2 UNebhukadinezari inkosi wasethumela ukubuthela ndawonye iziphathamandla, ababusi, lezinduna, abeluleki, abaphathizikhwama, abehluleli, abathonisisi, labo bonke ababusi bezabelo, ukuze beze ekwehlukanisweni kwesithombe uNebhukadinezari inkosi ayesimisile.
Esia megbe la, eyɔ amegãwo, anyigba la dzi ɖulawo, mɔmefiawo, gadzikpɔlawo, ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo, sefialawo kple nutomedzikpɔlawo be woava kpɔ legba si yeli la ŋuti kɔkɔ teƒe.

Ale amegãwo, dziɖulawo, aɖaŋudelawo gadzikpɔlawo, ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo, sefialawo kple nutomedzikpɔlawo va ƒo ƒu hena legba si Fia Nebukadnezar li la ŋuti kɔkɔ teƒe kpɔkpɔ, eye wotsi tsitre ɖe eŋgɔ.
4 Ummemezeli wasememeza ngamandla wathi: Liyalaywa, lina bantu, zizwe, lezindimi, ukuthi:
Tete gbeƒãɖela do ɣli sesĩe gblɔ be, “Nu si wode se be miawɔe nye esi: O amewo, dukɔwo kple gbe ɖe sia ɖe gblɔlawo,
5 Ngesikhathi elizwa ngaso ukukhala kophondo, umhlanga, ichacho, ichachwana, ugubhu lwezintambo, umfece, layo yonke imihlobo yokukhaliswayo, liwele phansi, likhonze isithombe segolide uNebhukadinezari inkosi asimisileyo.

6 Njalo loba ngubani ongawi phansi, akhonze, ngalesosikhathi uzaphoselwa phakathi kwesithando somlilo esivuthayo.
Ame sia ame si mamlɔ anyi eye wòade ta agu o la, woadae ɖe kpodzo bibi la me enumake.”
7 Ngakho ngalesosikhathi, lapho abantu bonke besizwa ukukhala kophondo, umhlanga, ichacho, ichachwana, ugubhu lwezintambo, layo yonke imihlobo yokukhaliswayo, bonke abantu, izizwe, lezindimi, bawela phansi, bakhonza isithombe segolide uNebhukadinezari inkosi ayesimisile.
Eya ta ne amewo nya se lãdzowo, dzewo, gakasaŋkuwo, saŋkuwo, evenɔwo ƒe dzewo kple saŋku ƒomevi vovovowo ƒe ɖiɖi ko la, amewo katã, dukɔwo me tɔwo kple gbe ɖe sia ɖe gblɔlawo mlɔa anyi eye wodea ta agu na sikalegba si Fia Nebukadnezar li.
8 Ngakho ngalesosikhathi amaKhaladiya athile asondela, ahleba amaJuda.
Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, ɣletivimenunyala aɖewo va tso Yudatɔwo nu.
9 Aphendula athi kuNebhukadinezari inkosi: Nkosi, phila kuze kube nininini!
Wogblɔ na Fia Nebukadnezar be, “O fia, nɔ agbe tegbee.
10 Wena nkosi, wenzile umlayo, ukuthi wonke umuntu ozakuzwa ukukhala kophondo, umhlanga, ichacho, ichachwana, ugubhu lwezintambo, lomfece, layo yonke imihlobo yokukhaliswayo, uzawela phansi akhonze isithombe segolide;
Ède se, O fia, be ne ame sia ame se lãdzowo, dzewo, gakasaŋkuwo, saŋkuwo, evenɔwo ƒe dzewo kple saŋku ƒomevi vovovowo ƒe ɖiɖi la, ele nɛ be wòamlɔ anyi ade ta agu na sikalegba la
11 njalo loba ngubani ongawi phansi, akhonze, uzaphoselwa phakathi kwesithando somlilo ovuthayo.
eye ame sia ame si mamlɔ anyi ade ta agu o la, woadae ɖe kpodzo si me dzo le bibim le la me.
12 Kukhona amaJuda athile owamise phezu komsebenzi wesabelo seBhabhiloni, oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego; la amadoda, nkosi, kawakunakanga; kawakhonzi onkulunkulu bakho, kawakhothameli isithombe segolide osimisileyo.
Ke Yudatɔ aɖewo li, ame siwo nètsɔ ɖo dziɖuɖu ƒe nyawo nu le Babilonia siwo nye Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego, ame siwo metsɔa ɖeke le eme na wò o. O fia, womesubɔa wò mawuwo o, eye womedea ta agu na sikalegba si nèli la o.”
