< Daniela 2 >

1 I KA makahiki elua o ke au ia Nebukaneza, ua moe uhane o Nebukaneza, a anoninoni iho la kona uhane, hiaa loa iho la kona hiamoe.
And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, whereat his spirit was troubled, and his sleep that was upon him was gone.
2 Alaila, kauoha aku la ke alii e kii aku i na magoi, a me ka poe kilo, a me ka poe hoopiopio, a me ka poe Kaledea, i hoakaka mai lakou i ke alii i kana moe. A hele mai lakou a ku iho la imua o ke alii.
Then said the king to call the magicians, and the astrologers and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, to solve for the king his dreams: and they came and placed themselves before the king.
3 I aku la ke alii ia lakou, Ua moe uhane au i ka moe, a pihoihoi iho la kuu uhane e ike i ua moe la.
And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.
4 Ekemu mai la ka poe Kaledea i ke alii ma ka olelo Suria, E ola mau loa ke alii: E hai mai oe i kau poe kauwa i ua moe la, a na makou ia e hoakaka aku.
Then spoke the Chaldeans to the king in Aramic, O king, live for ever: recite the dream to thy servants, and we will tell the interpretation.
5 Olelo aku la ke alii i ka poe Kaledea, i aku la, Ua paa kuu olelo, ina aole oukou e hai mai i ka moe a me kona ano, e okioki liilii ia oukou, a o ko oukou mau hale e liloia i hooleina moka.
The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The decree is firmly resolved on by me: If ye do not make known unto me the dream with its interpretation, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be changed into a dunghill.
6 Aka, e hai mai oukou ia'u i ka moe a me kona hoike, alaila e loaa ia oukou ka makana, a me ka uku, a me ka hanohano nui no'u aku; no ia mea, e hai mai i ka moe, a me kona hoike.
But if ye tell the dream and its interpretation, then shall ye receive gifts and rewards and great honor from me. Therefore tell me the dream and its interpretation.
7 Ekemu hou mai la lakou, i mai, E hai mai ke alii i kana poe kauwa i ka moe, a na makou ia e hoakaka aku.
They answered the second time and said, Let the king recite the dream to his servants, and we will tell its interpretation.
8 Olelo aku ke alii, i aku la, Ua ike au, he oiaio no, ke makemake nei oukou, e hooloihi i ka manawa, no ka mea, ua ike oukou ua paa kuu olelo.
The king answered and said, I know of a certainty that ye wish to gain time, because ye see the decree is firmly resolved on by me:
9 Aka, ke hoakaka ole mai oukou ia'u i ka moe, hookahi mea paa no oukou; no ka mea, ua hoomakaukau oukou i na olelo wahahee a me ka lapuwale e hai mai imua o'u, a ano hou ae la ka manawa; no ia mea, e hai mai ia'u i ka moe, alaila ua moakaka ia'u, e hiki ia oukou ke hoomaopopo mai i ke ano.
That if ye do not make known unto me the dream, there is but one sentence for you; for ye have prepared lying and deceptive words to speak before me, till the time be changed. Therefore relate to me the dream, and I shall know that ye can tell me its interpretation.
10 Alaila, ekemu hou mai ka poe Kaledea imua o ke alii, i mai la, Aohe kanaka ma ka honua e hiki ia ia ke hoakaka i ka ke alii mea; aole alii, aole haku, aole luna, i koi aku i ke kilo, a me ka magoi, a me ke Kaledea i na mea e like me keia.
The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the habitable earth that can tell the king's matter: wherefore no mighty and powerful king ever hath asked such a thing of any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.
11 A he mea pohihihi keia mea a ke alii i koi mai nei: aole loa he mea e hiki ke hoakaka ia mea imua o ke alii, aka, o na akua wale no, na mea i noho pu olo me kanaka.
And the matter which the king requireth is difficult, and there is no other that can tell it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
12 No keia mea, huhu iho la ke alii a ukiuki loa, a kauoha aku la oia e luku aku i ka poe naauao a pau ma Babulona.
For all this cause the king became angry, and very furious; and he commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
13 A holo ka olelo e lukuia ka poe naauao a pau; a imiia iho la o Daniela a me kona mau hoa e pepehiia'i lakou.
And the law went forth and [some of] the wise men were slain: and they sought Daniel and his companions to slay them.
14 Alaila, olelo aku la o Daniela me ka noonoo, a me ka naauao ia Arioka, i ka luna o ka poe ilamuku o ke alii, ka poe i hele aku e pepehi i ka poe naauao ma Babulona.
