Bere a nsa no ama Belsasar ani agye no, ɔhyɛe sɛ, wɔmfa sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ nkuruwa a nʼagya Nebukadnessar tase fii Yerusalem asɔredan mu no mmra, sɛnea ɔne ne mpanyimfo, ne yerenom ne ne mpenanom bɛnom mu nsa.
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.
Enti ɔde saa sikakɔkɔɔ nkuruwa a wɔtase fii Onyankopɔn asɔredan a ɛwɔ Yerusalem mu no bae, na ɔhene no ne ne mpanyimfo, ne yerenom ne ne mpenanom nom mu nsa.
4 They drank wine the and they praised [the] gods of gold and silver bronze iron wood and stone.
Wɔrenom nsa no, wɔkamfoo wɔn ahoni a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, kɔbere, dade, dua ne abo ayɛ no.

Amono mu hɔ no ara, wohui sɛ, onipa nsateaa rekyerɛw ɔhene ahemfi fasu no a ɛbɛn kaneadua no ho. Ɔhene no hwɛɛ nsa a ɛrekyerɛw no,
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.
na ehu maa nʼanim danee. Sɛnea ɔbɔɔ hu no maa ne kotodwe keka bobɔɔ mu, na ne nan mu yɛɛ mmrɛw.

Ɔhene no teɛɛ mu frɛɛ se wɔmfa pɛadeahufo, Kaldeafo ne ntafowayifo mmra nʼanim. Ɔka kyerɛɛ saa Babilonia anyansafo yi se, “Obiara a obetumi akenkan nkyerɛw yi, akyerɛ me ase no, wobefura no ɔtamkɔkɔɔ a ɛyɛ adehye abasobɔde, na wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ntweaban agu ne kɔn mu. Ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ ɔman sodifo a ɔto so abiɛsa wɔ ahemman yi mu.”
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.
Nanso ɔhene no anyansafo no bae no, wɔn mu biara antumi ankenkan nkyerɛw no, ankyerɛ ase amma ɔhene no.
9 Then king the Belshazzar exceedingly [was] alarmed and brightness his [were] changing on him and nobles his [were] dumbfounded.
Enti ɛmaa ɔhene no ho yeraw no yiye, na nʼanim sesae. Nʼabirɛmpɔn nso ho yeraw wɔn.
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 bere a Ɔhemmea no tee ɔhene ne ne mpanyimfo nteɛteɛmu no, ɔyɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ apontodan mu hɔ. Ɔka kyerɛɛ Belsasar se, “Nana nkwa so! Nana, nsuro na mma wʼanim nsesa!
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.
Ɔbarima bi wɔ wʼahenni mu ha a ɔwɔ anyame kronkron honhom wɔ ne mu. Wʼagya Nebukadnessar adedi mu no, wohuu sɛ, saa ɔbarima yi wɔ ntease nhumu ne nyansa te sɛ anyame no. Wʼagya Nebukadnessar sii no panyin wɔ nkonyaayifo, pɛadeahufo, Kaldeafo ne ntafowayifo so wɔ Babilonia.
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.
Saa ɔbarima Daniel yi a ɔhene too no din Beltesasar yi adwene mu dɔ, na Onyankopɔn ho nimdeɛ ne ntease ahyɛ no ma. Otumi kyerɛ dae ne kasanyansa ase, na nsɛm a ɛkyere adwene no, ɔsan mu. Momfrɛ Daniel na ɔbɛkyerɛ mo nkyerɛw no ase.”
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.
Enti wɔkɔfaa Daniel baa ɔhene anim. Ɔhene no bisaa no se, “Wone Daniel no a mʼagya Nebukadnessar faa wo nnommum de wo fii Yuda bae no?
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.
Mate wo nka sɛ, wowɔ anyame honhom wɔ wo mu, na ntease, nhumu ne nyansa ahyɛ wo ma.
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.
Wɔde anyansafo ne pɛadeahufo baa mʼanim sɛ wɔbɛkenkan nkyerɛw a egu ɔfasu yi ho yi na wɔnkyerɛ me ase, nanso wɔantumi.
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.
Na mate wo nka sɛ wutumi kyerɛ nsɛm ase; na wosan nsɛm a ɛkyere adwene mu. Na sɛ wutumi kenkan nkyerɛw a ɛwɔ ɔfasu yi ho na wokyerɛ me ase a, wobefura wo ɔtamkɔkɔɔ a ɛyɛ adehye abasobɔde, na wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ntweaban begu wo kɔn mu. Na wobɛyɛ ɔman sodifo a ɔto so abiɛsa wɔ ahemman yi mu.”
