< Daniel 3 >

1 Nabugodonosor, the kyng, made a goldun ymage, in the heiythe of sixti cubitis, and in the breede of sixe cubitis; and he settide it in the feeld of Duram, of the prouynce of Babiloyne.
Nebokadnezara mpanjaka nanao sariolona volamena, enim-polo hakiho ny hahavony, ary enina hakiho ny sakany; dia natsangany teo amin’ ny tany lemaka Dora tamin’ ny fehin’ i Babylona izany.
2 Therfor Nabugodonosor sente to gadere togidere the wise men, magistratis, and iugis, and duykis, and tirauntis, and prefectis, and alle princes of cuntreis, that thei schulden come togidere to the halewyng of the ymage, which the kyng Nabugodonosor hadde reisid.
Ary Nebokadnezara mpanjaka naniraka nampamory ny solom-panjaka sy ny mpanapaka sy ny governora sy ny andriambaventy sy ny mpitahiry ny volam-panjakana sy ny mpahay lalàna sy ny mpitsara ary ny komandy isan-tokony mba hanamasina ilay sariolona efa natsangan’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka.
3 Thanne the wise men, magistratis, and iugis, and duykis, and tirauntis, and beste men, that weren set in poweris, and alle the princes of cuntreis, weren gaderid togidere, that thei schulden come togidere to the halewyng of the ymage, which the kyng Nabugodonosor hadde reisid. Forsothe thei stoden in the siyt of the ymage, which Nabugodonosor hadde set; and a bedele criede myytili,
Dia nivory hanamasina ny sariolona izay efa natsangan’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjakan’ ny solom-panjaka sy ny mpanapaka sy ny governora sy ny andriambaventy sy ny mpitahiry ny volam-panjakana sy ny mpahay lalàna sy ny mpitsara ary ny komandy isan-tokony, ka dia nitsangana tandrifin’ ny sariolona izay efa natsangan’ i Nebokadnezara ireo.
4 It is seid to you, puplis, kynredis, and langagis;
Ary dia nisy mpikabary niantso mafy hoe: Izao no lazaina aminareo, ry fokom-pirenena, ry firenena sy samy hafa fiteny:
5 in the our in which ye heren the soun of trumpe, and of pipe, and of harpe, of sambuke, of sawtre, and of symphonye, and of al kynde of musikis, falle ye doun, and worschipe the goldun ymage, which the kyng Nabugodonosor made.
Rehefa mandre ny fanenon’ ny anjomara sy ny sobaba sy ny lokanga sy ny samboka sy ny valiha sy ny symponia ary ny zava-maneno isan-karazany ianareo, dia miankohofa, ka mivavaha amin’ ny sariolona volamena izay efa natsangan’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka,
6 Sotheli if ony man fallith not doun, and worschipith not, in the same our he schal be sent in to the furneis of fier brennynge.
ary na iza na iza no tsy miankohoka sy tsy mivavaka dia hatsipy miaraka amin’ izay ho ao anatin’ ny lafaoro misy afo mirehitra.
7 Therfor aftir these thingis, anoon as alle puplis herden the sown of trumpe, of pipe, and of harpe, of sambuke, and of sawtre, of symphonye, and of al kynde of musikis, alle puplis, lynagis, and langagis fellen doun, and worschipiden the golden ymage, which the kyng Nabugodonosor hadde maad.
Koa tamin’ ny fotoana nandrenesan’ ny fokom-pirenena rehetra ny fanenon’ ny anjomara sy ny sobaba sy ny lokanga sy ny samboka sy ny valiha ary ny zava-maneno isan-karazany, dia niankohoka sy nivavaka tamin’ ny sariolona volamena izay efa natsangan’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka ny fokom-pirenena sy ny firenena ary ny samy hafa fiteny rehetra.
8 And anoon in that tyme men of Caldee neiyiden, and accusiden the Jewis,
Ary tamin’ izay dia nisy Kaldeana sasany nanatona ka niampanga ny Jiosy.
9 and seiden to the kyng Nabugodonosor, Kyng, lyue thou with outen ende.
Dia niteny izy ka nanao tamin’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka hoe: Ry mpanjaka ô, ho velona mandrakizay anie ianao.
10 Thou, kyng, hast set a decree, that ech man that herith the sown of trumpe, of pipe, and of harpe, of sambuke, and of sawtree, and of symphonye, and of al kynde of musikis, bowe doun hym silf, and worschipe the goldun ymage; forsothe if ony man fallith not doun,
Ry mpanjaka ô, ianao efa nanao lalàna fa ny olona rehetra izay mandre ny fanenon’ ny anjomara sy ny sobaba sy ny lokanga sy ny samboka sy ny valiha sy ny symponia ary ny zava-maneno isan-karazany dia hiankohoka hivavaka amin’ ny sariolona volamena;
11 and worschipith not, be he sent in to the furneis of fier brennynge.
fa izay tsy miankohoka sy tsy mivavaka kosa dia hatsipy ao anatin’ ny lafaoro misy afo mirehitra.
