Daniel 3
1 Nebukadnessari ọba gbẹ́ ère wúrà kan, èyí tí gíga rẹ̀ tó àádọ́rùn-ún ìgbọ̀nwọ́, tí fífẹ̀ rẹ̀ tó ẹsẹ̀ mẹ́fà, ó sì gbé e kalẹ̀ ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ Dura ní agbègbè ìjọba Babeli.
Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose hight [was] sixty cubits, [and] the breadth of it six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.
2 Nígbà náà ni ọba ránṣẹ́ pe àwọn ọmọ-aládé, àwọn olóyè, àwọn ìgbìmọ̀, àwọn baálẹ̀, àwọn balógun, àwọn onídàájọ́, àwọn olùtọ́jú ìṣúra àti gbogbo àwọn olórí agbègbè ìjọba láti wá sí ibi ìyàsímímọ́ ère tí ọba Nebukadnessari gbé kalẹ̀.
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to convene the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sherifs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
3 Nígbà náà ni àwọn ọmọ-aládé, àwọn olóyè, àwọn onímọ̀ràn, àwọn olùtọ́jú ìṣúra, àwọn onídàájọ́ àti gbogbo àwọn olórí agbègbè ìjọba, wọn péjọ láti ya ère tí Nebukadnessari ọba gbé kalẹ̀ sí mímọ́, gbogbo wọn sì dúró síwájú u rẹ̀.
Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sherifs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were assembled to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
4 Nígbà náà ni a kéde kígbe sókè wí pé, “Ohun tí a paláṣẹ fún un yín láti ṣe nìyìí, gbogbo ènìyàn, orílẹ̀-èdè àti èdè gbogbo.
Then a herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,
5 Bí ẹ̀yin bá ti gbọ́ ohùn ìwo, fèrè, dùùrù, ohun èlò, kí ẹ wólẹ̀ fún ère wúrà tí ọba Nebukadnessari gbé kalẹ̀.
[That] at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up.
6 Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá kọ̀ tí kò bá wólẹ̀, kí ó fi orí balẹ̀, kí a ju ẹni náà sínú iná ìléru.”
And whoever shall not fall down and worship shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
7 Nítorí náà, bí wọ́n ṣe gbọ́ ohùn ìwo, fèrè, dùùrù, ohun èlò orin olókùn, ìpè àti onírúurú orin, gbogbo ènìyàn, orílẹ̀-èdè, àti èdè gbogbo wólẹ̀, wọ́n sì fi orí balẹ̀ fún ère wúrà tí ọba Nebukadnessari gbé kalẹ̀.
Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down [and] worshiped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
8 Ní àsìkò yìí ni àwọn awòràwọ̀ bọ́ síwájú, wọ́n sì fi ẹ̀sùn kan àwọn ará Juda.
Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews.
9 Wọ́n sọ fún ọba Nebukadnessari pé, “Kí ọba kí ó pẹ́.
They spoke and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever.
10 Ìwọ ọba ti pàṣẹ pé, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ti gbọ́ ohùn ìwo, fèrè, dùùrù, ohun èlò orin olókùn, ìpè àti onírúurú orin gbọdọ̀ wólẹ̀ kí ó fi orí balẹ̀ fún ère wúrà
Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image:
11 àti ẹnikẹ́ni tí kò bá wólẹ̀, kí ó foríbalẹ̀, a ó sọ irú ẹni bẹ́ẹ̀ sínú iná ìléru.
And whoever shall not fall down and worship, [that] he shall be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Juda kan wà, àwọn tí a yàn láti ṣe olórí agbègbè ìjọba Babeli: Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego, wọ́n ò ka ìwọ ọba sí. Wọn kò sin òrìṣà rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò fi orí balẹ̀ fún ère wúrà tí ìwọ gbé kalẹ̀.”
There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
13 Nígbà náà ni Nebukadnessari pàṣẹ ní ìrunú àti ìbínú pé kí a mú Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego wá, wọ́n sì mú wọn wá síwájú ọba.
Then Nebuchadnezzar in [his] rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then they brought these men before the king.
14 Nebukadnessari wí fún wọn wí pé, “Ṣé òtítọ́ ni, Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego wí pé ẹ̀yin kò sin òrìṣà mi àti pé ẹ̀yin kò fi orí balẹ̀ fún ère wúrà tí èmi gbé kalẹ̀.
Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said to them, [Is it] true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, do ye not serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?
15 Ní ìsinsin yìí, tí ẹ̀yin bá ti gbọ́ ohùn ìwo, fèrè, dùùrù, ohun èlò orin olókùn, ìpè àti onírúurú orin, bí ẹ̀yin bá ṣetán láti wólẹ̀ kí ẹ̀yin fi orí balẹ̀ fún ère tí mo gbé kalẹ̀ ó dára. Ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ̀yìn bá kọ̀ láti sìn ín, lójúkan náà ni a ó gbé e yín jù sínú iná ìléru. Ǹjẹ́, ta ni Ọlọ́run náà tí yóò gbà yín kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi?”
Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; [well]: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who [is] that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?
16 Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego dá ọba lóhùn wí pé, “Nebukadnessari, kì í ṣe fún wa láti gba ara wa sílẹ̀ níwájú u rẹ nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ yìí.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we [are] not careful to answer thee in this matter.
17 Bí ẹ̀yin bá jù wá sínú iná ìléru, Ọlọ́run tí àwa ń sìn lágbára láti gbà wá kúrò nínú rẹ̀, yóò sì gbà wá lọ́wọ́ ọ̀ rẹ, ìwọ ọba.
If it is [so], our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver [us] out of thy hand, O king.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n tí kò bá rí bẹ́ẹ̀, a fẹ́ kí ìwọ ọba mọ̀ dájú wí pé àwa kò ní sin òrìṣà rẹ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a kò ní fi orí balẹ̀ fún ère wúrà tí ìwọ gbé kalẹ̀.”
But if not, be it known to thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
19 Nígbà náà ni Nebukadnessari bínú gidigidi sí Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego, ojú u rẹ̀ sì yípadà, ó sì pàṣẹ pé, kí wọn dá iná ìléru náà kí ó gbóná ní ìlọ́po méje ju èyí tí wọn ń dá tẹ́lẹ̀,
Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: [therefore] he spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was wont to be heated.
20 ó sì pàṣẹ fún àwọn alágbára nínú ogun rẹ̀ pé, kí wọ́n de Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego, kí wọn sì jù wọ́n sínú iná ìléru.
And he commanded the most mighty men that [were] in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, [and] to cast [them] into the burning fiery furnace.
21 Nígbà náà ni a dè wọ́n pẹ̀lú àwọ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọn, ṣòkòtò, ìbòrí àti àwọn aṣọ mìíràn, a sì jù wọ́n sínú iná ìléru.
Then these men were bound in their coats, their hose, and their hats, and their [other] garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
22 Nítorí bí àṣẹ ọba ṣe le tó, tí iná ìléru náà sì gbóná, ọwọ́ iná pa àwọn ọmọ-ogun tí wọ́n mú Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego lọ.
Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire killed those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.
23 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta náà Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego ṣubú lulẹ̀ sínú iná ìléru náà pẹ̀lú bí a ṣe dè wọ́n.
And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
24 Nígbà náà ni ó ya Nebukadnessari ọba lẹ́nu, ó sì yára dìde dúró, ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn ìgbìmọ̀ rẹ̀ pé, “Ṣe bí àwọn mẹ́ta ni a gbé jù sínú iná?” Wọ́n wí pé, “Òtítọ́ ni ọba.”
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, [and] spoke, and said to his counselors, Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said to the king, True, O king.
25 Ó sì wí pé, “Wò ó! Mo rí àwọn mẹ́rin tí a kò dè tí wọ́n ń rìn ká nínú iná, ẹni kẹrin dàbí ọmọ ọlọ́run.”
He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt: and the form of the fourth is like the son of God.
26 Nígbà náà, ni Nebukadnessari dé ẹnu-ọ̀nà iná ìléru, ó sì kígbe pé, “Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego, ìránṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo, ẹ jáde, ẹ wá níbi!” Nígbà náà ni Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego jáde láti inú iná.
Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, [and] spoke, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come [hither]. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, came forth from the midst of the fire.
27 Àwọn ọmọ-aládé, ìjòyè, baálẹ̀, àwọn ìgbìmọ̀ ọba péjọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọ wọn. Wọ́n rí i wí pé iná kò ní agbára lára wọn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò jó wọn lára, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni irun orí wọn kò jóná, àwọ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọn kò jóná, òórùn iná kò rùn ní ara wọn rárá.
And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king's counselors, being assembled, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was a hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor had the smell of fire passed upon them.
28 Nígbà náà, ni Nebukadnessari sọ wí pé, “Ìbùkún ni fún Ọlọ́run Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego, ẹni tí ó rán angẹli rẹ̀ láti gba àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé e, wọn kọ àṣẹ ọba, dípò èyí, wọ́n fi ara wọn lélẹ̀ ju kí wọn sìn tàbí foríbalẹ̀ fún ọlọ́run mìíràn yàtọ̀ sí Ọlọ́run wọn.
[Then] Nebuchadnezzar spoke, and said, Blessed [be] the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.
29 Nítorí náà, mo pa àṣẹ pé, ẹnikẹ́ni, orílẹ̀-èdè tàbí èdè kan tí ó bá sọ ọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí Ọlọ́run Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego kí a gé wọn sí wẹ́wẹ́ kí a sì sọ ilé e wọn di ààtàn; nítorí kò sí ọlọ́run mìíràn tí ó lè gba ènìyàn bí irú èyí.”
Therefore I make a decree, that every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other god that can deliver after this sort.
30 Nígbà náà ni ọba gbé Ṣadraki, Meṣaki àti Abednego ga ní gbogbo agbègbè ìjọba Babeli.
Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, in the province of Babylon.
