Daniel 4
1 Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all the peoples, the races and the tongues who are dwelling in all the earth, Let, your prosperity, abound!
Nebukhadnezzar manghai loh namtu pilnam boeih neh olcom olcae neh, diklai pum kah khosa, khosa te, “Nangmih kah ngaimongnah he pungtai saeh.
2 The signs, and the wonders, which the most high God, hath wrought with me, it is pleasing before me to declare.
Khohni kah Khohni Pathen loh kai hamla miknoek neh khobae rhambae te a tueng sak tih kai taengah thui hamla a huem.
3 His signs, how great! and, his wonders, how mighty! His kingdom, is an age-abiding kingdom, and, his dominion, lasteth from generation to generation.
A miknoek te metluk lam lae boeilen tih amah khobae rhambae he metluk lam lae a tlungluen. A ram he kumhal kah ram tih a khohung khaw thawnpuei lamloh cadilcahma taengah om ni.
4 I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at peace in mine own house, and was prosperous in my palace.
Kai Nebukhadnezzar tah ka im kah thayoei nen khaw, ka bawkim kah hnothen nen khaw ka om.
5 A dream, I saw, and it made me afraid, —and, fancies upon my bed, and visions of my head, terrified me.
Mang ka man vaengah kai n'hihham tih ka thingkong dongah poeknah neh ka lu dongkah mangthui loh kai n'cahawh.
6 Therefore made I a decree, to bring in before me, all the wise men of Babylon, —who, the interpretation of the dream, should make known to me.
Ka mang kah thuingaihnah te thui saeh tila Babylon hlang cueih boeih te kamah taengah khuen hamla kai lamloh saithainah a paek coeng.
7 Then came in the sacred scribes, the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers, —and, the dream, told I before them, but, the interpretation, could they not make known to me.
Hmayuep rhoek, rhaitonghma rhoek, Khalden rhoek neh aisi aka suep khaw ha pai, ha pai vaengah mang he amih taengah ka thui dae a thuingaihnah te kai taengah a ming uh moenih.
8 Howbeit, at last, came before me—Daniel, whose, name, was Belteshazzar, after the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and, the dream—before him, I told [saying]:
Tedae a hnukkhueng la Daniel he kai taengla ha pai. Anih te ka pathen ming bangla Belteshazzar a ming nah. Anih tah a khuiah khaw Pathen Mueihla cim a om dongah a taengah mang ka thui pah.
9 O Belteshazzar, chief of the sacred scribes, because I know that, the spirit of the holy gods, is in thee, —and no secret giveth thee trouble, [therefore], the visions of my dream which I have seen, and the interpretation thereof, do thou tell.
Belteshazzar tah hmayuep boei pai ni. Na khui ah Pathen kah mueihla cim om tih oldung boeih khaw nang hamla kuel pawh tila ka ming. Ka mang ah mangthui ka hmuh tih a thuingaihnah khaw a thui.
10 The visions then of my head upon my bed [were these], —I was looking, when lo! a tree in the midst of the land, and, the height thereof, was great.
Ka thingkong dongah ka lu kah mangthui ka hmuh. Te vaengah diklai laklung kah thing tah a sang khaw muep sang he.
11 The tree, grew, and became strong, —and, the height thereof, reached unto the heavens, and, the view thereof, unto the end of all the land:
Thing te rhoeng tih a hlul dongah a sang loh vaan duela a pha. Te dongah a mueimae he diklai pum kah khobawt duela tueng.
12 The foliage thereof, was beautiful, and, the fruit thereof, abundant, and there was food for all therein, —under it, the wild beast of the field found shade, and, among its branches, dwelt the birds of the heavens, and, therefrom, was well fed, all flesh.
A hnah te then tih a thaih khaw yet. Te dongah a soah a cungkuem ham buh om tih a hmui ah kohong rhamsa loh hlipying uh. A bu dongah vaan kah vaa loh kho a sak tih te lamloh pumsa boeih a cah.
