Daniel 4
1 'Nebuchadnezzar the king to all peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the earth: Your peace be great!
Kai Nebukhadnezar ni lawk na patawn awh. Talaivan kho tangkuem kaawm e miphun cawngca hoi lawk cawngca kapan e taminaw nangmouh koe lungmawngnae pungdaw seh.
2 The signs and wonders that God Most High hath done with me, it is good before me to shew.
Lathueng poung lah kaawm e Cathut ni kai dawk a sak e kângairu hno hoi mitnoutnae naw hah kamnue sak hanelah ka ngai.
3 His signs how great! and His wonders how mighty! His kingdom [is] a kingdom age-during, and His rule [is] with generation and generation.
Mitnout teh a len tangngak. Athaonae teh kângairu han lah ao tangngak. A uknaeram teh catounawtoun totouh kangning e lah ao.
4 'I, Nebuchadnezzar, have been at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace:
Kai Nebukhadnezar teh kama e siangpahrang im dawk tawnta bawirengnae hoi ka o navah,
5 a dream I have seen, and it maketh me afraid, and the conceptions on my bed, and the visions of my head, do trouble me.
takikathopounge mang ka mang e hah ikhun dawk ka yannae koehoi ka pouk navah, ka taki toungloung.
6 And by me a decree is made, to cause all the wise men of Babylon to come up before me, that the interpretation of the dream they may cause me to know.
Hatdawkvah ka mang leh hanelah Babilon ram e a lungkaang e pueng ka hmalah koung thokhai awh titeh ka pathang.
7 Then coming up are the scribes, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers, and the dream I have told before them, and its interpretation they are not making known to me.
Hatnavah, mitpaleikathoumnaw, kutkhetkathoumnaw, Babilon kacangkhaikungnaw, hoi Khaldeannaw pueng a tho awh teh, ka mang hah ka dei pouh. Hatei, ahnimanaw ni ka mang hah let thai awh hoeh.
8 And at last come up before me hath Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar — according to the name of my god — and in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods, and the dream before him I have told:
A hnukkhu vah, kaie cathut min ka phawt e Belteshazzar telah phung teh, Cathut e kathoung muitha hoi kakawi e Daniel ni kai koe a tho torei teh,
9 'O Belteshazzar, master of the scribes, as I have known that the spirit of the holy gods [is] in thee, and no secret doth press thee, the visions of my dream that I have seen, and its interpretation, tell.
mitpaleikathoumnaw kahrawikung Belteshazzar nang dawk kathounge Cathut Muitha ao tie thoseh, hrolawk kaawm e pueng na pâpho thai e hai thoseh ka panue. Hatdawkvah, mang ka mang e hah na pâpho pouh haw.
10 As to the visions of my head on my bed, I was looking, and lo, a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height [is] great:
Ka ikhun dawk ka yan nah ka hmu e vision teh, talai lungui vah, karasangpoung e thingkung buet touh a kâung.
11 become great hath the tree, yea, strong, and its height doth reach to the heavens, and its vision to the end of the whole land;
Hote thingkung teh a roung teh a thao poung. Kalvan a deng teh, talai van pueng koehoi hmu e thai e lah ao.
12 its leaves [are] fair, and its budding great, and food for all [is] in it: under it take shade doth the beast of the field, and in its boughs dwell do the birds of the heavens, and of it fed are all flesh.
A hna hai a meihawi. Moithang pueng ni ca khuem hane paw hoi akawi. Talai e saringnaw teh hote thingkung tâhlip dawk a kâhat awh, tavanaw ni a kangnaw dawk a kâhat awh.
13 'I was looking, in the visions of my head on my bed, and lo, a sifter, even a holy one, from the heavens is coming down.
Ka ikhun dawk ka yan lahun nah ka hmu e vision teh bout ka khet navah, thingkung ka ring e tami kathoung buet touh kalvan hoi a kum.
14 He is calling mightily, and thus hath said, Cut down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its budding, move away let the beast from under it, and the birds from off its branches;
Thingkung hah tâtueng haw. Akangnaw hah rabat haw. A hna, a pawnaw hah pahroe haw. Saringnaw ni thingkung rahim hoi tâcawt awh naseh. Tavanaw hai akangnaw dawk hoi tâcawt awh naseh.
15 but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens is it wet, and with the beasts [is] his portion in the herb of the earth;
Hateiteh, a tangpha hoi a thongmui teh pâhlung haw. Sumrui, rahum rui hoi pâkhit nateh, hram kanaw um vah awm naseh. Kum sari touh thung khoraum ao vaiteh, saringnaw hoi cungtalah hram cat naseh.
