< Daniel 4 >

1 Nebuchadnezzar king the to all peoples the nations the and languages the which ([are] dwelling *Q(k)*) in all earth the peace your may it increase.
Nĩ niĩ Mũthamaki Nebukadinezaru, Ndĩramwandĩkĩra marũa maya inyuĩ andũ a iruka ciothe, na ndũrĩrĩ, na andũ a rwario o ruothe arĩa matũũraga thĩ yothe: Mũrogaacĩra makĩria!
2 Signs the and wonders the which he has done with me God (Most High the *Q(k)*) it seemed good before me to declare.
Ndĩ na gĩkeno ngĩmũmenyithia morirũ na maũndũ ma kũgegania marĩa Ngai-ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ mũno anjĩkĩire.
3 [are] signs His how much! great and [are] wonders his how much! strong kingdom his [is] a kingdom of perpetuity and dominion his [is] with generation and generation.
Kaĩ morirũ make nĩ manene-ĩ!
4 I Nebuchadnezzar at ease I was in house my and flourishing in palace my.
Atĩrĩrĩ, niĩ Nebukadinezaru ndarĩ gwakwa mũciĩ, njiganĩire na ngagaacĩra nyũmba-inĩ yakwa ya ũthamaki.
5 A dream I saw and it made afraid me and imaginings on bed my and [the] visions of head my they alarmed me.
Na rĩrĩ, ũtukũ ũmwe ndarootire kĩroto kĩrĩa kĩamakirie mũno. Ngomete ũrĩrĩ-inĩ wakwa-rĩ, maũndũ marĩa mahĩtũkagĩra meciiria-inĩ makwa na cioneki ikĩndua nda.
6 And from me it was made a decree to bring in before me all [the] wise men of Babylon that [the] interpretation of dream the they will make known to me.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩathana ngiuga atĩ andũ arĩa othe oogĩ a Babuloni mareehwo mbere yakwa nĩguo mandaũrĩre kĩroto kĩu.
7 Then ([were] going in *Q(k)*) magicians the conjurers the (Chaldeans the *Q(K)*) and astrologers the and dream the [was] saying I before them and interpretation its not [they were] making known to me.
Rĩrĩa ago, na aragũri, na arori a njata na arathi mohoro mookire, ngĩmeera ũrĩa ndarooteete, no nĩmaremirwo nĩ kũndaũrĩra kĩroto kĩu.
8 And until at last he came in before me Daniel who name his [is] Belteshazzar like [the] name of god my and who a spirit of gods holy [is] in him and dream the before him I said.
No thuutha wao, Danieli agĩũka mbere yakwa, na niĩ ngĩmwĩra ũrĩa ndarooteete. (Nĩwe wĩtagwo Beliteshazaru tondũ etanĩtio na ngai yakwa, nake akoragwo na roho wa ngai iria theru thĩinĩ wake.)
9 O Belteshazzar [the] chief of magicians the whom - I I know that a spirit of gods holy [is] in you and any secret not [is] oppressing you [the] visions of dream my which I saw and interpretation its tell!
Ngĩĩra Beliteshazaru, mũnene wa ago othe atĩrĩ, “Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ roho wa ngai iria theru ũrĩ thĩinĩ waku, na gũtirĩ ũndũ ũrĩ hitho-inĩ ũngĩkũrema. Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩroto gĩakwa; nawe he ũtaũri wakĩo.
10 And [the] visions of head my on bed my seeing I was and lo! a tree in [the] midst of land the and height its [was] great.
Ici nĩcio cioneki iria ndonire rĩrĩa ndaakomete ũrĩrĩ-inĩ wakwa: Ndarorire ngĩona hau mbere yakwa harũngiĩ mũtĩ ũrĩ bũrũri gatagatĩ. Naguo warĩ mũraihu mũno.
11 It grew great tree the and it grew strong and height its it reached to heavens the and [the] sight of it [was] to [the] end of all land the.
Mũtĩ ũcio ũkĩneneha ũkĩgĩa na hinya nako gacũmbĩrĩ kaguo gakahutia matu mairũ; naguo wonekaga nginya ituri ciothe cia thĩ.
12 Foliage its [was] beautiful and fruit its [was] plentiful and food for all [was] on it under it it had shade - [the] animal[s] of field the and in branches its (they nested *Q(K)*) [the] birds of heavens the and from it it fed all flesh.
Mathangũ maguo maarĩ mathaka, na maciaro maguo makaingĩha warĩ na irio cia kũhũũnia andũ othe. Nyamũ cia gĩthaka ciaikaraga kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩaguo, nacio nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ igaikaraga honge-inĩ ciaguo; indo ciothe iria irĩ muoyo ciarĩĩaga maciaro maguo.
