1 UDariyu wathanda ukubeka ababusi bezigaba abalikhulu lamatshumi amabili ukuba babuse kulolonke ilizwe,
Ɛsɔɔ Ɔhene Dario ani sɛ ɔbɛpa ahenemma ɔha ne aduonu de wɔn atuatua amantam a ɛwɔ ahemman no mu no ano.
2 wabeka omongameli abathathu phezu kwabo, omunye wabo enguDanyeli. Ababusi bezigaba babesethula kubo konke ukuze inkosi ingalahlekelwa lutho.
Ɔhene no san yii Daniel ne afoforo baanu bi sɛ mpanyimfo a wɔhwɛ ahenemma no so, sɛnea wɔbɛtoto nneɛma yiye, na ɔhene no ammɔ ka.
3 UDanyeli waba yisilomo, wedlula abanye omongameli lababusi bezigaba ngokwenza kwakhe, inkosi yaze yafisa ukumbeka phezu kwelizwe lonke.
Na Daniel daa ne ho adi sɛ onim de wɔ mpanyimfo ne ahenemma no mu, ɛno nti, Ɔhene yɛɛ nhyehyɛe sɛ, ɔde no besi ɔman no nyinaa so panyin.
4 Ngenxa yalokho omongameli lababusi bezigaba badinga amabhada okumangalela uDanyeli ngendlela ayeqhuba ngayo kwezombuso, kodwa behluleka. Kabafumananga kungcola kuye ngoba wayethembekile futhi engasihaga lemali njalo engayekethisi lutho.
Ɛyɛɛ saa maa mpanyimfo no ne ahenemma no hwehwɛɛ sɛ wobenya Daniel ho asɛm wɔ nʼamammui no fam, nanso wɔannya nʼadwumayɛ no ho mfomso biara, efisɛ ɔyɛ ɔnokwafo.
5 Ekucineni amadoda la athi, “Kasisoze safa salizuza izaba lokwethesa indoda le uDanyeli icala ngaphandle kwalokho okuphathelene lomthetho kaNkulunkulu wakhe.”
Na mmarima no kae se, “Yɛrennya Daniel yi ho asɛmmɔne biara gye sɛ yehu biribi a ɛfa ne nyamesom ho de sum no afiri.”
6 Ngakho omongameli lababusi bezigaba baya enkosini belixuku bafika bathi: “Oh nkosi Dariyu, mana njalo!
Enti mpanyimfo no ne ahenemma no kɔɔ Ɔhene Dario no nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nana wo nkwa so!
7 Omongameli besikhosini, labalisa, lababusi bezigaba, labeluleki lababusi bemikhono yelizwe bonke sebevumelene ukuthi inkosi kayikhuphe isimemezelo iwugcizelele umlayo othi noma ngubani okhuleka kuwuphi uNkulunkulu noma umuntu phakathi kwalezi insuku ezingamatshumi amathathu, ngaphandle kokukhuleka kuwe wena, Oh nkosi, uzaphoselwa emgodini wezilwane.
Yɛn mpanyimfo, ahenemma, afotufo ne mpanyimfo a aka no nyinaa apene so sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ Nana hyɛ mmara sɛ, adaduasa a edi anim yi, obiara nni ho kwan sɛ ɔbɛbɔ mpae akyerɛ onyame bi anaa onipa bi a ɛnyɛ wo Nana no, wɔde no bɛto gyata amoa mu.
8 Manje, Oh nkosi, sikhuphe lesosimemezelo sibhalwe phansi ukuze singaguqulwa njengoba kunjalo ngemithetho yamaMede lamaPhezhiya engaguqulwayo.”
Ɛno nti, Nana, kyerɛw na fa wo nsa hyɛ saa mmara yi ase, sɛnea Mediafo ne Persiafo mmara a wontumi nsesa no no te.”
9 Ngakho inkosi uDariyu yawubhala phansi lowomthetho.
Ɛno nti, ɔhene Dario kyerɛw mmara no.
10 Kwathi uDanyeli esezwile ukuthi umthetho wawusukhutshiwe, waya ekhaya endlini yakhe ephezulu esitezi eyayilamawindi avulwe akhangela eJerusalema. Kathathu ngelanga wayezilahla phansi ngamadolo akhuleke, ebonga uNkulunkulu wakhe, njengalokho ayevele ekwenza mandulo.
