Taneo 2

1 Hagi Nebukatnesa'ma nampa 2 kafuma kinima mania kafufina, mago'a ava'naramina ke'ne. Ana avanaramima keteno'a tusi antahintahi hakare nehuno avura omase'ne.

In the second year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign the king had dreams that upset him so much that he found it difficult to sleep.

2 Anama huteno'a ana ava'namofo agafa'ama eme eriama'ma hanazegura, zamavune vahe'ma, zamema nentaza vahe'ma, henkama fore hania zanku'ma kasnampagema nehaza vahetegane Kaldia vaheteganena kea atregeno vuno eno hu'ne. Hagi ana kea antahi'za kini ne'mofo avuga emeri atru hutazageno,

So the king summoned the magicians, enchanters, sorcerers, and astrologers to tell him what he had dreamed. They came in and stood before him.

3 Kini ne'mo'a amanage huno zamasami'ne, Nagra mase'ne'na mago ava'na kete'na, ana avanama ke'noa zankura inankna avana ke'noeha hu'na antahintahi hakare hu'noe.

“I've had a dream that has really upset me,” he told them. “I need to know what it means.”

4 Hige'za ana Kaldia vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za Arami vahe zamagerupinti kenona'a hunte'naze. Kini ne'moka za'zate kinia maninka vugahane. Ana hu'negu kagri eri'za vahe mani'nonanki, ana ava'na huama hugeta nentahita, ana ava'namofo agafa'a eriama huta kasamineno!

The astrologers answered the king in Aramaic, “May Your Majesty the king live forever! Tell us your dream and we your servants will interpret it for you.”

5 Hianagi kini ne'mo'a ana Kaldia vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne. Nagra tamage hu'na tamasamuankita, ana ava'nafima ke'noa zama onasamita, ana avana'mofo agafa'ama eri ama'ma huta onasami'nazana, vahe huzmante'nuge'za tamagrira tamahe'za rukafri kafro hutregahaze. Ana nehu'za tamagri nona tapage tapagu hu'za magopi eri hihi hugahaze.

“I can't recall it,” the king told the astrologers. “If you can't reveal the dream to me, and its meaning, you will be cut into pieces and your houses will be totally destroyed!

6 Hianagi ana ava'nafima ke'noa zama nenasamita, ana ava'namofo agafa'ama eri ama'ma huta nasamisage'na, nagra rama'a museza nerami'na rantamagi tamigahue. E'ina hu'negu menina ana avanamofo agafa'a eriama huta nasamiho.

But if you can tell me the dream and its meaning you will receive from me gifts, rewards, and great honor. So tell me the dream and what it means!”

7 Hagi mago'ene ana vahe'mo'za kini nera amanage hu'za asami'naze. Hagi kini ne'moka, ana avanaka'a huama hunka kagri eri'za vahe'mota tasamitegeta antahiteta, ana ava'namofo agafa'a huama huta kasami'neno.

Again they said the same thing: “If Your Majesty the king would tell us his servants the dream, we will explain what it means.”

8 Hazageno kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, tamagrama antahi'zana zazate nanekea huta avazu huta nevanunkeno, ko'ma huvempama hu'nea nanekea atreno antahintahi'a rukrahe hugahie huta nehaze.

“It's obvious to me that you're just trying to buy time!” said the king. “You can see that I can't remember the dream.

9 Hagi ana ava'nafima ke'noa zamofo agafa'ama eri ama'ma huta onasaminage'na, mago avamenteke knazana tamigahuema hu'noa kegu tamagesa nentahita, tamagra mago tamarimpa huta, antahintahi'a rukrahe hugahie huta havige huta nagrira renavatga nehaze. Ana hu'negu menina ana avana kema nasami'nage'na antahisuna, ana avana'mofo agafa'anena eri ama huta nasamigahaze hu'na hugahue.

If you can't reveal the dream to me, you will all receive the same punishment! You have conspired against me, telling me lies, hoping things will change. So tell me what my dream was and then I'll know that you can explain what it means.”

10 Hanki ana Kaldia vahe'mo'za kini ne'mofona amanage hu'za kenona hunte'naze. Kini ne'moka tagriku'ma hihoma hunkama hana zana, magore huno ama mopafima mani'nea vahe'mo'a huamara huno onkasamigahie. Kini ne'moka ko'ma ama mopafima hankavenentake hu'za ra zamagima eri'za mani'naza kini vahe'mo'za, e'inahu agenoka zamavune vahe'ma, zamema nentaza vahe'ma, henkama fore hania zanku'ma huama nehaza vahe'mokizmia zamantahi onke'nazankna agenoka kagra tantahinegane.

