Daniel 2
1 Le Nebukadnezar ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe evelia me la, Nebukadnezar ku drɔ̃ewo, eƒe susu ɖe fu nɛ eye megatea ŋu dɔa alɔ̃ o.
Ngomnyaka wesibili wokubusa kwakhe, uNebhukhadineza waphupha amaphupho; wahlupheka engqondweni, wehluleka lokulala.
2 Ale fia la yɔ dzotɔwo, bokɔwo, gbesalawo kple ɣletivimenunyalawo ƒo ƒu be woalĩ drɔ̃e siwo yeku la na ye. Esi wova tsi tsitre ɖe eŋkume la,
Ngakho inkosi yasibiza omasalamusi, lezangoma, labavumisi lezingcazi zezinkanyezi ukuthi bamtshele lokho ayekuphuphile. Sebengenile bema phambi kwayo inkosi,
3 egblɔ na wo be, “Meku drɔ̃e aɖe si le fu ɖem nam eye medi be mase egɔme.”
yathi kubo, “Ngibe lephupho elingihluphayo yikho ngifuna ukwazi ukuthi litshoni.”
4 Tete ɣletivimenunyalawo gblɔ nɛ le Aramgbe me be, “O fia, nɔ agbe tegbee. Lĩ drɔ̃e la na wò subɔlawo, eye míaɖe egɔme.”
Kwasekusithi ingcazi zezinkanyezi zayiphendula inkosi zikhuluma ngesi-Aramu zathi, “Bayethe, nkosi! Phila kuze kube nininini! Zitshele izinceku zakho iphupho lelo, thina sizalichaza.”
5 Fia la ɖo eŋu na ɣletivimenunyalawo be, “Nu si meɖo ta me kplikpaa be mawɔe nye, ne mielĩ drɔ̃e la nam eye mieɖe egɔme nam o la, mana woafli mi kakɛkakɛ eye miaƒe aƒewo azu aɖukpo.
Inkosi yaziphendula ingcazi zezinkanyezi yathi, “Nanku esengikumisile: Nxa lingangitsheli ukuthi iphupho lami beliyini beselilichaza, ngizakuthi liqunywaqunywe iziqa, izindlu zenu zidilizwe zibe yinqwaba.
6 Ke ne mielĩ drɔ̃e la eye mieɖe egɔme nam la, ekema miaxɔ nunanawo kple fetuwo kple bubudeameŋu gã aɖe tso gbɔnye.”
Kodwa lingangitshela iphupho kanye lengcazelo yalo ngizalipha izipho lemivuzo lodumo olukhulu. Ngakho ngitshelani iphupho libe selingichazela lona.”
7 Wogagblɔ be, “Fia la nelĩ drɔ̃e la na eƒe dɔlawo eye míaɖe egɔme.”
Baphinda njalo baphendula bathi, “Inkosi kayizitshele izichaka zayo iphupho lelo, thina sizalichasisa.”
8 Tete fia la ɖo eŋu be, “Meka ɖe edzi be ɣeyiɣi ko dim miele elabena mienya ta me si meɖo kplikpaa.
Inkosi yaphendula yathi, “Ngileqiniso ukuthi liqonde ukuchitha isikhathi ngoba libona ukuthi yilokhu esengikumisile ukuthi:
9 Ne mielĩ drɔ̃e la nam o la, tohehe ɖeka pɛ koe li na mi. Mieɖo ta me ɖeka be yewoagblɔ nya tramawo kple nya tso nu vɔ̃ɖiwo ŋuti kple mɔkpɔkpɔ be nuwo atrɔ, eya ta azɔ la, milĩ drɔ̃e la nam, ekema manya be miate ŋu aɖe egɔme nam.”
Nxa lingangitsheli iphupho lelo, sinye zwi isijeziso senu. Seliyengene ukuthi lingitshele inkohliso lamanyala, licabanga ukuthi kumbe izinto zizaguquka. Manje-ke ngitshelani iphupho lelo yikho ngizakwazi ukuthi lingangichasisela lona.”
10 Ɣletivimenunyalawo ɖo eŋu na fia la be, “Ame aɖeke mele anyigba dzi si ate ŋu awɔ nu si fia la bia o! Nenema ke fia gã, ŋusẽtɔ aɖeke meli si bia nu sia tso eƒe dzotɔwo, bokɔwo kple ɣletivimenunyalawo si kpɔ o.
