< Danyeri 4 >

1 Kabaka Nebukadduneeza n’alangirira eri abantu, n’amawanga n’abantu ab’ennimi eza buli ngeri, mu nsi yonna bw’ati nti: Emirembe gibeere nammwe!
Ɔhene Nebukadnessar, too saa nkra yi kɔmaa nnipa ne aman ne kasa ahodoɔ a ɛwɔ ewiase sɛ: Ɛnsi mo yie mmoroso!
2 Lye ssanyu lyange okubategeeza ku bigambo eby’amagero era ebikulu Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo byankoledde.
Ɛyɛ me anigye sɛ mo nyinaa ahunu biribi a ɛfa nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ ne anwanwadeɛ a Ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn ayɛ ama me.
3 Obubonero bwe nga bukulu,
Hwɛ sɛdeɛ ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ yɛ kɛseɛ fa!
4 Nze Nebukadduneeza, nnali mpumulidde mu maka gange wakati mu bugagga nga mpumuliddeko mu lubiri lwange.
Na me, Nebukadnessar, mete mʼahemfie, medi me ho so na me ho tɔ me.
5 Ne ndoota ekirooto ekyantiisa; bwe nnali nga ngalamidde ku kitanda kyange, ne ndaba ebifaananyi mu kwolesebwa, ebyantiisa.
Nanso, mesoo daeɛ bi a, ɛbɔɔ me hu yie. Meda me mpa so no, mfoni a ɛfaa mʼani so ne anisoadehunu a menyaeɛ no hunahunaa me.
6 Kyennava ndagira abasajja bonna abagezigezi ab’e Babulooni baleetebwe mu maaso gange bantegeeze amakulu g’ekirooto.
Ɛno enti, mehyɛ ma wɔfrɛɛ anyansafoɔ a wɔwɔ Babilonia nyinaa sɛ wɔmmɛkyerɛ me daeɛ no ase.
7 Abalogo, n’abafumu, n’Abakaludaaya, n’abalaguzi ne bajja, ne mbategeeza ekirooto, naye ne balemwa okuntegeeza amakulu gaakyo.
Ɛberɛ a nkonyaayifoɔ, pɛadeɛhunufoɔ, Kaldeafoɔ ne ntafowayifoɔ no baeɛ no, mekaa daeɛ no kyerɛɛ wɔn, nanso wɔantumi ankyerɛ me aseɛ.
8 Naye oluvannyuma Danyeri gwe natuuma Berutesazza ng’erinnya lya katonda wange bwe liri, era nga n’omwoyo ogwa bakatonda abatukuvu guli mu ye, n’ajja mu maaso gange ne mutegeeza ekirooto.
Akyire yi, Daniel (a yɛtoo no din Beltesasar, a ɛyɛ me nyame din, ɛfiri sɛ, na anyame kronkron no sunsum wɔ ne mu) baa mʼanim, na mekaa daeɛ no kyerɛɛ no.
9 Ne mugamba nti, “Berutesazza, omukulu w’abafumu, mmanyi ng’omwoyo ogwa bakatonda abatukuvu guli mu ggwe, so tewali kigambo eky’ekyama ekikuzibuwalira. Ntegeeza ekirooto kyange, n’amakulu gaakyo.
Meka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Beltesasar, nkonyaayifoɔ panin, menim sɛ, anyame kronkron no sunsum wɔ wo mu, ɛno enti, ɛnnyɛ wo den sɛ wobɛkyerɛ ahintasɛm biara ase. Afei, me daeɛ no ni, kyerɛ me aseɛ.
10 Kuno kwe kwolesebwa kwe nafunye nga ngalamidde ku kitanda kyange; nalabye omuti wakati mu nsi, nga muwanvu nnyo nnyini.
Ɛberɛ a meda me mpa so no, daeɛ a mesoeɛ ne sɛ, mehunuu dua bi a ɛsi asase mfimfini a ɛware tenteenten.
11 Omuti ne gukula ne guba gwa maanyi, n’entikko yaagwo n’etuuka ku ggulu era nga gulengerwa okuva ku nkomerero y’ensi zonna.
Dua no nyini yɛɛ dutan kɛseɛ na ne tentene kɔduruu soro, a wohunu no asase so baabiara.
12 Ebikoola byagwo byali birungi okutunulako, n’ebibala byagwo nga bingi, era nga gulina emmere emala bonna. Ensolo enkambwe ez’omu nsiko zaatuulanga mu kisiikirize kyagwo, n’ennyonyi ez’omu bbanga zaatuulanga ku matabi gaagwo, na buli kiramu kyonna kyalisibwanga.
Na ne nhahan yɛ frɔmm fɛɛfɛɛfɛ, na aso aba bebree, na ɛso wɔ aduane ma obiara. Na wiram mmoa te ne nwunu ase, na ewiem nnomaa nso yɛ wɔn pirebuo wɔ ne mman mu.
