1 And in year two of [the] reign of Nebuchadnezzar he dreamed Nebuchadnezzar dreams and it was troubled spirit his and sleep his it happened on him.

Ní ọdún kejì ìjọba Nebukadnessari, ó lá àlá, èyí tí ó mú kí ọkàn an rẹ̀ dàrú, kò sì le è sùn.

2 And he said the king to summon the soothsayer-priests and the conjurers and the sorcerers and the Chaldeans to tell to the king dreams his and they came and they stood before the king.

Nígbà náà ni ọba yára pe àwọn onídán, àwọn aláfọ̀ṣẹ, àwọn oṣó àti àwọn awòràwọ̀; àwọn tó ní ìmọ̀ àti àṣírí i títúmọ̀ ìràwọ̀, ọba pè wọ́n kí wọn wá sọ àlá tí ó lá. Nígbà tí wọ́n dé, tí wọ́n dúró níwájú ọba,

3 And he said to them the king a dream I have dreamed and it was troubled spirit my to know the dream.

ọba sì wí fún wọn pé, “Mo ti lá àlá kan èyí tí ó mú kí ọkàn mi dàrú, mo sì fẹ́ mọ ìtumọ̀ àlá náà.”

4 And they spoke the Chaldeans to the king Aramaic king O for ever live! tell! dream the (to servant your *Q(K)*) and interpretation the we will declare.

Nígbà náà ni àwọn awòràwọ̀ dá ọba lóhùn ní èdè Aramaiki pé, “Kí ọba kí ó pẹ́! Sọ àlá yìí fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ àwa yóò sì sọ ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ fún ọ.”

5 [was] replying King the and [was] saying (to Chaldeans the *Q(K)*) word the from me [is] assured if not you will make known to me dream the and interpretation its members you will be made and houses your a refuse-heap they will be made.

Ọba dá àwọn awòràwọ̀ lóhùn pé, “Ohun náà ti kúrò lórí mi, tí ẹ̀yin kò bá sọ àlá náà àti ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi, èmi yóò gé e yín sí wẹ́wẹ́, ilé e yín yóò sì di ààtàn.

6 And if dream the and interpretation its you will declare gifts and a reward and honor great you will receive from before me therefore dream the and interpretation its declare to me.

Ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ̀yin bá sọ àlá náà àti ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi, èmi yóò fún un yín ní ẹ̀bùn, ọrẹ àti ọláńlá tí ó pọ̀. Nítorí náà, ẹ sọ àlá náà àti ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi.”

7 They replied a second [time] and [they were] saying king O dream the let him tell to servants his and interpretation the we will declare.

Lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, “Wọ́n tún dáhùn pé, jẹ́ kí ọba sọ àlá náà fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àwa yóò sì túmọ̀ rẹ̀.”

8 [was] replying King the and [was] saying according to certain [am] knowing I that time you [are] gaining as to because that you have seen that [is] assured from me word the.

Nígbà náà ni ọba sọ pé, “Èmi mọ̀ dájú wí pé ẹ̀yin fẹ́ fi àkókò ṣòfò nítorí pé ẹ̀yin ti mọ̀ pé nǹkan ti lọ ní orí mi.

9 That if dream the not you will make known to me [is] one it decree your and a word a lie and corrupt (you have agreed together *Q(K)*) to say before me until that time the it will be changed therefore dream the tell! to me so I may know that interpretation its you will declare to me.

Tí ẹ̀yin kò bá lè sọ àlá mi, ìjìyà kan ṣoṣo ló wà fún un yín. Ẹ̀yin ti gbèrò láti pa irọ́ àti láti sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ ti ó lè si ni lọ́nà fún mi, títí tí nǹkan yóò fi yí wọ́. Nítorí náà ẹ rọ́ àlá náà fún mi, èmi yóò sì mọ̀ pé ẹ lè túmọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi.”

10 They replied (Chaldeans the *Q(K)*) before king the and [they were] saying not there [is] a person on earth the who [the] matter of king the he will be able to declare as to because that any king great and powerful a matter like this not he has asked to any magician and conjurer and Chaldean.