16 his heart from man's is changed, and the heart of a beast is given to him, and seven times pass over him;
Tami lungthin kahmat naseh. Saring lungthin tawn naseh.
17 by the decree of the sifters [is] the sentence, and by the saying of the holy ones the requirement, to the intent that the living may know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He willeth He giveth it, and the lowest of men He doth raise up over it.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a Lathueng Poung e Cathut ni talai uknaeram a uk tie thoseh, a poe ngai e tami koe a poe tie hai thoseh, ka rahnoum poung e tami hah a tawm teh ram hah a poe tie hai thoseh, moithangnaw ni a panue thai nahanlah thingkung karingkungnaw ni hettelah a sak awh toe. Tami kathoung naw ni kâ a poe toe telah a ti.
18 'This dream I have seen, I king Nebuchadnezzar; and thou, O Belteshazzar, the interpretation tell, because that all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to cause me to know the interpretation, and thou [art] able, for the spirit of the holy gods [is] in thee.
Hottelah Nebukhadnezar siangpahrang ni mang ka mang toe. Nang Belteshazzar ka hmu e mang hah atuvah na deicai pouh haw. Kaie uknaeram dawk e a lungkaangnaw ni decai thai awh hoeh eiteh, nang teh kathounge Cathut Muitha hoi na kawi dawkvah, na pâpho thai telah ka hmu e mang hah Daniel koe ka dei pouh.
19 'Then Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar, hath been astonished about one hour, and his thoughts do trouble him; the king hath answered and said, O Belteshazzar, let not the dream and its interpretation trouble thee. Belteshazzar hath answered and said, My lord, the dream — to those hating thee, and its interpretation — to thine enemies!
Hat toteh, Belteshazzar telah phung e Daniel teh, suimilam buet touh hane muen a kângai teh a lungpuen. Siangpahrang ni, nang Belteshazzar, mang hoi deingainae dawk na lungpuen sak hanh atipouh. Belteshazzar ni Bawipa, nang na kahmawt ngai hoeh e naw koe mang deingainae teh phat lawiseh.
20 The tree that thou hast seen, that hath become great and strong, and its height doth reach to the heavens, and its vision to all the land,
Na hmu lahun nah karoung niteh, a tha kaawm poung e, kalvan ka deng niteh, talai van puenghoi hmu thai e,
21 and its leaves [are] fair, and its budding great, and food for all [is] in it, under it dwell doth the beast of the field, and on its boughs sit do the birds of the heavens.
a hna hai a meikahawi niteh, moithang pueng ni cakhuem e a paw hoi kakawi e, talai e saringnaw ni a rahim vah ao awh teh, tavanaw ni a kang dawk kâhatnae thingkung hateh,
22 'Thou it [is], O king, for thou hast become great and mighty, and thy greatness hath become great, and hath reached to the heavens, and thy dominion to the end of the earth;
Bawipa nang nama roeroe doeh toe. Nang teh na roung, thaonae hoi na kawi. Lentoe tawntanae teh kalvan kadeng lah ao. Kâ na tawnnae teh talai pout totouh a pha.
23 and that which the king hath seen — a sifter, even a holy one, coming down from the heavens, and he hath said, Cut down the tree, and destroy it; but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens it is wet, and with the beast of the field [is] his portion, till that seven times pass over him.
Thingkung ka ring e tami kathoung buet touh kalvan hoi ka kum niteh, thingkung hah tâtueng nateh raphoe haw. Hatei a tangpha hoi a thongmui hah pâhlung nateh, sumrui, rahumrui hoi katek nateh, hram kanaw um vah awm naseh. Kum sari touh thung khoraum awm naseh. Talai e saringnaw hoi rei awm naseh tie teh,
24 'This [is] the interpretation, O king, and the decree of the Most High it [is] that hath come against my lord the king:
A lathueng poung e Cathut ni siangpahrang nang koe a pha sak e mang deicainae teh,
25 and they are driving thee away from men, and with the beast of the field is thy dwelling, and the herb as oxen they do cause thee to eat, and by the dew of the heavens they are wetting thee, and seven times do pass over thee, till that thou knowest that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He willeth He giveth it.
Nang hah tami um hoi na pâlei teh, talai saringnaw hoi reirei na o han. A Lathueng Poung e Cathut ni telah uknaeram hah a uk dawkvah, poe a ngai e taminaw koe a poe e hah na panue hoehnahlan kum sari touh thung maito patetlah hram na ca vaiteh, khoraum na o han.
26 And that which they said — to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; thy kingdom for thee abideth, after that thou knowest that the heavens are ruling.
Thing tangpha, thingthawngmui a pâhlung e teh, Kalvan ni a uk tie na panue hnukkhu, uknaeram hateh, na kut dawk bout poe lah ao han.
