< Daniela 2 >
1 Ie tan-taom-paharoe’ ty fifehea’ i Nebokadnetsare, le nañinofy t’i Nebokadnetsare, naho nembereñe ty arofo’e vaho nibioñe ty firota’e.
And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams. And his spirit was troubled, and his sleep went from him.
2 Aa le linili’ i mpanjakay te songa koiheñe o ambiasao naho o mpañorik’ androo vaho o nte-Kasdio, hanoro o nofi’eo amy mpanjakay. Aa ie nimbeo nijohañe añatrefa’ i mpanjakay eo,
Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the enchanters, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, to tell the king his dreams. So they came in and stood before the king.
3 le hoe i mpanjakay am’ iereo: Nañinofy iraho, vaho angareñe ty troko haharendreke i nofiy.
And the king said to them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.
4 Aa le nisaontsy amy mpanjakay o nte-Kasdio an-tsaontsi’ Arame ty hoe: Ry mpanjaka, lava-ohatse; taroño amo mpitoro’oo i nofiy vaho hirazaña’ay.
Then the Chaldeans spoke to the king in the Syrian language, O king, live forever. Tell thy servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.
5 Tinoi’ i mpanjakay amo nte-Kasdio ty hoe: Fa mijadoñe ty nisafiriako, naho tsy ampahafohineñ’ ahy i nofiy naho ty fandrazañaña’e, le ho tseratseraheñe nahareo vaho hanoeñe votren-deotse o akiba’ areoo.
The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me. If ye do not make the dream and the interpretation of it known to me, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill.
6 F’ie atoro’ areo i nofiy naho i fandrazaña’ey le handrambe tambe naho ravoravo naho asiñe ra’elahy amako; aa le atorò i nofiy naho i fandrazaña’ey.
But if ye show the dream and the interpretation of it, ye shall receive gifts and rewards and great honor from me. Therefore show the dream and the interpretation of it to me.
7 Nanoiñe fañindroe’e iereo, ami’ty hoe: Ehe te hataro’ i mpanjakay amo mpitoro’eo i nofiy, vaho ho razañe’ay.
They answered the second time and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.
8 Nanoiñe ty hoe amy zao i mpanjakay: Apotako an-katò t’ie manao jomà-lava, fa oni’ areo te nihelañe amy tiahikoy.
The king answered and said, I know of a certainty that ye would gain time, because ye see the thing has gone from me.
9 Aa naho tsy ampahafohineñe ahy i nofiy, le raik’ avao ty hizakàñe anahareo, amy te vata’e mañentseñe lañitse naho talily mengoke ho lañonà’ areo amako, hañovàñe i rahay; aa le taroño amako i nofiy handrendrehako hera ho razañe’ areo.
But if ye do not make known to me the dream, there is but one law for you, for ye have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me till the time is changed. Therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that ye can show me the interpretation of it.
10 Le tinoi’ o nte-Kasdio amy mpanjakay, ty hoe, Leo raik’ am’ ondati’ ty tane toio tsy hahafiboak’ i raha’ i mpanjakaiy ama'e, fa mbe lia’e tsy nañontaneam-panjaka ami’ ty ambiasa ndra mpañandro ndra nte-Kasdy ndra roandria ndra mpifeleke ty manahake izay.
The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth who can show the king's matter. Inasmuch as no king, lord, or ruler, has asked such a thing of any magician or enchanter or Chaldean.
11 Toe raha tsitantane ty paia’ i mpanjakay, vaho tsy eo ty mahafanoro aze amy mpanjakay naho tsy o anjelio, ie tsy mitrao-pimoneñe ami’ty nofotse.
And it is a rare thing that the king requires, and there is no other who can show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
12 Niviñetse amy zao i mpanjakay le niforoforo vaho linili’e te ho fonga mongoreñe ze ondaty mahihitse e Bavele ao.
For this reason the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
13 Naboele i tsey zay naho ho navetrake ondaty mahilalao, vaho pinai’ iareo ka t’i Daniele naho o mpiama’eo havetrake.
So the decree went forth, and the wise men were to be slain. And they sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.
14 Nañàvohavo an-kihitse amy Arioke mpifehem-pigarim-panjakay t’i Daniele, ie fa nionjoñe hanjamañe ondaty mahilala’ i Baveleo;
Then Daniel returned answer with counsel and prudence to Arioch, the captain of the king's guard, who went forth to kill the wise men of Babylon.
15 nisaontsie’e ty hoe amy Arioke mpifele’ i mpanjakay: Akore hao te taentaeñe i lili’ tsinei’ i mpanjakay? Aa le nampahafohine’ i Arioke t’i Daniele.
He answered and said to Arioch the king's captain, Why is the decree so urgent from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.
16 Nimoak’ ao amy zao t’i Daniele, nihalaly amy mpanjakay hanolora’e andro handrazaña’e amy mpanjakay.
And Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would appoint him a time, and he would show the king the interpretation.
