¹Bebukadnezzar kumpipa, mite tengteng, namte leh paute, lei tengtenga tengte kiangah; na kiang uah lemna hihpunin om hen.

¹Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you.

²Tungnungpen Pathianin kei lama a bawl chiamtehnate leh thillamdangte etsak kei adingin hoih leh a kilawm hi.

²I thought it good to shew the signs and wonders that the high God hath wrought toward me.

³A chiamtehnate thupi hina mahmah e: a thillamdangte thilhihthei hina mahmah uh e: a gam khantawn gamahi a, a lalna a khang a khangin a om in.

³How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation.

⁴Kei Nebukadnezzar ka in sungah ka khawla, ka inpi sungah ka luna,

⁴I Nebuchadnezzar was at rest in mine house, and flourishing in my palace:

⁵Honlausak mang ka nei a; huan ka lupna tungah ngaihtuahnate leh ka lungtang mengmuhten honhihbuai uhi.

⁵I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me.

⁶Huaijiakin hilhchetna ka kianga a kithihsak ding un, Babulon mi pil tengteng ka maa pi ding thupiak ka bawlta hi.

⁶Therefore made I a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream.

⁷Huchiin mitkhialdawitawite, bummite, Kaldaimite leh asisanmite a hongpai ua: huan a ma uah ka mangka genta hi; himahleh a hilhchetna ka kiangah a kitheisak kei uh.

⁷Then came in the magicians, the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers: and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation thereof.

⁸A hihhangin a tawptawpin ka maah, Danialm a min ka pathian min dung juiin, Beltesazar hi ven, amaha pathian siangthoute kha a omna: huchiin a maah mang tuh ka gentaa.

⁸But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my God, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods: and before him I told the dream, saying,

⁹Aw Beltesazar, mitkhialdawitawite heutup, nang ah, [athian siangthoute kha a oma, thugk bangmahin nang a honhihbuai kei chih ka theih jiakin, ka manga ka muh mengmuhte leh a hilhchetna honhilh in, ka chia,

⁹O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof.

¹⁰Ka lupna tunga ka lutang mengmuhte hichibang ahi: Lei lai ah, ngaiin, sing khat ka mua, huai sandan a thupi mahmah hi.

¹⁰Thus were the visions of mine head in my bed; I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was great.

¹¹Huai sing a hongkhanga, a honghata, a sannain van a sun toua, lei tengteng tawp huaiah a kimu hi.

¹¹The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth:

¹²A nahte a hoih un, a gah pha mahmaha; huaiah tengteng adingin an a om hi: gama sate a nuai lim ah a om ua, vana vasate ahiangahte a teng ua, sa tengteng huaia kipanin a kivak uhi.

¹²The leaves thereof were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all: the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the boughs thereof, and all flesh was fed of it.

¹³Ka lupna tungah ka lutang mengte ka mu a, ngaiin, van akipanin veng mi siangthou khat a hongpai suk hi.

¹³I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and, behold, a watcher and an holy one came down from heaven;

¹⁴Ngaih takin a kikoua, hichibangin a chi a: Sing tuh phuk inla, ahiangte sat khia inla, a nahte akipan vasate.

¹⁴He cried aloud, and said thus, Hew down the tree, and cut off his branches, shake off his leaves, and scatter his fruit: let the beasts get away from under it, and the fowls from his branches:

¹⁵A hihhangin leia a zungte kithuahpih pen hawiin, sik leh dal guia henin, gama loupa nou lakah van daituiin kawt henla, a tantuan leia loupa lak sate toh hi hen.

¹⁵Nevertheless leave the stump of his roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth:

¹⁶A lungtang mihing akipan khenbin om henlam a kiangah sa lungtang piak hihen; huan hun sagih a tungah bei hen.

¹⁶Let his heart be changed from man's, and let a beast's heart be given unto him; and let seven times pass over him.

¹⁷Gawtna vengmite thupiak ahi a, mi siangthoute thuphut: huchia Tungnungpenin mite gamah vai a hawma, a utna peuh kiangah huai tungah a dingkhe saka chih mihingten a theihna dingun.

¹⁷This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.

¹⁸Hiai mang kei kumpipa Nebukadnezzarin ka mana: huan, nang, Aw Beltesazar, a hilhchetna genkhia in, ka gama mi pilte tentenin ka kiangah a hilhchetna a honthei sak thei ngal kei ua; himahleh nang na hihthei, nanga pathian siangthoute kha a om jiakin.

¹⁸This dream I king Nebuchadnezzar have seen. Now thou, O Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation thereof, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation: but thou art able; for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee.