The astrologers answered the king, “No one on earth could tell the king what he dreamed! Never before has a king, however great and powerful, demanded this of any magician, enchanter, or astrologer!

11 Kini ne'moka tagri'ma tantahimagana zama eri ama'ma hu'amo'a, tusiza huno amuho tavesie. Ana hu'neankino mago vahe'mo'a eri amara huno onkasamigahianki, vahe'enena nomaniza anumzantamimoke ana zana eri amara hugahie.

What Your Majesty is asking is impossible! No one can tell Your Majesty what you dreamed, except the gods, and they do not live among us mortals.”

12 Kini nemo'ma ana nanekema nentahino'a, tusi arimpa nehegeno, Babiloni mopamofo agu'afima antahi'zane vahe'ma mani'naza vahera zamahe hana hihogu sondia vahera huzmante'ne.

This made the king extremely angry, and he ordered all the wise men of Babylon executed.

13 Antahi'zane vahe'ma zamahe fri nanekemo'a mago kasege efore hige'za, antahi'zane vahera zamahe hana hunaku vu'za e'za hu'naze. Ana nehazage'za mago'a vahera huzmantazage'za Danieline 3'a nagara ome hake'za zamahe frinaku vu'naze.

The decree was issued. The wise men were about to be executed, and the king's men went looking for Daniel and his friends.

14 Hanki kini ne'mofo avate'ma kegavama nehaza sondia vahete kva ne' Arioku'a, Babiloni mopamofo agu'afima antahi'zane vahe'ma mani'naza vahera zamahe fri'naku vu'ne. Anama nehigeno'a Danieli'a knare antahi'zama'areti Arioku'enena keaga hu'ne.

Daniel approached Arioch, the commander of the imperial guard, whom the king had put in charge of the order to execute all the wise men of Babylon. Wisely and tactfully

15 Danieli'a amanage huno Arioku'na antahige'ne. Na'ane huno kini ne'mo'a e'ina hu hankave kasegea anakino, antahi'zane vahera zamahe frigahue huno nehie? Anagema higeno'a Arioku'a anazamofo agafa'a eriama huno Danielina asami'ne.

Daniel asked him, “Why would the king issue such a harsh decree?” So Arioch explained to Daniel what had happened.

16 Anante Danieli'a ame huno kini nete vuno, Osi'a kna naminege'na ana ava'namofo agafa'a eriama hu'na kasami'neno huno ome antahige'ne.

Daniel immediately went to see the king and asked for more time to explain the dream and its meaning to him.

17 Ana kerera kini ne'mo'a hu i'zo higeno, Danieli'a noma'arega vuno 3'a afuhe'ina Hananiane, Misaheline, Azaria kizmia ana nanekea omerinte ama huno nezmasamino,

Then Daniel went home and shared with Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah what was going on.

18 amanage hu'ne, monafinkama mani'nea Anumzamofontega nunamu hanunkeno, agra asunku huneranteno ana ava'namofo agafa'a erinte ama huno tasami'nie. Anama hanigeno'a tagri'ene, ruga'a knare antahi'zane vahe'ma Babilonima mani'naza vahe'enena kini ne'mo'a tahe ofrigahie huno hu'ne.

He told them to pray to the God of heaven, asking for help regarding this mystery, so that he and his friends would not be killed along with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

19 Hagi ana kenagera Danieli'a mase'negeno, Anumzamo'a ana ava'nane, ana avanamofo agafa'a, ava'nagna zampi erinte ama huno averi hu'ne. Anama higeno'a monafinkama mani'nea Anumzamofo agi'a Danieli'a ahentesga huno,

That night the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision. Then Daniel praised the God of heaven:

20 amanage hu'ne, Maka kna Anumzamofo agi'a ahentesga huvava hugahune. Na'ankure knare antahi'zane, maka hankavenena Anumzamofopinke me'ne.

“Praise the wonderful nature of God forever and ever, for he is wise and powerful.

21 Ama mopafima ruzahu ruzahu knama fore'ma nehiana, Anumzamo Agrake higeno fore nehie. Agrake kini vahera azeri fore nehuno, azeri netreno nehie. Ana nehuno Agrake knare antahi'zana vahe'mofona amigeno ama' antahi'zana enerie.

