< Dhanieri 2 >

1 Mugore rechipiri rokutonga kwake, Nebhukadhinezari akarota hope; pfungwa dzake dzikashushikana uye akashaya hope.
Chaka chachiwiri cha ulamuliro wake, Nebukadinezara analota maloto; anavutika mu mtima mwake ndipo analephera kugona.
2 Saka mambo akarayira nʼanga, navanofarira mazango, navaroyi, navafemberi vezvenyeredzi kuti vamuudze zvaakanga arota. Vakati vapinda vakamira pamberi pamambo,
Tsono mfumu inayitana amatsenga, owombeza, amawula ndi oyangʼana nyenyezi kuti amufotokozere zomwe analota. Pamene iwo analowa ndi kuyima pamaso pa mfumu,
3 iye akati kwavari, “Ndakarota hope dzinonditambudza zvino ndinoda kuziva zvadzinoreva.”
mfumuyo inawawuza kuti, “Ndalota loto lomwe likundisautsa ndipo ndikufuna kudziwa tanthauzo lake.”
4 Ipapo vachenjeri vezvenyeredzi vakapindura mambo norurimi rwavaAramu vachiti, “Haiwa mambo, raramai nokusingaperi! Udzai varanda venyu kurota kwenyu, isu tigodudzira.”
Pamenepa alawuli anati kwa mfumu mʼChiaramu, “Mukhale ndi moyo wautali mfumu! Tiwuzeni ife atumiki anu zimene mwalota, ndipo tidzakuwuzani tanthauzo lake.”
5 Mambo akapindura vachenjeri vezvenyeredzi achiti, “Izvi ndizvo zvandafunga chaizvoizvo: Kana imi mukasandiudza kuti kurota kwangu kwaiva kupi uye mukadudzira, ndichaita kuti mugurwe-gurwe uye dzimba dzenyu dziitwe mirwi yamarara.
Mfumu inayankha alawuliwo kuti, “Zimene ndatsimikiza kuchita ndi izi: Ngati inu simundifotokozera zimene ndalota ndi tanthauzo lake, mudzadulidwa nthulinthuli ndipo nyumba zanu ndidzazisandutsa bwinja.
6 Asi kana mukandiudza zvandakarota mukazvidudzira, muchagamuchira zvipo nemibayiro nokukudzwa kukuru zvinobva kwandiri. Saka ndiudzei chiroto mugochidudzira kwandiri.”
Koma ngati mundiwuza zimene ndalota ndi tanthauzo lake, ndidzakupatsani mphatso ndi mphotho ndi ulemu waukulu. Choncho mundiwuze zimene ndalota ndi tanthauzo lake.”
7 Ivo vakapindurazve vachiti, “Mambo ngaaudze varanda vake chiroto, uye isu tichachidudzira.”
Iwo anayankhanso kachiwiri kuti, “Mfumu iwuze atumiki ake chimene yalota, ndipo ife tidzatanthauzira.”
8 Ipapo mambo akapindura akati, “Ndinoziva kwazvo kuti imi munongoda kuwedzera nguva, nokuti munoziva kuti izvi ndizvo zvandatema:
Ndipo mfumu inayankha kuti, “Ine ndikudziwa kuti mukungozengereza kufuna kutaya nthawi chabe chifukwa mukuzindikira kuti izi ndi zimene ndatsimikiza kuchita.
9 Kana musingandiudzi zvandarota, panongova nechirango chimwe chete. Imi makarangana kundiudza zvinhu zvinonyengera uye zvakaipa, muchifunga kuti zvinhu zvichashanduka. Saka zvino, ndiudzei zvandakarota, ndigoziva kuti muchagona kundidudzira chiroto.”
Ngati simundiwuza zimene ndalota, chilango chake ndi chimodzi. Inu mwagwirizana kuti mundiwuze ine bodza ndi chinyengo ndi kuyembekeza kuti ine ndisintha. Tsono mundiwuze zimene ndalota, ndipo ine ndidzadziwa kuti mukhoza kunditanthauzira.”
10 Vachenjeri vezvenyeredzi vakapindura mambo vachiti, “Hakuna munhu panyika angagona kuita zvinodiwa namambo! Hakuna mambo, kunyange mukuru kana ane simba, akambotsvaka chinhu chakadai kunʼanga ipi zvayo kana vaya vanoita zvamazango kana vachenjeri vezvenyeredzi.
