Atĩrĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa gatatũ wa ũthamaki wa Jehoiakimu, mũthamaki wa Juda-rĩ, Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni nĩokire itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu, akĩrĩrigiicĩria nĩguo arĩtunyane.
2 And the Lord bitook in his hond Joachym, the kyng of Juda, and he took a part of the vessels of the hous of God; and he bar out tho in to the lond of Sennaar, in to the hous of his god, and he took the vessels in to the hous of tresour of his god.
Nake Mwathani akĩrekereria Jehoiakimu, mũthamaki wa Juda, guoko-inĩ gwake, hamwe na indo imwe kuuma hekarũ-inĩ ya Ngai. Nake Nebukadinezaru agĩkuua indo icio, agĩcitwara hekarũ-inĩ ya ngai yake kũu Babuloni, na agĩciiga nyũmba-inĩ ĩrĩa yaigagwo igĩĩna cia ngai yake.
3 And the kyng seide to Asphaneth, souereyn of his onest seruauntis and chast, that he schulde brynge yn of the sones of Israel, and of the kyngis seed, and the children of tirauntis, in whiche weren no wem,
Ningĩ mũthamaki ũcio agĩatha Ashipenazi, ũrĩa warĩ mũrori mũnene wa anene a nyũmba yake ya ũthamaki, amũrehere andũ amwe arĩa moimĩte Isiraeli a nyũmba ya ũthamaki na a rũciaro rwa andũ arĩa maarĩ igweta,
4 faire in schap, and lerned in al wisdom, war in kunnyng, and tauyt in chastisyng, and that myyten stonde in the paleis of the kyng, that he schulde teche hem the lettris and langage of Caldeis.
nao makorwo marĩ aanake matarĩ kaũũgũ o na karĩkũ, na athaka makĩonwo, na andũ mekuoneka marĩ na ũtaũku maũndũ-inĩ mothe ma kwĩrutwo, na andũ mooĩ maũndũ wega, na ahũthũ kũnyiita maũndũ, na magĩrĩire gũtungata thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki. Ashipenazi aarĩ arute andũ acio rũthiomi na maandĩko ma Ababuloni.
5 And the king ordeynede to hem lijflode bi ech dai of hise meetis, and of the wyn wherof he drank; that thei nurschid bi thre yeer, schulden stonde aftirward bifor the siyt of the kyng.
Nake mũthamaki agĩtua maheagwo irio na ndibei mũthenya o mũthenya iria we mwene aarĩĩaga; maarĩ mathomithio maũndũ ihinda rĩa mĩaka ĩtatũ, na thuutha ũcio matoonye wĩra-inĩ wa gũtungatĩra mũthamaki.
6 Therfor Danyel, Ananye, Myzael, and Azarie, of the sones of Juda, weren among hem.
Thĩinĩ wa acio maathuurirwo nĩ haarĩ na aanake amwe maarutĩtwo Juda: Na nĩo Danieli, na Hanania, na Mishaeli, na Azaria.
7 And the souereyn of onest seruauntis and chast puttide to hem names; to Danyel he puttide Balthasar; to Ananye, Sidrach; to Mysael, Misach; and to Azarie, Abdenago.
Nake mũrori ũcio wa anene arĩa angĩ nĩamaheire marĩĩtwa mangĩ: Danieli akĩmwĩta Beliteshazaru, nake Hanania agĩĩtwo Shadiraka, nake Mishaeli agĩĩtwo Meshaki, nake Azaria agĩĩtwo Abedinego.
8 Forsothe Danyel purposide in his herte, that he schulde not be defoulid of the boord of the kyng, nether of the wyn of his drink; and he preiede the souereyn of onest seruauntis and chast, that he schulde not be defoulid.
No rĩrĩ, Danieli agĩtua na ngoro yake atĩ ndegwĩthaahia na irio na ndibei ĩyo ya mũthamaki, na akĩũria mũrori ũcio wa anene etĩkĩrio ndakae gwĩthaahia na ũndũ wa kũrĩa irio icio.
