< Daniela 5 >

1 HANA iho la o Belehazara ke alii i ahaaina nui no kona poe alii hookahi tausani, a inu oia i ka waina imua o ua tausaui la.
Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
2 A i ko Belehazara hoao iki ana i ka waina, kauoha mai la oia e lawe mai i na kiaha gula, a me ke kala, na mea a Nebukaneza kona makuakane i lawe mai ai mai ka luakini ma Ierusalema mai; i inu ai ke alii, a me kona poe alii, a me kana mau wahine, a me na haiawahine ana iloko o ia mau mea.
Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which [was] in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein.
3 Alaila lawe mai lakou i na kiaha gula, na mea i laweia, mai ka luakiui ka hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema; a inu iho la malaila ke alii, a me kona poe alii, a me na wahine ana, a me kana mau haiawahine:
Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which [was] at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them.
4 Inu iho la lakou i ka waina, a hoomaikai lakou i na akua o ke gula, o ke kala, o ke keleawe, o ka hao, o ka laau, a o ka pohaku.
They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
5 Ia hora no, puka mai la na manamana lima kanaka, a kakau iho la maluna ae o ka ipukukui ma ka puna o ka paia o ko ke alii hale; a ike aku la ke alii i ka hapa o ka lima e kakau ana.
In the same hour came forth fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
6 Alaila ano e ae la ko ke alii maka, a pihoihoi iho la kona manao; ua naka wale iho la ke ami o kona papakole, a puke kona mau kuli i kekahi i kekahi.
Then the king’s countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.
7 A kahea aku la ke alii me ka leo nui i alakaiia mai na hoopiopio, a me ka poe Kaledea, a me na kilokilo. Olelo aku la ke alii i ka poe naauao o Babulona, i aku la, O ka mea nana e heluhelu i keia palapala, a e hoakaka mai i ke ano, e hoaahuia oia i ke kapa ulaula, a e kauia ka lei gala ma kona a-i, a e hooliloia oia o ke kolu o na'lii ma ke aupuni.
The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. [And] the king spake, and said to the wise [men] of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.
8 A hele mai no ka poe naauao o ke alii; aole nae i hiki ia lakou ke heluhelu i ka palapala, aole hoi ke hoakaka i ke alii i ke ano.
Then came in all the king’s wise [men: ] but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation thereof.
9 Alaila pihoihoi nui iho la o Belehazara ke alii, ua ano e ae la kona maka, a makau pu iho la kona poe alii.
Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were astonied.
10 No keia mea a ke alii, a me na'lii ona, komo mai la ke alii wahine iloko o ka hale aha inu; a olelo ae la ke alii wahine, i ae la, E ke alii e, e ola mau loa oe. Mai pihoihoi kou manao, aole hoi e hooano e ae kou maka:
[Now] the queen, by reason of the words of the king and his lords, came into the banquet house: [and] the queen spake and said, O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed:
11 No ka mea, e noho ana ke kanaka iloko o kou aupuni, aia iloko ona ka uhane o na akua hemolele; a i na la o kou makua, ua loaa iloko ona ka malamalama, a me ka naauao, a me ke akamai, e like me ke akamai o na akua; ka mea a ke alii a Nebukaneza, a kou makua, a ke alii kou makua no, i hoonoho ai i alii maluna o na kakauolelo, a me na magoi, a me ka poe Kaledea, a me ka poe kilokilo:
There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, [I say], thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, [and] soothsayers;
12 No ka mea, aia iloko o Daniela ka mea a ke alii i kapa ai o Beletesaza, he uhane naauao loa, a me ke akamai, o ka hoakaka ana i na moe, ka hoomaopopo ana i na olelo nane, a me ka hoike ana i na mea pohihihi; ano e kiiia aku o Daniela, a nana no e hoakaka mai i ke ano.
Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation.
13 Alaila alakaiia mai la o Daniela imua o ke alii. Olelo aku la ke alii ia Daniela, i aku la, O oe anei ua Daniela la, no ka poe pio no Iuda, ka poe a ke alii a ko'u makuakane i lawe pio ae ai mai Iuda mai?
Then was Daniel brought in before the king. [And] the king spake and said unto Daniel, [Art] thou that Daniel, which [art] of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Jewry?
14 Ua lohe au nou, aia iloko ou ka uhane o na akua, a ua loaa iloko ou ka malamalama, a me ka naauao, a me ke akamai.
I have even heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods [is] in thee, and [that] light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.
