Daniela 2
1 Ary tamin’ ny taona faharoa nanjakan’ i Nebokadnezara dia nanonofy Nebokadnezara, ka nitebiteby ny fanahiny, ary tsy nahita torimaso izy.
And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar has dreamed dreams, and his spirit moves itself, and his sleep has been against him;
2 Dia nasain’ ny mpanjaka nantsoina ny ombiasy sy ny mpisikidy sy ny mpanana ody ary ny Kaldeana hilaza amin’ ny mpanjaka ny nofiny. Dia tonga ireny ka nitsangana teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka.
and the king says to call for enchanters, and for conjurers, and for sorcerers, and for Chaldeans, to declare to the king his dreams. And they come in and stand before the king;
3 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Nanonofy aho, ka mitebiteby ta-hahalala ny nofy ny fanahiko.
and the king says to them, “I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is moved to know the dream.”
4 Dia niteny tamin’ ny mpanjaka amin’ ny teny Aramiana ireny Kaldeana ireny ka nanao hoe: Ry mpanjaka ô, ho velona mandrakizay anie ianao, ambarao aminay mpanomponao ny nofy, dia holazainay ny heviny.
And the Chaldeans speak to the king [in] Aramaic, “O king, live for all ages, tell the dream to your servants, and we show the interpretation.”
5 Dia namaly ny mpanjaka ka nanao tamin’ ireny Kaldeana ireny hoe: Efa niloa-bava aho; raha tsy hampahafantarinareo ahy ny nofy sy ny heviny, dia hotetitetehina ianareo, ary ny tranonareo hatao trano fivoahana.
The king has answered and said to the Chaldeans, “The thing is gone from me; if you do not cause me to know the dream and its interpretation, you are made pieces, and your houses are made dunghills;
6 Fa raha milaza ny nofy sy ny heviny kosa ianareo, dia hahazo fanomezana sy valim-pitia ary voninahitra be; koa ambarao ahy ny nofy mbamin’ ny heviny.
and if the dream and its interpretation you show, gifts, and fee, and great glory you receive from before me, therefore the dream and its interpretation you show me.”
7 Dia namaly indray ireo ka nanao hoe: Aoka ny mpanjaka hilaza ny nofy aminay mpanompony, dia hambaranay ny heviny.
They have answered a second time, and are saying, “Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we show the interpretation.”
8 Fa ny mpanjaka namaly ka nanao hoe: Fantatro marimarina fa mandany andro foana ianareo, satria hitanareo fa efa niloa-bava aho.
The king has answered and said, “Of a truth I know that you are gaining time, because that you have seen that the thing is gone from me,
9 Fa raha tsy hampahafantarinareo ahy ny nofy, dia lalàna iray monja no hitondrana anareo; fa ianareo miray tetika hilaza teny lainga sy arirarira foana eto anatrehako mandra-pahatongan’ izay andro mahamety; koa ambarao ahy ny nofy, dia ho fantatro fa mahalaza ny heviny amiko koa ianareo.
[so] that, if you do not cause me to know the dream—one is your sentence, seeing a lying and corrupt word you have prepared to speak before me, until the time is changed, therefore tell the dream to me, then I know that you show me its interpretation.”
10 Ny Kaldeana namaly teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Tsy misy olona etỳ ambonin’ ny tany mahay milaza izany nofin’ ny mpanjaka izany; fa tsy mbola nisy mpanjaka, na dia izay lehibe sy mahery aza, nila zavatra toy izany tamin’ ny ombiasy sy ny mpisikidy ary ny Kaldeana.
The Chaldeans have answered before the king, and are saying, “There is not a man on the earth who is able to show the king’s matter; therefore, no king, chief, and ruler, has asked such a thing as this of any scribe, and enchanter, and Chaldean;
11 Ary sarotra ny zavatra anontanian’ ny mpanjaka, ka tsy misy mahay milaza izany eo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka afa-tsy ireo andriamanitra, izay tsy manam-ponenana amin’ ny nofo.
and the thing that the king is asking [is] precious, and there are no others that show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.”
12 Dia vinitra sady tezitra indrindra ny mpanjaka noho izany, ka nasainy naringana ny olon-kendrin’ i Babylona rehetra.
Therefore the king has been furious and very angry, and has said to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
13 Ary navoaka ny didy nampamono ny olon-kendry; ary Daniela sy ny namany koa mba notadiaviny hovonoina.
And the sentence has gone forth, and the wise men are being slain, and they have sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.
