< Daniyel 3 >
1 Sarki Nebukadnezzar ya yi gunkin zinariya, tsawonsa kamu tasa’in, fāɗinsa kuma kamu tara ne, ya kafa shi a filin Dura a yankin Babilon.
Nebuchadnezzar the king has made an image of gold, its height sixty cubits, its breadth six cubits; he has raised it up in the Valley of Dura, in the province of Babylon;
2 Sa’an nan ya aika a kira hakimai da wakilai da gwamnoni da mashawarta, da ma’aji, da alƙalai, da marubutan kotu, da dukan sauran ma’aikatan yankunan, suka hallara domin a rusuna wa wannan siffar da ya kafa.
and Nebuchadnezzar the king has sent to gather the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates, and all the rulers of the province, to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has raised up.
3 Saboda haka sai hakimai, da wakilai da gwamnoni, mashawarta da ma’aji da alƙalai, da marubutan alƙalai, da kuma dukan ma’aikatan yankunan suka tattaru domin kaddamar da siffar da Nebukadnezzar ya kafa, suka kuma tsaya a gabansa.
Then are gathered the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates, and all the rulers of the province, to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has raised up: and they are standing before the image that Nebuchadnezzar has raised up.
4 Sai mai shela ya daga murya da ƙarfi ya ce, “Wannan shi ne abin da aka umarce ku ku yi, ya ku mutane da al’umma da kowane yare.
And a crier is calling mightily: “They are saying to you: O peoples, nations, and languages!
5 Da zarar kuka ji karar ƙaho, da sarewa, da garaya da goge da molo da algaita da kowane irin kaɗe-kaɗe da bushe-bushe ku rusuna ku yi sujada ga wannan gunkin da sarki Nebukadnezzar ya kafa.
At the time that you hear the voice of the horn, the flute, the harp, the lyre, the stringed instrument, the symphony, and all kinds of music, you fall down and pay respect to the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has raised up:
6 Duk wanda bai rusuna ya yi sujada ba, nan take za a jefa shi a cikin tendarun wuta.”
and whoever does not fall down and pay respect, in that hour he is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.”
7 Saboda haka, da zarar suka ji karar ƙaho, da sarewa, garaya da goge da kowane irin kaɗe-kaɗe da bushe-bushe da kowane irin kaɗe-kaɗe kowane mutum da ko wace al’umma da kowane irin yare suka sunkuya suka yi sujada ga wannan siffa ta zinariya da sarki Nebukadnezzar ya kafa.
Therefore at that time, when all the peoples are hearing the voice of the horn, the flute, the harp, the lyre, the stringed instrument, and all kinds of music, falling down are all the peoples, nations and languages, worshiping the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has raised up.
8 A wannan lokaci sai waɗansu masanan taurari suka zo gaba suka yi karar Yahudawa.
Therefore at that time certain Chaldeans have drawn near, and accused the Jews;
9 Suka ce wa sarki Nebukadnezzar, “Ran sarki yă daɗe,
they have answered, indeed, they are saying to Nebuchadnezzar the king, “O king, live for all ages!
10 Ya sarki, ka fitar da doka, cewa duk wanda ya ji karar ƙaho, da sarewa, da garayu da goge, da molo da algaita da kowane irin kayan kaɗe-kaɗe da bushe-bushe sai yă rusuna yă yi sujada ga siffar zinariya,
You, O king, have made a decree that every man who hears the voice of the horn, the flute, the harp, the lyre, the stringed instrument, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, falls down and pays respect to the golden image;
11 kuma cewa duk wanda bai rusuna ya yi sujadar ba za a jefa shi cikin tanderun wuta.
and whoever does not fall down and pay respect, is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
12 Amma sai ga waɗansu Yahudawa waɗanda ka ɗora su a kan harkokin yankin Babilon, wato, Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego waɗanda ba su kula da umarninka ba, ya sarki. Ba su bauta wa allolin ba balle su yi sujada ga gunkin zinariya da ka kafa.”
There are certain Jews whom you have appointed over the work of the province of Babylon—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, these men have not made of you, O king, [any] regard; your gods they are not serving, and to the golden image you have raised up—are not making worship.”
13 Cikin fushi da hasala, Nebukadnezzar ya aika a kira Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego. Aka kawo waɗannan mutane a gaban sarki,
Then Nebuchadnezzar, in anger and fury, has said to bring in Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. Then these men have been brought in before the king.
14 sai Nebukadnezzar ya ce musu, “Gaskiya ne Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego, cewa kun ƙi ku bauta wa alloli kuka kuma ƙi yi sujada ga gunkin da na kafa?
Nebuchadnezzar has answered and said to them, “Is [it] a laid plan, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego—my gods you are not serving, and to the golden image that I have raised up you are not worshiping?
15 Yanzu sa’ad da kuka ji karar ƙaho, da sarewa, da garaya, da goge, da molo da algaita da kowane irin kaɗe-kaɗe da bushe-bushe, in kuna a shirye ku rusuna ƙasa ku yi wa wannan gunkin da na yi sujada, to, da kyau. Amma in ba ku yi sujada ba, za a je fa ku yanzu a cikin tanderun wutar nan. In ga kowane ne allahn nan da zai kuɓutar da ku daga hannuna?”
Now behold, you are ready, so that at the time that you hear the voice of the horn, the flute, the harp, the lyre, the stringed instrument, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, you fall down and pay respect to the image that I have made! But if you do not worship—in that hour you are cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; who is that God who delivers you out of my hands?”
