< Daniyel 2 >
1 A shekara ta biyu ta mulkinsa, Nebukadnezzar ya yi mafarkai; hankalinsa ya tashi har ya kāsa barci.
In the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, he had dreams. His mind was troubled, and he could not sleep.
2 Sai sarki ya sa aka tattara masa masu sihiri da masu dabo da bokaye da masanan taurari domin su faɗi abin da ya yi mafarki a kai. Da suka shigo suka tsaya a gaban sarki,
Then the king summoned the magicians and those who claimed to speak with the dead. He also called the sorcerers and wise men. He wanted them to tell him about his dreams. So they came in and stood before the king.
3 sai ya ce musu, “Na yi mafarkin da ya dame ni kuma ina so in san me yake nufi.”
The king said to them, “I have had a dream, and my mind is anxious to know what the dream means.”
4 Sai masanan taurarin suka amsa wa sarki da Arameyanci “Ran sarki yă daɗe! Ka faɗa wa bayinka mafarkin, mu kuma sai mu fassara.”
Then the wise men spoke to the king in Aramaic, “King, live forever! Tell the dream to us, your servants, and we will reveal the meaning.”
5 Sai sarki ya amsa wa masanan taurarin ya ce, “Na mance da abin, idan ba ku tuno mini mafarkin, duk da fassararsa ba, to, za a daddatse ku gunduwa-gunduwa, a mai da gidajenku juji.
The king replied to the wise men, “This matter has been settled. If you do not reveal the dream to me and interpret it, your bodies will be torn apart and your houses made into rubbish heaps.
6 Amma in har kuka faɗa mini mafarkina kuka kuma bayyana fassararsa, za ku sami lada mai girma. Saboda haka ku faɗa mini mafarkin da kuma fassararsa.”
But if you will tell me the dream and its meaning, you will receive gifts from me, a reward, and great honor. So tell to me the dream and its meaning.”
7 Sai suka sāke amsa masa suka ce, “Ran sarki yă daɗe, faɗa wa bayinka mafarkin, mu kuma za mu fassara shi.”
They replied again and said, “Let the king tell us, his servants, the dream and we will tell you its meaning.”
8 Sai sarki ya amsa ya ce, “Na gane cewa kuna ƙoƙari ku ɓata lokaci ne kawai domin ku ga na manta da abin.
The king answered, “I know for certain that you want more time because you see how firm my decision is about this.
9 In ba ku faɗa mini mafarkin ba, akwai hukunci guda ɗaya kurum dominku. Kun haɗa baki domin ku faɗa mini munanan al’amura domin ku ruɗe ni har lokaci yă wuce. Sai ku faɗa mini mafarkin, ta haka kuwa zan sani za ku iya yi mini fassararsa.”
But if you do not tell me the dream, there is only one sentence for you. You have decided to prepare false and deceptive words that you agreed together to say to me until I change my mind. So then, tell me the dream, and then I will know you can interpret it for me.”
10 Sai masanan taurarin suka amsa wa sarki suka ce, “Babu wani mutum a duniyan nan da zai iya yin abin da sarki yake nema! Babu wani sarki mai daraja da girma wanda ya taɓa yin irin wannan tambaya ga masu sihiri ko masu dabo ko masanan taurari.
The wise men replied to the king, “There is not a man on earth able to meet the king's demand. There is no great and powerful king who has demanded such a thing from any magician, or from anyone who claims to speak with the dead, or from a wise man.
11 Abin da sarki yake nema yana da wuya matuƙa. Babu wani da zai iya bayyana wannan ga sarki sai dai alloli; kuma ba su zama tare da’yan adam.”
What the king demands is difficult, and there is no one who can tell it to the king except the gods, and they do not live among humans.”
12 Wannan ya sa sarki ya fusata ƙwarai, ya ba da umarni a tafi da dukan masu hikima na Babilon a kashe su.
This made the king angry and very furious, and he gave an order to destroy all those in Babylon who were known for their wisdom.
13 Sai aka ba da dokar da za a kashe masu hikima, sa’an nan aka aika mutane su je su nemo Daniyel da abokansa domin a kashe su.