Ingcazi zezinkanyezi zayiphendula inkosi zathi, “Kakulamuntu emhlabeni ongakwenza lokho okufunwa yinkosi! Kayikho inkosi, loba ingenkulu kanganani kumbe ilamandla anganani, eyake yafuna into enjalo laloba kubani oyenza amasalamusi, kumbe isangoma loba ingcazi yezinkanyezi.
11 Nu si fia la bia la sẽ akpa. Ame aɖeke mate ŋu aɖee afia fia la o, negbe mawuwo ko, gake womenɔa amewo dome o.”
Lokhu okufunwa yinkosi kunzima kakhulu. Kakho ongakwambulela inkosi ngaphandle kwabonkulunkulu, njalo kabahlali ebantwini.”
12 Nu sia do dɔmedzoe na fia la ale gbegbe be wòɖe gbe be woawu Babilonia nunyalawo katã.
Lokhu kwayizondisa inkosi yabila ngolaka yahle yathi zonke izihlakaniphi zaseBhabhiloni kazibulawe.
13 Ale wòde se be woawu nunyalawo katã, eye wòɖo amewo ɖa be woadi Daniel kple etɔawo hã ne woawu wo.
Ngakho sakhutshwa isimemezelo sokuthi izazi kazibulawe, yikho kwathunywa amadoda ukuyadinga uDanyeli labakhula bakhe ukuthi babulawe.
14 Esime Ariɔk, fiaŋusrafowo ƒe amegã yi be yeawu Babilonia nunyalawo la, Daniel ƒo nu kplii kple nunya kple ayedzedze.
Kwathi u-Ariyoki, indunankulu yamanxusa enkosi isiphumile ukuyabulala izihlakaniphi zaseBhabhiloni, uDanyeli wakhuluma laye ngokuhlakanipha langokunanzelela.
15 Ebia amegã la be, “Nu ka ta fia la de se sesẽ sia ɖo?” Tete Ariɔk ɖe nya la me na Daniel.
Wasibuza isikhulu lesi senkosi wathi, “Kungani inkosi ikhuphe isimemezelo esibuhlungu kangaka na?” U-Ariyoki waseyichaza indaba kuDanyeli.
16 Tete Daniel yi fia la gbɔ eye wòbia be wòana ɣeyiɣi ye be yeaɖe drɔ̃e la gɔme nɛ.
Esekuzwile lokho uDanyeli waya enkosini wacela ukuba ake aphiwe isikhathi, ukuze ayichazele iphupho layo.
17 Daniel trɔ yi eƒe aƒe me eye woɖe nya la me na xɔlɔ̃awo: Hananiya, Misael kple Azaria.
UDanyeli wabuyela endlini yakhe wayatshela abakhula bakhe oHananiya, loMishayeli lo-Azariya ngendaba leyo.
18 Edo ŋusẽ xɔlɔ̃awo be woaɖe kuku na Mawu si le dziƒo be wòakpɔ nublanui na yewo le nya ɣaɣla sia ŋu ale be womawu ye kple ye xɔlɔ̃wo kpe ɖe Babilonia nunyala bubuawo ŋu o.
Wabakhuthaza ukuthi bacele umusa kuNkulunkulu wasezulwini ngale inkinga eyimfihlakalo, ukuze kuthi yena labakhula bakhe baphephe ekubulaweni kanye lazozonke izihlakaniphi zaseBhabhiloni.
19 Le zã me la, Mawu ɖe nya ɣaɣla sia fia Daniel le ŋutega me. Ale Daniel kafu dziƒo ƒe Mawu la
Kwathi ebusuku inkinga leyo yambulelwa uDanyeli ngombono. UDanyeli wasemdumisa uNkulunkulu wasezulwini
20 hegblɔ be, “Woakafu Mawu ƒe ŋkɔ Tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me. Nunya kple ŋusẽ nye etɔ.
wathi: “Kalidunyiswe ibizo likaNkulunkulu nini lanini; inhlakanipho lamandla kungokwakhe.
21 Eyae ɖɔa li ɣeyiɣiwo kple azãgbewo Eyae ɖoa fiawo eye wòtua fiawo. Eyae naa nunya nunyalawo Eye wònaa gɔmesese nugɔmeselawo
Uyaguqula izikhathi lezibanga; uyawabeka amakhosi aphinde awaqethule. Unika inhlakanipho kwabahlakaniphileyo lolwazi kwabaqedisisayo.
22 Eyae ɖea nu detowo kple nu ɣaɣlawo fiana Enyaa nu si ɣla ɖe viviti me Eye kekeli nɔa eŋu.
Uveza obala izinto ezizikileyo lezifihlakeleyo; uyakwazi okucatshe emnyameni, lokukhanya kuhlala kuye.
