< Daniel 4 >
1 “Nebuchadnezzar the king to all peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the earth: Your peace be great!
O NEBUKANEZA ke alii, i na kanaka a pau, a me na lahuikanaka, a me na olelo e, e noho ana ma ka honua a pau: E hoomahuahuaia ana ko oukou maluhia.
2 The signs and wonders that God Most High has done with me, it is good before me to show.
He mea pono i ko'u manao ke hoakaka aku i na hoailona, a me na hana mana a ke Akua kiekie i hana mai ai ia'u.
3 How great His signs! And how mighty His wonders! His kingdom [is] a continuous kingdom, and His rule [is] with generation and generation.
He manomano kona mau hoailona, a he kupaianaha hoi kana mau hana mana! O kona aupuni, he aupuni mau loa ia, a o kona alii ana, mai ia hanauna aku ia, a ia hanauna aku.
4 I, Nebuchadnezzar, have been at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace:
Owau, o Nebukaneza, ua noho maluhia au iloko o ko'u hale, a pomaikai no au ma kuu halealii;
5 a dream I have seen, and it makes me afraid, and the conceptions on my bed, and the visions of my head, trouble me.
Ua moe uhane au i ka moe, o ka'u mea ia i weliweli ai, a o na manao maluna o ko'u wahi moe a me ka lia ana o ko'u poo, o ka'u mau mea ia e pihoihoi ai.
6 And by me a decree is made, to cause all the wise men of Babylon to come up before me, that the interpretation of the dream they may cause me to know.
No ia mea, kauoha aku la au e alakaiia mai imua o'u ka poe naauao a pau o Babulona, i hoakaka mai lakou ia'u i ke ano o ka'u moe.
7 Then coming up are the scribes, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers, and the dream I have told before them, and its interpretation they are not making known to me.
A hele mai no ka poe magoi, a me ka poe hoopiopio, a me ka poe Kaledea, a me ka poe kilokilo, a hoike aku au ia lakou i ka moe; aole i hiki ia lakou ke hai mai i kona mea hoike.
8 And at last Daniel has come up before me, whose name [is] Belteshazzar—according to the name of my god—and in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods, and the dream before him I have told:
Mahope iho, hele mai imua o'u o Dauiela, ka mea i kapaia o Beletesaza mamuli o ka inoa o ko'u akua, no ka mea, aia iloko ona ka uhane o na akua hemolele; a hai aku au ia ia i ka'u moe;
9 O Belteshazzar, master of the scribes, as I have known that the spirit of the holy gods [is] in you, and no secret presses you, the visions of my dream that I have seen, and its interpretation, tell.
E Beletesaza, e ka luna o na magoi, no ka mea, ua ike au aia iloko ou ka uhane o na akua hemolele, aole ou wahi hemahema ma ka mea i ike ole ia, e hai mai oe i ka moe a'u i ike ai a me kona ano.
10 As for the visions of my head on my bed, I was looking, and behold, a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height [is] great:
Penei ka lia ana a ko'u poo maluna o ko'u wahi moe: aia hoi, ua ike au, he laau iwaenakonu o ka honua, a o kona kiekie, ua oi nui loa aku ia.
11 the tree has become great, indeed, strong, and its height reaches to the heavens, and its vision to the end of the whole land;
Ulu ae la ua laau la a nui; o kona kiekie ua hiki aku ia i ka lani, a ua ike hoi ia ma na kihi a pau o ka honua.
12 its leaves [are] beautiful, and its budding great, and food for all [is] in it: under it the beast of the field takes shade, and in its boughs dwell the birds of the heavens, and of it are all flesh fed.
O na lau ona ua maikai ia, a he nui no hoi kona hua, aia hoi maloko ona he ai na na mea a pau; ua hoomaluia na holoholona o ke kula malalo iho ona, ua kau mai hoi na manu o ka lewa maluna o kona mau lala, a ua hanaiia na mea io a pau i ko ua laau la.
13 I was looking, in the visions of my head on my bed, and behold, a sifter, even a holy one, from the heavens is coming down.
Ua ike au ma ka lia ana o kuu poo maluna iho o ko'u wahi moe, aia hoi, he mea kiai a he mea hemolele e iho mai ana mai ka lani mai:
14 He is calling mightily, and thus has said, Cut down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its budding, move away let the beast from under it, and the birds from off its branches;
Kahea mai la oia me ka leo nui, a penei hoi kana olelo ana, E kua aku i ka laau, a e okioki i kona mau lala, e lulu aku i kona lau, a e hoohelelei hoi i kona hua; e haalele na holoholona i kona malu, a me na manu hoi i kona mau lala.
15 but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens is it wet, and with the beasts [is] his portion in the herb of the earth;
Aka, e waiho i ke kumu okona aa ma ka lepo, me ke apo hao, a me ke keleawe, mawaena o na mea uliuli o ke kula; a e hoopuluia oia i ka hau o ka lani, o kona kuleana aia no ia me na holoholona ma ka mauu o ka honua.
