Daniel 2
1 In the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams; and his spirit was troubled, and his sleep went from him.
Ke yac se akluo in pacl Nebuchadnezzar el tokosra, el oru sie mweme. Yokla fohs lal kac, oru el kofla motul.
2 Then the king commanded that the magicians, the enchanters, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans be called to tell the king his dreams. So they came in and stood before the king.
Ouinge el sapla solama mwet susfa lal, mwet inutnut, mwet sramsram nu sin inut, ac mwet mwenmen lal in tuku ac aketeya mweme sac nu sel. Ke elos tuku ac tu ye mutun tokosra,
3 The king said to them, “I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.”
el fahk nu selos, “Nga arulana fohsak ke mweme se nga oru. Nga ke etu lah mea kalmac.”
4 Then the Chaldeans spoke to the king in the Syrian language, “O king, live forever! Tell your servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.”
Elos topuk tokosra ke kas Aramaic, “Lela in loes moul lun tokosra! Fahkma nu sesr mweme sacn, ac kut ac fah aketeya nu sum.”
5 The king answered the Chaldeans, “The thing has gone from me. If you don’t make known to me the dream and its interpretation, you will be cut in pieces, and your houses will be made a dunghill.
Ac tokosra el fahk nu selos, “Nga sulela tari mu komtal ac fahkma nu sik mweme sac, na aketeya lah mea kalmac. Komtal fin tia ku, nga ac sap in sreyuki monumtal nu ke ip srisrik, ac lohm sumtal an in rakinyuki nwe ke orala yol in kutkut.
6 But if you show the dream and its interpretation, you will receive from me gifts, rewards, and great honor. Therefore show me the dream and its interpretation.”
A komtal fin fahkma nu sik mweme sac oayapa kalmac, na nga ac fah akfulatye komtal ac sot mwe moul yohk. Kwal, fahkma lah mea mweme sac, ac mea kalmac.”
7 They answered the second time and said, “Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.”
Elos sifilpa topkol tokosra ac fahk, “Leum lasr fin fahkma na lah mweme fuka se, na kut ac fah akkalemye kalmac an.”
8 The king answered, “I know of a certainty that you are trying to gain time, because you see the thing has gone from me.
Ke elos fahk ouinge ah, na tokosra el liksreni na fahk, “Ma na nga nunku ah ingan! Komtal suk na ma in eisla pacl, mweyen komtal etu na lah nga akola
9 But if you don’t make known to me the dream, there is but one law for you; for you have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, until the situation changes. Therefore tell me the dream, and I will know that you can show me its interpretation.”
in sot nu sumtal lupan kaiyuk sefanna komtal fin tia fahkma kalmen mweme sac. Komtal pwapani komtal in tuku fahk kas kikiap in sisla pacl, mweyen komtal nunku mu nga ac ku in ekulla ma nga fahk uh. Fahkma lah mea mweme sac, na nga ac etu lah komtal ac ku in aketeya pac kalmac uh nu sik.”
10 The Chaldeans answered the king and said, “There is not a man on the earth who can show the king’s matter, because no king, lord, or ruler has asked such a thing of any magician, enchanter, or Chaldean.
Ac mwet kasru fulat inge topuk ac fahk, “Wangin sie mwet fin faclu nufon ac ku in fahkot nu sin tokosra ma kom ke etu an. Wangin sie tokosra, finne tokosra se ma pwengpeng, ku yohk oemeet ku la, nu oru kain sap upa se ingan nu sin mwet susfa lal, mwet inutnut, ac mwet mwenmen lal.
11 It is a rare thing that the king requires, and there is no other who can show it before the king except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.”
Ma tokosra siyuk ingan arulana upa, oru wangin mwet ku in fahkot nu sin tokosra sayen god uh, a god inge tia muta inmasrlon mwet uh.”
12 Because of this, the king was angry and very furious, and commanded that all the wise men of Babylon be destroyed.
Ke elos fahk ouinge, tokosra el foloyak, ac sap in anwukla nufon mwet kasru fulat lal in acn Babylon.
13 So the decree went out, and the wise men were to be slain. They sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.
Ouinge sapkakinyuk tuh in anwuki elos nufon, welulang pac Daniel ac mwet kawuk lal ah.
14 Then Daniel returned answer with counsel and prudence to Arioch the captain of the king’s guard, who had gone out to kill the wise men of Babylon.
Na Daniel el som nu yorol Arioch, su leum fin mwet karinginyal tokosra, su itukyang kunal in uniya mwet inge. Daniel el arulana sulela wo kas elan fahk,
15 He answered Arioch the king’s captain, “Why is the decree so urgent from the king?” Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.
ac el siyuk sel Arioch lah efu ku tokosra el orala ma sap na upa se inge. Ouinge Arioch el aketeya nu sel Daniel ma sikyak uh.
16 Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would appoint him a time, and he would show the king the interpretation.
In pacl sacna Daniel el som ac eis ku sin mwet fulat lun inkul uh in kolla kutu srisrik pacl uh, elan ku in akkalemye nu sin tokosra kalmen mweme sah.
