1 Kwaba kuhle kuDariyusi ukubeka phezu kombuso iziphathamandla ezilikhulu lamatshumi amabili, ukuthi zibe phezu kombuso wonke,
Ɛsɔɔ Ɔhene Dario ani sɛ ɔbɛpa ahenemma ɔha ne aduonu de wɔn atuatua amantam a ɛwɔ ahemman no mu no ano.
2 laphezu kwazo ababonisi abathathu, uDaniyeli aba ngowokuqala kubo; ukuthi leziziphathamandla zilandise kubo, njalo inkosi ingabi lomonakalo.
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 Lapho uDaniyeli lo wenza ngcono kulababonisi leziphathamandla, ngoba umoya owedlulisileyo wawukuye. Njalo inkosi yacabanga ukumbeka phezu kombuso wonke.
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 Lapho ababonisi leziphathamandla badinga ukuthola ithuba bemelene loDaniyeli mayelana lombuso; kodwa bengelakho ukuthola ithuba kumbe insolo; ngoba wayethembekile, futhi kungelampambaniso kumbe insolo okwatholakala kuye.
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 Lapho lawomadoda athi: Kasiyikuthola thuba ngaye lo uDaniyeli ngaphandle kokuthi silithole limelene laye emlayweni 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 Lapho labobabonisi leziphathamandla babuthana ndawonye enkosini, batsho kanje kuyo: Dariyusi nkosi, phila kuze kube nininini!
Enti mpanyimfo no ne ahenemma no kɔɔ Ɔhene Dario no nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nana wo nkwa so!
7 Bonke ababonisi bombuso, izinduna, leziphathamandla, abeluleki, lababusi bacebisa ukumisa umthetho wesikhosini, lokwenza isimiso esiqinileyo, ukuthi loba ngubani ozacela isicelo lakuwuphi unkulunkulu loba umuntu phakathi kwezinsuku ezingamatshumi amathathu ngaphandle kuwe, nkosi, uzaphoselwa ebhalwini lwezilwane.
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 Khathesi, nkosi, misa umlayo uphawule umbhalo, ukuthi ungaguqulwa, njengokomthetho wamaMede lamaPerisiya, ongadluliyo.
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 uDariyusi yaphawula umbhalo lesimiso.
Ɛno nti, ɔhene Dario kyerɛw mmara no.
10 Kwathi lapho uDaniyeli asesazi ukuthi umbhalo uphawuliwe, wangena endlini yakhe; njalo amawindi ekamelo lakhe eliphezulu elikhangele eJerusalema evulekile; waguqa ngamadolo akhe izikhathi ezintathu ngosuku, wakhuleka, wapha izibongo phambi kukaNkulunkulu wakhe, njengokwenza kwakhe mandulo kwalokhu.
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 Lapho la amadoda abuthana, athola uDaniyeli ekhuleka encenga phambi kukaNkulunkulu wakhe.
Mpanyimfo no nyinaa bɔɔ mu kɔɔ Daniel fi kohuu no sɛ ɔrebɔ mpae resrɛ Onyankopɔn mmoa.
12 Lapho asondela, akhuluma phambi kwenkosi mayelana lesimiso senkosi athi: Kawuphawulanga isimiso yini, sokuthi wonke umuntu ocela lakuwuphi unkulunkulu loba umuntu phakathi kwezinsuku ezingamatshumi amathathu ngaphandle kuwe, nkosi, uzaphoselwa ebhalwini lwezilwane? Inkosi yaphendula yathi: Linto iliqiniso, ngokomthetho wamaMede lamaPerisiya ongadluliyo.
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 Lapho aphendula athi phambi kwenkosi: UDaniyeli ongowabantwana bokuthunjwa bakoJuda kakunanzi, nkosi, lesimiso osiphawulileyo, kodwa uyakhuleka isicelo sakhe izikhathi ezintathu ngosuku.
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 lapho inkosi isizwile lelilizwi, yazizondela kakhulu, yabeka ingqondo kuDaniyeli ukumkhulula; yebo, yalwisa laze latshona ilanga ukumophula.