13 I was looking, in the visions of my head, upon my bed, when lo! a watcher and holy one, outer the heavens, coming down.
Ka thingkong dongah ka lu dongkah mangthui ka hmuh tih ka om vaengah vaan lamkah thinghla cim tah ha rhum.
14 He cried aloud, and, thus, he said—Hew ye down the tree, and lop off its branches, strip off its leaves, and scatter its fruit, —let the wild beasts flee from under it, and the birds, out of its branches;
Thadueng neh pang tih, “Thing te vung lamtah, a bu te saih pah, a hnah te hae pah lamtah a thaih haeh pah. A hmui lamkah rhamsa neh a bu dongkah vaa khaw nong saeh,”.
15 Nevertheless, the stock of its roots in the earth, leave ye, yea in a bond of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field, and, with the dew of the heavens, let it be drenched, and, with the wild beasts, be its portion, amongst, the herbage of the earth;
Tedae a yung a ngo tah diklai ah ngol saeh lamtah thi neh rhohum kah pinnah neh kohong baeldaih khui ah om saeh. Te dongah vaan kah buem loh saep saeh lamtah a hamsum rhamsa neh diklai baelhing lakli ah om saeh.
16 Let, its heart, from a man’s, be changed, and, the heart of a wild beast, be given to it, —and let seven seasons pass over it.
Tekah hlang tah a thinko te hlang lamloh poehlip saeh lamtah anih te rhamsa thinko pae saeh. Te vaengah anih ham kum rhih thok pah saeh, a ti.
17 By the decree of the watchers, is the thing, and [by] the mandate of the holy ones, the matter: to the intent that the living, may get to know, that the Most High, hath dominion, over the kingdom of men, and, to whomsoever he pleaseth, he giveth it, and, one low among men, he setteth up over it.
He kong dongkah thinghla kah saithainah ol neh a cim olpaek oltloek rhangneh a sangkoek lakah a sangkoek loh hlang kah ram neh hlang khaw a hung te mulhing rhoek loh ming uh saeh. Te dongah te te a ngaih sarhui taengah a paek tih mathoe hlang rhoek te a so, a so ah a pai sak.
18 This dream, have, I, King Nebuchadnezzar, seen. Thou, therefore, O Belteshazzar, the interpretation, do thou tell, forasmuch as, all the wise men of my kingdom, are unable, the interpretation, to make known to me, but, thou, art able, because, the spirit of the holy gods, is in thee.
Kai manghai Nebukhadnezzar loh mang loh ka man he Belteshazzar nang, namah loh a thuingaihnah thui laeh. Te kong dongah ka ram kah hlang cueih boeih loh kai taengah a thuingaihnah thuicaih ham a noeng uh moenih. Nang, namah tah na khuikah Pathen mueihla cim rhangneh na noeng coeng,” a ti.
19 Then, Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was astonished for about one moment, and, his thoughts, troubled him. The king spake and said, O Belteshazzar, let neither, the dream, nor the interpretation, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My Lord, The dream, be for them who hate thee, and, the interpretation, for them who are thy foes.
Te dongah Belteshazzar aka ming nah Daniel tah khonoek pakhat khuiah hit sut. A poeknah loh amah a cahawh. Te dongah manghai loh a voek tih, “Belteshazzar, mang neh a thuingaihnah nang te let boeh,” a ti nah. Belteshazzar loh a doo tih, “Ka boeipa aw, ka boeipa na saeh, mang te na lunguet, na lunguet ham tih a thuingaihnah tah na rhal, na rhal ham ni.
20 The tree which thou sawest, which grew and became strong, whose, height, reached unto the heavens, and, the view, thereof to all the earth:
Na hmuh bangla thing te rhoeng tih hlul. Te dongah a sang vaan duela a pha tih a mueimae te diklai pum ah tueng.
