Daniel 3
1 Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el sap orekla ma sruloala gold se, fit eungoul fulata ac fit eu sralap, ac el sap tulokyak in acn tupasrpasr se pangpang Dura, apkuran nu ke siti Babylon.
Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits; he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.
2 Na tokosra el sapkin mwet pwapa lal nukewa in fahsreni — mwet fisrak nukewa, governor nukewa, governor akluo nukewa, mwet kol lun kais sie kain in orekma, mwet liyaung mwe kasrup, mwet nununku, mwet pwapa fulat ke kais sie acn, ac mwet kol saya nukewa lun acn we. Elos in fahsreni ac wi kisaela ma sroloala se ma Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el tulokunak ah.
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
3 Ke mwet fulat inge nukewa fahsreni nu ke kisa sac, ac tu ye mutun ma sruloala sac,
Then the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
4 sie mwet in sulkakin pweng lun tokosra el fahk ke sie pusra lulap, “Kowos, mwet mutunfacl nukewa, su sramsram ke kain in kas nukewa!
And the herald cried aloud: 'To you it is commanded, O peoples, nations, and languages,
5 Kowos ac fah lohng pusren mwe ukuk, ac toko pusren oboe, lyre, zither ac harp, ac oayapa kain mwe srital nukewa saya ac fah weang ma inge. Ke pacl se na mwe on inge ac kasla uh, kowos in pasrla ac alu nu ke ma sruloala gold se su Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el tulokonak inge.
that at what time ye hear the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up;
6 Kutena mwet su tia pasrla ac alu nu kac ac fah sisiyang nu in sie funyu in e firir uh.”
and whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.'
7 Ouinge ke elos lohng pusren mwe on uh kasla, mwet in mutunfacl nukewa ac kain in kas nukewa elos pasrla ac alu nu ke ma sruloala gold se ma Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el tulokunak ah.
Therefore at that time, when all the peoples heard the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the peoples, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
8 In pacl sac, kutu sin mwet Babylonia elos konauk pacl wo lalos in akkolukye mwet Jew ah.
Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and brought accusation against the Jews.
9 Elos fahk ouinge nu sel Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar, “Lela in loes moul lun tokosra!
They spoke and said to Nebuchadnezzar the king: 'O king, live for ever!
10 Tokosra tuh sapkin mu pusren mwe on uh fin kasla, mwet nukewa in pasrla ac alu nu ke ma sruloala gold sac,
Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image;
11 ac kutena mwet su tia pasrla ac alu nu kac ac fah sisiyang nu in sie funyu in e firir.
and whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
12 Oasr kutu mwet Jew ma kom sang in karingin acn ma apkuran nu Babylon — Shadrach, Meshach ac Abednego — su tia akos sap lun tokosra. Elos tiana alu nu sin god lom uh, ku pasrla nu ke ma sroloala se kom tulokunak ah.”
There are certain Jews whom thou hast appointed over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.'
13 Ke elos fahk ouinge, tokosra el arulana kasrkusrakak ac sap in utuku mwet tolu ah nu ye mutal.
Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then were these men brought before the king.
14 Ac el fahk nu seltal, “Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, ya pwaye lah komtal srangesr alu nu sin god luk uh, ac tia pasrla nu ke ma sroloala se nga tulokunak ah?
Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said unto them: 'Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, that ye serve not my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?
15 Komtal fin lohng pusren mwe ukuk, oboe, lyre, zither, harp, ac mwe on saya nukewa in kasla,’tal pasrla nu ke ma sroloala sac ac alu nu kac. Komtal fin tia, na ac sisiyang komtal nu ke funyu in e firir. Ku komtal nunku mu oasr god ac ku in molikomtalla?”
Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made, well; but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is the god that shall deliver you out of my hands?'
16 Na Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego topuk ac fahk nu sel, “O Tokosra, kut ac tia srike in fahk kutena kas in akwoye kut.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king: 'O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee in this matter.
17 God se su kut kulansap nu se uh fin ku in molikutla liki e firir ingan, ac liki ku lom, na El ac molikutla.
If our God whom we serve is able to deliver us, He will deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and out of thy hand, O king.
