< Daaniʼel 1 >

1 Bara Yehooyaaqiim mooticha Yihuudaa keessa, waggaa sadaffaatti Nebukadnezar mootiin Baabilon dhufee Yerusaalemin marse.
Ngomnyaka wesithathu wokubusa kukaJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda, kwafika uNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni eJerusalema, wayivimbezela.
2 Gooftaanis Yehooyaaqiim mooticha Yihuudaa miʼoota mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa tokko tokko wajjin dabarsee harka isaatti kenne. Miʼoota kanneenis gara mana Waaqa isaa, gara Baabilonitti geeffatee mankuusaa mana Waaqa isaa keessa kaaʼate.
INkosi yasinikela uJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda esandleni sakhe, lengxenye yezitsha zendlu kaNkulunkulu; wasezisa elizweni leShinari, endlini kankulunkulu wakhe; waletha izitsha endlini yenotho kankulunkulu wakhe.
3 Mootichis ergasii Ashfenaz itti gaafatamaa qondaaltota isaa sana waamee akka inni Israaʼeloota sanyii moototaatii fi maatii ulfina qabeeyyii taʼan tokko tokko ol galchu ajaje;
Inkosi yasikhuluma kuAshipenazi induna yabathenwa bayo, ukuthi alethe abanye kubantwana bakoIsrayeli, lakunzalo yesikhosini, lakuziphathamandla;
4 isaanis dargaggeeyyii hirʼina dhagnaa hin qabne, babbareedoo, kanneen barumsa gosa kamii iyyuu barachuuf dandeettii ogummaa qaban, kanneen beekumsaan badhaadhan, kanneen waan hunda hubachuu dandaʼanii fi masaraa mootummaa keessa tajaajiluuf gaʼumsa qaban turan. Innis afaanii fi katabbii Baabilonotaa isaan barsiisuu qaba ture.
amajaha okungelalasici kuwo, amahle ngesimo, azingcwethi kuyo yonke inhlakanipho, alolwazi ngolwazi, alokuqedisisa ekwazini, lokwakulamandla kuwo okuma esigodlweni senkosi, lokuthi bawafundise izincwadi lolimi lwamaKhaladiya.
5 Mootichis nyaataa fi daadhii wayinii kan guyyaa guyyaatti isaan barbaachisu maaddii mootummaa irraa isaaniif ajaje. Isaanis tajaajila mootichaa seenuuf waggaa sadii leenjifamuu qabu ture.
Inkosi yasiwamisela into yosuku ngosuku lwayo esabelweni sokudla kwenkosi, lewayinini lokunatha kwayo, lokuthi bawakhulise iminyaka emithathu, ukuze ekupheleni kwayo azekuma phambi kwenkosi.
6 Isaan kanneen keessaa warri Yihuudaadhaa dhufan Daaniʼel, Hanaaniyaa, Miishaaʼeelii fi Azaariyaa turan.
Njalo kwakukhona phakathi kwabo kubantwana bakoJuda: ODaniyeli, uHananiya, uMishayeli, loAzariya.
7 Itti gaafatamaan qondaaltotaa sun Daaniʼeliin Beelxishaazaar, Hanaaniyaadhaan Shaadraak, Miishaaʼeelin, Meeshak, Azaariyaadhaan immoo Abdanaagoo jedhee maqaa haaraa baaseef.
Njalo induna yabathenwa yabatha amabizo; ngoba yamutha uDaniyeli ngokuthi nguBeliteshazari; loHananiya ngokuthi nguShadraki; loMishayeli ngokuthi nguMeshaki; loAzariya ngokuthi nguAbedinego.
8 Daaniʼel garuu nyaataa fi daadhii wayinii mootichaatiin of xureessuu dide; innis akkasiin akka of hin xureessineef itti gaafatamaa qondaaltotaa sana eeyyama gaafate.
Kodwa uDaniyeli wazimisela enhliziyweni yakhe ukuthi angazingcolisi ngesabelo sokudla kwenkosi, langewayini yokunatha kwayo; ngakho wacela enduneni yabathenwa ukuthi angazingcolisi.
9 Waaqnis yeroo kanatti akka Daaniʼel fuula qondaala sanaa duratti surraa fi gara laafina argatu godhe;
UNkulunkulu wasemnika uDaniyeli umusa lesihawu phambi kwenduna yabathenwa.
10 qondaalli sun garuu Daaniʼeliin, “Ani gooftaa koo isa nyaataa fi dhugaatii keessan isiniif ramade sana nan sodaadha; inni maaliif dargaggoota hiriyoota keessan kaan caalaa huqqattanii isin arga? Kanaan isin mootichi balaa mataa kootti fiddu” jedhe.