13 “Awo mu kiseera ekyo nga ngalamidde ku kitanda kyange, mu kwolesebwa, ne ndaba omubaka omutukuvu ng’ava mu ggulu.
“Meda me mpa so no, mehunuu ɔbɔfoɔ kronkron bi a ɔfiri soro reba fam wɔ mʼanisoadehunu no mu.
14 N’ayogerera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, ‘Tema omuti, otemeko n’amatabi gaagwo; okunkumule amalagala gaagwo, osaasaanye n’ebibala byagwo, n’ennyonyi zibuuke zive ku matabi gaagwo.
Ɔbɔfoɔ no teaam sɛ, ‘Twa dua no to fam na twitwa ne mman no nyinaa. Poro ne nhahan no, na to nʼaba no pete. Pam mmoa no firi ne nwunu ase, na pam ewiem nnomaa no firi ne mman so.
15 Naye ekikonge ky’ekikolo kyagwo kireke mu ttaka, nga kiriko ekyuma ekisiba n’ekikomo, mu muddo omuto ku ttale. “‘Muleke abisiwale n’omusulo ogw’omu ggulu, era muleke agabanire wamu omuddo, n’ensolo ez’omu nsiko.
Nanso gya dunsini no ne ne nhini a dadeɛ ne kɔbere akyekyere, na ɛserɛ atwa ho ahyia no. “‘Afei, ma ɔsoro bosuo mfɔ no kyaww, na ma ɔne mmoa ntena wɔ wiram.
16 Era n’amagezi ge ag’obuntu gakyusibwe, afuuke ng’ensolo enkambwe ey’omu nsiko okumala emyaka musanvu.
Na ma nʼadwene nsesa na ɛnyɛ sɛ aboa deɛ. Na mfeɛ nson ntwa ne tiri so.
17 “‘Omusango ogwo gulangiriddwa ababaka, abatukuvu be baasanguza ekisaliddwawo, abalamu balyoke bategeere ng’Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo y’afuga obwakabaka bw’abantu, era abuwa buli gw’asiima, era alonda abantu abasemberayo ddala okuba aba wansi okubafuga.’
“‘Asomafoɔ asi gyinaeɛ dada; na akronkronfoɔ abu atɛn sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ateasefoɔ nyinaa bɛte aseɛ sɛ, Ɔsorosoroni no na ɔdi ewiase ahemman so, na ɔde ma obiara a ɔpɛ, mpo, sɛ ɔyɛ onipa teta.’
18 “Ekyo kye kirooto, nze Kabaka Nebukadduneeza kye naloose. Kaakano ggwe Berutesazza, ntegeeza amakulu gaakyo kubanga tewali n’omu ku basajja abagezigezi mu bwakabaka bwange ayinza okuntegeeza amakulu gaakyo. Naye ggwe oyinza, kubanga omwoyo ogwa bakatonda abatukuvu guli mu ggwe.”
“Beltesasar, saa daeɛ yi na me Ɔhene Nebukadnessar soeɛ. Afei, kyerɛ me aseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, anyansafoɔ a wɔwɔ mʼahemman mu nyinaa antumi ankyerɛ me aseɛ. Na wo deɛ wobɛtumi akyerɛ me, ɛfiri sɛ, anyame kronkron sunsum no wɔ wo mu.”
19 Awo Danyeri eyayitibwanga Berutesazza n’atawanyizibwa mu mutima okumala akabanga, ne yeeraliikirira. Kabaka n’amugamba nti, “Berutesazza, ekirooto n’amakulu gaakyo bireme okukweraliikiriza.” Berutesazza n’addamu nti, “Mukama wange, ekirooto kibe nga kyogera ku abo abakukyawa, n’amakulu gaakyo gabe nga googera ku balabe bo!
Daniel (a wɔsane frɛ no Beltesasar no) tee daeɛ no, ɔyɛɛ basaa kakra; ne ho dwirii no na nʼadwene mu haa no. Nti, ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Beltesasar, mma daeɛ no ne nʼasekyerɛ mmɔ wo hu.” Beltesasar buaa sɛ, “Yei deɛ, Nana, anka daeɛ no ne ne nkyerɛaseɛ no ɛmpare wo na ɛnkɔ wʼatamfoɔ so!
20 Omuti gwe walaba, ogwakula ne guba gwa maanyi, ogwawanvuwa ne gutuuka ku ggulu, nga gulabibwa ensi yonna,
Ao, Nana, wohunuu dua bi a ɛnyini yɛɛ dutan kɛseɛ a ne tentene kɔduruu soro, na wohunu no asase nyinaa so.
