Daniel 5
1 Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
Belshazzar manghai loh a boei thawngkhat hamla boeilen buhkoknah a saii tih thawngkhat mikhmuh ah misurtui a ok.
2 Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded that the golden and silver vessels which Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem be brought to him, that the king and his lords, his wives and his concubines, might drink from them.
Belshazzar loh, “Misurtui yukung ah a napa Nebukhadnezzar loh Jerusalem bawkim lamkah a loh sui neh cak hnopai te hang khuen lamtah te nen manghai neh a boei rhoek, a yuu rhoek neh a yula rhoek long khaw o saeh,” a ti.
3 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of God’s house which was at Jerusalem; and the king and his lords, his wives and his concubines, drank from them.
Te dongah Jerusalem, Pathen im kah bawkim lamloh a loh sui hnopai te a khuen uh tih te nen te manghai neh a boei rhoek long khaw, a yuu rhoek neh a yula rhoek long khaw a ok uh.
4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of bronze, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
Misurtui a ok uh vaengah sui pathen neh cak, rhohum, thi, thing, lungto te a koeh uh.
5 In the same hour, the fingers of a man’s hand came out and wrote near the lamp stand on the plaster of the wall of the king’s palace. The king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
Amah tekah khonoek vaengah hlang kut dongkah kutdawn rhoek a caeh pah. Te phoeiah manghai hmaitung hmatoeng, manghai bawkim thoh dongkah taptlang dongah ca a daek pah. A daek vaengah ah khaw kut dongkah kutbom bueng ni manghai loh a hmuh.
6 Then the king’s face was changed in him, and his thoughts troubled him; and the joints of his thighs were loosened, and his knees struck one against another.
Te dongah manghai te a aa yat tih a poeknah loh amah a cahawh coeng. A hlit kah rhuhcong khaw phit tih a khuklu te heben hebang la a khuek.
7 The king cried aloud to bring in the enchanters, the Kasdim, and the soothsayers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, “Whoever reads this writing and shows me its interpretation shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”
Manghai loh rhaitonghma rhoek khaw, Khalden rhoek khaw, aisi aka suep rhoek te khue hamla thadueng neh pang. Te phoeiah manghai te cal tih Babylon hlang cueih rhoek te, “Cadaek he a tae tih a thuingaihnah kai hamla aka thui hlang boeih te tah daidi hni a bai vetih a rhawn ah sui a oi vetih ram a pathum nah dongah boei ni,” a ti nah.
8 Then all the king’s wise men came in; but they could not read the writing, and couldn’t make known to the king the interpretation.
Manghai kah hlang cueih boeih te cet tah cet uh dae cadaek te tae tih manghai taengah a thuingaihnah, thuicaih ham noeng uh pawh.
9 Then King Belshazzar was greatly troubled, and his face was changed in him, and his lords were perplexed.
Te dongah manghai Belshazzar muep let tih a aa yat tih amah neh a boei rhoek khaw a lukil uh.
10 The queen by reason of the words of the king and his lords came into the banquet house. The queen spoke and said, “O king, live forever; don’t let your thoughts trouble you, nor let your face be changed.
Manghai neh a boei rhoek kah ol kong ah manghainu khaw buhkoknah im la cet. Manghainu long khaw a voek tih, “Manghai tah kumhal duela hing saeh, na poeknah loh nang n'let sak boel saeh lamtah na aa yat boel saeh.
11 There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of your father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him. The king, Nebuchadnezzar, your father—yes, the king, your father—made him master of the magicians, enchanters, Kasdim, and soothsayers,
Na ram ah he a khuiah Pathen kah mueihla cim aka khueh hlang om ta. Na pa tue vaengah khaw vangnah, lungmingnah neh cueihnah he a khuiah Pathen kah cueihnah bangla tueng ta. Na pa manghai Nebukhadnezzar loh anih te na pa manghai kah hmayuep, rhaitonghma, Khalden neh aisi aka suep kah boei la a khueh ta.
12 because an excellent spirit, knowledge, understanding, interpreting of dreams, showing of dark 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.”
Te kong dongah tah a mueihla lang tih mingnah, lungmingnah neh mang a thuicaih. Olkael aka phoe tih rhuhcong aka hlam khaw amah la Daniel dongah tueng coeng. Anih te manghai loh a ming Belteshazzar la a khueh tih Daniel la aka coeng he khue lamtah a thuingaihnah a thui bitni,” a ti nah.
13 Then Daniel was brought in before the king. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Are you that Daniel of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?
Te dongah Daniel te manghai taengla a khuen tih manghai loh a voek. Te vaengah Daniel te, “Judah hlangsol ca lamkah Daniel he nang namah dae a? A pa manghai loh Judah lamkah a khuen te.
14 I have heard of you, that the spirit of the gods is in you and that light, understanding, and excellent wisdom are found in you.
Nang kawng he na khuiah Pathen mueihla om tih vangnah, lungmingnah, cueihnah loh na khuiah bahoeng tueng coeng tila ka yaak coeng.
