ket dua a bulan. Magmagna isuna iti palasio ti ari idiay Babilonia.
30 The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty?
Kuna ti ari, “Saan kadi a daytoy ti nabileg a Babilonia, nga imbangonko para iti naarian a pagtaengak, para iti dayag ti kinatan-okko?”
31 While the word [was] in the king’s mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, [saying], O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee.
Kabayatan nga ibagbaga pay laeng ti ari daytoy, maysa a timek ti nagtaud iti langit: “Ari Nebucadnesar, naipakaammon kenka a daytoy a pagarian ket saanmon a kukua.
32 And they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling [shall be] with the beasts of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.
Mapapanawkanto manipud iti ayan dagiti tattao, ket makipagtaengkanto kadagiti atap nga ayup kadagiti kataltalonan. Mangankanto kadagiti ruot a kasla iti maysa a baka. Pito a tawen ti aglabas agingga a mabigbigmo a ti Kangangatoan ti agturturay kadagiti pagarian dagiti tattao ken iyaw-awatna ida iti siasinoman a tarigagayanna.”
33 The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles’ [feathers], and his nails like birds’ [claws].
Naipatungpal a dagus daytoy a bilin a maibusor kenni Nebucadnesar. Napapanaw isuna iti ayan dagiti tattao. Nangan isuna iti ruot a kasla iti maysa baka, ket nabasa ti bagina iti linnaaw manipud kadagiti langit. Immatiddog ti buokna a kas kadagiti dutdot ti agila, ken nagbalin a kasla kuko dagiti billit dagiti kukona.
34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion [is] an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom [is] from generation to generation:
Ket iti pagpatinggaan dagiti al-aldaw, Siak, a ni Nebucadnesar, intangadko dagiti matak iti langit ket nagsubli kaniak ti kinalimbong ti panunotko. “Dinaydayawko ti Kangangatoan, ket rinaem ken dinayawko ti agbibiag iti agnanayon. Ta ti panagturayna ket awan patinggana a panagturay, ken agpaut ti pagarianna kadagiti amin a henerasion.
35 And all the inhabitants of the earth [are] reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and [among] the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?
Imbilangna nga awan serserbi dagiti agnanaed iti daga; ar-aramidenna kadagiti armada ti langit ken kadagiti agnanaed iti daga aniaman a maikari iti pagayatanna. Awan iti siasinoman a makapasardeng kenkuana wenno mangkarit kenkuana. Awan ti siasinoman a makaibaga kenkuana, 'Apay nga inaramidmo daytoy?'”
36 At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me.
Iti isu met laeng a tiempo a nagsubli kaniak ti kinalimbong ti panunotko, naisubli kaniak ti kinatan-ok ken kinadayagko para iti dayag ti pagariak. Binirok dagiti mammagbagak ken dagiti ofisialko ti paborko. Naisubliak iti tronok, ket ad-adda a bimmilegak.
37 Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works [are] truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.
Ita, siak, a ni Nebucadnesar, dayawek, itan-okko, ken raemek ti Ari ti langit, ta nalinteg dagiti amin nga aramidna, ken nalinteg dagiti wagasna. Kabaelanna nga ipababa dagiti magna iti bukodda a kinatangsit.
