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.

Men mesaj wa Nèbikadneza voye bay tout pèp, moun tout ras nan tout peyi ki pale lòt lang toupatou sou latè: -Gwo bonjou ak anpil kè poze pou nou tout.

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.

Se yon plezi pou mwen pou m' fè nou konnen mirak ak bèl bagay Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la fè pou mwen.

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.

Bèl bagay li fè yo pa piti! Mirak li fè yo se gwo zafè! Bondye ap gouvènen pou tout tan. Otorite l' la la jouk sa kaba nèt.

4 I Nebuchadnezzar at ease I was in house my and flourishing in palace my.

Mwen menm, Nèbikadneza, mwen t'ap viv alèz lakay mwen. Tout zafè m' t'ap mache byen nan palè a.

5 A dream I saw and it made afraid me and imaginings on bed my and [the] visions of head my they alarmed me.

Men, mwen fè yon rèv ki boulvèse m' anpil. Antan m' t'ap dòmi, yon bann vye lide t'ap travay nan tèt mwen, epi mwen te fè yon vizyon ki t'ap trakase tèt mwen.

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.

Mwen bay lòd pou yo fè chache tout nèg save ki nan lavil Babilòn pou yo vin ban m' esplikasyon rèv la.

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.

Dènye majisyen, dènye moun ki li zetwal, dènye divinò ak dènye nèg save vini. Mwen rakonte yo rèv la, men yo pa t' ka esplike m' sa li vle di.

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.

Apre sa, Danyèl vini devan mwen. Yo te ba li yon lòt non dapre non bondye mwen an: Yo te rele l' Beltechaza. Li gen lespri bondye yo nan li. Mwen rakonte l' rèv mwen te fè a.

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!

Mwen di l': Beltechaza, ou menm ki chèf majisyen yo, mwen konnen ou gen lespri bondye yo nan ou, kifè pa gen mistè ou pa konprann. Men sa mwen te wè nan rèv mwen te fè a. Di m' kisa li vle di:

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.

Antan mwen t'ap dòmi, mwen fè yon vizyon: Mwen wè yon gwo pyebwa byen kanpe nan mitan latè.

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.

Pyebwa a grandi, li grandi jouk tèt li rive nan syèl. Toupatou sou latè moun te ka wè l'.

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.

Fèy li yo te bèl. Li te chaje ak donn. Te gen kont pou tout moun manje. Li te bay gwo lonbray pou bèt nan bwa yo pare solèy. Zwezo te fè nich nan tout branch li yo. Li te bay manje pou tout kalite bèt ak pou tout moun.

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.

Nan dòmi an, antan mwen t'ap kalkile sou rèv la, mwen wè yon zanj Bondye soti nan syèl la desann. Se te yonn nan zanj gadyen yo.

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.

Li pale byen fò, li di konsa: Koupe pyebwa a met atè. Debranche l' nèt. Rache tout fèy li yo. Gaye tout donn li yo. Fè tout bèt soti anba lonbraj li. Fè tout zwezo vole kite branch li yo.

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.

Men, kite yon gwo chouk ak tout rasin li nan tè. Mare l' ak chenn fèt an fè ak kwiv. Kite l' la konsa nan mitan zèb yo. Se pou lawouze tonbe sou nonm sa a. Se pou l' manje zèb nan savann tankou bèt nan bwa.

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.

Pandan sètan, li p'ap gen lespri tankou tout moun. L'ap san konprann tankou yon bèt.

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)*)

Se desizyon sa a zanj gadyen yo pran. Se jijman sa a zanj Bondye yo bay. Se pou tout moun sou latè konnen Bondye ki nan syèl la gen pouvwa sou tout chèf. Li bay moun li vle pouvwa pou yo gouvènen. Li pran moun ki pi ba a, li fè l' moute!

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.

Men rèv mwen menm, wa Nèbikadneza, mwen te fè a. Koulye a, ou menm Beltechaza, esplike m' sa li vle di. Pa gen yonn nan tout nèg save peyi m' lan ki te ka fè m' konnen sans rèv la. Men ou menm, ou kapab, paske lespri bondye yo nan ou.

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)*)

Lè sa a, Danyèl ki te rele Beltechaza tou, rete yon bon ti tan li pa di anyen, paske tèt li te boulvèse. Wa a di l' konsa: -Beltechaza monchè, pa kite rèv la ak esplikasyon l' lan boulvèse tèt ou! Beltechaza reponn: -Monwa, mwen ta swete rèv la ak tout esplikasyon l' lan pa pou ou, men pou lènmi ou yo, pou moun ki pa vle wè ou yo.

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.

