Daniel 3
1 Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose hight [was] sixty cubits, [and] the breadth of it six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.
| ثُمَّ صَنَعَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ تِمْثَالاً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، ارْتِفَاعُهُ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ ثَلاثِينَ مِتْراً)، وَعَرْضُهُ سِتُّ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَمْتَارٍ)، وَنَصَبَهُ فِي سَهْلِ دُورَا فِي وِلايَةِ بَابِلَ. | ١ |
2 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to convene the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sherifs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
| وَاسْتَدْعَى نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ الْمَلِكُ جَمِيعَ أَقْطَابِ الدَّوْلَةِ وَوُلاتِهَا وَحُكَّامِهَا وَقُضَاتِهَا وَأُمَنَاءِ خَزَائِنِهَا وَمُسْتَشَارِيهَا، وَسَائِرَ كِبَارِ مُوَظَّفِي الأَقَالِيمِ، لِيَأْتُوا لِلاشْتِرَاكِ فِي تَدْشِينِ التِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ. | ٢ |
3 Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sherifs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were assembled to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
| فَاجْتَمَعَ الأَقْطَابُ وَالْحُكَّامُ وَالْقُضَاةُ وَأُمَنَاءُ الْخَزَائِنِ وَالْمُسْتَشَارُونَ وَسَائِرُ عُظَمَاءِ الأَقَالِيمِ لِتَدْشِينِ التِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ وَمَثَلُوا أَمَامَهُ. | ٣ |
4 Then a herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,
| وَصَاحَ مُنَادٍ بِصَوْتٍ عَالٍ: «أَيُّهَا الشُّعُوبُ وَالأُمَمُ مِنْ كُلِّ لُغَةٍ وَلِسَانٍ، قَدْ صَدَرَ لَكُمْ أَمْرٌ | ٤ |
5 [That] at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up.
| أَنَّكُمْ حِينَ تَسْمَعُونَ أَصْوَاتَ بُوقِ الْقَرْنِ وَالنَّايِ وَالْعُودِ وَالرَّبَابِ وَالْقِيثَارَةِ الْمُثَلَّثَةِ وَالْمِزْمَارِ وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ الْمُوسِيقَى، تَنْحَنُونَ وَتَسْجُدُونَ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ الْمَلِكُ. | ٥ |
6 And whoever shall not fall down and worship shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
| وَكُلُّ مَنْ لَا يَنْحَنِي وَيَسْجُدُ، يُلْقَى فَوْراً فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ». | ٦ |
7 Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down [and] worshiped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
| لِهَذَا حَالَمَا سَمِعَتِ الشُّعُوبُ الْحَاضِرَةُ أَصْوَاتَ تِلْكَ الالاتِ الْمُوسِيقِيَّةِ الْمُخْتَلِفَةِ، انْحَنَتْ وَسَجَدَتْ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الْمَنْصُوبِ. | ٧ |
8 Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews.
| غَيْرَ أَنَّ بَعْضاً مِنْ رِجَالِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ تَقَدَّمُوا إِلَى الْمَلِكِ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ وَاشْتَكَوْا عَلَى الْيَهُودِ | ٨ |
9 They spoke and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever.
| قَائِلِينَ: «لِتَعِشْ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٩ |
10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image:
| لَقَدْ أَصْدَرْتَ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ أَمْراً أَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ أَصْوَاتَ بُوقِ الْقَرْنِ وَالنَّايِ وَالْعُودِ وَالرَّبَابِ وَالْقِيثَارَةِ الْمُثَلَّثَةِ وَالْمِزْمَارِ، وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ الْمُوسِيقَى، يَنْحَنِي وَيَسْجُدُ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ. | ١٠ |
11 And whoever shall not fall down and worship, [that] he shall be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
| وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَأْبَى يُلْقَى فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ. | ١١ |
12 There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
| وَهَا هُنَا رِجَالٌ يَهُودٌ مِمَّنْ وَلَّيْتَهُمْ عَلَى أَعْمَالِ إِقْلِيمِ بَابِلَ، هُمْ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو لَمْ يَأْبَهُوا لَكَ، وَلَمْ يَعْبُدُوا آلِهَتَكَ، وَلَمْ يَسْجُدُوا لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتَهُ». | ١٢ |
13 Then Nebuchadnezzar in [his] rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then they brought these men before the king.
