Daniel 2
1 In the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams; and his spirit was troubled, and his sleep went from him.
Nebuchadnezzar loe siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hnetto naah, amang to sak, zithaih palung a tawnh pongah, iip thai ai.
2 Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the enchanters, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, to tell the king his dreams. So they came in and stood before the king.
Siangpahrang ih amang thuih han ih, miklet kop kaminawk, banpadae khet kop kaminawk, lungh aah kop kaminawk hoi Khaldian ih palungha kaminawk to kawk hanah lok a paek.
3 The king said to them, "I have had a dream, and my spirit is anxious to understand the dream."
Siangpahrang mah nihcae khaeah, Amang maeto ka sak, amang to ka panoek ai pongah zithaih palungthin ka tawnh, tiah a naa.
4 Then spoke the Chaldeans to the king in the Aramaic language, "O king, live forever: tell your servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation."
To naah cakaeh khet kop kaminawk mah siangpahrang to Syria lok hoiah, Aw siangpahrang na hinglung sawk nasoe! Na tamnanawk khaeah amang to thui ah, kaicae mah kang leh pae o han hmang, tiah a naa o.
5 The king answered the Chaldeans, "The thing is gone from me: if you do not make known to me the dream and its interpretation, you shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a rubbish heap.
Siangpahrang mah cakaeh khet kop kaminawk khaeah, Hae tiah lok ka takroek boeh; ka mang hae nang panoek o sak ai moe, nang leh pae o thai ai nahaeloe, aboengh aboengh ah kang takroek o moe, na imnawk doeh angpop sut maiphu baktiah ka sak han.
6 But if you show the dream and its interpretation, you shall receive from me gifts and rewards and great honor: therefore show me the dream and its interpretation."
Toe ka mang hae nang panoek o sak moe, nang leh pae o thaih nahaeloe, kai khae hoi hnuk han koi tangqum hoi athonawk to na hnuk o pacoengah, kalen parai pakoehhaih to na hnu o tih; to pongah ka mang hoi a thuih koehhaih to na thui oh, tiah a naa.
7 They answered the second time and said, "Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation."
To naah nihcae mah, Siangpahrang mah a tamnanawk khaeah amang to thui nasoe, kaicae mah amang kang leh pae o han, tiah a naa o let.
8 The king answered, "I know of a certainty that you would gain time, because you see the thing is gone from me.
To naah siangpahrang mah, Lok takroekhaih ka sak boeh, tiah na panoek o pongah, atue akra han ih ni na sak o, tito ka panoek.
9 But if you do not make known to me the dream, there is but one law for you; for you have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, until such time that things might change. Therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that you can show me its interpretation."
Amang nang thui o ai nahaeloe, nangcae han lok takroekhaih maeto khue ni oh boeh; atue akra hanah alinghaih hoi amsawnlok thuih han ih ni na poek o boeh; to pongah amang to na thui oh, to naah ni amang nang leh pae o thaih, tiah ka panoek tih, tiah a naa.
10 The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, "There is not a man on the earth who can show the king's matter, because no king, lord, or ruler, has asked such a thing of any magician, or enchanter, or Chaldean.
Cakaeh khet kop kaminawk mah siangpahrang khaeah, Siangpahrang mah hnuk ih hmuennawk kathui thaih kami long nuiah mi doeh om ai; kawbaktih siangpahrang, angraeng hoi ukkung mah doeh to baktih hmuennawk to miklet kop kami, cakaeh khet kop kami hoi lungh aah kop kaminawk khaeah dueng vai ai.
11 It is a rare thing that the king requires, and there is no other who can show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh."
Siangpahrang mah dueng ih lok loe karai parai hmuen ah oh, taksa ah kaom ai sithawnawk khue mah ai ah loe, mi mah doeh siangpahrang hma ah thui thai mak ai, tiah a naa o.
12 For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
To lok to anih mah thaih naah siangpahrang loe paroeai palungphui moe, Babylon prae thungah kaom palungha kaminawk hum boih hanah lok a paek.