23 Meda akpe na wò eye mekafu wò O, fofonyewo ƒe Mawu. Ètsɔ nunya kple ŋusẽ nam Èna menya nu tso nu si míebia wò ŋu Èna míenya fia la ƒe drɔ̃e la.”
Ngiyakubonga njalo ngiyakudumisa, Oh Nkulunkulu wabokhokho bami: Ungiphile inhlakanipho lamandla, usungazisile mina lokho esikucelileyo kuwe, ususazisile thina iphupho lenkosi.”
24 Tete Daniel yi Ariɔk, ame si fia la ɖo na be wòawu Babilonia nunyalawo katã la gbɔ eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Mègawu Babilonia nunyalawo o. Kplɔm yi fia la gbɔ eye maɖe eƒe drɔ̃e la gɔme nɛ.”
UDanyeli wasesiya ku-Ariyoki owayekhethwe yinkosi ukuba abulale izihlakaniphi zaseBhabhiloni, wathi kuye, “Ungazibulali izihlakaniphi zaseBhabhiloni. Ngisa enkosini, ngizayichasisela iphupho layo.”
25 Ariɔk kplɔ Daniel yi fia la gbɔ enumake, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Mekpɔ ame aɖe le aboyo me si tso Yudatɔwo dome, ame si ate ŋu aɖe drɔ̃e la gɔme na fia la!”
U-Ariyoki wahle wasa uDanyeli enkosini wathi, “Sengiyifumene indoda kwabathunjiweyo bakwaJuda engayitshela inkosi ukuthi iphupho layo litshoni.”
26 Fia la bia Daniel (ame si wogayɔna be Beltesazar la) be, “Àte ŋu agblɔ nu si mekpɔ le nye drɔ̃e la me nam eye nàɖe egɔmea?”
Inkosi yambuza uDanyeli (njalo othiwa nguBhelitheshazari), “Kambe ungangitshela na engakubonayo ephutsheni lami uphinde ulichasise?”
27 Daniel ɖo eŋu be, “Nunyala alo bokɔ, dzotɔ alo ɣletivimenunyala aɖeke mate ŋu aɖe nya ɣaɣla si gɔme nèbia be woaɖe na ye la gɔme o
Waphendula uDanyeli wathi, “Kasikho isihlakaniphi, noma isangoma, noma oyenza amasalamusi, noma isanuse esingayihlahlulela inkosi imfihlakalo eyidingayo,
28 gake Mawu aɖe le dziƒo, ame si ɖea nu ɣaɣlawo fiana. Eɖe nu si ava dzɔ le ŋkeke siwo gbɔna la me fia Fia Nebukadnezar. Wò drɔ̃e kple ŋutega siwo to wò susu me esi nèmlɔ wò aba dzi la le ale:
kodwa ukhona uNkulunkulu ezulwini owambula zonke imfihlakalo. Utshengise inkosi uNebhukhadineza okuzakwenzakala ngezinsuku ezizayo. Iphupho lakho lemibono eyafika engqondweni yakho ulele embhedeni wakho yile:
29 “Esi nèmlɔ anyi la, O fia, wò susu trɔ ɖe nu siwo ava dzɔ la ŋu eye ame si ɖea nya ɣaɣlawo fiam la ɖe nu siwo ava dzɔ la fia wò.
Wathi ulele khonapho nkosi, ingqondo yakho yaphatha izinto ezisezakuza, kwathi umhlahluli wezinkinga wakubonisa okuzakwenzakala.”
30 Le nye gome la, woɖe nya ɣaɣla sia fiam, menye esi nunya le asinye wu ame bubu siwo le agbe la ta o, ke boŋ be wò, O fia, nànya gɔmeɖeɖe la eye be nàse nu si to wò susu me la gɔme.
Okwami yikuthi ngiyambulelwe imfihlakalo le, kungesukuthi yingoba ngilenhlakanipho eyeqa eyabanye abaphilayo, kodwa ukuze kuthi wena, Oh nkosi, uyazi ingcazelo njalo ukuze uzwisise okwakuphithikana engqondweni yakho.
31 “Èɖo ŋku anyi, O fia eye nèkpɔ legba gã aɖe, elolo nɔ dzo dam eye eƒe dzedzeme dzi ŋɔ.
Wathi uyakhangela, Oh nkosi, wabona kumi phambi kwakho isithombe esikhulukazi, inkalakatha yesithombe esikhazimulayo, sisesabeka ukukhangeleka kwaso.
