11 And whoever that not he will fall down so he may pay homage he will be thrown to [the] midst of [the] furnace of fire the burning.
na obiara a wantie ankɔto ansɔre ohoni no, wɔde no bɛto fononoo a ogya redɛre framfram wɔ mu no mu.
12 There [are] men Jewish whom you have appointed them over [the] administration of [the] province of Babylon Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego men the these not they have set (to you *Q(k)*) king O discretion (to god your *Q(K)*) not [they are] paying reverence and to [the] image of gold which you have set up not [they are] paying homage.
Nanso, Nana, Yudafoɔ bi a wɔn din de Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego a wode wɔn atuatua Babiloniaman ano no abu wo animtia, na wansɔre wʼanyame anaa sikakɔkɔɔ ohoni a wode asi hɔ no.”
13 Then Nebuchadnezzar in rage and anger he said to bring Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego then men the these they were brought before king the.
Ɛhɔ ara, Nebukadnessar bo fuu yie, na ɔhyɛɛ sɛ, wɔmfa Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego mmra nʼanim. Wɔde wɔn baeɛ no,
14 [was] replying Nebuchadnezzar and [was] saying to them ¿ purpose O Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego to gods my not are you [are] paying reverence and to [the] image of gold which I have set up not [you are] paying homage.
Nebukadnessar bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego, ɛyɛ nokorɛ sɛ, moansɔre mʼanyame ne sikakɔkɔɔ ohoni a mede asi hɔ no?
15 Now if are you ready that at time the which you will hear [the] sound of horn the flute the (zither *Q(k)*) trigon harp and pipe and all - kinds of music you will fall down so you may pay homage to image the which I have made and if not you will pay homage at it moment the you will be thrown to [the] midst of [the] furnace of fire the burning and who? he [is the] god who he will deliver you from hands my.
Mɛma mo ɛkwan bio. Sɛ mote abɛn, odurugya sankuo, sankuba sankuo, bɛnta, atɛntɛbɛn ne nnwontodeɛ ahodoɔ nyinaa nnyegyeeɛ no, na mokoto fam, na mosɔre ohoni a mayɛ no a, na me ne mo nni asɛm biara. Na sɛ mopo a, wɔbɛto mo agu fononoo a ogya redɛre wɔ mu no mu prɛko pɛ. Sɛ ɛba saa a, nyame bɛn na ɔbɛtumi agye mo afiri me tumi ase?”
16 They replied Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego and [they were] saying to king the Nebuchadnezzar not [are] needing we concerning this affair to send back to you.
Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego buaa sɛ, “Ao, Nana Nebukadnessar, yɛnnye nni sɛ ɛho hia sɛ yɛyi yɛn ho ano wɔ wʼanim.
17 If there [is] God our whom we [are] paying reverence [is] being able to deliver us from [the] furnace of fire the burning and from hand your king O he will deliver.
Sɛ wɔto yɛn gu fononoo a ogya redɛre wɔ mu no mu a, Onyankopɔn a yɛsom no no bɛgye yɛn. Nana, ɔbɛgye yɛn afiri wo tumi ase.
18 And if not known let it be to you king O that (to god your *Q(K)*) not (are we *Q(k)*) paying reverence and to [the] image of gold which you have set up not we will pay homage.
Na sɛ ɛba sɛ wannye yɛn mpo a, Nana nte aseɛ sɛ, sɔre deɛ, yɛrensɔre wʼanyame anaa sikakɔkɔɔ ohoni a wode asi hɔ no da biara da.”
19 Then Nebuchadnezzar he was filled anger and [the] image of face his (it was changed *Q(K)*) against Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego [he was] replying and [he was] saying to heat furnace the one seven over that [was] proper to heat it.
Nebukadnessar bo fuu Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego yie, na wampɛ wɔn anim ahwɛ. Ɔhyɛɛ sɛ, wɔmma fononoo no ogya no hyeɛ no nnɔ mmɔho nson.
20 And to men mighty men of power who [were] in army his he said to bind Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego to throw to [the] furnace of fire the burning.
Afei, ɔhyɛɛ nʼakodɔm mu mmarima ahoɔdenfoɔ pa ara no bi sɛ, wɔnkyekyere Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego, na wɔnto wɔn ngu fononoo no mu ogyadɛreɛ no mu.
21 Then men the these they were bound in mantles their (trousers their *Q(k)*) and caps their and clothes their and they were thrown to [the] midst of [the] furnace of fire the burning.
Enti, wɔkyekyeree saa nkurɔfoɔ yi a wɔhyehyɛ wɔn ntwontwo, wɔn ntadeɛ, wɔn mmotire ne wɔn ntoma papee, too wɔn guu fononoo ogya a ɛrederɛ no mu.