So the decree went out that all those who were known for their wisdom were to be put to death. Because of this decree, they searched for Daniel and his friends so they could be put to death.
14 Sa’ad da Ariyok, shugaban ƙungiyar matsaran sarki, ya fita domin yă kashe masu hikima na Babilon, sai Daniyel ya yi masa magana cikin hikima da dabara.
Then Daniel replied with prudence and discretion to Arioch the commander of the king's bodyguard, who had come to kill all those in Babylon who were known for their wisdom.
15 Ya tambayi mai tsaro na sarki, “Me ya sa sarki ya fitar da wannan doka haka da fushi?” Sai Ariyok ya yi wa Daniyel bayanin batun.
Daniel asked the king's commander, “Why is the king's decree so urgent?” So Arioch told Daniel what had happened.
16 Da jin haka sai Daniyel ya tafi wurin sarki ya nemi ƙarin lokaci, domin yă bayyana wa sarki mafarkin da kuma fassararsa.
Then Daniel went in and requested an appointment with the king so that he could present the interpretation to the king.
17 Sa’an nan Daniyel ya komo gida ya kuma sanar wa abokansa Hananiya, Mishayel da Azariya, batun nan duka.
Then Daniel went to his house and explained to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, what had happened.
18 Ya roƙe su su roƙi jinƙan Allah na sama domin wannan mafarki, saboda kada a kashe shi da abokansa tare da sauran masu hikima na Babilon.
He urged them to seek mercy from the God of heaven concerning this mystery so that he and they might not be killed with the rest of the men of Babylon who were known for their wisdom.
19 A wannan dare sai aka bayyana wa Daniyel mafarkin cikin wahayi. Daniyel kuwa ya ɗaukaka Allah na sama.
That night the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision. Then Daniel praised the God of heaven
20 Ya ce, “Yabo ya tabbata ga sunan Allah har abada abadin; hikima da iko nasa ne.
and said, “Praise the name of God forever and ever; for wisdom and power belong to him.
21 Yana sāke lokuta, yana tuɓe sarakuna yana kuma naɗa waɗansu. Yana ba da hikima ga masu hikima kuma ilimi ga masu basira.
He changes the times and seasons; he removes kings and places kings on their thrones. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.
22 Yakan bayyana zurfafa da ɓoyayyun abubuwa; ya san abin da yake cikin dare, haske kuwa yana zaune tare da shi.
He reveals the deep and hidden things because he knows what is in the darkness, and the light lives with him.
23 Na gode maka ina yabonka, Allah na kakannina. Kai ka san hikima da iko, ka sanar da ni abin da muka tambaye ka, ka kuma sanar da mu mafarkin sarki.”
God of my ancestors, I thank you and praise you for the wisdom and power you gave to me. Now you have made known to me what we asked of you, you have made known to us the matter that concerns the king.”
24 Sai Daniyel ya tafi wurin Ariyok, wanda sarki ya sa yă kashe masu hikiman Babilon, ya kuma ce masa, “Kada ka kashe masu hikiman Babilon ka kai ni wurin sarki, ni kuma zan fassara masa mafarkinsa.”
Then Daniel went in to see Arioch (the one the king appointed to kill everyone who was wise in Babylon). He went and said to him, “Do not kill the wise men in Babylon. Take me to the king and I will show the king the interpretation of his dream.”
25 Sai Ariyok ya kai Daniyel wurin sarki nan take ya ce masa, “Na gano wani mutum daga cikin kamammun kabilar Yahuda wanda zai faɗa wa sarki abin da mafarkin yake nufi.”
Then Arioch quickly brought in Daniel before the king and said, “I have found among the exiles of Judah a man who will reveal the meaning of the king's dream.”
26 Sarki ya tambayi Daniyel (wanda ake kira Belteshazar), za ka iya faɗa mini mafarkin da na yi ka kuma fassara shi?
The king said to Daniel (who was called Belteshazzar), “Are you able to tell me the dream that I saw and its meaning?”
