Daniēla 3
1 Ķēniņš Nebukadnecars lika taisīt tēlu no zelta; tam bija augstums sešdesmit olektis, un platums sešas olektis; to viņš uzcēla Bābeles valstī, Duras klajumā.
Nebuchadnezzar the king hath made an image of gold, its height sixty cubits, its breadth six cubits; he hath raised it up in the valley of Dura, in the province of Babylon;
2 Un ķēniņš Nebukadnecars sūtīja un sapulcināja lielkungus, valdītājus, zemes soģus, tiesas kungus, uzraugus, runas kungus, tiesnešus un visus valsts valdniekus, ka tie nāktu, to tēlu iesvētīt, ko ķēniņš Nebukadnecars bija uzcēlis.
and Nebuchadnezzar the king hath sent to gather the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the honourable judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the province, to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up.
3 Tad sanāca tie lielkungi, valdītāji, zemes soģi, tiesas kungi, uzraugi, runas kungi, tiesneši un visi valsts valdnieki uz šī tēla iesvētīšanu, ko ķēniņš Nebukadnecars bija uzcēlis, un tie stāvēja tā tēla priekšā, ko Nebukadnecars bija uzcēlis.
Then are gathered the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the honourable judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the province, to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up: and they are standing before the image that Nebuchadnezzar hath raised up.
4 Un tas izsaucējs izsauca ar stipru balsi: jums top piekodināts, jūs tautas, ļaudis un valodas,
And a crier is calling mightily: 'To you they are saying: O peoples, nations, and languages!
5 Kad jūs dzirdēsiet bazūnes skaņu un trumetes, kokles, vijoles, somastabules, jaukas dziesmas un visādus mūzikas rīkus, tad jums būs nomesties un to zelta tēlu pielūgt, ko ķēniņš Nebukadnecars uzcēlis.
at the time that ye hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, the symphony, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and do obeisance to the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up:
6 Un kas nenometīsies un nepielūgs, tas tai pašā stundā taps iemests degošā ceplī.
and whoso doth not fall down and do obeisance, in that hour he is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.'
7 Kad nu visi ļaudis dzirdēja bazūnes skaņu un trumetes, kokles, vijoles, somastabules un visādus mūzikas rīkus, tad visi ļaudis, tautas un valodas nometās un pielūdza to zelta tēlu, ko ķēniņš Nebukadnecars bija uzcēlis.
Therefore at that time, when all the peoples are hearing the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and all kinds of music, falling down are all the peoples, nations and languages, doing obeisance to the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up.
8 Tai pašā laikā kādi Kaldeju vīri piegāja un apsūdzēja Jūdus.
Therefore at that time drawn near have certain Chaldeans, and accused the Jews;
9 Tie iesāka un sacīja uz ķēniņu Nebukadnecaru: lai ķēniņš dzīvo mūžīgi!
they have answered, yea, they are saying to Nebuchadnezzar the king, 'O king, to the ages live!
10 Tu, ķēniņ, esi pavēlējis, ka visiem cilvēkiem, kad tie dzird bazūnes skaņu un trumetes, kokles, vijoles, somastabules, jaukas dziesmas un visādus mūzikas rīkus, būs nomesties un to zelta tēlu pielūgt,
Thou, O king, hast made a decree that every man who doth hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, doth fall down and do obeisance to the golden image;
11 Un ka to, kas pie zemes nenometīsies un nepielūgs, būs iemest degošā ceplī.
and whoso doth not fall down and do obeisance, is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
12 Te ir Jūdu vīri, ko tu esi iecēlis par Bābeles valsts valdniekiem, Sadrahs, Mesahs un AbedNegus, šie vīri neliek vērā, ko tu, ķēniņ, esi pavēlējis, un negodā tavus dievus un nepielūdz to zelta tēlu, ko tu esi uzcēlis.
There are certain Jews whom thou hast appointed over the work of the province of Babylon — Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, these men have not made of thee, O king, [any] regard; thy gods they are not serving, and to the golden image thou hast raised up — are not making obeisance.'
13 Tad Nebukadnecars ar dusmām un bardzību pavēlēja atvest Sadrahu, Mesahu un AbedNegu. Un tie vīri tapa atvesti ķēniņa priekšā.
Then Nebuchadnezzar, in anger and fury, hath said to bring in Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. Then these men have been brought in before the king.
14 Tad Nebukadnecars iesāka un uz tiem sacīja: vai jūs, Sadrah, Mesah un AbedNegu, tīši manus dievus necienījāt un to zelta tēlu nepielūdzāt, ko es esmu uzcēlis?
Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and said to them, 'Is [it] a laid plan, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego — my gods ye are not serving, and to the golden image that I have raised up ye are not doing obeisance?
15 Nu tad, taisāties, kad jūs dzirdēsiet bazūnes skaņu un trumetes, kokles, vijoles, somastabules, jaukas dziesmas un visādus mūzikas rīkus, tad nometaties un pielūdziet to tēlu, ko es esmu taisījis, bet ja jūs to nepielūgsiet, tad jūs tai pašā stundā tapsiet iemesti degošā ceplī; jo kurš ir tas Dievs, kas jūs no manām rokām varētu izpestīt?
Now, lo, ye are ready, so that at the time that ye hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and do obeisance to the image that I have made! — and lo, ye do no obeisance — in that hour ye are cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; who is that God who doth deliver you out of my hands?'