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.
Daniel buaa ɔhene no se, “Nana, mesrɛ, ma wʼakyɛde no ntena hɔ na fa wʼabasobɔde no ma obi foforo. Nanso, Nana, mɛkenkan nkyerɛw no, na makyerɛ wo ase.
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.
“Nana, Ɔsorosoro Nyankopɔn maa wʼagya Nebukadnessar kɛseyɛ, anuonyam ne nidi.
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.
Ɔyɛɛ no kɛse ara kosii sɛ, nnipa ahorow nyinaa, aman nyinaa ne kasa biara du nʼanim a, wɔn ho popo biribiribiri. Okunkum wɔn a ɔpɛ sɛ okunkum wɔn, na ogyaa wɔn a ɔpɛ sɛ ogyaa wɔn. Ɔhyɛɛ wɔn a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ wɔn anuonyam no anuonyam, na wɔn a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔbrɛ wɔn ase no, ɔbrɛɛ wɔn ase.
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.
Nanso ahomaso maa ne koma ne nʼadwene yɛɛ den no, woyii no fii nʼahengua so, sii no fam, gyee nʼanuonyam no.
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)*)
Wɔpam no fii nnipa mu. Wɔmaa no aboa adwene, na ɔne wuram mmoa tenae. Ɔwee sare te sɛ nantwi, na ɔsoro bosu fɔw no fɔkyee kosii sɛ, afei ohui sɛ, sɛɛ Ɔsorosoro Nyankopɔn na odi wiase ahemman nyinaa so, na ɔno ara nso na oyi obi a ɔpɛ ma odi so.
22 (And you *Q(k)*) son his O Belshazzar not you have brought low heart your as to because that all this you knew.
“Nanso wo, ne ba Belsasar, wunim eyinom nyinaa, nanso woammrɛ wo ho ase.
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.
Woama wo ho so atia Ɔsoro Awurade mmom. Woafa saa nkuruwa yi a esisi wʼanim a wɔfa fii nʼasɔredan mu no. Wo ne wʼatitiriw ne wo yerenom ne wo mpenanom anom mu nsa, bere a morekamfo dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, kɔbere, dade, dua ne ɔbo anyame a wonhu ade, na wɔnnte asɛm, na wonnim hwee koraa no. Na moamfa nidi amma Onyankopɔn a okura mo nkwa na odi mo nkrabea so no.
24 Then from before him it was sent out palm the of hand the and writing the this it was inscribed.
Ne saa nti, Onyankopɔn asoma nsa yi sɛ, ɛmmɛkyerɛw nkra yi.
25 And this [is] writing the which it was inscribed mene mene teqel and pharsin.
“Nkra a, ɛkyerɛwee ni: Mene, Mene, Tekel, Parsin.
26 This [is] [the] interpretation of matter the mene he has numbered God kingdom your and he has finished it.
“Saa nsɛm yi nkyerɛase ni: “‘Mene’ nkyerɛase ne wɔakan. Onyankopɔn akan wʼahenni nna a aka na watwa so de aba nʼawiei.
27 Teqel you have been weighed in scales the and you have been found lacking.
“‘Tekel’ nkyerɛase ne: wɔakari. Wɔakari wo wɔ nsania so, nanso woantumi sɔhwɛ no.
28 Peres it has been broken in two kingdom your and it has been given to Medes and Persians.
“‘Parsin’ nkyerɛase ne: wɔakyekyɛ mu. Wɔakyekyɛ wʼahenni mu ama Mediafo ne Persiafo.”
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.
Afei Belsasar ma wofuraa Daniel ɔtamkɔkɔɔ a ɛyɛ adehye abasobɔde, de sikakɔkɔɔ ntweaban guu ne kɔn mu. Wɔsoaa no sɛ, ɔman sodifo a ɔto so abiɛsa wɔ ahemman no mu.
30 On it on night the he was killed Belshazzar king the (Chaldeans the. *Q(k)*)
Saa anadwo no ara, wokum Babiloniahene Belsasar.
31 And Darius (Median the *Q(K)*) he received kingdom the about a son of years sixty and two.
Na Dario a ofi Mede faa ahenni no, na wadi mfirihyia aduosia abien.
