Daniela 6
1 Ni-no’ i Dariavese ty hañoriza’e mpifehe zato-tsy-roapolo amy fifeheañey hanitsifañe i fanjakàñey,
It pleased Daryavesh to set over the kingdom one hundred twenty satraps, who should be throughout the whole kingdom;
2 le ambone’ iereo ty mpifeleke telo—raik’ am’ iereo t’i Daniele—vaho mitalily am’ iereo i mpifehe rey, soa tsy ho tsoborèñe i mpanjakay.
and over them three administrators, of whom Daniel was one; that these satraps might give account to them, and that the king might not suffer loss.
3 T’i Daniele toy ty nisoheñe ambone’ ze hene mpifehe naho mpifeleke ty amy arofo tsitantane ama’ey; le sinafiri’ i mpanjakay te hanoe’e ambone’ i fifeheañey iaby.
Then this Daniel was distinguished above the administrators and the satraps, because an extraordinary spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
4 Aa le pinai’ o mpifelekeo naho o mpifeheo ty hampitsikapy i Daniele am-pitoloña’e amy fifeheañey, fe tsy nahatendreke ty hikiniàñe aze ndra ze lila’e ty amy figahiña’ey, vaho tsy naharendrehan-kila ndra tahiñe.
Then the administrators and the satraps sought to find a charge against Daniel regarding the kingdom; but they could find no charge or fault, because he was faithful. Neither was there any error or fault found in him.
5 Aa le hoe i ondaty rey, le lia’e tsy hahaonin-dilatse amy Daniele tia tika, naho tsy t’ie ho onin-tika amy lilin’ Añahare’ey avao.
Then these men said, "We will not find any charge against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God."
6 Aa le nihitrihitry mb’amy mpanjakay mb’eo i mpifehe naho mpifeleke rey nanao ty hoe ama’e: Ry Dariavese mpanjaka, lava havelo.
Then these administrators and satraps assembled together to the king, and said this to him, "King Daryavesh, live forever.
7 Songa mitrao-safiry o mpamele-pifeheañeo, o mpizakao, o mpifeheo, o beio, vaho o sefoo te honjoneñe ty tseim-panjakàñe hañatò te ze hihalaly aman-drahare ia’ ia ndra ama’ ondaty, naho tsy ama’o avao ampara’ te modo ty andro telopolo, ry mpanjaka, le havokovoko an-dakaton-diona ao.
All the administrators of the kingdom, the deputies and the satraps, the counselors and the governors, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a strong decree, that whoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except of you, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
8 Aa le iantofo i tsey zay henaneo, ry mpanjaka, vaho soniavo o sokitseo tsy hiova, ty amy lili’ i Maday naho i Parase tsy mete mihotikey.
Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be changed."
9 Le nanonia i sokitsey, hampijadoña’e ho lily, t’i Dariavese.
Therefore king Daryavesh signed the writing and the decree.
10 Aa ie nifohi’ i Daniele te nisoniaveñe i sokitsey le nizilik’ añ’ anjomba’e ao; toe nisokake mb’e Ierosalaime i lalan-kede am-batsey, le nitongaleke re in-telo boak’andro, niloloke vaho nañandriañe añatrefan’ Añahare’e eo amy t’ie lili’e.
When Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house (now his windows were open in his chamber toward Jerusalem) and he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did before.
11 Aa le nifanontone indaty rey naho naharendreke te niloloke vaho nihalaly aman’ Añahare’e t’i Daniele.
Then these men assembled together, and found Daniel making petition and petition before his God.
12 Niharinea’ iereo amy zao i mpanjakay le nitalily i tseim-panjakañey: Tsy vaho nañatò ty tsey hao ry mpanjaka, te ze hihalaly aman’ Añahare’ iaia ndra ama’ ondaty naho tsy ama’o avao añate’ ty andro telopolo ro havokovoko an-dakaton-diona ao? Hoe ty natoi’ i mpanjakay: To i hoe zay ty amy lili’ o nte-Maday naho nte-Parase tsy mihotikeo.
Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king's decree. "Haven't you signed a decree, that every man who shall make petition to any god or man within thirty days, except to you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?" The king answered, "The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be changed."
13 Aa le hoe ty natoi’ iareo añatrefa’ i mpanjakay, Tsy mañaoñe azo t’i Daniele, anam-pandrohiza’ o nte-Iehodào, ndra i tsey najado’oy, te mone mihalaly in-telo ami’ty andro.
Then they answered and said before the king, "That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, doesn't regard you, O king, nor the decree that you have signed, but makes his petition three times a day."
14 Ie nahajanjiñe i entañe zay i mpanjakay le loho navesatse ama’e naho napite’e amy Daniele ty arofo’e hañaha aze; vaho nifanehak’ ampara’ te tsofots’ andro hañafaha’e.
