Daniela 1
1 I KA makahiki ekolu o ke au ia Iehoiakima ke alii o Iuda, hele mai la o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona i Ierusalema, a hoopuni aku la ia wahi.
In the third year of the reign of Joakim king of Juda, Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and besieged it.
2 A haawi aku la ke Akua iloko o kona lima ia Iehoiakima ke alii o Iuda, a me kekahi mau ipu o ka hale o ke Akua, a lawe aku la oia ia mau mea i ka aina i Sinara i ka hale o kona akua; a hookomo 'o ia i na ipu iloko o ka hale waihonawaiwai o kona akua iho.
And the Lord delivered into his hands Joakim the king of Juda, and part of the vessels of the house of God: and he carried them away into the land of Sennaar, to the house of his god, and the vessels he brought into the treasure house of his god.
3 Olelo aku la ke alii ia Asepenaza ka luna o ka poe i poaia, e alakai mai i kekahi o ka poe mamo a Iseraela, na keiki alii, a me na kaukaualii;
And the king spoke to Asphenez the master of the eunuchs, that he should bring in some of the children of Israel, and of the king’s seed and of the princes,
4 Na keiki kina ole, a maikai ke nana aku, a akamai ma na mea a pau i aoia mai, a he poe ike i na mea ikeia a naauao hoi ma na mea e akamai ai, ka poe i makaukau, i ku aku lakou iloko o ka hale o ke alii, i aoia mai ai lakou ma ka palapala, a me ka olelo a ka poe Kaledea.
Children in whom there was no blemish, well favoured, and skillful in all wisdom, acute in knowledge, and instructed in science, and such as might stand in the king’s palace, that he might teach them the learning, and the tongue of the Chaldeans.
5 A kauoha ae la ke alii i ai na lakou no kela la keia la, ma ka ai a ke alii, a me ka waina ana i inu ai; i kupaluia lakou i na makahiki ekolu, a mahope e ku aku lakou imua o ke alii.
And the king appointed them a daily provision, of his own meat, and of the wine of which he drank himself, that being nourished three years, afterwards they might stand before the king.
6 Aia mawaena o lakou kekahi poe o na keiki a Iuda, o Daniela, o Hanania, o Misaela, a me Azaria.
Now there were among them of the children of Juda, Daniel, Ananias, Misael, and Azarias.
7 Kapa ae la ka luna o ka poe i poaia i mau inoa hou no lakou; kapa ae la oia i ko Daniela o Beletesaza; i ko Hanania o Saderaka; i ko Misaela o Mesaka; a me ko Azaria o Abedenego.
And the master of the eunuchs gave them names: to Daniel, Baltassar: to Ananias, Sidrach: to Misael, Misach: and to Azarias, Abdenago.
8 Ua paa ko Daniela manao aole e hoohaumia ia ia iho ma ka ai a ke alii, a me ka waina ana i inu ai: a noi aku la oia i ka luna o ka poe i poaia i hoohaumia ole oia ia ia iho malaila.
But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not be defiled with the king’s table, nor with the wine which he drank: and he requested the master of the eunuchs that he might not be defiled.
9 Ua haawi mai ke Akua ia Daniela i ka lokomaikai a me ke aloha nui ia mai imua o ka luna o ka poe i poaia.
And God gave to Daniel grace and mercy in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.
10 Olelo mai la ka luna o ka poe i poaia ia Daniela, Ua makau au i kuu haku i ke alii, ka mea i kauoha mae i ka oukou ai, a me ka oukou mea e inu ai. Pehea la uanei e ike mai ai ke alii i ko oukou mau maka ua inoino mamua aku o na maka o na kamalii me oukou pu? Malaila, e hoohewa ai oukou i kuu poo i ke alii.
And the prince of the eunuchs said to Daniel: I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed you meat and drink: who if he should see your faces leaner than those of the other youths your equals, you shall endanger my head to the king.
11 I aku la o Daniela i ke kuene, ka mea a ka luna o ka poe i poaia i hoonoho ai maluna o Daniela, a me Hanania, a me Misaela, a me Azaria.
And Daniel said to Malasar, whom the prince of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Ananias, Misael, and Azarias:
12 E hoao mai i kau mau kauwa i na la he umi, a e haawi mai oe na makou i na laauikiai e ai, a me ka wai e inu.
Try, I beseech thee, thy servants for ten days, and let pulse be given us to eat, and water to drink:
13 Alaila e ikeia'i imua ou ko makou mau maka, a me na maka o na kamalii ka poe i ai i ka ai a ke alii; a e like me kou ike ana, pela no e hana mai ai oe i kau mau kauwa nei.
And look upon our faces, and the faces of the children that eat of the king’s meat: and as thou shalt see, deal with thy servants.
14 A ao mai la no oia i ka lakou ma keia mea, a hoao iho la ia lakou i na la he umi.
And when he had heard these words, he tried them for ten days.
15 A i ka hope o ua mau la la he umi, ua ikeia ko lakou mau maka, ua maikai, ua momona ka io mamua o ko na kamalii a pau i ai i ka ai a ke alii.
And after ten days their faces appeared fairer and fatter than all the children that ate of the king’s meat.
16 Alaila, lawe aku la ke kuene i ua ai la a lakou, a me ka waina i haawiia mai i mea inu, a haawi ia lakou i ka laauikiai wale no.
So Malasar took their portions, and the wine that they should drink: and he gave them pulse.
17 A o keia mau keiki eha, haawi mai la ke Akua ia lakou i ka ike, a me ke akamai ma na mea a pau i palapalaia, a me ka naauao; a o Daniela, ua ike oia i ka hoakaka i na akaku a pau a me na moe uhane.
And to these children God gave knowledge, and understanding in every book, and wisdom: but to Daniel the understanding also of all visions and dreams.
18 A i ka pau ana o na la a ke alii i olelo ai i alakaiia mai lakou, alaila, alakai aku la ka luna o ka poe i poaia ia lakou imua o Nebukaneza.
And when the days were ended, after which the king had ordered they should be brought in: the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nabuchodonosor.
19 A kamailio pu ke alii me lakou; aole nae i loaa iwaena o lakou a pau kekahi mea e like me Daniela, a me Hanania, a me Misaela, a me Azaria. A ku aku la lakou imua o ke alii.
And when the king had spoken to them, there were not found among them all such as Daniel, Ananias, Misael, and Azarias: and they stood in the king’s presence.
20 Ma na mea naauao a pau loa, a me na mea e akamai ai a ko alii i imi ai ia lakou, ua maopopo ia, ua oi pa umi aku ko lakou naauao mamua o na magoi a pau, a me na kilo ma kona aupuni a pau.
And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the diviners, and wise men, that were in all his kingdom.
21 Ola ae la o Daniela a hiki i ka makahiki mua o ko Kuro alii ana.
And Daniel continued even to the first year of king Cyrus.