Na Daniel tee sɛ wɔde nsa ahyɛ mmara no ase no, ɔkɔɔ fie kɔhyɛn nʼabansoro dan a ne mfɛnsere anim kyerɛ Yerusalem no. Da biara obuu nkotodwe bɔɔ mpae mprɛnsa daa ne Nyankopɔn ase sɛnea ɔyɛ daa no.
11 Kwasekusithi amadoda la aqhubana elixuku afica uDanyeli ekhuleka ecela usizo kuNkulunkulu.
Mpanyimfo no nyinaa bɔɔ mu kɔɔ Daniel fi kohuu no sɛ ɔrebɔ mpae resrɛ Onyankopɔn mmoa.
12 Asesiya enkosini ayakhuluma layo ngomthetho owaphuma esigodlweni, athi: “Kawukhuphanga isimemezelo yini sokuthi ngezinsuku ezilandelayo ezingamatshumi amathathu noma ngubani okhuleka komunye unkulunkulu noma umuntu ngaphandle kokukhuleka kuwe, Oh nkosi, uzaphoselwa emgodini wezilwane?” Inkosi yaphendula yathi, “Lowomthetho umi njengemithetho yamaMede lamaPhezhiya, engeke iguqulwe.”
Enti wɔsan kɔɔ Ɔhene Dario no nkyɛn kɔkaee no ne mmara no se, “Nana, woamfa wo nsa anhyɛ mmara a ɛka se adaduasa a edi anim yi, obiara a ɔbɛbɔ obi mpae, onyame anaa onipa na ɛnyɛ Nana no, wɔde no bɛto gyata amoa mu no ana?” Ɔhene no buae se, “Yiw, saa mmara no wɔ hɔ; ɛyɛ Mediafo ne Persiafo mmara a, wɔrentumi nsesa no.”
13 Asesithi enkosini, “UDanyeli, ongomunye wabathunjwa bakoJuda, kakunanzi, wena nkosi, kanye lomthetho owawubhala phansi. Ulokhu ekhuleka kathathu ngelanga.”
Afei wɔka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no se, “Nana, Daniel no a ɔyɛ Yuda nnommum no mu baako no mmu wo, na onni wo mmara no nso so. Ɔda so bɔ ne Nyankopɔn mpae mprɛnsa da koro.”
14 Kwathi inkosi isikuzwile lokho yakhathazeka kakhulu; yayizimisele ukukhulula uDanyeli, yenza yonke imizamo yokumsiza ilanga laze layatshona.
Ɔhene no tee saa no, ɛhaw no yiye, na osusuw ho ara kosii anwummere pɛɛ, ɔkwan bi a ɔbɛfa so agye Daniel nkwa.
15 Amadoda lawo asehamba elixuku aya enkosini athi kuyo, “Khumbula, Oh nkosi, ukuthi ngomthetho wamaMede lamaPhezhiya kakulasimemezelo loba isimiso esikhutshwe yinkosi esingaguqulwa.”
Mmarima yi bɔɔ mu kɔɔ ɔhene no anim kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nana, nidi mu, wunim sɛ, Mediafo ne Persiafo mmara mu no, wontumi nsesa mmara biara a ɔhene ahyɛ.”
16 Ngakho inkosi yasikhupha umlayo, basebemletha uDanyeli bamphosela emphandwini wezilwane. Inkosi yathi kuDanyeli, “Sengathi uNkulunkulu wakho omkhonzayo njalonjalo angakuhlenga!”
Ɔhene Dario hyɛe se, wɔnkɔfa Daniel, na wɔntow no nkyene gyata amoa no mu. Ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Daniel, ma wo Nyankopɔn a wosom no daa no, nnye wo.”
17 Kwalethwa ilitshe lafakwa emnyango womgodi, inkosi yasilinameka ngendandatho yayo yobukhosi langezindandatho zezikhulu zayo, ukuze umumo kaDanyeli ungaguqulwa.
Wɔde bo bɛtoo amoa no ano. Na Ɔhene no de nʼankasa nsɔwano ne atitiriw nsɔwano susoo ɔbo no sɛnea obiara rentumi nyɛ Daniel ho hwee.
