Daniel 5
1 Belshazzar the king hath made a great feast to a thousand of his great men, and before the thousand he is drinking wine;
Atĩrĩrĩ, Mũthamaki Belishazaru nĩarugithĩirie andũ ake ngiri ĩmwe arĩa maarĩ igweta iruga inene, nake akĩnyuuanĩra ndibei nao.
2 Belshazzar hath said — while tasting the wine — to bring in the vessels of gold and of silver that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken from the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, that drink with them may the king, and his great men, his wives, and his concubines.
Rĩrĩa Belishazaru aanyuuaga ndibei yake, agĩathana ikombe cia thahabu na cia betha, iria ithe Nebukadinezaru aatahĩte akaruta hekarũ-inĩ Jerusalemu, irehwo nĩgeetha mũthamaki, na andũ ake arĩa maarĩ igweta, na atumia ake na thuriya ciake manyue nacio.
3 Then they have brought in the vessels of gold that had been taken out of the temple of the house of God that [is] in Jerusalem, and drunk with them have the king and his great men, his wives and his concubines;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩrehe ikombe icio cia thahabu iria ciatahĩtwo ikarutwo hekarũ-inĩ ya Ngai kũu Jerusalemu. Nake mũthamaki, na andũ ake acio maarĩ igweta, na atumia ake, na thuriya ciake makĩnyua nacio.
4 they have drunk wine, and have praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
Nao maanyuuaga ndibei, makĩgoocaga ngai cia thahabu, na cia betha, na cia gĩcango, na cia kĩgera, na cia mĩtĩ, na cia mahiga.
5 In that hour come forth have fingers of a man's hand, and they are writing over-against the candlestick, on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king is seeing the extremity of the hand that is writing;
Na rĩrĩ, o rĩmwe hakĩoneka ciara cia guoko kwa mũndũ ikĩandĩka rũthingo-inĩ rwa nyũmba ĩyo ya ũthamaki hakuhĩ na mũtĩ ũrĩa wa kũigĩrĩra tawa. Nake mũthamaki akĩona guoko kũu gũkĩandĩka.
6 then the king's countenance hath changed, and his thoughts do trouble him, and the joints of his loins are loosed, and his knees are smiting one against another.
Nake mũthamaki agĩthita gĩthiithi na akĩmaka mũno, nginya maru make makĩgũthana, na akĩremwo nĩkũrũgama na magũrũ make.
7 Call doth the king mightily, to bring up the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. Answered hath the king, and said to the wise men of Babylon, that, 'Any man who doth read this writing, and its interpretation doth shew me, purple he putteth on, and a bracelet of gold [is] on his neck, and third in the kingdom he doth rule.'
Mũthamaki akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga aragũri, na arori a njata, na arathi a mohoro mareehwo nake akĩĩra andũ acio oogĩ a Babuloni atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa wothe ũngĩthoma maandĩko maya na anjĩĩre ũrĩa moigĩte, nĩekũhumbwo nguo cia rangi wa ndathi, na ekĩrwo kĩrengeeri gĩa thahabu ngingo, na nĩegũtuuo mwathani wa gatatũ ũthamaki-inĩ ũyũ.”
8 Then coming up are all the wise men of the king, and they are not able to read the writing, and the interpretation to make known to the king;
Nao andũ a mũthamaki arĩa oogĩ othe magĩtoonya kuo, no matiahotire gũthoma maandĩko macio kana kwĩra mũthamaki ũrĩa moigĩte.
9 then the king Belshazzar is greatly troubled, and his countenance is changing in him, and his great men are perplexed.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mũthamaki Belishazaru agĩkĩrĩrĩria kũmaka, na gĩthiithi gĩake gĩgĩthita makĩria. Andũ ake acio maarĩ igweta makĩrigwo nĩ ũrĩa mangĩĩka.
10 The queen, on account of the words of the king and his great men, to the banquet-house hath come up. Answered hath the queen, and said, 'O king, to the ages live; let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor thy countenance be changed:
Mũtumia wa mũthamaki rĩrĩa aiguire inegene rĩa mũthamaki na andũ acio ake maarĩ igweta agĩtoonya nyũmba ĩyo yarĩ na iruga. Akĩĩra mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Wee mũthamaki, ũrotũũra nginya tene! Tiga kũmaka o na kana ũtukie gĩthiithi nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro ũyũ!
