Pea naʻe tuku ʻe he ʻEiki ʻa Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki hono nima, mo e ngaahi ipu niʻihi ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻOtua; ʻaia naʻa ne ʻave ki he fonua, ko Saina, ki he fale ʻo hono ʻotua; pea ne ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ipu ki he feleoko ʻo hono ʻotua.
3 Fia la ɖe gbe na Aspenaz, aƒedzikpɔlawo ƒe amegã be wòatia Israelviwo dometɔ aɖewo tso fia la kple bubumewo ƒe ƒomewo me,
Pea naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi kia ʻAsipinasi, ko e ʻeiki ʻo ʻene kau talifekau, ke ne ʻomai ha niʻihi ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea mo e hako ʻoe tuʻi, pea mo e ngaahi houʻeiki:

Ko e fānau taʻehaʻila kae matamatalelei, pea poto ʻi he ngaahi poto kotoa pē, pea ʻiloʻi ʻae ngaahi ʻilo, mo poto ʻi he ngaahi poto ʻoku ako, pea mo kinautolu naʻe maʻu ʻae faʻa fai ʻiate kinautolu ke tuʻu ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi, ke ako kiate kinautolu ʻae poto mo e lea ʻae kau Kalitia.
5 Fia la naa woƒe gbe sia gbe ƒe nuɖuɖu kple wain wo tso fia la ƒe kplɔ̃ dzi. Woahe wo ƒe etɔ̃ eye le ɣeyiɣi sia megbe la, woazu fia la ƒe subɔlawo.
Pea ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻe he tuʻi ki ai ʻae tufakanga meʻakai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, ʻi he meʻakai ʻae tuʻi, pea mo e uaine ʻaia naʻa ne inu: ʻo tauhi pehē ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu, koeʻuhi ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo ia ke nau tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
6 Ame siawo dometɔ aɖewo nye Yudatɔwo. Woawoe nye Daniel, Hananiya, Misael kple Azaria.
Pea naʻe ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi he fānau ʻo Siuta, ʻa Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia.
7 Amegã la tsɔ ŋkɔ yeye na wo: Daniel ƒe ŋkɔ yeyeae nye Beltesazar, Hananiya tɔe nye Sadrak, Misael tɔe nye Mesak, eye Azaria tɔe nye Abednego.
‌ʻAkinautolu naʻe ʻai ki ʻai ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau ʻae ngaahi hingoa, he naʻa ne ʻai kia Taniela ʻae hingoa ko Pelitisasa, pea kia Hanania ko Seteleki, pea kia Misaeli ko Mesake, pea kia ʻAsalia, ko ʻApetiniko.
8 Ke Daniel ɖo ta me be yemagblẽ kɔ ɖo na ye ɖokui kple fia la ƒe nuɖuɖu kple wain o, eye wòbia mɔ eƒe dzikpɔla be yemagblẽ kɔ ɖo na ye ɖokui to mɔ sia dzi o.
Ka naʻe fakapapau ʻa Taniela ʻi hono loto, ʻe ʻikai te ne fakaʻuliʻi ʻe ia ia, ʻaki ʻae tufakanga meʻakai ʻoe tuʻi pe ko e uaine naʻa ne inu: ko ia naʻa ne kole ki he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ke ʻoua naʻa ne fakaʻuliʻi ʻe ia ia.
9 Azɔ la, Mawu na be dzikpɔla la nave enu eye wòakpɔ nublanui nɛ.
Pea ko eni, kuo fakatupu ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi he loto ʻoe ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ʻae lelei mo e ʻofa mamahi kia Taniela.
10 Ke dzikpɔla la gblɔ na Daniel be, “Mele vɔvɔ̃m na nye aƒetɔ kple fia la, ame si ɖo wò nuɖuɖu kple nunono nam. Nu ka ta wòakpɔ wò, wò lãme manyo abe wò hati ɖekakpui bubuawo tɔ ene o? Ekema fia la axɔ nye ta ɖe tawò.”
Pea ne pehē ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau kia Taniela, “ʻOku ou manavahē ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻaia kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻa hoʻomou meʻakai, mo hoʻomou inu, ko e hā ka mamata ai ia ki homou mata ʻoku matamata kovi ʻi he fānau, ʻaia ʻoku mou faʻahinga ki ai? Ka pehē te mou fakatuputāmaki ke tō ki hoku ʻulu mei he tuʻi.”