18 Yikho inkosi yase ibuyela esigodlweni sayo yazila ukudla lokunatha ubusuku bonke. Yehluleka ukulala.
Afei ɔhene no san kɔɔ nʼahemfi a anadwo no nyinaa, wannidi. Ɔpoo anigyede biara, na wantumi anna anadwo mu no nyinaa.
19 Kwathi emadabukakusa inkosi yavuka yaya emgodini wezilwane.
Ade kyee anɔpatutuutu no, ɔhene no yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ gyata amoa no ano.
20 Ithe isifikile emgodini, yamemeza uDanyeli ngelizwi losizi yathi, “Danyeli, nceku kaNkulunkulu ophilayo, uNkulunkulu wakho omkhonza njalonjalo ukuphephisile yini ezilwaneni?”
Oduu hɔ no, ɔde awerɛhow frɛe se, “Daniel, Onyankopɔn teasefo somfo. Wo Nyankopɔn a wosom no daa no tumi gyee wo fii gyata no mu ana?”
21 UDanyeli waphendula wathi, “Oh nkosi, mana njalo!
Daniel teɛɛ mu se, “Nana wo nkwa so!
22 UNkulunkulu wami uthume ingilosi yakhe yayivala imilomo yezilwane. Kazingilimazanga ngoba ngifunyanwe ngingelacala phambi kwakhe. Njalo kangikaze ngenze okubi kuwe, Oh nkosi.”
Me Nyankopɔn somaa ne bɔfo bɛkataa gyata no ano, sɛnea wɔrentumi nyɛ me bɔne, efisɛ wahu sɛ, midi bem wɔ nʼanim. Na wo, Nana nso, menyɛɛ wo bɔne biara ɛ.”
23 Inkosi yathaba yafa yakhupha umlayo wokuba uDanyeli akhutshulwe emgodini lowo. UDanyeli esekhutshiwe emgodini, kakubonakalanga nxeba kuye, ngoba wathemba kuNkulunkulu wakhe.
Ɔhene no ani gyee mmoroso, na ɔhyɛɛ sɛ wonyi Daniel mfi amoa no mu, enti wuyii no. Wɔanhu kam biara wɔ ne ho, efisɛ ɔde ne ho too ne Nyankopɔn so.
24 Inkosi yalaya ukuthi balethwe labo ababemangalele uDanyeli ngamanga baphoselwa emgodini wezilwane kanye labafazi babo labantwababo. Bathi bengakathinti phansi emgodini izilwane zabaqaga zabafohloza wonke amathambo abo.
Afei ɔhene no hyɛɛ sɛ wɔnkɔkyere mmarima a wɔnam ntwatoso so ma wɔde Daniel kɔtoo gyata amoa mu no. Ɔma wɔtow wɔn ne wɔn yerenom ne wɔn mma guu gyata amoa no mu. Gyata no huruhuruw sisii wɔn so, tetew wɔn, bobɔɔ wɔn nnompe mu ansa koraa na wɔredu amoa no ase.
25 Inkosi uDariyu yasilobela bonke abantu, lezizwe zonke lenhlanga zendimi zonke kulolonke ilizwe yathi: “Sengathi impilo enhle inganda kini!
Afei Ɔhene Dario de nkra yi kɔmaa nnipa ahorow nyinaa, aman nyinaa ne kasa biara wɔ wiase mmaa nyinaa se: “Ensi mo yiye mmoroso!
26 Ngimisa isimiso sokuthi kuzozonke izindawo zombuso wami, abantu kabesabe, bakhonze uNkulunkulu kaDanyeli.
“Mehyɛ mmara sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ obiara a ɔwɔ mʼaheman mu suro, fɛre na ɔde nidi ma Daniel Nyankopɔn.
27 Uyakhulula, asindise;
“Ɔyɛ amanehunu mu gyefo na ogye nkwa nso;
28 Ngakho uDanyeli waphumelela ngesikhathi sokubusa kukaDariyu lesokubusa kukaKhurosi umPhezhiya.
Enti Daniel kɔɔ so dii yiye wɔ Ɔhene Dario ne Persiahene Kores mmere so.