13 So the decree went forth, and the wise men were to be killed; and they sought Daniel and his companions to be killed.
Palungha kaminawk hum hanah lok takroek boeh pongah, nihcae mah Daniel hoi anih ih ampuinawk doeh hum hanah pakrong o.
14 Then Daniel returned an answer with counsel and prudence to Arioch the captain of the king's guard, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon;
Babylon prae thung ih palungha kaminawk hum han kacaeh, siangpahrang toepkung misatuh angraeng Ariok to Daniel mah palunghahaih hoiah lokdueng;
15 he answered Arioch the king's captain, "Why is the decree so urgent from the king?" Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.
anih mah Ariok khaeah siangpahrang toepkung misatuh angraeng, tipongah siangpahrang mah karangah lokpaekhaih to sak loe? tiah a naa. To naah Ariok mah Daniel khaeah, Kangcoeng tangcae hmuen kawng to thuih pae.
16 Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would appoint him a time, and he would show the king the interpretation.
To naah Daniel mah siangpahrang khaeah caeh moe, anih ih amang leh pae hanah atue to hnik.
17 Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions:
To pacoengah Daniel loe angmah im ah amlaem moe, to tiah kaom hmuen to ampuinawk ah kaom Hananiah, Mishael hoi Azariah khae ah thuih pae:
18 that they would seek mercy from the God of heaven concerning this secret; that Daniel and his companions should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
Daniel hoi anih ih ampuinawk mah Babylon prae thung ih palungha kaminawk hoi nawnto hum han ai ah, hae panoek thai ai ih hmuen pongah van Sithaw khaeah tahmen hnikhaih lawkthui o si, tiah a naa.
19 Then was the secret revealed to Daniel in a vision of the night. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
Aqum ah loe panoek thai ai ih hmuen hnuksakhaih to Daniel khaeah amtueng pae. To naah Daniel mah van Sithaw to pakoeh.
20 Daniel answered, "Blessed be the name of God forever and ever; for wisdom and might are his.
Daniel mah, palunghahaih hoi thacakhaih loe anih ih ni: Sithaw ih ahmin loe dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to pakoehaih om nasoe:
21 He changes the times and the seasons; he removes kings, and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those who have understanding;
Anih mah ni atue hoi khotuenawk to paqoi; siangpahrangnawk to takhoe moe, siangpahrangnawk to a suek; palungha kami khaeah palunghahaih to a paek moe, panoek thaihaih tawn kaminawk khaeah panoekhaih to a paek:
22 he reveals the deep and secret things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.
Anih mah ni kathuk hoi kanghawk hmuennawk to amtuengsak; aanghaih loe anih thungah oh pongah, vinghaih thungah kaom hmuen to anih mah panoek.
23 I thank you, and praise you, God of my fathers, who has given me wisdom and might, and has now made known to me what we desired of you; for you have made known to us the king's matter."
Aw kam panawk ih Sithaw, na nuiah anghoehaih ka tawnh, nang kang pakoeh; palunghahaih hoi thacakhaih to nang paek, nang khaeah kang hnik o ih hmuen to vaihi nang panoeksak boeh; siangpahrang mah hnik ih hmuen to kaicae khaeah nam tuengsak boeh, tiah lawkthuih.
24 Therefore Daniel went in to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he went and said this to him: "Do not destroy the wise men of Babylon; bring me in before the king, and I will show to the king the interpretation."
To pongah Daniel loe siangphrang mah Babylon prae thung ih palungha kaminawk hum han lokpaek ih Ariok taengah caeh moe, anih khaeah, Babylon prae ih palungha kaminawk to hum hmah; siangpahrang hma ah kai hae na hoi ah, kai mah siangpahrang ih amang to ka leh pae han, tiah a naa.
25 Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said this to him, "I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Judah, who will make known to the king the interpretation."
Ariok mah Daniel to siangpahrang khaeah karangah caeh haih, anih khaeah, Judah prae hoi misong ah hoih ih kaminawk thungah siangpahrang ih amang leh thaih kami maeto ka hnuk boeh, tiah a naa.