12 Therfor men Jewis ben, Sidrac, Mysaac, and Abdenago, whiche thou hast ordeynede on the werkis of the cuntrei of Babiloyne. Thou kyng, these men han dispisid thi decree; thei onouren not thi goddis, and thei worshipen not the goldun ymage, which thou reisidist.
Koa misy Jiosy izay nataonao ho tonian’ ny raharaha amin’ i Babylona sy ny fehiny, dia Sadraka sy Mesaka ary Abednego; ireo lehilahy ireo tsy mba manaiky ny teninao akory, ry mpanjaka ô: tsy mba manompo ny andriamanitrao izy, na mivavaka amin’ ny sariolona volamena izay efa natsanganao.
13 Thanne Nabugodonosor comaundide, in woodnesse and in wraththe, that Sidrac, Mysaac, and Abdenago schulden be brouyt; whiche weren brouyt anoon in the siyt of the kyng.
Dia niteny tamin’ ny fahavinirana sy ny fahatezerana Nebokadnezara, ka nasainy nalaina Sadraka sy Mesaka ary Abednego. Dia nentiny teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka ireo lehilahy ireo.
14 And the kyng Nabugodonosor pronounside, and seide to hem, Whether verili Sidrac, Mysaac, and Abdenago, ye onouren not my goddis, and worschipen not the golden ymage, which Y made?
Dia niteny Nebokadnezara ka nanao taminy hoe: Moa fanahy ninianareo va, ry Sadraka sy Mesaka sy Abednego, no tsy mba anompoanareo ny andriamanitro, na ivavahanareo amin’ ny sariolona volamena izay natsangako?
15 Now therfor be ye redi, in what euer our ye heren the sown of trumpe, of pipe, of harpe, of sambuke, of sawtree, and of symphonye, and of al kynde of musikis, bowe ye doun you, and worschipe the ymage which Y made; that if ye worschipen not, in the same our ye schulen be sent in to the furneis of fier brennynge; and who is God, that schal delyuere you fro myn hond?
Ankehitriny raha miomana ianareo amin’ izay handrenesanareo ny fanenon’ ny anjomara sy ny samboka sy ny valiha sy ny symponia sy ny Sobaba sy ny lokanga ary ny zava-maneno isan-karazany ka miankohoka sy mivavaka amin’ ny sariolona izay nataoko, dia tsara izany; fa raha tsy mety mivavaka kosa ianareo, dia hatsipy miaraka amin’ izay ho ao anatin’ ny lafaoro misy afo mirehitra; ary iza moa izany Andriamanitra hahavonjy anareo amin’ ny tanako izany?
16 Sidrac, Misaac, and Abdenago answeriden, and seiden to the king Nabugodonosor, It nedith not, that we answere of this thing to thee.
Dia namaly Sadraka sy Mesaka ary Abednego ka nanao tamin’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Ry Nebokadnezara, tsy misy antony tokony hamalianay anao akory ny amin’ izany zavatra izany.
17 For whi oure God, whom we worschipen, mai rauysche vs fro the chymenei of fier brennynge, and mai delyuere fro thin hondis, thou kyng.
Indro, Andriamanitra Izay tompoinay dia mahavonjy anay amin’ ny lafaoro misy afo mirehitra sady hamonjy anay amin’ ny tananao, ry mpanjaka ô.
18 That if he nyle, be it knowun to thee, thou kyng, that we onouren not thi goddis, and we worschipen not the goldun ymage, which thou hast reisid.
Ary na dia tsy izany aza, aoka ho fantatrao, ry mpanjaka ô, fa ny andriamanitrao dia tsy hotompoinay, ary ny sariolona volamena efa natsanganao dia tsy hivavahanay.
19 Thanne Nabugodonosor was fillid of woodnesse, and the biholdyng of his face was chaungid on Sidrac, Misaac, and Abdenago. And he comaundide, that the furneis schulde be maad hattere seuenfold, than it was wont to be maad hoot.
Dia feno fahatezerana Nebokadnezara, ka niova ny tarehiny tamin’ i Sadraka sy Mesaka ary Abednego, dia nasainy nafanaina ho impito mihoatra noho ny famana azy ny lafaoro.
20 And he comaundide to the strongeste men of his oost, that thei schulden bynde the feet of Sidrac, Mysaac, and Abdenago, and sende hem in to the furneis of fier brennynge.
Ary izay lehilahy matanjaka indrindra tamin’ ny miaramilany no nasainy namatotra an’ i Sadraka sy Mesaka ary Abednego sy nanipy azy tao anatin’ ny lafaoro nisy afo mirehitra.
