1 A Shekara ta uku ta mulki Yehohiyakim sarkin Yahuda, Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ya zo Urushalima ya kuma yi mata ƙawanya.
‌ʻI hono tolu ʻoe taʻu ʻoe pule ʻa Sihoiakimi, ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, naʻe haʻu ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki Selūsalema, pea tauʻi ia.
2 Sai Ubangiji ya bashe Yehohiyakim sarkin Yahuda a hannunsa, tare da waɗansu kayayyakin haikalin Allah. Ya ɗauki waɗannan kayan zuwa cikin haikalin allahnsa a Babilon cikin ma’ajin gidan allahnsa.
Pea naʻe tuku ʻe he ʻEiki ʻa Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki hono nima, mo e ngaahi ipu niʻihi ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻOtua; ʻaia naʻa ne ʻave ki he fonua, ko Saina, ki he fale ʻo hono ʻotua; pea ne ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ipu ki he feleoko ʻo hono ʻotua.
3 Sa’an nan sarkin ya umarci Ashfenaz, shugaban fadarsa yă kawo waɗansu daga cikin Isra’ilawan da suka fito daga gidan sarauta da kuma na fitattun mutane.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi kia ʻAsipinasi, ko e ʻeiki ʻo ʻene kau talifekau, ke ne ʻomai ha niʻihi ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea mo e hako ʻoe tuʻi, pea mo e ngaahi houʻeiki:
4 Matasa maza waɗanda ba su da wata naƙasa kuma kyawawa, hazikai ta kowace hanyar koyo, sanannu, masu saurin fahimtar abu, da kuma waɗanda suka cancanci su yi aiki a fadar sarki. Zai koya musu harshen Babiloniyawa da kuma littattafansu.
Ko e fānau taʻehaʻila kae matamatalelei, pea poto ʻi he ngaahi poto kotoa pē, pea ʻiloʻi ʻae ngaahi ʻilo, mo poto ʻi he ngaahi poto ʻoku ako, pea mo kinautolu naʻe maʻu ʻae faʻa fai ʻiate kinautolu ke tuʻu ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi, ke ako kiate kinautolu ʻae poto mo e lea ʻae kau Kalitia.
5 Sarki kuma ya sa a ba su abinci da ruwan inabi kowace rana daga cikin abincin sarki. Za a koyar da su har shekaru uku, bayan haka kuma su shiga yin wa sarki hidima.
Pea ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻe he tuʻi ki ai ʻae tufakanga meʻakai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, ʻi he meʻakai ʻae tuʻi, pea mo e uaine ʻaia naʻa ne inu: ʻo tauhi pehē ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu, koeʻuhi ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo ia ke nau tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
6 Daga cikin waɗannan da aka zaɓa akwai waɗansu daga Yahuda, Daniyel, Hananiya, Mishayel da kuma Azariya.
Pea naʻe ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi he fānau ʻo Siuta, ʻa Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia.
7 Sai sarkin fada ya raɗa musu sababbin sunaye, ga Daniyel ya raɗa masa Belteshazar; ga Hananiya ya raɗa masa Shadrak; ga Mishayel ya raɗa masa Meshak; ga Azariya kuma ya raɗa masa Abednego.
‌ʻAkinautolu naʻe ʻai ki ʻai ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau ʻae ngaahi hingoa, he naʻa ne ʻai kia Taniela ʻae hingoa ko Pelitisasa, pea kia Hanania ko Seteleki, pea kia Misaeli ko Mesake, pea kia ʻAsalia, ko ʻApetiniko.
8 Amma Daniyel ya ƙudura a zuciyarsa ba zai ƙazantar da kansa da abinci da ruwan inabin sarki ba, sai ya tambayi sarkin fada don a ba shi izinin kada yă ƙazantar da kansa ta wannan hanya.
Ka naʻe fakapapau ʻa Taniela ʻi hono loto, ʻe ʻikai te ne fakaʻuliʻi ʻe ia ia, ʻaki ʻae tufakanga meʻakai ʻoe tuʻi pe ko e uaine naʻa ne inu: ko ia naʻa ne kole ki he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ke ʻoua naʻa ne fakaʻuliʻi ʻe ia ia.
9 Sai Allah ya sa sarkin fada ya nuna masa tagomashi ya kuma ƙaunaci Daniyel,
Pea ko eni, kuo fakatupu ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi he loto ʻoe ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ʻae lelei mo e ʻofa mamahi kia Taniela.
10 amma sai sarkin fada ya ce wa Daniyel, “Ina jin tsoron ranka yă daɗe, sarkina wanda ya sa a ba ku abinci da ruwan inabi. Me zai sa yă ga kuna ramewa fiye da sauran samari, tsaranku? Sarki zai sa a fille mini kai saboda ku.”
