< Daniel 6 >
1 Darius deemed it proper, and he set over the kingdom one hundred and twenty lieutenants, who should be over all the kingdom;
Darius noneno ni en gima ber mondo oyier jotelo mia achiel gi piero ariyo mondo okonye rito pinyruodhe duto.
2 And over these, three presidents, of whom Daniel was one; that these lieutenants should give accounts unto them, so that the king might suffer no damage.
Eka noyiero Daniel gi ji ariyo mamoko mondo obed jotend jotelogo. Jorit pinjegi nomi chik ni nyaka gidwok wach ni jotelo adekgi, mondo kik gimoro dhi marach ne ruoth.
3 Then did this Daniel excel [all] the presidents and lieutenants, because a superior spirit was in him: and the king thought to appoint him over the whole kingdom.
To Daniel noloyo jotend jorit pinje mamoko duto, nikech lony mamalo mane en-go, mi ruoth koro ne chano mondo omiye teko mar rito piny duto.
4 Then sought the presidents and lieutenants to find a pretext against Daniel on account of the management of the kingdom; but they were not able to find any pretext or fault, forasmuch as he was faithful, and no kind of error or fault was to be found on him.
Mano nomiyo jotend jorit pinje gi jodongo notemo mondo ondhog Daniel e tije mar rito piny, to ne otamogi yudo. Ne ok ginyal yudo ketho moro amora kuome, nikech ne en ja-adiera e yore duto, kendo ne oonge gi tim mar kawo malangʼ, kata mar jwangʼo tich.
5 Then said these men, We shall not find any pretext against this Daniel, except we find it against him in the law of his God.
Bangʼ temo yore duto, jogi nowacho niya, “Ok wabi yudo wach moro amora ma wanyalo ketogo ketho kuom Daniel, makmana ka en gima omulo chik Nyasache.”
6 Then came these presidents and lieutenants tumultuously to the king, and thus said they unto him, King Darius, live for ever.
Kuom mano, jotend jorit pinje, kaachiel gi jodongo, nodhi ir ruoth ma giwachone niya, “Yaye ruoth Darius, mad idag amingʼa!
7 All the presidents of the kingdom, the superintendents, and the lieutenants, the counsellors, and the governors, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm prohibition, that whosoever will ask any thing by prayer of any God or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions.
Jotend jotich duto mag ruoth, kaachiel gi jochik jotich, gi jorit pinje, gi jongʼad rieko kod jotend jorit pinje osewinjore ni ruoth onego ogol chik, kendo one ni chikno otiyo, mondo ngʼato angʼata molamo nyasaye moro amora kata dhano moro amora kuom ndalo piero adek mabiro, ma ok in, yaye ruoth, to mondo obol e bur sibuoche.
8 Now, O king, establish the prohibition, and sign the writing, that it cannot be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which is not to be repealed.
Koro, yaye ruoth, gol chikno, kendo ndike piny, ma ok nyal loke mana kaka chik jo-Medes gi jo-Pasia ma ok nyal loki.”
9 In view of this king Darius signed the writing and the prohibition.
Omiyo ruoth Darius nondiko chikno mogoyoe sei mar ruoth.
10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went up unto his house, where he had open windows in his upper chamber in the direction of Jerusalem; and three times every day he kneeled upon his knees, and prayed, and offered thanks before his God, as he had been doing before that time.
Kane Daniel owinjo ni oseket sei e chikno nodhi e ode kama ne nitie ot moro man-gi dirise mochomo yo Jerusalem. Odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ Daniel ne goyo chonge piny kodwoko erokamano ni Nyasache nyadidek mana kaka nosebedo kotimo pile.
11 Then came in these men tumultuously, and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.
Eka chiengʼ moro jogi nodhi ire ka gin kanyakla mine giyudo Daniel ka lemo kendo kwayo Nyasache mondo okonye.
12 Then came they near, and spoke before the king concerning the king's prohibition, Hast thou not signed a prohibition, that every man that will pray [for aught] of 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 certainly so, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot he repealed.
Omiyo negidhi ir ruoth kendo ne giwuoyo kode kuom chik mane osegolo: Donge nyocha iketo chik mindiko piny ni kuom ndalo piero adek mabiro ngʼato angʼata molamo nyasaye kata dhano moro amora ma ok in, yaye ruoth, to ibiro bol e bur sibuoche? Ruoth nodwoko niya, “Chikno osiko mana kaka chike jo-Medes gi jo-Pasia, ma ok nyal loki.”
13 Then answered they and said before the king, That Daniel, who is of the children of the exiles of Judah, hath paid no regard to thee, O king, nor to the prohibition which thou hast signed; but three times every day he offereth up his prayer.