27 Daniyel ya amsa, “Babu wani mai hikima, ko mai sihiri, ko mai dabo ko mai duban da zai iya warware wa sarki wannan matsala da ta dame shi,
Daniel answered the king and said, “The mystery that the king has asked about cannot be revealed by those who have wisdom, nor by those who claim to speak with the dead, nor by magicians, and not by astrologers.
28 amma akwai Allahn da yake a sama wanda yake bayyana asirai, ya nuna wa sarki Nebukadnezzar abin da zai faru a kwanaki masu zuwa. Mafarkinka da wahayin da ya wuce cikin tunaninka a sa’ad da kake kwance a gadonka su ne,
Nevertheless, there is a God who lives in the heavens, who reveals mysteries, and he has made known to you, King Nebuchadnezzar, what will happen in the days to come. These were your dream and the visions of your mind as you lay on your bed.
29 “A sa’ad da kake kwance, ya sarki, tunaninka ya ga al’amuran da suke zuwa, kuma shi mai bayyana al’amuran ya bayyana maka asiran abubuwan da za su faru.
As for you, king, your thoughts on your bed were about things to come, and the one who reveals mysteries has made known to you what is about to happen.
30 Amma ba a bayyana mini wannan asiri saboda ina da wata hikima fiye da sauran mutane ba, sai dai domin a sanar wa sarki da fassarar, ka kuma san tunanin da ya shiga zuciyarka.
As for me, this mystery was not revealed to me because of any wisdom that I have more than any other living person. This mystery was revealed to me so that you, king, may understand the meaning, and so that you may know the thoughts deep within you.
31 “Ya sarki, ka ga wata babbar siffa, mai girma, siffa ce mai haske, abar bantsoro tana tsaye a gabanka.
King, you looked up and you saw a large statue. This statue, which was very powerful and bright, stood before you. Its brightness was terrifying.
32 An yi kan wannan siffa da zinariya zalla, ƙirjinta da kuma hannuwanta an yi su da azurfa, cikinta da kuma cinyarta da tagulla ne.
The head of the statue was made of fine gold. Its breast and arms were of silver. Its middle and its thighs were made of bronze,
33 An yi ƙafafun da ƙarfe, tafin ƙafafunta kuma an yi rabi da ƙarfe rabi kuma da yumɓu.
and its legs were made of iron. Its feet were made partly of iron and partly of clay.
34 A lokacin da kake dubawa, sai aka yanko wani dutse, amma ba da hannun mutum ba. Ya fāɗa a kan ƙafafun siffar na ƙarfen da aka haɗa da yumɓu aka kuma ragargaje su.
You looked up, and a stone was cut out, although not by human hands, and it struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay, and it shattered them.
35 Sai ƙarfen da yambun da tagulla da azurfan da kuma zinariyan suka ragargaje a lokaci ɗaya ya zama kamar ƙaiƙayi a masussuka a lokacin kaka. Sai iska ta kwashe su ta tafi, har ba a iya ganin ko alamarsu. Amma dutsen da ya fāɗo a siffar ya girke ya zama tsauni ya kuma cika dukan duniya.
Then the iron, clay, bronze, silver, and gold at the same time were broken into pieces and became like the chaff of the threshing floors in the summer. The wind carried them away and there was no trace of them left. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
36 “Wannan shi ne mafarkin, yanzu kuma za mu fassara ta wa sarki.
This was your dream. Now we will tell the king the meaning.
37 Ya, sarki, kai ne sarkin sarakuna. Allah na sama ya ba ka iko da girma da suna;
You, king, are king of the kings to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, the strength, and the honor.
38 a cikin hannunka ya sanya ɗan adam, da namun jeji da tsuntsayen sama. A duk inda suke zaune, ya maishe ka ka yi mulki a bisansu kai ne kan zinariyan nan na siffar.
He has given into your hand the place where the human beings live. He has given over the animals of the fields and the birds of the heavens into your hand, and he has made you rule over them all. You are the statue's head of gold.
39 “A bayanka, za a yi wani mulki, wanda bai kai naka ba. A gaba kuma, za a yi mulki na uku wanda yake na tagulla, zai yi mulkin dukan duniya.