Then made Daniel representations with intelligence and prudence to Aryoch the captain of the king's guard, who was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon.
15 I aku la oia ia Arioka i ka luna o ke alii, i aku, No ke aha la ka holo wawe ana o ka olelo a ke alii? Alaila hoakaka mai la o Arioka ia Daniela i ua mea la.
He commenced and said to Aryoch the king's commander, Wherefore is the law so hasty from the king? Then made Aryoch the matter known to Daniel.
16 Alaila, komo ae la o Daniela, a noi aku la i ko alii e haawi mai ia ia i kekahi manawa, a e hoakaka aku no oia i ke alii i ka hoike.
But Daniel went in, and requested of the king that he would give him time, that he might tell the interpretation to the king.
17 Alaila, hele aku la o Daniela i kona hale, a hoike aku ia mea ia Hanania, a me Misaela, a me Azaria, kona mau hoa;
Then went Daniel to his house, and made the matter known to Chananyah, Mishael, and 'Azaryah, his companions.
18 I noi aku lakou i ke aloha no ke Akua mai o ka lani, no keia mea i ike ole ia, i ole e make pu o Daniela a me kona mau hoa me na kanaka naauao e ae ma Babulona.
In order that they might pray for mercy of the God of heaven concerning this secret: so that Daniel and his companions might not be destroyed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
19 Alaila, ua hoakakaia mai ua mea ike ole ia la ia Daniela, ma ke akaku i ka po. A hoomaikai aku la o Daniela i ke Akua o ka lani.
Thereupon was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a vision of the night. Then did Daniel bless the God of heaven.
20 Olelo aku o Daniela, i aku la, E hoomaikaiia ka inoa o ke Akua ia ao aku ia ao aku; no ka mea, nona ka naauao a me ka mana;
Daniel commenced and said, May the name of God be blessed from eternity and to all eternity; for wisdom and might are his;
21 Nana no i hoololi mai i na wa a me na kau; nana no i kipaku aku i na'lii, a hooku hoi iluna i na'lii: haawi mai no hoi oia i ka naauao no ka poe naauao, a me ka ike no ka poe ike.
And he changeth times and seasons; he removeth kings, and raiseth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to those that possess understanding.
22 Ua hoakaka mai oia i na mea hohonu a me na mea i ike ole ia. Ua ike oia i na mea ma ka pouli, a me ia pu no ka malamalama.
He it is that revealeth what is deep and secret; he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
23 Ke hoomaikai aku nei au ia oe, e ke Akua o ko'u poe kupuna, ke hoolea aku nei au ia oe, ka mea i haawi mai ia'u i ka naauao a me ka ikaika, ka mea i hoakaka mai i na mea a makou i noi aku ai ia oe; no ka mea, ua hoakaka mai oe ia makou i ka ke alii mea.
To thee, O God of my father, do I give thanks, and I praise thee, who hast given me wisdom and might, and because thou hast made known unto me what we prayed for of thee; for thou hast made known unto us the king's matter.
24 Alaila, hele aku la o Daniela io Arioka la, i ka mea a ke alii i hoonoho ai e pepehi i ka poe naauao ma Babulona; i aku la ia ia, Mai pepehi i ka poe naauao o Babulona; e alakai oe ia'u imua i ke alo o ke alii, a na'u no e hoakaka i ke alii i ka hoike.
Therefore did Daniel go in unto Aryoch, whom the king had ordered to destroy the wise men of Babylon, He went and said thus unto him, the wise men of Babylon must thou not destroy: bring me before the king, and I will tell unto the king the interpretation.
25 Alaila, wikiwiki iho la o Arioka i ke alakai ia Daniela imua o ke alii; i aku la ia ia, Ua loaa ia'u ke kanaka no ka poe pio o Iuda, oia ka mea nana e hoakaka i ke alii i ka hoike.
Then did Aryoch bring Daniel before the king in haste, and thus he said unto him, Here have I found a man out of the children of the exiles of Judah, who will make known unto the king the interpretation.
26 Olelo mai la ke alii ia Daniela, i ka mea i kapaia o Beletesaza, i mai, E hiki anei ia oe, ke hoakaka mai ia'u i ka moe uhane a'u i ike ai a me kona ano?
The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto me the dream which I have seen, and its interpretation?
