Daniel 6
1 It was pleasing before Darius, that he should set up over the kingdom, a hundred and twenty satraps, —that they should be over all the kingdom;
Dariusi amonaki ete ezali malamu kotia bayangeli nkama moko na tuku mibale mpo na kokamba mokili mobimba ya bokonzi.
2 and, over these, three confidential ministers, of whom, Daniel, was first, —that, to them, these satraps should render an account, and, the king, not be suffering loss.
Atiaki lisusu bakalaka misato ya lokumu lokola bakonzi na bango; Daniele azalaki moko kati na bakalaka yango ya lokumu. Bazalaki kokamba misala ya bayangeli ya bituka mpo ete mokonzi anyokwama te.
3 Then, this Daniel, signalised himself, above the ministers and the satraps, because, a distinguished spirit, was in him, and, the king, thought to set him up over all the kingdom,
Nzokande, Daniele amonisaki bokeseni kati na ye, bakalaka ya lokumu mpe bayangeli oyo mokonzi atiaki kati na bituka, mpo na mayele na ye oyo eleka ndelo. Boye, mokonzi akanisaki kotombola ye mpo ete akamba mokili na ye mobimba ya bokonzi.
4 Then, the ministers and the satraps, began seeking to find, occasion, against Daniel, in respect of the kingdom, —but, no occasion nor wickedness, could they find, inasmuch as, faithful, was he, and, neither error nor wickedness, could be found against him.
Bakalaka ya lokumu mpe bayangeli oyo mokonzi atiaki na bituka bazalaki koluka likambo ya kofundela Daniele na ndenge na ye ya kotambolisa makambo ya bokonzi. Kasi balongaki te kozwa ata likambo moko to mbeba ya kofundela Daniele, mpo ete azalaki sembo mpe mpo ete, kati na ye, bazalaki komona ata libunga te to mbeba moko te ya kofundela ye.
5 Then, these men, were saying, We shall not find against this Daniel, any occasion; unless we find it against him in respect of the law of his God.
Boye, bato yango balobaki: — Tokotikala komona likambo ata moko te ya kofundela moto oyo, Daniele; loba nde toluka yango kati na mobeko ya Nzambe na ye.
6 Then, these ministers and satraps, crowded together unto the king, —and, thus, were saying to him, O Darius the king! for ages, live!
Bakalaka ya lokumu mpe bayangeli oyo mokonzi atiaki na bituka bakendeki lisanga epai ya mokonzi mpe balobaki: — Tika ete mokonzi Dariusi awumela na bomoi seko na seko!
7 All the ministers of the kingdom, the nobles and satraps, the near friends and the pashas, have consulted together, to establish a royal statute, and to confirm an interdict, —That, whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man, for thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions.
Bakalaka ya lokumu, bakalaka oyo babatelaka biloko ya mokonzi, bayangeli oyo mokonzi atiaki na bituka, bapesi toli mpe bayangeli, bango nyonso bandimaki ete mokonzi azwa mokano moko mpe abetela yango sete: « Na mikolo tuku misato oyo ezali koya, moto nyonso asengeli kosambela kaka mokonzi; moto oyo akomeka kosambela nzambe to moto mosusu, basengeli kobwaka ye kati na libulu ya bankosi. »
8 Now, O king! wilt thou establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it may not be changed—according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be abolished,
Sik’oyo, oh mokonzi, zwa mokano yango, koma yango na mokanda mpe tia mokoloto mpo ete babongola yango te, kolanda mibeko ya bato ya Medi mpe ya Persi oyo bakoki kobongola te.
9 Wherefore, King Darius, signed the writing and the interdict.
Boye, mokonzi Dariusi akomaki mokano oyo azwaki mpo ete babongola yango te mpe atiaki mokoloto na mokano yango.
10 But, Daniel, when he knew that the writing, was signed, went to his own house, and, the windows being opened to him, in his chamber, toward Jerusalem, three times a day, was he kneeling upon his knees, and praying and giving thanks before his God, in like manner as he had been doing aforetime.
Tango Daniele asosolaki ete sango ya mokano yango esili kopanzana, akotaki na ndako na ye, amataki na etaje mpe akotaki na shambre oyo maninisa na yango etala na ngambo ya Yelusalemi; mbala misato na mokolo, azalaki kofukama mpo na kosambela mpe kopesa matondi epai ya Nzambe na ye, ndenge kaka azalaki kosala liboso.
11 Then, these men, crowded together, and found Daniel, —praying and making supplication, before his God.
Bongo, bato yango bakendeki lisanga mpe bakutaki Daniele azali kobondela mpe kosenga lisungi epai ya Nzambe na ye.
12 Then drew they near, and began to speak before the king, concerning the royal interdict, Didst thou not sign, an interdict, that, any man who should petition of any God or man, for thirty days, save of thee, O king, should be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, Certain is the thing—according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be abolished.
Mbala moko, bakendeki epai ya mokonzi mpo na kosolola na ye na tina na mokano oyo azwaki: — Mokonzi, opanzaki sango te ya mokano oyo ozwaki, ete na mikolo tuku misato oyo ekolanda, moto nyonso asengeli kosambela kaka yo, mokonzi; bongo moto oyo akosambela nzambe to moto mosusu, basengeli kobwaka ye kati na libulu ya bankosi? Mokonzi azongisaki: — Ezali penza bongo! Mokano ezali ndenge kaka ekatamaki, kolanda mibeko ya bato ya Medi mpe ya Persi, oyo bakoki kobongola te.
13 Then answered they and were saying before the king, Daniel, who is of the sons of the exile of Judah, hath made thee, O king, of none account, also the interdict which thou hast signed, —but, three times a day, is asking his petition.