13 Seeing I was in [the] visions of head my on bed my and lo! a watcher and a holy [one] from heavens the [was] coming down.
“Ningĩ o ngomete ũrĩrĩ-inĩ wakwa ngĩrora ngĩona cioneki-inĩ icio, na hau mbere yakwa harĩ na mũrangĩri, mũndũ mũtheru, agĩikũrũka oimĩte igũrũ.
14 [he was] proclaiming With power and as follows [he was] saying cut down! tree the and cut off! branches its strip off! foliage its and scatter! fruit its let it flee animal[s] the from under it and birds the from branches its.
Akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ: Temai mũtĩ ũcio na mũhũrũre honge ciaguo; itithiai mathangũ maguo, na mũhurunje maciaro maguo. Nyamũ nacio ciũre ciehere rungu waguo, o na nyoni ciume honge-inĩ ciaguo.
15 Nevertheless [the] stump of roots its in ground the leave! and with a fetter of iron and bronze in grass the of field the and with [the] dew of heavens the let it become wet and [be] with animal[s] the portion its in [the] grass of earth the.
No rĩrĩ, mũreke gĩthukĩ na mĩri yakĩo ciohwo na kĩgera na gĩcango, nacio itigwo tĩĩri-inĩ, kũu nyeki-inĩ ya gĩthaka. “Nĩaihũgagio nĩ ime rĩa igũrũ, na atũũranagie na nyamũ kũu nyeki-inĩ ĩrĩa nduru ya gĩthaka.
16 Heart its away from (human the *Q(k)*) let it be changed and [the] heart of an animal let it be given to it and seven times let them pass over it.
Meciiria make nĩmagarũrwo matige gũtuĩka ta ma mũndũ, nake agĩe na meciiria ta ma nyamũ, ihinda ta rĩa mĩaka mũgwanja.
17 [is] by [the] decree of Watchers command the and [is by the] word of holy [ones] affair the to [the] cause that they will know living [people] the that [is] having mastery (Most High the *Q(k)*) over [the] kingdom of (human the *Q(k)*) and to whomever whom he will be pleased he will give it and a lowly [one] of humankind he will set up (over it. *Q(k)*)
“‘Itua rĩu rĩanĩrĩirwo nĩ arangĩri, narĩo rĩgekĩrwo hinya nĩ arĩa atheru, nĩgeetha arĩa marĩ muoyo mamenye atĩ Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno nĩwe wathaga mothamaki ma andũ, naguo ũthamaki aũheaga o ũrĩa angĩenda kũũhe, na agatũũgĩria mũndũ ũtarĩ igweta o na hanini nĩguo ũtuĩke wake.’
18 This dream the I saw I king the Nebuchadnezzar (and you *Q(k)*) O Belteshazzar interpretation its - tell! as to because that - all [the] wise men of kingdom my not [are] able interpretation the to make known to me (and you *Q(k)*) [are] able who a spirit of gods holy [is] in you.
“Kĩu nĩkĩo kĩroto kĩrĩa niĩ, Mũthamaki Nebukadinezaru ndarootire. Atĩrĩrĩ, wee Beliteshazaru, ta njĩĩra ũrĩa kiugĩte kuona atĩ andũ arĩa angĩ othe oogĩ a ũthamaki wakwa nĩmaremetwo nĩkũndaũrĩra. No rĩrĩ, wee no ũhote tondũ roho wa ngai iria theru ũrĩ thĩinĩ waku.”
19 Then Daniel who name his [was] Belteshazzar he was appalled about a moment one and thoughts his they alarmed him [was] replying king the and [was] saying O Belteshazzar dream the and interpretation its may not it alarm you [was] replying Belteshazzar and [was] saying (O lord my *Q(k)*) dream the ([be] for enemy your *Q(K)*) and interpretation its ([be] for adversaries your. *Q(k)*)
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Danieli (na nowe wĩtagwo Beliteshazaru) akĩamba gũtangĩka mũno kwa ihinda, na akĩmaka mũno meciiria-inĩ make. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthamaki akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Beliteshazaru, tiga kũmakio nĩ kĩroto kĩu kana ũtaũri wakĩo.” Beliteshazaru agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Mwathi wakwa, naarĩ korwo kĩroto kĩu kĩerekererio thũ ciaku, o na ũtaũri wakĩo wathĩrĩrio andũ arĩa magũthũire!
20 Tree the which you saw which it grew great and it grew strong and height its it reached to heavens the and [the] sight of it [was] to all land the.
