Daniel 2

1 Iti maikadua a tawen ti panagturay ni Nebucadnesar, nagtagtagainep isuna. Nariribukan isuna, ket saanen a makaturog.

And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar has dreamed dreams, and his spirit moves itself, and his sleep has been against him;

2 Ket pinaayaban ti ari dagiti salamangkero ken dagiti mangibagbaga a kabaelanda ti makisarita kadagiti natay. Pinaayabanna pay dagiti managanito ken dagiti nasirib a lallaki. Kayatna nga ibagada kenkuana ti maipapan kadagiti tagtagainepna. Isu a simrekda ket nagtakderda iti sangoanan ti ari.

and the king says to call for enchanters, and for conjurers, and for sorcerers, and for Chaldeans, to declare to the king his dreams. And they come in and stand before the king;

3 Kinuna ti ari kadakuada, “Nagtagtagainepak, ket magagaranak a mangammo iti kayat a sawen ti tagtagainep.”

and the king says to them, “I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is moved to know the dream.”

4 Ket nakisarita dagiti nasirib a lallaki iti ari babaen iti pagsasao nga Arameo, “O Ari, agbiagka iti agnanayon! Ibagam ti tagtagainep kadakami nga adipenmo, ket ibagami ti kaipapananna.”

And the Chaldeans speak to the king [in] Aramaic, “O king, live for all ages, tell the dream to your servants, and we show the interpretation.”

5 Insungbat ti ari kadagiti nasirib a lallaki, “Naikeddengen daytoy a banag. No saanyo a maibaga ti tagtagainep kaniak ken ti kaipapanan daytoy, marangrangkayto dagiti bagiyo ken agbalin a gabsuon dagiti rugit dagiti balayyo.

The king has answered and said to the Chaldeans, “The thing is gone from me; if you do not cause me to know the dream and its interpretation, you are made pieces, and your houses are made dunghills;

6 Ngem no maibagayo kaniak ti tagtagainep ken ti kaipapanan daytoy, makaawatkayo kadagiti sagut manipud kaniak, maysa a gunggona ken dakkel a pammadayaw. Isu nga ibagayo kaniak ti tagtagainep ken ti kaipapanan daytoy.”

and if the dream and its interpretation you show, gifts, and fee, and great glory you receive from before me, therefore the dream and its interpretation you show me.”

7 Insungbatda manen ket kinunada, “Ibaga koma ti ari kadakami nga adipenna, ti tagtagainep ket ibagami kenka ti kaipapanan daytoy.”

They have answered a second time, and are saying, “Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we show the interpretation.”

8 Simmungbat ti ari, “Ammok a kayatyo ti at-atiddog pay a tiempo gapu ta makitayo ti natibker a pangngeddengko maipapan iti daytoy.

The king has answered and said, “Of a truth I know that you are gaining time, because that you have seen that the thing is gone from me,

9 Ngem no saanyo a maibaga kaniak ti tagtagainep, maysa laeng ti sentensia para kadakayo. Inkeddengyo ti mangisagana iti palso ken manangallilaw a sasao a nagnunumoanyo nga ibaga kaniak agingga nga agbaliw ti panunotko. Isu nga Ibagayo kaniak ti tagtagainep, ket maammoak a kabaelanyo nga ibaga ti kaipapanan daytoy para kaniak.”

[so] that, if you do not cause me to know the dream—one is your sentence, seeing a lying and corrupt word you have prepared to speak before me, until the time is changed, therefore tell the dream to me, then I know that you show me its interpretation.”

10 Insungbat dagiti nasirib a lallaki iti ari, “Awan ti uray maysa a tao iti daga a makabael a mangibaga iti kalikagum ti ari. Awan ti nabileg ken mannakabalin nga ari ti agkalikagum iti kasta manipud iti siasinoman a salamangkero, wenno manipud iti siasinoman a mangibagbaga a kabaelanda ti makisarita kadagiti natay wenno manipud iti maysa a nasirib a tao.

The Chaldeans have answered before the king, and are saying, “There is not a man on the earth who is able to show the king’s matter; therefore, no king, chief, and ruler, has asked such a thing as this of any scribe, and enchanter, and Chaldean;

11 Narigat ti kalkalikaguman ti ari, ket awan ti siasinoman a makaibaga iti daytoy iti ari malaksid kadagiti didios, ket saanda a makipagnanaed kadagiti tattao.”

and the thing that the king is asking [is] precious, and there are no others that show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.”

12 Daytoy ti nangpaunget ken nangpapungtot unay iti ari, ket imbilinna a mapapatay dagiti amin nga adda iti Babilonia a nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda.