16 Sai Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego suka amsa wa sarki suka ce, “Ya Nebukadnezzar, ba mu bukata mu kāre kanmu a gabanka a kan wannan batu.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego have answered, indeed, they are saying to King Nebuchadnezzar, “We have no need concerning this matter to answer you.
17 In an jefa mu cikin tanderun wutar nan, Allahn da muke bauta wa zai iya cetonmu daga ita, kuma ya sarki, zai cece mu daga hannunka.
Behold, it is; our God whom we are serving, is able to deliver us from a burning fiery furnace; and from your hand, O king, He delivers.
18 Amma ko da bai cece mu ba, muna so ka sani, ya sarki; cewa ba za mu bauta wa allolinka ba ko kuma mu yi sujada ga gunkin zinariyar da ka kafa ba.”
And behold—not! Be it known to you, O king, that we are not serving your gods, and we do not worship the golden image you have raised up.”
19 Sai Nebukadnezzar ya husata da Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego, sai al’amuransa a kansu ya canja. Sai ya umarta a ƙara zuga wutar har sau bakwai domin tă yi zafi fiye da yadda take a dā.
Then Nebuchadnezzar has been full of fury, and the expression of his face has been changed concerning Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego; he answered and said to heat the furnace seven times above that which it is seen to be heated;
20 Kuma ya umarci waɗansu ƙarfafan sojoji a cikin rundunarsa su daure Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego su jefa su cikin tanderun wutar.
and to certain mighty men who [are] in his force he has said to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to cast into the burning fiery furnace.
21 Waɗannan mutanen suna sanye da riguna, da wanduna, da rawani da waɗansu kayan sawa, aka daure su, aka jefa su cikin tanderun wuta.
Then these men have been bound in their coats, their tunics, and their turbans, and their clothing, and have been cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
22 Sarki ya ba da umarnin da gaggawa kuma wutar ta yi zafi ƙwarai har harshen wutar ya kashe sojojin nan da suka ɗauki Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego,
Therefore, because that the word of the king is urgent, and the furnace heated exceedingly, those men who have taken up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego—the spark of the fire has killed them.
23 waɗannan mutane uku kuma a daure, suka fāɗa cikin tanderun wutar.
And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, have fallen down in the midst of the burning fiery furnace—bound.
24 Sai Sarki Nebukadnezzar ya miƙe tsaye, cike da mamaki ya tambayi mashawartansa, “Shin ba mutum uku ba ne muka daure muka jefa cikin wutar?” Suka amsa, “Tabbatacce haka yake ya sarki.”
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king has been astonished, and has risen in haste; he has answered and said to his counselors, “Have we not cast three men into the midst of the fire—bound?” They have answered and are saying to the king, “Certainly, O king.”
25 Sai ya ce, “Ku duba ina ganin mutum huɗu suna tafiya suna yawo a cikin wutar, a sake kuma babu abin da ya same su, na huɗun sai ka ce ɗan alloli.”
He answered and has said, “Behold, I am seeing four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the appearance of the fourth [is] like to a son of the gods.”
26 Sai Nebukadnezzar ya matsa kusa da ƙofar tanderun wutar ya yi kira da ƙarfi, “Shedrak, Meshak da Abednego, bayin Allah Mafi Ɗaukaka ku fito! Ku zo nan!” Sai Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego suka fita daga cikin wutar,
Then Nebuchadnezzar has drawn near to the gate of the burning fiery furnace; he has answered and said, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, servants of God Most High come forth, indeed, come”; then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego come forth, from the midst of the fire;
27 Sa’an nan hakimai, da wakilai, da gwamnoni da masu ba wa sarki shawara suka kewaya su. Suka ga wutar ba tă yi musu wani lahani a jikinsu ba, babu ko gashin kansu da ya ƙuna; ko warin wuta ma ba su yi ba.
and gathered together, the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, and the counselors of the king, are seeing these men, that the fire has no power over their bodies, and the hair of their head has not been singed, and their coats have not changed, and the smell of fire has not passed on them.
28 Sa’an nan Nebukadnezzar ya ce, “Yabo ya tabbata ga Allahn Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego wanda ya aiko da mala’ikansa ya ceci bayinsa da suka dogara matuƙa a gare shi, suka ki bin umarnin sarki kuma su na a shirye domin su ba da ransu da suka ƙi bauta ko su yi sujada ga wani allah sai dai Allahnsu.
Nebuchadnezzar has answered and has said, “Blessed [is] the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who has sent His messenger, and has delivered His servants who trusted on Him.” And the word of the king changed, and gave up their bodies that they might not serve nor pay respect to any god except to their own God.
29 Domin haka ina ba da doka cewa duk mutane da kowace al’umma ko kowane yaren da ya ce wani abu mummuna a kan Allahn Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego za a yanka shi gunduwa-gunduwa kuma gidansu zai zama wurin zuba shara, domin babu wani allahn da zai iya ceto ta irin wannan hanya.”
“And by me a decree is made, that any people, nation, and language, that speaks erroneously concerning the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, he is made pieces, and its house is made a dunghill, because that there is no other god who is able thus to deliver.”
30 Sa’an nan sarki ya ƙara wa su Shadrak, Meshak da Abednego girma a yankin Babilon.
Then the king has caused Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to prosper in the province of Babylon.