Àwọn awòràwọ̀ sì dá ọba lóhùn pé, “Kò sí ènìyàn kan ní ayé tí ó lè sọ nǹkan tí ọba béèrè! Kò sí ọba náà bí ó ti wù kí ó tóbi àti kí ó lágbára tó, tí í béèrè irú nǹkan bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ àwọn onídán tàbí aláfọ̀ṣẹ tàbí awòràwọ̀.

11 And matter the which king the [is] asking [is] difficult and [is] another not there who he will declare it before king the except gods who dwelling place their [is] with flesh not there it.

Nǹkan tí ọba béèrè yìí ṣòro púpọ̀. Kò sí ẹni tí ó lè fihan ọba àfi àwọn òrìṣà, tí wọn kì í gbé láàrín ènìyàn.”

12 As to because this king the he was angry and he was furious exceedingly and he said to destroy all [the] wise men of Babylon.

Èyí mú kí ọba bínú, ó sì kanra, nítorí náà ó pàṣẹ kí a pa gbogbo àwọn amòye Babeli run.

13 And decree the it went out and wise men the [were] about to be killed and they sought Daniel and companions his to be killed.

Nítorí náà àṣẹ yìí jáde lọ wí pé kí a pa àwọn amòye, wọ́n ránṣẹ́ pe Daniẹli pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ láti pa wọ́n.

14 Then Daniel he sent back counsel and discretion to Arioch [the] chief executioners the of king the who he went out to kill [the] wise men of Babylon.

Nígbà tí Arioku, olórí àwọn olùṣọ́ ọba, jáde láti lọ pa àwọn amòye Babeli, Daniẹli sọ̀rọ̀ fún un pẹ̀lú ọgbọ́n àti òye.

15 [he was] replying And [he was] saying to Arioch captain the of king the on what? [is] decree the harsh from before king the then matter the he made known Arioch to Daniel.

Ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ olórí àwọn olùṣọ́ ọba wí pé, “Èéṣe tí àṣẹ ọba fi yá kánkán bẹ́ẹ̀?” Arioku sì ṣe àlàyé ọ̀rọ̀ náà fún Daniẹli.

16 And Daniel he went in and he asked from king the that time he will give to him and interpretation the to declare to king the.

Nígbà náà ni Daniẹli wọlé tọ ọba lọ, ó sì tọrọ kí ọba fún òun ní ààyè, òun yóò fi ìtumọ̀ àlá náà hàn fún ọba.

17 Then Daniel to house his he went and to Hananiah Mishael and Azariah companions his matter the he made known.

Nígbà náà ni Daniẹli padà lọ sí ilé e rẹ̀, ó sì sọ fún àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ Hananiah, Miṣaeli àti Asariah.

18 And compassion to ask from before [the] God of heavens the concerning secret the this that not they will destroy Daniel and companions his with [the] rest of [the] wise men of Babylon.

Ó sọ fún wọn pé kí wọn béèrè fún àánú Ọlọ́run, Olúwa ọ̀run, nítorí àṣírí yìí, kí Daniẹli pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ rẹ̀ má ba ṣègbé pẹ̀lú àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n Babeli yòókù, tí ó wà ní Babeli.

19 Then to Daniel in vision the of night the secret the it was revealed then Daniel he blessed [the] God of heavens the.

Ní òru, àṣírí náà hàn sí Daniẹli ní ojú ìran. Nígbà náà ni Daniẹli fi ògo fún Ọlọ́run ọ̀run

20 [was] replying Daniel and [was] saying let it be name his of true God the [be] blessed from antiquity and to perpetuity that wisdom and power which [is] to him it.

Daniẹli wí pé: “Ọpẹ́ ni fún orúkọ Ọlọ́run láé àti láéláé; tirẹ̀ ni ọgbọ́n àti agbára.

21 And he [is] changing times the and appointed times the [he is] removing kings and [he is] setting up kings [he is] giving wisdom to wise men and understanding to ones knowing discernment.

Ó yí ìgbà àti àkókò padà; ó mú ọba jẹ, ó ń mú wọn kúrò. Ó fún àwọn amòye ní ọgbọ́n àti ìmọ̀ fún àwọn tí ó ní òye.