Mũtĩ ũcio wonire, ũrĩa wanenehire na ũkĩgĩa na hinya, nako gacũmbĩrĩ kaguo gakahutia matu mairũ, na ũkoonekaga nĩ thĩ yothe,
21 And foliage its [was] beautiful and fruit its [was] plentiful and food for all [was] on it under it it dwelt [the] animal[s] of field the and in branches its they dwelt [the] birds of heavens the.
ũrĩ na mathangũ mathaka na maciaro maingĩ, na ũkaheaga andũ othe irio, na nyamũ cia gĩthaka cikaarahaga kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩaguo, na ũkagĩa na itara honge-inĩ ciaguo cia nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ-rĩ,
22 ([is] you *Q(k)*) It king O who you have grown great and you have grown strong and greatness your it has grown great and it has reached to heavens the and dominion your [is] to [the] end earth the.
wee mũthamaki, nĩwe mũtĩ ũcio! Nĩũnenehete na ũkagĩa na hinya; ũnene waku ũgakũra nginya ũkahutia matu mairũ, naguo wathani waku ũgatambũrũka ũgakinya kũndũ kũraya gũkũ thĩ.
23 And that he saw king the a watcher and a holy [one] coming down - from heavens the and saying cut down! tree the and destroy it nevertheless [the] stump of roots its in ground the leave! and with a fetter of iron and bronze in grass the of field the and with [the] dew of heavens the let it become wet and [be] with [the] animal[s] of field the portion its until that seven times they will pass over it.
“Wee, mũthamaki-rĩ, Nĩwonire mũrangĩri, mũndũ mũtheru, agĩikũrũka oimĩte matu-inĩ, akiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Temai mũtĩ ũcio na mũwanange, no mũtige gĩthukĩ kĩohetwo na kĩgera na gĩcango, kũu nyeki-inĩ ya gĩthaka nayo mĩri yakĩo ĩtigwo tĩĩri-inĩ. Nake nĩaihũgagio nĩ ime rĩa matu-inĩ; nĩaikarage ta nyamũ cia gĩthaka ihinda rĩa mĩaka mũgwanja.’
24 This [is] interpretation the king O and [is] [the] decree of (Most High the *Q(k)*) it which it has reached to (lord my *Q(k)*) king the.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, wee mũthamaki, ũtaũri wa kĩroto kĩu nĩguo ũyũ, narĩo ituĩro rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo nĩ Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno nĩguo rĩgũkore wee, mũthamaki, mwathi wakwa, nĩrĩo rĩĩrĩ:
25 And you [they will be] chasing away from humankind and with [the] animal[s] of field the it will be dwelling place your and grass like oxen - to you they will feed and from [the] dew of heavens the you [they will be] making wet and seven times they will pass (over you *Q(k)*) until that you will know that [is] having mastery (Most High the *Q(k)*) over [the] kingdom of humankind and to whomever whom he will be pleased he will give it.
Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩũkaingatwo weherio kuuma kũrĩ andũ, ũgatũũranagie na nyamũ cia gĩthaka; ũkaarĩĩaga nyeki ta ngʼombe, na ũihũgagio nĩ ime rĩa kuuma igũrũ. Mĩaka mũgwanja nĩĩgathira, o nginya ũmenye atĩ Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno nĩwe ũthamakagĩra mothamaki mothe ma andũ, na akamaheana kũrĩ o ũrĩa angĩenda.
26 And that they said to leave [the] stump of roots its of tree the kingdom your to you [will be] enduring from that you will know that [are] having mastery heavens the.
Watho ũrĩa woigire gĩthukĩ na mĩri yakĩo gĩtigwo, nĩ kuuga atĩ nĩũgacookerio ũthamaki waku rĩrĩa ũkaamenya atĩ wathani uumaga Igũrũ.
27 Therefore king O advice my let it be acceptable (to you *Q(k)*) (and sin your *Q(K)*) by right doing break off! and iniquities your by showing mercy to poor people whether it will be a prolonging of prosperity your.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, wee mũthamaki, ĩtĩkĩra kũigua ũtaaro wakwa: Tigana na mehia maku, wĩkage maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire, na ũtige waganu waku, na ũndũ wa kũiguĩra arĩa ahinyĩrĩrie tha. Hihi kwahoteka ũgaacĩru waku ũthiĩ na mbere.”
28 Everything it came on Nebuchadnezzar king the.
Na rĩrĩ, maũndũ macio mothe nĩmakorire Mũthamaki Nebukadinezaru.
