दानिएल 6
1 दारालाई १२० जना प्रान्तिय गभर्नरहरू नियुक्त गर्न मन लाग्यो, जसले सारा राज्यभरि शासन गर्नेछन् ।
It was pleasing before Darius, that he should set up over the kingdom, a hundred and twenty satraps, —that they should be over all the kingdom;
2 तिनीहरूमाथि तिन जना प्रमुख प्रशासकहरू थिए, र तिनीहरूमध्ये दानिएल एक जना थिए । ती प्रमुख प्रशासकहरूले प्रान्तिय गभर्नरहरूको निगरानी गरून् जसले गर्दा राजालाई कुनै नोक्सान नहोस् भनेर तिनीहरूलाई नियुक्त गरिएको थियो ।
and, over these, three confidential ministers, of whom, Daniel, was first, —that, to them, these satraps should render an account, and, the king, not be suffering loss.
3 अन्य प्रमुख प्रशासकहरू र प्रान्तिय गभर्नरहरूभन्दा दानिएल विशिष्ट थिए, किनभने उनमा असाधारण आत्मा थियो । राजाले उनलाई सारा राज्यमा प्रमुख बनाउने योजना गर्दै थिए ।
Then, this Daniel, signalised himself, above the ministers and the satraps, because, a distinguished spirit, was in him, and, the king, thought to set him up over all the kingdom,
4 अनि अरू प्रमुख प्रशासकहरू र प्रान्तिय गभर्नरहरूले त्यस राज्यको निम्ति दानिएलले गर्ने काममा त्रुटी खोज्न थाले, तर तिनीहरूले उनको काममा कुनै पनि भ्रष्टचार वा उनको जिम्मेवारीमा असफलता भेट्टाउन सकेनन्, किनभने उनी विश्वासयोग्य थिए । उनमा कुनै त्रुटी वा हेलचेक्र्याइँ भेट्टाइएन ।
Then, the ministers and the satraps, began seeking to find, occasion, against Daniel, in respect of the kingdom, —but, no occasion nor wickedness, could they find, inasmuch as, faithful, was he, and, neither error nor wickedness, could be found against him.
5 अनि यी मानिसहरूले भने, “आफ्नो परमेश्वरको व्यवस्थासँगको दानिएलको सम्बन्धको कुरामा तिनको विरुद्ध केही खोट नदेखाएसम्म हामीले तिनको विरुद्ध अरू कुनै अभियोग लगाउन सक्दैनौं ।”
Then, these men, were saying, We shall not find against this Daniel, any occasion; unless we find it against him in respect of the law of his God.
6 अनि यी मुख प्रशासकहरू र प्रान्तिय गभर्नरहरूले राजाको सामु एउटा योजना ल्याए । तिनीहरूले उनलाई भने, “महाराजा दारा, हजुर दिर्घायु हुनुहोस्!
Then, these ministers and satraps, crowded together unto the king, —and, thus, were saying to him, O Darius the king! for ages, live!
7 राज्यका सबै प्रमुख प्रशासकहरू र क्षेत्रीय गभर्नरहरू र प्रदेशीय गभर्नरहरू, सल्लाहकारहरू, र अन्य गभर्नरहरूले एकसाथ सल्लाह गरी यो निर्णय गरेका छौं, कि राजाले एउटा यस्तो उर्दि निकाली त्यसलाई लागु गर्नुहोस्, र भन्नुहोस्, तिस दिनसम्म हजुरबाहेक अरू कुनै देवता वा मानिसलाई कसैले प्रार्थना गर्यो भने, त्यो मानिस सिंहको खोरमा फालिनुपर्छ ।
All the ministers of the kingdom, the nobles and satraps, the near friends and the pashas, have consulted together, to establish a royal statute, and to confirm an interdict, —That, whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man, for thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions.
8 अनि राजाले एउटा उर्दि निकाले र कागजातमा दस्तखत गरे, ताकि मादी र फारसीहरूका नियमअनुसार त्यो परिवर्तन नहोस्, यसरी त्यसलाई हेरफेर गर्न सकिन्न ।”
Now, O king! wilt thou establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it may not be changed—according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be abolished,
9 यसरी राजा दाराले कागजातमा दस्तखत गरेर त्यस उर्दिलाई ऐन बनाए ।
Wherefore, King Darius, signed the writing and the interdict.
