Daniel 6
1 It has been good before Darius, and he has established over the kingdom satraps—one hundred and twenty—that they may be throughout the whole kingdom,
Ni-no’ i Dariavese ty hañoriza’e mpifehe zato-tsy-roapolo amy fifeheañey hanitsifañe i fanjakàñey,
2 and three presidents higher than they, of whom Daniel [is] first, that these satraps may give to them an account, and the king have no loss.
le ambone’ iereo ty mpifeleke telo—raik’ am’ iereo t’i Daniele—vaho mitalily am’ iereo i mpifehe rey, soa tsy ho tsoborèñe i mpanjakay.
3 Then this Daniel has been overseer over the presidents and satraps, because that an excellent spirit [is] in him, and the king has thought to establish him over the whole kingdom.
T’i Daniele toy ty nisoheñe ambone’ ze hene mpifehe naho mpifeleke ty amy arofo tsitantane ama’ey; le sinafiri’ i mpanjakay te hanoe’e ambone’ i fifeheañey iaby.
4 Then the presidents and satraps have been seeking to find a cause of complaint against Daniel concerning the kingdom, and any cause of complaint and corruption they are not able to find, because that he [is] faithful, and any error and corruption have not been found in him.
Aa le pinai’ o mpifelekeo naho o mpifeheo ty hampitsikapy i Daniele am-pitoloña’e amy fifeheañey, fe tsy nahatendreke ty hikiniàñe aze ndra ze lila’e ty amy figahiña’ey, vaho tsy naharendrehan-kila ndra tahiñe.
5 Then these men are saying, “We do not find against this Daniel any cause of complaint, except we have found [it] against him in the Law of his God.”
Aa le hoe i ondaty rey, le lia’e tsy hahaonin-dilatse amy Daniele tia tika, naho tsy t’ie ho onin-tika amy lilin’ Añahare’ey avao.
6 Then these presidents and satraps have assembled near the king, and thus they are saying to him: “O King Darius, live for all ages!
Aa le nihitrihitry mb’amy mpanjakay mb’eo i mpifehe naho mpifeleke rey nanao ty hoe ama’e: Ry Dariavese mpanjaka, lava havelo.
7 Taken counsel have all the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counselors, and the governors, to establish a royal statute, and to strengthen an interdict, that any who seeks a petition from any god and man until thirty days, except of you, O king, is cast into a den of lions.
Songa mitrao-safiry o mpamele-pifeheañeo, o mpizakao, o mpifeheo, o beio, vaho o sefoo te honjoneñe ty tseim-panjakàñe hañatò te ze hihalaly aman-drahare ia’ ia ndra ama’ ondaty, naho tsy ama’o avao ampara’ te modo ty andro telopolo, ry mpanjaka, le havokovoko an-dakaton-diona ao.
8 Now, O king, you establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it is not to be changed, as a law of Media and Persia, that does not pass away.”
Aa le iantofo i tsey zay henaneo, ry mpanjaka, vaho soniavo o sokitseo tsy hiova, ty amy lili’ i Maday naho i Parase tsy mete mihotikey.
9 Therefore King Darius has signed the writing and interdict.
Le nanonia i sokitsey, hampijadoña’e ho lily, t’i Dariavese.
10 And Daniel, when he has known that the writing is signed, has gone up to his house, and the window being opened for him, in his upper chamber, toward Jerusalem, three times in a day he is kneeling on his knees, and praying, and confessing before his God, because that he was doing [it] before this.
Aa ie nifohi’ i Daniele te nisoniaveñe i sokitsey le nizilik’ añ’ anjomba’e ao; toe nisokake mb’e Ierosalaime i lalan-kede am-batsey, le nitongaleke re in-telo boak’andro, niloloke vaho nañandriañe añatrefan’ Añahare’e eo amy t’ie lili’e.
11 Then these men have assembled, and found Daniel praying and pleading grace before his God;
Aa le nifanontone indaty rey naho naharendreke te niloloke vaho nihalaly aman’ Añahare’e t’i Daniele.
12 then they have come near, indeed, they are saying before the king concerning the king’s interdict: “Have you not signed an interdict, that any man who seeks from any god and man until thirty days, except of you, O king, is cast into a den of lions?” The king has answered and said, “The thing [is] certain as a law of Media and Persia, that does not pass away.”
Niharinea’ iereo amy zao i mpanjakay le nitalily i tseim-panjakañey: Tsy vaho nañatò ty tsey hao ry mpanjaka, te ze hihalaly aman’ Añahare’ iaia ndra ama’ ondaty naho tsy ama’o avao añate’ ty andro telopolo ro havokovoko an-dakaton-diona ao? Hoe ty natoi’ i mpanjakay: To i hoe zay ty amy lili’ o nte-Maday naho nte-Parase tsy mihotikeo.
13 Then they have answered, indeed, they are saying before the king, that, “Daniel, who [is] of the sons of the expulsion of Judah, has not placed on you, O king, [any] regard, nor on the interdict that you have signed, and three times in a day he is seeking his petition.”
Aa le hoe ty natoi’ iareo añatrefa’ i mpanjakay, Tsy mañaoñe azo t’i Daniele, anam-pandrohiza’ o nte-Iehodào, ndra i tsey najado’oy, te mone mihalaly in-telo ami’ty andro.
14 Then the king, when he has heard the matter, is greatly displeased at himself, and on Daniel he has set the heart to deliver him, and until the going up of the sun he was arranging to deliver him.