Therefore the king has been furious and very angry, and has said to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

13 Isu a naiwaragawag ti bilin. Mapapatay dagiti amin a nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda; binirokda ni Daniel ken dagiti gagayyemna tapno mapapatayda met.

And the sentence has gone forth, and the wise men are being slain, and they have sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.

14 Ket simmungbat ni Daniel nga addaan iti kinaannad ken kinatimbeng kenni Arioc a pangulo dagiti guardia ti ari, nga immay a mangpapatay kadagiti amin a nalatak idiay Babilonia gapu iti kinasiribda.

Then Daniel has replied [with] counsel and discretion to Arioch chief of the executioners of the king, who has gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon.

15 Sinaludsod ni Daniel iti panguloen dagiti guardia ti ari, “Apay a naganat unay ti bilin ti ari?” Imbaga ngarud ni Arioc kenni Daniel ti napasamak.

He has answered and said to Arioch the king’s captain, “Why [is] the sentence so urgent from before the king?” Then Arioch has made the thing known to Daniel,

16 Kalpasanna, simrek ni Daniel ket kiniddawna a mangikeddeng ti ari iti tiempo tapno maibagana ti kaipapanan ti tagtagainep iti ari.

and Daniel has gone up, and sought of the king that he would give him time to show the interpretation to the king.

17 Kalpasanna, nagawid ni Daniel ket inlawlawagna kada Hananias, Misael, ken Azarias ti napasamak.

Then Daniel has gone to his house, and to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, he has made the thing known,

18 Ginuyugoyna ida nga agpakaasida iti Dios ti langit maipapan iti daytoy a misterio tapno saanda a mapapatay a kaduada dagiti dadduma a lallaki ti Babilonia a nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda.

and to seek mercies from before the God of the heavens concerning this secret, that they do not destroy Daniel and his companions with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

19 Iti dayta a rabii, naiparang kenni Daniel ti palimed babaen iti maysa a sirmata. Ket dinaydayaw ni Daniel ti Dios ti langit

Then to Daniel, in a vision of the night, the secret has been revealed. Then Daniel has blessed the God of the heavens.

20 ket kinunana, “Madaydayaw ti nagan ti Dios iti agnanayon nga awan patinggana; ta kukuana ti kinasirib ken pannakabalin.

Daniel has answered and said, “Let the Name of God be blessed from age even to age, for wisdom and might—for they are His.

21 Balbaliwanna dagiti tiempo ken dagiti panawen; Ik-ikkatenna dagiti ari ket isasaadna dagiti ari kadagiti tronoda. Ik-ikkanna iti kinasirib dagiti nasirib ken ik-ikkanna iti pannakaammo dagiti addaan pannakaawat.

And He is changing times and seasons, He is causing kings to pass away, and He is raising up kings; He is giving wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those possessing understanding.

22 Iparparangna dagiti nauneg ken nailemmeng a banbanag gapu ta ammona no ania ti adda iti kasipngetan, ken agnanaed kenkuana ti lawag.

He is revealing deep and hidden things; He has known what [is] in darkness, and light has dwelt with Him.

23 O Dios dagiti kapuonak, agyaman ken agdaydayawak kenka gapu iti kinasirib ken pannakabalin nga intedmo kaniak. Ita, impakaammom kaniak ti inkararagmi kenka; impakaammom kadakami ti banag a pakaseknan ti ari.”

You, O God of my fathers, I am thanking and praising, for wisdom and might You have given to me; and now, You have caused me to know that which we have sought from You, for the king’s matter You have caused us to know.”

24 Gapu amin kadagitoy, napan ni Daniel kenni Ariok, ti dinutokan ti ari a mangpapatay kadagiti amin a nasirib iti Babilonia. Napan ket kinunana kenkuana, “Saanmo a papatayen dagiti nasirib a lallaki iti Babilonia. Kadduaannak a mapan iti sangoanan ti ari ket ibagak ti kaipapanan ti tagtagainep iti ari.”

Therefore Daniel has gone up to Arioch, whom the king has appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he has gone, and thus has said to him, “You do not destroy the wise men of Babylon, bring me up before the king, and I show the interpretation to the king.”

25 Ket dagus nga impan ni Arioc ni Daniel iti sangoanan ti ari ket kinunana, “Nakasapulak iti maysa a lalaki manipud kadagiti napagtalaw a kas balud ti Juda a makaibaga iti kaipapanan ti tagtagainep ti ari.”

Then Arioch in haste has brought up Daniel before the king, and thus has said to him, “I have found a man of the sons of the expulsion of Judah, who makes known the interpretation to the king.”