14 Dia novalian’ i Daniela tamin’ ny fanahy sy ny fahendrena Arioka lehiben’ ny mpiambina ny mpanjaka, izay nivoaka hamono ny olon-kendrin’ i Babylona;
Then Daniel has replied [with] counsel and discretion to Arioch chief of the executioners of the king, who has gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon.
15 eny, namaly izy ka nanao tamin’ i Arioka, lehibe voatendrin’ ny mpanjaka, hoe: Nahoana no dia mafy toy izany ny teny avy amin’ ny mpanjaka? Dia nambaran’ i Arioka tamin’ i Daniela ilay teny.
He has answered and said to Arioch the king’s captain, “Why [is] the sentence so urgent from before the king?” Then Arioch has made the thing known to Daniel,
16 Dia niditra Daniela ka nangataka tamin’ ny mpanjaka hanome andro azy, dia holazainy amin’ ny mpanjaka ny hevitry ny nofy.
and Daniel has gone up, and sought of the king that he would give him time to show the interpretation to the king.
17 Ary Daniela nody tany an-tranony ka nanambara ilay teny tamin’ i Hanania sy Misaela ary Azaria namany,
Then Daniel has gone to his house, and to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, he has made the thing known,
18 mba hangatahan’ ireo famindram-po amin’ Andriamanitry ny lanitra ny amin’ izany zava-miafina izany, mba tsy haringana Daniela sy ny namany mbamin’ ny olon-kendrin’ i Babylona rehetra.
and to seek mercies from before the God of the heavens concerning this secret, that they do not destroy Daniel and his companions with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
19 Dia naseho an’ i Daniela tamin’ ny fahitana amin’ ny alina izany zava-miafina izany, ka dia nisaotra an’ Andriamanitry ny lanitra Daniela.
Then to Daniel, in a vision of the night, the secret has been revealed. Then Daniel has blessed the God of the heavens.
20 Eny, niteny izy ka nanao hoe: Isaorana anie ny anaran’ Andriamanitra mandrakizay mandrakizay, fa Azy ny fahendrena sy ny hery.
Daniel has answered and said, “Let the Name of God be blessed from age even to age, for wisdom and might—for they are His.
21 Ary Izy no mandahatra ny andro sy ny fotoana; Izy no manaisotra mpanjaka sy manangana mpanjaka; Izy no manome fahendrena ho an’ ny hendry sy fahalalana ho an’ izay mazava saina.
And He is changing times and seasons, He is causing kings to pass away, and He is raising up kings; He is giving wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those possessing understanding.
22 Izy no mampiseho ny zavatra lalina sy miafina; Izy no mahalala izay ao amin’ ny maizina, ary ny mazava mitoetra ao aminy.
He is revealing deep and hidden things; He has known what [is] in darkness, and light has dwelt with Him.
23 Hianao, ry Andriamanitry ny razako ô, no deraiko sy isaorako, satria nomenao fahendrena sy hery aho, ary ankehitriny efa nampahafantarinao ahy izay nangatahinay taminao; fa nampahafantarinao anay ilay nofin’ i ny mpanjaka.
You, O God of my fathers, I am thanking and praising, for wisdom and might You have given to me; and now, You have caused me to know that which we have sought from You, for the king’s matter You have caused us to know.”
24 Ary noho izany Daniela dia niditra nankao amin’ i Arioka, izay notendren’ ny mpanjaka handringana ny olon-kendrin’ i Babylona, eny, nandeha izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Aza mandringana ny olon-kendrin’ i Babylona; fa ento ho eo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka aho, dia hambarako aminy ny hevitry ny nofiny.
Therefore Daniel has gone up to Arioch, whom the king has appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he has gone, and thus has said to him, “You do not destroy the wise men of Babylon, bring me up before the king, and I show the interpretation to the king.”
25 Dia nentin’ i Arioka faingana ho eo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka Daniela, ka hoy izy taminy: Nahita lehilahy isan’ ny babo avy any Joda aho, izay hilaza amin’ ny mpanjaka ny hevitry ny nofy.
Then Arioch in haste has brought up Daniel before the king, and thus has said to him, “I have found a man of the sons of the expulsion of Judah, who makes known the interpretation to the king.”
26 Ny mpanjaka namaly ka nilaza tamin’ i Daniela, izay atao hoe koa Beltesazara, hoe: Moa mahay manambara amiko ny nofy izay hitako mbamin’ ny heviny va ianao?
The king has answered and said to Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar, “Are you able to cause me to know the dream that I have seen, and its interpretation?”