Ɔhene no tee saa no, ɛhaw no yiye, na osusuw ho ara kosii anwummere pɛɛ, ɔkwan bi a ɔbɛfa so agye Daniel nkwa.
15 Lapho abuthana enkosini lawomadoda, athi enkosini: Yazi, nkosi, ukuthi umthetho wamaMede lamaPerisiya uthi: Kakulasimiso kumbe umthetho inkosi eyawumisayo ongaguqulwa.
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 Lapho inkosi yalaya, bamletha uDaniyeli, bamphosela ebhalwini lwezilwane. Inkosi yaphendula yathi kuDaniyeli: UNkulunkulu wakho, omkhonzayo njalonjalo, kungathi angakukhulula!
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 Kwasekulethwa ilitshe, labekwa phezu komlomo wobhalu; inkosi yasilinameka ngendandatho elophawu lwayo, langendandatho elophawu lwamakhosi ayo, ukuze kungaguqulwa ulutho mayelana loDaniyeli.
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 Lapho inkosi yaya esigodlweni sayo, yachitha ubusuku izila ukudla; lamachacho kawalethwanga phambi kwayo; lobuthongo bayibalekela.
Afei ɔhene no san kɔɔ nʼahemfi a anadwo no nyinaa, wannidi. Ɔpoo anigyede biara, na wantumi anna anadwo mu no nyinaa.
19 Lapho inkosi yavuka emadabukakusa, yaya ngokuphangisa ebhalwini lwezilwane.
Ade kyee anɔpatutuutu no, ɔhene no yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ gyata amoa no ano.
20 Yathi isisondele ebhalwini, yamemeza ngelizwi lokulila kuDaniyeli; inkosi yaphendula yathi kuDaniyeli: Daniyeli, nceku kaNkulunkulu ophilayo, uNkulunkulu wakho omkhonzayo njalonjalo, ulakho ukukukhulula 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 Lapho uDaniyeli wathi enkosini: Nkosi, phila kuze kube nininini!
Daniel teɛɛ mu se, “Nana wo nkwa so!
22 UNkulunkulu wami uthumile ingilosi yakhe, yavala imilomo yezilwane, okokuthi kazingilimazanga, ngoba phambi kwakhe ukungabi lecala kutholakale kimi; njalo phambi kwakho, nkosi, kangenzanga bubi.
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 Lapho inkosi yamthokozela kakhulu, yalaya ukukhuphula uDaniyeli ebhalwini. UDaniyeli wasekhutshulwa ebhalwini, kakwatholwa kulimala kuye, ngoba ekholwe 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 yasilaya, kwasekulethwa lawomadoda ayehlebe uDaniyeli, bawaphosela ebhalwini lwezilwane, wona, abantwana bawo, labomkawo; kwathi bengakafiki phansi ebhalwini, izilwane zazibusa phezu kwabo, zachoboza 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 Lapho inkosi uDariyusi yabalela bonke abantu, izizwe, lezindimi, ezihlezi emhlabeni wonke, yathi: Kakwandiswe ukuthula kwenu.
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 Umlayo wenziwa yimi, ukuthi kukho konke ukubuswa kombuso wami bathuthumele besabe phambi kukaNkulunkulu kaDaniyeli; ngoba enguNkulunkulu ophilayo, lomi kuze kube nininini, lombuso wakhe ngongayikuchithwa, lokubusa kwakhe kuzakuba khona kuze kube sekupheleni.
“Mehyɛ mmara sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ obiara a ɔwɔ mʼaheman mu suro, fɛre na ɔde nidi ma Daniel Nyankopɔn.
27 Uyakhulula, ophule, enze izibonakaliso lezimangaliso emazulwini lemhlabeni, osekhulule uDaniyeli emandleni ezilwane.
“Ɔyɛ amanehunu mu gyefo na ogye nkwa nso;
28 Ngakho uDaniyeli lo waphumelela embusweni kaDariyusi, lembusweni kaKoresi umPerisiya.
Enti Daniel kɔɔ so dii yiye wɔ Ɔhene Dario ne Persiahene Kores mmere so.