Alawuli anayankha mfumu kuti, “Palibe munthu pa dziko lapansi amene akhoza kuchita chimene mfumu ikufunsa! Palibe mfumu, kaya yayikulu kapena yamphamvu bwanji imene inafunsapo amatsenga, owombeza kapena alawuli aliwonse zimenezi.
11 Zvinhu zvinodikanwa namambo zvakaoma kwazvo. Hakuna munhu angazvizivisa kuna mambo izvozvo kunze kwavamwari, uye vasingagari pakati pavanhu.”
Zimene mfumu yafunsa ndi zapatali. Palibe wina amene angathe kuwulula izi kwa mfumu kupatula milungu, ndipo sikhala pakati pa anthu.”
12 Izvi zvakaita kuti mambo ashatirwe zvikuru uye akava nehasha zvokuti akarayira kuti vakachenjera vose veBhabhironi vaurayiwe.
Zimenezi zinapsetsa mtima mfumu ndipo inakwiya kwambiri kotero inalamula kuti anzeru onse a ku Babuloni aphedwe.
13 Saka chirevo chakapiwa kuti vachenjeri vaurayiwe, uye varume vakatumwa kundotsvaka Dhanieri neshamwari dzake kuti vaurayiwewo.
Choncho lamulo linaperekedwa kuti anthu anzeru aphedwe, ndipo anatuma anthu kukafunafuna Danieli ndi anzake kuti iwonso aphedwe.
14 Arioki, mukuru wavarindi vamambo, akati abudisa kundouraya vachenjeri veBhabhironi, Dhanieri akataura kwaari nouchenjeri uye nokungwara.
Danieli anayankhula mwanzeru ndi mwaulemu kwa Ariyoki, mkulu wa asilikali olondera mfumu amene anatumidwa kukapha anthu anzeru a ku Babuloni.
15 Akabvunza muchinda wamambo achiti, “Seiko mambo akatema chirevo chakadai?” Arioki akatsanangurira Dhanieri nyaya yacho.
Danieli anafunsa Ariyoki kapitawo wa mfumu kuti, “Chifukwa chiyani mfumu yapereka lamulo lankhanza lotere?” Kenaka Ariyoki anafotokoza nkhaniyi kwa Danieli.
16 Nokudaro, Dhanieri akapinda kuna mambo akandokumbira nguva kwaari, kuitira kuti agomududzira chiroto chiya.
Danieli anapita mofulumira kwa mfumu ndipo anamupempha kuti amupatse nthawi kuti amuwuze zimene walota ndi tanthauzo lake.
17 Ipapo Dhanieri akadzokera kumba kwake akandotsanangurira nyaya yacho kushamwari dzake vanaHanania, Mishaeri naAzaria.
Kenaka Danieli anabwerera ku nyumba kwake ndi kukafotokozera anzake aja zimenezi: Hananiya, Misaeli ndi Azariya.
18 Akavakurudzira kuti vakumbire nyasha kubva kuna Mwari wokudenga pamusoro pechakavanzika ichi, kuitira kuti iye neshamwari dzake varege kuurayiwa pamwe chete navakachenjera veBhabhironi.
Danieli anadandaulira anzake kuti apemphe kwa Mulungu wakumwamba kuti awachitire chifundo ndi kumuwululira chinsinsi, kuti iye ndi anzakewo asanyongedwe pamodzi ndi anzeru ena onse a ku Babuloni.
19 Chakavanzika ichi chakazoratidzwa kuna Dhanieri usiku muchiratidzo. Ipapo Dhanieri akarumbidza Mwari wokudenga
Usiku Yehova anamuwululira Danieli chinsinsi chija mʼmasomphenya. Pamenepo Danieli anatamanda Mulungu wakumwamba,
20 akati: “Zita raMwari ngarirumbidzwe nokusingaperi-peri; uchenjeri nesimba ndezvake.
ndipo anati: “Litamandike dzina la Mulungu ku nthawi za nthawi; nzeru ndi mphamvu zonse ndi zake.
21 Anoshandura nguva nemwaka; ndiye anogadza madzimambo uye ndiye anoabvisa. Anopa uchenjeri kuna vakachenjera nezivo kuna vanonzvera.
Amasintha nthawi ndi nyengo; amakweza mafumu ndipo amawatsitsanso. Amapatsa nzeru kwa anzeru ndi chidziwitso kwa ozindikira zinthu.
