< Daniel 2 >

1 In the secounde yeer of the rewme of Nabugodonosor, Nabugodonosor siy a dreem; and his spirit was aferd, and his dreem fledde awei fro hym.
Alò, nan dezyèm ane règn Nebucadnetsar a, Nebucadnetsar te fè rèv yo. Epi lespri li te twouble, e li pa t ka dòmi.
2 Therfor the kyng comaundide, that the dyuynours, and astronomyens, and witchis, and Caldeis schulden be clepid togidere, that thei schulden telle to the kyng hise dremys; and whanne thei weren comun, thei stoden bifor the king.
Konsa, wa a te pase lòd pou rele fè antre tout majisyen yo, mèt zetwal yo, moun ki fè cham, mèt wanga ak Kaldeyen yo pou pale ak wa a, e fè l tande ki rèv li te fè yo. Konsa, yo te antre e te kanpe devan wa a.
3 And the king seide to hem, Y siy a dreem, and Y am schent in mynde, and Y knowe not what Y siy.
Wa a te di yo: “Mwen te fè yon rèv e lespri m vin twouble pou l ta konprann rèv la.”
4 And Caldeis answeriden the kyng bi Sirik langage, Kyng, liue thou with outen ende; seie thi dreem to thi seruauntis, and we schulen schewe to thee the expownyng therof.
Kaldeyen yo te pale ak wa a an Arameyen: “O wa, viv jis pou tout tan! Pale rèv la a sèvitè ou yo e nou va deklare entèpretasyon li.”
5 And the kyng answeride, and seide to Caldeis, The word is goen awei fro me; if ye schewen not to me the dreem, and expownyng therof, ye schulen perische, and youre housis schulen be forfetid.
Wa a te reponn a Kaldeyen yo: “Lòd mwen an fin etabli: si nou pa fè m konnen rèv la ak entèpretasyon li a, nou va vin chire mòso an mòso, e lakay nou va vin yon pil ranblè.
6 Forsothe if ye tellen the dreem, and the expownyng therof, ye schulen take of me meedis and yiftis, and myche onour; therfor schewe ye to me the dreem, and the interpretyng therof.
Men si nou deklare rèv la ak entèpretasyon li, nou va resevwa nan men m, kado, rekonpans ak gwo lonè. Pou sa, fè m deklarasyon rèv la ak entèpretasyon li.”
7 Thei answeriden the secounde tyme, and seiden, The kyng seie the dreem to hise seruauntis, and we schulen schewe the interpretyng therof.
Yo te reponn yon dezyèm fwa. Yo te di: “Kite wa a eksplike rèv la a sèvitè li yo e nou va deklare entèpretasyon li.”
8 The kyng answeride, and seide, Certis Y woot, that ye ayenbien the tyme, and witen that the word is goen awei fro me.
Wa a te reponn: “Mwen konnen, anverite, ke nou ap jwe pou tan, paske nou te wè ke lòd mwen an gentan fin byen etabli.
9 Therfor if ye schewen not to me the dreem, o sentence is of you, for ye maken an interpretyng bothe fals and ful of disseit, that ye speke to me til the tyme passe; therfor seie ye the dreem to me, that Y wite, that ye speke also the veri interpretyng therof.
Men si nou pa fè m konnen rèv la, ap gen yon sèl dekrè pou nou. Paske nou te vin antann nou, youn ak lòt pou fè manti ak pale pawòl konwonpi devan m, jiskaske bagay la vin chanje. Pou sa a, fè m konnen rèv la pou m ka konnen ke nou kapab deklare entèpretasyon li ban mwen.”
10 Therfor Caldeis answeriden bifor the kyng, and seiden, Kyng, no man is on erthe, that mai fille thi word; but nether ony greet man and myyti of kyngis axith siche a word of ony dyuynour, and astronomyen, and of a man of Caldee.
Kaldeyen yo te reponn wa a, e te di: “Nanpwen yon nonm sou latè ki kapab deklare bagay la bay wa a, otan ke okenn gwo wa oswa chèf pa t janm mande okenn bagay konsa a okenn majisyen, mèt wanga, oswa Kaldeyen.
11 For the word which thou, kyng, axist, is greuouse, nether ony schal be foundun, that schal schewe it in the siyt of the king, outakun goddis, whos lyuyng is not with men.
Anplis, bagay ke wa a mande a difisil, e nanpwen okenn lòt moun ki ka deklare li bay wa a sof ke dye yo, ki pa rete nan chè mòtèl.”
12 And whanne this word was herd, the kyng comaundide, in woodnesse and in greet ire, that alle the wise men of Babiloyne schulden perische.
Akoz sa, wa a te vin ranpli ak kòlè ak gwo mekontantman, e li te bay lòd pou detwi tout mesye saj Babylone yo.
