Daaniʼel 3
1 Nebukadnezar Mootichi fakkii warqee kan dheerinni isaa dhundhuma jaatamaa fi balʼinni isaa dhundhuma jaʼaa hojjetee kutaa biyyaa Baabilon keessa dirree Duuraa jedhamu irra dhaabe.
Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits and its width six cubits. He set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.
2 Ergasii mootichi akka isaan eebba fakkii inni dhaabe sanaa irratti argamaniif ilmaan mootota, muudamoota, bulchitoota gorsitoota, itti gaafatamtoota mankuusa qabeenyaa, abbootii murtii, hayyoota seeraatii fi qondaaltota biyya hundaa waame.
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the local governors, the deputies, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
3 Kanaafuu eebba fakkii Nebukadnezar Mootichi dhaabe sanaa irratti argamuuf ilmaan moototaa, muudamoonni, bulchitoonni, gorsitoonni, itti gaafatamtoonni mankuusa qabeenyaa, abbootiin murtii hayyoonni seeraa biraatii fi qondaaltonni biyyaa hundi walitti qabamanii fuula fakkii sanaa dura dhadhaabatan.
Then the local governors, the deputies, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces were gathered together to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
4 Kana irratti labsituun tokko akkana jedhee sagalee guddaadhaan labse; “Yaa namoota, sabootaa fi namoonni afaan garaa garaa dubbattan hundi, wanni isin akka gootan ajajamtan kanaa dha:
Then the herald cried aloud, “To you it is commanded, peoples, nations, and languages,
5 Isin akkuma sagalee gaanfaa, ulullee, masiinqoo, kiraaraa, baganaa, kan faaggaatii fi sirbaa dhageessaniin addaan lafatti gombifamtanii fakkii warqee kan Nebukadnezar Mootichi dhaabeef sagaduu qabdu.
that whenever you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music, you fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has set up.
6 Namni addaan lafatti gombifamee hin sagadne kam iyyuu yoosuma boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼutti darbatama.”
Whoever does not fall down and worship shall be cast into the middle of a burning fiery furnace the same hour.”
7 Kanaafuu namoonni, saboonnii fi namoonni afaan garaa garaa dubbatan hundi yommuu sagalee gaanfaa, ulullee, masiinqoo, kiraaraa, baganaa fi sirbaa hunda dhagaʼanitti addaan lafatti gombifamanii fakkii warqee kan Nebukadnezar Mootichi dhaabe sanaaf sagadan.
Therefore at that time, when all the peoples heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music, all the peoples, the nations, and the languages fell down and worshiped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
8 Yeroo kanatti Kaldoonni tokko tokko gara fuula duraatti dhufanii dabaan Yihuudoota himatan.
Therefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near and brought accusation against the Jews.
9 Isaanis Nebukadnezar Mootichaan akkana jedhan; “Yaa mootii, ati bara baraan jiraadhu!
They answered Nebuchadnezzar the king, “O king, live for ever!
10 Yaa mootii, ati akka namni kam iyyuu yommuu sagalee gaanfaa, ulullee, masiinqoo, kiraaraa, baganaa kan faaggaatii fi kan sirbaa dhagaʼu kam iyyuu addaan lafatti gombifamee fakkii warqee sanaaf sagaduu qabu seera baafteerta;
You, O king, have made a decree that every man who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music shall fall down and worship the golden image;
11 akka namni lafatti gombifamee sagaduu didu kam iyyuus boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼutti darbatamu seera baafteerta.
and whoever does not fall down and worship shall be cast into the middle of a burning fiery furnace.
12 Garuu yaa Mooticha, Yihuudoonni ati dhimma biyya Baabilon irratti muudde tokko tokko ajaja kee didaniiru; isaanis Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo dha. Isaan waaqota kee hin tajaajilan yookaan fakkii warqee ati dhaabdeef hin sagadan.”
There are certain Jews whom you have appointed over the affairs of the province of Babylon: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These men, O king, have not respected you. They do not serve your gods, and do not worship the golden image which you have set up.”
13 Nebukadnezaris akka malee aaree Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo waamsise. Kanaafuu namoonni kunneen mooticha duratti dhiʼeeffaman;
Then Nebuchadnezzar in rage and fury commanded that Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego be brought. Then these men were brought before the king.
14 Nebukadnezaris akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Yaa Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo, isin dhugumaan waaqota koo hin tajaajiltanii? Yookaan fakkii warqee ani dhaabeef hin sagaddanii?
Nebuchadnezzar answered them, “Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, that you do not serve my gods and you do not worship the golden image which I have set up?
15 Amma isin yeroo sagalee gaanfaa, ulullee, masiinqoo, kiraaraa, baganaa, kan faaggaatii fi sirba kam iyyuu dhageessanitti kuftanii fakkii ani dhaabeef yoo sagaddan gaarii dha. Garuu yoo isin sagaduu baattan, yoosuma boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼutti darbatamtu. Egaa waaqa kamitu harka kootii isin baasuu dandaʼa?”
