1 It seemed good before Darius and he appointed over kingdom the satraps the one hundred and twenty who they will be over all kingdom the.
Kunamukomera Dariyo kusankha akalonga 120 kuti alamulire mu ufumu wonse,
2 And above more than them overseers three whom Daniel [was] one of them whom they will be satraps the these giving to them report the and king the not he will be suffering injury.
ndikusankha nduna zazikulu zitatu kuti ziwayangʼanire ndipo imodzi mwa ndunazo anali Danieli. Akalongawo amayangʼaniridwa ndi nduna zazikuluzo kuti zinthu za mfumu zisawonongeke.
3 Then Daniel this he was distinguishing himself over overseers the and satraps the as to because that a spirit extraordinary [was] in him and king the [was] planning to appoint him over all kingdom the.
Tsono Danieli anadzionetsa kuti akhoza kugwira ntchito bwino kopambana nduna zinzake chifukwa anali wanzeru kwambiri. Ndiye mfumu inaganiza zomuyika kuti akhale woyangʼanira ufumu wonse.
4 Then overseers the and satraps the they were seeking an occasion to find to Daniel from [the] side of kingdom the and any occasion and corruption not [they were] able to find as to because that [was] trustworthy he and any negligence and corruption not it was found concerning him.
Chifukwa cha ichi, anzake ndi akalonga anayesa kupeza zifukwa zomutsutsira Danieli pa kayendetsedwe ka ntchito za dzikolo, koma sanapeze cholakwa chilichonse. Iwo sanapeze chinyengo mwa iye, chifukwa anali wokhulupirika ndipo sankachita chinyengo kapena kutayirira ntchito.
5 Then men the these [were] saying that not we will find to Daniel this any occasion except we have found concerning him in [the] law of God his.
Pomaliza, anthu awa ananena kuti, “Sitidzapeza cholakwa chilichonse chomutsutsira Danieli kupatula chokhacho chimene chikhudza chipembedzo cha Mulungu wake.”
6 Then overseers the and satraps the these they came as a crowd to king the and as follows [they were] saying to him O Darius king the for ever live!
Choncho akalonga ndi nduna pamodzi anapita kwa mfumu ndipo anati: “Inu mfumu Dariyo, mukhale ndi moyo wautali!
7 They took counsel together all - [the] overseers of kingdom the prefects the and satraps the counselors the and governors the to establish [the] statute of king the and to make stringent a prohibition that every [one] who he will ask a petition from any god and person until days thirty except from you king O he will be thrown to [the] den of lions the.
Nduna zoyendetsa ufumu wanu, aphungu, akalonga ndi abwanamkubwa tonse tagwirizana kuti inu mfumu mukhazikitse lamulo ndi kulisindikiza kuti aliyense amene apemphera kwa mulungu wina kapena kwa munthu kupatula kwa inu mfumu, pa masiku makumi atatu otsatirawa, adzaponyedwa mʼdzenje la mikango.
8 Now king O you will establish prohibition the so you may sign writing the which not to change according to [the] law of [the] Medes and [the] Persians which not it will pass away.
Tsopano inu mfumu khazikitsani lamulo limeneli ndipo musindikizepo dzina lanu kuti lisasinthike monga mwa malamulo a Amedi ndi Aperezi, amene sasinthidwa.”
9 As to because this king the Darius he signed writing the and prohibition the.
Choncho mfumu Dariyo anasindikizapo dzina lake pa lamuloli.
10 And Daniel as that he knew that it was signed writing the he went in to house his and windows [were] opened to it in upper room his facing Jerusalem and times three in day the he - [was] kneeling on knees his and [was] praying and [was] praising before God his as to because that he was doing from [the] former time of this.
Danieli atamva kuti lamulo lasindikizidwa, anapita ku nyumba kwake nalowa mʼchipinda chapamwamba chimene mazenera ake anali otsekula kuloza ku Yerusalemu. Katatu pa tsiku iye ankagwada pansi pa mawondo ndipo amapemphera, kuyamika Mulungu wake, monga momwe ankachitira kale.
11 Then men the these they came as a crowd and they found Daniel asking and imploring favor before God his.
Ndipo anthu awa anapita pamodzi ndi kukapeza Danieli akupemphera ndi kupempha Mulungu wake kuti amuthandize.
12 Then they approached and [were] saying before king the concerning [the] prohibition of king the ¿ not a prohibition did you sign that every person who he will ask from any god and person until days thirty except from you king O he will be thrown to [the] den of lions the [was] replying king the and saying [is] certain word the according to [the] law of [the] Medes and [the] Persians which not it will pass away.
Kotero iwo anapita kwa mfumu ndipo anayankhula naye za lamulo lake kuti, “Kodi simunasindikize lamulo lakuti pa masiku makumi atatu otsatirawa aliyense amene apemphera kwa mulungu wina aliyense kapena kwa munthu kupatula kwa inu mfumu, adzaponyedwa mʼdzenje la mikango?” Mfumu inayankha kuti, “Lamulo lilipobe monga mwa malamulo a Amedi ndi Aperezi, amene sangathe kusinthika.”
13 Then they replied and [were] saying before king the that Daniel who [is] one of [the] sons of exile the of Judah not he has set (to you *Q(k)*) king O discretion and to prohibition the which you signed and times three in day the [he is] asking petition his.
Kenaka iwo anati kwa mfumu, “Danieli, amene ndi mmodzi mwa akapolo ochokera ku Yuda, sakulabadira inu mfumu, kapena lamulo limene munasindikizapo dzina lanu lija. Iye akupempherabe katatu pa tsiku.”