26 Kinuna ti ari kenni Daniel (a naawagan iti Beltesazar), “Kabaelam kadi nga ibaga kaniak ti natagtagainepko ken ti kaipapanan daytoy?”

The king has answered and said to Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar, “Are you able to cause me to know the dream that I have seen, and its interpretation?”

27 Simmungbat ni Daniel iti ari ket kinunana, “Ti misterio a kinalikaguman ti ari ket a saan a maibaga dagiti addaan iti kinasirib, wenno dagiti mangibagbaga a kabaelanda ti makisarita kadagiti natay, wenno dagiti salamangkero, ken saan a maibaga dagiti astrologo.

Daniel has answered before the king and said, “The secret that the king is asking, the wise men, the enchanters, the scribes, the soothsayers, are not able to show to the king;

28 Nupay kasta, adda Dios nga agnanaed kadagiti langit, a mangiparparangarang kadagiti palimed, ket impakaammona kenka, O Ari Nebucadnezar, dagiti mapasamakto kadagiti sumaruno nga al-aldaw. Ti tagtagainepmo ken dagiti sirmata iti panunotmo bayat nga agid-iddaka iti pagiddaam ket dagitoy:

but there is a God in the heavens, a revealer of secrets, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar that which [is] to be in the latter end of the days. Your dream and the visions of your head on your bed are these:

29 No maipapan kenka, O ari, dagiti panpanunotem iti pagiddaam ket maipapan kadagiti banbanag a mapasamakto iti masakbayan, ket impakaammo kenka ti mangiparparang kadagiti palimed ti mapasamakto.

You, O king, your thoughts on your bed have come up [concerning] that which [is] to be after this, and the Revealer of secrets has caused you to know that which [is] to be.

30 No maipapan kaniak, saan a naiparang kaniak daytoy a palimed gapu ta nasirsiribak ngem iti siasinoman a sibibiag a tao. Naiparang kaniak daytoy a palimed tapno sika, O ari, maawatam koma ti kaipapananna, ken tapno maammoam koma dagiti kapanunotan iti kaunggam.

As for me—not for [any] wisdom that is in me above any living has this secret been revealed to me; but for the intent that the interpretation to the king they make known, and the thoughts of your heart you know.

31 O ari, timmangadka ket nakakitaka iti maysa a dakkel nga estatua. Nakatakder iti sangoanam daytoy nga estatua a nabileg ken naraniag unay. Nakabutbuteng ti kinaraniagna.

You, O king, were looking, and behold, a certain great image. This image [is] mighty, and its brightness excellent; it is standing before you, and its appearance [is] terrible.

32 Ti ulo ti estatua ket naaramid iti puro a balitok. Ti barukong ken dagiti takkiagna ket naaramid iti pirak. Ti tian ken dagiti luppona ket naaramid iti bronse, ken dagiti gurongna ket naaramid iti landok.

This image! Its head [is] of fine gold, its breasts and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze;

33 Dagiti sakana ket naaramid iti naglaok a landok ken damili.

its legs of iron, its feet, part of them of iron, and part of them of clay.

34 Timmangadka ket maysa a bato ti nargaay, uray no kasta, saan a babaen kadagiti ima ti tao, ket naitupak daytoy kadagiti saka ti estatua a naaramid iti naglaok a landok ken damili, ket nawarawara dagitoy.

You were looking until a stone has been cut out without hands, and it has struck the image on its feet, that [are] of iron and of clay, and it has broken them small;

35 Kalpasanna, naggigiddan a naburak ti landok, damili, bronse, pirak ken balitok ket nagbalin a kasla taep ti pagirikan iti kalgaw. Naiyangin dagitoy ket awanen ti nabati a pakakitaan kadagitoy. Ngem ti bato a naitupak iti estatua ket nagbalin a dakkel a bantay ket pinunnona ti entero a daga.

then broken small together have been the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold, and they have been as chaff from the summer threshing-floor, and the wind has carried them away, and no place has been found for them: and the stone that struck the image has become a great mountain, and has filled all the land.

36 Daytoy ti tagtagainepmo. Ita, ibagami iti ari ti kaipapanan ti tagtagainepna.

This [is] the dream, and its interpretation we tell before the king.

37 Sika, O ari, ket ari dagiti ar-ari a nangitedan ti Dios ti langit iti pagarian, ti pannakabalin, bileg ken dayaw.

You, O king, are a king of kings, for the God of the heavens a kingdom, strength, and might, and glory, has given to you;

38 Inyawatna iti imam ti disso a pagnanaedan dagiti tattao. Inyawatna iti imam dagiti ayup iti kataltalonan ken dagiti billit iti tangatang, ken pinaiturayanna amin ida kenka. Sika ti balitok nga ulo ti estatua.

and wherever sons of men are dwelling, the beast of the field, and the bird of the heavens, He has given into your hand, and has caused you to rule over them all; you [are] this head of gold.