| حِينَئِذٍ أَمَرَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ بِاحْتِدَامِ غَضَبٍ وَغَيْظٍ أَنْ يُؤْتَى بِشَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو فَأَحْضَرُوهُمْ أَمَامَ الْمَلِكِ. | ١٣ |
14 Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said to them, [Is it] true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, do ye not serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?
| وَقَالَ لَهُمْ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ: «أَحَقّاً يَا شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو أَنَّكُمْ لَا تَعْبُدُونَ آلِهَتِي وَلا تَسْجُدُونَ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتُهُ؟ | ١٤ |
15 Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; [well]: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who [is] that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?
| وَالآنَ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُسْتَعِدِّينَ لَدَى سَمَاعِكُمْ صَوْتَ الالاتِ الْمُوسِيقِيَّةِ الْمُخْتَلِفَةِ أَنْ تَنْحَنُوا وَتَسْجُدُوا لِلتِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي صَنَعْتُهُ، أَعْفُو عَنْكُمْ. وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَبَيْتُمُ السُّجُودَ، تُطْرَحُونَ فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. وَأَيُّ إِلَهٍ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُنْقِذَكُمْ عِنْدَئِذٍ مِنْ يَدَيَّ؟» | ١٥ |
16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we [are] not careful to answer thee in this matter.
| فَأَجَابَهُ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو: «لا دَاعِيَ لأَنْ نُجِيبَكَ عَنْ هَذَا الشَّأْنِ | ١٦ |
17 If it is [so], our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver [us] out of thy hand, O king.
| لأَنَّ إِلَهَنَا الَّذِي نَعْبُدُهُ قَادِرٌ أَنْ يُنَجِّيَنَا مِنْ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ، وَأَنْ يُنْقِذَنَا مِنْ يَدِكَ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ. | ١٧ |
18 But if not, be it known to thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
| وَحَتَّى إِنْ لَمْ يُنْقِذْنَا، فَاعْلَمْ يَقِيناً أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ أَنَّنَا لَا نَعْبُدُ آلِهَتَكَ، وَلا نَسْجُدُ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتَهُ». | ١٨ |
19 Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: [therefore] he spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was wont to be heated.
| فَاسْتَشَاطَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ حَنَقاً وَاكْفَهَرَّ وَجْهُهُ غَضَباً عَلَى شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، وَأَمَرَ أَنْ يُضْرِمُوا الأَتُونَ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ عَمَّا كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْعَادَةُ. | ١٩ |
20 And he commanded the most mighty men that [were] in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, [and] to cast [them] into the burning fiery furnace.
| وَطَلَبَ مِنْ بَعْضِ رِجَالِ جَيْشِهِ الشُّجْعَانِ أَنْ يُوْثِقُوا شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو وَيَطْرَحُوهُمْ فِي أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢٠ |
21 Then these men were bound in their coats, their hose, and their hats, and their [other] garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
| حِينَئِذٍ أُوْثِقَ الرِّجَالُ بِمَا عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ ثِيَابٍ وَسَرَاوِيلَ وَأَقْمِصَةٍ وَأَرْدِيَةٍ، وَطُرِحُوا فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢١ |
22 Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire killed those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.