27 Olelo aku la o Daniela imua i ke alo o ke alii, i aku, O ka mea ikea ole a ke alii i koi mai ai, aole e hiki i ka poe naauao, a me ka poe akamai, a me ka poe magoi, a me na kilokilolani ke hoakaka i ke alii;
Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded no wise men, astrologers, magicians, or soothsayers, can tell unto the king;
28 Aka, aia ma ka lani ke Akua, ka mea e hoike mai i na mea i ike ole ia; oia ka mea e hoike mai i ke alii, ia Nebukaneza i na mea o hiki mai ana i na la mahope. O kau moe uhane, a me ka lia o kou poo ma kou wahi moe, penei no ia;
But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and he hath made known to king Nebuchadnezzar what is to be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy couch, were these.
29 A o oe, e ke alii, ua kupu kou manao ma kou wahi moe, no na mea e hiki mai ana mahope: a o ka mea hoike i na mea i ikea ole, nana no e hoakaka mai ia oe i na mea e hiki mai ana:
As for thee, O king, thy thoughts, when thou wast on thy couch, rose [within thee] concerning what is to come to pass hereafter; and the Revealer of secrets hath made known to thee what is to come to pass.
30 A owau nei hoi, aole i hoakakaia mai ia'u keia mea ikea ole, no ka oi ana o ka naauao iloko o'u mamua o ko kekahi mea e ola ana; aka, i hoakakaia aku ai i ke alii ka hoike, a i ike no hoi oe i ka manao o kou naau iho.
But as for me, this secret hath not been revealed to me because of any wisdom that is in me more than in all other living; but for the sake that men might make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest understand the thoughts of thy heart.
31 O oe, e ke alii, ua ike oe, aia hoi, he kii nui. O ua kii la, he mea e kona olinolino, ua ku mai ia imua ou, a o kona helehelena he mea weliweli loa ia.
Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was a large image; this image was mighty, and its brightness was excellent; it stood opposite to thee; and its form was fear-inspiring.
32 O ke poo o ua kii la, he gula maemae ia, o kona umauma a me na lima he kala ia, o kona opu a me na uha he keleawe ia.
As regardeth this image, its head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms were of silver, its belly and its thighs of copper,
33 O kona mau wawae he hao ia, a o kona mau kapuwai he hao kekahi, a he palolo kekahi.
Its legs of iron, its feet part of them of iron and part of them of clay.
34 Ike aku la oe, aia hoi, he pohaku i kalai lima ole ia, oia ka i kui mai i ua kii la ma kona mau kapuwai hao me ka palolo, a weluwelu iho ia.
Thou didst look on till the moment that a stone tore itself loose, not through [human] hands, and it struck the image upon its feet that were of iron and clay, and ground them to pieces.
35 Alaila, ua okaoka loa iho la ka hao, a me ka palolo, a me ke keleawe, ke kala, a me ke gula; a ua lilo lakou me he opala la ma ke kahua hehi o ke kau: a ua puhiia hoi e ka makani, aole wahi i loaa no lakou; aka, o ua pohaku la i kui i ke kii, ua lilo ia i mauna nui a piha ka honua ia ia.
Then were the iron, the clay, the copper, the silver, and the gold ground up together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing-floors; and the wind carried them away, that no trace was found of them; and the stone that had stricken the image became a mighty mountain, and filled the whole earth.
36 Oia iho no ua moe la; a e hoakaka aku hoi makou i kona hoike imua o ke alii.
This is the dream; and its interpretation will we relate before the king.
37 O oe no, e ke alii, he alii oe o na'lii; a ua haawi mai no ke Akua o ka lani ia oe i ke aupuni, a me ka mana, a me ka ikaika, a me ka hanohano.
Thou, O king, art a king of kings, to whom the God of heaven hath given kingdom, power, and strength, and honor:
38 A ma na wahi a pau i nohoia e na kanaka, ua haawi oia i na holoholona o ke kula, a me na manu o ka lewa iloko o kou lima, a ua hooalii mai ia oe maluna o na mea a pau. O oe no ua poo gula la.
And wheresoever the children of men dwell, hath he given the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven into thy hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art the head of gold.
39 A mahope o kou e hookuia ana he aupuni e, ua emi mai ia mahope o kou; a o ke kolu o ke aupuni [e hookuia mai] he keleawe ia; oia ka mea e alii ana maluna o ka honua a pau.
And after thee there will arise another kingdom inferior to thee; and another third kingdom of copper, which will bear rule over all the earth.