15 Now the wise men, the enchanters, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known to me its interpretation; but they could not show the interpretation of the thing.
Ka taengah cadaek he tae uh saeh lamtah a thuingaihnah te kai hamla thuicaih saeh tila hlang cueih la rhaitonghma khaw hang khuen uh coeng dae ol kah thuingaihnah te thui hamla a noeng uh moenih.
16 But I have heard of you, that you can give interpretations and dissolve doubts. Now if you can read the writing and make known to me its interpretation, you shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold around your neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”
Nang namah tah thuingaihnah thuicaih ham neh rhuhcong pataeng hlam ham na noeng rhoe na noeng tila ka yaak coeng. Cadaek te tae ham neh a thuingaihnah te kai taengah thuicaih ham na noeng la na noeng atah daidi hni na bai vetih a oi pataeng sui oi ni na rhawn ah na oi eh. Te phoeiah ram khuiah a pathum nah la na boei ni,” a ti nah.
17 Then Daniel answered before the king, “Let your gifts be to yourself, and give your rewards to another. Nevertheless, I will read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
Te dongah Daniel loh manghai te a doo tih, “Na kutdoe he namah ham om saeh lamtah na thapang te a tloe taengah pae mai. Tedae cadaek te manghai hamla kan tae vetih a thuingaihnah kan thuicaih bitni.
18 “To you, king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar your father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty.
Manghai nang, namah he a sangkoek kah sangkoek Pathen loh ram neh lennah khaw, thangpomnah neh hinyahnah khaw na pa Nebukhadnezzar taengah a paek.
19 Because of the greatness that he gave him, all the peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him. He killed whom he wanted to, and he kept alive whom he wanted to. He raised up whom he wanted to, and he put down whom he wanted to.
Anih te lennah a paek dongah namtu pilnam cungkuem neh olcom olcae aka om rhoek loh thuen la thuen uh tih a taengah birhih uh. A ngaih a om te om bangla a ngawn tih a ngaih a om te a om bangla a hing sak. A ngaih a om te a om bangla a pacuet tih a ngaih a om te a om bangla a kunyun sak.
20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proudly, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him.
Tedae a thinko te a pacuet tih altha hamla a mueihla a phuel dongah a ram kah ngolkhoel lamloh rhum tih a thangpomnah te anih lamloh a khoe pa uh.
21 He was driven from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the animals’, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. He was fed with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of the sky, until he knew that the Most High God rules in the kingdom of men, and that he sets up over it whomever he will.
Te phoeiah hlang ca rhoek taeng lamloh a vai tih a thinko te rhamsa la a khueh pah. A khosaknah khaw marhang lueng neh om tih vaito bangla rham a cah uh. Hlang kah ram soah a sangkoek kah a sangkoek Pathen loh a hung tih a ngaih taengah te te a pai sak tila a ming hil a pum te vaan kah buem neh a saep sak.
22 “You, his son, Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all this,
He kong he boeih na ming lalah a capa Belshazzar nang khaw na thinko na kunyun sak moenih.
23 but have lifted up yourself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before you, and you and your lords, your wives, and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. You have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which don’t see, or hear, or know; and you have not glorified the God in whose hand your breath is, and whose are all your ways.
Vaan kah Boeipa taengah lat a pacuet uh tih a im kah hnopai te namah taengla hang khuen uh. Namah neh na boei rhoek long khaw, na boei rhoek neh na yuu rhoek long khaw, na yula rhoek long khaw te nen te misurtui a ok uh. Te phoeiah cak, sui, rhohum, thi, thing neh lungto pathen, aka hmu thai pawh, aka ya thai pawh, aka ming thai pawt te na koeh uh. Pathen amah kut ah na maal om tih na longpuei boeih he amah taengah om dae na hinyah moenih.
24 Then the part of the hand was sent from before him, and this writing was inscribed.
Te dongah ni amah taeng lamloh kut dongkah kutbom te a tueih pah tih cadaek he a daek pah.
25 “This is the writing that was inscribed: ‘MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.’
Te cadaek te, “Mene, Mene, Tekel neh Uparsin,” la a daek.
26 “This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE: God has counted your kingdom, and brought it to an end.
Mene ollung kah a thuingaihnah he tah Pathen loh na ram he a khueh dae a khah coeng.
27 TEKEL: you are weighed in the balances, and are found wanting.
Tekel tah coi dongah n'khiing dae a vawt m'hmuh.
28 PERES: your kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.”
Peres, na ram rhek tih Media neh Persia taengah a paek,” a ti nah.
29 Then Belshazzar commanded, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Te dongah Belshazzar loh a thui bangla Daniel te daidi a bai sak uh. A oi khaw sui oi te a rhawn ah a oi sak. Anih te a ram ah a pathum nah aka hung la om ham a hoe uh.
30 In that night Belshazzar the Kasdian King was slain.
Amah te khoyin ah Belshazzar manghai te Khalden loh a ngawn.
31 Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.
Te dongah Median kah Media Darius he kum sawmrhuk kum nit a lo ca vaengah ram a dang.