21 ogwaliko amalagala amalungi n’ebibala byagwo nga bingi nnyo, era nga guliko n’emmere emala bonna, nga n’ensolo ez’omu nsiko zituula mu kisiikirize kyagwo, nga n’ennyonyi ez’omu bbanga zisiisira ku matabi gaagwo,
Na ne nhahan yɛ frɔmm fɛɛfɛɛfɛ a aso aba bebree, na ɛso wɔ aduane ma obiara. Na wiram mmoa te ne nwunu ase, na ewiem nnomaa nso yɛ wɔn pirebuo wɔ ne mman mu.
22 ye ggwe, ayi kabaka! Okuze n’oba mukulu era n’oba w’amaanyi; n’obukulu bwo bweyongedde ne butuuka ku ggulu, n’obuyinza bwo butuuse ku nkomerero y’ensi.
Nana, mesrɛ ka, saa dua no yɛ wo. Ɛfiri sɛ, woatu mpɔn, ahoɔden so ne kɛseyɛ mu. Wo kɛseyɛ no kɔduru ɔsoro, na wʼadedie no kɔ akyirikyiri kɔduru asase ano.
23 “Ggwe ayi kabaka walabye omubaka, era omutukuvu ng’akka okuva mu ggulu, n’ayogera nti, ‘Tema omuti oguzikirize, naye ekikonge ky’ekikolo kyagwo kireke mu ttaka ng’okisibye n’ekyuma n’ekikomo mu muddo omuto ogw’oku ttale; era muleke abisiwazibwe omusulo ogw’omu ggulu, n’omugabo gwe gubeere n’ensolo enkambwe ez’omu nsiko, emyaka musanvu.’
“Afei, Nana, wohunuu ɔbɔfoɔ kronkron a ɔfiri soro reba fam, na ɔreka sɛ, ‘Twa dua no to fam na sɛe no. Nanso, gya dunsini no ne ne nhini a dadeɛ ne kɔbere akyekyere, na ɛserɛ atwa ho ahyia no. Afei, ma ɔsoro bosuo mfɔ no kyaww, na ma ɔne mmoa ntena wɔ wiram. Na ma nʼadwene nsesa na ɛnyɛ sɛ aboa deɛ. Na mfeɛ nson ntwa ne tiri so.’
24 “Gano ge makulu, ayi kabaka, era lino lye tteeka Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo ly’alangiriridde mukama wange kabaka.
“Daeɛ no asekyerɛ nie, Nana, atɛn a Ɔsorosoroni no abu atia wo no nie.
25 Oligobebwa okuva mu bantu era olibeera n’ensolo ez’omu nsiko; olirya omuddo ng’ente, era olibisiwala okumala emyaka musanvu okutuusa lw’olitegeera ng’Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo y’afuga obwakabaka bw’abantu, era abugabira buli gw’asiima.
Wɔbɛpam wo afiri nnipa mu, na wo ne wiram mmoa bɛtena wiram. Wobɛwe ɛserɛ te sɛ nantwie, na ɔsoro bosuo bɛfɔ wo kyaww. Mfeɛ nson bɛtwa wo tiri so akɔsi sɛ, wobɛhunu sɛ, Ɔsorosoroni no na ɔdi ewiase ahemman so, na ɔde ma obiara a ɔpɛ.
26 Ekiragiro eky’okuleka ekikonge ky’ekikolo ky’omuti, amakulu gaakyo ge gano: obwakabaka bwo bulikuddizibwa bw’olitegeera ng’eggulu lye lifuga.
Hyɛ a wɔhyɛ ma wɔgyaa dunsini no ne ne nhini no wɔ asase mu no kyerɛ sɛ, sɛ wohunu sɛ ɔsoro na ɛdi tumi no a, wo nsa bɛsane aka wʼahemman.
27 Noolwekyo, ayi kabaka nteesa nti; weetoowaze olekeyo ebibi byo okole eby’obutuukirivu, era n’ebikolwa byo ebitali bya butuukirivu obireke obeere wa kisa eri abanyigirizibwa, olyoke ofuuke mugagga okusinga nga bw’oli kaakano.”
Ne saa enti, Ao, Nana Nebukadnessar, mesrɛ wo, tie mʼafotuo. Gyae bɔneyɛ, na yɛ deɛ ɛtene. Gyae wʼatirimuɔdensɛm na yɛ ahummɔborɔ ma ahiafoɔ, na twe wo ho firi wo tete amumuyɛ no ho. Ebia, woyɛ saa a, wobɛkɔ so adi yie.”
28 Ebyo byonna byatuukirira ku Kabaka Nebukadduneeza.
Na saa nneɛma yi nyinaa baa Ɔhene Nebukadnessar so.
