< Daniel 5 >
1 Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
Belsazara mpanjaka nanao fanasana lehibe ho an’ ny mpanolo-tsainy arivo lahy, ary teo anatrehan’ ireny no nisotroany divay.
2 Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which [was] in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink in them.
Nony efa nisotro divay Belsazara, dia nasainy nalaina ny fanaka volamena sy volafotsy izay nalain’ i Nebokadnezara rainy avy tao amin’ ny tempoly tany Jerosalema, mba hisotroan’ ny mpanjaka sy ny mpanolotsainy sy ny vadiny mbamin’ ny vaditsindranony.
3 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which [was] at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them.
Dia nentiny ny fanaka volamena izay nalaina avy teo amin’ ny tempolin’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitra tany Jerosalema, ary ny mpanjaka sy ny mpanolo-tsainy sy ny vadiny mbamin’ ny vaditsindranony nisotro taminy.
4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
Eny, nisotro divay izy sady nankalaza ny andriamanitra volamena sy volafotsy sy varahina sy vy sy hazo ary vato.
5 In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
Tamin’ izay dia nisy rantsan-tànan’ olona niseho ka nanoratra tandrifin’ ny jiro tamin’ ny lalotra sokay teo amin’ ny rindrin’ ny lapan’ ny mpanjaka; ary ny mpanjaka nahita ilay rantsan-tanana nanoratra.
6 Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.
Dia nivaloarika ny tarehin’ ny mpanjaka, ary naharaiki-tahotra azy ny eritreriny, ka dia nivahavaha ny valahany, sady niady ny lohaliny.
7 The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the sooth-sayers. [And] the king spoke and said to the wise [men] of Babylon, Whoever shall read this writing, and show me the interpretation of it, shall be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Dia niantso mafy ny mpanjaka hampiditra ny mpisikidy sy ny Kaldeana ary ny mpanandro. Ary ny mpanjaka niteny ka nanao tamin’ ny olon-kendrin’ i Babylona hoe: Na zovy na zovy no mahavaky io soratra io sady milaza ny heviny amiko dia hampiakanjoina volomparasy, sy hasiana rojo volamena ny vozony, ary ho isan’ ny mpanapaka telo lahy amin’ ny fanjakana izy.
8 Then came in all the king's wise [men]: but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation of it.
Dia niditra avokoa ny olon-kendrin’ ny mpanjaka, nefa tsy nisy nahavaky ny soratra na nampahalala ny mpanjaka ny heviny.
9 Then was the king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were astonished.
Dia natahotra indrindra Belsazara mpanjaka, ka nivaloarika ny tarehiny, ary vaka terỳ ny mpanolo-tsainy.
10 [Now] the queen by reason of the words of the king and his lords came into the banquet house: [and] the queen spoke and said, O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed:
Ary ny renin’ ny mpanjaka niditra tao amin’ ny trano fanasana noho ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka sy ny mpanolo-tsainy; dia niteny ny renin’ ny mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Ry mpanjaka ô, ho velona mandrakizay anie ianao, aoka tsy haharaiki-tahotra anao ny eritreritrao, na hivaloarika ny tarehinao.
11 There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, [I say], thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, [and] sooth-sayers;
Misy lehilahy ato amin’ ny fanjakanao izay manana fanahin’ ireo andriamanitra masìna ao anatiny; ary fony fahavelon-drainao dia hita fa nisy fahazavan-tsaina sy fahalalana ary fahendrena tao aminy tahaka ny fahendren’ ireo andriamanitra; ka nataon’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka rainao, dia ny mpanjaka rainao, hoy izaho, ho lehiben’ ny ombiasy sy ny mpisikidy sy ny Kaldeana ary ny mpanandro izy;
12 Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, the interpreting of dreams, and showing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will show the interpretation.
fa fanahy hendry sy fahalalana sy saina ary fahaiza-milaza nofy sy fanambarana teny sarotra sy fampisehoana hevitra miafina no hita tao amin’ izany Daniela izany, izay nomen’ ny mpanjaka anarana hoe Beltesazara, koa aoka hantsoina Daniela, fa holazainy ny hevitry ny teny.
13 Then was Daniel brought in before the king. [And] the king spoke and said to Daniel, [Art] thou that Daniel, who [art] of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judea?
Dia nampidirina teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka Daniela. Ary ny mpanjaka niteny ka nanao tamin’ i Daniela hoe: Hianao mantsy no Daniela, ilay isan’ ny babo avy amin’ ny taranak’ i Joda, izay nentin’ ny mpanjaka raiko avy tany Joda.
14 I have even heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods [is] in thee, and [that] light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.