26 The king answered Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, "Are you able to make known to me the dream which I have seen, and its interpretation?"
Siangpahrang mah, Belteshazzar, tiah kawk ih Daniel khaeah, Ka hnuk ih amang to nang leh pae thaih han maw? tiah a naa.
27 Daniel answered before the king, and said, "The secret which the king has demanded is such that no wise men, enchanters, magicians, nor soothsayers, can show to the king;
Daniel mah, siangpahrang hma ah, Siangpahrang mah dueng ih panoek karai hmuen loe palungha kaminawk, cakaeh khet kop kaminawk, miklet kop kaminawk hoi banpadae khet kop kaminawk mah thui o thai mak ai;
28 but there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets, and he has made known to king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Your dream, and the visions of your head on your bed, are these:
toe hmuen kanghawk thuikung Sithaw loe van ah oh; anih mah hmabang ah kaom han koi hmuen to Nebuchadnezzar siangpahrang khaeah amtuengsak boeh. Na maang ih, iihkhun nuiah nang songh naah na hnuk ih hmuen loe hae tiah oh;
29 as for you, O king, your thoughts came into your mind on your bed, what should happen hereafter; and he who reveals secrets has made known to you what shall happen.
Aw siangpahrang, nang khaeah, iihkhun nuiah na oh naah hmabang angzo han koi poekhaih to na palung thungah angzoh, hmuen kanghawk amtuengsakkung mah hmabang angzo han koi hmuen to nang khaeah panoeksak boeh.
30 But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than all the living, but in order that the interpretation may be made known to the king, and that you may know the thoughts of your heart.
Kai loe minawk kalah pong palungha kue pongah hae kanghawk hmuen hae kai khaeah amtueng ai, siangpahrang ih amang to panoek moe, palung thung hoi na poek ih hmuen na panoek thai han ih ni, Sithaw mah kai khaeah amtuengsak.
31 You, O king, saw, and look, a great image. This image, which was mighty, and whose brightness was extraordinary, stood before you; and its appearance was awesome.
Aw siangpahrang, Na khet naah paroeai kalen krang to na hnuk. Hae paroeai kalen kampha krang loe paroeai hoih moe, na hma ah angdoet; amtuenghaih dan loe paroeai zit thoh.
32 As for this image, its head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze,
To krang ih lu loe kaciim sui ah oh, saoek hoi ban tampawk loe sum kanglung ah oh moe, zok hoi phaih loe sum kamling ah oh,
33 its legs of iron, its feet part of iron, and part of clay.
a khok loe sum, khokpadae loe sum ahap long ahap ah oh.
34 You saw until a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on its feet that were of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces.
Na khet li naah, kami ban hoi pakhoih ai ih thlung maeto mah sum hoi long kangbaeh krang ih khok to vah pongah, khok loe koih o phaeng.
35 Then was the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold, broken in pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, so that no place was found for them: and the stone that struck the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
To naah sum, long, sum kamling, sum kanglung hoi kaciim suinawk loe nawnto koih o boih moe, nipui tue cang atit ih tavai baktiah oh o; hnuk han om ai ah takhi mah hmuh phaeng; krang va phaeng kalen parai thlung loe mae pui ah angcoeng moe, long ah koi boih.
36 This is the dream; and we will tell its interpretation before the king.
Na mang loe hae tiah oh; vaihi siangpahrang hma ah amang thuikoehhaih to kang thuih pae o han.
37 You, O king, are king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the glory;
Aw siangpahrang, Nang loe siangpahrangnawk ih siangpahrang ah na oh; van Sithaw mah prae ukhaih, toksak thaihaih, thacakhaih hoi lensawkhaih to nang hanah ang paek.
38 and wherever human beings dwell, the animals of the field and the birds of the sky has he given into your hand, and has made you to rule over them all: you are the head of gold.
Kami caanawk ohhaih ahmuen kruekah, anih mah moinawk hoi van ih tavaanawk boih na ban ah paek boeh, nihcae boih ukkung ah nang to ang suek. Kaciim sui hoi sak ih lu loe nang thuikoehhaih ih ni.