He is in charge of time and history. He removes kings, and he sets kings in place. He gives wisdom to make people wise; he gives knowledge to people so they can understand.

22 Framakino oku'ama me'nea zana Anumzamoke eri ama huno vahera nezamasamino, masare nemania Anumzankino hanimofo agu'afima me'nea zana keno antahino hu'ne. Ana hu'neankino Agra masafi nemania Anumza mani'ne.

He reveals deep, mysterious things. He knows what lies in darkness, and light lives in his presence.

23 Nagri nagehe'mokizmi Anumzamoka muse hunegante'na Kagri kagia ahentesga nehue. Na'ankure knare antahi'zane, hankavenena Kagra nenamine. Ana nehunka kini ne'mofo ava'nagu'ma nunamuma hutama kantahigona zana, Kagra eri ama' hunka nasami'ne.

I give thanks and praise to you, God of my fathers, for you have given me wisdom and power. Now you have revealed to me what we asked you; you have revealed to us the king's dream.”

24 Hagi anante kini ne'mo'ma Babiloni mopamofo agu'afima knare antahi'zane vahe'ma mani'naza vahe'ma vunka zamahe frio huno'ma hunte'nea ne' Ariokunte Danieli'a vuno, amanage huno ome asami'ne. Knare antahi'zane vahe'ma Babiloni mopamofo agu'afima mani'naza vahera kagra zamahe ofrinka nezmantrenka navrenka kini nete vuge'na, kini ne'mofo ava'na ome eriama hu'na asami'neno.

So Daniel went to Arioch whom the king had ordered to execute the wise men of Babylon and told him, “Don't execute the wise men of Babylon! Take me to see the king and I will explain to him his dream.”

25 Anante Arioku'a, Danielina ame huno avreno kini nete vuno, amanage huno kini nera ome asami'ne. Juda nagapinti vene'nema kinama eme hu'naza nagapintira mago nera ama hakena avre'na oankino, kagrama ke'nana ava'namofo agafa'a erinte ama huno kasamigahie.

Arioch immediately took Daniel to the king and told him, “I've found one of the captives from Judah who can tell Your Majesty what your dream means.”

26 Anante kini ne'mo'a amanage huno Danielina mago agi'a Belsasana antahige'ne. Nagrama ava'nafima ke'noa zana nenasaminka, ana ava'namofo agafa'a eri amara hunka nasamigahano?

The king asked Daniel (also called Belteshazzar), “Are you really able to tell me what my dream was, and what it means?”

27 Anagema higeno'a Danieli'a amanage huno kini nera asami'ne. Mago antahi'zane vahemo'o, amema nentea vahemo'o, avune vahe'mo'o, henka fore hania zanku'ma kasnampa nanekema nehaza vahe'mo'za, anama ke'nana ava'namofo agafa'a erinte ama hu'za kini nemoka kasamigara osu'naze.

“No wise men or enchanters or magicians or diviners can explain the mystery Your Majesty wants to know,” Daniel replied.

28 Hianagi monafinkama mani'nea Anumzamo, fra'ma kino oku'ama me'nea zana eri fore nehia Anumza mani'neankino, Anumzamo'a henkama fore hania zamofo sipakare'ma masenankeno'a ava'nafi kini ne'moka eri kaveri hu'ne.

“But there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and he has revealed to King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in the last days. Your dream and the visions that came to your mind as you were lying in bed were these.

29 Hagi kini ne'moka kagrama mase'nenka'ma ava'nama ke'nanana, henkama fore'ma haniaza ke'nane. Ana hu'neankino oku'ama framakino me'nea zama erifore nehia Anumzamo, ana ava'na eri kaveri hu'ne.

As Your Majesty lay there, your thoughts turned to the future, and the revealer of mysteries showed you what would take place.

30 Hagi ama ana ava'namofo agafa'ama eriama'ma huno nagri'ma nasami'neana, nagra mago'a antahi'zane vahera zamagatere'na, antahi'zana eri'nogu huno anara osu'ne, i'o. Anumzamo ana ava'namofo agafa'a nasami'neanki'na, huama hanugenka ava'na kamofo agafa'a antahi ama' hugahane.

It's not because I have any more wisdom than anyone else that this mystery has been revealed to me, but to explain to Your Majesty what you were thinking about so you could understand.