Efa reko ny aminao, fa ianao manana fanahin’ ireo andriamanitra sady misy fahazavan-tsaina sy fahalalana ary fahendrena tsara hita ao aminao.
15 And now the wise [men], the astrologers, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known to me the interpretation of it, but they could not show the interpretation of the thing:
Ary vao teo dia efa nampidirina teto anatrehako ny olon-kendry sy ny mpisikidy hamaky io soratra io sy hampahafantatra ahy ny heviny; fa tsy nahalaza ny hevitry ny teny izy;
16 And I have heard of thee, that thou canst make interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation of it, thou shalt be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom.
ary efa reko ny aminao, fa ianao no mahalaza hevitra sy mahay mampiseho hevitra miafina; koa raha mahavaky ny soratra sy mampahafantatra ahy ny heviny ianao, dia hampiakanjoina volomparasy, sy hasiana rofo volamena ny vozonao, ary ho isan’ ny mpanapaka telo lahy amin’ ny fanjakana ianao.
17 Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; yet I will read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
Dia namaly Daniela ka nanao teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Aoka ihany ho anao ny fanomezanao, ary ny valim-pitianao omeo ny hafa; nefa hovakiko amin’ ny mpanjaka ihany ny soratra, ary hampahafantariko azy ny heviny.
18 O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honor:
Ny aminao, ry mpanjaka ô, Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra efa nanome fanjakana sy fahalehibiazana sy voninahitra ary laza an’ i Nebokadnezara rainao;
19 And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he would he put down.
ary noho ny fahalehibiazana izay nomeny azy, ny fokom-pirenena sy ny firenena ary ny samy hafa fiteny rehetra dia nangovitra sy natahotra teo anatrehany; izay tiany hovonoina dia novonoiny; ary izay tiany hovelomina dia novelominy; ary izay tiany hasandratra dia nasandrany; ary izay tiany haetry dia naetriny.
20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him:
Fa nony niavonavona kosa ny fony, ary nikikitra tamin’ ny fireharehana ny fanahiny, dia naetry niala tamin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakany izy, ary ny voninahiny nesorina taminy;
21 And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling [was] with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruleth in the kingdom of men, and [that] he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.
dia noroahina niala tamin’ ny zanak’ olombelona izy; ary ny fony natao tahaka ny an’ ny biby, ary ny fonenany tany amin’ ny boriki-dia, dia nampihinanina ahitra toy ny omby izy, ary kotsan’ ny andon’ ny lanitra ny tenany, ambara-pahafantany fa Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra no manapaka amin’ ny fanjakan’ ny olona, ary izay tiany no tendreny ho mpanjakany.
22 And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though thou knewest all this;
Ary ianao, ry Belsazara zanany, dia tsy mba nampietry ny fonao, na dia fantatrao aza izany rehetra izany;
23 But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drank wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath [is], and whose [are] all thy ways, thou hast not glorified.
fa niavonavona tamin’ ny Tompon’ ny lanitra ianao; ary ny fanaky ny tranon’ Andriamanitra dia nentina eto anatrehanao, ary ianao sy ny mpanolo-tsainao sy ny vadinao mbamin’ ny vaditsindranonao nisotro divay taminy; ary ianao nankalaza ny andriamanitra volafotsy sy volamena sy varahina sy vy sy hazo ary vato, izay tsy mahita, na mandre, na mahalala; fa Andriamanitra Izay mitana ny ainao sady Tompon’ ny alehanao rehetra dia tsy mba nankalazainao.
24 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.
Ary noho izany dia Izy no nihavian’ ilay rantsan-tanana, ka voasoratra ireo teny ireo.
25 And this [is] the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
Ary ny teny voasoratra dia izao: Mene, Mene, Tekela, Oparesina.
26 This [is] the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
Izao no hevitry ny teny: Mene, voaisan’ Andriamanitra ny nanjakanao ka taperiny amin’ izao;
27 TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
Tekela, efa voalanja tamin’ ny mizana ianao ka, indro, latsa-danja;
28 PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
Paresa, zarazaraina ny fanjakanao ka omena ho an’ ny Mediana sy ny Persiana.
29 Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and [put] a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Ary Belsazara dia nanome teny, ka dia nampiakanjoina volomparasy Daniela, sady nasiana rojo volamena ny vozony, ary nisy niantso azy ho isan’ ny mpanapaka telo lahy amin’ ny fanjakana.
30 In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.
Ary tamin’ io alina io ihany dia novonoina Belsazara, mpanjakan’ ny Kaldeana.
31 And Darius the Median took the kingdom, [being] about sixty and two years old.
Ary Dariosa Mediana no nandray ny fanjakana, rehefa tokony ho roa amby enim-polo taona no andro niainany.