17 Nimb’añ’ akiba’e mb’eo amy zao t’i Daniele, nampahafohiñe i mpiama’e rey: i Kanania naho i Misaele vaho i Azarià,
Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions,
18 hihalalia’ iareo fiferenaiñañe amy Andrianañaharen-dikerañey ty amy raha mietakey, soa tsy ho fonga mongoreñe miharo am’ ondaty mahilala ila’e e Baveleo t’i Daniele naho i mpiama’e rey.
that they would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning this secret, that Daniel and his companions should nor perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
19 Naboak’ amy Daniele añ’ aroñaron-kaleñe i nietakey vaho nandriañe’e t’i Andrianañaharen-dikerañe.
Then the secret was shown to Daniel in a vision of the night. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
20 Hoe t’i Daniele: Andriañeñe nainai’e donia ty tahinan’Añahare, fa Aze ty hihitse naho haozarañe;
Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and might are his.
21 Ie ty minday fañovan’andro naho sà: manitake mpifehe naho mampijadoñe mpifeleke; toroa’e hihitse ty mahihitse naho hilala o mahilalao;
And he changes the times and the seasons. He removes kings, and sets up kings. He gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those who have understanding.
22 aboa’e ty miheotse naho ty mietake; arofoana’e o añ’ieñeo, vaho imoneñan-kazavàñe.
He reveals the deep and secret things. He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.
23 Ihe ry Andrianañaharen-droaeko, ty isolohoako naho anolorako engeñe amy te tinolo’o hihitse naho haozarañe, le nitoroa’o henaneo i nihalalia’ay, ami’ty naboa’o ama’ay ty enta’ i mpanjakay.
I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who has given me wisdom and might, and has now made known to me what we desired of thee, for thou have made known to us the king's matter.
24 Ie amy zao, nimb’amy Arioke, i nafanto’ i mpanjakay hamono o mahihitse e Baveleoy mb’eo t’i Daniele nanao ty hoe: Ko zamaneñe o mahihi’ i Baveleo; aseseo amy mpanjakay iraho, hanoroako aze i fandrazañañey.
Therefore Daniel went in to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon. He went and said thus to him: Do not destroy the wise men of Babylon. Bring me in before the king, and I will show to the king the interpretation.
25 Aa le nendese’ i Arioke mb’añatrefa’ i mpanjakay mb’eo amy zao t’i Daniele le nanoa’e ty hoe: fa nahatrea ondaty amo mpirohi’ Iehodào iraho ze hampahafohiñe i mpanjakay i fandrazañañey.
Then Arioch brought Daniel in before the king in haste, and said thus to him: I have found a man of the sons of the captivity of Judah, who will make known the interpretation to the king.
26 Tinoi’ i mpanjakay ty hoe amy Daniele natao Beltesatsarey: Ihe hao ty hahafandrendrek’ ahy i nofy nitreakoy naho i fandrazaña’ey?
The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Are thou able to make known to me the dream which I have seen, and the interpretation of it?
27 Nanoiñe ty hoe aolo’ i mpanjakay t’i Daniel, Ty ipaia’ i mpanjakaiy, le tsy mahafiboak’ aze amy mpanjakay ty mahihitse ndra mpañandro ndra ambiasa ndra mpitoky;
Daniel answered before the king, and said, The secret which the king has demanded, neither wise men, enchanters, magicians, nor soothsayers, can show to the king,
28 fe andikerañe ao t’i Andrianañahare mpampiborake raha tsitantane; ie ty nampiboak’ amy Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka o raha hifetsak’ amo andro honka’eoo. Zao ty nofi’o, naho o aroñaron’ añambone’oo t’ie tam-pandreañe ao:
but there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets. And he has made known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these:
29 Ihe ry mpanjaka, an-tihi’o eo te nonjoneñe o ereñere’oo haharendreke ze hifetsak’ amy añey, vaho nampibentatse o hifetsakeo i Mpampiborake o tsikentañeo.
As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter. And he who reveals secrets has made known to thee what shall come to pass.
30 Aa naho amako, tsy ho nahaborake i mietakey amy ze hihitse mete ho amako mandikoatse ze amo veloñe iabio, fe hatoroko amy mpanjakay i fandrazañañey hahafohina’o o ereñeren’ arofo’oo.
But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living man, but to the intent that the interpretation may be made known to the king, and that thou may know the thoughts of thy heart.
31 Nahatrea saren-draha jabajaba irehe, ry mpanjaka. Toe ra’elahy ty habei’ i sarey vaho losotse ty fireandrea’e, ie nijohañe añ’atrefa’o eo, mbore nampañeveñe i sandri’ey.
Thou, O king, saw, and, behold, a great image. This image, which was mighty, and whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee, and the appearance of it was fearful.
32 Volamena ki’e ty loha’ i sarey, volafoty ty tratra’e naho o sira’eo; torisìke ty tro’e naho o tòha’eo;
As for this image, its head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass,
33 viñe o kitso’eo vaho nizara o tombo’eo, ty ila’e viñe naho tane lietse ty ila’e.
its legs of iron, its feet part of iron, and part of clay.
34 Nisambae’o le nihatsafeñe tsy am-pitàñe ty vato namofoke o tomboke viñe naho lietseo, nampidemoke iareo.
Thou looked until a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon its feet that were of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces.