17 Then Daniel went to his house and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions:
Na Daniel el folokla nu yen el muta we, ac fahk nu sin mwet kawuk lal, Hananiah, Mishael, ac Azariah ke ma su sikyak inge.
18 that they would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning this secret, that Daniel and his companions would not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
El fahk nu selos in pre nu sin God inkusrao tuh Elan pakoten nu selos ac ikasla kalmen ma lukma se inge nu selos, tuh elos fah tia anwuki wi mwet kasru fulat saya in acn Babylon.
19 Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a vision of the night. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
Na in fong sacna ma lukma se inge ikakla nu sel Daniel in sie aruruma, ac el kaksakin God inkusrao, ac fahk,
20 Daniel answered, “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever; for wisdom and might are his.
“God El lalmwetmet ac kulana! Kaksakunul nwe tok ma pahtpat.
21 He changes the times and the seasons. He removes kings and sets up kings. He gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those who have understanding.
El nununku pacl uh ac ekyek lun pulan pacl uh; El tulokunak ac ikruiya tokosra uh; El pa sang etauk ac lalmwetmet.
22 He reveals the deep and secret things. He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.
El ikasla kalmen ma lukma ac ma loal kalmac; El etu ma su oan wikla in lohsr uh, Ac El sifacna rauniyukla ke kalem.
23 I thank you and praise you, O God of my fathers, who have given me wisdom and might, and have now made known to me what we desired of you; for you have made known to us the king’s matter.”
Nga kaksakin kom ac akfulatye kom, God lun mwet matu luk. Kom ase ku nu sik ac etauk luk; Kom topokma pre luk, Ac akkalemye nu sesr ma kut in fahk nu sin tokosra.”
24 Therefore Daniel went in to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon. He went and said this to him: “Don’t destroy the wise men of Babylon. Bring me in before the king, and I will show to the king the interpretation.”
Na Daniel el som nu yorol Arioch, su tuh supweyuk in uniya mwet kasru fulat lun tokosra inge, ac el fahk nu sel, “Nimet kom onelosla. Usyula nu yorol tokosra ac nga fah fahkang nu sel kalmen mweme se lal ah.”
25 Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said this to him: “I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Judah who will make known to the king the interpretation.”
Kitin pacl ah na Arioch el usalak Daniel nu ye mutal tokosra ac fahk nu sel, “Nga konauk sie sin mwet Israel ma wi sruoh, su ac ku in fahkak nu sin tokosra kalmen mweme se lom.”
26 The king answered Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, “Are you able to make known to me the dream which I have seen, and its interpretation?”
Na tokosra el fahk nu sel Daniel (su oayapa pangpang Belteshazzar), “Kom ku in fahkma mweme se luk ah, ac aketeya lah mea kalmac?”
27 Daniel answered before the king, and said, “The secret which the king has demanded can’t be shown to the king by wise men, enchanters, magicians, or soothsayers;
Ac Daniel el topuk, “O Tokosra, wangin mwet mwenmen, mwet inutnut, mwet susfa, ku mwet tuni ma oan yen engyeng uh, su ac ku in fahkak nu sum ma se ingan.
28 but there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets, and he has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will be in the latter days. Your dream and the visions of your head on your bed are these:
Tusruktu, oasr sie God inkusrao su ikasla ma lukma uh. El akkalemye nu sin Tokosra ma su ac sikyak in pacl fahsru uh. Ac inge nga ac fahkot mweme sacn, su kom arurumai ke kom motul.
29 “As for you, O king, your thoughts came on your bed, what should happen hereafter; and he who reveals secrets has made known to you what will happen.
“Ke pacl se tokosra tuh motul ah, tokosra mwemei ma ac sikyak in pacl tok uh; ac God, su ikasla kalmen ma lukma, El akkalemye ma ac sikyak uh.
30 But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living, but to the intent that the interpretation may be made known to the king, and that you may know the thoughts of your heart.
Ma lukma se inge akkalemyeyukme nu sik, tia ke sripen nga lalmwetmet liki kutena mwet, a tuh Tokosra in ku in etu kalmen mweme sac, ac in kalem ke nunak su sikyak nu sin tokosra.
31 “You, O king, saw, and behold, a great image. This image, which was mighty, and whose brightness was excellent, stood before you; and its appearance was terrifying.
“O Tokosra, in aruruma sac, tokosra tuh liye sie ma sruloala na yohk tu ye mutun tokosra — arulana kalem ac saromrom, ac mwe aksangeng in liyeyuk.
32 As for this image, its head was of fine gold, its chest and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze,
Sifa ah orekla ke gold ma wo emeet; iniwa ah ac pao ah orek ke silver; ac infulwal nu ke intwel orekla ke bronze.
33 its legs of iron, its feet part of iron and part of clay.
Nial orekla ke osra, ac falkal orekla ke osra ac fohk kle akulamisak.
34 You saw until a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on its feet that were of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces.
Ke kom tuh ngetang liye ah, eot na lulap se tufwacla liki fin fulu se, a tia ma mwet moklela, twe sunna nia su orek ke osra ac kle, ac koteya.