Ie nahajanjiñe i entañe zay i mpanjakay le loho navesatse ama’e naho napite’e amy Daniele ty arofo’e hañaha aze; vaho nifanehak’ ampara’ te tsofots’ andro hañafaha’e.
15 Then these men have assembled near the king, and are saying to the king, “Know, O king, that the law of Media and Persia [is] that any interdict and statute that the king establishes is not to be changed.”
Fe niropak’ amy mpanjakay indaty rey, nanao ty hoe amy mpanjakay, Mahafohina, ry mpanjaka, inay ty lili’ Maday naho i Parase te tsy mete ovaeñe ze tsey ndra fañè najado’ i mpanjakay.
16 Then the king has spoken, and they have brought Daniel, and have cast [him] into a den of lions. The king has answered and said to Daniel, “Your God, whom you are serving continually, delivers you Himself.”
Aa le nandily i mpanjakay, le nasese mb’eo t’i Daniele, vaho navokovoko an-dakaton-diona ao. Nanao ty hoe amy Daniele amy zao i mpanjakay: Handrombak’ azo abey t’i Andrianañahare toroñe’o nainai’e.
17 And a stone has been brought and placed at the mouth of the den, and the king has sealed it with his signet, and with the signet of his great men, that the purpose is not changed concerning Daniel.
Nendeseñe amy zao ty vato, le nikapefeñe ty vava’ i lakatoy; vaho vinoli-tombo’ i mpanjakay amy bange fitombo’ey naho ami’ty fitombo’ o roandria’eo soa tsy hovaeñe ty amy Daniele.
18 Then the king has gone to his palace, and he has passed the night fasting, and dahavan have not been brought up before him, and his sleep has fled [from] off him.
Noly añ’ anjomba’e ao i mpanjakay, nandre tsy nikama; le tsy nañendesan-draha, vaho nihànkañe ama’e ty rotse.
19 Then the king rises in the early morning, at the light, and he has gone in haste to the den of lions;
Aa le nañaleñaleñe i mpanjakay nitroatse te nangararak’ atiñana vaho nihitrihitry mb’an-dakato’ o lionao mb’eo.
20 and at his coming near to the den, to Daniel, with a grieved voice, he cries. The king has answered and said to Daniel, “O Daniel, servant of the living God, your God, whom you are serving continually, is He able to deliver you from the lions?”
Ie nandoak’ amy lakatoy eo, le nikoik’ an-kalonjeram-piarañanañañe amy Daniele, le hoe ty napaza’ i mpanjakay amy Daniele, ry Daniele mpitoron’ Andrianañahare veloñe, naharombak’ azo amo lionao hao t’i Andrianañahare fitoroña’o nainai’e?
21 Then Daniel has spoken with the king: “O king, live for all ages:
Le hoe t’i Daniele amy mpanjakay, lava ohatse, ry mpanjaka;
22 my God has sent His messenger, and has shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not injured me: because that before Him purity has been found in me; and also before you, O king, injury I have not done.”
Nañirake ty anjeli’e t’i Andrianañahareko; nampitsiteke ty vava’ o lionao tsy hijoy ahy, amy t’ie nalio hakeo añatrefa’e, naho toe tsy nandilatse ama’o iraho ry mpanjaka.
23 Then was the king very glad for him, and he has commanded Daniel to be taken up out of the den, and Daniel has been taken up out of the den, and no injury has been found in him, because he has believed in his God.
Nivaranehak’ amy zao i mpanjakay naho linili’e te avotañe amy lakatoy t’i Daniele. Aa le nakareñe an-dakato ao t’i Daniele, vaho tsy nizoem-pere amy t’ie niato aman’ Añahare’e.
24 And the king has spoken, and they have brought those men who had accused Daniel, and to the den of lions they have cast them, they, their sons, and their wives; and they have not come to the lower part of the den until the lions have power over them, and all their bones they have broken small.
Linili’ i mpanjakay te hampiatrefeñe aze o nanisý i Danieleo. Le fonga navokovoko amy lakaton-dionay naho o vali’eo rekets’ o ana’eo. Ie mbe tsy niponak’ an-tane’ i lakatoy iereo le fa niambotraha’ o lionao vaho pinekapekañ’ iaby o taola’eo.
25 Then Darius the king has written to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the land: “Your peace be great!
Nanokitse amo hene ondaty naho fifeheañe vaho fameleke mpimoneñe amy taneio t’i Dariavese Mpanjaka: Ampitomboeñe ama’ areo ty fañanintsiñe.
26 From before me a decree is made, that in every dominion of my kingdom they are trembling and fearing before the God of Daniel, for He [is] the living God, and abiding for all ages, and His kingdom that which [is] not destroyed, and His dominion [is] to the end.
Izaho ro mitsey aman’ ndra aia’aia amo fonga fifelehañe am-pifeheakoo: asoao te hinevenevetse am-pañeveñañe añatrefan’ Añahare’ i Daniele ondatio, Ie t’i Andrianañahare veloñe nainai’e le tsim-bia ho rebake i fifehea’ey naho i fifeleha’ey nainai’e donia.
27 A deliverer, and rescuer, and doer of signs and wonders in the heavens and in earth [is] He who has delivered Daniel from the paw of the lions.”
Mpandrombake re, Mpañaha, naho Mpanao viloñe tsitantane vaho mitoloñe raha mahalatsa andikerañe ao naho an-tane atoy. Ie ty nandrombake i Daniele ami’ty haozara’ o lionao.
28 And this Daniel has prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
Nitahieñe t’i Daniele am-pifeleha’ i Dariavesey naho am-pifehea’ i Korese nte-Parase.