Then the king, when he heard these words, was very displeased, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him. And he labored until the going down of the sun to rescue him.
15 Fe niropak’ amy mpanjakay indaty rey, nanao ty hoe amy mpanjakay, Mahafohina, ry mpanjaka, inay ty lili’ Maday naho i Parase te tsy mete ovaeñe ze tsey ndra fañè najado’ i mpanjakay.
Then these men assembled together to the king, and said to the king, "Know, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians, that no decree nor statute which the king establishes may be changed."
16 Aa le nandily i mpanjakay, le nasese mb’eo t’i Daniele, vaho navokovoko an-dakaton-diona ao. Nanao ty hoe amy Daniele amy zao i mpanjakay: Handrombak’ azo abey t’i Andrianañahare toroñe’o nainai’e.
Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spoke and said to Daniel, "Your God whom you serve continually, he will deliver you."
17 Nendeseñe amy zao ty vato, le nikapefeñe ty vava’ i lakatoy; vaho vinoli-tombo’ i mpanjakay amy bange fitombo’ey naho ami’ty fitombo’ o roandria’eo soa tsy hovaeñe ty amy Daniele.
A stone was brought, and placed on the opening of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel.
18 Noly añ’ anjomba’e ao i mpanjakay, nandre tsy nikama; le tsy nañendesan-draha, vaho nihànkañe ama’e ty rotse.
Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were instruments of music brought before him. And his sleep fled from him.
19 Aa le nañaleñaleñe i mpanjakay nitroatse te nangararak’ atiñana vaho nihitrihitry mb’an-dakato’ o lionao mb’eo.
Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste to the den of lions.
20 Ie nandoak’ amy lakatoy eo, le nikoik’ an-kalonjeram-piarañanañañe amy Daniele, le hoe ty napaza’ i mpanjakay amy Daniele, ry Daniele mpitoron’ Andrianañahare veloñe, naharombak’ azo amo lionao hao t’i Andrianañahare fitoroña’o nainai’e?
When he came near to the den to Daniel, he cried with a lamentable voice. The king spoke and said to Daniel, "Daniel, servant of the living God. Is your God, whom you serve continually, able to deliver you from the lions?"
21 Le hoe t’i Daniele amy mpanjakay, lava ohatse, ry mpanjaka;
Then said Daniel to the king, "O king, live forever.
22 Nañirake ty anjeli’e t’i Andrianañahareko; nampitsiteke ty vava’ o lionao tsy hijoy ahy, amy t’ie nalio hakeo añatrefa’e, naho toe tsy nandilatse ama’o iraho ry mpanjaka.
My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me; because before him innocence was found in me; and also before you, O king, have I done no wrong."
23 Nivaranehak’ amy zao i mpanjakay naho linili’e te avotañe amy lakatoy t’i Daniele. Aa le nakareñe an-dakato ao t’i Daniele, vaho tsy nizoem-pere amy t’ie niato aman’ Añahare’e.
Then was the king exceedingly glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.
24 Linili’ i mpanjakay te hampiatrefeñe aze o nanisý i Danieleo. Le fonga navokovoko amy lakaton-dionay naho o vali’eo rekets’ o ana’eo. Ie mbe tsy niponak’ an-tane’ i lakatoy iereo le fa niambotraha’ o lionao vaho pinekapekañ’ iaby o taola’eo.
The king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions overpowered them, and broke all their bones in pieces, before they came to the bottom of the den.
25 Nanokitse amo hene ondaty naho fifeheañe vaho fameleke mpimoneñe amy taneio t’i Dariavese Mpanjaka: Ampitomboeñe ama’ areo ty fañanintsiñe.
Then king Daryavesh wrote to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who dwell in all the earth: "Peace be multiplied to you.
26 Izaho ro mitsey aman’ ndra aia’aia amo fonga fifelehañe am-pifeheakoo: asoao te hinevenevetse am-pañeveñañe añatrefan’ Añahare’ i Daniele ondatio, Ie t’i Andrianañahare veloñe nainai’e le tsim-bia ho rebake i fifehea’ey naho i fifeleha’ey nainai’e donia.
I make a decree, that in all the dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God, and steadfast forever. His kingdom shall not be destroyed; and his dominion shall be to the end.
27 Mpandrombake re, Mpañaha, naho Mpanao viloñe tsitantane vaho mitoloñe raha mahalatsa andikerañe ao naho an-tane atoy. Ie ty nandrombake i Daniele ami’ty haozara’ o lionao.
He delivers and rescues, and he works signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions."
28 Nitahieñe t’i Daniele am-pifeleha’ i Dariavesey naho am-pifehea’ i Korese nte-Parase.
So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Daryavesh, and in the reign of Koresh the Persian.
