Daniel 5
1 Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
Цар Валтасар учини велику гозбу хиљади кнезова својих, и пијаше вино пред хиљадом њих.
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.
Напив се вина Валтасар заповеди да се донесу судови златни и сребрни, које беше однео Навуходоносор отац му из цркве јерусалимске, да из њих пију цар и кнезови му и жене његове и иноче његове.
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.
И донесоше златне судове које беху однели из цркве дома Господњег у Јерусалиму, и пијаху из њих цар и кнезови његови, жене његове и иноче његове.
4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
Пијаху вино, и хваљаху богове златне и сребрне и бронзане и дрвене и камене.
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.
У тај час изиђоше прсти руке човечије и писаху према свећњаку по окреченом зиду од царског двора, и цар виде руку која писаше.
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.
Тада се промени лице цару, и мисли га његове узнемирише и појас се око њега распаса и колена му удараху једно о друго.
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.
Повика цар гласно, те доведоше звездаре, Халдеје и гатаре; и проговори цар и рече мудрацима вавилонским: Ко прочита ово писмо и каже ми шта значи, онај ће се обући у скерлет, и носиће златну верижицу о врату, и биће трећи господар у царству.
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.
Тада приступише сви мудраци цареви; али не могоше прочитати писма нити казати цару шта значи.
9 Then was the king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were astonished.
Тада се цар Валтасар врло узнемири, и лице му се сасвим измени; и кнезови се његови препадоше.
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:
Дође царица ради тога што се догоди цару и кнезовима његовим у кућу где беше гозба, и проговори царица и рече: Царе, да си жив довека! Да те не узнемирују мисли твоје, и да ти се лице не мења.
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;
Има човек у твом царству, у коме је дух светих богова; и у време оца твог нађе се у њега видело и разум и мудрост, каква је у богова, и цар Навуходоносор, отац твој, царе, постави га главарем врачарима, звездарима, Халдејима и гатарима;
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.
Јер велик дух и знање и разум за казивање снова и погађање загонетки и размршивање замршених ствари нађе се у Данила, коме цар наде име Валтасар; нека сада дозову Данила, и он ће казати шта значи.
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?
Тада Данило би доведен пред цара. Цар проговори Данилу и рече: Јеси ли ти Данило између робља Јудина, које доведе из јудејске цар отац мој?
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.
Чух за тебе да је дух светих богова у теби, и видело и разум и мудрост велика да се нађе у тебе.
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:
А сада су доведени преда ме мудраци, звездари, да прочитају писмо и кажу ми шта значи; али не могу да кажу шта то значи.
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.
А за тебе ја чух да можеш протумачити и замршене ствари размрсити. Ако, дакле, можеш прочитати ово писмо и казати ми шта значи, обући ћеш се у скерлет, и златну верижицу носићеш о врату, и бићеш трећи господар у царству.
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.
Тада одговори Данило и рече пред царем: Дарови твоји нека теби, и подај другом поклоне своје; а писмо ћу ја прочитати цару и казати шта значи.
18 O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honor:
Царе, Бог Вишњи даде царство величину и славу и част Навуходоносору, оцу твом.
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.
И од величине коју му даде сви народи, племена и језици дрхтаху пред њим и бојаху га се; убијаше кога хоћаше, и остављаше у животу кога хоћаше, узвишаваше кога хоћаше, и понижаваше кога хоћаше.
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:
Али када му се подиже срце и дух му се посили у охолости, би сметнут с царског престола свог, и узеше му славу.
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.
И би прогнан између људи и срце му поста као у звери, и стан му беше с дивљим магарцима, хранише га травом као говеда, и роса небеска кваси му тело, докле позна да Бог Вишњи влада царством људским, и кога хоће поставља над њим.
22 And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though thou knewest all this;
А ти, Валтасаре, сине његов, ниси понизио срца свог премда си знао све ово.
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.
Него си се подигао на Господа небеског, и судове дома Његовог донесоше преда те, и писте из њих вино ти и кнезови твоји, жене твоје и иноче твоје, и ти хвали богове сребрне и златне, бронзане, гвоздене, дрвене и камене, који не виде нити чују, нити разумеју, а не слави Бога, у чијој је руци душа твоја и сви путеви твоји.
24 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.
Зато од Њега би послана рука и ово писмо би написано.
25 And this [is] the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
А ово је писмо написано: МЕНЕ, МЕНЕ, ТЕКЕЛ, УФАРСИН.
26 This [is] the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
А ово значе те речи: МЕНЕ, бројао је Бог твоје царство и до краја избројао.
27 TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
ТЕКЕЛ, измерен си на мерила, и нашао си се лак.
28 PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
ФЕРЕС, раздељено је царство твоје, и дано Мидијанима и Персијанима.
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.
Тада заповеди Валтасар, те обукоше Данила у скерлет, и метнуше му златну верижицу око врата, и прогласише за њ да је трећи господар у царству.
30 In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.
Исту ноћ би убијен Валтасар, цар халдејски.
31 And Darius the Median took the kingdom, [being] about sixty and two years old.
А Дарије Мидијанин преузе царство, и беше му око шездесет и две године.