27 Dia namaly teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka Daniela nanao hoe: Ilay zava-miafina nanontanian’ ny mpanjaka dia tsy hain’ ny olon-kendry, na ny mpisikidy, na ny ombiasy, na ny mpanandro, nolazaina tamin’ ny mpanjaka;
Daniel has answered before the king and said, “The secret that the king is asking, the wise men, the enchanters, the scribes, the soothsayers, are not able to show to the king;
28 kanefa misy Andriamanitra any an-danitra, Izay mampiseho zava-miafina ka mampahafantatra an’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka izay ho tonga any am-parany. Ny nofinao sy ny fahitan’ ny lohanao teo amin’ ny farafaranao dia izao:
but there is a God in the heavens, a revealer of secrets, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar that which [is] to be in the latter end of the days. Your dream and the visions of your head on your bed are these:
29 Ny aminao, ry mpanjaka ô, raha nandry ianao, dia tonga ny eritreritrao ny amin’ izay ho avy rahatrizay; ary Izay mampiseho zava-miafina dia mampahafantatra anao izay ho avy.
You, O king, your thoughts on your bed have come up [concerning] that which [is] to be after this, and the Revealer of secrets has caused you to know that which [is] to be.
30 Ary izaho aza, dia tsy noho ny fahendrena ananako mihoatra noho ny olombelona rehetra tsy akory no nampisehoana tamiko ny zava-miafina, fa ny mba hampahafantarana ny mpanjaka ilay hevitra, ka hahafantaranao ny eritreritry ny fonao.
As for me—not for [any] wisdom that is in me above any living has this secret been revealed to me; but for the intent that the interpretation to the king they make known, and the thoughts of your heart you know.
31 Hianao, ry mpanjaka ô, nahita fa, indro, nisy sariolona lehibe anankiray. Izany sary izany dia lehibe sady namirapiratra tsara, nijoro teo anatrehanao izy, ary ny tarehiny dia nahatahotra.
You, O king, were looking, and behold, a certain great image. This image [is] mighty, and its brightness excellent; it is standing before you, and its appearance [is] terrible.
32 Ny lohan’ izany sary izany dia volamena tsara, ny tratrany sy ny sandriny dia volafotsy, ny kibony sy ny feny dia varahina,
This image! Its head [is] of fine gold, its breasts and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze;
33 ny ranjony dia vy, ary ny tongony dia vy sy tanimanga.
its legs of iron, its feet, part of them of iron, and part of them of clay.
34 Nijery ianao ambara-pahanisy vato voaendaka, nefa tsy nendahan-tanana, ary namely ilay sary teo amin’ ny tongony vy sy tanimanga iny ka nahatorotoro azy.
You were looking until a stone has been cut out without hands, and it has struck the image on its feet, that [are] of iron and of clay, and it has broken them small;
35 Dia niara-torotoro ny vy sy ny tanimanga sy ny varahina sy ny volafotsy ary ny volamena ka tonga toy ny akofa eo am-pamoloana fahavaratra; ary nopaohin’ ny rivotra izy, ka tsy nisy hitoerany, ary ilay vato namely ny sary dia tonga tendrombohitra lehibe nahafeno ny tany rehetra.
then broken small together have been the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold, and they have been as chaff from the summer threshing-floor, and the wind has carried them away, and no place has been found for them: and the stone that struck the image has become a great mountain, and has filled all the land.
36 Izany no nofy, ary holazainay eto anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka koa ny heviny.
This [is] the dream, and its interpretation we tell before the king.
37 Hianao, ry mpanjaka ô, izay mpanjakan’ ny mpanjaka sady nomen’ Andriamanitry ny lanitra fanjakana sy hery sy fahaleovana ary voninahitra,
You, O king, are a king of kings, for the God of the heavens a kingdom, strength, and might, and glory, has given to you;
38 ka ny zanak’ olombelona sy ny bibi-dia ary ny voro-manidina, na aiza na aiza itoerany, dia nomeny ho eo an-tananao, ary nataony ho mpanjakan’ izy rehetra ianao, dia ianao izany loha volamena izany.
and wherever sons of men are dwelling, the beast of the field, and the bird of the heavens, He has given into your hand, and has caused you to rule over them all; you [are] this head of gold.
39 Ary manarakaraka anao dia hisy fanjakana hafa hitsangana ambany noho ny anao, ary hisy fanjakana fahatelo koa izay varahina sady hanam-pahefana amin’ ny tany rehetra.
