< Daniel 5 >

1 Belshazzar king the he made a feast great for nobles his a thousand and before thousand the wine [he was] drinking.
I tukua ha hakari nui e Kingi Perehatara ma etahi o ana ariki, kotahi te mano, a inu waina ana ia i te aroaro o te mano.
2 Belshazzar he said - in [the] taste of wine the to bring [the] vessels of gold and silver which he had brought out Nebuchadnezzar father his from temple the which [was] in Jerusalem so they may drink with them king the and nobles his wives his and concubines his.
I te mea e inu waina ana a Perehatara, ka whakahau ia kia kawea mai nga oko, nga mea koura, nga mea hiriwa, i tangohia e tona papa, e Nepukaneha, i roto i te temepara i Hiruharama; hei mea inu ma te kingi, ma ana rangatira, ma ana wahine, ma ana wahine hoahoa.
3 Then they brought [the] vessels of gold which they had brought out from temple the which [was] [the] house of God which [was] in Jerusalem and they drank with them king the and nobles his wives his and concubines his.
Katahi ka kawea mai e ratou nga oko koura i tangohia i roto i te temepara o te whare o te Atua i Hiruharama; a inu ana ki aua mea te kingi, ana ariki, ana wahine, me ana wahine hoahoa.
4 They drank wine the and they praised [the] gods of gold and silver bronze iron wood and stone.
Inu waina ana ratou, whakamoemiti ana ki nga atua, ki nga mea koura, hiriwa, parahi, rino, rakau, kohatu.
5 At it moment the (they went forth *Q(K)*) fingers of a hand of a human and [they were] writing before candlestick the on plaster the of [the] wall of palace the of king the and king the [was] seeing [the] palm of hand the which [was] writing.
I taua haora ka puta mai nga maihao o tetahi ringa tangata, kei te tuhituhi ki te ritenga ake o te turanga rama, ki te paninga i te taha o te whare o te kingi: a ka kite te kingi i te wahi o te ringa nana te tuhituhi.
6 Then king the brightness his they changed him and thoughts his they alarmed him and [the] joints of loin[s] his [were] loosened and knees his this [one] to this [one] [were] knocking.
Katahi ka puta ke te mata o te kingi, raruraru ana ia i ona whakaaro, a tangoro iho nga hononga o tona hope, kei te aki mai ano ona turi ki a raua.
7 [was] calling King the with power to bring in conjurers the (Chaldeans the *Q(K)*) and astrologers the [was] replying king the and [was] saying - to [the] wise men of Babylon that any person who he will read aloud writing the this and interpretation its he will declare to me purple he will be clothed (and necklace the *Q(k)*) of gold [will be] on neck his and third in kingdom the he will rule.
Na nui atu te karanga a te kingi kia kawea mai nga kaititiro whetu, nga Karari, nga tohunga tuaahu. A i korero te kingi, i mea ki nga tangata whakaaro nui o Papurona, Ko te tangata e korerotia ai tenei tuhituhi, a ka whakaaturia mai e ia tona tik anga ki ahau, he ngangana te kakahu mona, he mekameka koura ano mo tona kaki, a ko ia ano hei rangatira tuatoru i te kingitanga.
8 Then ([were] going in *Q(k)*) all [the] wise men of king the and not [they were] able writing the to read aloud (and interpretation its *Q(K)*) to make known to king the.
Katahi ka haere mai nga tangata whakaaro nui katoa e te kingi: heoi kihai i ahei te korero i te tuhituhi, kihai ano i whakaatu i tona tikanga ki te kingi.
9 Then king the Belshazzar exceedingly [was] alarmed and brightness his [were] changing on him and nobles his [were] dumbfounded.
Katahi ka nui atu te raruraru o Kingi Perehatara, ka puta ke tona mata, a tahurihuri ana ana ariki.
10 Queen the before [the] words of king the and nobles his to [the] house of feast the (she went in *Q(k)*) she replied queen the and she said king O for ever live! may not they alarm you thought[s] your and brightness your may not they be changed.
Na ka haere te kuini ki te whare hakari, na nga kupu hoki a te kingi ratou ko ana ariki: na ka korero te kuini, ka mea, E te kingi, kia ora tonu koe: kei raruraru koe i ou whakaaro, kei puta ke tou mata.
