< Daanyeel 3 >
1 Boqor Nebukadnesar wuxuu sameeyey ekaan dahab ah, oo jooggeedu lixdan dhudhun yahay, ballaadhkeeduna lix dhudhun yahay, oo wuxuu qotomiyey bannaankii Duuraa oo ku yaal gobolka Baabuloon.
King Nebuchadnezzar ordered his men to make a gold statue. It was (90 feet/27 meters) high and (9 feet/2.7 meters) wide. They set it up in the Dura plain in Babylon province.
2 Markaasaa Boqor Nebukadnesar wuxuu cid u diray amiirradii, iyo taliyayaashii, iyo saraakiishii, iyo xaakinnadii, iyo khasnajiyadii, iyo waaniyayaashii, iyo madaxdii boliiska, iyo kuwii gobollada xukumay oo dhan, inay u yimaadaan furitaanka ekaanta uu Boqor Nebukadnesar qotomiyey.
Then he sent messages to all the provincial governors, the district governors, the chief advisors, the counselors, the various judges, and all the other officials in the province. He told them to come to the dedication of the statue that he had set up.
3 Markaasaa amiirradii, iyo taliyayaashii, iyo saraakiishii, iyo xaakinnadii, iyo khasnajiyadii, iyo waaniyayaashii, iyo madaxdii boliiska, iyo kuwii gobollada xukumi jiray oo dhammu u wada yimaadeen furitaankii ekaantii Boqor Nebukadnesar qotomiyey, oo waxay hor istaageen ekaantii uu Nebukadnesar qotomiyey.
When they all arrived, they all stood in front of that statue.
4 Markaasaa naadiye aad u dhawaaqay, oo yidhi, Dadyowga, iyo quruumaha, iyo kuwa kala afka ahow, waxaa laydinku amray,
Then an announcer shouted, “You people who come from many countries and many people-groups and [who speak many] languages, listen to what the king has commanded!
5 in markii aad maqashaan codka buunka, iyo biibiilaha, iyo kataaradda, iyo shareeradda, iyo kiraarka, iyo cayn kasta oo muusiko ah, aad hoos u dhacdaan oo u sujuuddaan ekaanta dahabka ah oo Boqor Nebukadnesar qotomiyey,
When you hear the sounds made by the trumpets, the flutes, the guitars, the harps, the wind instruments, and all the other musical instruments, bow down to worship King Nebuchadnezzar’s gold statue.
6 oo mid kasta oo aan hoos u dhicin oo aan u sujuudin, isla saacaddiiba waxaa lagu dhex tuuri doonaa foorno dab ah oo ololaysa.
Anyone who refuses to do that will be thrown into a blazing furnace!”
7 Haddaba markii dadkii oo dhammu maqleen codkii buunka, iyo biibiilaha, iyo kataaradda, iyo shareeradda, iyo kiraarka, iyo cayn kasta oo muusiko ah ayaa dadyowgii, iyo quruumihii, iyo kuwii kala afka ahaa oo dhammu hoos u dhaceen oo u sujuudeen ekaantii dahabka ahayd oo Boqor Nebukadnesar qotomiyey.
So when all those people who had gathered heard the sounds made by the musical instruments, they all bowed down to worship the statue.
8 Haddaba wakhtigaas kuwo reer Kaldayiin ah ayaa soo dhowaaday oo Yuhuuddii dacweeyey.
But some of the men who studied the stars went to the king.
9 Oo intay u jawaabeen bay ku yidhaahdeen Boqor Nebukadnesar, Boqorow, weligaaba noolow.
They reported to him, “We hope that you, O king, will live a long time!
10 Boqorow, amar baad ku bixisay in nin kastaaba markuu maqlo codka buunka, iyo biibiilaha, iyo kataaradda, iyo shareeradda, iyo kiraarka, iyo cayn kasta oo muusiko ah, uu hoos u dhaco oo u sujuudo ekaanta dahabka ah,
You decreed that all the officials [whom you had gathered] should bow down and worship the gold statue when they heard the sounds made by the musical instruments.
11 iyo in mid kasta oo aan hoos u dhicin oo aan u sujuudin, lagu dhex tuuri doono foorno dab ah oo ololaysa.
