Tsopano inu mfumu khazikitsani lamulo limeneli ndipo musindikizepo dzina lanu kuti lisasinthike monga mwa malamulo a Amedi ndi Aperezi, amene sasinthidwa.”
9 Saka Mambo Dhariasi akanyora chirevo.

Ndipo anthu awa anapita pamodzi ndi kukapeza Danieli akupemphera ndi kupempha Mulungu wake kuti amuthandize.
12 Saka vakaenda kuna mambo vakataura naye pamusoro pechirevo chake choushe vachiti, “Ko, hamuna kuzivisa here chirevo chokuti pakati pamazuva makumi matatu anotevera, ani naani anonyengetera kuna mwari kana munhu upi kunze kwokwamuri, imi mambo, achakandwa mugomba reshumba?” Mambo akapindura akati, “Chirevo chakadaro chiripo, chinoenderana nomurayiro wavaMedhia navaPezhia, usingagoni kushandurwa.”
Kotero iwo anapita kwa mfumu ndipo anayankhula naye za lamulo lake kuti, “Kodi simunasindikize lamulo lakuti pa masiku makumi atatu otsatirawa aliyense amene apemphera kwa mulungu wina aliyense kapena kwa munthu kupatula kwa inu mfumu, adzaponyedwa mʼdzenje la mikango?” Mfumu inayankha kuti, “Lamulo lilipobe monga mwa malamulo a Amedi ndi Aperezi, amene sangathe kusinthika.”
13 Ipapo vakati kuna mambo, “Dhanieri, mumwe wavakatapwa vakabva Judha, haakuteererei, imi mambo, kana kuchirevo chamakatema norunyoro rwenyu. Achiri kunyengetera katatu pazuva.”
Kenaka iwo anati kwa mfumu, “Danieli, amene ndi mmodzi mwa akapolo ochokera ku Yuda, sakulabadira inu mfumu, kapena lamulo limene munasindikizapo dzina lanu lija. Iye akupempherabe katatu pa tsiku.”
14 Mambo akati anzwa izvi, akatambudzika zvikuru; akanga achida kurwira Dhanieri uye akaedza nzira dzose dzokumuponesa kusvikira kwadoka.
Mfumu itamva izi, inavutika kwambiri mu mtima mwake. Iyo inayesa kupeza njira yopulumutsira Danieli. Iyo inachita chotheka chilichonse kufikira kulowa kwa dzuwa kuti imupulumutse.

Ndipo anthuwo anapita pamodzi kwa mfumu ndipo anati kwa iye, “Kumbukirani, inu mfumu kuti monga mwa lamulo la Amedi ndi Aperezi, palibe chimene mfumu inalamulira kapena kukhazikitsa chimasinthidwa.”
16 Saka mambo akarayira, akauyisa Dhanieri ndokumukanda mugomba reshumba. Mambo akati kuna Dhanieri, “Mwari wako, waunoramba uchishumira, ngaakurwire!”
Choncho mfumu inalamula, ndipo anabwera naye Danieli ndi kukamuponya mʼdzenje la mikango. Mfumu inati kwa Danieli, “Mulungu wako amene umutumikira nthawi zonse, akupulumutse!”
17 Vakauyisa ibwe vakariisa pamusoro pomuromo wegomba, mambo ndokurisimbisa nechisimbiso chake uye nezvisimbiso zvamakurukota ake, kuitira kuti mamiriro aDhanieri arege kushandurwa.
Anatenga mwala natseka pa khoma pa dzenje la mikango, ndipo mfumu inadindapo chizindikiro chake ndi cha nduna zake kuti wina asasinthepo kanthu pa za Danieli.
18 Ipapo mambo akadzokera kumuzinda wake akavata usiku hwose asina kudya uye hakuna chinhu chipi chaivaraidza chakauyiswa kwaari. Uye akashayiwa hope.