11 There [is] a man in kingdom your who a spirit of gods holy [is] in him and in [the] days of father your illumination and insight and wisdom like [the] wisdom of gods it was found in him and king the Nebuchadnezzar father your chief of [the] magicians conjurers Chaldeans astrologers he appointed him father your king the.
He tangata tenei kei tou kingitanga, kei a ia nei te wairua o nga atua tapu; i nga ra hoki o tou papa i kitea te marama, te mohio, me nga whakaaro nui i roto i a ia, he mea rite tonu ki nga whakaaro nui o nga atua, a meinga ana ia e tou papa, e Kingi Nepukaneha, ae ra, e tou papa, e te kingi, hei rangatira mo nga tohunga maori ratou ko nga kaititiro whetu, ko nga Karari, ko nga tohunga tuaahu:
12 As to because that a spirit - extraordinary and understanding and insight an interpreter of dreams and declaring of riddles and loosening of knots it was found in him in Daniel whom king the he made name his Belteshazzar now Daniel let him be summoned and interpretation the he will declare.
Na pai atu te wairua i kitea i roto i taua Raniera, i huaina nei e te kingi ko Peretehatara, te matau, te mohio, te whakaatu moe, te whakakite i nga kupu pakeke: tareka ana i a ia nga mea e mau ana. Na kia karangatia a Raniera, a mana e whakakit e te tikanga.
13 Then Daniel he was brought before king the [was] replying king the and [was] saying to Daniel (you *Q(k)*) he [are] Daniel who [is] one of [the] sons of exile the of Judah whom he brought king the father my from Judah.
Katahi ka kawea mai a Raniera ki te aroaro o te kingi. A ka korero te kingi, ka mea ki a Raniera, Ko taua Raniera ranei koe, no nga tamariki whakarau o Hura, i kawea mai nei e te kingi, e toku papa, i Hura?
14 And I have heard (concerning you *Q(k)*) that a spirit of gods [is] in you and illumination and insight and wisdom extraordinary it was found in you.
Kua rongo ahau ki a koe, kei roto i a koe te wairua o nga atua, a e kitea ana te marama i roto i a koe, te matauranga, me te mohio pai rawa.
15 And now they have been brought before me wise men the conjurers the that writing the this they will read aloud and interpretation its to make known to me and not [they were] able [the] interpretation of matter the to declare.
Na kua kawea mai nei nga tangata whakaaro nui, nga kaititiro whetu, ki toku aroaro, kia korerotia ai e ratou tenei tuhituhi, kia whakaaturia ai tona tikanga ki ahau: heoi kihai i taea e ratou te whakaatu te tikanga o taua mea.
16 And I I have heard (concerning you *Q(k)*) that (you are able *Q(k)*) interpretations to interpret and knots to loosen now if (you will be able *Q(k)*) writing the to read aloud and interpretation its to make known to me purple you will be clothed (and necklace the *Q(k)*) of gold [will be] on neck your and third the in kingdom the you will rule.
Kua rongo ia ahau ki a koe, ka taea e koe te whakaatu tikanga, a ka tareka i a koe nga mea e mau ana. Na ki te taea e koe te tuhituhi te korero, a ka whakaaturia tona tikanga ki ahau, he ngangana te kakahu mou, he mekameka koura ano tenei mo tou kaki, ko koe hoki hei rangatira tuatoru i te kingitanga.
17 Then [was] replying Daniel and [say] saying before king the gifts your for yourself let them be and rewards your to another give! nevertheless writing the I will read aloud to king the and interpretation the I will make known to him.
Katahi ka whakahoki a Raniera, ka mea ki te aroaro o te kingi, Mau au hakari, hoatu au utu ki tetahi atu; me korero ia e ahau te tuhituhi ki te kingi, me whakaatu te tikanga ki a ia.
18 (You *Q(k)*) king O God (Most High the *Q(k)*) kingdom the and greatness the and honor the and majesty the he gave to Nebuchadnezzar father your.
E te kingi, i homai e te Atua, e te Runga Rawa, te kingitanga ki tou papa, ki a Nepukaneha, me te nui, me te kororia, me te honore:
19 And from greatness the which he gave to him all peoples the nations the and languages the they were (trembling *Q(k)*) and fearing from before him whom he was pleased he was killing and whom he was pleased he was letting live and whom he was pleased he was lifting up and whom he was pleased he was bringing low.