13 Lapho uNebhukadinezari ekuthukutheleni lekuvutheni kolaka walaya ukuletha oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego. Khonokho lawomadoda alethwa phambi kwenkosi.
Nebukadnezar do dɔmedzoe ŋutɔ eye wòɖo du ɖe Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego. Ale wokplɔ ame siawo va fia la ŋkume.
14 UNebhukadinezari waphendula wathi kubo: Kungamabomu yini, Shadraki, Meshaki, loAbedinego, lingakhonzi onkulunkulu bami, lingakhothameli isithombe segolide engisimisileyo?
Fia la bia wo be, “Nyateƒe wònye, Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego, be miesubɔa nye mawuwo o eye miedea ta agu na sikalegba si meli la o mahã?
15 Khathesi, uba selilungile ukuthi ngesikhathi lisizwa ukukhala kophondo, umhlanga, ichacho, ichachwana, ugubhu lwezintambo, lomfece, layo yonke imihlobo yokukhaliswayo, liwele phansi, likhonze isithombe engisenzileyo, kuhle; kodwa uba lingakhonzi, ngalesosikhathi lizaphoselwa phakathi kwesithando somlilo ovuthayo. Ngubani-ke lowoNkulunkulu ozalikhulula ezandleni zami?
Azɔ la, ne miese lãdzokpẽwo, gakasaŋkuwo, kasaŋkuwo, saŋkuwo, evenɔwo ƒe kpẽwo kple hadzidzi ƒomevi ɖe sia ɖe ƒe ɖiɖi eye miele klalo be yeawoatsyɔ mo anyi ade ta agu na sikalegba si meli la, ekema anyo ŋutɔ gake ne miede ta agu nɛ o la, woada mi ɖe kpodzo bibi la me enumake. Ekema mawu ka ate ŋu aɖe mi tso nye asi me?”
16 OShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego baphendula bathi enkosini: Nebhukadinezari, kasidingi ukukuphendula kuloludaba.
Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego ɖo eŋu na fia la be, “O fia, mehiã be míaʋli mía ɖokuiwo ta le wò ŋkume le nya sia me o.
17 Uba kungenzeka, uNkulunkulu wethu esimkhonzayo ulakho ukusikhulula esithandweni somlilo ovuthayo; njalo uzasikhulula esandleni sakho, nkosi.
Ne woda mí ɖo ɖe kpodzoa me la, Mawu si míesubɔna la ate ŋu aɖe mí tso eme eye wòaɖe mí tso wò asi me, O fia.
18 Kodwa uba kungenjalo, kakwaziwe kuwe, nkosi, ukuthi kasiyikubakhonza onkulunkulu bakho, lokuthi kasiyikukhothamela isithombe segolide osimisileyo.
Ke ne maɖe mí o hã la, míedi be nànya, O fia, be míasubɔ wò mawuwo loo alo ade ta agu na sikalegba si nèli la o.”
19 Lapho uNebhukadinezari wagcwala ulaka, lesimo sobuso bakhe sabaguqukela oShadraki, uMeshaki loAbedinego; waphendula, walaya ukuthi batshise isithando kasikhombisa ngaphezu kwalokho okwejwayeleke ukutshiswa ngakho.
Tete Nebukadnezar do dɔmedzoe vevie ɖe Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego ŋu eye eƒe nɔnɔme ɖe wo ŋu trɔ. Eɖe gbe be woado dzo ɖe kpodzo la me wòaxɔ dzo zi adre wu ale si wòxɔa dzoe tsã.
20 Waselaya amadoda alamandla ayesebuthweni lakhe ukuthi abophe oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego, ukuthi babaphosele esithandweni somlilo ovuthayo.
Eɖe gbe na eƒe asrafo sesẽtɔwo le eƒe aʋakɔ me be woabla Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego eye woada wo ɖe kpodzo la me.
21 Lawomadoda asebotshwa embethe izembatho zawo, amabhulugwe awo, lezingowane zawo, lezinye izigqoko zawo, aphoselwa phakathi kwesithando somlilo ovuthayo.
Ale ame siawo, ame siwo do awu ʋlayawo, tablanuwo kple awu bubuwo la, wobla wo eye wokɔ wo ƒu gbe ɖo ɖe kpodzo si xɔ dzo ŋutɔŋutɔ la me.
22 Ngakho ngenxa yokuthi ilizwi lenkosi belibukhali, lesithando sitshisa kakhulu, ilangabi lomlilo labulala lawomadoda ayethwele oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego.