22 He [is] revealing deep [things] and hidden [things] [he is] knowing what? [is] in darkness the (and light the *Q(k)*) with him [is] dwelling.

Ó fi ohun ìjìnlẹ̀ àti àṣírí hàn; ó mọ ohun tí ó pamọ́ nínú òkùnkùn àti ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ wà.

23 You - O God of fathers my [am] praising and [am] praising I that wisdom and power you have given to me and now you have made known to me that we asked from you that [the] matter of king the you made known to us.

Mo dúpẹ́, mo sì fi ìyìn fún ọ, ìwọ Ọlọ́run àwọn baba mi: ó ti fún mi ní ọgbọ́n àti agbára ó ti fi àwọn nǹkan tí a béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ hàn fún mi nítorí tí ìwọ ti fi àlá ọba hàn wá.”

24 As to because this Daniel he went in to Arioch whom he had appointed king the to destroy [the] wise men of Babylon he went - and as follows he said to him [the] wise men of Babylon may not you destroy bring in me before king the and interpretation the to king the I will declare.

Nígbà náà ni Daniẹli tọ́ Arioku lọ, ẹni tí ọba yàn láti pa àwọn amòye Babeli run, Daniẹli wí fún un pé, “Má ṣe pa àwọn amòye Babeli run. Mú mi lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba, èmi yóò sísọ ìtumọ̀ àlá rẹ̀ fún un.”

25 Then Arioch in haste he brought in Daniel before king the and as follows he said to him that I have found a man from [the] sons of exile the of Judah who interpretation the to king the he will make known.

Lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà, Arioku yára mú Daniẹli lọ sí iwájú ọba, ó sọ fún ọba pé, “Èmi ti rí ọkùnrin kan lára àwọn àjèjì tí ó wá láti Juda, ẹni tí ó lè sọ ìtumọ̀ àlá náà fún ọba.”

26 [was] replying King the and [was] saying to Daniel who name his [was] Belteshazzar (¿ [are] you *Q(k)*) able to make known to me dream the which I saw and interpretation its.

Ọba béèrè lọ́wọ́ Daniẹli ẹni tí a tún ń pè ní Belṣassari pé, “Ṣé ìwọ lè sọ ohun tí mo rí nínú àlá mi àti ìtumọ̀ ọ rẹ̀ fún mi?”

27 [was] replying Daniel before king the and [was] saying secret the which king the [is] asking not wise men conjurers magicians astrologers [are] being able to declare to king the.

Daniẹli dá ọba lóhùn pé, “Kò sí awòràwọ̀ kan, apògèdè, onídán tàbí aláfọ̀ṣẹ tí ó lè ṣe àlàyé àṣírí tí ọba béèrè fún

28 Nevertheless there [is] a God in heavens the [who] reveals secrets and he has made known to king the Nebuchadnezzar what that it will be at [the] end of days the dream your and [the] visions of head your on bed your [is] this it.

ṣùgbọ́n, Ọlọ́run kan ń bẹ ní ọ̀run tí ó ń fi àṣírí hàn. Ó ti fihan ọba Nebukadnessari, ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ ní ìkẹyìn ọjọ́. Àlá àti ìran tí o rí nígbà tí o dùbúlẹ̀ lórí ibùsùn rẹ ni ìwọ̀nyí:

29 (You *Q(k)*) king O thought[s] your on bed your they came up what that it will be after this and [one who] reveals secrets he has made known to you what that it will be.

“Ọba, bí ìwọ ṣe sùn sórí ibùsùn rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọkàn rẹ ń ro àwọn ohun tó ń bọ̀, olùfihàn àṣírí ń fi ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ fún ọ.

30 And I not by wisdom which there [is] in me more than all living [people] the secret the this it has been revealed to me but on [the] cause that interpretation the to king the they will make known and [the] thoughts of heart your you will know.

Ṣùgbọ́n fún èmi, a fi àṣírí yìí hàn mí, kì í ṣe pé mo ní ọgbọ́n tí ó pọ̀ ju ti alààyè kankan lọ, ṣùgbọ́n nítorí kí ọba lè mọ ìtumọ̀ àlá àti kí ó lè mọ ohun tí ó wà ní ọkàn rẹ̀.

