< Daniyel 5 >

1 Sarki Belshazar ya yi babban biki domin dubban hakimansa ya kuma sha ruwan inabi tare da su.
Belshazzar, the king, made a great feast for a thousand of his nobles, and each one of them drank according to his age.
2 Yayinda Belshazar yake shan ruwan inabi, sai ya umarta a kawo zinariya da azurfan da Nebukadnezzar mahaifinsa ya kwaso daga haikali a Urushalima, saboda sarki da hakimansa, da matansa da ƙwarƙwaransa su sha da su.
And so, when they were drunk, he instructed that the vessels of gold and silver should be brought, which Nebuchadnezzar, his father, had carried away from the temple, which was in Jerusalem, so that the king, and his nobles, and his wives, and the concubines, might drink from them.
3 Sai suka kawo kayan zinariyan nan da aka kwaso daga haikalin Allah a Urushalima, sarki kuwa da hakimansa, da matansa, da ƙwarƙwaransa suka yi ta sha da su.
Then the gold and silver vessels were presented, which he had carried away from the temple and which had been in Jerusalem, and the king, and his nobles, wives, and concubines, drank from them.
4 Yayinda suke shan ruwan inabin, sai suka yabi allolin zinariya da azurfa, da na tagulla, da na ƙarfe, da na itace da kuma na dutse.
They drank wine, and they praised their gods of gold, and silver, brass, iron, and wood and stone.
5 Nan da nan sai ga yatsotsin hannun mutum sun bayyana, suna yin rubutu a kan shafen bangon, kusa da wurin da ake ajiye fitilar fadar sarki. Sarki kuwa yana ganin hannun yayinda yake rubutu.
In the same hour, there appeared fingers, as of the hand of a man, writing on the surface of the wall, opposite the candlestick, in the king’s palace. And the king observed the part of the hand that wrote.
6 Sai fuskarsa ta ruɗe, ya kuma ji tsoro ƙwarai har gwiwoyinsa suka yi ta bugun juna, ƙafafunsa kuma suka rasa ƙarfi.
Then the king’s countenance was changed, and his thoughts disturbed him, and he lost his self-control, and his knees knocked against one other.
7 Sai sarki ya kira masu dabo, masanan taurari da masu duba, a kawo su, ya kuma ce wa masu hikima na Babilon, “Duk wanda ya karanta wannan rubutu ya kuma faɗa mini abin da yake nufi, za a sa masa rigar shunayya, a kuma sa masa sarƙar zinariya a wuyansa, zai zama na uku a cikin masu mulkin ƙasar.”
And the king cried out loudly for them to bring in the astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers. And the king proclaimed to the wise men of Babylon, saying, “Whoever will read this writing and make known to me its interpretation will be clothed with purple, and will have a golden chain on his neck, and will be third in my kingdom.”
8 Sa’an nan sai dukan masu hikima suka zo ciki, amma ba su iya karanta rubutun ba ko su faɗa wa sarki abin da yake nufi.
Then, in came all the wise men of the king, but they could neither read the writing, nor reveal the interpretation to the king.
9 Saboda haka Sarki Belshazar ya firgita ƙwarai kuma fuskarsa ta ƙara ruɗewa. Hakimansa kuma suka rikice.
Therefore, king Belshazzar was quite confused, and his face was altered, and even his nobles were disturbed.
10 Sai sarauniya, da jin muryoyi na sarki da na hakimansa, ta shiga babban ɗakin liyafar. Ta ce, “Ya sarki, ranka yă daɗe! Kada ka firgita! Kada fuskarka ta ruɗe!
But the queen, because of what had happened to the king and his nobles, entered the banquet house. And she spoke out, saying, “O king, live forever. Do not let your thoughts confuse you, neither should your face be altered.
11 Akwai wani mutum a masarautarka wanda yake da ruhun alloli masu tsarki a cikinsa. A zamanin mahaifinka an gane cewa yana da basira da hazaka da hikima kamar na alloli. Sarki Nebukadnezzar mahaifinka, mahaifinka sarki, na ce, ya naɗa shugaban masu dabo, da masu sihiri, masanan taurari da kuma masu duba.
There is a man in your kingdom, who has the spirit of the holy gods within himself, and in the days of your father, knowledge and wisdom were found in him. For king Nebuchadnezzar, your father, appointed him leader of the astrologers, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers, even your father, I say to you, O king.
12 Wannan mutum Daniyel, wanda sarki ya kira Belteshazar, an gane yana da ruhu nagari, da ilimi, da ganewa don yin fassarar mafarkai, da bayyana ma’anar kacici-kacici, da warware al’amura masu wuya. Ka kira Daniyel shi kuwa zai faɗa maka abin da rubutun nan yake nufi.”
For a greater spirit, and foresight, and understanding, and interpretation of dreams, and the revealing of secrets, and the solution to difficulties were found in him, that is, in Daniel, to whom the king gave the name Belteshazzar. Now, therefore, let Daniel be summoned, and he will explain the interpretation.”
13 Saboda haka aka kawo Daniyel a gaban sarki, sai sarki ya ce masa, “Kai ne Daniyel ɗin nan, ɗaya daga cikin kamammu waɗanda mahaifina sarki ya kawo daga Yahuda?
Then Daniel was brought in before the king. And the king spoke to him, saying, “Are you Daniel, of the sons of the captivity of Judah, whom my father the king led out of Judea?
14 Na sami labari cewa kana da ruhun alloli a cikinka da kuma basira, da hazaka da kuma fitacciyar hikima.
I have heard of you, that you have the spirit of the gods, and that greater knowledge, as well as understanding and wisdom, have been found in you.
