< Daniel 5 >

1 Belshazzar the king has made a great feast to one thousand of his great men, and before the one thousand he is drinking wine;
Kum sotthim jouvin, Belshazzar lengpa’n agamsung’a milen milal ho sangkhat toh, golvah loupitah khat abol in, chuleh amaho chutoh ju adonkhomuvin ahi.
2 Belshazzar has said—while tasting the wine—to bring in the vessels of gold and of silver that his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken from the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, that the king may drink with them, and his great men, his wives, and his concubines.
Belshezzar chun ju adon pum’in, apa Nebuchadnezzar in, Jerusalem Hou-in sunga kon’a anapohdoh sana leh dangka khon ho chu ju donna a man dingin thu apetai. Hiche khon ho chu, ajite leh athaikem ho chuleh milen milal hotoh ju donna-a nei ding ati ahi.
3 Then they have brought in the vessels of gold that had been taken out of the temple of the house of God that [is] in Jerusalem, and the king and his great men, his wives and his concubines, have drunk with them;
Chu in Jerusalem Pathen Hou-in sung’a kon’a kipodoh sana leh dangka khon ho chu ahin choi doh’un, lengpa leh ajite ho, athaikem ho, chuleh milen milal hon, ju donnan amang tauve.
4 they have drunk wine, and have praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of bronze, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
Hitichun, amahon sana leh dangka khon ho’a chun ju adon’un, chuleh sana, dangka, sum-eng leh thih’a kisemthu doilim pathen ho chu nasatah in avahchoi jeng tauvin ahi.
5 In that hour fingers of a man’s hand have come forth, and they are writing in front of the lampstand, on the plaster of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king is seeing the extremity of the hand that is writing;
Hichepettah chun, amahon, leng inpi sung’a meivah khom tun nakom’abang kiloijol lai achun, mihem khut khat ahung kilah amu uvin, hiche khut jung chun bang’a lekhajem ahin jihtai. Hichu Lengpa ama tah in jong amutan ahi.
6 then the king’s countenance has changed, and his thoughts trouble him, and the joints of his loins are loosed, and his knees are striking against one another.
Hichun lengpa maiso akikhel deltan, kichat leh tijat in alungsung alodimtan ahi. Atahsa aki thing in chuleh akhup leh akeng ho jong akihot lhu jeng tan ahi.
7 The king calls mightily, to bring up the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king has answered and said to the wise men of Babylon, that, “Any man who reads this writing, and shows me its interpretation, he puts on purple, and a bracelet of gold [is] on his neck, and he rules third in the kingdom.”
Lengpa aping jah jeng in, ai-lhim them ho, ahsi-lekha them ho, vangsan them ho, a-ang sung’a ahin koukhom diuvin thupeh aboltai. Hichun Lengpa’n Babylon miching mithem ho jah’a chun asei tai. “Koi hijong leh, hiche lekha jem kijih hi asimdoh thei aum’a chuleh ipi kiseina ahi phongdoh thei aumleh, Leng inpi kijabolna ponsandup kisilpeh ding chuleh angong’a sana-khivui ki opeh ding ahi. Chuleh ama chu, ka lenggam sung’a vaipoh luboh thum channa-a ka pansah ding ahi” ati.
8 Then all the wise men of the king are coming up, and they are not able to read the writing, and to make known the interpretation to the king;
Chuin alenggam sung’a miching mithem ho chu ahungkhom soh tauve. Ahivang in, bang’a kisun lekhajem chu alah’uva khat beh in jong asimthei pouvin, chuleh ipi kiseina ham jong ahedoh thei pouve.
9 then King Belshazzar is greatly troubled, and his countenance is changing in him, and his great men are perplexed.
Chuin Lengpa chu atija lheh jengin, amaiso kikhel leuvin akichatan ahi. Chuleh ama noija milen milal ho jong chu alung dong gamtauvin ahi.
10 The queen, on account of the words of the king and his great men, has come up to the banquet-house. The queen has answered and said, “O king, live for all ages; do not let your thoughts trouble you, nor your countenance be changed:
Chuin hiche thilsoh chu, Lengnun ajah doh phat in, amatah lengpa golvah bolna insung’a alheilut loijin, lengpa jah’a aseitai.” Lengpa damsot in! Na lim na maiso kikhel leuvin, tija behseh hih in.