32 Wowɔ legba la ƒe ta kple sika nyuitɔ, wowɔ eƒe akɔta kple abɔwo kple klosalo, wowɔ eƒe ƒodo kple atawo kple akɔbli,
Ikhanda lesithombe lalenziwe ngegolide elicengekileyo, isifuba saso lezingalo kubunjwe ngesiliva, isisu lemilenze kubunjwe ngethusi,
33 wowɔ eƒe afɔwo kple gayibɔ eye wowɔ eƒe afɔwo ƒe akpa aɖewo kple gayibɔ, akpa aɖewo kple tsu.
imibala ibunjwe ngensimbi, inyawo zaso zilengxenye yensimbi lenye ingxenye yebumba elitshisiweyo.
34 Esi nènɔ ŋku lém ɖe nuwo ŋu la, wolã agakpe aɖe me, ke menye kple amegbetɔ ƒe asi o. Ege va dze legba la ƒe afɔ siwo wowɔ kple gayibɔ kple tsu la dzi eye wògbã wo gudugudu.
Wathi ulokhu usabukele, kwaqetshulwa ilitshe, kungesingazandla zamuntu. Lasigxoba isithombe ezinyaweni zaso zensimbi lebumba lazihlifiza.
35 Tete gayibɔ la, tsu la, akɔbli la, klosalo la kple sika la gbã gudugudu le ɣeyiɣi ɖeka ma me eye wozu abe tsro le lugbɔƒe le dzomeŋɔli ene. Ya ƒo wo dzoe eye wo teƒe megadze o. Ke kpe si dze legba la, trɔ zu to gã aɖe eye wòxɔ anyigba blibo la dzi.
Kwasekusithi insimbi, lebumba, lethusi, lesiliva kanye legolide kwachobozeka kwaba yizicucu kanyekanye kwaba njengomule esizeni ehlobo. Umoya waziphephula izicucu wazikhucula du. Kodwa ilitshe elagxoba isithombe laba yintaba enkulu yagcwala umhlaba wonke.
36 “Drɔ̃e lae nye si. Azɔ la míaɖe egɔme na fia la.
Leli bekuyilo iphupho, manje-ke sesizalichazela inkosi.
37 O fia, wòe nye fiawo dzi fia la. Mawu si le dziƒo la tsɔ dziɖuɖu kple ŋusẽ kpakple bubu,
Wena, Oh nkosi uyinkosi yamakhosi. UNkulunkulu wasezulwini ukunikile umbuso, lamandla lobukhulu lodumo;
38 amegbetɔwo, gbemelãwo kple dziƒoxeviwo de asiwò me. Afi sia afi si wole la, Mawu na nènye wo katã dzi ɖula. Wòe nye ta ma si nye sika.
uluntu lonke ulunikele ezandleni zakho kanye lezinyamazana zeganga lezinyoni zemoyeni. Loba zihlala ngaphi, ukwenze wena waba ngumbusi wakho konke. Ulikhanda leliyana legolide.
39 “Fiaɖuƒe bubu aɖe, si made tɔwò nu o la, ava ɖe tɔwò yome. Emegbe la, fiaɖuƒe etɔ̃lia si nye akɔblitɔ la aɖu anyigba katã dzi.
Ngemva kwakho, kuzakuba khona omunye umbuso, ophansi kulowakho. Kuzalandela owesithathu owethusi ozabusa umhlaba wonke.
40 Le nuwuwu la, fiaɖuƒe enelia ava, si asẽ abe gayibɔ ene elabena gayibɔ gbãa nu sia nu eye abe ale si gayibɔ gbãa nu sia nu gudugudu ene la, nenemae wòagbã fiaɖuƒe bubuawoe.
Ekucineni kuzakuba lombuso wesine oqinileyo njengensimbi ngoba insimbi iyephula ivodloze yonke into, yikho njengoba insimbi isephula izinto zibe yizicucu, kanjalo umbuso lowo uzayichoboza yonke eminye.
41 Abe ale si nèkpɔe be wowɔ afɔwo kple afɔbidɛwo ƒe akpa aɖewo kple tsu kple gayibɔ ene la, nenemae fiaɖuƒe sia amae, ke gayibɔ ƒe ŋusẽ aɖe anɔ eme abe ale si nèkpɔ wotsaka gayibɔ kple tsu ene. Ale fiaɖuƒe la ƒe akpa aɖe asẽ eye akpa aɖe masẽ o.
Njengoba ubonile ukuthi inyawo lamazwane bekulengxenye yebumba elitshisiweyo lengxenye yensimbi, yikho lo uzakuba ngumbuso odabuke phakathi; loba nje uzakuba lamanye amandla ensimbi phakathi kwawo, njengalokhu uyibonile insimbi ixubene lebumba.
