10 Ukhuphile isimemezelo, wena nkosi, wathi wonke okuzwayo ukukhala kophondo, lomfece, lomhlanga, lomhubhe, lechacho lezindweba kanye lazozonke iziginci ezikhaliswayo kathi mbo phansi akhonze isithombe segolide,
Nangman mijouse chung’a thupeh gahtah nabolin, koi hijong leh saki kimut gin, theile gin, semjang gin, khong leh dah gin, chuleh tumging thei dang dang ho gin, ajah tenguleh, natundoh sana milim chu bohkhup’a chibai aboh cheh ding nati.

12 Kodwa bakhona abanye amaJuda obabeke ukuphatha ilizwe laseBhabhiloni, uShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko, abangakhathali lutho ngawe, wena nkosi. Kababakhonzi onkulunkulu bakho njalo kabasikhonzi isithombe lesi osimisileyo.”
Ahivangin, Jews mi phabep Shadrach, Meshachchuleh Abednego, nangman Babylon gamkai ho mopo’a napansah ho chun, Vo lengpa nang thupeh chu ngaisah in aneipouve. Amahon milim natundoh chu bokhup’a chibai boh ding ada uvin, chuleh nangma pathen houna kinbol ding anom pouve,” atiuvin ahi.
13 Wazonda wadla inja uNebhukhadineza, wasebiza oShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko. Yikho amadoda la alethwa phambi kwenkosi,
Chuin Nebuchadnezzar jong alung hang behseh jengin, Shadrach, Meshach chuleh Abednego chu, a-ang sung’a ahin kailut diuvin thupeh aneitai. Chuin amaho chu lengpa angsung’a chun ahin kailut tauve.
14 uNebhukhadineza wathi kubo, “Kuliqiniso yini, Shadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko, ukuthi kalibakhonzi onkulunkulu bami njalo kalisikhonzi isithombe segolide engisimisileyo?
Hichun Nebuchadnezzar lengpan ajah’uva,” Shadrach, Meshach chule Abednego, nanghon kei pathen ho houna-kin bol ding adauvin chuleh katundoh sana-milim jong chibai abohpouve, kitihi adih ham?
15 Manje nxa lingezwa ukukhala kophondo, lomfece, lomhlanga, lomhubhe, lechacho, lezindweba layo yonke imihlobo yezikhaliswayo, nxa selizimisele ukuthi mbo phansi lisikhonze isifanekiso engasenzayo, kulungile. Kodwa nxa lingasikhonzi lizaphoselwa ngokuphangisa esithandweni somlilo ovuthayo. Pho nguphi unkulunkulu ozalilamulela esandleni sami na?”
Keiman nangho avel’a khatvei kateppeh nahiuvve, saki kimut gin, theile gin, semjang gin, khong leh dah gin, chuleh tumgingthei dang dang ho gin, najah phat’u leh katundoh milim hi bohkhop’a chibai naboh cheh diu ahi. Amavang hichea jong nada teitei uleh, apettah’a meilhum deujeju sung’a nakiseplut ding’u ahitai. Chutah leh, kei khut’a kon’a itobang pathenin nahuh doh diuham?” atitai.
16 OShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko bayiphendula inkosi bathi, “Nkosi Nebhukhadineza, kasidingi kuzilwela phambi kwakho ngale indaba.
Shadrach, Meshach chule Abednego chun lengpa adonbut’un,”Vo Nebuchadnezzar, keihon nangma angsung’a kihonna thu ka seiju angai khohpoi.
17 Singaphoselwa esithandweni somlilo olavuzayo, uNkulunkulu esimkhonzayo ulamandla okusisindisa kuwo, njalo uzasilamulela esandleni sakho, wena nkosi.
Meilhum deujeju sung’a nei seplut’ujongleh chun, keihon kahouvu akin-na katoh peh’u, ka Pathen’u chun eihuhdohdiu ahi. Vo! lengpa, nangma khut a kon chun hiche ka Pathenu chun eihuhdoh nauvinte.
18 Loba engasisindisi, sithanda ukuba ukwazi, wena nkosi, ukuthi sivele kasisoze sibakhonze onkulunkulu bakho kumbe sisidumise isifanekiso segolide leso osimisileyo.”
Amavang hichea hin eihuhdoh hih beh’ujongleh, kicheh tahin neihetpeh’un, keihon itihchan hijong leh na-pathen ho chu kahou louheldiu chuleh natundoh sana-milim jong chibai kaboh louheldiu ahi,” atiuve.
19 Lapho-ke uNebhukhadineza waphuphuma ngolaka kuShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko, wahle waguqula indlela aye esebaphatha ngayo. Walaya ukuthi isithando somlilo sibaselwe sitshise okuphindwe kasikhombisa kulenjayelo
Nebuchadnezzar chu, Shadrach, Meshach chuleh Abednego chung’a alunghang vang jeng tan, amaiso melse leuvin alunghang doh tai. Hijeh chun, aman jong meilhum koujeju chu asat-ngaina sang’a sagiveijen asatbe sahdiuvin thu apetai.
20 waphinda walaya ukuthi abanye bamabutho angobambapheqe bempi yakhe bababophe oShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko babaphosele esithandweni somlilo olavuzayo.
Chu in lengpan sepai thahat cheh phabep asolin, Shadrach, Meshach chuleh Abednego chu akan’uva meilhum sung’a aselut diuvin thupeh anei tai.