29 Bwe wayitawo emyezi kkumi n’ebiri, kabaka yali atambulira ku kasolya k’olubiri lwe olwa Babulooni,
Abosome dumienu akyi a na ɔretu mpase wɔ ahemfie no abansoro atifi wɔ Babilonia no,
30 n’ayogera nti, “Ono si ye Babulooni omukulu gwe nazimba n’amaanyi gange amangi okuba ekibuga ekikulu eky’ekitiibwa eky’obwakabaka bwange?”
ɔtoo nʼani, hwɛɛ kuro no mu, na ɔkaa sɛ, “Ɛnyɛ Babilonia kuro kɛseɛ a mede me tumi akyekyere ayɛ no ɔhempɔn atenaeɛ de ahyɛ mʼahennie animuonyam ni anaa?”
31 Awo bwe yali ng’akyayogera, eddoboozi ne liva mu ggulu nga ligamba nti, “Kuno kwe kulangirira okukukwatako Kabaka Nebukadduneeza: obwakabaka bwo bukuggyiddwako.
Ɛberɛ a ɔgu so reka saa nsɛm no, nne bi firi soro baa sɛ, “Wo, Ɔhene Nebukadnessar, wɔka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ wonnyɛ ɔhene wɔ ahemman yi so bio.
32 Oligobebwa mu bantu era olibeera n’ensolo okumala emyaka musanvu okutuusa lw’olitegeera ng’Oyo Ali Waggulu ennyo y’afuga obwakabaka obw’abantu era abuwa buli gw’asiima.”
Wɔbɛpam wo afiri nnipa mu. Wo ne wiram mmoa bɛtena wiram. Na wobɛwe ɛserɛ te sɛ nantwie. Mfeɛ nson bɛtwa wo tiri so kɔsi sɛ wobɛhunu sɛ, Ɔsorosoroni no di ewiase ahemman so, na ɔde ma obiara a, ɔpɛ.”
33 Amangwago ebyayogerwa ku Nebukadduneeza ne bituukirira. N’agobebwa mu bantu era n’alya omuddo ng’ente. Omubiri gwe ne gutoba omusulo ogw’omu ggulu okutuusa enviiri ze lwe zaakula ng’ebyoya by’empungu n’enjala ze ng’enjala z’ennyonyi.
Amonom hɔ ara nkɔmhyɛ no baa mu. Wɔpamoo Nebukadnessar firii nnipa mu. Ɔwee ɛserɛ te sɛ nantwie, na ɔsoro bosuo fɔɔ no kyaww. Ɔtenaa saa tebea no mu kɔsii sɛ, ne tirinwi yɛɛ atentene te sɛ ɔkɔdeɛ ntakra, na nʼabɔwerɛ yɛɛ sɛ anomaa bɔwerɛ.
34 Oluvannyuma lw’ebbanga eryo, nze, Nebukadduneeza, ne nnyimusa amaaso gange eri eggulu, amagezi gange ne gakomawo. Ne ntendereza Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo, ne muwa ekitiibwa ne mugulumiza oyo abeera omulamu emirembe n’emirembe.
Saa ɛberɛ yi twaam no, me, Nebukadnessar, memaa mʼani so hwɛɛ soro. Mʼani baa me ho so, na mekamfo Ɔsorosoroni no, na metontom deɛ ɔte aseɛ daa no meyii no ayɛ sɛ:
35 Abantu bonna ab’oku nsi
Asase so nnipa nyinaa,
36 Mu kiseera kyekimu okutegeera kwange ne kukomawo, n’ekitiibwa n’obuyinza obw’obwakabaka bwange ne bunzirira. Abawi b’amagezi bange n’abakungu bange ne bannoonya, ne banziriza entebe yange ey’obwakabaka ne nnyongerwako obukulu bungi okusinga ne bwe nalina.
Ɛberɛ a mʼani baa me ho so no, berɛ korɔ no mu ara na me anidie ne me kɛseyɛ a ɛhyɛ me ɔman no animuonyam no baeɛ. Mʼafotufoɔ ne mʼaberempɔn hwehwɛɛ me, na wɔsane de me sii mʼahennie so bio, na mʼanimuonyam bɛyɛɛ kɛse kyɛnee kane no.
37 Kale nze Nebukadduneeza kyennaava mmutendereza era ne mmuwa ekitiibwa ne mmugulumiza Kabaka ow’eggulu, kubanga emirimu gye gyonna gya mazima n’amakubo ge ga nsonga, n’abo ab’amalala abakkakkanya.
Afei, me Nebukadnessar, mekamfo ma no so, hyɛ ɔsorohene animuonyam, de anidie ma no. Ne nneyɛeɛ nyinaa yɛ pɛ, na ɛyɛ nokorɛ, na ɔbɛtumi abrɛ ahantanfoɔ ase.