10 कागजातमा ऐन बनाउनलाई दस्तखत भएको छ भनी दानिएल थाहा पाएपछि, उनी आफ्नो घरमा गए (यरूशलेमतर्फ फर्केका उनको माथिल्लो कोठाका झ्यालहरू खुल्ला थिए), र जसरी उनले दिनको तिनपटक गर्ने गर्थे, त्यसरी नै उनले आफ्ना घुँडाहरू टेके, अनि उनले पहिले गरेझैं प्रार्थना गरे र आफ्ना परमेश्वरलाई धन्यवाद दिए ।
But, Daniel, when he knew that the writing, was signed, went to his own house, and, the windows being opened to him, in his chamber, toward Jerusalem, three times a day, was he kneeling upon his knees, and praying and giving thanks before his God, in like manner as he had been doing aforetime.
11 अनि यी एकसाथ मिलेर षड्यन्त्र गरेका मानिसहरूले दानिएलले परमेश्वरसँग बिन्ती गरेका र उहाँसँग मदत मागेका देखे ।
Then, these men, crowded together, and found Daniel, —praying and making supplication, before his God.
12 तब तिनीहरू राजाको नजिक गए र तिनको उर्दिको विषयमा तिनीसँग कुरा गरे: “हे महाराजा, के आउँदो तिस दिनसम्म हजुर, महाराजाबाहेक अरू कुनै देवता वा मानिसलाई प्रार्थना गर्ने मानिस सिंहको खोरमा फालिनुपर्छ भनेर हजुरले उर्दि निक्लनुभएको थिएन र?” राजाले जवाफ दिए, “मादी र फारसीहरूको ऐनअनुसार यो निश्चित छ, र यो हेरफेर हुन सक्दैन ।”
Then drew they near, and began to speak before the king, concerning the royal interdict, Didst thou not sign, an interdict, that, any man who should petition of any God or man, for thirty days, save of thee, O king, should be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, Certain is the thing—according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be abolished.
13 तब तिनीहरूले राजालाई जवाफ दिए, “यहूदाका निर्वासितहरूमध्ये एक जना ती दानिएलले हजुर, महाराजा, वा हजुरले दस्तखत गर्नुभएको उर्दिको वेवास्ता गर्छन् । तिनले आफ्नो परमेश्वरलाई दिनको तिन पटक प्रार्थना गर्छन् ।”
Then answered they and were saying before the king, Daniel, who is of the sons of the exile of Judah, hath made thee, O king, of none account, also the interdict which thou hast signed, —but, three times a day, is asking his petition.
14 जबा राजाले यो कुरा सुने, तिनी धेरै विचलित भए, र दानिएललाई यस कानूनबाट बचाउन तिनले दिमाग लगाए । तिनले सूर्यास्तसम्मै दानिएललाई बचाउने हरसम्भव प्रयास गरे ।
Then, the king, when he heard, the matter, was sorely displeased with himself, and, upon Daniel, set his heart, to deliver him, —and, until the going in of the sun, was striving to rescue him.
15 त्यसपछि षड्यन्त्र रच्ने यी मानिसहरू एकसाथ राजाकहाँ भेला भए र तिनलाई भने, “हे महाराजा हजुरलाई यो थाहा होस्, कि यो मादी र फारसीहरूको ऐन हो, जसलाई राजाले जारी गर्ने अर्को कुनै उर्दि वा नियमले हेरफेर गर्न सक्दैन ।”
Then, these men, crowded unto the king, —and were saying to the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, that, no interdict nor statute which the king establisheth, may be changed.
16 अनि राजाले आज्ञा दिए र तिनीहरूले दानिएललाई भित्र ल्याए र तिनीहरूले उनलाई सिंहको खोरमा फाले । राजाले दानिएललाई भने, “तिमीले निरन्तर सेवा गर्ने तिम्रो परमेश्वरले तिमीलाई बचाऊन् ।”
Then, the king, gave word, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. The king spake and said to Daniel, —Thy God, whom thou art serving continually, he, will deliver thee.
17 खोरको ढोकामा एउटा ढुङ्गो ल्याएर राखियो, र दानिएलको विषयमा केही पनि परिवर्तन नहोस् भनेर राजाले त्यसमा आफ्नो अनि आफ्ना भारदारहरूका औंठीको मोहर लगाए ।
And there was brought a certain stone, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet-ring, and with the signet-ring of his nobles, that nothing might be changed, as to Daniel.
18 त्यसपछि राजा आफ्नो महलमा गए र रातभरि उपवास बसे । तिनको अगि कुनै मनोरन्जनका कुरा ल्याइएन, र उनलाई कत्ति पनि निद्रा लागेन ।
Then the king departed to his palace, and spent the night fasting, and no, table, was brought in before him, —and, his sleep, fled from him.
