2 Pea naʻe tuku ʻe he ʻEiki ʻa Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki hono nima, mo e ngaahi ipu niʻihi ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻOtua; ʻaia naʻa ne ʻave ki he fonua, ko Saina, ki he fale ʻo hono ʻotua; pea ne ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ipu ki he feleoko ʻo hono ʻotua.
And he gave [the] Lord in hand his Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah and some of [the] end of [the] vessels of [the] house of God and he brought them [the] land of Shinar [the] house of god his and the vessels he brought [the] house of [the] treasury of god his.
3 Pea naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi kia ʻAsipinasi, ko e ʻeiki ʻo ʻene kau talifekau, ke ne ʻomai ha niʻihi ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea mo e hako ʻoe tuʻi, pea mo e ngaahi houʻeiki:
And he said the king to Ashpenaz [the] chief of officials his to bring some of [the] people of Israel and some of [the] offspring of royalty and some of the nobles.
4 Ko e fānau taʻehaʻila kae matamatalelei, pea poto ʻi he ngaahi poto kotoa pē, pea ʻiloʻi ʻae ngaahi ʻilo, mo poto ʻi he ngaahi poto ʻoku ako, pea mo kinautolu naʻe maʻu ʻae faʻa fai ʻiate kinautolu ke tuʻu ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi, ke ako kiate kinautolu ʻae poto mo e lea ʻae kau Kalitia.

5 Pea ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻe he tuʻi ki ai ʻae tufakanga meʻakai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, ʻi he meʻakai ʻae tuʻi, pea mo e uaine ʻaia naʻa ne inu: ʻo tauhi pehē ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu, koeʻuhi ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo ia ke nau tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi.
And he assigned to them the king [the] matter of a day in day its some of [the] deli-caci[es] of the king and some of [the] wine of drink his and to bring up them years three and from [the] end their they will stand before the king.
6 Pea naʻe ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi he fānau ʻo Siuta, ʻa Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia.
And he was among them from [the] people of Judah Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah.
7 ʻAkinautolu naʻe ʻai ki ʻai ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau ʻae ngaahi hingoa, he naʻa ne ʻai kia Taniela ʻae hingoa ko Pelitisasa, pea kia Hanania ko Seteleki, pea kia Misaeli ko Mesake, pea kia ʻAsalia, ko ʻApetiniko.
And he assigned to them [the] chief of the officials names and he assigned to Daniel Belteshazzar and to Hananiah Shadrach and to Mishael Meshach and to Azariah Abed-nego.
8 Ka naʻe fakapapau ʻa Taniela ʻi hono loto, ʻe ʻikai te ne fakaʻuliʻi ʻe ia ia, ʻaki ʻae tufakanga meʻakai ʻoe tuʻi pe ko e uaine naʻa ne inu: ko ia naʻa ne kole ki he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ke ʻoua naʻa ne fakaʻuliʻi ʻe ia ia.
And he set Daniel on heart his that not he defiled himself with [the] delicaci[es] of the king and with [the] wine of drink his and he requested from [the] chief of the officials that not he will defile himself.
9 Pea ko eni, kuo fakatupu ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi he loto ʻoe ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ʻae lelei mo e ʻofa mamahi kia Taniela.
And he gave God Daniel favor and compassion before [the] chief of the officials.
10 Pea ne pehē ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau kia Taniela, “ʻOku ou manavahē ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻaia kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻa hoʻomou meʻakai, mo hoʻomou inu, ko e hā ka mamata ai ia ki homou mata ʻoku matamata kovi ʻi he fānau, ʻaia ʻoku mou faʻahinga ki ai? Ka pehē te mou fakatuputāmaki ke tō ki hoku ʻulu mei he tuʻi.”
And he said [the] chief of the officials to Daniel [am] fearing I master my the king who he has assigned food your and drink your that why? will he see faces your looking thin more than the youths who [are] about age your and you will endanger head my to the king.
11 Pea ne pehē ʻe Taniela kia Melasa, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ke pule kia Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia,
And he said Daniel to the guardian whom he had assigned [the] chief of the officials over Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah.
12 ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke ʻahiʻahi ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu, pea ke nau tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae sepo, ke mau kai, mo e vai ke mau inu.
Put to [the] test please servants your days ten so let people give to us some of the vegetables so we may eat and water so we may drink.
13 Pea tuku ke vakai ki homau mata ʻi ho ʻao, pea mo e mata ʻoe fānau ʻoku kai ʻae tufakanga ʻoe meʻakai ʻae tuʻi: pea hangē ko hoʻo mamata, fai ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki.”
And they may appear before you appearance our and [the] appearance of the youths who are eating [the] delicaci[es] of the king and just as you will see deal with servants your.
14 Pea pehē, naʻa ne tokanga kiate kinautolu ʻi he meʻa ni, pea ne ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu.
And he listened to them to the thing this and he put to [the] test them days ten.
15 Pea ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe ʻaho ʻe hongofulu, naʻe matamatalelei hake mo sino ʻa honau mata ʻi he fānau kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe kai ʻae tufakanga ʻoe meʻakai ʻae tuʻi.
And from [the] end of days ten it appeared appearance their good and fat of flesh more than all the youths who were eating [the] delicaci[es] of the king.
16 Ko ia naʻe ʻave ʻe Melasa ʻa ʻenau tufakanga meʻakai, pea mo e uaine naʻe tuku ke nau inu, pea ne tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae sepo.
And he was the guardian taking away delicaci[es] their and [the] wine of drink their and giving to them vegetables.
17 Pea ko e kau talavou ʻe toko fā ni, naʻe foaki ʻe he ʻOtua kiate kinautolu ʻae ʻilo mo e mafai, ʻi he ngaahi ʻiloʻilo kotoa pē mo e poto, pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Taniela ʻae ʻiloʻi ʻoe ngaahi meʻa hā mai kotoa pē, mo e ngaahi misi.
And the youths these [the] four of them he gave to them God knowledge and insight in all writing and wisdom and Daniel he understood every vision and dreams.
18 Pea ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe ngaahi ʻaho naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi, ke ne ʻomi ki loto ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻomi ki loto ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau talifekau, ki he ʻao ʻo Nepukanesa.

19 Pea naʻe lea ʻae tuʻi mo kinautolu; pea ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē, naʻe ʻikai ke ʻilo ha niʻihi ʻoku tatau mo Taniela, mo Hanania, mo Misaeli, mo ʻAsalia: ko ia naʻe tuʻu ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Nepukanesa.
And he spoke with them the king and not he was found any of all of them like Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah and they stood before the king.
20 Pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoe poto, mo e ʻilo ʻaia naʻe fehuʻi ai ʻae tuʻi kiate kinautolu, naʻa ne ʻiloʻi ʻakinautolu, ne nau lelei hake ʻo liunga hongofulu, ʻi he kau fiemana, mo e kau ʻasitolōnoma kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe ʻi hono puleʻanga kotoa pē.