16 Tad Sadrahs, Mesahs un AbedNegus atbildēja un sacīja uz ķēniņu Nebukadnecaru: mums nevajag uz šo lietu atbildēt.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego have answered, yea, they are saying to the king Nebuchadnezzar, 'We have no need concerning this matter to answer thee.
17 Redzi, mūsu Dievs, ko mēs godājam, gan ir varens mūs izglābt no degoša cepļa un mūs arī izpestīt no tavas rokas, ak ķēniņ.
Lo, it is; our God whom we are serving, is able to deliver us from a burning fiery furnace; and from thy hand, O king, He doth deliver.
18 Un jebšu Viņš to arī nedarītu, taču tev būs zināt, ka mēs tavus dievus negribam godāt nedz pielūgt to zelta tēlu, ko tu esi taisījis.
And lo — not! be it known to thee, O king, that thy gods we are not serving, and to the golden image thou hast raised up we do no obeisance.'
19 Tad Nebukadnecars apskaitās, un viņa vaiga izskats pārvērtās pret Sadrahu, Mesahu un AbedNegu, un viņš atbildēja un pavēlēja, cepli septiņkārt karstāku kurināt nekā to mēdza kurināt.
Then Nebuchadnezzar hath been full of fury, and the expression of his face hath been changed concerning Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego; he answered and said to heat the furnace seven times above that which it is seen to be heated;
20 Un viņš pavēlēja tiem stiprākiem vīriem, kas bija viņa karaspēkā, siet Sadrahu, Mesahu un AbedNegu un iemest degošā ceplī.
and to certain mighty men who [are] in his force he hath said to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to cast into the burning fiery furnace.
21 Tā šie vīri tapa saistīti ar saviem mēteļiem, kurpēm, cepurēm un citām drēbēm un iemesti degošā ceplī.
Then these men have been bound in their coats, their tunics, and their turbans, and their clothing, and have been cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
22 Kad nu ķēniņa vārds drīz bija jāizdara un ceplis bija briesmīgi karsts, tad tās liesmas nomaitāja tos vīrus, kas Sadrahu, Mesahu un AbedNegu iemeta.
Therefore, because that the word of the king is urgent, and the furnace heated exceedingly, those men who have taken up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego — killed them hath the spark of the fire.
23 Bet tie trīs vīri, Sadrahs, Mesahs un AbedNegus, iekrita saistīti tai degošā ceplī.
And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, have fallen down in the midst of the burning fiery furnace — bound.
24 Tad ķēniņš Nebukadnecars iztrūcinājās un pacēlās ātri un sacīja uz saviem runas kungiem: vai mēs neesam trīs vīrus saistītus metuši ugunī? Tie atbildēja un sacīja uz ķēniņu: tā tas ir, kungs ķēniņ.
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king hath been astonished, and hath risen in haste; he hath answered and said to his counsellors, 'Have we not cast three men into the midst of the fire — bound?' They have answered and are saying to the king, 'Certainly, O king.'
25 Viņš atbildēja un sacīja: raugi, es redzu četrus vīrus vaļā staigājam ugunī, un tiem nekas nekaiš un tā ceturtā izskats ir kā kādam dievu dēlam.
He answered and hath said, 'Lo, I am seeing four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the appearance of the fourth [is] like to a son of the gods.'
26 Tad Nebukadnecars piegāja pie tā degošā cepļa durvīm, iesāka un sacīja: Sadrah, Mesah un AbedNegu, jūs tā visuaugstākā Dieva kalpi, izejiet ārā un nāciet šurp. Tad Sadrahs, Mesahs un AbedNegus izgāja no uguns ārā.
Then Nebuchadnezzar hath drawn near to the gate of the burning fiery furnace; he hath answered and said, 'Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, servants of God Most High come forth, yea, come;' then come forth do Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, from the midst of the fire;
27 Un tie lielkungi, valdītāji, zemes soģi un ķēniņa runas kungi sapulcinājās, šos vīrus apraudzīt, ka uguns viņu miesas nebija pārvarējis, un ka viņu galvas mati nebija apsviluši, un viņu mēteļi nebija aizskarti, ka arī nekāda deguma smaka pie tiem netapa saosta.
and gathered together, the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, and the counsellors of the king, are seeing these men, that the fire hath no power over their bodies, and the hair of their head hath not been singed, and their coats have not changed, and the smell of fire hath not passed on them.
28 Tad Nebukadnecars iesāka un sacīja: slavēts lai ir Sadraha, Mesaha un AbedNegus Dievs, kas Savu eņģeli sūtījis un Savus kalpus atpestījis, kas uz Viņu paļāvušies un pārkāpuši ķēniņa vārdu un savas miesas nodevuši, lai citu dievu ne godātu nedz pielūgtu kā vien savu Dievu.
Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and hath said, 'Blessed [is] the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who hath sent His messenger, and hath delivered His servants who trusted on Him, and the word of the king changed, and gave up their bodies that they might not serve nor do obeisance to any god except to their own God.
29 Tādēļ es pavēlu, ka visus ļaudis, tautas un mēles, kas Sadraha, Mesaha un AbedNegus Dievu zaimo, būs sasist gabalos un viņu namus darīt par mēslu čupu. Jo cita tāda Dieva nav, kas tā varētu atpestīt;
And by me a decree is made, that any people, nation, and language, that doth speak erroneously concerning the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, pieces he is made, and its house is made a dunghill, because that there is no other god who is able thus to deliver.'
30 Un ķēniņš Sadraham, Mesaham un AbedNegum deva lielu varu Bābeles valstī.
Then the king hath caused Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to prosper in the province of Babylon.