11 Daniel gblɔ na ameŋudzɔla si dzikpɔla la tia be wòadzɔ Daniel, Hananiya, Misael kple Azaria ŋu la be,
Pea ne pehē ʻe Taniela kia Melasa, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ke pule kia Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia,
12 “Meɖe kuku do wò dɔlawo kpɔ ŋkeke ewo. Mègana nu bubu aɖeke mí wu amagbe si míaɖu kple tsi si míano o.
‌ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke ʻahiʻahi ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu, pea ke nau tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae sepo, ke mau kai, mo e vai ke mau inu.
13 Ekema nàtsɔ míaƒe dzedzeme asɔ kple ɖekakpui siwo ɖua fia la ƒe nuɖuɖu eye nàwɔ na mí ɖe nu si nàkpɔ la nu.”
Pea tuku ke vakai ki homau mata ʻi ho ʻao, pea mo e mata ʻoe fānau ʻoku kai ʻae tufakanga ʻoe meʻakai ʻae tuʻi: pea hangē ko hoʻo mamata, fai ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki.”
14 Ale wòlɔ̃ eye wòdo wo kpɔ ŋkeke ewo.
Pea pehē, naʻa ne tokanga kiate kinautolu ʻi he meʻa ni, pea ne ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu.
15 Le ŋkeke ewo megbe la, Yuda ɖekakpuiawo dze lãmesesẽtɔwo kple ame siwo ɖu nu nyuiwo wu ame siwo ɖu fia la ƒe nuɖuɖu.
Pea ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe ʻaho ʻe hongofulu, naʻe matamatalelei hake mo sino ʻa honau mata ʻi he fānau kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe kai ʻae tufakanga ʻoe meʻakai ʻae tuʻi.
16 Ale ameŋudzɔla la ɖe nuɖuɖu nyui si woaɖu kple wain si woano la ɖa eye wòtsɔa amagbewo na wo ɖe wo teƒe.
Ko ia naʻe ʻave ʻe Melasa ʻa ʻenau tufakanga meʻakai, pea mo e uaine naʻe tuku ke nau inu, pea ne tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae sepo.
17 Mawu na nunya kple gɔmesese ɖekakpui ene siawo tso nuŋlɔɖi kple nunya ƒe alɔdze ɖe sia ɖe ŋu. Ke Daniel ya tea ŋu sea ŋutegawo kple drɔ̃e ɖe sia ɖe ƒomevi gɔme.
Pea ko e kau talavou ʻe toko fā ni, naʻe foaki ʻe he ʻOtua kiate kinautolu ʻae ʻilo mo e mafai, ʻi he ngaahi ʻiloʻilo kotoa pē mo e poto, pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Taniela ʻae ʻiloʻi ʻoe ngaahi meʻa hā mai kotoa pē, mo e ngaahi misi.
18 Le ɣeyiɣi si fia la ɖo be woakplɔ wo vɛ na ye ƒe nuwuwu la, aƒedzikpɔlawo ƒe amegã la kplɔ wo yi na Nebukadnezar.
Pea ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe ngaahi ʻaho naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi, ke ne ʻomi ki loto ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻomi ki loto ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ki he ʻao ʻo Nepukanesa.
19 Fia la ƒo nu kpli wo eye wòkpɔ be, ame bubuawo dometɔ aɖeke mede Daniel, Hananiya, Misael kple Azaria nu o, ale woxɔ wo wodze dɔwɔwɔ na fia la gɔme.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi mo kinautolu; pea ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē, naʻe ʻikai ke ʻilo ha niʻihi ʻoku tatau mo Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia: ko ia naʻe tuʻu ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Nepukanesa.
20 Le nunya kple gɔmesese ƒe nya ɖe sia ɖe gome, esi ŋu fia la abia nya wo le la, ekpɔna be wonyo zi ewo wu yeƒe fiaɖuƒea me tɔwo ƒe akunyawɔlawo kple bokɔwo katã.
Pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoe poto, mo e ʻilo ʻaia naʻe fehuʻi ai ʻae tuʻi kiate kinautolu, naʻa ne ʻiloʻi ʻakinautolu, ne nau lelei hake ʻo liunga hongofulu, ʻi he kau fiemana, mo e kau ʻasitolōnoma kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe ʻi hono puleʻanga kotoa pē.
21 Daniel nɔ afi ma va se ɖe fia Sirus ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe gbãtɔ me.
Pea naʻe kei ʻi ai pe ʻa Taniela, ʻo aʻu ki hono ʻuluaki taʻu ʻoe tuʻi ko Kolesi.