13 And bi the sentence goon out, the wise men weren slayn; and Danyel and hise felows weren souyt, that thei schulden perische.
Konsa, dekrè a te pibliye ke mesye saj yo ta dwe touye. Konsa, yo t ap chache Daniel ak zanmi li yo pou touye yo.
14 Thanne Danyel axide of the lawe and sentence, of Ariok, prynce of chyualrie of the kyng, that was gon out to sle the wise men of Babiloyne.
Men Daniel te reponn ak sajès e ak bon konprann a Ajoc, chèf kò gad a wa a, ki te ale deyò pou touye mesye saj a Babylone yo.
15 And he axide hym, that hadde take power of the kyng, for what cause so cruel a sentence yede out fro the face of the kyng. Therfor whanne Ariok hadde schewid the thing to Danyel,
Li te di a Ajoc, chèf pou wa a: “Pou ki rezon dekrè a wa a prese konsa?” Epi Ajoc te pale Daniel tout bagay la.
16 Danyel entride, and preyede the kyng, that he schulde yyue tyme to hym to schewe the soilyng to the kyng.
Konsa, Daniel te antre anndan e te fè yon demann a wa a pou li ta bay li tan, pou l ta ka deklare entèpretasyon an bay a wa a.
17 And he entride in to his hous, and schewide the nede to Ananye, and to Misael, and Asarie,
Epi Daniel te ale lakay li. Li te fè zanmi li yo Hanania, Mischaël, ak Azaria okouran konsènan bagay sila a,
18 hise felowis, that thei schulden axe merci of the face of God of heuene on this sacrament; and that Danyel and hise felowis schulden not perische with othere wise men of Babiloyne.
pou yo ta kapab fè yon demann mizerikòd a Bondye syèl la konsènan mistè sa a, pou Daniel ak zanmi li yo pa ta vin detwi ak lòt nan mesye saj a Babylone yo.
19 Thanne the priuyte was schewid to Danyel bi a visioun in nyyt. And Danyel blesside God of heuene, and seide,
Konsa, mistè a te revele a Daniel nan yon vizyon lanwit la.
20 The name of the Lord be blessid fro the world, and til in to the world, for wisdom and strengthe ben hise;
Daniel te di: “Kite non Bondye vin beni jis pou tout tan, paske sajès ak pouvwa se pou Li.
21 and he chaungith tymes and ages, he translatith rewmes and ordeyneth; he yyueth wisdom to wise men, and kunnyng to hem that vndurstonden techyng, ether chastisyng;
Se Li menm ki chanje tan ak sikonstans yo. Li retire wa e Li etabli wa. Li bay sajès a moun saj yo, e konesans a moun ki gen bon konprann.
22 he schewith deepe thingis and hid, and he knowith thingis set in derknessis, and liyt is with hym.
Se Li menm ki revele sekre pwofond yo. Li fè parèt sa ki nan tenèb yo, e se limyè a ki rete avè L.
23 God of oure fadris, Y knowleche to thee, and Y herie thee, for thou hast youe wisdom and strengthe to me; and now thou hast schewid to me tho thingis, whiche we preieden thee, for thou hast openyd to vs the word of the kyng.
A Ou menm, O Bondye de papa zansèt mwen yo, mwen remèsi Ou. Mwen bay Ou lwanj, paske Ou te ban mwen sajès ak pouvwa. Menm koulye a, Ou te fè m konnen sa ke nou te mande Ou a, Paske Ou te revele a nou menm pwoblem a wa a.”
24 Aftir these thingis Danyel entride to Ariok, whom the kyng hadde ordeyned, that he schulde leese the wise men of Babiloyne, and thus he spak to hym, Leese thou not the wise men of Babiloyne; leede thou me in bifor the siyt of the kyng, and Y schal telle the soilyng to the kyng.
Akoz sa, Daniel te antre kote Ajoc, ke wa a te chwazi pou detwi mesye saj a Babylone yo. Li te antre e te pale avè l konsa: “Pa detwi mesye saj a Babylone yo! Pran m antre nan prezans a wa a, e mwen va deklare entèpretasyon an bay wa a.”
25 Thanne Ariok hastynge ledde in Danyel to the kyng, and seide to him, Y haue foundun a man of the sones of passyng ouer of Juda, that schal telle the soilyng to the kyng.
Konsa, Ajoc te mennen Daniel byen vit devan prezans a wa a, e li te pale avèk li konsa: “Mwen te twouve yon nonm pami egzile Juda yo ki kapab fè wa a konnen entèpretasyon an.”
26 The kyng answeride, and seide to Danyel, to whom the name was Balthasar, Whethir gessist thou, that thou maist verili schewe to me the dreem which Y siy, and the interpretyng therof?