42 Abe ale si wowɔ afɔbidɛawo ƒe akpa aɖe kple gayibɔ eye wowɔ akpa aɖe kple tsu ene la, nenemae fiaɖuƒe sia ƒe akpa aɖe asẽ ŋu eye akpa aɖe masẽ ŋu o.
Njengoba amazwane abelengxenye yensimbi, lengxenye yebumba, kanjalo umbuso lo uzakuba lamandla nganxanye, nganxanye ubucuzeke.
43 Eye abe ale si nèkpɔ wotsaka gayibɔ kple tsu ene la, nenema ameawo amae eye womawɔ ɖeka o, abe gayibɔ kple tsu ene.
Njalo njengoba ubonile insimbi ixubene lebumba elitshisiweyo, kanjalo abantu bazakuba yinhlanganisela bahlale bengamanyananga, njengoba insimbi ingahlangani lebumba.
44 “Le fia mawo ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me la, Mawu si le dziƒo la aɖo fiaɖuƒe aɖe anyi si magbã akpɔ gbeɖe o eye womagblẽe ɖi na ame bubuwo o. Agbã fiaɖuƒe mawo katã eye wòahe woƒe nuwuwu vɛ, ke eya ŋutɔ anɔ anyi tegbee.
“Ngalesosikhathi samakhosi lawo uNkulunkulu wasezulwini uzabeka umbuso ongasoze wabhidlizwa lanini njalo ongasoze utshiyelwe abanye abantu. Uzayibhidliza yonke leyomibuso iphele, kodwa wona uzakuma laphakade.”
45 Esiae nye ŋutega tso agakpe si tso toa me la ƒe gɔmeɖeɖe, ke menye kple amegbetɔ ƒe asi o, enye agakpe si gbã gayibɔ la, akɔbli la, tsu la, klosalo la kple sika la gudugudu. “Mawu gã la ɖe nu si ava dzɔ la fia fia la. Drɔ̃e la nye nyateƒe eye woaka ɖe eƒe gɔmeɖeɖe dzi.”
Le yiyo ingcazelo yombono welitshe elaqhekezwa entabeni, kungasingezandla zomuntu, ilitshe elaphahlaza insimbi, lethusi, lebumba, lesiliva kanye legolide kwaba yizicucu. “UNkulunkulu omkhulu uyitshengisile inkosi okuzakwenzeka ngesikhathi esizayo. Iphupho liliqiniso lengcazelo iqondile.”
46 Tete Nebukadnezar tsyɔ mo anyi hede ta agu na Daniel eye wòɖe gbe be woasa vɔ eye woado dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ na Daniel.
Inkosi uNebhukhadineza wazilahla wathi mbo phambi kukaDanyeli wamkhonza wakhupha ilizwi lokuthi kenzelwe umnikelo atshiselwe impepha njalo.
47 Fia la gblɔ na Daniel be, “Nyateƒee, miaƒe Mawu la nye mawuwo dzi Mawu kple fiawo ƒe Aƒetɔ kple ame si ɖea nya ɣaɣlawo fiana elabena ète ŋu ɖe nya ɣaɣla la fia.”
Inkosi yathi kuDanyeli, “Ngempela uNkulunkulu wakho nguNkulunkulu wabonkulunkulu leNkosi yamakhosi lomambuleli wezimfihlakalo, ngoba ukwazile ukwambula imfihlakalo le.”
48 Tete fia la tsɔ Daniel da ɖe ɖoƒe kɔkɔ aɖe eye wòtsɔ nunana geɖewo nɛ. Etsɔe ɖo Babilonia nuto la katã me nu, eye wòna wòzu Babilonia nunyalawo katã ƒe tatɔ.
Inkosi yasibeka uDanyeli esikhundleni esiphezulu yelekelela ngezipho ezinengi kuye. Yamenza waba ngumbusi kulolonke ilizwe laseBhabhiloni njalo waba ngumphathi wazo zonke izazi zakhona.
49 Hekpe ɖe esia ŋu la, le Daniel ƒe kokoƒoƒo nu la, ewɔ Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego Babilonianyigba la ƒe dziɖuɖudɔwo dzi kpɔlawoe. Ke Daniel ŋutɔ nɔ fia la ƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃ƒe.
Isicelwe nguDanyeli, yaphinde yabeka uShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko baba ngabaphathi beziqinti zelizwe laseBhabhiloni, kodwa yena uDanyeli wasala esigodlweni.