11 there is a man in thy kingdom in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods: and, in the days of thy father, light, and understanding, and wisdom — as the wisdom of the gods — was found in him; and king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, chief of the scribes, enchanters, Chaldeans, soothsayers, established him — thy father, O king —
Ũthamaki-inĩ waku nĩ kũrĩ mũndũ ũkoragwo na roho wa ngai iria theru thĩinĩ wake. Matukũ-inĩ ma thoguo-rĩ, nĩonekire arĩ na meciiria marĩ na ũtaũku na ũmenyi o ta wa ngai icio. Thoguo, Mũthamaki Nebukadinezaru, (ndĩrakwĩra ũhoro wa thoguo mũthamaki, ) nĩamũtuire mũnene wa aragũri, na arori a njata, na arathi a mohoro.
12 because that an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and showing of enigmas, and loosing of knots was found in him, in Daniel, whose name the king made Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and the interpretation he doth show.'
Mũndũ ũcio Danieli, na nĩwe mũthamaki eetire Beliteshazaru, nĩonekire arĩ na meciiria makuũku, na ũmenyo, na ũtaũku, o na ningĩ ũhoti wa gũtaũra irooto, na gũtaarĩria ndaĩ, na gũtuithania maũndũ marĩa maritũ. Tũmana Danieli etwo na nĩegũkwĩra ũrĩa maandĩko macio moigĩte.”
13 Then Daniel hath been caused to come up before the king; answered hath the king, and said to Daniel, 'Thou art that Daniel who [art] of the sons of the Removed of Judah, whom the king my father brought in out of Judah?
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Danieli akĩrehwo mbere ya mũthamaki, nake mũthamaki akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Danieli, ũmwe wa andũ arĩa baba, ũrĩa warĩ mũthamaki aarehire gũkũ matahĩtwo kuuma Juda?
14 And I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods [is] in thee, and light, and understanding, and excellent wisdom have been found in thee.
Nĩnjiguĩte atĩ ũrĩ na roho wa ngai iria theru thĩinĩ waku na atĩ ũrĩ na ũtaũku, na ũhoti wa gwĩciiria na ũũgĩ wa mwanya.
15 'And now, caused to come up before me have been the wise men, the enchanters, that this writing they may read, and its interpretation to cause me to know: and they are not able to shew the interpretation of the thing:
Andũ arĩa oogĩ na aragũri nĩmekũrehetwo harĩ niĩ mathome maandĩko maya manjĩĩre ũrĩa moigĩte, no matinahota kũmataarĩria.
16 and I — I have heard of thee, that thou art able to give interpretations, and to loose knots: now, lo — thou art able to read the writing, and its interpretation to cause me to know — purple thou dost put on, and a bracelet of gold [is] on thy neck, and third in the kingdom thou dost rule.'
Rĩu nĩnjiguĩte atĩ wee no ũhote gũtaũra na kũhĩngĩcanũra maũndũ marĩa maritũ. Ũngĩhota gũthoma maandĩko maya na ũnjĩĩre ũrĩa moigĩte-rĩ, nĩũkũhumbwo nguo ya rangi wa ndathi, na wĩkĩrwo kĩrengeeri gĩa thahabu ngingo, na ũtuuo mwathani wa gatatũ ũthamaki-inĩ ũyũ.”
17 Then hath Daniel answered and said before the king, 'Thy gifts be to thyself, and thy fee to another give; nevertheless, the writing I do read to the king, and the interpretation I cause him to know;
Nake Danieli agĩcookeria mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Iheo icio ciaku ikara nacio arĩ we, namo marĩhi maku ũmahe mũndũ ũngĩ. No o na gũkĩrĩ ũguo-rĩ, nĩngũthomera mũthamaki maandĩko macio, na ndĩmwĩre ũrĩa moigĩte.
18 thou, O king, God Most High, a kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and honour, gave to Nebuchadnezzar thy father:
“Atĩrĩrĩ, wee mũthamaki, Ngai-Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno nĩaheire thoguo Nebukadinezaru wathani, na ũnene, na riiri, na ũkaru.
19 and because of the greatness that He gave to him, all peoples, nations, and languages were trembling and fearing before him: whom he willed he was slaying, and whom he willed he was keeping alive, and whom he willed he was raising up, and whom he willed he was making low;
Nĩ ũndũ wa kũmũtũgĩria ũguo-rĩ, andũ othe, na ndũrĩrĩ ciothe, na andũ a mĩario yothe nĩmainainaga marĩ mbere yake na makamwĩtigĩra. Andũ arĩa mũthamaki angĩendire mooragwo nĩamooragithagia; arĩa angĩendire kũhonokia mĩoyo yao, nĩamahonokagia; arĩa angĩendire gũtũũgĩria, nĩamatũgagĩria; nao arĩa angĩendire kũnyiihia, nĩamanyiihagia.
20 and when his heart was high, and his spirit was strong to act proudly, he hath been caused to come down from the throne of his kingdom, and his glory they have caused to pass away from him,
No rĩrĩa ngoro yake yanyiitirwo nĩ mwĩgaatho na akĩũmio ngoro nĩ mwĩtĩĩo, nĩarutirwo gĩtĩ-inĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene na akĩaũrwo riiri wake.
21 and from the sons of men he is driven, and his heart with the beasts hath been like, and with the wild asses [is] his dwelling; the herb like oxen they cause him to eat, and by the dew of the heavens is his body wet, till that he hath known that God Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and whom He willeth He raiseth up over it.
Akĩingatwo akĩeherio kuuma kũrĩ andũ, na akĩgarũrwo akĩgĩa na meciiria ta ma nyamũ, agĩtũũrania na njagĩ cia werũ-inĩ, na akĩrĩa nyeki ta ngʼombe; naguo mwĩrĩ wake waihũgagio nĩ ime riumĩte igũrũ, nginya rĩrĩa aamenyire atĩ Ngai-Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno nĩwe wathaga mothamaki ma andũ, na nĩwe ũmaheanaga kũrĩ o ũrĩa angĩenda kũhe.
22 'And thou, his son, Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though all this thou hast known;
“No wee nawe Belishazaru, mũrũ-we-rĩ, ndũigana kwĩnyiihia, o na gũkorwo nĩwooĩ maũndũ macio mothe.
23 and against the Lord of the heavens thou hast lifted up thyself; and the vessels of His house they have brought in before thee, and thou, and thy great men, thy wives, and thy concubines, are drinking wine with them, and gods of silver, and of gold, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone, that are not seeing, nor hearing, nor knowing, thou hast praised: and the God in whose hand [is] thy breath, and all thy ways, Him thou hast not honoured.
Handũ ha ũguo-rĩ, wee nĩwĩnenehetie makĩria, ũgakararia Mwathani-wa-Igũrũ. Wetirie ikombe iria ciarutĩtwo hekarũ-inĩ yake, ũkĩreherwo, nawe na andũ aku arĩa marĩ igweta, na atumia aku na thuriya ciaku, mũkĩnyua ndibei nacio. Na inyuĩ mũkĩgooca ngai cia betha na cia thahabu, na cia gĩcango, na cia kĩgera, na cia mĩtĩ, o na cia mahiga, iria itoonaga, kana ikaigua, kana igakũũrana ũndũ. No rĩrĩ, wee ndũigana gũtĩĩa Ngai ũrĩa ũgwete muoyo waku guoko-inĩ gwake, na akamenya mĩthiĩre yaku yothe.
24 'Then from before Him sent is the extremity of the hand, and the writing is noted down;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtũma guoko kũu gũũke kwandĩke maandĩko macio.
25 and this [is] the writing that is noted down: Numbered, Numbered, Weighed, and Divided.
“Maandĩko macio mandĩkĩtwo maroiga ũũ: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN
26 This [is] the interpretation of the thing: Numbered — God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it.
“Naguo ũtaũri wa ciugo ici nĩguo ũyũ:
27 Weighed — Thou art weighed in the balances, and hast been found lacking.
TEKEL nĩ ta kuuga: Wee nĩũthimĩtwo na ratiri, ũkoneka nĩũtigairie.
28 Divided — Divided is thy kingdom, and it hath been given to the Medes and Persians.'
PERES nĩ ta kuuga: Ũthamaki waku nĩ mũgayanie, ũkaheanwo kũrĩ Amedi na Aperisia.”
29 Then hath Belshazzar said, and they have clothed Daniel with purple, and a bracelet of gold [is] on his neck, and they have proclaimed concerning him that he is the third ruler in the kingdom.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Belishazaru agĩatha andũ ake, nao makĩhumba Danieli nguo ya rangi wa ndathi, na agĩĩkĩrwo kĩrengeeri gĩa thahabu ngingo, naguo ũhoro wake ũkĩmenyithanio atĩ nĩwe mwathani wa gatatũ ũthamaki-inĩ ũcio.
30 In that night Belshazzar king of the Chaldeans is slain,
Ũtukũ o ro ũcio, Belishazaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni akĩũragwo,
31 and Darius the Mede hath received the kingdom, when a son of sixty and two years.
nake Dario ũrĩa Mũmedia akĩoya ũthamaki ũcio, arĩ na ũkũrũ ta wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtandatũ na ĩĩrĩ.
