Ko ia naʻe fakataha ai ʻae houʻeiki hau, mo e ngaahi pule, mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau, mo e houʻeiki mo e kau pule koloa, mo e kau fakamatala fono, mo e kau fakamaau, pea mo e kau pule ʻoe ngaahi fonua, ki he fakatapui ʻoe meʻa fakatātā ʻaia naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe he tuʻi ko Nepukanesa; pea naʻa nau tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe meʻa fakatātā ʻaia naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Nepukanesa.
4 Onye nkwusa kwuru okwu nʼolu ike, “Mmadụ niile si na mba niile na asụsụ niile dị iche iche bịa, ka a na-enye iwu nke a,
Pea naʻe kalanga mālohi ʻae tangata fekau; “ʻOku fekau kiate kimoutolu, ʻae kakai mo e ngaahi puleʻanga mo e kakai ʻi he lea kehekehe;

Pea ko ia ʻe ʻikai punou mo hū, ʻe lī ia ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ko ia ki he loto afi vela kakaha.”
7 Ya mere, ngwangwa ha nụrụ ụda opi ike, nke ọja, une ụbọ akwara, nke une na nke egwu dị iche iche, ndị niile si mba dị iche iche, ndị na-asụ asụsụ dị iche iche, dara nʼala kpọọ isiala nye oyiyi ọlaedo ahụ, nke eze bụ Nebukadneza guzobere.

9 Ha gwara eze, bụ Nebukadneza, “Ka eze dị ndụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
Naʻa nau lea ki he tuʻi ko Nepukanesa ʻo pehē, “ʻE tuʻi, ke ke moʻui ʻo taʻengata.

13 Nebukadneza nʼọnọdụ oke iwe nyere iwu ka a kpọta Shedrak, na Mishak, na Abednego. Ya mere, a kpọbatara ndị ikom a nʼihu eze,
Ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Nepukanesa ʻi heʻene houhau mo ʻene tuputāmaki ke ʻomi ʻa Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko. Ko ia naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae kau tangata ni ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
14 Nebukadneza sịrị ha, “Ọ bụ eziokwu, Shedrak, na Mishak, na Abednego, na unu adịghị efe chi m maọbụ kpọọ isiala nye oyiyi ọlaedo ahụ m guzobere?
Pea ne lea ʻa Nepukanesa, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku moʻoni, ʻe Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko, ʻoku ʻikai te mou tauhiʻi ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻotua, pe hū ki he meʻa fakatātā koula ʻaia kuo u fokotuʻu?

Ko eni, kapau te mou tali ʻoka mou ka fanongo ki he leʻo ʻoe koaneti, mo e fangufangu, ʻae haʻape, mo e sakipute, ʻae saliteli, mo e lali, mo e ngaahi meʻa hiva kehekehe kotoa pē, pea te mou punou ʻo hū ki he meʻa fakatātā ʻaia kuo u ngaohi; pehē ʻe lelei: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou hū, ʻe lī ʻakimoutolu ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ko ia, ki he loto afi vela kakaha; pea ko hai ʻae ʻotua ko ia te ne fakahaofi ʻakimoutolu mei hoku nima?”
16 Shedrak, na Mishak, na Abednego, gwara eze, “O Nebukadneza, ọ dịghị mkpa na anyị ga-azara ọnụ anyị nʼihu gị banyere okwu a.
Pea naʻe tali ʻe Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko, ʻo pehē ki he tuʻi, “ʻE Nepukanesa, ʻoku ʻikai te mau toe fifili pe ko e hā haʻamau tali kiate koe ʻi he meʻa ni.