Pyebwa ou te wè ki t'ap grandi, ki t'ap gwosi jouk tèt li rive nan syèl la kifè dènye moun sou latè te ka wè l' la,

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.

pyebwa ki te gen fèy li yo bèl, ki te chaje donn kont pou tout moun sou latè te manje, ki te gen bèt nan bwa rete anba lonbray li ak zwezo ki te fè nich nan tout branch li yo,

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.

pyebwa sa a se ou menm, monwa, ki grandi, ki vin fò. Ou sitèlman grandi ou rive jouk nan syèl la. Ou chèf sou tout latè.

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.

Apre sa, antan wa a t'ap gade, li wè yon zanj Bondye soti nan syèl la desann, epi ki di: Koupe pyebwa a mete l' atè, detwi li. Men, kite chouk la nan tè ak tout rasin li yo. Mare l' ak chenn fèt an fè ak kwiv. Lèfini, kite l' nan mitan zèb yo. Kite lawouze tonbe sou nonm sa a, kite l' viv ak bèt nan bwa yo pandan sètan.

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.

Bon, koulye a, men sa rèv la vle di monwa. Men sa Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la di ki pral rive ou.

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.

Yo pral voye ou byen lwen pou ou pa mache sou moun. Ou pral rete ak bèt nan bwa pandan sètan. Ou pral manje zèb tankou bèf, ou pral dòmi deyò pou lawouze bat ou. Apre sa, w'a rekonèt se Bondye nan syèl la ki kontwole tout chèf sou latè. Se li menm ki bay moun li vle dwa pou yo gouvènen.

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.

Zanj yo te di pou yo te kite chouk la ak tout rasin li yo nan tè. Sa vle di w'ap moute wa ankò lè w'a rekonèt se Bondye nan syèl la k'ap gouvènen sou tout latè.

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.

Se poutèt sa, monwa, koute konsèy m'ap ba ou. Fè sa ki dwat devan Bondye pou kouvri peche ou yo. Gen pitye pou pòv malere yo pou kouvri tout mechanste ou yo! Konsa, monwa, w'a ka viv alèz ak kè poze pou lontan ankò.

28 Everything it came on Nebuchadnezzar king the.

Tou sa Danyèl te di a rive wa Nèbikadneza vre.

29 To [the] end of months two [plus] ten on [the] palace of kingdom the of Babylon walking about he was.

Douz mwa apre sa, wa a t'ap pwonmennen sou teras palè li a lavil Babilòn,

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.

li di konsa: -Gade jan lavil Babilòn lan vin gran non! Se mwen menm ki bati l' ak fòs kouraj mwen pou l' sèvi m' kapital peyi a, pou fè wè jan mwen gen pouvwa, jan mwen grannèg.

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.

Wa a pa t' ankò fèmen bouch li, lè yon vwa rete nan syèl la, li di: -Wa Nèbikadneza, koute sa m'ap di ou. Depi jòdi a, yo wete pouvwa a nan men ou. Ou pa wa ankò.

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.

Yo p'ap kite ou mache sou moun. Ou pral rete ak bèt nan bwa. Ou pral manje zèb tankou bèf pandan sètan, jouk w'a rekonèt se Bondye nan syèl la ki kontwole tout chèf sou latè. Se li menm ki bay moun li vle dwa pou yo gouvènen.

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.

Lamenm sa pawòl la te di a rive vre. Yo mete wa a deyò pou l' pa mache sou moun. Li t'ap manje zèb tankou bèf. Lawouze tonbe sou tout kò l'. Cheve nan tèt li pouse tankou plim malfini, zong li yo vin long tankou grif zwezo.

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.

Wa a di ankò: -Apre sètan sa yo, mwen menm Nèbikadneza, mwen leve je m' mwen gade syèl la. Bonnanj mwen vin sou mwen. Mwen di Bondye nan syèl la mèsi, mwen fè lwanj Bondye k'ap viv pou tout tan tout tan an, mwen rekonèt jan li gen pouvwa. L'ap donminen pou tout tan. Gouvènman li ap la jouk sa kaba.

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.

Li pa pran moun k'ap viv sou latè yo pou anyen. Li fè sa li vle ak lame zanj ki nan syèl la, ansanm ak tout moun ki sou latè. Pesonn pa ka kenbe tèt avè l'. Pesonn pa ka mande l' kont!

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.

Lè bonnanj mwen tounen sou mwen, yo renmèt mwen pouvwa mwen, otorite mwen ak tout bèl bagay mwen te genyen. Konseye mwen yo ak chèf k'ap sèvi mwen yo voye chache m', yo mete m' wa ankò. Mwen vin gen plis pouvwa pase anvan.

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.

Koulye a, mwen menm Nèbikadneza, m'ap fè fèt pou wa ki nan syèl la, m'ap fè lwanj pou li, m'ap di jan li gen pouvwa. Tou sa li fè bon. Li pa fè paspouki pou pesonn. Li konn jan pou l' fè ak moun ki kite lògèy vire tèt yo. L'ap desann kòlèt yo.