15 An kawo masu hikima da masu dabo a gabana domin su karanta wannan rubutu su kuma faɗa mini abin da yake nufi, amma ba su iya ba.
And now the wise astrologers have entered into my presence, so as to read this writing and to reveal to me its interpretation. And they were not able to tell me the meaning of this writing.
16 Na sami labari cewa kana iya ba da fassara da kuma warware matsaloli masu wuya. In har ka iya karanta wannan rubutun ka kuma faɗa mini abin da yake nufi, za a sa maka riga shunayya, a kuma sa sarƙar zinariya a wuyanka. Za ka zama na uku a cikin masu mulkin ƙasar.”
Furthermore, I have heard about you that you can interpret obscure things and solve difficulties. So then, if you succeed in reading the writing, and in revealing its interpretation, you will be clothed with purple, and you will have a chain of gold around your neck, and you will be the third leader in my kingdom.”
17 Sai Daniyel ya amsa wa sarki ya ce, “Za ka iya ajiye kyautar wa kanka ko kuma ka ba wa wani. Duk da haka, zan karanta wa sarki rubutun, in kuma faɗa abin da yake nufi.
To this Daniel responded by saying directly to the king, “Your rewards should be for yourself, and the gifts of your house you may give to another, but I will read to you the writing, O king, and I will reveal to you its interpretation.
18 “Ya sarki, Allah Mafi Ɗaukaka ya ba mahaifinka Nebukadnezzar sarauta, da girma, da ɗaukaka, da martaba.
O king, the Most High God gave to Nebuchadnezzar, your father, a kingdom and greatness, glory and honor.
19 Saboda irin matsayin da ya ba shi, dukan mutane da al’ummai da kuma dukan harsuna suka ji tsoronsa suka yi rawar jiki a gabansa. Bisa ga ganin damarsa yakan kashe wani, ya bar wani da rai, haka kuma yakan ɗaukaka wani, ya ƙasƙantar da wani.
And because of the greatness that he gave to him, all peoples, tribes, and languages trembled and were afraid of him. Whomever he wished, he put to death; and whomever he wished, he destroyed; and whomever he wished, he exalted; and whomever he wished, he lowered.
20 Amma da lokacin da zuciyarsa ta cika da girman kai ta kuma taurare, sai aka kore shi daga gadon sarautarsa, aka raba shi kuma da darajarsa.
But when his heart was lifted up and his spirit was hardened in arrogance, he was deposed from the throne of his kingdom and his glory was taken away.
21 Aka kore shi daga cikin mutane aka kuma ba shi tunani irin na dabba; ya yi zama tare da jakunan jeji, ya kuma ci ciyawa kamar shanu; jikinsa kuma ya jiƙe da raɓa, har zuwa lokacin da ya gane, ashe, Allah Maɗaukaki ne mai iko duka a kan dukan mulkoki a duniya, yake kuma ba da mulki ga duk wanda ya ga dama.
And he was expelled from the sons of men, and so his heart was placed with the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys, and he ate hay like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he realized that the Most High holds power over the kingdom of men, and that whoever he wishes, he will set over it.
22 “Amma kai ɗansa, Ya Belshazar, ba ka ƙasƙantar da kanka ba, ko da yake ka san wannan duka.
Likewise, you, his son Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all these things.
23 A maimakon, sai ka nuna wa Ubangiji na sama girman kai. Ka sa aka kawo maka su kwaf na zinariya daga haikalinsa, da kai da hakimanka, da matanka da ƙwarƙwaranka kuka sha ruwan inabi da su. Kuka yabi allolin zinariya da na azurfa, da na tagulla, da na baƙin ƙarfe, da na itace, da na dutse waɗanda ba sa ji, ba sa gani, ba sa da gane kome. Amma ba ka girmama Allah ba, wanda ranka da dukan harkokinka suna a hannunsa.
But you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven. And the vessels of his house have been presented before you. And you, and your nobles, and your wives, and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. Likewise, you have praised the gods of silver, and gold, and brass, iron, and wood and stone, who neither see, nor hear, nor feel, yet you have not glorified the God who holds your breath and all your ways in his hand.
24 Saboda haka ya aiko da hannun da ya yi rubutun nan.
Therefore, he has sent the part of the hand which has written this, which has been inscribed.
25 “Wannan shi ne rubutun da aka yi, Mene, mene, tekel, farsin
But this is the writing that has been decreed: MANE, THECEL, PHARES.
26 “Abin da kalmomin nan suke nufi shi ne, “Mene, Allah ya ƙayyade yawan kwanakin mulkinka ya kuma kawo su ga ƙarshe.
And this is the interpretation of the words. MANE: God has numbered your kingdom and has finished it.
27 “Tekel, An kuma auna ka a ma’auni aka tarar ka kāsa.
THECEL: you have been weighed on the scales and found lacking.
28 “Feres, An raba mulkinka aka ba wa Medes da Farisa.”
PHARES: your kingdom has been divided and has been given to the Medes and the Persians.
29 Sai Belshazar ya umarta, aka sa wa Daniyel riga mai shunayya, aka sa sarƙar zinariya a wuyansa, aka kuma yi shela, cewa yanzu shi ne na uku a cikin masu mulkin ƙasar.
Then, by the king’s command, Daniel was dressed with purple, and a chain of gold was placed around his neck, and it was proclaimed of him that he held power as the third in the kingdom.
30 A wannan dare aka kashe Belshazar, sarkin Babiloniyawa,
That same night, king Belshazzar the Chaldean was killed.
31 Dariyus mutumin Medes kuwa ya karɓi mulkin, yana da shekara sittin da biyu.
And Darius the Mede succeeded to the kingdom, at the age of sixty-two years.