11 there is a man in your kingdom in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods: and in the days of your father, light, and understanding, and wisdom—as the wisdom of the gods—was found in him; and your father King Nebuchadnezzar, chief of the scribes, enchanters, Chaldeans, soothsayers, established him—your father, O king—
Na gamsung’a, Pathen theng lhagaovin achenden mi khat aum nai. Napa, Nebuchadnezzar khang’a jong hiche mipa chung’a hi, lung-mitvahna, thil hetkhenna leh Pathen ho chihna nei ahi, kimudohsa ahi. Hiche jeh’a chu napa Nebuchadnezzar lengpa’n, ama chu Babylon gamsung pumpia mitpheldoi them ho, ai-lhim them ho, ahsi-lekha them ho, chule vangsan them ho jouse chung’a pipu’a anapansah ahi.
12 because that an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and showing of enigmas, and loosing of knots was found in him, in Daniel, whose name the king made Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and the interpretation he shows.”
Hiche mipa Daniel tiajong kihe, lengpan Belteshazzar asahpa chu, Pathen’a kon thil suhto themna nasatah nei, thuguh hetdoh theina leh hilchetna chuleh Pathen chihna dimset ahi. Aman mang aledoh theijin, chuleh thuboi hahsa jong asunavah thei jin ahi. Ama chu kouvin, aman bang’a kijih chu ipi ahi asim doh thei ding chuleh aledoh thei ding ahi” ati.
13 Then Daniel has been caused to come up before the king; the king has answered and said to Daniel, “You are that Daniel who [is] of the sons of the expulsion of Judah, whom my father the king brought in out of Judah?
Chuin Daniel chu lengpa angsung’a ahin puilut tauve. Lengpan Daniel jah’a, “Nang hi, kapa Nebuchadnezzar lengpan Judah gam’a kon’a ahin kaimang sohchang ho lah’a khat, Daniel kitipa chu na him?
14 And I have heard of you, that the spirit of the gods [is] in you, and light, and understanding, and excellent wisdom have been found in you.
Keiman, nachung’a Pathen theng lhagao achengin, nangman sunggil lungmitvah naneijin, thil hetkhenna chihna dimset naneije tithu kajai.
15 And now, caused to come up before me have been the wise men, the enchanters, that they may read this writing, and its interpretation to cause me to know: and they are not able to show the interpretation of the thing:
Ka gam sung’a miching ho leh ailhim them hon, hiche bang’a kijih lekha jem hi asimthei louvu ahi tai. Tun nangin sim inlang, ipi kiseina ham nei seipeh tan.
16 and I have heard of you, that you are able to give interpretations, and to loose knots: now, behold—you are able to read the writing, and its interpretation to cause me to know—purple you put on, and a bracelet of gold [is] on your neck, and you rule third in the kingdom.”
Nang in hiche hohi aledoh theina nahen, chuleh thuboi hahsa hojong na sunavah theije tithu kana jai. Hijeh chun, hiche hohi sim inlang, ipi kiseina ham nei ledohpeh in, chutileh nangma leng inpi jabolna ponsandup nakisil peh ding, sana khivui nangong’a naki-opeh ding, chuteng ka lenggam sung’a vaihom sangpen athum na-a napan ding ahi,’’ ati.
17 Then Daniel has answered and said before the king, “Your gifts be to yourself, and give your fee to another; nevertheless, the writing I read to the king, and the interpretation I cause him to know;
Chuin Daniel in lengpa chu adonbut in, “Kipaman thilpeh napeh ding chu nangman kikoi tan, ahilou leh midang khat pedoh jeng in. Ahin, bang’a kijih hichehi ipi kiseina ham, keiman na seipeh nang’e.
18 you, O king, God Most High, a kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and honor, gave to your father Nebuchadnezzar:
Vo lengpa, napa Nebuchadnezzar lengpa chu, Chungnungpen Pathenin leng achansah a, letna leh loupina chuleh jabolna apeh ahi.
19 and because of the greatness that He gave to him, all peoples, nations, and languages were trembling and fearing before him: whom he willed he was slaying, and whom he willed he was keeping alive, and whom he willed he was raising up, and whom he willed he was making low;
Ama chu Pathen in loupitah’a atun jeh in, chitin namtin’a miho leh pao tintang thoho jouse, a-ang sung’a akithing’un akichalheh jeng’un ahi. Aman atha nom athat in, chuleh ahinghoi nom chu ahinghoiye. Aman ajabol nom ajabolin, chuleh asuhnem nom chu asunem in ahi.