Eka negiwachone ruoth niya, “Daniel ma en achiel kuom jo-Juda mane oter e twech, ok osedewi, yaye ruoth, bende ok osedewo chik mane iketo e ndiko. Pod olamo kido nyadidek e odiechiengʼ achiel.”
14 Then the king, when he heard this matter, felt very much distressed within himself, and on account of Daniel he sought an excuse to deliver him; and till the going down of the sun he strove hard to rescue him.
Kane ruoth owinjo wachno, chunye nochandore; moramo ni nyaka ores Daniel, kendo notimo duto mane onyalo odiechiengno duto chakre okinyi nyaka odhiambo mondo okonye.
15 Then came these men tumultuously unto the king, and said unto the king, Know, O king, that it is the law of the Medes and Persians. That every prohibition and statute which the king hath established is not to be changed.
Eka jogo duto nodhi ir ruoth mi giwacho niya, “Yaye ruoth, ngʼe ni kaluwore gi chik jo-Medes gi jo-Pasia, to onge chik ma ruoth osegolo manyalo lokore.”
16 Then gave the king the order, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. The king commenced and said unto Daniel, May thy God whom thou worshippest continually, truly deliver thee.
Omiyo ruoth nogolo chik, kendo negikelo Daniel mi gibole e bur sibuoche, kendo ruoth nowachone Daniel niya, “Mad Nyasachi, mitiyone ndalo duto, konyi!”
17 And a stone was brought, and placed upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet-ring, and with the signet-ring of his lords, that nothing should be changed in the purpose concerning Daniel.
Bangʼ mano nokel kidi modin-go dho bur, kendo ruoth noketo sei gi lwete owuon gi mar jodonge, mondo kik ngʼato angʼata ores Daniel.
18 Then went the king to his palace, and passed the night fasting: and no food was brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.
Eka ruoth nodok e ode kendo otienono duto ne ok ochiemo bende ne ok oyie mondo joma mielne obi e nyime bende nindo notamore tere.
19 Then arose the king by the morning-dawn, as soon as it was light, and went in great haste unto the den of lions.
Okinyi mangʼich ka ugwe chako wuok, ruoth noa malo moreto nyaka e bur sibuoche.
20 And when he came near to the den, he cried with a mournful voice unto Daniel: the king commenced and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, hath thy God, whom thou worshippest continually, been able to deliver thee from the lions!
Kane ochopo machiegni gi bur sibuoche, noluongo Daniel gi dwol maduongʼ ka chunye parore niya, “Daniel, jatij Nyasaye Mangima, bende Nyasachi mitiyone ndalo duto oseresi e dho sibuochego?”
21 Then spoke Daniel with the king, O king, live for ever.
Daniel nodwoko niya, “Yaye ruoth, mad idag amingʼa!”
22 My God sent his angel, and locked up the mouths of the lions, and they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, had I done nothing injurious.
Nyasacha nooro malaikane, momako dho sibuoche. Ok gisehinya, nikech noyud ka aonge ketho e nyime, to kata in, yaye ruoth, pok atimo gimoro amora marach e nyimi.
23 Then was the king exceedingly glad within himself, and concerning Daniel he ordered to bring him up out of the den. So was Daniel brought up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he had trusted in his God.
Ruoth ne mor ahinya mi nogolo chik mondo ogol Daniel ei bur sibuoche. Kane ogol Daniel oko e bur sibuoche, to ne ok noyudi kama lit moro amora e dende, nikech nogeno kuom Nyasache kinde duto.
24 And the king gave the order, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel treacherously, and they cast into the den of lions them, their children, and their wives; and they had not yet touched the bottom of the den when the lions had the mastery over them, and ground up all their bones.
Ruoth nogolo chik, mi joma nohango ne Daniel wach nokel nobol e bur sibuoche, kaachiel gi mondgi gi nyithindgi. To sibuoche nongamogi gi ewi yamo kapok gichopo piny, kendo noturo chokegi duto matindo tindo.
25 Then wrote king Darius unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell on all the earth, May your welfare increase.
Eka ruoth Darius nondiko ne ogendini duto, gi pinje duto kod ji duto mawacho dhok mopogore opogore e piny duto kama: “Mad Nyasaye med gwedhou ahinya!”
26 From me is it decreed, That in all the dominion of my kingdom men shall tremble and have fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God, and endureth for ever, and it is his kingdom which will not be destroyed, and his dominion will be unto the end [of things].
Asegolo chik ne pinje duto manie bwo lochna ni mondo ji duto oluor Nyasach Daniel kendo omiye duongʼ.
27 He delivereth and rescueth, and he displayeth sings and wonders in heaven and on earth, he who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.
En ema oreso kendo okonyo ji;
28 So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
Kuom mano Daniel nomedo dhi maber e ndalo loch mar Darius kendo e ndalo loch mar Sairas ja-Pasia.