31 (You *Q(k)*) king O seeing you were and lo! an image one great image the this [was] great and splendor its extraordinary [was] standing before you and appearance its [was] terrible.

“Ìwọ ọba ń wo, ère ńlá kan tí ó dúró níwájú rẹ, ère náà ga, ó sì dára láti wò, ìrísí i rẹ̀ ba ni lẹ́rù jọjọ.

32 It image the head its of gold good breast its and arms its of silver belli its and loins its of bronze.

Orí ère náà jẹ́ kìkì wúrà, àyà rẹ̀ àti ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jẹ́ fàdákà, inú àti ẹ̀gbẹ́ itan rẹ̀ jẹ́ idẹ,

33 Legs its of iron feet its (some of them *Q(K)*) of iron (and some of them *Q(K)*) of clay.

àwọn ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ jẹ́ irin, àwọn àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ jẹ́ apá kan irin àti apá kan amọ̀.

34 Seeing you were until that it was cut out a stone which not [was] by hands and it struck image the on feet its of iron the and clay the and it shattered them.

Bí ó ṣe ń wò, òkúta kan wá, tí kò wá láti ọwọ́ ẹnìkankan. Ó kọlu ère náà ní àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ irin àti amọ̀, ó sì fọ́ wọn sí wẹ́wẹ́.

35 Then they were shattered as one iron the clay the bronze the silver the and gold the and they were like chaff from threshing floors of summer and it carried away them wind the and any place not it was found for them and stone the - which it struck image the it became a mountain great and it filled all earth the.

Nígbà náà ni irin, amọ̀, idẹ, fàdákà àti wúrà fọ́ sí wẹ́wẹ́ lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà, ó sì dàbí ìyàngbò tí a fẹ́ kúrò lórí ọkà ní àsìkò ẹ̀ẹ̀rùn. Afẹ́fẹ́ gbé gbogbo rẹ̀ lọ láìṣẹ́ku ọ̀kan mọ́, òkúta tí ó fọ́ ère náà sì di òkè ńlá, ó sì gba gbogbo ayé.

36 This [was] dream the and interpretation its we will tell before king the.

“Èyí ni àlá náà, nígbà yìí ni a ó wá sọ ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ fún ọba.

37 (You *Q(k)*) king O [are] [the] king of kings the whom [the] God of heavens the kingdom the power the and strength the and honor the he has given to you.

Ìwọ ọba jẹ́ ọba àwọn ọba. Ọlọ́run ọ̀run ti fi ìjọba agbára, títóbi àti ògo fún ọ;

38 And over all that ([are] dwelling *Q(k)*) [the] sons of humankind [the] animal[s] of field the and [the] bird[s] of heavens the he has given in hand your and he has made ruler you over all of them (you *Q(K)*) [are] it head the of gold.

39 And after you it will arise a kingdom another earthward more than you and a kingdom (third *Q(k)*) another of bronze the which it will rule over all earth the.

“Lẹ́yìn èyí ni ìjọba mìíràn yóò dìde, tí kò ní lágbára tó tìrẹ, lẹ́yìn in rẹ̀, ìjọba kẹta tí yóò dàbí idẹ, èyí tí yóò jẹ ọba lórí i gbogbo ayé.

40 And a kingdom (fourth *Q(k)*) it will be strong like iron as to because that iron the [is] shattering and [is] crushing everything and like iron which [is] crushing all these it will shatter so it may crush.

Ju gbogbo rẹ̀ lọ, ìjọba kẹrin yóò wà, ìjọba náà yóò lágbára bí irin, gẹ́gẹ́ bí irin ti í fọ́, tó sì ń lọ gbogbo nǹkan àti bí irin ti í fọ́ nǹkan sí wẹ́wẹ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni yóò fọ́ tí yóò sì lọ gbogbo àwọn tókù.

41 And that you saw feet the and toes the (some of them *Q(K)*) clay of a potter (and some of them *Q(K)*) iron a kingdom divided it will be and some of firmness the of iron the it will be in it as to because that you saw iron the mixed with [the] clay of clay the.