Pea ne pehē ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau kia Taniela, “ʻOku ou manavahē ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻaia kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻa hoʻomou meʻakai, mo hoʻomou inu, ko e hā ka mamata ai ia ki homou mata ʻoku matamata kovi ʻi he fānau, ʻaia ʻoku mou faʻahinga ki ai? Ka pehē te mou fakatuputāmaki ke tō ki hoku ʻulu mei he tuʻi.”
11 Sai Daniyel ya ce wa mai gadi wanda sarkin fada ya sa yă kula da Daniyel, Hananiya, Mishayel da Azariya,
Pea ne pehē ʻe Taniela kia Melasa, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ke pule kia Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia,
12 “Ina roƙonka ka gwada bayinka kwana goma. Kada ka ba mu kome sai kayan lambu mu ci da kuma baƙin ruwa mu sha.
‌ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke ʻahiʻahi ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu, pea ke nau tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae sepo, ke mau kai, mo e vai ke mau inu.
13 Sa’an nan sai ka dubi fuskokinmu da na sauran samarin da suke ci daga abincin sarki; sa’an nan ka yi da bayinka bisa ga abin da ka gani.”
Pea tuku ke vakai ki homau mata ʻi ho ʻao, pea mo e mata ʻoe fānau ʻoku kai ʻae tufakanga ʻoe meʻakai ʻae tuʻi: pea hangē ko hoʻo mamata, fai ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki.”
14 Sai ya amince da haka ya kuma gwada su har kwana goma.
Pea pehē, naʻa ne tokanga kiate kinautolu ʻi he meʻa ni, pea ne ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu.
15 A ƙarshen kwana goma sai aka ga fuskokinsu suna sheƙi, sun kuma yi ƙiba fiye da samarin da suke cin abinci irin na sarki.
Pea ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe ʻaho ʻe hongofulu, naʻe matamatalelei hake mo sino ʻa honau mata ʻi he fānau kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe kai ʻae tufakanga ʻoe meʻakai ʻae tuʻi.
16 Sai mai gadinsu ya janye abinci da ruwan inabi irin na sarki, ya ci gaba da ba su kayan lambu.
Ko ia naʻe ʻave ʻe Melasa ʻa ʻenau tufakanga meʻakai, pea mo e uaine naʻe tuku ke nau inu, pea ne tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae sepo.
17 Ga samarin nan guda huɗu Allah ya ba su sani da ganewar dukan irin littattafai da kuma koyarwa. Daniyel kuma ya iya gane wahayi da kowane irin mafarki.
Pea ko e kau talavou ʻe toko fā ni, naʻe foaki ʻe he ʻOtua kiate kinautolu ʻae ʻilo mo e mafai, ʻi he ngaahi ʻiloʻilo kotoa pē mo e poto, pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Taniela ʻae ʻiloʻi ʻoe ngaahi meʻa hā mai kotoa pē, mo e ngaahi misi.
18 A ƙarshen lokacin da sarki ya sa da za a kawo su ciki, sai sarkin fada ya gabatar da su ga Nebukadnezzar.
Pea ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe ngaahi ʻaho naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi, ke ne ʻomi ki loto ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻomi ki loto ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ki he ʻao ʻo Nepukanesa.
19 Sarki kuwa ya yi magana da su, sai ya gano cewa babu wani kamar Daniyel, Hananiya, Mishayel da kuma Azariya; don haka sai suka shiga yi wa sarki hidima.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi mo kinautolu; pea ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē, naʻe ʻikai ke ʻilo ha niʻihi ʻoku tatau mo Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia: ko ia naʻe tuʻu ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Nepukanesa.
20 A dukan al’amuran hikima da na fahimta wanda sarki ya tambaye su, ya tarar sun fi dukan masu sihiri da bokaye waɗanda suke cikin mulkinsa sau goma.
Pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoe poto, mo e ʻilo ʻaia naʻe fehuʻi ai ʻae tuʻi kiate kinautolu, naʻa ne ʻiloʻi ʻakinautolu, ne nau lelei hake ʻo liunga hongofulu, ʻi he kau fiemana, mo e kau ʻasitolōnoma kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe ʻi hono puleʻanga kotoa pē.
21 Daniyel kuwa ya kasance a nan har shekara ta farko ta mulkin sarki Sairus.
Pea naʻe kei ʻi ai pe ʻa Taniela, ʻo aʻu ki hono ʻuluaki taʻu ʻoe tuʻi ko Kolesi.