16 his heart from man’s is changed, and the heart of a beast is given to him, and seven times pass over him;
E hooliloia kona naau kanaka, a e haawiia ia ia ka naau holoholona; a hala ae na manawa ehiku maluna ona.
17 by the decree of the sifters [is] the sentence, and by the saying of the holy ones the requirement, to the intent that the living may know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He wills He gives it, and the lowest of men He raises up over it.
O ka manao paa keia o na mea kiai, a o ke kauoha hoi a na mea hemolele; i ike ai ka poe e ola ana aia maluna o ke aupuni kanaka ka Mea kiekie e alii ana a haawi aku no oia ia mea na ka mea ana e makemake ai, a hoonoho maluna iho i na kanaka lalo loa.
18 This dream I have seen, I King Nebuchadnezzar; and you, O Belteshazzar, tell the interpretation, because that all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to cause me to know the interpretation, and you [are] able, for the spirit of the holy gods [is] in you.”
Eia ka moe a'u a ke alii a Ne bukaneza i ike ai: ano e Beletesa za, e hai mai oe ia'u i ka hoike; no ka mea, aole e hiki i ka poe naauao a pau o ko'u aupuni ke hoakaka mai i ka hoike: aka, e hiki no ia oe, no ka mea, aia iloko ou ka uhane o na akua hemolele.
19 Then Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar, has been astonished about one hour, and his thoughts trouble him; the king has answered and said, “O Belteshazzar, do not let the dream and its interpretation trouble you.” Belteshazzar has answered and said, “My lord, the dream—to those hating you, and its interpretation—to your enemies!
Alaila pilipu iho la o Daniela i kapaia o Beletesaza i hookahi hora, a pono ole kona manao. Ekemu mai la ke alii, i mai, E Beletesaza, mai pilipu kou manao no ka moe, a me kona ano. I aku la o Beletesaza, E ko'u haku, i ka poe i hoino mai ia oe keia moe, a o ka hoohalike ana i kou poe enemi no ia.
20 The tree that you have seen, that has become great and strong, and its height reaches to the heavens, and its vision to all the land,
O ka laau au i ike ai, he nui. a he ikaika, o kona kiekie i hiki aku i ka lani, a ua ikeia hoi ia e ko ka honua a pau;
21 and its leaves [are] beautiful, and its budding great, and food for all [is] in it, under it the beast of the field dwells, and on its boughs the birds of the heavens sit.
O na lau ona he maikai, a nui kona hua, a maloko ona he ai na na mea a pau; a i hoomaluhia ai na holoholona o ke kula malalo iho ona, a maluna o kona mau lala i kau ai na manu o ka lewa:
22 It [is] you, O king, for you have become great and mighty, and your greatness has become great, and has reached to the heavens, and your dominion to the end of the earth;
O oe no ia, e ke alii, ua mahuahua oe a lilo i mea ikaika; no ka mea, ua mahuahua kou nui a hiki i ka lani, a o kou alii ana i ka welau o ka honua.
23 and that which the king has seen—a sifter, even a holy one, coming down from the heavens, and he has said, Cut down the tree, and destroy it; but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens it is wet, and with the beast of the field [is] his portion, until seven times pass over him.
A o kau ike ana, e ke alii, i ka mea kiai, he mea hemolele e iho mai ana, mai ka lani mai, e olelo ana, E kua aku i ka laau, a e hoopau ia ia; aka, e waiho i ke kumu o kona aa ma ka lepo, me ke apo hao a me ke keleawe, mawaena o na mea uliuli o ke kula; a e hoopuluia i ka hau o ka lani, o kona kuleana aia no ia me na holoholona o ke kula, a hala aku na manawa ehiku maluna iho ona;
24 This [is] the interpretation, O king, and it [is] the decree of the Most High that has come against my lord the king:
Eia ka hoike ana, e ke alii e, a eia hoi ka manao paa o ka Mea kiekie, ka mea e kau mai ana maluna o kuu haku ke alii:
25 and they are driving you away from men, and your dwelling is with the beast of the field, and they cause you to eat the herb as oxen, and they are wetting you by the dew of the heavens, and pass over you seven times, until you know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He wills He gives it.
E kipaku lakou ia oe mai na kanaka aku, a o kou wahi e noho ai aia no ia me na holoholona o ke kula, a e ai iho oe i ka weuweu e like me na bipi kauo, a e hoopuluia no hoi oe i ka hau o ka lani, a ha la na manawa ehiku maluna ou, a ike oe e alii ana ka Mea kiekie maluna o ke aupuni kanaka, a haawi aku no oia ia mea i kana mea e manao ai.
26 And that which they said—to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; your kingdom abides for you, after that you know that the heavens are ruling.
