Daniel 6
1 It pleased Daryavesh to set over the kingdom one hundred twenty satraps, who should be throughout the whole kingdom;
| حَسُنَ عِنْدَ دَارِيُّوسَ أَنْ يُوَلِّيَ عَلَى ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ مِئَةً وَعِشْرِينَ مَرْزُبَانًا يَكُونُونَ عَلَى ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ كُلِّهَا. | ١ |
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.
| وَعَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ ثَلَاثَةَ وُزَرَاءَ أَحَدُهُمْ دَانِيآلُ، لِتُؤَدِّيَ ٱلْمَرَازِبَةُ إِلَيْهِمِ ٱلْحِسَابَ فَلَا تُصِيبَ ٱلْمَلِكَ خَسَارَةٌ. | ٢ |
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.
| فَفَاقَ دَانِيآلُ هَذَا عَلَى ٱلْوُزَرَاءِ وَٱلْمَرَازِبَةِ، لِأَنَّ فِيهِ رُوحًا فَاضِلَةً. وَفَكَّرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فِي أَنْ يُوَلِّيَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ كُلِّهَا. | ٣ |
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.
| ثُمَّ إِنَّ ٱلْوُزَرَاءَ وَٱلْمَرَازِبَةَ كَانُوا يَطْلُبُونَ عِلَّةً يَجِدُونَهَا عَلَى دَانِيآلَ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ، فَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَجِدُوا عِلَّةً وَلَا ذَنْبًا، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ أَمِينًا وَلَمْ يُوجَدْ فِيهِ خَطَأٌ وَلَا ذَنْبٌ. | ٤ |
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."
| فَقَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ: «لَا نَجِدُ عَلَى دَانِيآلَ هَذَا عِلَّةً إِلَّا أَنْ نَجِدَهَا مِنْ جِهَةِ شَرِيعَةِ إِلَهِهِ». | ٥ |
6 Then these administrators and satraps assembled together to the king, and said this to him, "King Daryavesh, live forever.
| حِينَئِذٍ ٱجْتَمَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْوُزَرَاءُ وَٱلْمَرَازِبَةُ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالُوا لَهُ هَكَذَا: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ دَارِيُوسُ، عِشْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ! | ٦ |
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.
| إِنَّ جَمِيعَ وُزَرَاءِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ وَٱلشِّحَنِ وَٱلْمَرَازِبَةِ وَٱلْمُشِيرِينَ وَٱلْوُلَاةِ قَدْ تَشَاوَرُوا عَلَى أَنْ يَضَعُوا أَمْرًا مَلَكِيًّا وَيُشَدِّدُوا نَهْيًا، بِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَطْلُبُ طِلْبَةً حَتَّى ثَلَاثِينَ يَوْمًا مِنْ إِلَهٍ أَوْ إِنْسَانٍ إِلَّا مِنْكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، يُطْرَحُ فِي جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ. | ٧ |
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."
| فَثَبِّتِ ٱلْآنَ ٱلنَّهْيَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، وَأَمْضِ ٱلْكِتَابَةَ لِكَيْ لَا تَتَغَيَّرَ كَشَرِيعَةِ مَادِي وَفَارِسَ ٱلَّتِي لَا تُنْسَخُ». | ٨ |
9 Therefore king Daryavesh signed the writing and the decree.
| لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَمْضَى ٱلْمَلِكُ دَارِيُوسُ ٱلْكِتَابَةَ وَٱلنَّهْيَ. | ٩ |
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.
| فَلَمَّا عَلِمَ دَانِيآلُ بِإِمْضَاءِ ٱلْكِتَابَةِ ذَهَبَ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ، وَكُواهُ مَفْتُوحَةٌ فِي عُلِّيَّتِهِ نَحْوَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَجَثَا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَصَلَّى وَحَمَدَ قُدَّامَ إِلَهِهِ كَمَا كَانَ يَفْعَلُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ. | ١٠ |
11 Then these men assembled together, and found Daniel making petition and petition before his God.
| فَٱجْتَمَعَ حِينَئِذٍ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ فَوَجَدُوا دَانِيآلَ يَطْلُبُ وَيَتَضَرَّعُ قُدَّامَ إِلَهِهِ. | ١١ |
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."
| فَتَقَدَّمُوا وَتَكَلَّمُوا قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي نَهْيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ: «أَلَمْ تُمْضِ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ نَهْيًا بِأَنَّ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ يَطْلُبُ مِنْ إِلَهٍ أَوْ إِنْسَانٍ حَتَّى ثَلَاثِينَ يَوْمًا إِلَّا مِنْكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ يُطْرَحُ فِي جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ؟» فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ: «ٱلْأَمْرُ صَحِيحٌ كَشَرِيعَةِ مَادِي وَفَارِسَ ٱلَّتِي لَا تُنْسَخُ». | ١٢ |
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."
| حِينَئِذٍ أَجَابُوا وَقَالُوا قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ: «إِنَّ دَانِيآلَ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ بَنِي سَبْيِ يَهُوذَا لَمْ يَجْعَلْ لَكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱعْتِبَارًا وَلَا لِلنَّهْيِ ٱلَّذِي أَمْضَيْتَهُ، بَلْ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ يَطْلُبُ طِلْبَتَهُ». | ١٣ |
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.