39 Kalpasan ti panagturaymo, tumaudto ti maysa pay a pagarian a saan a nabilbileg ngem sika, ngem agturayto iti entero a daga ti maikatlo a pagarian ti bronse.

And after you another kingdom arises lower than those, and another third kingdom of bronze, that rules over all the earth.

40 Addanto maikapat a pagarian a kas katibker ti landok, gapu ta buraken ti landok dagiti dadduma a banbanag ken warawaraen daytoy dagiti amin a banag. Warawaraen ken rumekento daytoy dagiti amin a banbanag.

And the fourth kingdom is strong as iron, because that iron is breaking small, and making feeble, all [things], even as iron that is breaking all these, it beats small and breaks.

41 Kas iti nakitam, naglaok a damili ken landok dagiti saka ken ramay daytoy, isu a magudduanto daytoy a pagarian; addanto iti daytoy ti dadduma a tibker ti landok kas iti nakitam a nailaok ti landok iti damili.

As for that which you have seen: the feet and toes, part of them potter’s clay, and part of them iron, the kingdom is divided: and some of the standing of the iron [is] to be in it, because that you have seen the iron mixed with miry clay.

42 Gapu ta naaramid dagiti saka ken ramay iti naglaok a landok ken damili, kastanto met ti pagarian, napigsanto ti dadduma a paset ket narasinto ti dadduma a paset.

As for the toes of the feet, part of them iron, and part of them clay: some part of the kingdom is strong, and some part of it is brittle.

43 Kas iti nakitam, nailaok ti landok iti damili, isu nga aglalaokto dagiti tattao; saandanto a nadekket iti tunggal maysa, kas iti saan a pannakailaok ti landok iti damili.

Because you have seen iron mixed with miry clay, they are mixing themselves with the seed of men: and they are not adhering with one another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.

44 Kadagiti al-aldaw dagitoy nga ar-ari, mangipasdekto ti Dios ti langit iti maysa a pagarian a saanto a pulos a madadael wenno maparmek dagiti sabali a tattao. Burakento daytoy dagiti dadduma a pagarian ken gibusannanto amin dagitoy, ket agtalinaedto daytoy iti agnanayon.

And in the days of these kings the God of the heavens raises up a kingdom that is not destroyed for all time, and its kingdom is not left to another people: it beats small and ends all these kingdoms, and it stands for all time.

45 Kas iti nakitam, maysa a bato ti nareggaay manipud iti bantay, ngem saan a babaen kadagiti ima ti tao. Binurakburak daytoy ti landok, bronse, damili, pirak ken balitok. Impakaammo kenka ti naindaklan a Dios, O ari, no ania ti mapasamakto kalpasan daytoy. Pudno ti tagtagainep ken mapagtalkan ti kaipapanan daytoy.”

Because that you have seen that out of the mountain a stone has been cut without hands, and it has beaten the iron small, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king that which [is] to be after this; and the dream [is] true, and its interpretation steadfast.”

46 Nagpakleb ni Ari Nebucadnesar iti sangoanan ni Daniel ket pinadayawanna isuna; imbilinna nga agidatonda ken mangpuorda iti insenso tapno padayawan isuna.

Then King Nebuchadnezzar has fallen on his face, and to Daniel he has done homage, and present, and sweet things, he has said to pour out to him.

47 Kinuna ti ari kenni Daniel, “Pudno a ti Diosmo ket Dios dagiti dios, ti Apo dagiti ari, ken ti mangiparparang kadagiti palimed, ta nabaelam nga imparang daytoy a misterio.”

The king has answered Daniel and said, “Of a truth [it is] that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you have been able to reveal this secret.”

48 Ket pinadayawan ti ari ni Daniel iti kasta unay, ken inikkanna isuna iti adu a sagut. Pinagbalinna isuna a mangituray iti entero a probinsia ti Babilonia. Nagbalin ni Daniel a kangatoan a gobernador kadagiti kasisiriban a lallaki ti Babilonia.

Then the king has made Daniel great, and many great gifts he has given to him, and has caused him to rule over all the province of Babylon, and chief of the prefects over all the wise men of Babylon.

49 Nagkiddaw ni Daniel iti ari, ket dinutokan ti ari da Sedrac, Mesac, ken Abednego nga agbalin nga administrador iti entero a probinsia ti Babilonia. Ngem nagtalinaed ni Daniel iti palasio ti ari.

And Daniel has sought from the king, and he has appointed over the work of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, and Daniel [is] in the gate of the king.