21 And anoon tho men weren boundun, with brechis, and cappis, and schoon, and clothis, and weren sent in to the myddis of the furneis of fier brennynge;
Dia nafatotra ireo lehilahy ireo, nefa mbola teny aminy ihany ny lobany sy ny akanjony ary ny kapitiny mbamin’ ny fitafiany hafa koa, ka dia natsipy teo anatin’ ny lafaoro nisy afo mirehitra izy;
22 for whi comaundement of the kyng constreinede. Forsothe the furneis was maad ful hoot; certis the flawme of the fier killid tho men, that hadden sent Sidrac, Misaac, and Abdenago in to the furneis.
ary satria mafy ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka, ka natao mahamay indrindra ny lafaoro, dia matin’ ny lelafo ireny lehilahy izay nanipy an’ i Sadraka sy Mesaka sy Abednego.
23 Sotheli these thre men, Sidrac, Misaac, and Abdenago, fellen doun boundun in the mydis of the chymenei of fier brennynge.
Ary izy telo lahy ireo, Sadraka sy Mesaka sy Abednego, dia voatsipy am-patorana teo anatin’ ny lafaoro nisy afo mirehitra.
24 Thanne kyng Nabugodonosor was astonyed, and roos hastily, and seide to hise beste men, Whether we senten not thre men feterid in to the myddis of the fier? Whiche answeriden the kyng, and seiden, Verili, kyng.
Dia talanjona Nebokadnezara mpanjaka ary nitsangana faingana izy ka niteny tamin’ ny mpanolo-tsainy hoe: Moa tsy telo lahy mifatotra va no natsipintsika tao anatin’ ny afo? Dia namaly ny mpanjaka ireo ka nanao hoe: Marina izany, ry mpanjaka ô.
25 The kyng answeride, and seide, Lo! Y se foure men vnboundun, and goynge in the myddis of the fier, and no thing of corrupcioun is in hem; and the licnesse of the fourthe is lijk the sone of God.
Ary hoy izy: Ka no indro aho mahita efa-dahy tsy mifatotra, mandehandeha eo anaty afo, nefa tsy maninona tsy maninona akory izy; ary ny fijery ilay fahefatra dia toa zanak’ ireo andriamanitra.
26 Thanne the kyng Nabugodonosor neiyide to the dore of the furneis of fier brennynge, and seide, Sidrac, Mysaac, and Abdenago, the seruauntis of hiy God lyuynge, go ye out, and come ye. And anoon Sidrac, Mysaac, and Abdenago, yeden out of the myddis of the fier.
Dia nanatona ny varavaran’ ny lafaoro nisy afo mirehitra Nebokadnezara ka niantso hoe: Ry Sadraka sy Mesaka sy Abednego, mpanompon’ Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra, mivoaha, ka avia atỳ. Dia nivoaka avy teo anatin’ ny afo Sadraka sy Mesaka ary Abednego.
27 And the wise men, and magistratis, and iugis, and miyti men of the kyng, weren gaderid togidere, and bihelden tho men, for the fier hadde had no thing of power in the bodies of hem, and an heer of her heed was not brent; also the breechis of hem weren not chaungid, and the odour of fier hadde not passid bi hem.
Dia nifanatona ny solo-mpanjaka sy ny mpanapaka sy ny governora ary ny mpanolotsain’ ny mpanjaka ka nahita ireo lehilahy ireo, fa tsy nanan-kery hampaninona ny tenany akory ny afo, na nisy singam-bolo nikainkona tamin’ ny lohany, na niova ny lobany, ary tsy nisy fofon’ afo akory taminy.
28 And Nabugodonosor brac out, and seide, Blessid be the God of hem, that is, of Sidrac, Mysaac, and Abdenago, that sente his aungel, and delyueride hise seruauntis, that bileuyden in to hym, and chaungiden the word of the kyng, and yauen her bodies, that thei schulden not serue, and that thei schulden not worschipe ony god, outakun her God aloone.
Nebokadnezara niteny ka nanao hoe: Isaorana anie Andriamanitr’ i Sadraka sy Mesaka sy Abednego, Izay naniraka ny anjeliny hamonjy ny mpanompony izay natoky Azy ka nandika ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka ary nanolotra ny tenany tsy hanompo na hivavaka amin’ izay andriamani-kafa, afa-tsy Andriamaniny ihany.
29 Therfor this decree is set of me, that ech puple, and langagis, and lynagis, who euer spekith blasfemye ayen God of Sidrac, and of Mysaac, and of Abdenago, perische, and his hous be distried; for noon other is God, that mai saue so.
Ka dia manao lalàna aho fa ny fokom-pirenena sy ny firenena sy ny samy hafa fiteny rehetra izay manao teny tsy mety ny amin’ Andriamanitr’ i Sadraka sy Mesaka sy Abednego dia hotetitetehina, ary hatao trano fivoahana ny tranony; fa tsy misy andriamani-kafa mahavonjy tahaka izao.
30 Thanne the kyng auaunside Sidrac, Mysaac, and Abdenago, in the prouynce of Babiloyne; and sente in to al the lond a pistle, conteynynge these wordis.
Ary Sadraka sy Mesaka sy Abednego dia nasandratry ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Babylona sy ny fehiny.