A e like me ka mea i oleloia, e waihoia ke kumu o na aa o ua laau la; eia, a ike oe no na lani mai ke alii ana, alaila e paa ai ia oe kou aupuni.
27 Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to you, and your sins by righteousness break off, and your perversity by pitying the poor, behold, it is a lengthening of your ease.”
No ia mea, e ke alii e, e haliu oluolu mai oe i ko'u manao, a e huli oe mai kou hewa mai i ka pono, a mai kou lawehala ana i ka manawalea aku i ka poe hune; pela paha e hooloihiia mai ai kou manawa pono.
28 All—has come on Nebuchadnezzar the king.
A kau mai no keia mau mea a pau maluna o Nebukaneza ke alii.
29 At the end of twelve months, on the palace of the kingdom of Babylon he has been walking;
A pau na malama he umi kumamalua e holoholo ana no ia maluna o ka halealii o ke aupuni o Babulona;
30 the king has answered and said, “Is this not that great Babylon that I have built, for the house of the kingdom, in the might of my strength, and for the glory of my honor?”
Olelo iho la ke alii, i iho la, Aole anei keia o Babulona nui ka mea a'u i kukulu ai i hale no ke aupuni, me ka ikaika o ko'u mana, a no ka hanohano o ko'u nani?
31 While the word is [in] the king’s mouth a voice from the heavens has fallen: “They are saying to you: O Nebuchadnezzar the king, the kingdom has passed from you,
Aia iloko o ko ke alii waha keia olelo, pae mai la ka leo mai ka lani mai, i mai la, E Nebukaneza, e ke alii e, ua olelo ia ia oe, Ua maalo ae ke aupuni mai ou aku.
32 and from men they are driving you away, and your dwelling [is] with the beast of the field, they cause you to eat the herb as oxen, and pass over you seven times, until you know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He wills He gives it.”
A e kipakuia no oe mai na kanaka aku, a o kou wahi e noho ai aia pu no ia me na holoholona o ke kula; a e hanaiia oe i ka mauu e like me na bipi kauo, a hala mai maluna ou na manawa ehiku; a ike oe o ka Mea kiekie oia ke alii ma ke aupuni o kanaka, a e haawiia no ia i kana mea e manao ai.
33 In that hour the thing has been fulfilled on Nebuchadnezzar, and from men he is driven, and he eats the herb as oxen, and his body is wet by the dew of the heavens, until his hair has become great as eagles, and his nails as birds.
Ia hora no, ua ko ia olelo maluna o Nebukaneza: ua kipakuia oia mai na kanaka aku, na ai iho no ia i ka mauu e like me na bipi kauo, ua pulu kona kino i ka hau o ka laui, a loloa kona hulu e like me na hulu o ka aeto, a o kona mau maiuu ua like me na maiuu o na manu.
34 “And at the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, have lifted up my eyes to the heavens, and my understanding returns to me, and I have blessed the Most High, and the Perpetual Living One I have praised and honored, whose dominion [is] a continuous dominion, and His kingdom with generation and generation;
I ka pau ana o ua mau la la, owau o Nebukaneza, ua leha ae au i kuu mau maka i ka lani, a hoi mai ia'u kuu ike; a hoomaikai aku au i ka Mea kiekie, hoonani aku au, a hoomana hoi i ka Mea e oia mau ana, ua mau loa kona alii ana, a o koua aupuni ia hanauna aku a ia hanauna aku.
35 and all who are dwelling on the earth are reckoned as nothing, and according to His will He is doing among the forces of the heavens and those dwelling on the earth, and there is none that claps with his hand and says to Him, What have You done?
A ua manaoia ko ka honua a pau he mea ole; ua hana no hoi oia e like me kona makemake mawaena o na puali o ka lani, a me ko ka honua; aole e hiki i kekahi ke hoopaa aku i kona lima, aole hoi e olelo aku ia ia, Heaha kau e hana nei?
36 At that time my understanding returns to me, and for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and my brightness return to me, and to me my counselors and my great men seek, and over my kingdom I have been made right, and abundant greatness has been added to me.
Ia manawa no ua hoi mai ia'u kuu manao; a me ka hanohano o ko'u aupuni, ua hoi mai ia'u kuu nani a me kuu naauao; a launa mai ia'u kuu, poe kakaolelo, a me ko'u poe kaukaualii; ua paa hou au ma kuu aupuni, a ua hoonui hoi ia kuu hanohano.
37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, am praising and exalting and honoring the King of the heavens, for all His works [are] truth, and His paths judgment, and those walking in pride He is able to humble.”
Ano owau o Nebukaneza ke hoonani aku nei au, ke hoolea aku hoi me ka mahalo i ke Alii o ka lani, o kana mau hana ua pau i ka oiaio, a o kona mau aoao ua pololei loa; a o ka poe e hele ana ma ka haaheo, e hiki no ia ia ke hoohaahaa iho ia lakou.