15 Ua alakaiia mai imua o'u ka poe naauao, a me ka poe kilo, i heluhelu lakou i keia palapala, a i hoakaka mai i ke ano; aole nae i hiki ia lakou ke hoike mai i ke ano o ia mea.
And now the wise [men], the astrologers, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof: but they could not shew the interpretation of the thing:
16 A ua lohe au nou, e hiki ia oe ke hoakaka mai i ke ano, a e hoike mai i na mea pohihihi. Ano hoi, ina e hiki ia oe ke heluhelu i keia palapala, a e hoakaka mai i ke ano, alaila e hoaahuia oe i ke kana ulaula, a e kauia he lei gula ma kou a-i, a e hooliloia oe o ko kolu no na'lii iloko o ke aupuni.
And I have heard of thee, that thou canst make interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom.
17 Ekemu aku la o Daniela, i aku la imua o ke alii, E malama i kou haawina nou iho, a me kou uku na hai; aka, e heluhelu no au ia palapala no ke alii, a e hoakaka no hoi au i ke ano.
Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; yet I will read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
18 E ke alii e, ua haawi mai ke Akua kiekie ia Nebukaneza i kou makua, i ke aupuni, a me ka nani, a me ka hanohano, a me ka mahaloia mai;
O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honour:
19 A no ka hanohano ana i haawi mai ai ia ia, ua makau, a haalulu iho la na lahuikanaka, a me na aina, a me na olelo imua ona; ua pepehi ia i kana mau mea i makemake ai, a na hoola no hoi oia i kana mau mea i makemake ai; na hookiekie hoi ia i kana mau mea i makemake ai, ua hoohaahaa no hoi ia i na mea ana i makemake ai.
And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he would he put down.
20 Aka, i ka wa i hookiekie ai kona naau, a paakiki no hoi kona manao me ka haakei, ua kipakuia oia mai ka noho alii ona, a ua laweia'ku kona hanohano mai ona aku la.
But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him:
21 Ua kipakuia oia mai na kanaka aku; a ua hooliloia kona naau e like me ko na holoholona, o kona wahi e noho ai, aia pu me na hoki hihiu; ua hanaiia oia i ka mauu e like me na bipi kauo, a hoopuluia kona kino i ka hau o ka lani; a ike oia i ke alii ana o ke Akua kiekie iloko o ke aupuni o kanaka, a me kona hoonoho ana i ka mea ana e makemake ai maluna iho.
And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling [was] with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and [that] he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.
22 A o oe, e Belehazara kana keiki e, ua ike no oe i keia mea a pau, aole nae oe i hoohaahaa i kou naau iho;
And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knewest all this;
23 Aka, ua hookiekie oe ia oe iho maluna o ke Akua o ka lani; a na laweia mai na kiaha o kona hale imua ou, a o oe a me kou poe alii, a me kou mau wahine, a me na haiawahine au, ua inu oukou i ka waina iloko olaila; a hoolea oe i na akua kala a me ke gula, a me ke keleawe, a me ka hao, a me ka laau, a me ka pohaku, na mea ike ole, aole lohe, aole hoi i noonoo; aka, aole oe i hoonani i ke Akua, ka mea iloko o kona lima kou hanu, a nona kou mau aoao a pau.
But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath [is], and whose [are] all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:
24 Alaila ua hoounaia mai, mai ona mai ka hapa o ka lima; a ua kakauia keia palapala.
Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.
25 Eia ka palapala i kakauia: MENE, MENE, TEKELA, UPARESINA.
And this [is] the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
26 A eia ke ano o ia mea: MENE, Ua helu mai ke Akua i kou aupuni ana, a ua hoopau ia hoi.
This [is] the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
27 TEKELA; ua kaupaonaia oe ma ka mea kaupaona, a ua ikeia kou mama ana.
TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
28 PERESA; ua maheleia kou aupuni, a ua haawiia'ku, no ka poe Media a me ka poe Peresia.
PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
29 Alaila kauoha aku la o Belehazara, a hoaahu lakou ia Daniela i ke kapa ulaula, a kau lakou i lei gula ma kona a-i, a kauoha no hoi oia nona, i lilo ai ia i ke kolu o na'lii ma ke aupuni.
Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and [put] a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
30 Ia po no pepehiia iho la a make o Belehazara ke alii o ka poe Kaledea.
In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.
31 A lilo ke aupuni ia Dariu i ka Media, he kanaono kumamalua ona mau makahiki.
And Darius the Median took the kingdom, [being] about threescore and two years old.