Balobaki lisusu na mokonzi: — Daniele, moko kati na bawumbu oyo bawutaki na Yuda, azali kotosa yo te, ezala mokano oyo okomaki na mokanda mpe otiaki mokoloto; azali kokoba kaka kosambela mbala misato na mokolo.
14 Then, the king, when he heard, the matter, was sorely displeased with himself, and, upon Daniel, set his heart, to deliver him, —and, until the going in of the sun, was striving to rescue him.
Tango mokonzi ayokaki bongo, esalaki ye pasi makasi na motema; boye azwaki mokano ya kokangola Daniele; mpe kino na pokwa, azalaki kaka koluka ndenge nini kobikisa ye.
15 Then, these men, crowded unto the king, —and were saying to the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, that, no interdict nor statute which the king establisheth, may be changed.
Kasi bato yango bakendeki lisusu lisanga epai ya mokonzi Dariusi mpe balobaki na ye: — Mokonzi, kobosana te ete mobeko ya bato ya Medi mpe ya Persi elobi ete mokano moko te to mobeko moko te ya mokonzi ekoki kobongolama.
16 Then, the king, gave word, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. The king spake and said to Daniel, —Thy God, whom thou art serving continually, he, will deliver thee.
Boye, mokonzi apesaki mitindo ete bamema Daniele mpe babwaka ye kati na libulu ya bankosi. Mokonzi alobaki na Daniele: — Nzambe na yo, oyo osalelaka na molende, akobikisa yo!
17 And there was brought a certain stone, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet-ring, and with the signet-ring of his nobles, that nothing might be changed, as to Daniel.
Bamemaki libanga moko ya monene mpe batiaki yango na monoko ya libulu ya bankosi. Mokonzi abetaki yango kashe na nzela ya lopete na ye mpe na nzela ya lopete ya bato na ye ya lokumu, mpo ete babongola eloko moko te na etumbu oyo bakateli Daniele.
18 Then the king departed to his palace, and spent the night fasting, and no, table, was brought in before him, —and, his sleep, fled from him.
Sima na yango, mokonzi azongaki na ndako na ye; mpe, butu mobimba, aliaki te, avandaki elongo na bamakangu te mpe atikalaki kozwa pongi te.
19 Then the king rose early, with the dawn, —and, hastily—unto the den of lions, departed;
Na tongo-tongo, mokonzi atelemaki mpe akendeki na lombangu na libulu ya bankosi.
20 and, when he drew near to the den, unto Daniel, with distressed voice, made he outcry, —the king spake and said unto Daniel, O Daniel! servant of the Living God! Thy God, whom thou art serving continually, hath he been able to deliver thee from the lions?
Tango akomaki pene ya libulu yango, abengaki Daniele na mongongo ya mawa: — Daniele, mosali na Nzambe na bomoi! Boni, Nzambe na yo, oyo osalelaka na molende, alongi kokangola yo na minoko ya bankosi?
21 Then, Daniel, with the king, spake, —O king! for ages, live!
Daniele azongiselaki ye: — Oh mokonzi, tika ete owumela na bomoi seko na seko!
22 My God, hath sent his messenger, and hath shut the mouth of the lions, and they have not hurt me; forasmuch as, before him, rectitude was found in me, moreover also, before thee, O king, no, crime, had I committed.
Nzambe na ngai atindaki anjelu na Ye mpo ete akanga bankosi minoko; boye, esalaki ngai mabe ata moko te, mpo ete natambolaki mabe te na miso na Ye, mpe nasalaki mabe ata moko te liboso na yo, mokonzi.
23 Then, the king, was exceedingly glad concerning him, and gave word to take up, Daniel, out of the den. So Daniel, was taken up, out of the den, and, no manner of hurt, was found in him, for that he had trusted in his God.
Mokonzi asepelaki makasi mpe apesaki mitindo ete babimisa Daniele wuta na libulu. Boye, babimisaki Daniele wuta na libulu mpe bamonaki ata pota moko te na nzoto na ye, pamba te azalaki na elikya na Nzambe na ye.
24 And the king, gave word, that they should bring those men who had accused Daniel, and, into the den of lions, they cast them—them, their children, and their wives, —and, they had not reached the bottom of the den, when the lions, seized them, and, all their bones, brake they in pieces.
Mokonzi apesaki mitindo ete bamema bato oyo bafundaki Daniele mpe babwaka bango elongo na basi mpe bana na bango kati na libulu ya bankosi. Liboso ete bamikomela na se ya libulu, bankosi epumbwelaki bango mpe ebukaki bango mikuwa nyonso.
25 Then, Darius the king, wrote to all the peoples, the races, and the tongues who were dwelling in all the earth, Your prosperity abound!
Bongo, mokonzi Dariusi akomelaki bato ya bikolo nyonso mpe ya nkota nyonso oyo bazalaki kovanda na mokili mobimba: Natombeli bino kimia monene!
26 From before me, is appointed a decree that, throughout every dominion of my kingdom, men tremble and withdraw falteringly from before the God of Daniel, —for that, he, is the Living God, and abiding for ages, and, his kingdom, that which shall not be destroyed, and, his dominion, is unto the end:
Napesi mitindo ete, na bituka nyonso ya mokili na ngai, bato nyonso batosa mpe bapesa Nzambe ya Daniele lokumu.
27 who delivereth and rescueth and worketh signs and wonders, in the heavens, and in the earth, —for that he hath delivered Daniel out of the power of the lions.
Akangolaka mpe abikisaka,
28 And, this Daniel, prospered in the reign of Darius, —and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.:
Daniele akomaki moto ya lokumu na tango Dariusi azalaki mokonzi mpe na tango ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya bato ya Persi.