31 Hagi kini ne'mokama ava'nama ke'nampina, mago ne'mofo amema'a kavuga oti'negenka ke'nane. Ana amema'amo'a tusizankna huno masanentake huno ruzahukna hu'negenka negenka tusi koro hu'nane.

Your Majesty, as you looked, there before you stood a great statue. The statue standing in front of you was huge, and blazingly bright. It looked terrifying!

32 Ana vahe amema'amofo aseni'a goliretike tro nehu'za, tare azantrene amimiza'a silvareti tro nehu'za, amukofareti'ma uramino amote'ma ome atre'neana, bronsireti tro nehuno,

The head of the statue was gold, the chest and arms were silver, its middle and thighs were bronze,

33 arenareti'ma urami'nea agiararena ainireti tro hu'naze. Hagi agia'a ainireti'ene higo hapateti eri havia huza tro hu'naze.

its legs were iron, and its feet were iron and baked clay.

34 E'i anama hunkama avanama negankeno'a, mago havea vahe'mo azampinti rutamana huotre'neaki, agonafinti agra'a atamanasiteno eramino, ana vahe amema'amofo agiararema, ainireti'ene higo hapatetima eri haviama hu'za tro'ma hu'naza agia rarena rufuzafupetre'ne.

While you were watching, a stone was quarried, but not by human hands. It struck the iron and clay feet of the statue and smashed them to pieces.

35 Ana higeno ana maka ainine, higo hapa'ene, bronsine, silvane, golinena magokage rufuzufupegeno, witima neharegeno zaho'mo eno, onoma'a magore huno otreno eme eri harafima huno viaza huno erino vu'ne. Hianagi anama eno ana vahe amema'ama rufuzafupea havemo'a, ra agona seteno maka ama mopa ruvite'ne.

Then the rest of the statue—the bronze, the silver, and the gold—broke into pieces like the iron and clay. The wind blew them all away like chaff from the summer threshing floor, so that no trace of them could be found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

36 Hagi kini ne'moka e'inahu ava'na ke'nanankita menina ana ava'namofo agafa'a eriama huta kasamigahune.

This was the dream, and now we will explain what it means to the king.

37 Kini ne'moka, kagra maka kinia zamagaterenka vugote'nane. Hagi monafinkama mani'nea Anumzamo kagrira kinia manio huno huhamprigenka kinia mani'nankeno hankavene rankaginena kami'ne.

Your Majesty, you are the king of kings to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, and power, strength, and glory.

38 Ana nehuno kagrira hankavea kamigenka vahe'ene zaga kfane namaraminena kegava hu'nane. Ana hu'neankinka ana vahe amema'amofo aseni'ama golireti'ma tro hu'nagenka'ma kenanana, e'i kagra mani'nane.

He gave you control over all peoples, as well as the wild animals and birds. He made you ruler of all of them. You are the head of gold.

39 Hanki henka'a kagri kamefira mago kini ne' efore hugahiankino, ana kini ne'mofo hankavemo'a, kagri hankavea agateoregahie. Hagi anantera nampa 3 kini efore huno, maka ama mopa kegava hugahie. Ana hu'neankino agra ana vahe amema'ama bronsireti'ma tro'ma hu'nazankna hu'ne.

But after you another kingdom will rise that is inferior to your kingdom and will replace yours. After that a third kingdom that is bronze will rise and rule over the whole world.

40 Hagi ana amefira nampa 4kini efore hugahiankino, hankavenentake huno ainigna hugahie. Na'ankure ainimo'a maka'zana rufuzafu'nepeaza me'ne. Ana hu'neankino ainimo'ma maka'zama rufuzafunepeaza huno, ana kini ne'mo'a maka vahera hahu zamanteno zamazeri haviza huvagaregahie.

The fourth kingdom will be strong as iron and in the same way that iron crushes and smashes everything; it will crush and smash all others.

41 Hagi ana ava'nafima ke'nanana, ana amema'amofo agia ainireti'ene higoreti'ene eri havia hu'za tro hu'naze. E'inama hu'neana, agafa'amo'a amanahu hu'ne. Ana kini ne'mo'ma kegavama hu'nesnia vahe'mo'za zamagrare zamagrare hu'za otitere hugahazankino, mago'amoza aenigna huza hankavenetisageno, mago'amo'za hankave otigahaze.

You saw the feet and toes made from iron and baked clay, and this indicates it will be a divided kingdom. It will have some of the strength of iron but mixed with clay.