21 Whose, foliage, was beautiful, and whose, fruit, abundant, and, food for all, was in it, —under it, dwelt the wild beasts of the field, and, in the branches thereof, nestled the birds of the heavens:
A hnah then tih a thaih yet. A soah a cungkuem ham buh om tih a hmui ah kohong rhamsa loh kho a sak. A bu dongah vaan kah vaa loh kho a sak.
22 Thyself, it is, O king, in that thou art grown, and become strong, —and, thy greatness hath grown, and reached to the heavens, and, thy dominion, to the end of the earth.
Manghai nang namah tah na rhoeng tih na hlul dongah na lennah khaw vaan a pha duela rhoeng na. Na khohung loh diklai khobawt duela a pha.
23 And, whereas the king saw a watcher and holy one coming down out of the heavens, who said, Hew ye down the tree and despoil it, nevertheless, the stock of its roots—in the earth, leave ye, even in a bond of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field, —and, with the dew of the heavens, let it he drenched, and, along with the wild beasts of the field, be its portion, until that, seven seasons, pass over it.
Manghai aw, a tueng bangla, thinghla cim tah vaan lamloh rhum tih, “Thing te vung uh lamtah palet uh. A yung a ngo tah diklai ah hlun uh lamtah thi neh rhohum kah pinnah neh kohong baeldaih khuiah om saeh. Te vaengah vaan kah buem neh saep saeh lamtah anih te kum rhih a thok duela amah hamsum kohong rhamsa taengah om saeh.
24 This, is the interpretation, O king, —and, the decree of the Most High, it is, which hath come upon my lord the king:
Manghai aw a thuingaihnah he tah a sangkoek a sangkoek kah saithainah ni. He he ka boeipa neh ka boeipa manghai taengah pai coeng.
25 That, thee, are they going to drive forth from among men, and, along with the wild beasts of the field, shall be thy dwelling, and, grass—like oxen, will they suffer, thee, to eat, and, with the dew of the heavens, will they suffer, thee, to be drenched, and, seven seasons, shall pass over thee, —until that thou come to know, that the Most High, hath dominion, over the kingdom of men, and, to whomsoever he pleaseth, he giveth it.
Nang te hlang taeng lamloh m'vai uh vetih kohong rhamsa taengah ni na khosaknah a om eh. Baelhing te vaito bangla na caak vetih vaan kah buem neh nang te n'saep ni. A sangkoek kah a sangkoek loh hlang kah ram soah a hung tih te te a ngaih sarhui taengah a paek tila na ming hil nang hamla kum rhih thok ni.
26 And, whereas they gave word to leave the stock of the roots of the tree, thy kingdom, unto thee, is sure, —after that thou come to know, that the heavens, have dominion.
Thing kah a yung a ngo hlun ham a thui bangla vaan aka hung te na ming van lamloh na ram te namah taengla cak ni.
27 Wherefore, O king, let, my counsel, be pleasing unto thee, thy sin, then, —by righteousness, break thou off, and, thine iniquities, by shewing favour to the oppressed, —if so be it may become the lengthening out of thy security.
Te dongah manghai aw, kai poeknah he namah taengah na doe mai mako. Na tholhnah te duengnah neh phaeh lamtah hlanghnaem pataek na rhen nen te na halangnah hnawt laeh. Na ommongnah te a congnah a om khaming,” a ti nah.
28 All this, came upon Nebuchadnezzar the king.
Te boeih te Nebukhadnezzar manghai taengah a pai pah.
29 At the end of twelve months, over the palace of the kingdom of Babylon, was he walking:
Hla hlai nit a bawtnah dongah tah Babylon ram kah bawkim ah om tih pongpa.
30 the king spake and said, Is not, this, Babylon the great, —which, I myself, have built as the home of the kingdom, by the might of my power, and for the dignity of my majesty?
Te vaengah manghai te cal tih, “Babylon he a boeilen moenih a? He te kai loh ka thadueng sarhi neh kamah kah hinyahnah, thangpomnah ham ram kah im la ka sak,” a ti.