22 As to because this from that [the] word of king the being harsh and furnace the [was] heated exceedingly men the these who they took up Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego it killed them flame the of fire the.
Na ɛsiane ɔhene no abufutrasoɔ ne ɔhyɛ a ama fononoo no adɔ hyeehyeehye aborosoɔ no enti, asraafoɔ a wɔde Sadrak, Mesak, ne Abednego regu fononoo no mu no wuwuu ogyaframa no ano.
23 And men the these three of them Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego they fell to [the] midst of [the] furnace of fire the burning bound.
Na Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego a wɔakyekyere wɔn pampee no hwehwee ogya fononoo a ɛrederɛ no mu.
24 Then Nebuchadnezzar king the he was alarmed and he arose in haste [he was] replying and [he was] saying to counselors his ¿ not men three did we throw to [the] midst of fire the bound [they were] replying and [they were] saying to king the certain king O.
Nebukadnessar gu so rehwɛ no, prɛko pɛ, ɔhuri teaam ahodwirie so guu nʼafotufoɔ no so sɛ, “Ɛnnyɛ mmarima baasa na yɛkyekyeree wɔn too wɔn guu fononoo no mu?” Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Aane, Nana, yɛyɛɛ saa pɛpɛɛpɛ.”
25 [he was] replying And [he was] saying look! I [am] seeing men four loosed [they are] walking in [the] midst of fire the and hurt not there [is] on them and appearance his of (fourth the *Q(k)*) [is] like a son of [the] gods.
Nebukadnessar teaam sɛ. “Monhwɛ! Mehunu nnipa baanan a biribiara nkyekyeree wɔn sɛ wɔnenam ogya no mu. Egya dɛreɛ no nhyee wɔn. Onipa a ɔtɔ so ɛnan no te sɛ anyame ba bi!”
26 Then he approached Nebuchadnezzar to [the] door of [the] furnace of fire the burning [he was] replying and [he was] saying O Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego servants his of God (Most High the *Q(k)*) come out! and come! then [were] coming out Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego from [the] midst of fire the.
Na Nebukadnessar twe bɛnee fononoo a ogya redɛre wɔ mu no ɛpono ano, sɛdeɛ ɔbɛtumi, teaam sɛ, “Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego, ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn asomfoɔ, momfiri mmra! Mommra ha!” Ɛno enti, Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego firii ogya no mu baeɛ.
27 And [were] gathered satraps the prefects the and governors the and [the] counselors of king the [they were] seeing men the these that not it had had power fire the over body their and [the] hair of head their not it was singed and mantles their not they were changed and [the] smell of fire not it had touched on them.
Afei, ahenemma, mpanimfoɔ, amradofoɔ ne afotufoɔ bɛtwaa wɔn ho hyiaeɛ, na wɔhunuu sɛ, ogya no anka wɔn. Wɔn tirinwi mpo ho anka. Na wɔn ntadeɛ anhye. Na wisie mpo mmɔn wɔn ho.
28 [was] replying Nebuchadnezzar and [he was] saying [be] blessed God their of Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego who he has sent angel his and he has delivered servants his who they trusted on him and [the] word of king the they violated and they gave (body their *Q(K)*) that not they will pay reverence and not they will pay homage to any god except to own God their.
Afei, Nebukadnessar kaa sɛ, “Ayɛyie nka Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego Onyankopɔn. Ɔsomaa ne ɔbɔfoɔ, ma wɔbɛgyee nʼasomfoɔ a wɔgye no die. Wɔbuu me ɔhene mmara so, na wɔde wɔn honam maeɛ, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a wɔrensom na wɔrensɔre anyame biara gye wɔn Onyankopɔn.
29 And from me it is made a decree that any people nation and language which it will say (negligence *Q(K)*) against God their of Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego members he will be made and house his a refuse-heap it will be made as to because that not there [is] a god another who he is able to rescue like this.
Ne saa enti, merehyɛ saa mmara yi sɛ ɔman, nkurɔfoɔ ne kasa ahodoɔ nyinaa mu, obiara a ɔbɛka Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego Onyankopɔn ho abususɛm no, ampa ara wɔbɛtwitwa wɔn mu asinasini na wɔadwiri wɔn afie ama adane wira. Onyame biara nni hɔ a ɔbɛtumi agye nkwa sɛɛ yi.”
30 Then king the he caused to prosper Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego in [the] province of Babylon.
Afei, Ɔhene Nebukadnessar maa Sadrak, Mesak ne Abednego dibea a ɛkorɔn yie wɔ Babiloniaman mu.
