Daaniʼel 6
1 Daariyoos akka isaan guutummaa mootummaa isaa keessatti bulchitoota taʼaniif ilmaan moototaa 120 muuduu barbaade;
And it pleased Darius, and he set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, to be in all his kingdom;
2 innis isaan irratti bulchitoota ol aantota sadii muude; isaan keessaas tokko Daaniʼel ture. Akka mooticha irra rakkinni hin geenyeefis ilmaan moototaa kunneen bulchitoota ol aantota sadan jalatti bulu.
and over them three governors, of whom one was, Daniel; for the satraps to give account to them, that the king should not be troubled.
3 Mootichi sababii Daaniʼel ilmaan moototaatii fi bulchitoota ol aantota kaan caalaa dandeettii addaa qabuuf isa jaallatee guutummaa mootummaa irratti isa muuduu barbaade.
And Daniel was over them, for [there was] an excellent spirit in him; and the king set him over all his kingdom.
4 Sababii kanaaf bulchitoonni ol aantonnii fi ilmaan moototaa waan hojii mootummaa ilaaluun Daaniʼelin himachuuf karaa barbaadan; garuu akkas gochuu hin dandeenye. Daaniʼel amanamaa, of eeggataa fi nama mudaa hin qabne waan taʼeef isaan isa irratti dogoggora tokko iyyuu argachuu hin dandeenye.
Then the governors and satraps sought to find occasion against Daniel; but they found against him no occasion, nor trespass, nor error, because he was faithful.
5 Dhuma irrattis namoonni kunneen, “Yoo waan seera Waaqa isaatiin wal qabatu taʼe malee waan ittiin namicha Daaniʼel jedhamu kana himannu tokko iyyuu hin argannu” jedhan.
And the governors said, We shall not find occasion against Daniel, except in the ordinances of his God.
6 Kanaafuu bulchitoonni ol aantonnii fi ilmaan moototaa tokkummaadhaan mooticha bira dhaqanii akkana jedhan; “Yaa Daariyoos mooticha, bara baraan jiraadhu!
Then the governors and satraps stood by the king, and said to him, King Darius, live for ever.
7 Yaa mootii, akka namni hamma bultii soddomaatti si malee Waaqa yookaan nama kam iyyuu kadhatu kam iyyuu boolla leencaatti darbatamu, akka mootichi labsii baasee ajajni isaas cimu bulchitoonni mootummaa, muudamoonni, ilmaan moototaa, gorsitoonnii fi qondaaltonni hundi walii galaniiru.
All who preside over your kingdom, captains and satraps, chiefs and local governors, have taken counsel together, to establish by a royal statue and to confirm a decree, that whoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, save of you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions.
8 Yaa mootii, labsii baasi, akka seera Meedee fi Faares kan hin geeddaramne sanaas mallatteessi.”
Now then, O king, establish the decree, and publish a writ, that the decree of the Persians and Medes be not changed.
9 Kanaafuu Daariyoos mootichi labsii sana barreessee baase.
Then king Darius commanded the decree to be written.
10 Daaniʼelis yommuu akka labsiin sun baʼe beeketti kutaa mana isaa kan foddaan isaa gara Yerusaalemitti garagalutti ol baʼe. Innis akkuma yeroo kaan godhu guyyaatti yeroo sadii jilbeenfatee Waaqa isaa kadhate, galatas galcheef.
And when Daniel knew that the decree was ordered, he went into his house; and his windows were opened in his chambers toward Jerusalem, and three times in the day he knelt upon his knees, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he used to do before.
11 Namoonni kunneen gareedhaan dhaqanii Daaniʼelii kadhatuu fi Waaqa isaa gargaarsa gaafatuu argatan.
Then these men watched, and found Daniel praying and supplicating to his God.
12 Kanaafuu isaan gara mootichaa dhaqanii, “Yaa mootii, ati akka namni guyyoota soddomman kana keessa si malee Waaqa yookaan nama tokko iyyuu kadhatu kam iyyuu boolla leencaatti darbatamu labsii hin baafnee?” jedhanii waaʼee labsii inni baase sanaa isa gaafatan. Mootichis, “Seerri sun seera akkuma seera Meedeetii fi Faares kan hin geeddaramnee dha” jedhee deebise.
And they came and said to the king, O king, has you not made a decree, that whatever man shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, but of you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? And the king said, The word is true, and the decree of the Medes and Persians shall not pass.
13 Isaan mootichaan, “Yaa mootii, warra Yihuudaadhaa boojiʼaman keessaa Daaniʼel siifis seera ati baafteefis xiyyeeffannaa hin kennu. Inni ammas guyyaatti yeroo sadii Waaqa isaa kadhata” jedhan.
Then they answered and said before the king, Daniel of the children of the captivity of Judea, has not submitted to your decree; and three times in the day he makes his requests of his God.
