Daniel 3
1 Nebuchadnezzar the king has made an image of gold, its height sixty cubits, its breadth six cubits; he has raised it up in the Valley of Dura, in the province of Babylon;
Wa Nèbikadneza te fè fè yon gwo estati lò. Estati a te gen katrevendis pye wotè ak nèf pye lajè. Li fè yo mete l' kanpe nan mitan plenn Doura a, nan pwovens Babilòn lan.
2 and Nebuchadnezzar the king has sent to gather the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates, and all the rulers of the province, to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has raised up.
Lèfini, wa a bay lòd pou tout otorite yo: prefè, kòmandan, gouvènè, komisè, prepoze, jij, majistra ansanm ak tout lòt chèf pwovens yo, reyini pou y'a l' nan premye seremoni y'ap fè pou mete estati lò wa a te fè fè a an sèvis.
3 Then are gathered the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates, and all the rulers of the province, to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has raised up: and they are standing before the image that Nebuchadnezzar has raised up.
Se konsa, tout otorite yo te reyini pou gwo fèt premye seremoni an. Yo te kanpe devan estati wa a te fè fè a.
4 And a crier is calling mightily: “They are saying to you: O peoples, nations, and languages!
Yonn nan moun ki te konn fè piblikasyon yo pran pale byen fò, li di: -Nou menm moun tout nasyon, moun tout ras ki pale tout kalite lang, men lòd yo ban nou.
5 At the time that you hear the voice of the horn, the flute, the harp, the lyre, the stringed instrument, the symphony, and all kinds of music, you fall down and pay respect to the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has raised up:
Talè konsa nou pral tande yo kònen twonpèt. Apre sa, yo pral jwe fif, bandjo, gita. Lèfini, yo pral jwe tout lòt enstriman mizik yo ansanm. Lè mizik la konmanse, se pou nou mete ajenou devan estati lò wa Nèbikadneza te fè fè a. Se pou nou adore l'.
6 and whoever does not fall down and pay respect, in that hour he is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.”
Tout moun ki refize mete ajenou devan estati a pou adore l', y'ap pran l' al lage tou vivan anndan yon gwo fou tou limen.
7 Therefore at that time, when all the peoples are hearing the voice of the horn, the flute, the harp, the lyre, the stringed instrument, and all kinds of music, falling down are all the peoples, nations and languages, worshiping the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has raised up.
Se konsa, tande moun yo tande twonpèt la ak tout lòt enstriman yo, yo tonbe ajenou devan estati lò wa Nèbikadneza te fè fè a, yo adore l'. Te gen moun tout nasyon ki soti nan tout ras, epi ki pale tout kalite lang.
8 Therefore at that time certain Chaldeans have drawn near, and accused the Jews;
Lè sa a, gen kèk moun lavil Babilòn ki pwofite al denonse jwif yo.
9 they have answered, indeed, they are saying to Nebuchadnezzar the king, “O king, live for all ages!
Yo di wa Nèbikadneza konsa: -Se pou wa a viv pou tout tan!
10 You, O king, have made a decree that every man who hears the voice of the horn, the flute, the harp, the lyre, the stringed instrument, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, falls down and pays respect to the golden image;
Monwa, ou fè pibliye yon lòd ki mande pou tout moun mete ajenou, pou yo adore estati lò a, lè y'a tande twonpèt ak tout lòt enstriman mizik yo ap jwe.
11 and whoever does not fall down and pay respect, is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
Si yon moun pa mete ajenou pou adore estati a, se pou yo lage l' tout vivan nan gwo fou tou limen an.
12 There are certain Jews whom you have appointed over the work of the province of Babylon—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, these men have not made of you, O king, [any] regard; your gods they are not serving, and to the golden image you have raised up—are not making worship.”
Enben! Gen twa jwif ou te mete reskonsab pwovens Babilòn lan. Se Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego. Mesye sa yo pa okipe lòd ou bay la, monwa. Yo pa adore bondye ou la. Yo pa mete ajenou devan estati lò ou te fè fè a.
13 Then Nebuchadnezzar, in anger and fury, has said to bring in Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. Then these men have been brought in before the king.
Lè Nèbikadneza tande sa, li move anpil, li fè gwo kòlè, li bay lòd pou yo mennen Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego ba li. Lamenm, yo mennen twa mesye yo devan wa a.
14 Nebuchadnezzar has answered and said to them, “Is [it] a laid plan, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego—my gods you are not serving, and to the golden image that I have raised up you are not worshiping?
Wa a di yo konsa: -Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego, èske se vre nou derefize adore bondye mwen yo, nou derefize mete ajenou devan estati lò mwen te fè fè a?
15 Now behold, you are ready, so that at the time that you hear the voice of the horn, the flute, the harp, the lyre, the stringed instrument, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, you fall down and pay respect to the image that I have made! But if you do not worship—in that hour you are cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; who is that God who delivers you out of my hands?”
Bon, koulye a, tande n'a tande twonpèt yo ak lòt enstriman mizik yo ap jwe, se pou nou mete ajenou pou n' adore estati mwen fè fè a. Si nou pa fè sa, y'ap jete nou nan gwo fou tou limen an. Pa gen bondye ki pou delivre nou anba men m'.
16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego have answered, indeed, they are saying to King Nebuchadnezzar, “We have no need concerning this matter to answer you.
Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego reponn, yo di wa Nèbikadneza konsa: -Monwa, nou p'ap eseye defann tèt nou.
17 Behold, it is; our God whom we are serving, is able to deliver us from a burning fiery furnace; and from your hand, O king, He delivers.
Si Bondye n'ap sèvi a ka wete nou nan gwo fou tou limen an, si li ka delivre nou tou anba men ou, l'ap fè l'.
18 And behold—not! Be it known to you, O king, that we are not serving your gods, and we do not worship the golden image you have raised up.”
Men, menm si li pa vin delivre nou, monwa, nou tou di ou nou p'ap adore bondye pa ou yo, ni nou p'ap mete ajenou devan estati lò ou te fè fè a.
19 Then Nebuchadnezzar has been full of fury, and the expression of his face has been changed concerning Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego; he answered and said to heat the furnace seven times above that which it is seen to be heated;
Lè wa Nèbikadneza tande pawòl sa yo, li fè yon sèl kolè, li move sou Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego. Li bay lòd pou yo chofe fou a sèt fwa plis pase jan yo te konn fè l' la.
20 and to certain mighty men who [are] in his force he has said to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to cast into the burning fiery furnace.
Lèfini, li mande pou kèk sòlda ki pi gwonèg nan lame li a vin mare Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego byen mare, apre sa pou lage yo jete nan gwo fou tou limen an.
21 Then these men have been bound in their coats, their tunics, and their turbans, and their clothing, and have been cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
Se konsa yo pran mesye yo, yo mare yo byen mare, yo jete yo nan gwo fou tou limen an ak tout rad sou yo, soulye nan pye yo ak gwo mouchwa mare tèt yo.
22 Therefore, because that the word of the king is urgent, and the furnace heated exceedingly, those men who have taken up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego—the spark of the fire has killed them.
Lòd wa a te bay la te sevè, kifè yo te chofe fou a anpil anpil. Se konsa flanm dife ki t'ap soti nan fwa a boule gad ki t'ap jete mesye yo nan dife a. Yo mouri.
23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, have fallen down in the midst of the burning fiery furnace—bound.
Twa mesye yo menm, Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego, tonbe tou mare nan gwo fou tou limen an.
24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king has been astonished, and has risen in haste; he has answered and said to his counselors, “Have we not cast three men into the midst of the fire—bound?” They have answered and are saying to the king, “Certainly, O king.”
Apre sa, wa Nèbikadneza rete konsa li leve voup, tankou yon moun ki sezi. Li mande moun ki te avè l' yo: -Eske se pa t' twa moun tou mare nou te lage nan gwo fou tou limen an? Yo reponn li: -Se sa wi, monwa!
25 He answered and has said, “Behold, I am seeing four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the appearance of the fourth [is] like to a son of the gods.”
Wa a di yo ankò: -Ki jan fè se kat moun mwen wè k'ap mache nan dife a? Yo yonn pa mare. Dife a pa fè yo anyen. Katriyèm moun lan menm sanble yon pitit bondye yo.
26 Then Nebuchadnezzar has drawn near to the gate of the burning fiery furnace; he has answered and said, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, servants of God Most High come forth, indeed, come”; then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego come forth, from the midst of the fire;
Wa Nèbikadneza pwoche bò pòt gwo fou a epi li rele: -Chadrak! Mechak! Abèdnego! Sèvitè Bondye ki nan syèl la! Soti vin jwenn mwen! Epi mesye yo mache soti nan dife a.
27 and gathered together, the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, and the counselors of the king, are seeing these men, that the fire has no power over their bodies, and the hair of their head has not been singed, and their coats have not changed, and the smell of fire has not passed on them.
Tout gwo zotobre yo: prefè, kòmandan, gouvènè ansanm ak tout lòt chèf yo sanble pou yo wè twa mesye yo. Dife a pa t' fè kò yo anyen. Yon branch cheve nan tèt yo pa t' boule, rad sou yo pa te menm flambe. Pa t' gen okenn lafimen sou yo.
28 Nebuchadnezzar has answered and has said, “Blessed [is] the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who has sent His messenger, and has delivered His servants who trusted on Him.” And the word of the king changed, and gave up their bodies that they might not serve nor pay respect to any god except to their own God.
Wa a di konsa: -Lwanj pou Bondye Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego a! Li voye zanj li delivre sèvitè l' yo ki te mete konfyans yo nan li. Yo te derefize obeyi lòd mwen. Yo te pito mouri pase pou yo ta mete ajenou pou adore yon bondye ki pa bondye pa yo a.
29 “And by me a decree is made, that any people, nation, and language, that speaks erroneously concerning the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, he is made pieces, and its house is made a dunghill, because that there is no other god who is able thus to deliver.”
Koulye a, men lòd mwen bay pou tout pèp, moun tout peyi ak moun tout ras ki pale lòt lang yo: si yonn nan nou pale Bondye Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego a mal, se pou yo depatcha l'. Lèfini, se pou yo kraze kay li nèt mete atè. Paske pa gen lòt bondye ki ka delivre moun konsa.
30 Then the king has caused Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to prosper in the province of Babylon.
Wa a moute Chadrak, Mechak ak Abèdnego grad nan pwovens Babilòn lan.