Bí o ṣe rí i tí àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ àti ọmọ ìka ẹsẹ̀ jẹ́ apá kan amọ̀ àti apá kan irin, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìjọba yóò ṣe pín; ṣùgbọ́n yóò sì ní agbára irin díẹ̀ nínú rẹ̀, bí ó ṣe rí i tí irin dàpọ̀ mọ́ amọ̀.

42 And [the] toes of feet the (some of them *Q(K)*) iron (and some of them *Q(K)*) clay from [the] part of kingdom the it will be strong and from it it will be breakable.

Bí ọmọ ìka ẹsẹ̀ ṣe jẹ́ apá kan irin àti apá kan amọ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìjọba yìí yóò lágbára lápákan tí kò sì ní lágbára lápákan.

43 (And that *Q(K)*) you saw iron the mixed with [the] clay of clay the mixing they will be with [the] offspring of humankind and not they will be clinging this with this here! like that iron not [is] mixing with clay.

Gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ti rí i tí irin dàpọ̀ mọ́ amọ̀, báyìí ni àwọn ènìyàn yóò ṣe dàpọ̀ mọ́ ara wọn ní ti ìgbéyàwó, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò ní wà ní ìṣọ̀kan, bí irin kò ṣe dàpọ̀ mọ́ amọ̀.

44 And in days their of kings the those he will set up [the] God of heavens the a kingdom which for ever not it will be destroyed and kingdom the to a people another not it will be left it will shatter so it may put an end to all these kingdoms the and it it will endure for ever.

“Ní àsìkò àwọn ọba náà, Ọlọ́run ọ̀run yóò gbé ìjọba èyí tí kò le è bàjẹ́ kalẹ̀, èyí tí a kò ní fi lé ẹlòmíràn lọ́wọ́. Yóò sì run gbogbo ìjọba, yóò sì mú wọn wá sí òpin, ṣùgbọ́n ìjọba yìí yóò dúró láéláé.”

45 As to because that you saw that from mountain it was cut out a stone which not [was] by hands and it shattered iron the bronze the clay the silver the and gold the God great he has made known to king the what that it will be after this and [is] certain dream the and [is] trustworthy interpretation its.

Gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ṣe rí i pé a gé òkúta láti ara òkè, láì ti ọwọ́ ẹnikẹ́ni wá, òkúta èyí tí ó fọ́ irin, idẹ, amọ̀, fàdákà àti wúrà sí wẹ́wẹ́. “Ọlọ́run tí ó tóbi ti fihan ọba, ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ iwájú. Òtítọ́ ni àlá náà, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ ṣe é gbẹ́kẹ̀lé.”

46 Then king the Nebuchadnezzar he fell on face his and to Daniel he paid homage and offering and soothing offerings he said to offer in sacrifice to him.

Nígbà náà, ni Nebukadnessari ọba dojúbolẹ̀ níwájú u Daniẹli ó sì fi orí balẹ̀ fún un, ó sì pàṣẹ pé kí wọn kí ó mu ọrẹ àti òórùn tùràrí fún Daniẹli.

47 [was] replying King the to Daniel and [was] saying from truth that God your he [is the] God of gods and [the] lord of kings and [one who] reveals secrets that you have been able to reveal secret the this.

Ọba wí fún Daniẹli pé, “Dájúdájú Ọlọ́run rẹ ni Ọlọ́run àwọn ọlọ́run àti Olúwa àwọn ọba gbogbo àti olùfihàn àwọn àṣírí, nítorí tí ìwọ lè fi àṣírí yìí hàn.”

48 Then king the Daniel he made great and gifts great many he gave to him and he made ruler him over all [the] province of Babylon and chief of prefects over all [the] wise men of Babylon.

Nígbà náà ni ọba gbé Daniẹli ga, ó sì fún un ní ẹ̀bùn ńlá tí ó pọ̀. Ó sì fi ṣe olórí i gbogbo agbègbè ìjọba Babeli àti olórí gbogbo àwọn amòye Babeli.

49 And Daniel he asked from king the and he appointed over administration the of [the] province of Babylon Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego and Daniel [was] in [the] gate king the.
