< Daniel 2 >
1 And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar has dreamed dreams, and his spirit moves itself, and his sleep has been against him;
Ke yac se akluo in pacl Nebuchadnezzar el tokosra, el oru sie mweme. Yokla fohs lal kac, oru el kofla motul.
2 and the king says to call for enchanters, and for conjurers, and for sorcerers, and for Chaldeans, to declare to the king his dreams. And they come in and stand before the king;
Ouinge el sapla solama mwet susfa lal, mwet inutnut, mwet sramsram nu sin inut, ac mwet mwenmen lal in tuku ac aketeya mweme sac nu sel. Ke elos tuku ac tu ye mutun tokosra,
3 and the king says to them, “I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is moved to know the dream.”
el fahk nu selos, “Nga arulana fohsak ke mweme se nga oru. Nga ke etu lah mea kalmac.”
4 And the Chaldeans speak to the king [in] Aramaic, “O king, live for all ages, tell the dream to your servants, and we show the interpretation.”
Elos topuk tokosra ke kas Aramaic, “Lela in loes moul lun tokosra! Fahkma nu sesr mweme sacn, ac kut ac fah aketeya nu sum.”
5 The king has answered and said to the Chaldeans, “The thing is gone from me; if you do not cause me to know the dream and its interpretation, you are made pieces, and your houses are made dunghills;
Ac tokosra el fahk nu selos, “Nga sulela tari mu komtal ac fahkma nu sik mweme sac, na aketeya lah mea kalmac. Komtal fin tia ku, nga ac sap in sreyuki monumtal nu ke ip srisrik, ac lohm sumtal an in rakinyuki nwe ke orala yol in kutkut.
6 and if the dream and its interpretation you show, gifts, and fee, and great glory you receive from before me, therefore the dream and its interpretation you show me.”
A komtal fin fahkma nu sik mweme sac oayapa kalmac, na nga ac fah akfulatye komtal ac sot mwe moul yohk. Kwal, fahkma lah mea mweme sac, ac mea kalmac.”
7 They have answered a second time, and are saying, “Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we show the interpretation.”
Elos sifilpa topkol tokosra ac fahk, “Leum lasr fin fahkma na lah mweme fuka se, na kut ac fah akkalemye kalmac an.”
8 The king has answered and said, “Of a truth I know that you are gaining time, because that you have seen that the thing is gone from me,
Ke elos fahk ouinge ah, na tokosra el liksreni na fahk, “Ma na nga nunku ah ingan! Komtal suk na ma in eisla pacl, mweyen komtal etu na lah nga akola
9 [so] that, if you do not cause me to know the dream—one is your sentence, seeing a lying and corrupt word you have prepared to speak before me, until the time is changed, therefore tell the dream to me, then I know that you show me its interpretation.”
in sot nu sumtal lupan kaiyuk sefanna komtal fin tia fahkma kalmen mweme sac. Komtal pwapani komtal in tuku fahk kas kikiap in sisla pacl, mweyen komtal nunku mu nga ac ku in ekulla ma nga fahk uh. Fahkma lah mea mweme sac, na nga ac etu lah komtal ac ku in aketeya pac kalmac uh nu sik.”
10 The Chaldeans have answered before the king, and are saying, “There is not a man on the earth who is able to show the king’s matter; therefore, no king, chief, and ruler, has asked such a thing as this of any scribe, and enchanter, and Chaldean;
Ac mwet kasru fulat inge topuk ac fahk, “Wangin sie mwet fin faclu nufon ac ku in fahkot nu sin tokosra ma kom ke etu an. Wangin sie tokosra, finne tokosra se ma pwengpeng, ku yohk oemeet ku la, nu oru kain sap upa se ingan nu sin mwet susfa lal, mwet inutnut, ac mwet mwenmen lal.
11 and the thing that the king is asking [is] precious, and there are no others that show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.”
Ma tokosra siyuk ingan arulana upa, oru wangin mwet ku in fahkot nu sin tokosra sayen god uh, a god inge tia muta inmasrlon mwet uh.”
12 Therefore the king has been furious and very angry, and has said to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
Ke elos fahk ouinge, tokosra el foloyak, ac sap in anwukla nufon mwet kasru fulat lal in acn Babylon.
