我一の夢を見て之がために懼れ即ち床にありてその事を想ひめぐらしその我腦中の異象のために心をなやませり

是に於て我命を下しバビロンの智者をことごとく我前に召よせしめてその夢の解明を我にしめさせんと爲たれば
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.
すなはち博士法術士カルデヤ人卜筮師等きたりしに囚て我その夢を彼らに語りけるに彼らはその解明を我にしめすことを得ざりき
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.
かくて後ダニエルわが前に來れり彼の名は吾神の名にしたがひてベルテシヤザルと稱へられその裏には聖神の霊やどれり我その夢を彼の前に語りて曰けらく

その葉は美しくその菓は饒にして一切の者その中より食を得また野の獣その蔭に臥し空の鳥その枝に棲み凡て血氣ある者みな是によりて身を養ふ

但しその根の上の斬株を地に遺しおき鐵と銅の索をかけて之を野の草の中にあらしめよ是は天よりくだる露に濕れまた地の草の中にて獣とその分を同じうせん
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.
又その心は變りて人間の心のごとくならず獣の心を稟て七の時を經ん

この事は警寤者等の命によりこの事は聖者等の言による是至高者人間の國を治めて自己の意のままにこれを人に與へまた人の中の最も賤き者をその上に立たまふといふ事を一切の者に知しめんがためなり

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.
汝が見たまひし樹すなはちその長じて強くなり天に達するほどの高となりて地の極までも見えわたり
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.

王また一箇の警寤者一箇の聖者の天より下りて斯言ふを見たまへり云くこの樹を伐たふして之をそこなへ但し其根の上の斬株を地に遺しおき鐵と銅の索をかけて之を野の草の中にあらしめよ是は天より下る露に濡れ野の獣とその分を同じうして七の時を經ん
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.
王よその解明は是の如し是即ち至高者の命にして王我主に臨まんとする者なり
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.
即ち汝は逐れて世の人と離れ野の獣とともに居り牛のごとくに草を食ひ天よりくだる露に濡れん是の如くにして七の時を經て汝つひに知ん至高者人間の國を治めて自己の意のままに之を人に與へ給ふと
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.
又彼らその樹の根の上の斬株を遺しおけと言たれば汝の國は汝が天は主たりと知にいたる時まで汝を離れん

然ば王よ吾諌を容れ義をおこなひて罪を離れ貧者を憐みて惡を離れよ然らば汝の平安あるひは長く続かんと
28 Everything it came on Nebuchadnezzar king the.
この事みなネブカデネザル王に臨めり
29 To [the] end of months two [plus] ten on [the] palace of kingdom the of Babylon walking about he was.
十二箇月を經て後王バビロンの王宮の上に歩みをり
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.
王すなはち語りて言ふ此大なるバビロンは我が大なる力をもて建て京城となし之をもてわが威光を耀かす者ならずや
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.
その言なほ王の口にある中に天より聲降りて言ふネブカデネザル王よ汝に告ぐ汝は國の位を失はん
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.
汝は逐れて世の人と離れ野の獣と共に居り牛のごとくに草を食はん斯の如くにして七の時を經て汝つひに知ん至高者人間の國を治めて己れの意のままにこれを人に與へたまふと
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.
その時直にこの事ネブカデネザルに臨み彼は逐れて世の人に離れ牛のごとくに草を食ひてその身は天よりくだる露に濡れ終にその髮毛は鷲の羽のごとくになりその爪は鳥の爪のごとくになりぬ
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.
斯てその日の滿たる後我ネブカデネザル目をあげて天を望みしにわが分別性我に歸りたれば我至高者に感謝しその永遠に生る者を讃かつ崇めたり彼の御宇は永遠の御宇彼の國は世々かぎり無し
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.
地上の居民は凡て無き者のごとし天の衆群にも地の居民にも彼はその意のままに事をなしたまふ誰も彼の手をおさへて汝なんぞ然するやと言ことを得る者なし
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.
この時わが分別性かく我に歸りたりしがわが國の榮光につきてはまた我の尊嚴と光耀我にかへれり且また大臣牧伯等我に請求めて我ふたたび國の祚を踐み前よりも著しく威光を増たり
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.
是において我ネブカデネザル今は天の王を讃頌へかつ崇む彼の作爲は凡て眞實彼の道は正義自ら高ぶる者は彼能くこれを卑くしたまふ
