Daniel 6
1 It pleased Daryavesh to set over the kingdom one hundred twenty satraps, who should be throughout the whole kingdom;
Svidje se Dariju te postavi nad carstvom sto i pedeset upravitelja da budu nad svijem carstvom;
2 and over them three administrators, of whom Daniel was one; that these satraps might give account to them, and that the king might not suffer loss.
A nad njima tri starješine, od kojih jedan bješe Danilo, kojima æe upravitelji davati raèune da ne bi caru bilo štete.
3 Then this Daniel was distinguished above the administrators and the satraps, because an extraordinary spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
A taj Danilo nadvišivaše starješine i upravitelje, jer u njemu bješe velik duh i car mišljaše da ga postavi nad svijem carstvom svojim.
4 Then the administrators and the satraps sought to find a charge against Daniel regarding the kingdom; but they could find no charge or fault, because he was faithful. Neither was there any error or fault found in him.
Tada starješine i upravitelji gledahu kako bi našli što da zabave Danilu radi carstva; ali ne mogahu naæi zabave ni pogrješke, jer bješe vjeran, i ne nalažaše se u njega pogrješke ni mane.
5 Then these men said, "We will not find any charge against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God."
Tada rekoše oni ljudi: neæemo naæi na toga Danila ništa, ako ne naðemo što na nj radi zakona Boga njegova.
6 Then these administrators and satraps assembled together to the king, and said this to him, "King Daryavesh, live forever.
Tada doðoše starješine i upravitelji k caru, i rekoše mu ovako: Darije care, da si živ dovijeka.
7 All the administrators of the kingdom, the deputies and the satraps, the counselors and the governors, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a strong decree, that whoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except of you, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
Sve starješine u carstvu, poglavari i upravitelji, vijeænici i vojvode dogovoriše se da se postavi carska naredba i oštra zabrana da ko bi se god zamolio za što kome god bogu ili èovjeku za trideset dana osim tebi, care, da se baci u jamu lavovsku.
8 Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be changed."
Zato, care, postavi tu zabranu i napiši da se ne može promijeniti, po zakonu Midskom i Persijskom, koji je nepromjenit.
9 Therefore king Daryavesh signed the writing and the decree.
I car Darije napisa knjigu i zabranu.
10 When Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house (now his windows were open in his chamber toward Jerusalem) and he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did before.
A Danilo kad dozna da je knjiga napisana, otide svojoj kuæi, gdje bijahu otvoreni prozori u njegovoj sobi prema Jerusalimu, i padaše na koljena svoja tri puta na dan i moljaše se i hvalu davaše Bogu svojemu kao što èinjaše prije.
11 Then these men assembled together, and found Daniel making petition and petition before his God.
Tada se sabraše oni ljudi, i naðoše Danila gdje se moli i pripada Bogu svojemu.
12 Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king's decree. "Haven't you signed a decree, that every man who shall make petition to any god or man within thirty days, except to you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?" The king answered, "The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be changed."
I otidoše te rekoše caru za carsku zabranu: nijesi li napisao zapovijest, da ko bi se god zamolio kome god bogu ili èovjeku za trideset dana, osim tebi, care, da se baci u jamu lavovsku? Car odgovori i reèe: tako je po zakonu Midskom i Persijskom, koji je nepromjenit.
13 Then they answered and said before the king, "That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, doesn't regard you, O king, nor the decree that you have signed, but makes his petition three times a day."
Tada odgovoriše i rekoše caru: Danilo, koji je izmeðu roblja Judina, ne haje za te, care, ni za zabranu koju si napisao, nego se moli tri puta na dan svojom molitvom.
14 Then the king, when he heard these words, was very displeased, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him. And he labored until the going down of the sun to rescue him.
Tada car èuvši to ožalosti se vrlo, i naumi da izbavi Danila, i truðaše se do zahoda sunèanoga da ga izbavi.
15 Then these men assembled together to the king, and said to the king, "Know, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians, that no decree nor statute which the king establishes may be changed."
Tada oni ljudi sabraše se kod cara i rekoše caru: znaj, care, da je zakon u Midijana i Persijana da se nikakva zabrana i naredba, koju postavi car, ne mijenja.
16 Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spoke and said to Daniel, "Your God whom you serve continually, he will deliver you."
Tada car reèe te dovedoše Danila i baciše ga u jamu lavovsku; i car progovori i reèe Danilu: Bog tvoj, kojemu bez prestanka služiš, neka te izbavi.
17 A stone was brought, and placed on the opening of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel.
I donesoše kamen i metnuše jami na vrata, i car ga zapeèati svojim prstenom i prstenom svojih knezova da se ništa ne promijeni za Danila.
18 Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were instruments of music brought before him. And his sleep fled from him.
Tada otide car u svoj dvor, i prenoæi ne jedavši niti dopustivši da mu se donese što èim bi se razveselio, i ne može zaspati.
19 Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste to the den of lions.
Potom car usta ujutru rano i otide brže k jami lavovskoj.
20 When he came near to the den to Daniel, he cried with a lamentable voice. The king spoke and said to Daniel, "Daniel, servant of the living God. Is your God, whom you serve continually, able to deliver you from the lions?"
I kad doðe k jami, viknu Danila žalosnijem glasom; i progovori car i reèe Danilu: Danilo, slugo Boga živoga, Bog tvoj, kojemu služiš bez prestanka, može li te izbaviti od lavova?
21 Then said Daniel to the king, "O king, live forever.
Tada Danilo reèe caru: care, da si živ dovijeka!
22 My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me; because before him innocence was found in me; and also before you, O king, have I done no wrong."
Bog moj posla anðela svojega i zatvori usta lavovima, te mi ne naudiše; jer se naðoh èist pred njim, a ni tebi, care, ne uèinih zla.
23 Then was the king exceedingly glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.
Tada se car veoma obradova tomu, i zapovjedi da izvade Danila iz jame. I izvadiše Danila iz jame, i ne naðe se rane na njemu, jer vjerova Bogu svojemu.
24 The king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions overpowered them, and broke all their bones in pieces, before they came to the bottom of the den.
Potom zapovjedi car, te dovedoše ljude koji bijahu optužili Danila, i baciše u jamu lavovsku njih, djecu njihovu i žene njihove; i još ne doðoše na dno jami, a lavovi ih zgrabiše i sve im kosti potrše.
25 Then king Daryavesh wrote to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who dwell in all the earth: "Peace be multiplied to you.
Tada car Darije pisa svijem narodima i plemenima i jezicima što življahu u svoj zemlji: mir da vam se umnoži.
26 I make a decree, that in all the dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God, and steadfast forever. His kingdom shall not be destroyed; and his dominion shall be to the end.
Od mene je zapovijest da se u svoj državi carstva mojega svak boji i straši Boga Danilova, jer je on Bog živi, koji ostaje dovijeka, i carstvo se njegovo neæe rasuti, i vlast æe njegova biti do kraja;
27 He delivers and rescues, and he works signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions."
On izbavlja i spasava, i èini znake i èudesa na nebu i na zemlji, on je izbavio Danila od sile lavovske.
28 So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Daryavesh, and in the reign of Koresh the Persian.
I taj Danilo bijaše sreæan za carovanja Darijeva i za carovanja Kira Persijanca.