29 To [the] end of months two [plus] ten on [the] palace of kingdom the of Babylon walking about he was.
Thuutha wa mĩeri ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ, rĩrĩa mũthamaki aaceerangaga arĩ nyũmba igũrũ ya ũthamaki kũu Babuloni,
30 [was] replying King the and [was] saying ¿ not [is] this it Babylon great which I I built it to a house of a kingdom by [the] strength of power my and for [the] honor of majesty my.
akiuga atĩrĩ, “Githĩ ĩno tiyo Babuloni, itũũra inene rĩrĩa njakĩte rĩrĩ gĩikaro kĩa mũthamaki, na ũndũ wa ũhoti wakwa mũingĩ, na nĩ ũndũ wa riiri wa ũnene wakwa?”
31 Still word the [was] in [the] mouth of king the a voice from heavens the it fell to you [they are] saying O Nebuchadnezzar king the kingdom the it has passed away from you.
Kahinda o kau aaragia, mũgambo ũkiuma igũrũ, ũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo ituĩro rĩrĩa ũtuĩrĩirwo, Mũthamaki Nebukadinezaru: Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩwehererio ũhoti wa ũthamaki waku.
32 And away from humankind you [they are] about to chase and [will be] with [the] animal[s] of field the dwelling place your grass like oxen to you they will feed and seven times they will pass (over you *Q(k)*) until that you will know that [is] having mastery (Most High the *Q(k)*) over [the] kingdom of humankind and to whomever whom he will be pleased he will give it.
Nĩũkũingatwo weherio kuuma kũrĩ andũ, ũgatũũranagie na nyamũ cia gĩthaka; ũrĩrĩĩaga nyeki ta ngʼombe. Mĩaka mũgwanja nĩĩgũthira, o nginya ũmenye atĩ, Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno nĩwe ũthamakagĩra mothamaki mothe ma andũ, na akamaheana kũrĩ o ũrĩa angĩenda.”
33 At it moment the word the it was fulfilled on Nebuchadnezzar and away from humankind he was chased and grass like oxen he ate and from [the] dew of heavens the body his it became wet until that hair his like eagles it grew long and nails his [were] like birds.
O hĩndĩ ĩyo ituĩro rĩrĩa rĩatuĩrĩirwo Nebukadinezaru rĩkĩhinga. Akĩingatwo, akĩeherio kuuma kũrĩ andũ, na akĩrĩa nyeki ta ngʼombe. Mwĩrĩ wake waihũgagio nĩ ime rĩa igũrũ, o nginya njuĩrĩ yake ĩkĩraiha o ta njoya cia nderi, na ndwara ciake ikĩraiha o ta cia nyoni.
34 And to [the] end of days the I Nebuchadnezzar eye my - to heavens the I lifted and understanding my on me it returned (and Most High the *Q(k)*) I blessed and [the] [one] living of perpetuity I praised and I glorified that dominion his [is] a dominion of perpetuity and kingdom his [is] with generation and generation.
Na rĩrĩ, mĩaka ĩyo yathira-rĩ, niĩ, Nebukadinezaru, ngĩtiira maitho makwa na igũrũ, na ngĩcookererwo nĩ ũgima wa meciiria makwa. Ningĩ ngĩgooca Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno; ngĩmũtĩĩa na ngĩkumia ũcio ũtũũraga muoyo tene na tene.
35 And all ([the] inhabitants of *Q(k)*) earth the [are] as not considered and as pleases he [he is] doing with [the] army of heavens the (and [the] inhabitants of *Q(k)*) earth the and not there [is] who he will strike on hand his so he may say to him what? have you done.
Andũ othe a gũkũ thĩ
36 At it time the understanding my - it returned to me and to [the] honor of kingdom my majesty my and splendor my it returned to me and me counselors my and nobles my they sought and over kingdom my it was established and greatness surpassing it was added to me.
O ihinda-inĩ o rĩu ndaacookereirwo nĩ ũgima wa meciiria makwa-rĩ, norĩo ndaacookeirio gĩtĩĩo gĩakwa na ũkaru wakwa nĩgeetha ũthamaki wakwa ũgĩe na riiri. Ningĩ ataari akwa na andũ arĩa maarĩ igweta makĩĩnyamũkĩra, ngĩcookio gĩtĩ-inĩ gĩakwa kĩa ũnene, na ngĩneneha gũkĩra mbere.
37 Now I Nebuchadnezzar [am] praising and [am] lifting up and [am] glorifying [the] king of heavens the who all deeds his [are] truth and ways his [are] justice and [those] who [are] walking in pride [he is] able to bring low.
Na rĩrĩ, niĩ Nebukadinezaru-rĩ, nĩngũkumia, na ndũũgĩrie, na ngooce Mũthamaki wa igũrũ, nĩgũkorwo maũndũ marĩa mothe ekaga nĩmagĩrĩire, na mĩthiĩre yake yothe nĩ ya kĩhooto. Nao arĩa mathiiaga na mwĩgaatho nĩahotaga kũmanyiihia.