19 अनि राजा बिहान सबेरै उठे र उनी झट्टै सिंहको खोरतर्फ गए ।
Then the king rose early, with the dawn, —and, hastily—unto the den of lions, departed;
20 जसै तिनी खोरको नजिक आए, तिनले निरास भएको सोरले दानिएललाई यसो भनेर बोलाए, “ए दानिएल, जीवित परमेश्वरका सेवक, के तिमीले निरन्तर सेवा गर्ने तिम्रा परमेश्वरले तिमीलाई सिंहहरूबाट बचाउन सक्षम हुनुभएको छ?”
and, when he drew near to the den, unto Daniel, with distressed voice, made he outcry, —the king spake and said unto Daniel, O Daniel! servant of the Living God! Thy God, whom thou art serving continually, hath he been able to deliver thee from the lions?
21 अनि दानिएलले राजालाई भने, “महाराजा, अमर रहून्!
Then, Daniel, with the king, spake, —O king! for ages, live!
22 मेरा परमेश्वरले आफ्नो सन्देशवाहक पठाउनुभएको अनि सिंहहरूका मुखहरूलाई बन्द गर्नुभएको छ, र तिनीहरूले मलाई कुनै हानी गरेका छैनन् । किनभने उहाँ अनि हजुर, महाराजाका सामु म दोषरहित भेट्टाइएँ, र मैले हजुरलाई कुनै हानी गरेको छैनँ ।”
My God, hath sent his messenger, and hath shut the mouth of the lions, and they have not hurt me; forasmuch as, before him, rectitude was found in me, moreover also, before thee, O king, no, crime, had I committed.
23 अनि राजा अत्यन्तै खुशी भए । तिनले दानिएललाई खोरबाट माथि निकाल्ने आदेश दिए । यसैले दानिएललाई खोरबाट माथि निकालियो । उनमा कुनै पनि चोट भेट्टाइएन, किनभने उनले आफ्ना परमेश्वरमाथि भरोसा गरेका थिए ।
Then, the king, was exceedingly glad concerning him, and gave word to take up, Daniel, out of the den. So Daniel, was taken up, out of the den, and, no manner of hurt, was found in him, for that he had trusted in his God.
24 राजाले आदेश दिए र दानिएललाई दोष लगाउने मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूले ल्याए अनि तिनीहरू, तिनका छोराछोरी, र तिनका पत्नीहरूलाई सिंहहरूको खोरमा फालिदिए । तिनीहरू भुइँमा पुग्न नपाउँदै, सिंहहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि झम्टे, र तिनीहरूका हड्डीहरूलाई टुक्रा टुक्रा पारे ।
And the king, gave word, that they should bring those men who had accused Daniel, and, into the den of lions, they cast them—them, their children, and their wives, —and, they had not reached the bottom of the den, when the lions, seized them, and, all their bones, brake they in pieces.
25 त्यसपछि राजा दाराले पृथ्वीमा बस्ने सबै मानिसहरू, जातिहरू, र भाषा बोल्नेहरूलाई यस्तो लेखे: “तिमीहरूमा प्रशस्त शान्ति होस् ।
Then, Darius the king, wrote to all the peoples, the races, and the tongues who were dwelling in all the earth, Your prosperity abound!
26 म अब यो एउटा उर्दि जारी गर्छु, कि मेरो अधिराज्यमा रहने सबै मानिसले दानिएलका परमेश्वरको भय मान्नू र आदर गर्नू, किनभने उहाँ नै जीवित परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ र उहाँ सदासर्वदा रहनुहुन्छ, र उहाँको राज्य नष्ट हुनेछैन, र उहाँको प्रभुत्व अन्त्यसम्म रहनेछ ।
From before me, is appointed a decree that, throughout every dominion of my kingdom, men tremble and withdraw falteringly from before the God of Daniel, —for that, he, is the Living God, and abiding for ages, and, his kingdom, that which shall not be destroyed, and, his dominion, is unto the end:
27 उहाँले हामीलाई सुरक्षित राख्नुहुन्छ र हामीलाई बचाउनुहुन्छ, अनि उहाँले स्वर्गमा र पृथ्वीमा चिन्हहरू र आश्चर्य कामहरू गर्नुहुन्छ । उहाँले दानिएललाई सिंहहरूको शक्तिबाट सुरक्षित राख्नुभएको छ ।”
who delivereth and rescueth and worketh signs and wonders, in the heavens, and in the earth, —for that he hath delivered Daniel out of the power of the lions.
28 यसरी दाराको शासनकालमा अनि फारसी कोरेसको शासनकालमा दानिएल समृद्धि भयो ।
And, this Daniel, prospered in the reign of Darius, —and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.:
