Daniel 1
1 Le Yuda fia Yehoyakim ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe etɔ̃lia me la, Babilonia fia Nebukadnezar va Yerusalem, eye wòɖe to ɖee.
Ngomnyaka wesithathu wokubusa kukaJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda, kwafika uNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni eJerusalema, wayivimbezela.
2 Aƒetɔ la tsɔ Yehoyakim, Yuda fia de asi nɛ kple nanewo tso Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ me. Etsɔ nu siawo yi eƒe mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ me le Babilonia, eye wòda wo ɖe eƒe mawu ƒe nudzraɖoƒe.
INkosi yasinikela uJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda esandleni sakhe, lengxenye yezitsha zendlu kaNkulunkulu; wasezisa elizweni leShinari, endlini kankulunkulu wakhe; waletha izitsha endlini yenotho kankulunkulu wakhe.
3 Fia la ɖe gbe na Aspenaz, aƒedzikpɔlawo ƒe amegã be wòatia Israelviwo dometɔ aɖewo tso fia la kple bubumewo ƒe ƒomewo me,
Inkosi yasikhuluma kuAshipenazi induna yabathenwa bayo, ukuthi alethe abanye kubantwana bakoIsrayeli, lakunzalo yesikhosini, lakuziphathamandla;
4 ɖekakpui siwo menye nuwɔamitɔwo le go aɖeke me o, wodze ɖeka, woɖi ame siwo dina be yewoasrɔ̃ nu tso nu sia nu ŋu, wonya nu, sea nu gɔme kabakaba eye wodze na dɔwɔwɔ le fiasã la me. Ele nɛ be wòafia Babiloniatɔwo ƒe gbegbɔgblɔ kple nuŋɔŋlɔ wo.
amajaha okungelalasici kuwo, amahle ngesimo, azingcwethi kuyo yonke inhlakanipho, alolwazi ngolwazi, alokuqedisisa ekwazini, lokwakulamandla kuwo okuma esigodlweni senkosi, lokuthi bawafundise izincwadi lolimi lwamaKhaladiya.
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.
Inkosi yasiwamisela into yosuku ngosuku lwayo esabelweni sokudla kwenkosi, lewayinini lokunatha kwayo, lokuthi bawakhulise iminyaka emithathu, ukuze ekupheleni kwayo azekuma phambi kwenkosi.
6 Ame siawo dometɔ aɖewo nye Yudatɔwo. Woawoe nye Daniel, Hananiya, Misael kple Azaria.
Njalo kwakukhona phakathi kwabo kubantwana bakoJuda: ODaniyeli, uHananiya, uMishayeli, loAzariya.
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.
Njalo induna yabathenwa yabatha amabizo; ngoba yamutha uDaniyeli ngokuthi nguBeliteshazari; loHananiya ngokuthi nguShadraki; loMishayeli ngokuthi nguMeshaki; loAzariya ngokuthi nguAbedinego.
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.
Kodwa uDaniyeli wazimisela enhliziyweni yakhe ukuthi angazingcolisi ngesabelo sokudla kwenkosi, langewayini yokunatha kwayo; ngakho wacela enduneni yabathenwa ukuthi angazingcolisi.
9 Azɔ la, Mawu na be dzikpɔla la nave enu eye wòakpɔ nublanui nɛ.
UNkulunkulu wasemnika uDaniyeli umusa lesihawu phambi kwenduna yabathenwa.
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.”
Induna yabathenwa yasisithi kuDaniyeli: Ngiyayesaba inkosi yami, inkosi, emise ukudla kwenu lokunathwayo kwenu; ngoba kungani izabona ubuso benu budanile kulamajaha ayintanga yenu? Ngokunjalo lizafaka ikhanda lami engozini enkosini.
11 Daniel gblɔ na ameŋudzɔla si dzikpɔla la tia be wòadzɔ Daniel, Hananiya, Misael kple Azaria ŋu la be,
UDaniyeli wasesithi kumphathi, induna yabathenwa eyayimmise waba phezu kwaboDaniyeli, uHananiya, uMishayeli, loAzariya:
12 “Meɖe kuku do wò dɔlawo kpɔ ŋkeke ewo. Mègana nu bubu aɖeke mí wu amagbe si míaɖu kple tsi si míano o.
Ake ulinge inceku zakho insuku ezilitshumi; njalo basinike okwemibhida eyimidumba ukuthi sidle, lamanzi ukuthi sinathe.
13 Ekema nàtsɔ míaƒe dzedzeme asɔ kple ɖekakpui siwo ɖua fia la ƒe nuɖuɖu eye nàwɔ na mí ɖe nu si nàkpɔ la nu.”
Kakuthi-ke izimo zethu zibonakale phambi kwakho, lezimo zamajaha adla isabelo sokudla kwenkosi; wenze-ke ezincekwini zakho njengokubona kwakho.
14 Ale wòlɔ̃ eye wòdo wo kpɔ ŋkeke ewo.
Wasebalalela kuloludaba, wabalinga insuku ezilitshumi.
15 Le ŋkeke ewo megbe la, Yuda ɖekakpuiawo dze lãmesesẽtɔwo kple ame siwo ɖu nu nyuiwo wu ame siwo ɖu fia la ƒe nuɖuɖu.
Kwathi ekupheleni kwezinsuku ezilitshumi izimo zabo zabonakala zizinhle njalo zizimukile enyameni kulawo wonke amajaha ayesidla isabelo sokudla kwenkosi.
16 Ale ameŋudzɔla la ɖe nuɖuɖu nyui si woaɖu kple wain si woano la ɖa eye wòtsɔa amagbewo na wo ɖe wo teƒe.
Ngakho-ke umphathi wasusa isabelo sokudla kwabo, lewayini lokunatha kwabo, wabanika imibhida.
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.
Mayelana lala amajaha amane, uNkulunkulu wawanika ulwazi lokuqedisisa kuzo zonke izincwadi, lenhlakanipho. Njalo uDaniyeli waqedisisa ngayo yonke imibono lamaphupho.
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.
Kwathi ekupheleni kwezinsuku inkosi eyayitshilo ukuthi bazawangenisa ngazo, induna yabathenwa yawangenisa phambi kukaNebhukadinezari.
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.
Inkosi yasikhuluma lawo; njalo phakathi kwawo wonke kakutholwanga onjengoDaniyeli, uHananiya, uMishayeli, loAzariya; ngakho ema phambi kwenkosi.
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.
Mayelana lazo zonke izindaba zenhlakanipho lokuqedisisa, inkosi eyayiwabuza ngazo, yawathola esedlula ngokuphindwe katshumi bonke abalumbi lezangoma abasembusweni wayo wonke.
21 Daniel nɔ afi ma va se ɖe fia Sirus ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe gbãtɔ me.
Njalo uDaniyeli waba khona kwaze kwaba ngumnyaka wokuqala wenkosi uKoresi.