35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were broken in pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors. The wind carried them away, so that no place was found for them. The stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
In pacl sacna osra, kle, bronze, silver, ac gold nukewa kac ah mokutkuti, oana kulun wheat ma kulkulla ke pacl fol uh, ac ipsriki oana apat uh. Eng ah okla ma inge nufon ac tia sie ip kac lula. A eot sac yokelik nwe oana eol soko su afinya faclu nufon.
36 “This is the dream; and we will tell its interpretation before the king.
“Pa inge mweme sac. Inge nga ac akkalemye nu sin tokosra kalmac uh.
37 You, O king, are king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, the strength, and the glory.
O Tokosra, kom pa fulat oemeet sin tokosra nukewa uh. God inkusrao El orala tuh kom in tokosra fulat, ac El sot nu sum wal, ku, ac sunak.
38 Wherever the children of men dwell, he has given the animals of the field and the birds of the sky into your hand, and has made you rule over them all. You are the head of gold.
El orala tuh in kom pa leum fin acn nukewa faclu ma oasr mwet muta we, ac oayapa leum fin kosro ac won nukewa. Kom pa sifa se ma orekla ke gold inge.
39 “After you, another kingdom will arise that is inferior to you; and another third kingdom of bronze, which will rule over all the earth.
Ac fah mau oasr pac sie tokosrai tukum, su ac tia arulana pwengpeng oana tokosrai se lom inge, ac toko ac oasr pac sie tokosrai aktolu, ma orekla ke bronze, su ac leumi faclu nufon.
40 The fourth kingdom will be strong as iron, because iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things; and as iron that crushes all these, it will break in pieces and crush.
Toko, ac oasr tokosrai se pac akakosr su ac fokoko oana osra uh. Tokosrai se ingan ac fah fukulya ac kunauselik tokosrai nukewa meet ah, oana ke osra uh ac fukulya ac kunauselik ma nukewa.
41 Whereas you saw the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay and part of iron, it will be a divided kingdom; but there will be in it of the strength of the iron, because you saw the iron mixed with miry clay.
Kom tuh liye pac lah falkal ac kufinnial orekla ke fohk kle ac osra. Kalmac pa tokosrai se inge ac mau kitakatelik, na ku se la uh ac ku in srifal mweyen oasr osra ac fohk kle akulamisi kac.
42 As the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle.
Kufinnial — su kutu ip uh osra ac kutu fohk kle — akkalemye lah tafu tokosrai se inge ac ku, ac tafu ac munas.
43 Whereas you saw the iron mixed with miry clay, they will mingle themselves with the seed of men; but they won’t cling to one another, even as iron does not mix with clay.
Kom oayapa liye lah osra ah akulamisi ke fohk kle. Kalmen ma se inge pa mwet leum ke tokosrai se inge ac srike in orani sou lalos in ma se lac ke elos ac oru mwet lalos uh in tukeni apayuki, tusruktu elos ac tia ku in orani, oana ke osra ac fohk kle tia ku in akonoki.
44 “In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which will never be destroyed, nor will its sovereignty be left to another people; but it will break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it will stand forever.
In pacl lun mwet leum inge, God inkusrao El ac fah oakiya sie tokosrai su ac fah wangin saflaiya. Ac fah tiana ku in kutangyukla, a ac fah kunausla nufon tokosrai ingan, na ac fah oanna nwe tok.
45 Because you saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold, the great God has made known to the king what will happen hereafter. The dream is certain, and its interpretation sure.”
Kom tuh liye pac ke eot sac ipipla liki fin fulu sac a wanginna mwet mokleak, ac ke eot sac tukya ma sruloala sac ma orekla ke osra, bronze, fohk kle, silver ac gold. God fulat El fahk nu sum, O Tokosra, ma ac sikyak in pacl fahsru uh. Nga fahkot kewa ma kom mwemei, ac akkalemye pac nu sum kalmac uh.”
46 Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, worshiped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an offering and sweet odors to him.
Na Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el pasrla nwe ten ac sapkin tuh in orek mwe kisa ac mwe sang nu sel Daniel.
47 The king answered to Daniel, and said, “Of a truth your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you have been able to reveal this secret.”
Tokosra el fahk, “God lom El fulat liki god nukewa. El Leum fin tokosra uh, ac El ikasla kalmen ma lukma. Nga etu ouinge mweyen kom ku in aketeya ma lukma se inge.”
48 Then the king made Daniel great and gave him many great gifts, and made him rule over the whole province of Babylon and to be chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.
Ouinge el akfulatyalak Daniel nu ke sie wal fulat, ac sang nu sel mwe lung na wowo puspis, ac oru elan leumi acn Babylon, ac oru tuh in el pa leum fin un mwet kasru fulat nukewa lun tokosra.
49 Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego over the affairs of the province of Babylon, but Daniel was in the king’s gate.
Fal nu ke siyuk se lal Daniel, Tokosra el eisalang Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego in karingin mukuikui nukewa in acn Babylon; a Daniel el mutana inkul fulat sin tokosra.