40 A o ka ha o ke aupuni e like auanei kona ikaika me he hao la: no ka. mea, o ka hao ka mea e weluwelu ai, a e okaoka loa ai na mea a pau; a e like me ka hao i hooweluwelu liilii ai i keia mau mea a pau, pela no oia e okaoka loa ai.
And the fourth kingdom will be as strong as iron; forasmuch as iron grindeth up and beateth down all things, and as iron that breaketh [every thing], will it grind up and break all these.
41 A i kou ike ana i na kapuwai a me na manamana wawae he palolo a ka potera kekahi, a he hao kekahi, e maheleia ana ke aupuni; aka, o ka ikaika o ka hao kekahi mea iloko ona, e like me kou ike ana i ka hao i huipuia'i me ka palolo.
And that thou sawest the feet and toes, and part of them of potter's clay, and part of them of iron, [signifieth] that it will be a divided kingdom, although there will be in it of the strength of the iron; forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mingled with miry clay.
42 E like me ua mau manamana wawae la he hao kekahi a he palolo kekahi, pela keia aupuni, he ikaika kekahi, a he nawaliwali kekahi.
And as the toes of the feet were part of them of iron, and part of them of clay: so will the kingdom be partly strong and partly brittle.
43 A me kou ike ana i ka hao i huipuia me ka palolo, pela lakou i huipuia'i me ka hua o kanaka; aole nae e pili pono kekahi i kekahi, e like me ka hao, aole pili pono i ka palolo.
And whereas thou sawest iron mingled with miry clay: so will they mingle themselves among the seed of men; but they will not cleave firmly one to another, even as iron cannot be mingled with clay.
44 Ma na la o keia poe alii, e kukulu mai ai ke Akua o ka lani i aupuni mau loa, aole hoi e hoohioloia ia aupuni; aole nae ia e lilo no ka lahuikanaka e, aka, ia ia no e weluwelu hilii auanei a okaoka loa keia mau aupuni a pau, a e mau loa aku ana no ia.
But in the days of these kings will the God of heaven set up a kingdom: which shall to eternity not be destroyed, and its rule shall not be transferred to any other people; [but] it will grind up and make an end of all these kingdoms, while it will itself endure for ever.
45 A i kou ike ana i ua pohaku la i kalai lima ole ia'i mailoko mai o ka mauna, i weluwelu liilii ai ka hao, a me ke keleawe, a me ka palolo, a me ke kala, a me ke gula; oia ko ke Akua kiekie hoike ana mai i ke alii i na mea e hiki mai ana mahope; ua oiaio ka moe, a o kona hoike ua paa loa ia.
Whereas thou sawest that out of the mountain a stone tore itself loose, not through [human] hands, and that it ground up the iron, the copper, the clay, the silver, and the gold: the great God hath made known to the king what is to come to pass after this. And the dream is reliable, and its interpretation certain.
46 Alaila, moe iho la o Nebukaneza ke alii ilalo ka maka, a hoomana aku la ia Daniela; a kauoha aku la oia i mohai aku lakou ia ia i ka mohai a me na mea ala.
Then did king Nebuchadnezzar fall upon his face, and he bowed down to Daniel, and ordered that they should offer an oblation and sweet odors unto him.
47 Olelo mai la ke alii ia Daniela, i mai, He oiaio no o ko oukou Akua he Akua ia o na akua, a he Haku o na'lii, oia hoi ka mea e hoakaka mai i na mea i ike ole ia, no ka mea, ia oe no e hiki ai ke hoakaka mai i keia mea i ike ole ia.
The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth it is, that your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and the revealer of secrets; because thou hast been able to reveal this secret.
48 Alaila, hoolilo ae la ke alii ia Daniela i kanaka nui, haawi hoi ia ia i na makana he nui wale, a hoolilo ia ia i kiaaina o na aina a pau ma Babulona, a i luna hoi maluna o ka poe naauao a pau o Babulona.
Then did the king elevate Daniel, and gave him many great presents, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the superintendents over all the wise men of Babylon.
49 A noi aku la o Daniela i ke alii, a hoonoho iho la oia ia Saderaka, a me Mesaka, a me Abedenego, maluna o ka oihana e pili ana i ka aina o Babulona: aka, o Daniela ua nobo ia ma ka ipuka o ke alii.
Then requested Daniel of the king, that he might appoint Shadrach, Meshach, and 'Abed-nego, over the public service of the province of Babylon; but Daniel remained in the gate of the king.
