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.
UNebhukadinezari inkosi wenza isithombe segolide; ubude baso babuzingalo ezingamatshumi ayisithupha, ububanzi baso buzingalo eziyisithupha; yasimisa egcekeni leDura, esabelweni seBhabhiloni.
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.
UNebhukadinezari inkosi wasethumela ukubuthela ndawonye iziphathamandla, ababusi, lezinduna, abeluleki, abaphathizikhwama, abehluleli, abathonisisi, labo bonke ababusi bezabelo, ukuze beze ekwehlukanisweni kwesithombe uNebhukadinezari inkosi ayesimisile.
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.
Lapho iziphathamandla, ababusi, lezinduna, abeluleki, abaphathizikhwama, abehluleli, abathonisisi, labo bonke ababusi bezabelo babuthana ndawonye ekwehlukanisweni kwesithombe uNebhukadinezari inkosi ayesimisile; basebesima phambi kwesithombe uNebhukadinezari ayesimisile.
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:
Ummemezeli wasememeza ngamandla wathi: Liyalaywa, lina bantu, zizwe, lezindimi, ukuthi:
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.
Ngesikhathi elizwa ngaso ukukhala kophondo, umhlanga, ichacho, ichachwana, ugubhu lwezintambo, umfece, layo yonke imihlobo yokukhaliswayo, liwele phansi, likhonze isithombe segolide uNebhukadinezari inkosi asimisileyo.
6 Namni addaan lafatti gombifamee hin sagadne kam iyyuu yoosuma boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼutti darbatama.”
Njalo loba ngubani ongawi phansi, akhonze, ngalesosikhathi uzaphoselwa phakathi kwesithando somlilo esivuthayo.
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.
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.
8 Yeroo kanatti Kaldoonni tokko tokko gara fuula duraatti dhufanii dabaan Yihuudoota himatan.
Ngakho ngalesosikhathi amaKhaladiya athile asondela, ahleba amaJuda.
9 Isaanis Nebukadnezar Mootichaan akkana jedhan; “Yaa mootii, ati bara baraan jiraadhu!
Aphendula athi kuNebhukadinezari inkosi: Nkosi, phila kuze kube nininini!
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;
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;
11 akka namni lafatti gombifamee sagaduu didu kam iyyuus boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼutti darbatamu seera baafteerta.
njalo loba ngubani ongawi phansi, akhonze, uzaphoselwa phakathi kwesithando somlilo ovuthayo.
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.”
Kukhona amaJuda athile owamise phezu komsebenzi wesabelo seBhabhiloni, oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego; la amadoda, nkosi, kawakunakanga; kawakhonzi onkulunkulu bakho, kawakhothameli isithombe segolide osimisileyo.
13 Nebukadnezaris akka malee aaree Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo waamsise. Kanaafuu namoonni kunneen mooticha duratti dhiʼeeffaman;
Lapho uNebhukadinezari ekuthukutheleni lekuvutheni kolaka walaya ukuletha oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego. Khonokho lawomadoda alethwa phambi kwenkosi.
14 Nebukadnezaris akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Yaa Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo, isin dhugumaan waaqota koo hin tajaajiltanii? Yookaan fakkii warqee ani dhaabeef hin sagaddanii?
UNebhukadinezari waphendula wathi kubo: Kungamabomu yini, Shadraki, Meshaki, loAbedinego, lingakhonzi onkulunkulu bami, lingakhothameli isithombe segolide engisimisileyo?
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?”
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?
16 Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoon deebisanii mootichaan akkana jedhan; “Yaa Nebukadnezar, nu fuula kee duratti waan kana falmachuu hin barbaannu.
OShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego baphendula bathi enkosini: Nebhukadinezari, kasidingi ukukuphendula kuloludaba.
17 Yaa Mootii, nu yoo boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼutti darbatamne, Waaqni nu isa tajaajillu sun nu oolchuu dandaʼa; harka keetii illee nu baasuu dandaʼa.
Uba kungenzeka, uNkulunkulu wethu esimkhonzayo ulakho ukusikhulula esithandweni somlilo ovuthayo; njalo uzasikhulula esandleni sakho, nkosi.
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.”
Kodwa uba kungenjalo, kakwaziwe kuwe, nkosi, ukuthi kasiyikubakhonza onkulunkulu bakho, lokuthi kasiyikukhothamela isithombe segolide osimisileyo.
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;
Lapho uNebhukadinezari wagcwala ulaka, lesimo sobuso bakhe sabaguqukela oShadraki, uMeshaki loAbedinego; waphendula, walaya ukuthi batshise isithando kasikhombisa ngaphezu kwalokho okwejwayeleke ukutshiswa ngakho.
20 akka isaan Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo hidhanii boolla ibiddi keessaa bobaʼu sanatti darbataniif loltoota isaa keessaa jajjaboo tokko tokko ajaje.
Waselaya amadoda alamandla ayesebuthweni lakhe ukuthi abophe oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego, ukuthi babaphosele esithandweni somlilo ovuthayo.
21 Kanaafuu namoonni kunneen akkuma wandaboo isaanii, fiddoo isaanii, marata isaanii kan mataatii fi uffata biraas uffatanitti hidhamanii boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼu sanatti darbataman.
Lawomadoda asebotshwa embethe izembatho zawo, amabhulugwe awo, lezingowane zawo, lezinye izigqoko zawo, aphoselwa phakathi kwesithando somlilo ovuthayo.
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;
Ngakho ngenxa yokuthi ilizwi lenkosi belibukhali, lesithando sitshisa kakhulu, ilangabi lomlilo labulala lawomadoda ayethwele oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego.
23 namoonni sadan kunneenis jabeeffamanii hidhamanii boolla ibiddi keessaa balaliʼu sana keessatti kufan.
Lala amadoda amathathu, oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego, awela phansi ebotshiwe phakathi kwesithando somlilo esivuthayo.
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.
Lapho uNebhukadinezari inkosi wethuka, wasukuma ngokuphangisa, waphendula wathi kubeluleki bakhe: Kasiphoselanga amadoda amathathu ebotshiwe phakathi komlilo yini? Baphendula bathi enkosini: Liqiniso, nkosi.
25 Innis, “Ilaa! Ani namoota ibidda keessa deddeebiʼan afur nan arga; isaanis hin hidhamne; hin miidhamnes; inni afuraffaan immoo ilma waaqotaa fakkaata” jedheen.
Yaphendula yathi: Khangelani, ngibona amadoda amane ekhululekile ehamba phakathi komlilo, njalo kakukho ukonakala kuwo; njalo isimo seyesine sifanana lendodana yabonkulunkulu.
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;
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.”
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.
30 Ergasii mootichi Shaadraak, Meeshakii fi Abdanaagoo kutaa biyyaa Baabilon irratti muude.
Lapho inkosi yabaphumelelisa oShadraki, uMeshaki, loAbedinego, esabelweni seBhabhiloni.
