Daniel 5
1 Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
Mokolo moko, mokonzi Balitazari asalisaki feti moko ya monene mpo na kopesa lokumu na nkoto ya bato na ye ya lokumu; mpe amelaki vino elongo na bango.
2 Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king and his lords, his wives and his concubines, might drink therein.
Wana Balitazari azalaki komela vino, apesaki mitindo ete bamema bakopo ya wolo mpe ya palata oyo tata na ye, Nabukodonozori, azwaki wuta na Tempelo ya Yelusalemi, mpo ete mokonzi mpe bato na ye ya lokumu, basi na ye mpe bamakangu na ye bamela na yango masanga.
3 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king and his lords, his wives and his concubines, drank in them.
Boye, bamemaki bakopo ya wolo oyo bazwaki na Tempelo ya Nzambe, na Yelusalemi; bongo mokonzi mpe bato na ye ya lokumu, basi na ye mpe bamakangu na ye bamelaki na yango masanga.
4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
Wana bazalaki komela vino, bazalaki kokumisa banzambe ya wolo mpe ya palata, ya bronze, ya ebende, ya nzete mpe ya libanga.
5 In the same hour came forth the fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
Mbala moko, misapi ya loboko ya moto moko ebimaki mpe ebandaki kokoma na etando ya mir ya ndako ya mokonzi, pembeni ya etelemiselo ya minda. Tango mokonzi amonaki ndenge loboko yango ezalaki kokoma,
6 Then the king’s countenance was changed in him, and his thoughts troubled him; and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.
elongi na ye etelaki na somo mpe makanisi na ye ekomaki kotambola, nzoto na ye mobimba ekomaki kolenga mpe mabolongo na ye ekomaki kotutana.
7 The king cried aloud to bring in the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king spake and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Mokonzi agangaki makasi mpe apesaki mitindo ete bamemela ye banganga-kisi, bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto mpe bato oyo balobaka makambo oyo ekoya. Mpe mokonzi alobaki na bato oyo nyonso ya bwanya, ya Babiloni: — Moto nyonso oyo akokoka kotanga makomi oyo mpe akoyebisa ngai ndimbola na yango, nakolatisa ye bilamba ya motane mpe sheneti ya wolo na kingo, mpe akozala kalaka ya lokumu kati na bokonzi.
8 Then came in all the king’s wise men: but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation.
Bato nyonso ya bwanya ya mokonzi bakotaki na kati, kasi bakokaki te kotanga makomi wana to koyebisa mokonzi ndimbola na yango.
9 Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were perplexed.
Boye, mokonzi Balitazari akomaki lisusu na somo makasi koleka, mpe elongi na ye etelaki lisusu koleka; mpe bato na ye ya lokumu bakomaki komitungisa.
10 [Now] the queen by reason of the words of the king and his lords came into the banquet house: the queen spake and said, O king, live for ever; let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed:
Tango mama ya mokonzi ayokaki basango ya makambo oyo ekomelaki mokonzi mpe bato na ye ya lokumu, akotaki na ndako epai wapi bazalaki kosalela feti; alobaki: — Oh mokonzi, tika ete owumela na bomoi seko na seko! Komitungisa te mpe kotika te ete elongi na yo etela!
11 There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him: and the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, [I say], thy father, made him master of the magicians, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers;
Ezali na moto moko kati na mokili na yo, oyo azali na molimo ya banzambe ya bule kati na ye. Tango tata na yo azalaki mokonzi, amonaki kati na ye bososoli, mayele mpe bwanya oyo ekokana na bwanya ya banzambe. Boye, tata na yo, mokonzi Nabukodonozori, akomisaki ye mokonzi ya banganga-kisi, ya bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto mpe ya bato oyo balobaka makambo oyo ekoya.
12 forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of dark sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar. Now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation.
Pamba te moto yango, Daniele, oyo tata na yo azalaki kobenga Belitsatsari, atondisama na mayele, na boyebi mpe na bososoli; azali lisusu na makoki ya kolimbola ndoto, masese mpe ya kopesa biyano na makambo ya makasi. Benga kaka Daniele wana, mpe akoyebisa yo ndimbola ya makomi yango.
13 Then was Daniel brought in before the king. The king spake and said unto Daniel, Art thou that Daniel, which art of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?
Boye, bamemaki Daniele liboso ya mokonzi. Mokonzi atunaki ye: — Yo nde Daniele, moko kati na bawumbu oyo tata na ngai amemaki wuta na Yuda?
14 I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.
Nayoki na tina na yo ete ozali na molimo ya banzambe kati na yo, mpe ete ozali na bososoli, na mayele mpe na bwanya ya kokamwa!