22 Anozarura zvakadzika nezvakavanzika; anoziva zviri murima, uye chiedza chinogara maari.
Amavumbulutsa zinthu zozama ndi zobisika; amadziwa zimene zili mu mdima, ndipo kuwunika kumakhala ndi Iye.
23 Ndinokuvongai uye ndinokurumbidzai, imi Mwari wamadzibaba angu: Makandipa uchenjeri nesimba, makandizivisa zvatakakumbira kwamuri, makazivisa kwatiri kurota kwamambo.”
Ndikuyamika ndi kutamanda Inu Mulungu wa makolo anga: mwandipatsa nzeru ndi mphamvu, mwandiwululira zomwe tinakupemphani, mwatiwululira maloto a mfumu.”
24 Ipapo Dhanieri akaenda kuna Arioki, uya akanga agadzwa namambo kuti auraye varume vakachenjera veBhabhironi, akati kwaari, “Musauraya vachenjeri veBhabhironi. Ndiendesei kuna mambo, ndinomududzira zvaakarota.”
Motero Danieli anapita kwa Ariyoki, amene mfumu inamusankha kuti akaphe anthu anzeru a ku Babuloni, ndipo anati kwa iye, “Musaphe anthu anzeru a ku Babuloni. Ndiperekezeni kwa mfumu, ndipo ndidzayimasulira maloto ake.”
25 Arioki akaenda naDhanieri kuna mambo nokukurumidza uye akati kwaari, “Ndawana munhu pakati pavakatapwa vokwaJudha anogona kuudza mambo zvinoreva chiroto chavo.”
Ariyoki anapita naye Danieli kwa mfumu nthawi yomweyo ndipo anati, “Ndapeza munthu pakati pa akapolo ochokera ku Yuda amene akhoza kuwuza mfumu zimene maloto ake akutanthauza.”
26 Mambo akabvunza Dhanieri (iye ainziwo Bheriteshazari), “Iwe unogona here kundiudza zvandakaona pakurota uye ugozvidudzira?”
Mfumu inafunsa Danieli (wotchedwanso Belitesezara) kuti, “Kodi ukhoza kundiwuza zomwe ine ndinaona mʼmaloto anga ndi tanthauzo lake?”
27 Dhanieri akapindura akati, “Hakuna munhu akachenjera, kana wamazango, kana nʼanga kana mufemberi angagona kurondedzera kuna mambo chakavanzika chaanobvunza pamusoro pacho
Danieli anayankha kuti, “Palibe munthu wanzeru, wowombeza, wamatsenga kapena wamawula amene akhoza kufotokozera mfumu chinsinsi chimene mwafuna kudziwa,
28 asi kudenga kuna Mwari anozivisa zvakavanzika. Iye akaratidza Mambo Nebhukadhinezari zvichaitika mumazuva anouya. Kurota kwenyu nezviratidzo zvakaratidzwa mundangariro dzenyu muvete pamubhedha ndezvizvi:
koma kuli Mulungu kumwamba amene amawulula zinsinsi. Iye waonetsera mfumu Nebukadinezara zimene zidzachitika mʼmasiku akutsogolo. Maloto ndi masomphenya anu amene munawaona mukugona pa bedi lanu ndi awa:
29 “Pamakanga muvete ipapo, imi mambo, pfungwa dzenyu dzakaenda kuzvinhu zvichauya, uye muzivisi wezvakavanzika akakuratidzai zvichaitika.
“Mukugona pa bedi, inu Mfumu, maganizo anakufikirani a zinthu zakutsogolo, ndipo Yehova wowulula zinsinsi anakuonetserani zimene zidzachitika.
30 Asi ini chakavanzika ichi chakaziviswa kwandiri, kwete nokuda kwokuti ndine njere huru kupfuura vamwe vanhu vanorarama asi kuti imi mambo, mugoziva dudziro uye kuti mugonzwisisa zvakapinda mundangariro dzenyu.
Koma chinsinsi ichi chavumbulutsidwa kwa ine, si chifukwa chakuti ndili ndi nzeru zochuluka kuposa anthu ena onse, koma kuti mfumu mudziwe tanthauzo la maloto anu ndi kuti muzindikire maganizo amene anali mu mtima mwanu.
31 “Imi mambo, makatarira, uye ipapo pamberi penyu pakanga pamire chifananidzo, chakakura kwazvo, chaibwinya, chaityisa pakuonekwa kwacho.