Fia la ƒe gbeɖeɖe nu sẽ, eye dzokpo la hã ƒe dzoxɔxɔ nu sẽ ale gbegbe be dzo la ƒe aɖewo wu asrafo siwo kɔ Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego ƒu gbe ɖe kpodzo la me.
23 Lala amadoda amathathu, oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego, awela phansi ebotshiwe phakathi kwesithando somlilo esivuthayo.
Ke ame etɔ̃ siawo, ame siwo wobla sesĩe la, ge dze dzo bibi la me.
24 Lapho uNebhukadinezari inkosi wethuka, wasukuma ngokuphangisa, waphendula wathi kubeluleki bakhe: Kasiphoselanga amadoda amathathu ebotshiwe phakathi komlilo yini? Baphendula bathi enkosini: Liqiniso, nkosi.
Tete Fia Nebukadnezar ƒe nu ku. Etso kpla eye wòbia eƒe aɖaŋudelawo be, “Menye ame etɔ̃e nɔ afi ma, ame siwo míebla tsɔ ƒu gbe do ɖe kpodzoa me oa?” Woɖo eŋu be, “Nenemae, O fia.”
25 Yaphendula yathi: Khangelani, ngibona amadoda amane ekhululekile ehamba phakathi komlilo, njalo kakukho ukonakala kuwo; njalo isimo seyesine sifanana lendodana yabonkulunkulu.
Fia la gblɔ be, “Mikpɔ ɖa! Mekpɔ ame ene, wole tsa ɖim le dzo la me; womebla wo o, nuvevi aɖeke mewɔ wo hã o eye ame enelia ɖi mawuwo ƒe viŋutsuvi aɖe.”
26 Lapho uNebhukadinezari wasondela emnyango wesithando somlilo esivuthayo, waphendula, wathi: Shadraki, Meshaki, loAbedinego, lina zinceku zikaNkulunkulu oPhezukonke, phumani, lize. Lapho oShadraki, Meshaki, loAbedinego baphuma phakathi komlilo.
Tete Fia Nebukadnezar te ɖe kpodzo la ƒe ʋɔtru ŋu, eye wòdo ɣli be, “Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego, Mawu Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ƒe subɔlawo, mido go. Miva afi sia!” Ale Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego do go le kpodzo la me
27 Iziphathamandla, ababusi, lezinduna, labeluleki benkosi, sebebuthene, babona la amadoda, umlilo owawungazanga ube lamandla phezu kwemizimba yawo, okwakungahangulwanga lonwele lwekhanda lawo, lezambatho zawo ezazingaguqukanga, lokunuka komlilo okwakungedlulanga kiwo.

28 UNebhukadinezari waphendula, wathi: Kadunyiswe uNkulunkulu kaShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego, othume ingilosi yakhe, wakhulula izinceku zakhe ezimthembileyo, zaze zaguqula ilizwi lenkosi, zanikela imizimba yazo, ukuze zingakhonzi zingakhuleki lakuwuphi unkulunkulu ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu wazo.
Tete Nebukadnezar gblɔ be, “Woakafu Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego ƒe Mawu, ame si ɖo eƒe mawudɔla ɖa eye wòɖe eƒe dɔlawo! Woxɔ edzi se eye wogbe fia la ƒe se dzi wɔwɔ, wolɔ̃ be yewoatsɔ yewoƒe agbewo ana wu be yewoasubɔ alo ade ta agu na mawu bubu negbe woawo ŋutɔ ƒe Mawu ko
29 Ngakho umlayo wenziwa yimi, ukuthi bonke abantu, isizwe, lolimi, olukhuluma okungafanelanga okumelene loNkulunkulu kaShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego, uzaqunywa iziqa, lendlu yakhe yenziwe inqumbi yomquba; ngoba engekho omunye unkulunkulu olakho ukophula njengalokhu.
eya ta mele se dem be dukɔ sia dukɔ me tɔ alo gbe aɖe gblɔla si agblɔ nya vɔ̃ aɖe ɖe Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego ƒe Mawu ŋu la, woaflii kakɛkakɛ eye woana eƒe aƒe nazu aɖukpo elabena mawu bubu aɖeke mate ŋu aɖe ame le mɔ sia nu o.”
30 Lapho inkosi yabaphumelelisa oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego, esabelweni seBhabhiloni.
Tete fia la do Sadrak, Mesak kple Abednego ɖe ŋgɔ le Babilonia nutoa me.