15 And now the wise men, the enchanters, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof: but they could not shew the interpretation of the thing.
Bato ya bwanya mpe banganga-kisi bawuti awa liboso na ngai mpo na kotanga makomi oyo mpe koyebisa ngai ndimbola na yango, kasi balongi te kopesa ndimbola yango.
16 But I have heard of thee, that thou canst give interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Nzokande, nayoki ete yo ozali na makoki ya kolimbola mpe ya kopesa biyano na makambo ya makasi; sik’oyo, soki olongi kotanga makomi oyo mpe opesi ngai ndimbola na yango, nakolatisa yo bilamba ya motane mpe sheneti ya wolo na kingo, mpe okokoma moto ya misato kati na molongo ya bayangeli ya mokili na ngai ya bokonzi.
17 Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; nevertheless I will read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
Daniele azongiselaki mokonzi: — Batela bakado na yo mpo na yo moko mpe pesa lifuti na yo epai ya moto mosusu! Kasi ngai, nazali kotanga makomi yango mpo na mokonzi; bongo, nakopesa ye ndimbola na yango.
18 O thou king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty:
Oh mokonzi, Nzambe-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo apesaki tata na yo, Nabukodonozori, bokonzi; akomisaki ye moto monene mpe apesaki ye nkembo mpe lokumu.
19 and because of the greatness that he gave him, all the peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew, and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he raised up, and whom he would he put down.
Mpo na lokumu oyo apesaki ye, bato ya bikolo, ya mikili mpe ya nkota nyonso bakomaki kolenga na somo liboso na ye. Mokonzi azalaki koboma bato oyo azalaki na posa ya koboma, kobikisa bato oyo azalaki na posa ya kobikisa, kotombola bato oyo azalaki na posa ya kotombola mpe kosambwisa bato oyo azalaki na posa ya kosambwisa.
20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened that he dealt proudly, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him:
Kasi tango kaka motema na ye ekomaki na lofundu mpe na lolendo, akitisamaki wuta na kiti na ye ya bokonzi mpe babotolaki ye nkembo na ye.
21 and he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses; he was fed with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven: until he knew that the Most High God ruleth in the kingdom of men, and that he setteth up over it whomsoever he will.
Babenganaki ye na molongo ya bato mpe bapesaki ye mayele ya banyama; akomaki kovanda elongo na ba-ane ya zamba, kolia matiti lokola bangombe mpe nzoto na ye ezalaki kopola na mamwe ya tongo, kino tango asosolaki ete Nzambe-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo azali Nkolo ya bokonzi nyonso ya bato mpe atombolaka na bokonzi moto nyonso oyo Ye alingi.
22 And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knewest all this;
Mpe yo Balitazari, mwana na ye ya mobali, atako oyebaki makambo wana nyonso, otamboli na komikitisa te.
23 but hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou and thy lords, thy wives and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:
Otomboli mapeka na yo mpo na kotelemela Yawe ya Lola, oyeisi epai na yo bakopo oyo ewutaki na Tempelo na Ye; bongo yo, bato na yo ya lokumu, basi na yo mpe bamakangu na yo, bomeli na yango masanga ya vino mpe bokumisi banzambe ya palata mpe ya wolo, ya bronze mpe ya ebende, ya nzete mpe ya mabanga, oyo emonaka te, eyokaka te mpe esosolaka te. Kasi opesi lokumu te na Nzambe oyo, kati na loboko na Ye, asimbi bomoi mpe banzela na yo nyonso.
24 Then was the part of the hand sent from before him, and this writing was inscribed.
Yango wana, atindi loboko oyo ekomi makomi oyo.
25 And this is the writing that was inscribed, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
Tala makomi oyo ekomami: Mene, Mene, Tekel, Parsin.
26 This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and brought it to an end.
Ndimbola ya maloba yango ezali: Mene: Nzambe atangi mikolo ya bokonzi na yo mpe akomisi yango na suka;
27 TEKEL; thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
Tekel: bameki kilo na yo na emekelo kilo, mpe emonani ete ozali na yo pepele;
28 PERES; thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
Parsin: bokonzi na yo ekabwani mpe epesami epai ya bato ya Medi mpe ya Persi.
29 Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Mbala moko, Balitazari apesaki mitindo ete balatisa Daniele bilamba ya motane, sheneti ya wolo na kingo mpe batatola na tina na ye ete akomi moto ya misato kati na molongo ya bayangeli ya bokonzi.
30 In that night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was slain.
Mpe kaka na butu wana, babomaki Balitazari, mokonzi ya bato ya Babiloni.
31 And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.
Dariusi, moto ya Medi, akomaki mokonzi tango akokisaki mibu tuku motoba na mibale ya mbotama.