13 And the sentence has gone forth, and the wise men are being slain, and they have sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.
Ouinge sapkakinyuk tuh in anwuki elos nufon, welulang pac Daniel ac mwet kawuk lal ah.
14 Then Daniel has replied [with] counsel and discretion to Arioch chief of the executioners of the king, who has gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon.
Na Daniel el som nu yorol Arioch, su leum fin mwet karinginyal tokosra, su itukyang kunal in uniya mwet inge. Daniel el arulana sulela wo kas elan fahk,
15 He has answered and said to Arioch the king’s captain, “Why [is] the sentence so urgent from before the king?” Then Arioch has made the thing known to Daniel,
ac el siyuk sel Arioch lah efu ku tokosra el orala ma sap na upa se inge. Ouinge Arioch el aketeya nu sel Daniel ma sikyak uh.
16 and Daniel has gone up, and sought of the king that he would give him time to show the interpretation to the king.
In pacl sacna Daniel el som ac eis ku sin mwet fulat lun inkul uh in kolla kutu srisrik pacl uh, elan ku in akkalemye nu sin tokosra kalmen mweme sah.
17 Then Daniel has gone to his house, and to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, he has made the thing known,
Na Daniel el folokla nu yen el muta we, ac fahk nu sin mwet kawuk lal, Hananiah, Mishael, ac Azariah ke ma su sikyak inge.
18 and to seek mercies from before the God of the heavens concerning this secret, that they do not destroy Daniel and his companions with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
El fahk nu selos in pre nu sin God inkusrao tuh Elan pakoten nu selos ac ikasla kalmen ma lukma se inge nu selos, tuh elos fah tia anwuki wi mwet kasru fulat saya in acn Babylon.
19 Then to Daniel, in a vision of the night, the secret has been revealed. Then Daniel has blessed the God of the heavens.
Na in fong sacna ma lukma se inge ikakla nu sel Daniel in sie aruruma, ac el kaksakin God inkusrao, ac fahk,
20 Daniel has answered and said, “Let the Name of God be blessed from age even to age, for wisdom and might—for they are His.
“God El lalmwetmet ac kulana! Kaksakunul nwe tok ma pahtpat.
21 And He is changing times and seasons, He is causing kings to pass away, and He is raising up kings; He is giving wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those possessing understanding.
El nununku pacl uh ac ekyek lun pulan pacl uh; El tulokunak ac ikruiya tokosra uh; El pa sang etauk ac lalmwetmet.
22 He is revealing deep and hidden things; He has known what [is] in darkness, and light has dwelt with Him.
El ikasla kalmen ma lukma ac ma loal kalmac; El etu ma su oan wikla in lohsr uh, Ac El sifacna rauniyukla ke kalem.
23 You, O God of my fathers, I am thanking and praising, for wisdom and might You have given to me; and now, You have caused me to know that which we have sought from You, for the king’s matter You have caused us to know.”
Nga kaksakin kom ac akfulatye kom, God lun mwet matu luk. Kom ase ku nu sik ac etauk luk; Kom topokma pre luk, Ac akkalemye nu sesr ma kut in fahk nu sin tokosra.”
24 Therefore Daniel has gone up to Arioch, whom the king has appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he has gone, and thus has said to him, “You do not destroy the wise men of Babylon, bring me up before the king, and I show the interpretation to the king.”
Na Daniel el som nu yorol Arioch, su tuh supweyuk in uniya mwet kasru fulat lun tokosra inge, ac el fahk nu sel, “Nimet kom onelosla. Usyula nu yorol tokosra ac nga fah fahkang nu sel kalmen mweme se lal ah.”
25 Then Arioch in haste has brought up Daniel before the king, and thus has said to him, “I have found a man of the sons of the expulsion of Judah, who makes known the interpretation to the king.”
Kitin pacl ah na Arioch el usalak Daniel nu ye mutal tokosra ac fahk nu sel, “Nga konauk sie sin mwet Israel ma wi sruoh, su ac ku in fahkak nu sin tokosra kalmen mweme se lom.”
26 The king has answered and said to Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar, “Are you able to cause me to know the dream that I have seen, and its interpretation?”