Wa a te di a Daniel, ki te rele Beltschatsar: “Èske ou kapab fè m konnen rèv ke m te fè a, ak entèpretasyon li an?”
27 And Danyel answeride bifore the king, and seide, The priuytee which the kyng axith, wise men, and astronomyens, and dyuynours, and lokeris of auteris, moun not schewe to the kyng.
Daniel te reponn devan wa a. Li te di: “Konsènan mistè sou sila wa a te mande a, ni mesye saj yo, ni mèt zetwal yo, ni majisyen yo, ni divinò yo p ap kapab deklare sa a wa a.
28 But God is in heuene, that schewith priuytees, which hath schewid to thee, thou king Nabugodonosor, what thingis schulen come in the laste tymes. Thi dreem and visiouns of thin heed, in thi bed, ben sich.
Men gen yon Bondye nan syèl la ki devwale mistè yo, e Li te fè konnen a Wa Nebucadnetsar sa ki va rive nan dènye jou yo. Men rèv ak vizyon nan tèt ou yo sou kabann ou an, se konsa:
29 Thou, kyng, bigunnest to thenke in thi bed, what was to comynge aftir these thingis; and he that schewith priuetees, schewide to thee what thingis schulen come.
“Konsènan ou menm, o wa, pandan sou kabann ou an, refleksyon ou te vire vè sa ki ta vin rive nan tan ki gen pou vini yo. Epi Sila ki fè revelasyon mistè yo te fè ou konnen sa k ap vini yo.
30 And this sacrament is schewid to me, not bi wisdom which is in me more than in alle lyuynge men, but that the interpretyng schulde be maad opyn to the kyng, and thou schuldist knowe the thouytis of thi soule.
Men selon mwen menm, mistè sa a pa t revele a mwen menm akoz sajès ki plis pase tout lòt moun k ap viv yo, men pou bi ke entèpretasyon an ta kapab vin konnen a wa a, e ke ou ta ka konprann refleksyon a panse ou yo.
31 Thou, kyng, siyest, and lo! as o greet ymage; thilke ymage was greet, and hiy in stature, and stood bifore thee, and the loking therof was ferdful.
“Ou menm, O wa, ou t ap gade e vwala, te gen yon sèl gwo estati. Estati sa a, ki te byen laj e tèlman bèl, te kanpe devan ou e aparans li te etonan.
32 The heed of this ymage was of best gold, but the brest and armes weren of siluer; certis the wombe and thies weren of bras,
Tèt estati a an lò fen, lestomak ak bra li an ajan, vant li ak kwis li an bwonz,
33 but the leggis weren of irun; forsothe sum part of the feet was of irun, sum was of erthe.
janm li an fè, pye li, yon pati an fè e yon pati an ajil.
34 Thou siyest thus, til a stoon was kit doun of the hil, with outen hondis, and smoot the ymage in the irun feet therof and erthene feet, and al to-brak tho.
Ou te kontinye gade, jiskaske yon pyè wòch te taye san men moun, e li ta frape estati a sou pye li ki fèt an fè ak ajil la e li te kraze yo an mòso.
35 Thanne the irun, tijl stoon, ether erthene vessel, bras, siluer, and gold, weren al to-brokun togidere, and dryuun as in to a deed sparcle of a large somer halle, that ben rauyschid of wynd, and no place is foundun to tho; forsothe the stoon, that smoot the ymage, was maad a greet hil, and fillide al erthe.
Epi fè a, ajil la, bronz ak ajan an te vin kraze nan menm moman an e te vin tankou pay ki sòti sou glasi vannen nan gran sezon. Konsa, van te pote yo ale jiskaske yo pa t menm jwenn tras yo. Men wòch ki te frape estati a te vin fè yon gwo mòn, e te ranpli tout latè.
36 This is the dreem. Also, thou kyng, we schulen seie bifor thee the interpretyng therof.
“Se sa ki te rèv la. Konsa, nou va bay lentèpretasyon li devan wa a.
37 Thou art kyng of kyngis, and God of heuene yaf to thee rewme, strengthe, and empire, and glorie;
Ou menm, O wa, ou se wadèwa yo, a sila Bondye syèl la te bay wayòm nan, pouvwa, pwisans ak glwa a.
38 and he yaf in thin hond alle thingis, in whiche the sones of men, and the beestis of the feeld, and the briddis of the eir dwellen, and ordeynede alle thingis vndur thi lordschip; therfor thou art the goldun heed.
Epi nenpòt kote fis a lòm yo rete, oswa bèt nan chan yo, oswa zwazo syèl yo, Li te bay yo nan men ou, e Li te fè ou chèf sou yo. Ou se tèt an lò a.