35 Le nivolentsa amy zao i viñey, i lietsey, i torisìkey, i volafotiy, vaho i volamenay; manahake o kafo’e an-tane-panongañ’ asarao; nasio’ i tiokey mb’eo, le ndra loli’e tsy nitendreke ka. Le nitombo ho vohitse mitiotiotse nahalifotse ty voatse toy i vato nidoiñe amy rahaiy.
Then the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, was broken in pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors. And the wind carried them away, so that no place was found for them. And the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
36 Izay i nofiy, le ho taroñe’ay ama’o i fandrazaña’ey.
This is the dream, and we will tell the interpretation of it before the king.
37 Mpanjakam-panjaka irehe ry mpanjaka, amy te natolon’ Añaharen-dikerañe azo, ty fifeheañe, ty haozarañe, ty hafatrarañe, vaho ty engeñe.
Thou, O king, are a king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the glory.
38 Le natolo’e am-pità’o ze hene fimoneña’ o ana’ondatio, o biby an-kivokeo, naho o voron-dikerañeo; vaho hene nampifehe’e azo. Ihe i añambone volamenay.
And wherever the sons of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens, he has given into thy hand, and has made thee to rule over them all. Thou are the head of gold.
39 Manonjohy azo, le hitroatse ka ty fifeheañe ambane’ ty azo, vaho hañorike izay ty fifeheañe fahatelo, hifeleke i hene taney i fifeheañe torisìkey.
And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
40 Haozarañe manahak’ o viñeo ty fifeheañe fah’efatse; naho hambañe ami’ty viñe mampidemoke naho mamofoke i he’e rezay, ty hampidemoha’e naho ty hamofoha’e.
And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron, inasmuch as iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things. And as iron that crushes all these, it shall break in pieces and crush.
41 Le i nahaoniña’o o tomboke naho rambo’eoy, ty ila’e ni-liem-panao valàñe tane, ty ila’e viñe, le hizarazara i fifeheañey, fe ho ama’e ty haozara’ i viñey, ie nioni’o te nifangaro amy liem-panao valàñe-taney ty viñe.
And whereas thou saw the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom. But there shall be of the strength of the iron in it, inasmuch as thou saw the iron mixed with miry clay.
42 Le manahake te nizara ho viñe ty ila’ o rambo-tombo’eo naho lietse ty ila’e, le haozatse ty ampaha’ i fifeheañey vaho harantsañe ty ila’e.
And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
43 Aa i nioni’oy, i viñe nitraoke lietsey: Hifangaro añamo tiri’ ondatio iereo, fe tsy hifampipiteke, manahake ty tsy iharoa’ ty viñe naho ty lietse.
And whereas thou saw the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men, but they shall not cling one to another, even as iron does not mix with clay.
44 Ie añ’andro i mpanjaka rey, le hampitroatse fifeheañe tsy ho mengoke nainai’e t’i Andrianañaharen-dikerañe, le tsy ho limbezam-pifokoa’ ondaty i fifeheañe zay, fe fonga ho demohe’e naho habotse’e o fifeheañeo, vaho ie ty hijadoñe nainai’e.
And in the days of those kings the God of heaven shall set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, nor shall the sovereignty of it be left to another people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.
45 Le ami’ty nahaoniña’o te hinatsake tsy am-pitàñe amy vohitsey ty vato nandemoke i viñey naho i torisìkey naho i lietsey naho i volafotiy vaho i volamenay; ie ty nampiboahan’ Añahare ra’èlahiy amy mpanjakay ty hifetsak’ amy ze añe. Toe to i nofiy, naho vantañe i fandrazaña’ey.
Inasmuch as thou saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold, the great God has made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter. And the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
46 Aa le nihotrake naho nibabok’ an-dahara’e naho nire-batañe añ’atrefa’ i Daniele eo t’i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka vaho linili’e t’ie hisoroñañe naho hañembohañe.
Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell upon his face, and worshiped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odors to him.
47 Nanao ty hoe amy Daniele i mpanjakay; Toe Andrianañaharen’ drahare t’i Andrianañahare vaho Talèm-panjaka naho Mpampiborake raha mietake t’i Andrianañahare’o, kanao nabenta’e ama’o i raha mietakey.
The king answered to Daniel, and said, Of a truth your God is the God of gods, and Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since thou have been able to reveal this secret.
48 Aa le nonjone’ i mpanjakay t’i Daniele naho nitolora’e ravoravo fanjaka maro vaho nanoe’e mpifehe’ i hene faritane’ i Baveley naho mpifeleke o fonga mpifehe’ o mahihi’ i Baveleoo.
Then the king made Daniel great, and gave him many great gifts, and made him to rule over the whole province of Babylon, and to be chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.
49 Nihalaly amy mpanjakay t’i Daniele, vaho najado’e ho mpamandroñe o raham-paritane’ i Baveleo t’i Sadrake naho i Mesake vaho i Abednegò; le tan-dalambei’ i mpanjakay t’i Daniele.
And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon, but Daniel was in the gate of the king.