39 After you shall arise another kingdom inferior to yours; and another third kingdom of bronze, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
Nang pacoengah nang pong ka hnaem kue, siangpahrang ukhaih prae kalah maeto om tih; to pacoengah thumto haih sum kamling ukhaih prae, tiah kaom, kalah siangpahrang ukhaih prae mah long nui to uk boih tih.
40 The fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron, because iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things; and as iron that crushes all these, shall it break in pieces and crush.
Palito haih thacak siangpahrang ukhaih prae loe sum kamtak baktiah om tih; sum mah loe kalah hmuennawk to koihsak moe, hmuen boih to pazawk; sum mah hmuennawk boih koihsak baktih toengah, anih mah kalah hmuennawk to koisak ueloe, pacaekthlaek tih.
41 Whereas you saw the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, because you saw the iron mixed with miry clay.
Na hnuk ih krang ih khokpadae hoi khokpazungnawk loe sum ahap long ahap ah oh baktih toengah, to siangpahrang ukhaih prae loe angkom thai mak ai; toe na hnuk ih krang loe sum hoi long angbaeh baktih toengah, prae thungah sum thacakhaih to om tih.
42 As the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
Na hnuk ih sum hoi long angbaeh khokpazungnawk baktih toengah, prae loe ahap thacak ueloe, ahap koi tih.
43 And whereas you saw the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mix with one another but they shall not hold together, even as iron does not mix with clay.
Na hnuk ih sum hoi long angbaeh baktih toengah, nihcae loe acaeng kalah kaminawk hoi angbaeh o tih; toe sum hoi long angbet thai ai baktih toengah, nihcae loe maeto hoi maeto poek amhong o mak ai.
44 In the days of those kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed, nor shall its sovereignty be left to another people; but it shall break in pieces and consume all those kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.
To siangpahrangnawk ih atue thuem ah, natuek naah doeh amro thai ai siangpahrang ukhaih prae to van Sithaw mah phasak tih; to ukhaih prae loe minawk kalah khaeah caehtaak mak ai, siangpahrang ukhaih praenawk to amrosak boih ueloe, boenghaih phasak tih; toe anih ih prae loe dungzan khoek to cak tih.
45 Because you saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king what shall happen hereafter: and the dream is certain, and its interpretation sure."
Na hnuk ih kami ban hoi sak ih na ai ah mae thung hoi lak ih thlung mah, koi phaeng ah vah ih sum, sum kamling, long, kaciim sui hoi sum kanglungnawk loe, lensawk Sithaw mah hmabang ah kaom han koi hmuen siangpahrang khaeah amtuengsak ih ni; amang loe palung uihcom han om ai, amang lehhaih loe tangtang ah oh, tiah a naa.
46 Then king Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, and worshiped Daniel, and commanded that they should present an offering and incense to him.
To naah Nebuchadnezzar loe a hma ah akuep moe, Daniel to bok, anih khaeah hmuihoih to thlaek moe, hmuenpaekhaih sak hanah lok a paek.
47 The king answered Daniel and said, "Surely your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, seeing you have been able to reveal this secret."
Siangpahrang mah Daniel khaeah, Na Sithaw loe sithawnawk ih Sithaw, siangpahrangnawk ih Angraeng, kanghawk hmuen amtuengsak Sithaw ah oh tangtang pongah, hae panoek ai ih hmuen hae nang thuih thaih, tiah a naa.
48 Then the king made Daniel great, and gave him many great gifts, and made him to rule over the whole province of Babylon, and to be chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.
Siangpahrang mah Daniel hanah kalen tok to paek, pop parai tangqum doeh a paek; anih to Babylon prae ahap ukkung ah suek moe, Babylon palungha kaminawk boih ukkung ah doeh a suek.
49 Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel was in the gate of the king.
To pacoengah Daniel mah hnik ih baktih toengah siangpahrang mah, Shadrach, Meshach hoi Abed-nego cae doeh Babylon prae ahap ukkung ah suek; toe Daniel loe siangpahrang ohhaih im ah toksak.