After you, another kingdom will arise that is inferior to you, and yet a third kingdom of bronze will rule over all the earth.
40 A ƙarshe, za a yi mulki na huɗu, mai ƙarfi kamar ƙarfe, Da yake baƙin ƙarfe yakan kakkarya, ya ragargaje abubuwa, haka nan wannan mulki zai ragargaje sauran mulkoki
There will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron, because iron breaks other things into pieces and shatters everything. It will shatter all these things and crush them.
41 Ka kuma ga an yi ƙafafun da yatsotsin da baƙin ƙarfe gauraye da yumɓu, wato, mulkin zai rabu, amma zai kasance da ƙarfi kamar na baƙin ƙarfe da yake gauraye da yumɓu.
Just as you saw, the feet and toes were partly made of baked clay and partly made of iron, so it will be a divided kingdom; some of the strength of iron will be in it, just as you saw iron mixed with the soft clay.
42 Kamar yadda yatsotsin rabi na ƙarfe rabi kuma na yumɓu ne, haka wannan mulki zai zama rabi mai ƙarfi rabi kuma marar ƙarfi.
As the toes of the feet were partly made of iron and partly made of clay, so the kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle.
43 Kamar dai yadda ka ga ƙarfen ya gauraye da yumɓu, haka mutanen za su zama a gauraye amma ba za su haɗu da juna ba, kamar yadda baƙin ƙarfe da yumɓu ba su haɗuwa.
As you saw the iron mixed with soft clay, so the people will be a mixture; they will not stay together, just as iron does not mix with clay.
44 “A lokacin mulkin waɗannan sarakunan, Allah na sama zai kafa mulki da ba zai taɓa rushewa ba, ba kuma za a ba ma waɗansu mutane ba. Zai ragargaje waɗannan mulkokin da kuma kawo su ga ƙarshe, amma shi wannan mulki zai dawwama har abada.
In the days of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be conquered by another people. It will break the other kingdoms into pieces and put an end to all of them, and it will remain forever.
45 Wannan shi ne ma’anar wannan wahayin da ka gani na dutsen da aka yanko daga jikin tsaunin, amma ba da hannun ɗan adam ba, dutsen da ya ragargaza ƙarfen, da tagullar, da yumɓun da azurfar da kuma zinariyar. “Allah mai girma ya nuna wa sarki abin da zai faru nan gaba. Mafarkin gaskiya ne, fassararsa kuma abin dogara ne.”
Just as you saw, a stone was cut out of the mountain, but not by human hands. It broke the iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold into pieces. The great God has made known to you, king, what will happen after this. The dream is true and this interpretation is reliable.”
46 Sai sarki Nebukadnezzar ya fāɗi da fuskarsa har ƙasa a gaban Daniyel domin ya girmama shi ya kuma umarta a miƙa hadaya da kuma hadayar ƙonawa ta turare ga Daniyel.
King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face before Daniel and honored him; he commanded that an offering be made and that incense be offered up to him.
47 Sarki ya kuma ce wa Daniyel, “Tabbatacce Allahnka shi ne Allahn alloli da kuma Sarkin sarakuna da mai bayyana asirai, gama ka iya bayyana wannan asiri.”
The king said to Daniel, “Truly your God is the God of gods, the Lord of kings, and the one who reveals mysteries, for you have been able to reveal this mystery.”
48 Sai sarki ya ɗora Daniyel a babban matsayi ya kuma sanya shi mai mulki a kan dukan yankin ƙasar Babilon; ya kuma ɗora shi yă zama mai kula da duk masu hikima.
Then the king made Daniel highly honored and gave him many wonderful gifts. He made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon. Daniel became chief governor over the wisest men of Babylon.
49 Bugu da ƙari, bisa ga bukatar Daniyel sai sarki yă naɗa Shadrak da Meshak da Abednego su zama masu kula da harkokin lardin Babilon, amma Daniyel kuma ya tsaya a fadar sarki.
Daniel made a request of the king, and the king appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to be administrators over the province of Babylon. But Daniel remained at the king's court.