| وَإِذْ كَانَ أَمْرُ الْمَلِكِ صَارِماً وَالأَتُونُ قَدْ أُضْرِمَ أَشَدَّ إِضْرَامٍ، فَإِنَّ لَهِيبَ النَّارِ أَحْرَقَ الرِّجَالَ الَّذِينَ حَمَلُوا شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، وَطَرَحُوهُمْ فِي النَّارِ. | ٢٢ |
23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
| فَسَقَطَ هَؤُلاءِ الرِّجَالُ الثَّلاثَةُ مُوْثَقِينَ وَسَطَ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢٣ |
24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, [and] spoke, and said to his counselors, Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said to the king, True, O king.
| وَمَا لَبِثَتِ الْحَيْرَةُ أَنِ اعْتَرَتْ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ، فَهَبَّ مُسْرِعاً وَقَالَ لِمُشِيرِيهِ: «أَلَمْ نَطْرَحْ ثَلاثَةَ رِجَالٍ مُوْثَقِينَ فِي وَسَطِ النَّارِ؟» فَأَجَابُوا: «صَحِيحٌ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ». | ٢٤ |
25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt: and the form of the fourth is like the son of God.
| فَقَالَ: «إِنِّي أَرَى أَرْبَعَةَ رِجَالٍ طَلِيقِينَ يَتَمَشَّوْنَ فِي وَسَطِ النَّارِ، لَمْ يَنَلْهُمْ أَذىً، وَمَنْظَرُ الرَّابِعِ شَبِيهٌ بِابْنِ الآلِهَةِ». | ٢٥ |
26 Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, [and] spoke, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come [hither]. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, came forth from the midst of the fire.
| ثُمَّ دَنَا نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ مِنْ بَابِ الأَتُونِ الْمُتَّقِدِ بِالنَّارِ وَهَتَفَ: «يَا شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو يَا عَبِيدَ اللهِ الْعَلِيِّ، اخْرُجُوا وَتَعَالَوْا». فَخَرَجَ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو مِنْ وَسَطِ النَّارِ. | ٢٦ |
27 And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king's counselors, being assembled, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was a hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor had the smell of fire passed upon them.
| فَأَحَاطَ الأَقْطَابُ وَالْوُلاةُ وَالْحُكَّامُ وَعُظَمَاءُ الدَّوْلَةِ بِهِمْ، فَوَجَدُوا أَنَّ النَّارَ لَمْ تُؤْذِ أَجْسَامَهُمْ، وَلَمْ تَحْتَرِقْ شَعْرَةٌ مِنْ رُؤُوسِهِمْ، وَلَمْ تَشِطْ ثِيَابُهُمْ، وَلَمْ تَعْلَقْ بِهِمْ رَائِحَةُ النَّارِ. | ٢٧ |
28 [Then] Nebuchadnezzar spoke, and said, Blessed [be] the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.
| فَقَالَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ: «تَبَارَكَ إِلَهُ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ مَلاكَهُ وَأَنْقَذَ عَبِيدَهُ الَّذِينَ اتَّكَلُوا عَلَيْهِ وَخَالَفُوا أَمْرَ الْمَلِكِ وَبَذَلُوا أَجْسَادَهُمْ كَيْ لا يَعْبُدُوا أَوْ يَسْجُدُوا لإِلَهٍ غَيْرِ إِلَهِهِمْ. | ٢٨ |
29 Therefore I make a decree, that every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other god that can deliver after this sort.
| لِهَذَا قَدْ صَدَرَ مِنِّي أَمْرٌ أَنَّ أَيَّ شَعْبٍ أَوْ أُمَّةٍ أَوْ قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَيِّ لِسَانٍ يَذُمُّونَ إِلَهَ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، يُمَزَّقُونَ إِرْباً إِرْباً، وَتُصْبِحُ بُيُوتُهُمْ أَنْقَاضاً، إِذْ لَيْسَ هُنَاكَ إِلَهٌ آخَرُ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُنَجِّيَ مِثْلَهُ». | ٢٩ |
30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, in the province of Babylon.
| ثُمَّ رَفَعَ الْمَلِكُ مِنْ شَأْنِ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو فِي وِلايَةِ بَابِلَ. | ٣٠ |