You also decreed that those who refused to do that would be thrown into a blazing furnace.
12 Waxaa jira kuwo Yuhuud ah oo aad u dooratay inay axwaalkii gobolkii Baabuloon u taliyaan, waana Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo; haddaba, Boqorow, nimankaasu dan kaama ay lahayn; iyagu uma adeegaan ilaahyadaada, umana sujuudaan ekaanta dahabka ah oo aad qotomisay.
Sir, there are some men from Judah whom you have appointed to be officials in Babylon province who have not obeyed your decree. Their names are Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. They have refused to worship your god and the gold statue that you have set up.”
13 Markaasaa Nebukadnesar intuu dhirfay oo aad u cadhooday ayuu amray in la keeno Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo. Markaasay nimankan soo hor taageen boqorkii.
Nebuchadnezzar became very angry. He commanded [his soldiers] to bring in Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. When they were brought to him,
14 Nebukadnesarna wuu u jawaabay oo ku yidhi iyagii, Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoow, Ma kas baad u yeesheen inaydnaan u adeegin ilaahayga ama aydnaan u sujuudin ekaantayda dahabka ah oo aan qotomiyey?
Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Is it true that you three men have refused to worship my gods or the gold statue that I have set up?
15 Haddaba haddaad diyaar tihiin in wakhtigii aad maqashaan codka buunka, iyo biibiilaha, iyo kataaradda, iyo shareeradda, iyo kiraarka, iyo cayn kasta oo muusiko ah, aad hoos u dhacdaan oo aad u sujuuddaan ekaanta aan sameeyey, hagaag, laakiinse haddaad u sujuudi weydaan, waxaa isla saacaddiiba laydinku dhex tuuri doonaa foorno dab ah oo ololaysa. Kolkaas waa ayo Ilaaha gacantayda idinka badbaadin doonaa?
[If that is true, ] I will give you one more chance. If you bow down to worship the statue that I have set up when you hear the sounds of the musical instruments, fine. But if you refuse, you will be thrown immediately into the blazing furnace. Then (what god will be able to rescue you from my power?/no god will be able to rescue you from my power!)” [RHQ]
16 Markaasaa Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo u jawaabeen boqorkii, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Nebukadnesarow, annagu uma baahnin inaannu kaaga jawaabno xaalkan.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied, “Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend our [actions] to you in this matter.
17 Haddaba hadday saas tahay, Ilaahayaga aannu u adeegnaa waa awoodaa inuu naga samatabbixiyo foornada dabka ah oo ololaysa; oo isagu waa naga samatabbixin doonaa gacantaada, Boqorow.
If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we worship is able to rescue us. Sir, he will rescue us from your power.
18 Laakiinse haddaanay ahayn, Boqorow, haddaba ogow, inaannan u adeegayn ilaahyadaada, ama aannan u sujuudayn ekaanta dahabka ah oo aad qotomisay.
But [even] if he does not [rescue us], you need to know that we will never worship your gods or the gold statue that you have set up.”
19 Markaasaa Nebukadnesar aad ugu cadhooday Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo, wejigiisiina waa beddelmay; kolkaasuu hadlay oo wuxuu ku amray in foornada laga sii kululeeyo toddoba jeer intii hore loo kululayn jiray.
Nebuchadnezzar was extremely angry. [His being very angry even] showed on his face. He commanded that the furnace should be made seven times as hot as usual.
20 Oo wuxuu ku amray niman xoog badan oo ciidankiisa ku jiray inay xidhxidhaan Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo, oo ay ku dhex tuuraan foornada dabka ah oo ololaysa.
[After that was done, ] he commanded some of the [very] strong men of his army to tie Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and [then] to throw them into the blazing furnace.
21 Markaasaa nimankii la xidhxidhay iyagoo qaba sirwaalladoodii, iyo khamiisyadoodii, iyo go'yaashoodii, iyo dharkoodii kaleba, oo waxaa lagu dhex tuuray foornadii dabka ahayd oo ololaysay.
So [the soldiers] tied them up and threw them into the furnace, while they were wearing their clothes.