39 And another rewme lesse than thou schal rise aftir thee; and the thridde rewme, an other of bras, that schal haue the empire of al erthe.
“Apre ou, va leve yon lòt wayòm ki enferyè a ou menm e yon lòt twazyèm ak bwonz, ki va renye sou tout latè.
40 And the fourthe rewme schal be as irun, as irun makith lesse, and makith tame alle thingis, so it schal make lesse, and schal al to-breke alle these rewmes.
Epi va gen yon katriyèm wayòm ak fòs tankou fè. Menm jan ke fè a kraze e fann tout bagay yo, konsa, tankou fè ki kraze vin fè anpil mòso yo, li va vin kraze e fann tout sila yo an mòso.
41 Forsothe that thou siest a part of the feet and fyngris of erthe of a pottere, and a part of irun, the rewme shal be departid; which netheles schal rise of the plauntyng of irun, `bi that that thou siest irun meynd with a tijl stoon of clei,
Nan sila ou te wè pye ak dwèt pye yo, yon pati an fè ak yon pati an ajil la, li va yon wayòm divize. Men li va genyen nan li kapasite pou vin di kon fè, jan ou te wè fè a mele ak ajil la.
42 and the toos of the feet in parti of irun, and in parti of erthe, in parti the rewme schal be sad, and in parti to-brokun.
Dwèt pye li yo te mele fè ak kanari; konsa, yon pati nan wayòm nan va fò e yon pati va frajil.
43 Forsothe that thou siest irun meynd with a tiel stoon of clei, sotheli tho schulen be meynd togidere with mannus seed; but tho schulen not cleue to hem silf, as irun mai not be meddlid with tyel stoon.
Epi jan ou te wè fè a mele ak ajil òdinè a, yo va vin mele youn ak lòt nan jèm a lòm; men yo p ap kole byen youn ak lòt, menm jan fè a pa mele ak kanari.
44 Forsothe in the daies of tho rewmes, God of heuene shal reise a rewme, that schal not be distried with outen ende, and his rewme schal not be youun to another puple; it schal make lesse, and schal waste alle these rewmes, and it schal stonde with outen ende,
“Nan jou a wa sila yo, Bondye syèl yo va etabli yon wayòm ki p ap janm detwi, e wayòm sa a p ap lese pou yon lòt pèp. Li va kraze e mete fen a tout wayòm sila yo, men li va, li menm dire pou tout tan.
45 bi this that thou siest, that a stoon was kit doun of the hil with outen hondis, and maad lesse the tiel stoon, and irun, and bras, and siluer, and gold. Greet God hath schewid to the kyng, what thingis schulen come aftirward; and the dreem is trewe, and the interpretyng therof is feithful.
Jan ou te wè ke yon wòch te taye sòti sou yon mòn san sèvi ak men moun e ke li te kraze fè a, bwonz lan, ajil la, ajan an, ak lò a gran Bondye a te fè konnen a wa a sa ki va rive nan tan k ap vini an. Donk, rèv la vrè e entèpretasyon li fèt ak fidelite.”
46 Thanne king Nabugodonosor felle doun on his face, and worschipide Danyel, and comaundide sacrifices and encense to be brouyt, that tho schulden be sacrifised to hym.
Konsa, Wa Nebucadnetsar te tonbe sou figi li. Li te rann omaj a Daniel e li te pase lòd pou prezante li ak yon ofrann ak lansan ki santi bon.
47 Therfor the kyng spak, and seide to Danyel, Verili youre God is God of goddis, and Lord of kyngis, that schewith mysteries, for thou miytist opene this sacrament.
Wa a te reponn Daniel. Li te di: “Anverite, Bondye ou a se yon Dye a tout dye yo, yon Senyè a wa yo, e youn ki devwale mistè yo; paske ou te vin gen kapasite pou revele mistè sila a.”
48 Thanne the kyng reiside Danyel an hiy, and yaf many yiftis and grete to hym; and ordeynede hym prince and prefect, ether cheef iustise, ouer alle the prouynces of Babiloyne, and maister ouer alle the wise men of Babiloyne.
Konsa, wa a te Leve Daniel, te bay li anpil gwo kado. Li te fè li chèf sou tout pwovens a Babylone yo, e li te vin chèf an tèt a tout mesye saj a Babylone yo.
49 Forsothe Danyel axide of the kyng, and ordeynede Sidrac, Misaac, and Abdenago ouer alle the werkis of the prouynce of Babiloyne; but Danyel hym silf was in the yatis of the kyng.
Daniel te fè yon demann a wa a, e wa a te chwazi Schadrac, Méschac ak Abed-Nego sou tout afè yo nan pwovens Babylone, men se te Daniel ki te rete nan pòtay a wa a.