A na taua nui, i homai ra e ia ki a ia, i wiri ai nga tangata katoa, nga iwi, nga reo, i wehi ai i tona aroaro: ko ana i pai ai whakamatea ana e ia, ko ana i pai ai whakaorangia ana e ia, ko ana i pai ai whakaturia ana e ia a, ko ana i pai ai wh akaititia iho e ia.
20 And as that it rose up heart his and spirit his it grew strong to act presumptuously he was deposed from [the] throne of kingdom his and honor the they removed from him.
Otiia ka whakakake tona ngakau, ka pakeke tona hinengaro i runga i te whakapehapeha, na kua whakataka ia i runga i tona torona kingi, whakakahoretia iho tona kororia.
21 And away from [the] sons of humankind he was chased and heart his - with animal[s] the (they made *Q(K)*) and [was] with wild donkeys the dwelling place his grass like oxen they fed him and from [the] dew of heavens the body his it became wet until that he knew that [was] having mastery God (Most High the *Q(k)*) over [the] kingdom of humankind and to whomever whom he will be pleased he will appoint (over it. *Q(K)*)
A aia atu ana ia i roto i nga tama a te tangata, i meinga ano tona ngakau kia rite ki o nga kararehe; i nga kaihe mohoao ano hoki tona nohoanga, he mea whangai ia ki te tarutaru, ano he kau; i maku ano tona tinana i te tomairangi o te rangi, a m ohio noa ia kei te kawana te Atua, te Runga Rawa, ki te kingitanga tangata, e whakaritea ana hoki e ia ma tana e pai ai.
22 (And you *Q(k)*) son his O Belshazzar not you have brought low heart your as to because that all this you knew.
Na ko koe, ko tana tama, e Perehatara, kihai i whakaititia e koe tou ngakau, me te mohio ano koe ki tenei katoa;
23 And against [the] lord of heavens the - you have lifted yourself up and vessels the of house his they have brought (before you and you and nobles your *Q(k)*) wives your and concubines your wine [are] drinking with them and [the] gods of silver and gold bronze iron wood and stone who not [are] seeing and not [are] hearing and not [are] knowing you have praised and God the who breath your [is] in hand his and all ways your [are] to him not you have glorified.
Heoi whakakake ana koe ki te Ariki o te rangi, kua oti ano nga oko o tona whare te kawe mai ki tou aroaro, hei oko inu waina, mau, ma au ariki, ma au wahine, ma au wahine iti; kua whakamoemiti ano koe ki nga atua, ki nga mea hiriwa, koura, parah i, rino, rakau, kohatu, e kore nei e kite, e rongo, e mohio: na, ko te Atua, kei tona ringa nei tou manawa, nana nei ou ara katoa, kihai ia i whakakororiatia e koe.
24 Then from before him it was sent out palm the of hand the and writing the this it was inscribed.
Katahi ka unga atu te wahi o te ringa i tona aroaro; na kua oti tenei mea te tuhituhi.
25 And this [is] writing the which it was inscribed mene mene teqel and pharsin.
Na ko te mea tenei i tuhituhia, MENE, MENE, TEKERE, UPARAHINI.
26 This [is] [the] interpretation of matter the mene he has numbered God kingdom your and he has finished it.
Ko te tikanga tenei o te mea: MENE; kua oti tou kingitanga te tatau e te Atua, mutu pu i a ia.
27 Teqel you have been weighed in scales the and you have been found lacking.
TEKERE; kua oti koe te pauna ki te pauna, a kua kitea tou koha.
28 Peres it has been broken in two kingdom your and it has been given to Medes and Persians.
PEREHE; kua oti tou kingitanga te wahi, kua hoatu ki nga Meri, ki nga Pahi.
29 Then - he said Belshazzar and they clothed Daniel purple (and necklace the *Q(k)*) of gold [was] on neck his and they made proclamation concerning him that he will be having mastery third the in kingdom the.
Katahi a Perehatara ka whakahau a whakakakahuria ana a Raniera ki te mea ngangana, whakanohoia ana he mekameka koura ki tona kaki, karangarangatia ana ia ko ia te rangatira tuatoru o te kingitanga.
30 On it on night the he was killed Belshazzar king the (Chaldeans the. *Q(k)*)
I taua po ano ka patua a Perehatara kingi o nga Karari.
31 And Darius (Median the *Q(K)*) he received kingdom the about a son of years sixty and two.
A riro ana te kingitanga i a Tariuha Meri: ko ona tau kei te ono tekau ma rua.