Induna yabathenwa yasisithi kuDaniyeli: Ngiyayesaba inkosi yami, inkosi, emise ukudla kwenu lokunathwayo kwenu; ngoba kungani izabona ubuso benu budanile kulamajaha ayintanga yenu? Ngokunjalo lizafaka ikhanda lami engozini enkosini.
11 Kana irratti Daaniʼel waardiyyaa itti gaafatamaan qondaaltotaa sun Daaniʼelii fi Hanaaniyaa irratti, Miishaaʼeelii fi Azaariyaa irratti muude Meldaariin akkana jedhe;
UDaniyeli wasesithi kumphathi, induna yabathenwa eyayimmise waba phezu kwaboDaniyeli, uHananiya, uMishayeli, loAzariya:
12 “Maaloo tajaajiltoota kee bultii kudhaniif ilaali; biqiltuu nyaatamuu fi bishaan dhugamu malee waan biraa nuuf hin kennin.
Ake ulinge inceku zakho insuku ezilitshumi; njalo basinike okwemibhida eyimidumba ukuthi sidle, lamanzi ukuthi sinathe.
13 Sana booddee bifa keenyaa fi bifa dargaggoota nyaata mootii nyaatanii wal biratti ilaali; waan argite irratti hundaaʼiitii tajaajiltoota kee irratti waan feete murteessi.”
Kakuthi-ke izimo zethu zibonakale phambi kwakho, lezimo zamajaha adla isabelo sokudla kwenkosi; wenze-ke ezincekwini zakho njengokubona kwakho.
14 Innis yaada kana fudhatee bultii kudhan isaan qore.
Wasebalalela kuloludaba, wabalinga insuku ezilitshumi.
15 Dhuma bultii kurnan sanaattis isaan dargaggoota nyaata mootii nyaatan sana caalaa fayyaaleyyii fi warra dhagni isaanii furdatee miidhage taʼanii argaman.
Kwathi ekupheleni kwezinsuku ezilitshumi izimo zabo zabonakala zizinhle njalo zizimukile enyameni kulawo wonke amajaha ayesidla isabelo sokudla kwenkosi.
16 Kanaafuu waardiyyaan sun qooda nyaata filatamaa fi daadhii wayinii kan isaan dhuguu qaban sanaa raafuu qofa isaaniif kenne.
Ngakho-ke umphathi wasusa isabelo sokudla kwabo, lewayini lokunatha kwabo, wabanika imibhida.
17 Waaqnis dargaggoota afran kanneeniif barumsaa fi ogummaa hunda keessatti beekumsaa fi dandeetii kenneef. Daaniʼelis mulʼataa fi abjuu hunda hubachuu dandaʼa ture.
Mayelana lala amajaha amane, uNkulunkulu wawanika ulwazi lokuqedisisa kuzo zonke izincwadi, lenhlakanipho. Njalo uDaniyeli waqedisisa ngayo yonke imibono lamaphupho.
18 Yommuu guyyaan mootichi akka isaan gara isaatti dhiʼaatan murteesse gaʼettis, qondaalli hangaftichi fuula Nebukadnezar duratti isaan dhiʼeesse.
Kwathi ekupheleni kwezinsuku inkosi eyayitshilo ukuthi bazawangenisa ngazo, induna yabathenwa yawangenisa phambi kukaNebhukadinezari.
19 Mootichis isaan haasofsiise; innis nama Daaniʼeliin, Hanaaniyaan, Miishaaʼeelii fi Azaariyaan qixxaatu tokko illee hin arganne; kanaafuu isaan hojii mootichaa jalqaban.
Inkosi yasikhuluma lawo; njalo phakathi kwawo wonke kakutholwanga onjengoDaniyeli, uHananiya, uMishayeli, loAzariya; ngakho ema phambi kwenkosi.
20 Mootichis waaʼee ogummaa fi beekumsaa kan isaan gaafate hundaan akka isaan ilaaltotaa fi falfaltoota biyyattiitti argaman hunda harka kudhan caalan arge.
Mayelana lazo zonke izindaba zenhlakanipho lokuqedisisa, inkosi eyayiwabuza ngazo, yawathola esedlula ngokuphindwe katshumi bonke abalumbi lezangoma abasembusweni wayo wonke.
21 Daaniʼelis hamma waggaa tokkoffaa Qiiros mootichaatti achuma ture.
Njalo uDaniyeli waba khona kwaze kwaba ngumnyaka wokuqala wenkosi uKoresi.