“Inu mfumu, munaona chinthu chowumba chachikulu chimene chinayima pamaso panu. Chowumbachi chinali chonyezimira mʼmaonekedwe.
32 Musoro wechifananidzo ichi wakanga wakaitwa negoridhe rakanatswa, chipfuva chacho namaoko zvakanga zviri zvesirivha; dumbu racho nezvidyiro zvaiva zvendarira,
Mutu wa chowumbacho unali wagolide wabwino kwambiri. Chifuwa ndi manja ake zinali zasiliva. Mimba ndi ntchafu zake zinali zamkuwa.
33 makumbo acho akanga ari esimbi, tsoka dzacho dzaiti pamwe simbi pamwe ivhu.
Miyendo yake inali yachitsulo, mapazi ake anali achitsulo chosakaniza ndi dongo.
34 Muchakatarisa, makaona ibwe richivezwa, asi kwete namaoko omunhu. Rakarova chifananidzo patsoka dzacho dzesimbi nevhu ndokuzvipwanya.
Inu mukuona, mwala unagamuka, koma osati ndi manja a munthu. Unagwera fanolo pa mapazi ake achitsulo chosakaniza ndi dongo aja ndi kuwaphwanya.
35 Ipapo simbi, ivhu, ndarira, sirivha, negoridhe zvakaputsanyiwa nenguva imwe cheteyo zvikaita sehundi iri paburiro panguva yechirimo. Mhepo yakazvikukura pakasava nechinhu chakasara. Asi ibwe riya rakarova chifananidzo rakazova gomo guru rikazadza nyika yose.
Tsono chitsulo, dongo, mkuwa, siliva ndi golide zonse zinaphwanyika pamodzi ndikukhala tizidutswa towuluka ndi mphepo ngati mungu wa mowombera tirigu nthawi ya chilimwe. Zonse zinawuluka ndi mphepo osasiyako chilichonse. Koma mwala umene unagwera pa chowumba chija unasanduka phiri lalikulu ndi kudzaza dziko lonse lapansi.
36 “Uku ndiko kwaiva kurota kwenyu, uye zvino tichakududzira kwamuri mambo.
“Maloto aja ndi amenewa; tidzafotokoza tanthauzo lake kwa mfumu.
37 Imi mambo, muri mambo wamadzimambo. Mwari wokudenga akakupai ushe nesimba noukuru nokubwinya,
Inu mfumu, ndinu mfumu ya mafumu. Mulungu wakumwamba wakupatsani ufumu, ulamuliro ndi mphamvu ndi ulemerero;
38 akaisa marudzi avanhu mumaoko enyu nezvikara zvenyika neshiri dzedenga. Akakuitai mutongi pamusoro pazvo, pose pazvinogara. Ndimi musoro uya wegoridhe.
Iye anayika mʼmanja mwanu anthu ndi nyama zakuthengo ndi mbalame zamlengalenga. Kulikonse kumene zikhala, iye anakuyikani wolamulira wa zonse. Inu ndinu mutu wagolidewo.
39 “Shure kwenyu, humwe umambo huchamuka, hudiki kuno hwenyu. Umambo hwechitatu huchatevera, umambo hwendarira, huchatonga pamusoro penyika yose.
“Pambuyo pa inu, ufumu wina udzadzuka, wochepa mphamvu poyerekeza ndi wanuwu. Padzabweranso ufumu wachitatu, wamkuwa, udzalamulira dziko lonse lapansi.
40 Pakupedzisira kuchava noushe hwechina, hwakasimba sesimbi, nokuti simbi inopwanya uye inoputsanya zvinhu zvose, uye sokuputsanya kunoita simbi zvinhu, saizvozvo huchapwanya uye hugoputsanya humwe hwose.
Pomaliza, padzakhala ufumu wachinayi, wolimba ngati chitsulo popeza chitsulo chimaphwanya ndi kutikita chilichonse. Ndipo monga chitsulo chimaphwanya zinthu ndikuteketeratu, choncho udzawononga ndi kuphwanya maufumu ena onse.
41 Sezvamakaona kuti tsoka nezvigunwe zvakanga zvakavhenganiswa ivhu nesimbi, saizvozvo umambo uhu huchava hwakaganhurwa, asi huchava nerimwe simba resimbi mahuri, sezvamakaona simbi yakavhenganiswa nevhu.