And after you another kingdom arises lower than those, and another third kingdom of bronze, that rules over all the earth.
40 Ary ny fanjakana fahefatra dia ho mafy toy ny vy; fa toy ny vy manorotoro sy mahamongomongo ny zavatra rehetra, ary toy ny famakivakin’ ny vy ireo rehetra ireo, dia toy izany no amakivakiany sy anorotoroany azy.
And the fourth kingdom is strong as iron, because that iron is breaking small, and making feeble, all [things], even as iron that is breaking all these, it beats small and breaks.
41 Ary satria hitanao ny tongotra sy ny rantsan-tongotra, fa ny tapany tanimangan’ ny mpanefy tanimanga, ary ny tapany vy dia ho fanjakana mizarazara izy; nefa hisy herim-by ao aminy, satria nahita vy miharo tanimanga mbola fotaka ianao.
As for that which you have seen: the feet and toes, part of them potter’s clay, and part of them iron, the kingdom is divided: and some of the standing of the iron [is] to be in it, because that you have seen the iron mixed with miry clay.
42 Ary toy ny rantsan-tongotra, ny tapany vy, ny tapany tanimanga, dia ho toy izany ny fanjakana, ny tapany ho mafy, ary ny tapany ho malemy.
As for the toes of the feet, part of them iron, and part of them clay: some part of the kingdom is strong, and some part of it is brittle.
43 Ary toy ny nahitanao ny vy miharo tanimanga mbola fotaka, dia ho toy izany no hiharoany amin’ ny taranak’ olombelona; nefa tsy hitambatra izy, dia toy ny tsi-fetezan’ ny vy miharo amin’ ny tanimanga.
Because you have seen iron mixed with miry clay, they are mixing themselves with the seed of men: and they are not adhering with one another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
44 Ary amin’ ny andron’ ireo mpanjaka ireo Andriamanitry ny lanitra dia hanorina fanjakana izay tsy ho rava mandrakizay; ary izany fanjakana izany tsy havela ho an’ olon-kafa, fa ireo fanjakana rehetra ireo dia hotorotoroiny sy holevoniny, fa izy kosa hitoetra mandrakizay.
And in the days of these kings the God of the heavens raises up a kingdom that is not destroyed for all time, and its kingdom is not left to another people: it beats small and ends all these kingdoms, and it stands for all time.
45 Fa toy ilay nahitanao ny vato nendahana tamin’ ny tendrombohitra, nefa tsy nendahan-tanana, sy ny nanorotoroany ny vy sy ny varahina sy ny tanimanga sy ny volafotsy ary ny volamena, dia ampahafantarin’ Andriamanitra lehibe ny mpanjaka ny amin’ ny zavatra ho avy rahatrizay: marina ny nofy, ary tsy maintsy ho tò ny heviny.
Because that you have seen that out of the mountain a stone has been cut without hands, and it has beaten the iron small, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king that which [is] to be after this; and the dream [is] true, and its interpretation steadfast.”
46 Dia niankohoka Nebokadnezara mpanjaka ka nivavaka tamin’ i Daniela ary nampanatitra fanatitra sy hanitra ankasitrahana ho azy.
Then King Nebuchadnezzar has fallen on his face, and to Daniel he has done homage, and present, and sweet things, he has said to pour out to him.
47 Ny mpanjaka namaly an’ i Daniela ka nanao hoe: Marina tokoa fa Andriamanitrareo dia Andriamanitry ny andriamanitra sy Tompon’ ny mpanjaka ary Mampiseho zava-miafina, ka dia nahay nampiseho izany zava-miafina izany ianao.
The king has answered Daniel and said, “Of a truth [it is] that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you have been able to reveal this secret.”
48 Ary tamin’ izany ny mpanjaka dia nanandratra an’ i Daniela ho lehibe, ka nanome azy zavatra maro sady lehibe ary nanendry azy ho mpanapaka any Babylona sy ny fehiny rehetra, sy ho lehiben’ ny mpanapaka ny olon-kendrin’ i Babylona rehetra.
Then the king has made Daniel great, and many great gifts he has given to him, and has caused him to rule over all the province of Babylon, and chief of the prefects over all the wise men of Babylon.
49 Ary Daniela nangataka tamin’ ny mpanjaka, ary izy nanendry an’ i Sadraka sy Mesaka ary Abednego ho tonian’ ny raharahan’ i Babylona sy ny fehiny; ary Daniela dia teo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka.
And Daniel has sought from the king, and he has appointed over the work of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, and Daniel [is] in the gate of the king.
