Daniel 6
1 Darius el sulela sel elan srisrngiya governor siofok longoul in karingin acn nukewa ma el leumi uh.
And it pleased Darius, and he set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, to be in all his kingdom;
2 Sayen mwet inge, el sulella Daniel ac mwet luo pac sayal in liyaung orekma lun governor inge, ac in taran pac fahsriyen mwe kasrup lal tokosra uh.
and over them three governors, of whom one was Daniel; for the satraps to give account to them, that the king should not be troubled.
3 Tiana paht toko, arulana kalem lah orekma lal Daniel uh wo liki mwet wial ma kol orekma, oayapa governor uh kewa. Ac ke sripen el arulana pisrla ke orekma lal, tokosra el nunkauk elan oakilya Daniel tuh elan leumi tokosrai sac nufon.
And Daniel was over them, for [there was] an excellent spirit in him; and the king set him over all his kingdom.
4 Na mwet kol wial, ac governor uh, elos srike in suk mwatal ke ouiyen orekma kunal nu ke tokosrai uh, tusruktu elos tiana konauk kutena sripa ma elos ku in akkolukyal kac, mweyen Daniel el arulana pwaye ac suwohs in orekma lal, ac el tia orala kutena ma sufal ku sesuwos.
Then the governors and satraps sought to find occasion against Daniel; but they found against him no occasion, nor trespass, nor error, because he was faithful.
5 Na elos fahk nu sin sie sin sie, “Kut ac tia ku in konauk kutena ma in akkolukyalla Daniel kac, sayen ma nu ke alu lal uh.”
And the governors said, We shall not find occasion against Daniel, except in the ordinances of his God.
6 Ouinge elos som nu yorol tokosra ac fahk nu sel, “Tokosra Darius, lela in loes moul lun Leum Fulat luk!
Then the governors and satraps stood by the king, and said to him, King Darius, live for ever.
7 Kut nukewa su karingin tokosrai lom uh — mwet kol ke orekma, governor uh, governor akluo uh, ac mwet fulat pac saya — nunak sela tuh tokosra in orala sie ma sap, ac akkeye in arulana ku. Kom in sapkin ouinge, tuh ke lusen len tolngoul, wangin mwet in siyuk ke kutena ma sin kutena god, ku sin kutena mwet, a in siyuk sum mukena ke mwe enenu lal. Mwet se fin kunausla ma sap se inge in fah sisiyang el nu in luf se ma sessesla ke lion uh.
All who preside over thy kingdom, captains and satraps, chiefs and local governors, have taken counsel together, to establish by a royal statute and to confirm a decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions.
8 Ke ma inge, lela tokosra in orala ma sap se inge ac sainiya, na ac fah akkeyeyuk tuh in sie ma sap lun mwet Mede ac mwet Persia, su ac fah tia ku in ikilyukla.”
Now then, O king, establish the decree, and publish a writ, that the decree of the Persians and Medes be not changed.
9 Ouinge Tokosra Darius el sainiya ma sap sac.
Then king Darius commanded the decree to be written.
10 Daniel el ne lohng lah ma sap sac sainiyuki, a el som nu ke twek se ke lohm sel su oasr winto tulwala nu Jerusalem, ac oru oana ke el oru pacl nukewa. El ikasla sie winto ah, ac sikukmutunteyak ac pre nu sin God pacl tolu ke len se.
And when Daniel knew that the decree was ordered, he went into his house; and his windows were opened in his chambers toward Jerusalem, and three times in the day he knelt upon his knees, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he used to do before.
11 Ke mwet lokoalok lal Daniel elos liye lah el pre nu sin God,
Then these men watched, and found Daniel praying and supplicating to his God.
12 elos nukewa som nu yorol tokosra in akkolukyal Daniel. Elos fahk, “O Tokosra, kom tuh sainiya ma sap se fahk mu ke inmasrlon len tolngoul, kutena mwet su siyuk kutena ma sin kutena god ku kutena mwet sayom, ac fah sisiyang nu in luf se ma sessesla ke lion.” Ac tokosra el fahk, “Pwaye, ma sap na ku se pa ingan, sie ma sap lun mwet Mede ac mwet Persia, su ac tia ku in ikilyukla.”
And they came and said to the king, O king, hast thou not made a decree, that whatsoever man shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, but of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? And the king said, The word is true, and the decree of the Medes and Persians shall not pass.
13 Na elos fahk nu sel tokosra, “Daniel, sie sin mwet sruoh Judah, el tia akfulatye tokosra, ku akos ma sap se tokosra el orala ah. El srakna pre pacl tolu ke len se, oana ke el oru pacl nukewa.”
Then they answered and said before the king, Daniel of the children of the captivity of Judea, has not submitted to thy decree; and three times in the day he makes his requests of his God.