19 Mgbe ahụ, Nebukadneza jupụtara nʼoke iwe megide Shedrak, na Mishak, na Abednego, nke bụ nʼihu ya gbarụrụ nʼebe ha nọ. O nyere iwu sị ka e mee ụlọ ọkụ ahụ ka ọ dị ọkụ ugboro asaa karịa ka o kwesiri.
Ko ia naʻe fonu ai ʻa Nepukanesa ʻi he houhau, pea naʻe kehe ʻae anga ʻo hono fofonga kia Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko, ko ia naʻa ne lea ʻo fekau ke nau tafu ʻae afi ke liunga fitu hake ʻene vela ʻi heʻene faʻa vela.
20 Ọ nyere ụfọdụ ndị kacha sie ike nʼetiti ndị agha ya iwu ka e kee Shedrak, na Mishak, na Abednego eriri nʼụkwụ na aka, tụbakwa ha nʼọkụ ahụ na-enwu enwu.
Pea ne fekau ki he kau tangata mālohi hake ʻi heʻene kongakau ke haʻi ʻa Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko, pea lī ʻakinautolu ki he afi vela kakaha.
21 Ya mere, ha kere ndị ikom ahụ agbụ ebe ha ka yi uwe ụkwụ ha, na akwa nkụkụ isi ha, na uwe mwụda ha, na uwe ha niile, tụba ha nʼetiti ọkụ ahụ na-enwu ajọ onwunwu.
Ko ia naʻe haʻi ʻae kau tangata ni mo honau ngaahi kofutuʻa, mo honau ngaahi kofu loto, mo honau ngaahi tatā, pea naʻe lī ʻakinautolu ki he loto afi vela kakaha.
22 Ebe ọ bụ nʼokwu eze dị ọkụ ọkụ, tinyere na ọkụ ahụ na-enwusi ike, o mere ka ire ọkụ regbuo ndị agha ahụ tụbara Shedrak, na Mishak, na Abednego.
Pea ko e meʻa ʻi he fekau ʻae tuʻi ke fai ke toʻotoʻo, pea mo ʻene vela ʻaupito ʻae afi, naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe he ulo ʻoe afi ʻae kau tangata ko ia naʻe hiki hake ʻa Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko.
23 Ya mere, Shedrak, na Mishak, na Abednego ndị e kesịrị agbụ ike, dabara nʼime ọkụ ahụ na-enwusi ike.
Pea naʻe tō hifo ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolu ni, ko Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko, ki he loto afi vela kakaha.
24 Nʼọnọdụ iju anya, Eze Nebukadneza wuliri nʼụkwụ ya, jụọ ndị ndụmọdụ sị, “Ọ bụghị ndị ikom atọ anyị kere agbụ ka anyị tụbara nʼime ọkụ?” Ha zara eze, “Ọ bụ ezie, eze.”
Pea naʻe ofo ʻae tuʻi ko Nepukanesa, pea ne tuʻu hake fakavave, mo ne lea ʻo pehē, ki he kau tangata tokoni ʻi he pule, “ʻIkai naʻa tau lī ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolu kuo haʻi ki he loto afi?” Pea naʻa nau lea ʻo pehē ki he tuʻi, “ʻOku moʻoni, ʻe tuʻi.”
25 Ọ sịrị, “Ma ana m ahụ mmadụ anọ ndị a na-ekeghị agbụ, ka ha na-agagharị nʼime ọkụ ahụ. Leekwa na ọkụ ahụ anaghị ere ha. Onye ahụ mere ha mmadụ anọ yiri nwa nke ndị bụ chi.”
Pea naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Vakai, ʻoku ou mamata ki he kau tangata ʻe toko fā, ʻoku ʻataʻatā, pea ʻoku nau ʻeveʻeva ʻi he loto afi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha kovi kiate kinautolu, pea ko e anga ʻo hono toko fā, ʻoku hangē ia ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua.”
26 Mgbe ahụ Nebukadneza, bịara nso nʼọnụ ụzọ oke ọkụ ahụ sị, “Shedrak, Mishak na Abednego, ndị ohu Chineke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, pụtanụ! Bịanụ nʼebe a!” Ya mere, Shedrak, Mishak na Abednego, sitere nʼoke ọkụ ahụ pụta.
Pea naʻe ʻunuʻunu atu ʻa Nepukanesa ʻo ofi ki he matapā ki he afi vela kakaha, ʻo ne lea ʻo pehē, “ʻE Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae ʻOtua māʻolunga, mou hū mai pea haʻu ki heni.” Pea naʻe hū mai ʻa Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko, mei he loto afi.
27 Ụmụ ndị eze niile, ndịisi niile, ndị ahụ niile na-achị achị na ndị ndụmọdụ eze niile, zukọtara gburugburu ndị ikom atọ ahụ, ha hụkwara na ọkụ emerụghị ha ahụ, na o rechapụghịkwa agịrị isi dị ha nʼisi, uwe ha ereghịkwa ọkụ, isisi anwụrụ ọkụ adịghịkwa nʼahụ ha.

28 Mgbe ahụ, Nebukadneza sịrị, “Otuto dịrị Chineke nke Shedrak, Mishak na Abednego nʼihi na o zitere mmụọ ozi ya ịzọpụta ndị ohu ya tụkwasịrị ya obi, mgbe ha jụrụ ime ihe eze nyere nʼiwu, kama ha jiri aka ha họrọ ịnwụ, kama ife chi ọzọ nke na-abụghị Chineke nke ha.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Nepukanesa ʻo pehē, “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae ʻOtua ʻo Seteleki, mo Mesake, mo ʻApeteniko, ʻaia kuo fekau ʻa ʻene ʻāngelo, pea kuo ne fakahaofi ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki naʻe falala kiate ia, pea kuo nau liliu ʻae lea ʻae tuʻi, ʻo fakahaofi ʻa honau sino, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nau tauhi, pe hū ki ha ʻotua, ka ko honau ʻOtua pe.