20 and when his heart was high, and his spirit was strong to act proudly, he has been caused to come down from the throne of his kingdom, and his glory they have caused to pass away from him,
Ahivang in, alungchang leh alungthim’a kiletsahna adim tan, ama akichoi sang phat in, aleng mun’a kon’in akikai lha tan, chuleh aloupina jouse jong aki lahmang peh tai.
21 and he is driven from the sons of men, and his heart has been like with the beasts, and with the wild donkeys [is] his dwelling; they cause him to eat the herb like oxen, and by the dew of the heavens is his body wet, until he has known that God Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and whom He wills He raises up over it.
Chuin ama chu mihem chenna lah’a konin aki delmang in, alungthim jong gamsa lungthim bangin akikhelpeh in, gamlah’a gamsangan hotoh ahingkhom tai. Aman bong bang in hamhing anen, chuleh van’a kon daitwi hunglha chu adouvin, Pathen in leiset’a lenggam jouse chung’a vai ahom in, adei dei leng’a atunji ahi, ti ahetdoh kahsen, gamsa bang in ahing tan ahi.
22 And you, his son, Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though all this you have known;
Nangma, napa gou-loson achapa nahi, vo Belshazzar, nangin hiche hohi nahet vang'in, nangman kineosahna halcha jong nanei poi.
23 and against the Lord of the heavens you have lifted up yourself; and the vessels of His house they have brought in before you, and you, and your great men, your wives, and your concubines, are drinking wine with them, and gods of silver, and of gold, of bronze, of iron, of wood, and of stone, that are not seeing, nor hearing, nor knowing, you have praised: and the God in whose hand [is] your breath, and all your ways, Him you have not honored.
Nangman kiletsahtah in van Pathen chu nadouvin, Pathen Hou-in’a kon hung kipodoh khon ho chu namong tai. Nangleh na-milen na milal te, najite leh na thaikem hon, hiche khon hochu ju don nan namang uvin, sana, dangka, sum-eng, thih, thing leh songho’a kisem ima hethei lou, khomu lou leh kho jalou semthu pathen ho chu na vahchoi choi jeng’un ahi.
24 Then from before Him is the extremity of the hand sent, and the writing is noted down;
Hijeh a chu Pathen a kon’a hiche khut hi hung kilhang doh’a, hiche lekha jem hi ahin jih ahi.
25 and this [is] the writing that is noted down: Numbered, Numbered, Weighed, and Divided.
Hichea lekha jem kijih chu hiche ahi: MENE, MENE, TEKEL chuleh PARSIN
26 This [is] the interpretation of the thing: Numbered—God has numbered your kingdom, and has finished it.
Chuleh hiche thucheng ho kiledohna chu hiti ahi: MENE kiti hi, Pathen in nalengvaipohna asim tohsa ahi tan, abeina ding nikho hung lhung ahi tai.
27 Weighed—You are weighed in the balances, and have been found lacking.
TEKEL kiti hi, nangma thiltena kilepto bang’a, nangma kilepto’a na kitetohsa ahitan, nalhingjou tapoi.
28 Divided—Your kingdom is divided, and it has been given to the Medes and Persians.”
PARSIN kiti hi, na lenggam hi kehni kiso’a kihom khen ahitai. Mede mite leh Persia mite kihop peh ahitai.
29 Then Belshazzar has spoken, and they have clothed Daniel with purple, and a bracelet of gold [is] on his neck, and they have proclaimed concerning him that he is the third ruler in the kingdom.
Chuin Belshazzar thupeh dungjuiyin, Daniel chu ponsandup asil peh’un, sana khivui angong’a a-opeh’un chuleh ama chu lenggam pumpia vaipo pipu sangpen athumna in aphong doh tauve.
30 In that night Belshazzar king of the Chaldeans is slain,
Chuche jan ma ma chun, Babylonte lengpa Belshazzar chu athat tauve.
31 and Darius the Mede has received the kingdom when a son of sixty-two years.
Chuleh Mede mipa Darius chun, akum somgup-le-ni alhin in, hiche lenggam chu akilah tan ahi.