14 Ke tokosra el lohng ma inge el arulana supwarla kac, ac sang na kuiyal in suk inkanek in molella Daniel. El srike nwe ke na fongeni.
Then the king, when he heard the saying, was much grieved for Daniel, and he greatly exerted himself for Daniel to deliver him: and he exerted himself till evening to deliver him.
15 Na mwet lokoalok lal Daniel elos foloko nu yorol tokosra ac fahk nu sel, “Tokosra etu na tari lah ke oakwuk lun mwet Mede ac mwet Persia uh, wangin ma sap ma tokosra oakiya ku in ikilyukla.”
Then those men said to the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, that we must not change any decree or statute which the king shall make.
16 Ke ma inge tokosra el sapkin in utukla Daniel ac sisiyang el nu in luf se ma sessesla ke lion. Ac el fahk nu sel Daniel, “Lela God lom, su kom arulana oaru in kulansupu, Elan loangekom.”
Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. But the king said to Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will deliver thee.
17 Itukyang eot lulap se in afinya mutun luf sac, na tokosra el filiya sil lal sifacna ac sil lun mwet wal fulat lal fin eot sac, tuh in fah wangin mwet ku in ikasulla Daniel.
And they brought a stone, and put it on the mouth of the den; and the king sealed [it] with his ring, and with the ring of his nobles; that the case might not be altered with regard to Daniel.
18 Na tokosra el folokla nu inkul fulat sel, ac koflana motulla in fong sac. El tiana mongo, ac tia pacna lela in oasr mwe akpwar orek nu sel.
And the king departed to his house, and lay down fasting, and they brought him no food; and his sleep departed from him. But God shut the mouths of the lions, and they did not molest Daniel.
19 Toang na in lutu se tok ah tokosra el sulaklak som nu ke luf sac.
Then the king arose very early in the morning, and came in haste to the den of lions.
20 Ke el apkuranyang nu kac, el orala pang na elya se ac fahk, “Daniel, mwet kulansap lun God moul! Ku God se lom, su kom arulana moniyuk in kulansup nu se, El molikomla liki lion uh?”
And when he drew near to the den, he cried with a loud voice, Daniel, servant of the living God, has thy God, whom thou servest continually, been able to deliver thee from the lion’s mouth?
21 Ac Daniel el fahk nu sin tokosra, “Lela in loes moul lun tokosra!
And Daniel said to the king, O king, live for ever.
22 God El supwama lipufan lal in tuh kaliya oalin lion uh, oru elos tia ku in ngalisyuwi, mweyen El etu lah wangin ma sufal luk, ac wangin pac ma nga orala koluk nu sum, O Tokosra.”
My God has sent his angel, and stopped the lions’ mouths, and they have not hurt me: for uprightness was found in me before him; and moreover before thee, O king, I have committed no trespass.
23 Tokosra el arulana enganak, ac sap in amacyak Daniel liki luf sac. Ouinge elos amakunulak ac liye lah wangin kutena ma sikyak nu sel, mweyen el lulalfongi God.
Then the king was very glad for him, and he commanded to bring Daniel out of the den. So Daniel was brought out of the den, and there was found no hurt upon him, because he believed in his God.
24 Na tokosra el sap in sruhu nufon mwet ma tuh akkolukyal Daniel, ac el sap in sisiyang elos, wi mutan kialos ac tulik natulos, nu in luf se ma sessesla ke lion ah. Meet liki na elos sun kapin luf sac, lion uh atuyang nu selos ac kotkoteya nufon sri kaclos uh.
And the king commanded, and they brought the men that had accused Daniel, and they were cast into the den of lions, they, and their children, and their wives: and they reached not the bottom of the den before the lions had the mastery of them, and utterly broke to pieces all their bones.
25 Na Tokosra Darius el sim nu sin mwet in mutunfacl nukewa ac kain in kas nukewa fin faclu, ac fahk: “Paing kowos nukewa!
Then king Darius wrote to all nations, tribes, [and] languages, who dwell in all the earth, [saying], Peace be multiplied to you.
26 Nga sapkin nu sin mwet in mutunfacl nukewa su nga leumi, tuh mwet nukewa in sangeng ac akfulatye God lal Daniel. “El sie God moul, Ac El fah leum nwe tok. Tokosrai lal fah tiana kunausyukla, Ac ku lal ac fah wangin saflaiya.
This decree has been set forth by me in every dominion of my kingdom, that [men] tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living and eternal God, and his kingdom shall not be destroyed, and his dominion is for ever.
27 El molela ac loangela; El oru ma usrnguk ac mwenmen In kusrao ac fin faclu. El molella Daniel liki ku lun lion uh.”
He helps and delivers, and works signs and wonders in the heaven and on the earth, who has rescued Daniel from the power of the lions.
28 Arulana yokyokelik wal lal Daniel in we lal Tokosra Darius, oayapa in we lal Tokosra Cyrus, mwet Persia.
And Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