14 Then king the as that word the he heard exceedingly it was displeasing to him and concerning Daniel he set mind to deliver him and until [the] goings in of sun the he was striving to rescue him.
Mfumu itamva izi, inavutika kwambiri mu mtima mwake. Iyo inayesa kupeza njira yopulumutsira Danieli. Iyo inachita chotheka chilichonse kufikira kulowa kwa dzuwa kuti imupulumutse.
15 Then men the these they came as a crowd to king the and [were] saying to king the know king O that [the] law of [the] Medes and [the] Persians that any prohibition and statute which king the he will establish not to change.
Ndipo anthuwo anapita pamodzi kwa mfumu ndipo anati kwa iye, “Kumbukirani, inu mfumu kuti monga mwa lamulo la Amedi ndi Aperezi, palibe chimene mfumu inalamulira kapena kukhazikitsa chimasinthidwa.”
16 Then king the he said and they brought Daniel and they threw [him] to den the of lions the [was] replying king the and [was] saying to Daniel God your whom (you *Q(k)*) [are] paying reverence to him in continuance he may he deliver you.
Choncho mfumu inalamula, ndipo anabwera naye Danieli ndi kukamuponya mʼdzenje la mikango. Mfumu inati kwa Danieli, “Mulungu wako amene umutumikira nthawi zonse, akupulumutse!”
17 And it was brought a stone one and it was set over [the] mouth of den the and he sealed it king the with signet-ring his and with [the] signet-rings of nobles his that not it will change anything with Daniel.
Anatenga mwala natseka pa khoma pa dzenje la mikango, ndipo mfumu inadindapo chizindikiro chake ndi cha nduna zake kuti wina asasinthepo kanthu pa za Danieli.
18 Then he went king the to palace his and he passed [the] night fasting and thrusting [women] not he brought in before him and sleep his it fled on him.
Kenaka mfumu inabwerera ku nyumba yake ndipo inakhala usiku wonse osadya kanthu, osalola chosangalatsa chilichonse. Ndipo sinagone tulo.
19 Then king the at dawn he arose at daylight the and in haste to den the of lions the he went.
Mʼbandakucha, mfumu inanyamuka ndi kufulumira kupita ku dzenje la mikango lija.
20 And just as approached he to den the to Daniel with a voice pained he cried out [was] replying king the and [was] saying to Daniel O Daniel [the] servant of God the living God your whom (you *Q(k)*) [are] paying reverence to him in continuance ¿ was he able to deliver you from lions the.
Itayandikira pa dzenjelo, inayitana Danieli moonetsa nkhawa, “Danieli, mtumiki wa Mulungu wa moyo! Kodi Mulungu wako, amene umutumikira nthawi zonse, wakulanditsa ku mikango?”
21 Then Daniel with king the he spoke king O for ever live!
Danieli anayankha kuti, “Inu mfumu mukhale ndi moyo wautali!
22 God my he sent angel his and he closed [the] mouth of lions the and not they harmed me as to because that before him innocence it was found to me and also (before you *Q(k)*) king O a hurtful act not I have done.
Mulungu wanga anatumiza mngelo wake, ndipo anatseka pakamwa pa mikango. Iyo sinandivulaze chifukwa Mulungu anaona kuti ndine wosalakwa ndi kutinso sindinakulakwireni inu mfumu.”
23 Then king the exceedingly it was good to him and Daniel he said to take up from den the and he was taken up Daniel from den the and any hurt not it was found on him that he had trusted in God his.
Mfumu inali ndi chimwemwe chopambana ndipo inalamulira kuti amutulutse Danieli mʼdzenjemo. Ndipo atamutulutsa Danieli mʼdzenjemo, sanapezeke ndi chilonda chilichonse pa thupi lake, chifukwa iye anadalira Mulungu wake.
24 And he said king the and they brought men the these who they had eaten pieces his of Daniel and to [the] den of lions the they threw they sons their and wives their and not they reached to [the] bottom of den the until that they assaulted them lions the and all bones their they shattered.
Mwa lamulo la mfumu, anthu onse amene ananeneza Danieli aja anagwidwa ndi kukaponyedwa mʼdzenje la mikango, pamodzi ndi akazi awo ndi ana awo. Ndipo asanafike pansi pa dzenjelo, mikango inawawakha ndi mphamvu ndi kuteketa mafupa awo onse.
25 Then Darius king the he wrote to all peoples the nations the and languages the which ([were] dwelling *Q(k)*) in all earth the peace your may it increase.
Kenaka mfumu Dariyo inalembera anthu a mitundu yonse, ndi anthu a ziyankhulo zosiyanasiyana a mʼdziko lonse kuti, “Mtendere uchuluke pakati panu!
26 From before me it is made a decree that - in all [the] dominion of kingdom my they will be (trembling *Q(k)*) and fearing from before God his of Daniel that he - [is] God the living and enduring for ever and kingdom his which not it will be destroyed and dominion his [is] to end the.
“Ndikukhazikitsa lamulo kuti paliponse mʼdziko langa anthu ayenera kuopa ndi kuchitira ulemu Mulungu wa Danieli.
27 [he is] delivering And [he is] rescuing and [he is] doing signs and wonders in heavens the and on earth the who he has delivered Daniel from [the] hand of lions the.
Iye amalanditsa ndipo amapulumutsa,