Na tokosra el fahk nu sel Daniel (su oayapa pangpang Belteshazzar), “Kom ku in fahkma mweme se luk ah, ac aketeya lah mea kalmac?”
27 Daniel has answered before the king and said, “The secret that the king is asking, the wise men, the enchanters, the scribes, the soothsayers, are not able to show to the king;
Ac Daniel el topuk, “O Tokosra, wangin mwet mwenmen, mwet inutnut, mwet susfa, ku mwet tuni ma oan yen engyeng uh, su ac ku in fahkak nu sum ma se ingan.
28 but there is a God in the heavens, a revealer of secrets, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar that which [is] to be in the latter end of the days. Your dream and the visions of your head on your bed are these:
Tusruktu, oasr sie God inkusrao su ikasla ma lukma uh. El akkalemye nu sin Tokosra ma su ac sikyak in pacl fahsru uh. Ac inge nga ac fahkot mweme sacn, su kom arurumai ke kom motul.
29 You, O king, your thoughts on your bed have come up [concerning] that which [is] to be after this, and the Revealer of secrets has caused you to know that which [is] to be.
“Ke pacl se tokosra tuh motul ah, tokosra mwemei ma ac sikyak in pacl tok uh; ac God, su ikasla kalmen ma lukma, El akkalemye ma ac sikyak uh.
30 As for me—not for [any] wisdom that is in me above any living has this secret been revealed to me; but for the intent that the interpretation to the king they make known, and the thoughts of your heart you know.
Ma lukma se inge akkalemyeyukme nu sik, tia ke sripen nga lalmwetmet liki kutena mwet, a tuh Tokosra in ku in etu kalmen mweme sac, ac in kalem ke nunak su sikyak nu sin tokosra.
31 You, O king, were looking, and behold, a certain great image. This image [is] mighty, and its brightness excellent; it is standing before you, and its appearance [is] terrible.
“O Tokosra, in aruruma sac, tokosra tuh liye sie ma sruloala na yohk tu ye mutun tokosra — arulana kalem ac saromrom, ac mwe aksangeng in liyeyuk.
32 This image! Its head [is] of fine gold, its breasts and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze;
Sifa ah orekla ke gold ma wo emeet; iniwa ah ac pao ah orek ke silver; ac infulwal nu ke intwel orekla ke bronze.
33 its legs of iron, its feet, part of them of iron, and part of them of clay.
Nial orekla ke osra, ac falkal orekla ke osra ac fohk kle akulamisak.
34 You were looking until a stone has been cut out without hands, and it has struck the image on its feet, that [are] of iron and of clay, and it has broken them small;
Ke kom tuh ngetang liye ah, eot na lulap se tufwacla liki fin fulu se, a tia ma mwet moklela, twe sunna nia su orek ke osra ac kle, ac koteya.
35 then broken small together have been the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold, and they have been as chaff from the summer threshing-floor, and the wind has carried them away, and no place has been found for them: and the stone that struck the image has become a great mountain, and has filled all the land.
In pacl sacna osra, kle, bronze, silver, ac gold nukewa kac ah mokutkuti, oana kulun wheat ma kulkulla ke pacl fol uh, ac ipsriki oana apat uh. Eng ah okla ma inge nufon ac tia sie ip kac lula. A eot sac yokelik nwe oana eol soko su afinya faclu nufon.
36 This [is] the dream, and its interpretation we tell before the king.
“Pa inge mweme sac. Inge nga ac akkalemye nu sin tokosra kalmac uh.
37 You, O king, are a king of kings, for the God of the heavens a kingdom, strength, and might, and glory, has given to you;
O Tokosra, kom pa fulat oemeet sin tokosra nukewa uh. God inkusrao El orala tuh kom in tokosra fulat, ac El sot nu sum wal, ku, ac sunak.
38 and wherever sons of men are dwelling, the beast of the field, and the bird of the heavens, He has given into your hand, and has caused you to rule over them all; you [are] this head of gold.
El orala tuh in kom pa leum fin acn nukewa faclu ma oasr mwet muta we, ac oayapa leum fin kosro ac won nukewa. Kom pa sifa se ma orekla ke gold inge.
39 And after you another kingdom arises lower than those, and another third kingdom of bronze, that rules over all the earth.