Kenaka mfumu inabwerera ku nyumba yake ndipo inakhala usiku wonse osadya kanthu, osalola chosangalatsa chilichonse. Ndipo sinagone tulo.
19 Panguva dzamambakwedza, mambo akamuka akamhanyira kugomba reshumba.
Mʼbandakucha, mfumu inanyamuka ndi kufulumira kupita ku dzenje la mikango lija.
20 Akati aswedera pagomba, akadanidzira kuna Dhanieri nenzwi rokuchema achiti, “Dhanieri, iwe muranda waMwari mupenyu, Mwari wako, iye waunoshumira nguva dzose, agona kukurwira pamuromo weshumba here?”
Itayandikira pa dzenjelo, inayitana Danieli moonetsa nkhawa, “Danieli, mtumiki wa Mulungu wa moyo! Kodi Mulungu wako, amene umutumikira nthawi zonse, wakulanditsa ku mikango?”
21 Dhanieri akapindura akati, “Imi mambo, raramai nokusingaperi!
Danieli anayankha kuti, “Inu mfumu mukhale ndi moyo wautali!
22 Mwari wangu akatuma mutumwa wake, akadzivira miromo yeshumba. Hadzina kundikuvadza, nokuti ndakawanikwa ndisina mhosva pamberi pake. Uye handina kumboita chinhu chakaipa pamberi penyu, imi mambo.”
Mulungu wanga anatumiza mngelo wake, ndipo anatseka pakamwa pa mikango. Iyo sinandivulaze chifukwa Mulungu anaona kuti ndine wosalakwa ndi kutinso sindinakulakwireni inu mfumu.”
23 Mambo akafara zvikuru akarayira kuti Dhanieri abudiswe mugomba. Uye Dhanieri akati abudiswa mugomba, hakuna vanga rakawanikwa paari, nokuti akanga avimba naMwari wake.
Mfumu inali ndi chimwemwe chopambana ndipo inalamulira kuti amutulutse Danieli mʼdzenjemo. Ndipo atamutulutsa Danieli mʼdzenjemo, sanapezeke ndi chilonda chilichonse pa thupi lake, chifukwa iye anadalira Mulungu wake.
24 Mambo akarayira kuti varume vakanga vapomera Dhanieri varwiswe, uye kuti vakandwe mugomba reshumba, pamwe chete navakadzi vavo navana vavo. Uye vasati vasvika pasi pegomba, shumba dzakavakurira dzikapwanya mapfupa avo ose.
Mwa lamulo la mfumu, anthu onse amene ananeneza Danieli aja anagwidwa ndi kukaponyedwa mʼdzenje la mikango, pamodzi ndi akazi awo ndi ana awo. Ndipo asanafike pansi pa dzenjelo, mikango inawawakha ndi mphamvu ndi kuteketa mafupa awo onse.
25 Ipapo Mambo Dhariasi akanyorera vanhu vose, nendudzi dzose navanhu vemitauro yose panyika yose achiti: “Mubudirire zvikuru kwazvo!
Kenaka mfumu Dariyo inalembera anthu a mitundu yonse, ndi anthu a ziyankhulo zosiyanasiyana a mʼdziko lonse kuti, “Mtendere uchuluke pakati panu!
26 “Ndinotema chirevo chokuti munzvimbo dzose dzoumambo hwangu vanhu vanofanira kutya Mwari waDhanieri uye vamuremekedze. “Nokuti ndiye Mwari mupenyu, anogara nokusingaperi; umambo hwake hahungaparadzwi, ushe hwake hahutongogumi.
“Ndikukhazikitsa lamulo kuti paliponse mʼdziko langa anthu ayenera kuopa ndi kuchitira ulemu Mulungu wa Danieli.
27 Anorwira uye anoponesa; anoita zviratidzo nezvishamiso mudenga napamusoro penyika. Akarwira Dhanieri pasimba reshumba.”
Iye amalanditsa ndipo amapulumutsa,