42 Hagi ana vahe amema'amofo agia'a ainireti'ene higoreti eri haviama hu'za tro hu'nagenkama ke'nana zamofo agafa'amo'a amanahu hu'ne. Anama efore'ma hania kini nemo'ma kegavama hania vahe'mo'za, mago kaziga hankave netiszage'za, mago kaziga hankavea otigahaze.

As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, the kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle.

43 Ana vahe amema'amofo agiama ainireti'ene higoreti'ma eri haviama hu'za tro'ma hu'nagenka'ma ke'nana zamofo agafa'amo'a amanahu hu'ne. Anama refko haza kini vahe'mo'za mofa'nezmi omeri emeri nehu'za, eri mago hunaku hanazanagi, zamagra magopina omanigahaze. Na'ankure ainine higomo'enena ruohamprigaha'e.

In the same way that you saw the iron mixed with ordinary clay, so the people will mix but they will not stick together just as iron and clay do not mix.

44 Hagi anankini vahe'mo'zama kinima mani'zama esnaza knafina, Monafinkama nemania Anumzamo'a mago kasefa kuma (Kindom) erifore hugahiankino, mago vahe'mo'a eri havizana osutfa huge, mago vahe'mo'a eno hara hunora ana kumara ohanaregahie. Ana hu'neanki'za Anumzamo'ma eri fore hania kumapima mani'snaza vahe'mo'za, mago'a kini vahera zamazeri fenkami atre vaganere'za, zamagra manivava hu'za vugahaze.

During the time of these kings the God of heaven will set up an eternal kingdom that will never be destroyed or taken over by others. It will crush all these kingdoms, bringing them to an end, and it will last forever,

45 Kagrama ana ava'nafima kankeno'a, mago havea vahe'mo azanuti ruofregeneanki, agra'a frageramino ana vahe amema'ama ainireti'ene bronsireti'ene hapa'ene silvareti'ene golireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza vahe amema'ama rufuzafupe'nea havemofo agafa'amo'a e'inahu hu'ne. Hagi Ra agi'ane Anumzamo'a henkama fore'ma haniaza kini nemoka ava'nafi eri kaveri hu'ne. Ama ana ava'na tamage ava'na ke'nane. Ana hu'neankino amama eri fore'ma hu'na kasamua kante anteno efore hugahie.

in the same way that you saw the stone quarried from the mountain, but not by human hands, crush the iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold. The great God has revealed to Your Majesty what is to come. The dream is true, and the explanation is trustworthy.”

46 Kini ne' Nebukatnesa'a Danieli'ma hia nanekema nentahino'a, Danielina agiafi avugosaregati kepri huno umaseno husga hunenteno, ofane mna nentake zantamina erita eta eme kre mna vunteho huno vahera zamasami'ne.

Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell down before Daniel and worshiped him, and ordered offerings of grain and incense to be made to him.

47 Hanki anante kini ne'mo'a amanage huno Danielina asami'ne. Tamagerfa huno kagri Anumzamo'a anumzamokizmi Anumza mani'neno, kini vahe'mokizmi Razami mani'neno, oku'ma me'nea zama eri fore'ma nehia Anumza mani'ne. Ana hu'neankinka ava'nama ke'noa ava'namofo oku antahi'zama'a emeri ama hunka nasami'ne.

The king said to Daniel, “Truly, your God is the God of gods, the Lord of kings, the revealer of mysteries, for you have been able to reveal this mystery.”

48 Anante kini ne'mo'a Danielina eri'zama'afintira avre anagamutegeno Babiloni mopafina ugota kva ne' mani'ne. Ana nehuno kini nemo'a mago'a marerirfa musezantami Danielina nemino, huntegeno Babiloni mopamofo agu'afima knare antahi'zane vahe'ma mani'naza vahera kegava huzmante'ne.

Then the king promoted Daniel to a high position and gave him many expensive gifts, making him governor over the whole province of Babylon and head of all the wise men of Babylon.

49 Hagi kini ne'mo'ma anama nehigeno'a Danieli'a kini nera antahigegeno, Satrakine, Mesakine, Abetnekonena huhampri zamantege'za, Babiloni mopafina mago'a eri'zantera kegava hu'naze. Ana nehazageno Danieli'a agra kini ne'mofo nompi mani'ne.

At Daniel's request, the king placed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in charge of the province of Babylon, and Daniel remained at the king's court.