31 While yet the word was in the mouth of the king, a voice, out of the heavens, fell, —Unto thee, is it said, O Nebuchadnezzar the king, The kingdom, hath departed from thee;
Manghai ka dongah ol a cal li vaengah vaan lamkah ol cet tih, “Manghai Nebukhadnezzar nang hamla a thui tih ram he nang lamloh nong coeng.
32 And, from among men, are they going to drive, thee, forth, and, with the wild beast of the field, shall be thy dwelling, grass—like oxen, will they suffer, thee, to eat, and, seven seasons, shall pass over thee, —until that thou come to know that the Most High, hath dominion, over the kingdom of men, and, to whomsoever he pleaseth, he giveth it.
Nang te hlang taeng lamloh m'vai coeng tih na khosaknah he kohong rhamsa nen ni a om. Nang te vaito bangla rham n'cah vetih a sangkoek kah a sangkoek loh hlang kah ram soah a hung tih te te a ngaih taengah a paek tila na ming hil nang hamla kum rhih thok ni,” a ti nah.
33 Immediately, the word, was fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar, and, from among men, was he driven forth, and, grass—like oxen, did he eat, and, with the dew of the heavens, his body was drenched, —until that, his hair, like to eagles’ feathers, was grown, and his nails, like birds’ claws.
Amah ol a bangli vaengah Nebukhadnezzar soah a pha tih hlang taeng lamloh a vai uh. Te vaengah vaito bangla rham a caak tih a sam te atha bangla, a kuttin te vaa bangla a sai hil a pum te vaan kah buem loh a saep.
34 And, at the end of the days, I, Nebuchadnezzar, mine eyes unto the heavens, did uplift, and, mine understanding, unto me, returned, and, the Most High, I blessed, and, to him that liveth age-abidingly, I rendered praise and honour, —whose dominion, is an age-abiding dominion, and, his kingdom, lasteth from generation to generation;
A tue bawtnah dongah tah, kai Nebukhadnezzar loh ka mik he vaan la ka huel hatah ka mingnah he ka taengla ha mael. Te dongah a sangkoek Khohni te ka koeh tih kumhal kah mulhing te ka oep tih ka hinyah nah. A khohung te dungyan kah khohung tih a ram kah thawnpuei lamloh cadilcahma duela cak.
35 And, all the inhabitants of the earth, as nothing, are accounted, and, according to his own pleasure, dealeth he—with the army of the heavens, and the inhabitants of the earth, —and none there is who can smite upon his hand, or say to him, What hast thou done?
Diklai khosa, khosa boeih tah aka om pawt bangla a ngai tih diklai khosa, khosa rhoek te vaan thadueng neh a ngaih bangla a saii. A kut te aka doek pa tih a taengah “Balae na saii?” aka ti nah te a om moenih.
36 At the same time, mine understanding, returned unto me, and, for the dignity of my kingdom, my majesty and my brightness, returned unto me, and, unto me, my nearest friends and my nobles, did seek, —and, over my kingdom, was I restored, and, surpassing greatness, was added unto me.
Ka mingnah loh ka taengah a mael tue vaengah, ka ram kah thangpomnah, kai hinyahnah neh ka aa ka taengla ha mael. Kai he ka olrhoep neh ka boei ka na rhoek loh n'toem uh. Ka ram he pai tih lennah kai taengah muep a thap.
37 Now, I, Nebuchadnezzar, am praising and extolling and honouring the King of the Heavens, all whose works, are truth, and, his ways, right; and, them who walk in pride, he is able to abase,
Kai Nebukhadnezzar tah n'oep tih m'pacuet coeng. Te dongah vaan kah manghai tah hinyah pai saeh. A bibi boeih he oltak tih a longpuei khaw tiktam. Te dongah koevoeinah neh aka pongpa te kunyun sak ham a noeng.