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱغْتَاظَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ جِدًّا، وَجَعَلَ قَلْبَهُ عَلَى دَانِيآلَ لِيُنَجِّيَهُ، وَٱجْتَهَدَ إِلَى غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ لِيُنْقِذَهُ. | ١٤ |
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."
| فَٱجْتَمَعَ أُولَئِكَ ٱلرِّجَالُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالُوا لِلْمَلِكِ: «ٱعْلَمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ أَنَّ شَرِيعَةَ مَادِي وَفَارِسَ هِيَ أَنَّ كُلَّ نَهْيٍ أَوْ أَمْرٍ يَضَعُهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ لَا يَتَغَيَّرُ». | ١٥ |
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."
| حِينَئِذٍ أَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فَأَحْضَرُوا دَانِيآلَ وَطَرَحُوهُ فِي جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ. أَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ لِدَانِيآلَ: «إِنَّ إِلَهَكَ ٱلَّذِي تَعْبُدُهُ دَائِمًا هُوَ يُنَجِّيكَ». | ١٦ |
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.
| وَأُتِيَ بِحَجَرٍ وَوُضِعَ عَلَى فَمِ ٱلْجُبِّ وَخَتَمَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ بِخَاتِمِهِ وَخَاتِمِ عُظَمَائِهِ، لِئَلَّا يَتَغَيَّرَ ٱلْقَصْدُ فِي دَانِيآلَ. | ١٧ |
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.
| حِينَئِذٍ مَضَى ٱلْمَلِكُ إِلَى قَصْرِهِ وَبَاتَ صَائِمًا، وَلَمْ يُؤْتَ قُدَّامَهُ بِسَرَارِيهِ وَطَارَ عَنْهُ نَوْمُهُ. | ١٨ |
19 Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste to the den of lions.
| ثُمَّ قَامَ ٱلْمَلِكُ بَاكِرًا عِنْدَ ٱلْفَجْرِ وَذَهَبَ مُسْرِعًا إِلَى جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ. | ١٩ |
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?"
| فَلَمَّا ٱقْتَرَبَ إِلَى ٱلْجُبِّ نَادَى دَانِيآلَ بِصَوْتٍ أَسِيفٍ. أَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ لِدَانِيآلَ: «يَا دَانِيآلُ عَبْدَ ٱللهِ ٱلْحَيِّ، هَلْ إِلَهُكَ ٱلَّذِي تَعْبُدُهُ دَائِمًا قَدِرَ عَلَى أَنْ يُنَجِّيَكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُسُودِ؟» | ٢٠ |
21 Then said Daniel to the king, "O king, live forever.
| فَتَكَلَّمَ دَانِيآلُ مَعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ: «يَا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، عِشْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ! | ٢١ |
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."
| إِلَهِي أَرْسَلَ مَلَاكَهُ وَسَدَّ أَفْوَاهَ ٱلْأُسُودِ فَلَمْ تَضُرَّنِي، لِأَنِّي وُجِدْتُ بَرِيئًا قُدَّامَهُ، وَقُدَّامَكَ أَيْضًا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، لَمْ أَفْعَلْ ذَنْبًا». | ٢٢ |
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.
| حِينَئِذٍ فَرِحَ ٱلْمَلِكُ بِهِ، وَأَمَرَ بِأَنْ يُصْعَدَ دَانِيآلُ مِنَ ٱلْجُبِّ. فَأُصْعِدَ دَانِيآلُ مِنَ ٱلْجُبِّ وَلَمْ يُوجَدْ فِيهِ ضَرَرٌ، لِأَنَّهُ آمَنَ بِإِلَهِهِ. | ٢٣ |
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.
| فَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فَأَحْضَرُوا أُولَئِكَ ٱلرِّجَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱشْتَكَوْا عَلَى دَانِيآلَ وَطَرَحُوهُمْ فِي جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ هُمْ وَأَوْلَادَهُمْ وَنِسَاءَهُمْ. وَلَمْ يَصِلُوا إِلَى أَسْفَلِ ٱلْجُبِّ حَتَّى بَطَشَتْ بِهِمِ ٱلْأُسُودُ وَسَحَقَتْ كُلَّ عِظَامِهِمْ. | ٢٤ |
25 Then king Daryavesh wrote to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who dwell in all the earth: "Peace be multiplied to you.
| ثُمَّ كَتَبَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَارِيُّوسُ إِلَى كُلِّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ وَٱلْأُمَمِ وَٱلْأَلْسِنَةِ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا: «لِيَكْثُرْ سَلَامُكُمْ. | ٢٥ |
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.
| مِنْ قِبَلِي صَدَرَ أَمْرٌ بِأَنَّهُ فِي كُلِّ سُلْطَانِ مَمْلَكَتِي يَرْتَعِدُونَ وَيَخَافُونَ قُدَّامَ إِلَهِ دَانِيآلَ، لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلْإِلَهُ ٱلْحَيُّ ٱلْقَيُّومُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَمَلَكُوتُهُ لَنْ يَزُولَ وَسُلْطَانُهُ إِلَى ٱلْمُنْتَهَى. | ٢٦ |
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."
| هُوَ يُنَجِّي وَيُنْقِذُ وَيَعْمَلُ ٱلْآيَاتِ وَٱلْعَجَائِبَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَفِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. هُوَ ٱلَّذِي نَجَّى دَانِيآلَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْأُسُودِ». | ٢٧ |
28 So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Daryavesh, and in the reign of Koresh the Persian.
| فَنَجَحَ دَانِيآلُ هَذَا فِي مُلْكِ دَارِيُّوسَ وَفِي مُلْكِ كُورَشَ ٱلْفَارِسِيِّ. | ٢٨ |
