Daniel 6
1 Darius el sulela sel elan srisrngiya governor siofok longoul in karingin acn nukewa ma el leumi uh.
It has been good before Darius, and he has established over the kingdom satraps—one hundred and twenty—that they may be throughout the whole 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 three presidents higher than they, of whom Daniel [is] first, that these satraps may give to them an account, and the king have no loss.
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.
Then this Daniel has been overseer over the presidents and satraps, because that an excellent spirit [is] in him, and the king has thought to establish him over the whole 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 presidents and satraps have been seeking to find a cause of complaint against Daniel concerning the kingdom, and any cause of complaint and corruption they are not able to find, because that he [is] faithful, and any error and corruption have not been found in him.
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.”
Then these men are saying, “We do not find against this Daniel any cause of complaint, except we have found [it] against him in the Law 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 these presidents and satraps have assembled near the king, and thus they are saying to him: “O King Darius, live for all ages!
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.
Taken counsel have all the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counselors, and the governors, to establish a royal statute, and to strengthen an interdict, that any who seeks a petition from any god and man until thirty days, except of you, O king, is cast into a 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, O king, you establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it is not to be changed, as a law of Media and Persia, that does not pass away.”
9 Ouinge Tokosra Darius el sainiya ma sap sac.
Therefore King Darius has signed the writing and interdict.
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 Daniel, when he has known that the writing is signed, has gone up to his house, and the window being opened for him, in his upper chamber, toward Jerusalem, three times in a day he is kneeling on his knees, and praying, and confessing before his God, because that he was doing [it] before this.
11 Ke mwet lokoalok lal Daniel elos liye lah el pre nu sin God,
Then these men have assembled, and found Daniel praying and pleading grace before 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.”
then they have come near, indeed, they are saying before the king concerning the king’s interdict: “Have you not signed an interdict, that any man who seeks from any god and man until thirty days, except of you, O king, is cast into a den of lions?” The king has answered and said, “The thing [is] certain as a law of Media and Persia, that does not pass away.”
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 have answered, indeed, they are saying before the king, that, “Daniel, who [is] of the sons of the expulsion of Judah, has not placed on you, O king, [any] regard, nor on the interdict that you have signed, and three times in a day he is seeking his petition.”
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 has heard the matter, is greatly displeased at himself, and on Daniel he has set the heart to deliver him, and until the going up of the sun he was arranging 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 these men have assembled near the king, and are saying to the king, “Know, O king, that the law of Media and Persia [is] that any interdict and statute that the king establishes is not to be changed.”
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 has spoken, and they have brought Daniel, and have cast [him] into a den of lions. The king has answered and said to Daniel, “Your God, whom you are serving continually, delivers you Himself.”
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 a stone has been brought and placed at the mouth of the den, and the king has sealed it with his signet, and with the signet of his great men, that the purpose is not changed concerning 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.
Then the king has gone to his palace, and he has passed the night fasting, and dahavan have not been brought up before him, and his sleep has fled [from] off him.
19 Toang na in lutu se tok ah tokosra el sulaklak som nu ke luf sac.
Then the king rises in the early morning, at the light, and he has gone 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 at his coming near to the den, to Daniel, with a grieved voice, he cries. The king has answered and said to Daniel, “O Daniel, servant of the living God, your God, whom you are serving continually, is He able to deliver you from the lions?”
21 Ac Daniel el fahk nu sin tokosra, “Lela in loes moul lun tokosra!
Then Daniel has spoken with the king: “O king, live for all ages:
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 messenger, and has shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not injured me: because that before Him purity has been found in me; and also before you, O king, injury I have not done.”
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 was the king very glad for him, and he has commanded Daniel to be taken up out of the den, and Daniel has been taken up out of the den, and no injury has been found in him, because he has 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 has spoken, and they have brought those men who had accused Daniel, and to the den of lions they have cast them, they, their sons, and their wives; and they have not come to the lower part of the den until the lions have power over them, and all their bones they have broken small.
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 Darius the king has written to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the land: “Your peace be great!
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.
From before me a decree is made, that in every dominion of my kingdom they are trembling and fearing before the God of Daniel, for He [is] the living God, and abiding for all ages, and His kingdom that which [is] not destroyed, and His dominion [is] to the end.
27 El molela ac loangela; El oru ma usrnguk ac mwenmen In kusrao ac fin faclu. El molella Daniel liki ku lun lion uh.”
A deliverer, and rescuer, and doer of signs and wonders in the heavens and in earth [is] He who has delivered Daniel from the paw of the lions.”
28 Arulana yokyokelik wal lal Daniel in we lal Tokosra Darius, oayapa in we lal Tokosra Cyrus, mwet Persia.
And this Daniel has prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