Ac fah mau oasr pac sie tokosrai tukum, su ac tia arulana pwengpeng oana tokosrai se lom inge, ac toko ac oasr pac sie tokosrai aktolu, ma orekla ke bronze, su ac leumi faclu nufon.
40 And the fourth kingdom is strong as iron, because that iron is breaking small, and making feeble, all [things], even as iron that is breaking all these, it beats small and breaks.
Toko, ac oasr tokosrai se pac akakosr su ac fokoko oana osra uh. Tokosrai se ingan ac fah fukulya ac kunauselik tokosrai nukewa meet ah, oana ke osra uh ac fukulya ac kunauselik ma nukewa.
41 As for that which you have seen: the feet and toes, part of them potter’s clay, and part of them iron, the kingdom is divided: and some of the standing of the iron [is] to be in it, because that you have seen the iron mixed with miry clay.
Kom tuh liye pac lah falkal ac kufinnial orekla ke fohk kle ac osra. Kalmac pa tokosrai se inge ac mau kitakatelik, na ku se la uh ac ku in srifal mweyen oasr osra ac fohk kle akulamisi kac.
42 As for the toes of the feet, part of them iron, and part of them clay: some part of the kingdom is strong, and some part of it is brittle.
Kufinnial — su kutu ip uh osra ac kutu fohk kle — akkalemye lah tafu tokosrai se inge ac ku, ac tafu ac munas.
43 Because you have seen iron mixed with miry clay, they are mixing themselves with the seed of men: and they are not adhering with one another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
Kom oayapa liye lah osra ah akulamisi ke fohk kle. Kalmen ma se inge pa mwet leum ke tokosrai se inge ac srike in orani sou lalos in ma se lac ke elos ac oru mwet lalos uh in tukeni apayuki, tusruktu elos ac tia ku in orani, oana ke osra ac fohk kle tia ku in akonoki.
44 And in the days of these kings the God of the heavens raises up a kingdom that is not destroyed for all time, and its kingdom is not left to another people: it beats small and ends all these kingdoms, and it stands for all time.
In pacl lun mwet leum inge, God inkusrao El ac fah oakiya sie tokosrai su ac fah wangin saflaiya. Ac fah tiana ku in kutangyukla, a ac fah kunausla nufon tokosrai ingan, na ac fah oanna nwe tok.
45 Because that you have seen that out of the mountain a stone has been cut without hands, and it has beaten the iron small, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king that which [is] to be after this; and the dream [is] true, and its interpretation steadfast.”
Kom tuh liye pac ke eot sac ipipla liki fin fulu sac a wanginna mwet mokleak, ac ke eot sac tukya ma sruloala sac ma orekla ke osra, bronze, fohk kle, silver ac gold. God fulat El fahk nu sum, O Tokosra, ma ac sikyak in pacl fahsru uh. Nga fahkot kewa ma kom mwemei, ac akkalemye pac nu sum kalmac uh.”
46 Then King Nebuchadnezzar has fallen on his face, and to Daniel he has done homage, and present, and sweet things, he has said to pour out to him.
Na Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el pasrla nwe ten ac sapkin tuh in orek mwe kisa ac mwe sang nu sel Daniel.
47 The king has answered 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, since you have been able to reveal this secret.”
Tokosra el fahk, “God lom El fulat liki god nukewa. El Leum fin tokosra uh, ac El ikasla kalmen ma lukma. Nga etu ouinge mweyen kom ku in aketeya ma lukma se inge.”
48 Then the king has made Daniel great, and many great gifts he has given to him, and has caused him to rule over all the province of Babylon, and chief of the prefects over all the wise men of Babylon.
Ouinge el akfulatyalak Daniel nu ke sie wal fulat, ac sang nu sel mwe lung na wowo puspis, ac oru elan leumi acn Babylon, ac oru tuh in el pa leum fin un mwet kasru fulat nukewa lun tokosra.
49 And Daniel has sought from the king, and he has appointed over the work of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, and Daniel [is] in the gate of the king.
Fal nu ke siyuk se lal Daniel, Tokosra el eisalang Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego in karingin mukuikui nukewa in acn Babylon; a Daniel el mutana inkul fulat sin tokosra.