Now if you are ready whenever you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music to fall down and worship the image which I have made, good; but if you do not worship, you shall be cast the same hour into the middle of a burning fiery furnace. Who is that god who will deliver you out of my hands?”
16 Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoon deebisanii mootichaan akkana jedhan; “Yaa Nebukadnezar, nu fuula kee duratti waan kana falmachuu hin barbaannu.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered the king, “Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.
17 Yaa Mootii, nu yoo boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼutti darbatamne, Waaqni nu isa tajaajillu sun nu oolchuu dandaʼa; harka keetii illee nu baasuu dandaʼa.
If it happens, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace; and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king.
18 Yaa Mootii, yoo inni nu baasuu baate iyyuu nu waaqota kee akka hin tajaajille yookaan fakkii warqee ati dhaabde sanaaf akka hin sagadne akka beektu barbaanna.”
But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image which you have set up.”
19 Kana irratti Nebukadnezar akka malee aaree fuulli isaa Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagootti geeddarame. Akka ibiddi boollaa sunis hamma durii caalaa harka torba hoʼee finiinu ajaje;
Then Nebuchadnezzar was full of fury, and the form of his appearance was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was usually heated.
20 akka isaan Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo hidhanii boolla ibiddi keessaa bobaʼu sanatti darbataniif loltoota isaa keessaa jajjaboo tokko tokko ajaje.
He commanded certain mighty men who were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.
21 Kanaafuu namoonni kunneen akkuma wandaboo isaanii, fiddoo isaanii, marata isaanii kan mataatii fi uffata biraas uffatanitti hidhamanii boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼu sanatti darbataman.
Then these men were bound in their pants, their tunics, and their mantles, and their other clothes, and were cast into the middle of the burning fiery furnace.
22 Ajajni mootichaa akka malee ariifachiisaa ture; sababii ibiddi boollaa sun akka malee bobaʼaa tureef arrabni ibidda sanaa loltoota Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo geessan sana fixe;
Therefore because the king’s commandment was urgent and the furnace exceedingly hot, the flame of the fire killed those men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
23 namoonni sadan kunneenis jabeeffamanii hidhamanii boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼu sana keessatti kufan.
These three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the middle of the burning fiery furnace.
24 Nebukadnezar Mootichi dinqisiifachuudhaan utaalee kaʼee, “Namoonni nu hiinee ibiddatti darbanne sadii hin turree?” jedhee gorsitoota isaa gaafate. Isaanis, “Yaa Mootii, kun dhuguma” jedhanii deebisan.
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished and rose up in haste. He spoke and said to his counselors, “Did not we cast three men bound into the middle of the fire?” They answered the king, “True, O king.”
25 Innis, “Ilaa! Ani namoota ibidda keessa deddeebiʼan afur nan arga; isaanis hin hidhamne; hin miidhamnes; inni afuraffaan immoo ilma waaqotaa fakkaata” jedheen.
He answered, “Look, I see four men loose, walking in the middle of the fire, and they are unharmed. The appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.”
26 Nebukadnezaris gara afaan boolla ibiddi keessaa bobaʼutti dhiʼaatee sagalee guddaadhaan, “Yaa Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo, tajaajiltoota Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii, kottaa baʼaa! As kottaa” jedhe. Akkasiin Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoon ibidda keessaa baʼan;
Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace. He spoke and said, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, you servants of the Most High God, come out, and come here!” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the middle of the fire.
27 ilmaan moototaa, muudamoonni, bulchitoonnii fi gorsitoonni mootii naannoo isaaniitti walitti qabaman. Isaanis akka ibiddi sun dhagna jaraa hin miidhin yookaan akka rifeensa mataa isaanii keessaa tokko iyyuu hin gubatin ni argan; wandaboon isaanii iyyuu homaa hin taane; fooliin ibiddaas isaan irra hin turre.
The local governors, the deputies, and the governors, and the king’s counselors, being gathered together, saw these men, that the fire had no power on their bodies. The hair of their head was not singed. Their pants were not changed. The smell of fire was not even on them.
28 Kana irratti Nebukadnezar akkana jedhe; “Waaqa Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo isa ergamaa isaa ergee tajaajiltoota isaa baraareef galanni haa taʼu! Isaan isa amanatanii ajaja mootii didanii akka Waaqa isaanii malee waaqota biraa hin tajaajille yookaan hin waaqeffanne lubbuu isaanii dabarsanii kennaniiru.
Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent his angel and delivered his servants who trusted in him, and have changed the king’s word, and have yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god except their own God.
29 Kanaafuu Waaqni akkasitti nama oolchu kan biraa Waaqa hin jirreef, ani akka uummanni saba kamii iyyuu yookaan afaan kamii iyyuu yoo Waaqa Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo irratti waan hamaa dubbate kukkutamu, akka manni isaas tuullaa waan diigamee taʼu labseera.”
Therefore I make a decree that every people, nation, and language which speak anything evil against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill, because there is no other god who is able to deliver like this.”
30 Ergasii mootichi Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo kutaa biyyaa Baabilon irratti muude.
Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.