14 Mootichi yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti akka malee gadde; Daaniʼelin baasuufis murteeffatee hamma biiftuun lixxutti waan dandaʼame hunda godhe.
Then the king, when he heard the saying, was much grieved for Daniel and he greatly exerted himself for Daniel to deliver him: and he exerted himself till evening to deliver him.
15 Ergasii jarri gareedhaan mootichatti dhiʼaatanii, “Yaa mootii, akka seera Meedeetii fi Faares akka seerri mootiin tokko baase yookaan ajajni inni kenne geeddaramuu hin dandeenye beeki” jedhaniin.
Then those men said to the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is that we must not change any decree of statue which the king shall make.
16 Kanaafuu mootichi ajaja kenne; isaanis Daaniʼelin fidanii boolla leencaatti darbatan. Mootichis Daaniʼeliin, “Waaqni kee kan ati yeroo hunda isa tajaajiltu si haa baraaru!” jedhe.
Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. But the king said to Daniel, Your God whom you serve continually, he will deliver you.
17 Dhagaanis fidamee afaan boolla leencaa sanatti qadaadame; mootichis akka wanni Daaniʼel irratti murtaaʼe sun hin geeddaramne chaappaa mallattoo qubeelaa isaatii fi kan qubeelaa qondaaltota isaa irratti chaappesse.
And they brought a stone, and put it on the mouth of the den; and the king sealed [it] with his ring, and with the ring of his nobles; that the case might not be altered with regard to Daniel.
18 Ergasiis mootichi gara masaraa mootummaa isaatti deebiʼee halkan guutuu utuu waa hin nyaatinii fi gammachuu hin argatin hirriba malee bule.
And the king departed to his house, and lay down fasting, and they brought him no food; and his sleep departed from him. But God shut the mouths of the lions, and they not molest Daniel.
19 Barii barraaqaanis mootichi kaʼee gara boolla leencaatti ariifate.
Then the king arose very early in the morning, and came in have to the den of lions.
20 Innis yommuu boolla sanatti dhiʼaatetti sagalee guddaadhaan, “Yaa Daaniʼel tajaajilaa Waaqa jiraataa, Waaqni ati yeroo hunda isa tajaajiltu sun leencota irraa si baraaruu dandaʼeeraa?” jedhee Daaniʼelin waame.
And when he drew near to the den, he cried with a loud voice, Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lion's mouth?
21 Daaniʼelis deebisee akkana jedhe; “Yaa mootii bara baraan jiraadhu!
And Daniel said to the king, O king, live for ever.
22 Waaqni koo ergamaa isaa ergee afaan leencotaa cufe. Sababii ani fuula isaa duratti qulqulluu taʼee argameef isaan homaa na hin goone. Yaa Mootii ani fuula kee durattis yakka tokko illee hin hojjenneetii.”
My God has sent his angel, and stopped the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me: for uprightness was found in me before him; and moreover before you, O king, I have committed no trespass.
23 Mootichis akka malee gammadee akka Daaniʼel boolla keessaa baafamu ajaje. Daaniʼelis waan Waaqa isaa amanatee tureef yommuu boollaa baʼetti madaan tokko iyyuu isa irratti hin argamne.
Then the king was very glad for him, and he commanded to bring Daniel out of the den. So Daniel was brought out of the den, and there was found no hurt upon him, because he believed in his God.
24 Warri sobaan Daaniʼelin himatanis ajaja mootichaatiin niitotaa fi ijoollee isaanii wajjin fidamanii boolla leencaatti darbataman. Utuu isaan boolla sana keessa lafa hin gaʼin leenconni isaan cicciratanii lafee isaanii hunda caccabsan.
And the king commanded, and they brought the men that had accused Daniel, and they were cast into the den of lions, they, and their children, and their wives: and they reached not the bottom of the den before the lions had the mastery of them, and utterly broke to pieces all their bones.
25 Kana irratti Daariyoos Mootichi uummata, sabootaa fi namoota guutummaa biyyattii keessatti afaan garaa garaa dubbatan hundatti akkana jedhee barreesse: “Nagaan isiniif haa baayʼatu!
Then king Darius wrote to all nations, tribes, [and] languages, who dwell in all the earth, [saying], Peace be multiplied to you.
26 “Ani akka namni kutaa mootummaa kootii hunda keessatti Waaqa Daaniʼel sodaatuu fi akka ulfina isaaf kennu labsii kana baaseera.
This decree has been set forth by me in every dominion of my kingdom, that [men] tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living and eternal God, and his kingdom shall not be destroyed, and his dominion is for ever.
27 Inni ni baraara; ni oolchas;
He helps and delivers, and works signs and wonders in the heaven and on the earth, who has rescued Daniel from the power of the lions.
28 Kanaafuu bara Daariyoosii fi bara mootummaa Qiiros namicha Faares sanaa keessa Daaniʼelitti jireenyi ni tole.
And Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