27 'Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and thy sins by righteousness break off, and thy perversity by pitying the poor, lo, it is a lengthening of thine ease.
Hatdawkvah siangpahrang kaie lawk hah thai haw. Na tawnta e kasaw lah kangning thai nahan, na yonnae hah lannae lah, na hawihoehnae hah roedengnaw pahrennae lah let palang leih telah atipouh.
28 'All — hath come on Nebuchadnezzar the king.
Hote hnopueng Nebukhadnezar siangpahrang koe a phanae kong teh hettelah ao.
29 'At the end of twelve months, on the palace of the kingdom of Babylon he hath been walking;
Thapa yung 12 apoutnae dawk siangpahrang teh, Babilon im vah a kâhlai.
30 the king hath answered and said, Is not this that great Babylon that I have built, for the house of the kingdom, in the might of my strength, and for the glory of mine honour?
Siangpahrang ni, hete khopui teh, ka ram a kamtuenae, ka bawilen taluenae tawm nahanlah ka bahu hoi ka sak e Babilon khopui nahoehmaw telah a ti.
31 'While the word is [in] the king's mouth a voice from the heavens hath fallen: To thee they are saying: O Nebuchadnezzar the king, the kingdom hath passed from thee,
Hote lawk a dei lahunnah, kalvan hoi ka tho e lawk teh Oe, Nebukhadnezar siangpahrang, thai haw. Na uknaeram teh na kut dawk hoi takhoe lah ao toe.
32 and from men they are driving thee away, and with the beast of the field [is] thy dwelling, the herb as oxen they do cause thee to eat, and seven times do pass over thee, till that thou knowest that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He willeth He giveth it.
Nang hah taminaw umsali hoi na pâlei vaiteh, talai saringnaw hoi reirei na o han. A Lathueng Poung ni talai uknaeram hah a uk teh, a poe ngai e tami a poe e hah na panuehoenae tueng, kum sari touh thung maito patetlah hram na ca han telah a ti.
33 'In that hour the thing hath been fulfilled on Nebuchadnezzar, and from men he is driven, and the herb as oxen he eateth, and by the dew of the heavens his body is wet, till that his hair as eagles' hath become great, and his nails as birds.'
Hote lawk patetlah Nebukhadnezar dawk vaitalahoi a tho teh, tami umsali hoi a pâlei awh. Maito patetlah hram a ca teh, khoraum vah ao. A takmuennaw teh mataw rathei patetlah ao teh, a khokpatinnaw teh tava khokpatin patetlah ao pouh.
34 'And at the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, mine eyes to the heavens have lifted up, and mine understanding unto me returneth, and the Most High I have blessed, and the Age-during Living One I have praised and honoured, whose dominion [is] a dominion age-during, and His kingdom with generation and generation;
Atueng akuep toteh, kai Nebukhadnezar teh kalvan lah ka moung navah, bout ka kâpanue teh, a yungyoe kahring e Cathut hah ka pholen, barinae ka poe teh, ka lentoe sak. Kâ tawnnae teh a yungyoe e doeh. A uknaeram teh a yungyoe a kangning.
35 and all who are dwelling on the earth as nothing are reckoned, and according to his will He is doing among the forces of the heavens and those dwelling on the earth, and there is none that doth clap with his hand, and saith to Him, What hast Thou done?
Talai tami pueng teh, banghai bang hoeh lah ao awh. Kalvan ransanaw koehai thoseh, talai taminaw koehai thoseh, a ngai e patetlah a sak. Apinihai a kut hah ngang thai awh hoeh. Bangmouh na sak ka tet pouh thai e apihai awm hoeh.
36 'At that time my understanding doth return unto me, and for the glory of my kingdom, my honour and my brightness doth return unto me, and to me my counsellors and my great men do seek, and over my kingdom I have been made right, and abundant greatness hath been added to me.
Hat toteh, ka lungthin amahmoe lah bout ao. Kaie uknaeram bawilennae nahanlah bari onae hoi, raimonae teh kai koe bout a ban. Kho kapoukkungnaw hoi bawinaw ni bout na hnai awh teh, ka uknae casak lah ao teh, puenghoi taluenae hai ahmaloe e hlak hoe a len.
37 'Now, I, Nebuchadnezzar, am praising and exalting and honouring the King of the heavens, for all His works [are] truth, and His paths judgment, and those walking in pride He is able to humble.'
Atuteh, kai Nebukhadnezar ni kalvan siangpahrang hah ka pholen teh, ka tawm teh ka lentoe sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a sak e hno pueng teh a thuem, a lamthung teh a lan. Kâoup laihoi kho ka sak e pueng teh rahim lah a pabo tie hah kho tangkuem a pathang.