9 Forsothe God yaf grace and merci to Daniel, in the siyt of the prince of onest seruauntis and chast.
Nake Ngai nĩatũmĩte Danieli etĩkĩrĩke na aiguĩrwo tha nĩ mũnene ũcio,
10 And the prince of onest seruauntis and chast seide to Daniel, Y drede my lord the king, that ordeinede to you mete and drynk; and if he seeth youre faces lennere than othere yonge wexynge men, youre eueneeldis, ye schulen condempne myn heed to the kyng.
no mũnene ũcio akĩĩra Danieli atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩretigĩra mũthamaki mwathi wakwa, ũrĩa ũtuĩte kĩrĩa mũrĩheagwo gĩa kũrĩa na gĩa kũnyua. Aangĩmuona mũrĩ ahĩnju gũkĩra aanake arĩa angĩ a riika rĩanyu-rĩ, angiuga nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte? Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki no aanengithie mũtwe nĩ ũndũ wanyu.”
11 And Danyel seide to Malazar, whom the prince of onest seruauntis and chast hadde ordeynede on Danyel, Ananye, Mysael, and Asarie,
Danieli agĩcooka akĩarĩria mũrangĩri ũrĩa waheetwo wĩra nĩ mũrori wa anene arĩa angĩ wa kũroraga Danieli, na Hanania, na Mishaeli, na Azaria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ,
12 Y biseche, asaie thou vs thi seruauntis bi ten daies, and potagis be youun to vs to ete, and water to drynke; and biholde thou oure cheris,
“Ndagũthaitha, amba ũgerie ndungata ciaku handũ ha mĩthenya ikũmi: Ndũgaatũhe kĩndũ o nakĩ tiga o nyeni cia kũrĩa na maaĩ ma kũnyua.
13 and the cheris of children that eten the kyngis mete; and as thou seest, so do thou with thi seruauntis.
Matukũ macio maathira ũcooke ũtũroranie na aanake acio angĩ marĩĩaga irio icio cia mũthamaki, na thuutha ũcio ũcooke gwĩka ndungata ciaku o ta ũrĩa ũkuona kwagĩrĩire.”
14 And whanne he herde siche a word, he asaiede hem bi ten daies.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩĩtĩkĩra ũhoro ũcio, nake akĩmageria matukũ macio ikũmi.
15 Forsothe after ten daies the cheris of hem apperiden betere and fattere, than alle the children that eeten the kyngis mete.
Matukũ macio ikũmi maathira-rĩ, mothiũ mao makĩoneka maagĩrĩte, nao magatunguha gũkĩra aanake acio angĩ maarĩĩaga irio cia mũthamaki.
16 Certis Malazar took the metis, and the wyn of the drynk of hem, and yaf to hem potagis.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũmarangĩri akĩeheria irio ciao iria ciarĩ njega mũno na ndibei ĩrĩa maarĩ manyuuage na agĩcooka kũmaheaga o nyeni tu handũ ha irio icio.
17 Forsothe to these children God yaf kunnyng and lernyng in ech book, and in al wisdom; but to Daniel God yaf vndurstondyng of alle visiouns and dremys.
Na rĩrĩ, Ngai nĩaheire aanake acio ana ũmenyo na ũtaũku wa maandĩko ma mĩthemba yothe, na wĩruti wa maũndũ. Nake Danieli nĩataũkagĩrwo nĩ cioneki na irooto cia mĩthemba yothe.
18 Therfor whanne the daies weren fillid, aftir whiche the kyng seide, that thei schulden be brouyt yn, the souereyn of onest seruauntis and chast brouyte in hem, in the siyt of Nabugodonosor.
Ihinda rĩrĩa mũthamaki aatuĩte atĩ andũ acio magaatwarwo nyũmba yake thĩinĩ rĩathira-rĩ, mũrori wa anene arĩa angĩ agĩkĩmatwara harĩ Nebukadinezaru.
19 And whanne the kyng hadde spoke to hem, siche weren not foundun of alle, as Daniel, Ananye, Misael, and Azarie; and thei stoden in the siyt of the king.
Mũthamaki akĩaria nao, na ndonire mũndũ ũngĩaigananirio na Danieli, na Hanania, na Mishaeli na Azaria; na nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩtoonyio wĩra-inĩ wa gũtungatagĩra mũthamaki.
20 And ech word of wisdom and of vndurstondyng, which the king axide of hem, he foond in hem ten fold ouer alle false dyuynouris and astronomyens, that weren in al his rewme.
Ũndũ-inĩ o wothe ũkoniĩ ũũgĩ na ũtaũku wa maũndũ marĩa mũthamaki aamoragia-rĩ, agĩkora makĩrĩte ago othe na aragũri a ũthamaki wake wothe maita ikũmi.
21 Forsothe Danyel was til to the firste yeer of king Cyrus.
Nake Danieli agĩtũũra kũu nginya mwaka wa mbere wa wathani wa Mũthamaki Kurusu.