22 Boqorka amarkiisu wuxuu ahaa degdeg, foornaduna aad iyo aad bay u kululayd, sidaas daraaddeed ololkii dabku wuxuu dilay nimankii waday Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo.
Because the fire had been made very hot because the king had very strongly ordered them to do that, the flames [leaped out and] killed the soldiers as they were throwing the men into the fire!
23 Saddexdii nin ee ahaa Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoona waxay iyagoo xidhxidhan ku dhex dheceen foornadii dabka ahayd oo ololaysay.
So Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego fell into the roaring flames.
24 Markaasaa Boqor Nebukadnesar yaabay, oo haddiiba kacay; oo intuu hadlay ayuu ku yidhi waaniyayaashiisii, Miyaynan saddex nin oo xidhxidhan dabka ku dhex ridin? Markaasay u jawaabeen oo waxay boqorkii ku yidhaahdeen, Taasu waa run, Boqorow.
But as Nebuchadnezzar was watching, he was amazed. He suddenly jumped up and shouted to his advisors, “Did we tie up three men and throw them into the flames, or not?” They replied, “Yes, O king, [we did].”
25 Kolkaasuu jawaabay oo yidhi, Bal eega, waxaan arkaa afar nin oo furan, oo dabka ku dhex socda, ee aan waxyeello gaadhin; oo midka afraad soojeedkiisu wuxuu u eg yahay mid ka mid ah wiilasha ilaahyada.
Nebuchadnezzar shouted, “[Look]! I see four men in the fire! They have no ropes on them, they are walking around, and [the flames] are not hurting them! And the fourth man looks like a divine being!”
26 Markaasaa Nebukadnesar wuxuu ag yimid foornadii dabka ahayd oo ololaysay afkeedii, oo intuu hadlay buu yidhi, Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoow, Ilaaha ugu Sarreeya addoommadiisow, soo baxa, oo halkan kaalaya. Markaasaa Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo dabkii ka soo dhex bexeen.
Nebuchadnezzar came closer to the opening of the flaming furnace, and he shouted, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, you who worship the Supreme God, come out of there! Come here!” So they stepped out of the fire.
27 Markaasaa amiirradii, iyo taliyayaashii, iyo saraakiishii, iyo boqorka waaniyayaashiisii, iyagoo isku urursan, waxay arkeen inaanu dabku ka adkaan nimankaas jidhkooda, ama aanu timahoodiina halow marin, ama aan sirwaalladoodii beddelmin, ama aan dadka urtiisii gaadhin.
Then all the king’s officials crowded around them. They saw that the flames had not harmed them. The flames had not [even] singed any of the hair on their heads or scorched any of their clothes! There was not [even] any smell of smoke on them!
28 Markaasaa Nebukadnesar hadlay oo wuxuu yidhi, Mahad waxaa leh Ilaaha Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo, oo u soo diray malaa'igtiisa, oo badbaadiyey addoommadiisa isaga isku halleeyey, oo beddelay hadalkii boqorka, oo jidhkooda bixiyey, inayan u adeegin, ama u sujuudin ilaah kale Ilaahooda mooyaane.
[Then] Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise the God whom Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego [worship]! He sent one of his angels to rescue these [three] men who worship him and trust in him. They ignored my command; they insisted that they would worship only their God, and were willing to die instead of worshiping any other god.
29 Sidaas daraaddeed waxaan amar ku bixinayaa in dad kasta, iyo quruun kasta, iyo kuwa kasta oo kala af ah, oo wax xun kaga hadla Ilaaha Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo, la googooyn doono, guryahoodana laga dhigi doono meel digo lagu tuulo, maxaa yeelay, ma jiro ilaah kale oo sidaas wax u badbaadin karaa.
Therefore, I am [now] making this decree: ‘If any people, from any country or people-group or any language group, criticize the God whom Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego worship, they will be cut in pieces and their houses [will be torn down and] made into a pile of rubble. There is no other god who can rescue people like this!’”
30 Markaasaa boqorkii Shadrag, iyo Meeshag, iyo Cabeednegoo derejo sare ku siiyey gobolkii Baabuloon.
Then the king gave Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego more important positions in Babylon province than they had before.