18 Tusruktu El finne tia molikutla, lela in arulana kalem sin tokosra lah kut tia ku in alu su sin god lom an, ac kut ac fah tiana pasrla nu ke ma sruloala gold se ma kom tulokunak an.”
But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.'
19 Na Nebuchadnezzar el arulana rarak ke kasrkusrak, ac ngetang suilya Shadrach, Meshach ac Abednego. Na el sap mwet lal uh in tanak e uh in fol pacl itkosr yohk liki pacl nukewa.
Then was Nebuchadnezzar filled with fury, and the form of his visage was changed, against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; he spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was wont to be heated.
20 Ac el sap mwet ma ku oemeet sin mwet mweun lal in kapriya mwet tolu inge ac siselosyang nu in funyu in e firir sac.
And he commanded certain mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.
21 Ouinge elos kaprelosi ke elos putena nuknuk, susu, ac ma nukewa, ac siselosyang nu in funyu sac.
Then these men were bound in their cloaks, their tunics, and their robes, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
22 Ac ke sripen tokosra el tuh sap in tayak e sac in arulana fol, oru e sac tuh esukak pac mwet ma us mwet tolu ah ac siselosyang nu ke e sac.
Therefore because the king's commandment was peremptory, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.
23 Na Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego srakna kapir, ac sisiyang elos nu in fiten e sac.
And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
24 In kitin pacl ah na Nebuchadnezzar el atuyak ke lut ac fwefela lal. Ac el siyuk sin mwet pwapa lal, “Ku tia mwet tolu pa kut kapriya ac sisang nu in e sac ah?” Ac elos fahk, “Aok, pwaye.”
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was alarmed, and rose up in haste; he spoke and said unto his ministers: 'Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?' They answered and said unto the king: 'True, O king.'
25 Na el sifil siyuk, “Ac efu ku mwet akosr pa nga liye forfor in e se ingo? Eltal tiana kapir ac wanginna akilenya mu eltal fol — ac mwet se akakosr ingo oana luman lipufan se.”
He answered and said: 'Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.'
26 Ouinge Nebuchadnezzar el fahsryang nwe ke mutun funyu firir sac, pangyak ac fahk, “Shadrach! Meshach! Abednego! Kowos su mwet kulansapu God Fulatlana, oatume!” Na elos tukenina oatui.
Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace; he spoke and said: 'Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of God Most High, come forth, and come hither.' Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, came forth out of the midst of the fire.
27 Mwet nukewa: fisrak, governor, governor akluo, ac mwet leum saya nukewa lal tokosra, elos fahsreni in liye mwet tolu ah, su tiana folla ke e sac. Aunsifalos ac nuknuk lalos tiana firiryak, ac elos tia pac fokulasrla ke e sac.
And the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, and the king's ministers, being gathered together, saw these men, that the fire had no power upon their bodies, nor was the hair of their head singed, neither were their cloaks changed, nor had the smell of fire passed on them.
28 Na tokosra el fahk, “Kaksakin God lal Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego! El supwama lipufan lal ac molela mwet su orekma nu sel ac lulalfongel inge. Elos tuh pilesrala moul lalos ac tia akos ma sap luk ke sripen elos tia lungse epasr nu sin kutena god sayen God lalos sifacna.
Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said: 'Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent His angel, and delivered His servants that trusted in Him, and have changed the king's word, and have yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.
29 “Na inge, nga sapkin tuh mwet in kutena mutunfacl, ku kutena kain in kas, fin fahk kutena kas ma ac akkolukye God lal Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego, ac fah sreyuki manol ke kupasr nukewa kacl, ac lohm sel fah rakinyuki nwe ke oana sie yol in kutkut. Wangin siena god su ku in oru inkanek in molela ouinge.”
Therefore I make a decree, that every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill; because there is no other god that is able to deliver after this sort.'
30 Ac tokosra el sifilpa kulak wal lal Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego in acn Babylon.
Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, in the province of Babylon.
