< Daniel 1 >
1 In year three of [the] reign of Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah he came Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon Jerusalem and he laid siege on it.
Nan twazyèm ane a règn Jojakim, wa Juda a; Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te rive Jérusalem e te fè syèj sou li.
2 And he gave [the] Lord in hand his Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah and some of [the] end of [the] vessels of [the] house of God and he brought them [the] land of Shinar [the] house of god his and the vessels he brought [the] house of [the] treasury of god his.
Senyè a te livre Jojakim, wa Juda a, nan men li, ansanm ak kèk nan veso lakay Bondye yo. Epi Nebucadnetsar te pote yo nan peyi Schinear, kote lakay dye pa li a, e li te mennen veso yo antre nan trezò a dye li a.
3 And he said the king to Ashpenaz [the] chief of officials his to bring some of [the] people of Israel and some of [the] offspring of royalty and some of the nobles.
Alò, wa a te pase lòd a Aschpenaz, chèf sou ofisye pa l yo, pou mennen kèk nan fis Israël yo, ansanm ak kèk nan fanmi wayal la ak kèk nan prens yo:
4 Youths whom not [was] in them any (blemish *Q(K)*) and good of appearance and having insight in all wisdom and knowing knowledge and understanding knowledge and whom ability [was] in them to stand in [the] palace of the king and to teach them [the] writing and [the] tongue of [the] Chaldeans.
jennonm ki te san defo, ki te bo gason, ki te montre yo entèlijan nan tout kalite sajès, beni avèk bon konprann e ak kapasite pou disène, e ki te gen kapasite pou fè sèvis nan palè a wa a; pou l ta ka enstwi yo nan lèt ak langaj Kaldeyen yo.
5 And he assigned to them the king [the] matter of a day in day its some of [the] deli-caci[es] of the king and some of [the] wine of drink his and to bring up them years three and from [the] end their they will stand before the king.
Wa a te chwazi pou yo yon pòsyon manje ki te sòti nan meyè manje a wa a ak nan diven ke li te konn bwè. Anplis, li te fè lòd pou yo ta kapab fè enstriksyon lekòl pandan twazan, epi nan fen a twazan yo, yo te dwe antre nan sèvis pèsonèl a wa a.
6 And he was among them from [the] people of Judah Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah.
Alò, pami yo, soti nan fis a Juda yo, se te Daniel, Hanania, Mischaël, ak Azaria.
7 And he assigned to them [the] chief of the officials names and he assigned to Daniel Belteshazzar and to Hananiah Shadrach and to Mishael Meshach and to Azariah Abed-nego.
Answit, chèf nan linik yo te bay nouvo non a yo menm. Pou Daniel, li te bay non Beltschatsar, Hanania non a Schadrac, Mischaël non a Méschac e Azaria, non a Abed-Nego.
8 And he set Daniel on heart his that not he defiled himself with [the] delicaci[es] of the king and with [the] wine of drink his and he requested from [the] chief of the officials that not he will defile himself.
Men Daniel te pran desizyon nan panse li pou li pa t souye tèt li ak meyè manje a wa a, ni ak diven li te konn bwè a. Konsa, li te chache pèmisyon a chèf nan linik yo pou li pa ta souye tèt li.
9 And he gave God Daniel favor and compassion before [the] chief of the officials.
Alò, Bondye te bay Daniel favè ak gras devan zye a chèf ofisye yo.
10 And he said [the] chief of the officials to Daniel [am] fearing I master my the king who he has assigned food your and drink your that why? will he see faces your looking thin more than the youths who [are] about age your and you will endanger head my to the king.
Epi chèf nan linik yo te di a Daniel: “Mwen gen krent mèt mwen, Wa a, ki te bay lòd konsènan manje nou ak bwason nou. Paske poukisa li ta dwe wè figi nou nan yon eta pi mal ke lòt jennonm ki gen menm laj avèk nou yo? Alò, nou ta fè mwen peye pri tèt mwen bay wa a.”
11 And he said Daniel to the guardian whom he had assigned [the] chief of the officials over Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah.
Men Daniel te di a sipèvizè ke chèf nan linik yo te chwazi sou Daniel, Hanania, Mischaël, ak Azaria a,
12 Put to [the] test please servants your days ten so let people give to us some of the vegetables so we may eat and water so we may drink.
“Souple, teste sèvitè ou yo pandan di jou. Kite nou resevwa sèlman kèk legim pou manje ak dlo pou bwè.
13 And they may appear before you appearance our and [the] appearance of the youths who are eating [the] delicaci[es] of the king and just as you will see deal with servants your.
Epi konsa, kite aparans nou vin konpare ak aparans a jennonm k ap manje meyè manje a wa a; epi aji ak sèvitè ou yo selon sa ou wè a.”
14 And he listened to them to the thing this and he put to [the] test them days ten.
Konsa, li te koute yo nan bagay sa a, e te teste yo pandan di jou.
15 And from [the] end of days ten it appeared appearance their good and fat of flesh more than all the youths who were eating [the] delicaci[es] of the king.
Nan fen di jou yo, aparans yo te parèt pi bon, e yo te angrese plis ke tout jennonm ki t ap manje meyè manje a wa a.
16 And he was the guardian taking away delicaci[es] their and [the] wine of drink their and giving to them vegetables.
Akoz sa, sipèvizè a te kontinye retire meyè manje sa yo, ak diven yo te dwe pou bwè, e te kontinye bay yo legim yo.
17 And the youths these [the] four of them he gave to them God knowledge and insight in all writing and wisdom and Daniel he understood every vision and dreams.
Konsènan kat jennonm sila yo Bondye te bay yo konesans ak entèlijans nan tout pati etid ak sajès yo. Epi Daniel te gen konprann nan tout kalite vizyon ak rèv.
18 And from [the] end of the days which he had said the king to bring them and he brought them [the] chief of the officials before Nebuchadnezzar.
Konsa, nan fen jou wa a te etabli pou prezante yo a, linik a wa a te fè yo parèt devan Nebucadnetsar.
19 And he spoke with them the king and not he was found any of all of them like Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah and they stood before the king.
Wa a te pale ak yo e pami yo tout, pa t gen youn ki te konpare ak Daniel, Hanania, Mischaël, ak Azaria. Akoz sa, yo te antre nan sèvis pèsonèl a wa a.
20 And every matter of wisdom of understanding which he sought from them the king and he found them ten hands above all the soothsayer-priests the conjurers who [were] in all kingdom his.
Pou chak sikonstans ke wa a te konsilte yo pou sajès ak bon konprann, li te twouve yo dis fwa pi bon ke tout majisyen ak mèt zetwal ki te nan tout wayòm li a.
21 And he was Daniel until year one of Cyrus the king.
Epi Daniel te kontinye jis rive nan premye ane Cyrus, wa a.
