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.
In the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamt 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 that the magicians, the enchanters, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans be called 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.
The king said to them, “I have dreamt 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 your 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 the Chaldeans, “The thing has gone from me. If you don’t make known to me the dream and its interpretation, you will be cut in pieces, and your houses will 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 you show the dream and its interpretation, you will receive from me gifts, rewards, and great honour. Therefore show me the dream and its interpretation.”
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, “I know of a certainty that you are trying to gain time, because you 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 you don’t make known to me the dream, there is but one law for you; for you have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, until the situation changes. Therefore tell me the dream, and I will know that you can show me its interpretation.”
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 the king and said, “There is not a man on the earth who can show the king’s matter, because no king, lord, or ruler has asked such a thing of any magician, 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.
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.
Because of this, the king was angry and very furious, and commanded that all the wise men of Babylon be destroyed.
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 out, and the wise men were to be slain. 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 had gone out 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 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.
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 would not 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 revealed 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, “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;
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 you and praise you, O God of my fathers, who have given me wisdom and might, and have now made known to me what we desired of you; for you 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 this to him: “Don’t 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 in Daniel before the king in haste, and said this to him: “I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Judah who will make known to the king the interpretation.”
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 Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, “Are you able to make known to me the dream which I have seen, and its interpretation?”
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 can’t be shown to the king by wise men, enchanters, magicians, or soothsayers;
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 King Nebuchadnezzar what will be in the latter days. Your dream and the visions of your head on your 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 you, O king, your thoughts came on your bed, what should happen hereafter; and he who reveals secrets has made known to you what will happen.
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, but to the intent that the interpretation may be made known to the king, and that you may know the thoughts of your 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.
“You, O king, saw, and behold, a great image. This image, which was mighty, and whose brightness was excellent, stood before you; and its appearance was terrifying.
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 chest and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze,
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.
You saw until a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on 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 bronze, the silver, and the gold were broken in pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors. The wind carried them away, so that no place was found for them. The stone that struck 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 its interpretation before the king.
37 Mpanjakam-panjaka irehe ry mpanjaka, amy te natolon’ Añaharen-dikerañe azo, ty fifeheañe, ty haozarañe, ty hafatrarañe, vaho ty engeñe.
You, O king, are king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, 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.
Wherever the children of men dwell, he has given the animals of the field and the birds of the sky into your hand, and has made you rule over them all. You 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.
“After you, another kingdom will arise that is inferior to you; and another third kingdom of bronze, which will 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.
The fourth kingdom will be strong as iron, because iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things; and as iron that crushes all these, it will 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.
Whereas you saw the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay and part of iron, it will be a divided kingdom; but there will be in it of the strength of the iron, because you 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.
As the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle.
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.
Whereas you saw the iron mixed with miry clay, they will mingle themselves with the seed of men; but they won’t cling to one 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.
“In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which will never be destroyed, nor will its sovereignty be left to another people; but it will break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it will 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.
Because you saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold, the great God has made known to the king what will happen hereafter. The dream is certain, and its interpretation 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 King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an offering and sweet odours 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 the Lord of kings, and a revealler of secrets, since you 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 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.
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 king’s gate.