Ndipo monga munaonera kuti mapazi ndi zala zake zinali za chitsulo chosakaniza ndi dongo, choncho uwu udzakhala ufumu wogawikana; komabe udzakhala ndi mphamvu zina zachitsulo zotikita.
42 Sezvo zvigunwe zvakanga zvakati pamwe simbi pamwe ivhu, saizvozvo umambo uhu huchava hwakasimba kuno rumwe rutivi uye husina kusimba kuno rumwe rutivi.
Monga zala zinali za chitsulo chosakaniza ndi dongo, choncho ufumu uwu udzakhala pangʼono wolimba ndi pangʼono wofowoka.
43 Uye sezvamakaona simbi yakavhenganiswa nevhu, saizvozvo vanhu vachavhengana uye havangarambi vakabatana, sezvinoita ivhu nesimbi zvakavhengana.
Ndipo monga munaona chitsulo chosakanizidwa ndi dongo, choncho anthu adzakhala wosakanizana ndipo sadzagwirizana, monga muja chitsulo sichingasakanizike ndi dongo.
44 “Mumazuva amadzimambo ayo, Mwari wokudenga achagadza ushe husingazoparadzwi, uye hahungazombosiyirwi vamwe vanhu. Huchapwanya ushe hwose hugohugumisa, asi ihwo huchagara nokusingaperi.
“Pa nthawi ya mafumu amenewo, Mulungu wakumwamba adzakhazikitsa ufumu umene sudzawonongedwa, kapenanso kuperekedwa kwa anthu ena. Udzawononga maufumu onse aja ndi kuwatheratu, koma iwo wokha udzakhalapobe mpaka muyaya.
45 Izvi ndizvo zvinoreva chiratidzo chedombo rakavezwa pagomo, asi kwete namaoko omunhu, dombo rakaputsa simbi, ndarira, ivhu, sirivha negoridhe zvikati mwarara. “Mwari mukuru akaratidza mambo zvichaitika pamazuva anouya. Kurota uku ndokwechokwadi uye nedudziro yacho ndeyechokwadi.”
Limeneli ndilo tanthauzo la masomphenya a mwala umene unagamuka pa phiri, koma osati ndi manja a anthu; mwala umene unaphwanya chitsulo, mkuwa, dongo, siliva ndi golide mʼtizidutswa. “Mulungu wamkulu wakuonetsani mfumu chimene chidzachitika kutsogolo. Malotowo ndi woona ndipo tanthauzo lake ndi lodalirika.”
46 Ipapo mambo Nebhukadhinezari akawira pasi nechiso chake pamberi paDhanieri akamuremekedza akarayira kuti apiwe chipo nezvinonhuhwira.
Pamenepo mfumu Nebukadinezara inadzigwetsa chafufumimba pamaso pa Danieli ndi kumupatsa ulemu. Ndipo inalamula kuti anthu onse amuthirire Danieli nsembe ndi kumufukizira lubani.
47 Mambo akati kuna Dhanieri, “Zvirokwazvo Mwari wako ndiMwari wavamwari naIshe wamadzimambo uye nomuzivisi wezvakavanzika, nokuti iwe wakagona kuzivisa chakavanzika ichi.”
Mfumu inati kwa Danieli, “Zoonadi, Mulungu wako ndi Mulungu wa milungu ndi Ambuye wa mafumu ndi wowulula zinsinsi, pakuti iwe wathadi kuwulula chinsinsi ichi.”
48 Ipapo mambo akaisa Dhanieri pachinzvimbo chakakwirira akapa zvipo zvizhinji kwaari. Akamuita mutongi pamusoro penyika yose yeBhabhironi akamuita mukuru wavachenjeri vose.
Ndipo mfumu inamukweza Danieli ndi kumupatsa mphatso zambiri. Anamuyika kuti akhale wolamulira chigawo chonse cha Babuloni ndi kutinso akhale woyangʼanira anthu ake onse anzeru.
49 Pamusoro paizvozvo, Dhanieri akakumbira mambo kuti agadze vanaShadhireki, Meshaki naAbhedhinego kuti vave vatariri vamatunhu eBhabhironi, iye Dhanieri pachake achiramba ari paruvazhe rwamambo.
Komanso, monga mwa pempho la Danieli, mfumu inayika Sadirake, Mesaki ndi Abedenego, kuti akhale oyangʼanira chigawo cha Babuloni, pamene Danieliyo ankakhazikika mʼbwalo la mfumu.