21 Yikho amadoda la abotshwa elokhu egqoke amajazi awo, lamabhulugwe, amaqhiye kanye lezinye izigqoko zawo, aphoselwa esithandweni somlilo ovuthayo.
Hijeh chun, sepai hon amaho chu akivonnau jouse, ponsil chol, sangkhol, lukop, chu leh adang jouse pumin akan’un, meilhum deujeju sung’a chun ase lut tauve.
22 Umlayo wenkosi wawuthukuthele kakhulu lesithando somlilo sitshisa okokuthi amalangabi omlilo awabulala amanxusa ayefuqela oShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko,
Lengpa alunghang val jeh’a, meilhum halbe ding’a thupeh anei tahjeh chun, meilhum chu asaval behseh jeng tan, Shadrach, Meshach chuleh Abednego gaseplut’a pang sepaiho chu meikong chun ahallih gam tauvin ahi.
23 kwathi amadoda la womathathu ayebotshwe nko awela phakathi kwesithando somlilo olavuzayo.
Hitichun, Shadrach, Meshach Chuleh Abednego chu, akikannau pumin meilhum deujeju sung’a chun alhalutjel tauve.
24 Khonapho inkosi uNebhukhadineza wathi lothu ngokumangala, wabuza abacebisi bakhe wathi, “Kanti angithi abemathathu amadoda esiwabophileyo sawaphosela emlilweni na?” Baphendula bathi, “Liqiniso lelo, Oh nkosi.”
Chupettah chun phulou helouvin, Nebuchadnezzar chu tija henhunin ahung ding doh jengin, ama thumop’a pangho jah’a chun,” Mithum ho chu kikan’a meilhum sung’a kiseplut hilou ham?” ati. Amahon adonbut un, “Vo lengpa, kikan ahinai” atiuve.
25 Wathi, “Khangelani! Ngibona amadoda amane ehambahamba phakathi komlilo, engabotshwanga njalo engalinyazwanga lutho, njalo owesine lowo ukhangeleka njengendodana yabonkulunkulu.”
Hichun Nebuchadnezzar a-eojah in,” Ahileh meilhum sung’a mili tah kilhamsa-a kijot lele, meikong in jong akahlou kamu khu veta’u, Chuleh alina mipa khu Pathen toh abang’e” ati.
26 UNebhukhadineza wasesondela emlonyeni wesithando somlilo olavuzayo wamemeza wathi, “Shadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko, zinceku zikaNkulunkulu oPhezukonke, phumani! Wozani lapha!” Ngakho oShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko baphuma emlilweni,
Chuphat in Nebuchadnezzar jong meilhum kongjeju kihalna kot phung ahin naijin, Vo Shadrach, Mesach chuleh Abednego, hungpot doh jeng’un, hikom’a hung loijun, tin aga kou tai. Hichun Shadrach, Mesach chuleh Abednego meilhum sung’a kon’in ahung pot doh tauve.
27 kwathi ababusi bezigaba, labalisa, lababusi bemikhono yelizwe labeluleki besikhosini bababunganyela. Babona ukuthi umlilo wawungabalimazanga imizimba yabo, njalo kungahaqazekanga lalunye unwele lwamakhanda abo; izembatho zabo zingahangulekanga, njalo kunganuki mlilo kubo.
Chu in gamsung vaipolen ho, vaihom ho, gamkai vaipo’a pang ho, chuleh lengpa thumop’a pangho abon’un ahungkhom soh keijun, amaho thumchu aum kimvelun, hiche mithum ho chu meikong chun ima alotheipoi ti amu sohtauve. Alujanguva sam jang khat jong akapon, chuleh aponsil’u jong akapoi. Atahsa chung uva meikhugim cha jong anam pouve.
28 UNebhukhadineza wasesithi, “Kadunyiswe uNkulunkulu kaShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko, othume ingilosi yakhe wasindisa izinceku zakhe! Bathemba kuye badelela umlayo wenkosi njalo bazimisela ukunikela impilo zabo kulokuthi bakhonze loba badumise omunye uNkulunkulu ngaphandle kowabo uNkulunkulu.
Hichun Nebuchadnezzar chun aseitai, “Shadrach, Mesach chuleh Abednego Pathen chu thangvahin umhen. Aman vantil ahinsolin, kitah tah’a alhacha-a pangho ahuhdoh sahtai. Amahon a Pathen’u tilou, Pathen dangho houna leh alhacha-a pan sangin, thidingin atahsa’u apedoh’un, lengpa thupeh jong adonse tapouvin ahi.
29 Ngakho sengimisa isimemezelo ukuthi abantu loba ngabasiphi isizwe kumbe ulimi abakhuluma okubi ngoNkulunkulu kaShadreki, loMeshaki lo-Abhediniko kabaqunywaqunywe izicucu, lezindlu zabo zenziwe izinqwaba zezibi, ngoba kakho omunye uNkulunkulu ongasindisa ngale indlela.”
Hijeh chun, keiman hiche thupeh hi gahtah’a kabol ahi. Ami jouse, koimi koinam hihen, ipi pao tho hijong leh, Shadrach, Mesach chuleh Abednego Pathen douna kamcheng khat seidoh chu, atahsa kibottel ding chuleh a-in’u jong kiphelha-a, in-gem’a kikoi ding ahi. Ajeh chu hitobang’a mi huhdoh ding Pathen dang aumpoi,’’ ati.

Chujouvin, lengpan jong Shadrach, Mesach chuleh Abednego chu Babylon gamkai sung’a vaipohna sangjo apehbetan ahi.