¹⁹Huan Daniel, a min Beltesazar in, sawtlou kal lamdang a sa a, a ngaihtuahnaten amah a patausak uh. Kumpipan a dawnga huan, Beltesazar, mang hiam a hilchetna hiamin nang honpatausak kei hen, a chi a. Beltesazar in a dawng a, Ka TOUPA, mang nang honmudahte lam thu hi henla, a hilhchetna na galte lam thu hi hen.

¹⁹Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was astonied for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spake, and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation thereof, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine enemies.

²⁰Na sing muh, hong khanga, honghata, a sanna in van a sut touha, hiai a kipan lei tengteng a kimuhna;

²⁰The tree that thou sawest, which grew, and was strong, whose height reached unto the heaven, and the sight thereof to all the earth;

²¹a nahte a hoih a, a gah pha mahmah a, huai ah tengteng a ding an a oma; huai nuaiah gama sate a teng ua, ahiangte ah vana vasaten tenna a nei uh:

²¹Whose leaves were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and upon whose branches the fowls of the heaven had their habitation:

²²Aw kumpipa, huai hongkhang a, honghat, nangmah na hi a: na thupina lah a khangin, van a sunin, na lalna lah lei tawp pha in ahi ngala.

²²It is thou, O king, that art grown and become strong: for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto heaven, and thy dominion to the end of the earth.

²³Vana kipana kumpipan vengmi siangthou hongpai suk a muh a, Sing tuh phuk inla, hihgawpin; himahleh leia a zungte kithuahpih hawiin, sik leh dal guia hen toh, gama loupa nou lak ah; vana daitui in kawt henla, huan a tantuan gama sate kiangah hi hen, a tunga hun sagih a bei matan, chih thu ahih leh;

²³And whereas the king saw a watcher and an holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew the tree down, and destroy it; yet leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him;

²⁴Aw kumpipa, hiai a hilhchetna ahi, ka TOUPA kumpipa tunga hongtung, Tungnungpen thupiak ahi a:

²⁴This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree of the most High, which is come upon my lord the king:

²⁵Mite akipan hawlkhiak in na om dia; gama sate kiang ah na tenna a omta dia; bawngtalte bang a loupa neksak in na om dinga; van daitui in na kawt ding a; na tungah hun sagih a bei ding; mite gamah Tungnungpen in vai a hawma; a ututna kiangah huai tuh a pia chih na theih ma tan.

²⁵That they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

²⁶Huan sing zungte kithuahpih nuse ding a thu piak a om pen a hihleh; vanten vai hawm petmah uh ahi chih natheih khit chiang in na gam nang a ding in a kip ahi.

²⁶And whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the tree roots; thy kingdom shall be sure unto thee, after that thou shalt have known that the heavens do rule.

²⁷Aw kumpipa, huaijiakin ka honthuhilh nanga dingin pomtuak leh tagahte kianga chitna etsaknain na thulimlouhnate tawpsan in; na hamphatna suksaua a om khak zenzen leh chiin.

²⁷Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.

²⁸Hiai tengteng kumpipa Nebukadnezzar tungah a hong tung hi.

²⁸All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar.

²⁹Khasawm leh nih beiin Babulona kumpi inpi sungah a vaka.

²⁹At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon.

³⁰Kumpipan thu a gena, Hiai Babulon thupi, kumpi tenna mun dinga, ka thilhihtheihna hatnaa, ka lalna thupina dinga ka lam ahi kei maw? a chi a.

³⁰The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty?

³¹Kumpipa kam sunga thu a om lai mahmahin, van akipan aw a hongkiaa, Aw kumpipa Nebukadnezzar, na kianga thugen ahi: nang akipan gam a paimangta.

³¹While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee.

³²Mite akipanin hawl khiak na hi dinga, huan na tenna gama sate kiangah ahi ding; bawngtalte banga loupa ne dinga bawlin na om dia; na tungah hun sagih a bei ding; Tungnungpenin mite gamah vai a hawma, huan, huai tuh a ututna kiangah a pia chih na theih matan, chiin.

³²And they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

³³Huai thil tuh a tungtaa: mite a kipana hawlkhiakin a oma; bawngtalte bangin loupa a ne petmaha; a pumpi tuh van daituiin a kawta; a sam mu vanlai multe a hongbata, a chinte vasate chinte a hongbat ma tan.

³³The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws.

³⁴Huan nite beiin kei Nebukadnezzarin van lamah ka mitte ka suantou a, huan ka theihtheihnate ka kiangah a hongkik nawna, huchiin Tungnungpen ka pahtawia; amah khantawna om gepa ka phatin ka zahtaka hi: A lalna lah khantawn lalna ahi a, a gam lah a khang akhangin ahi ngala:

³⁴And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:

³⁵Huan leia tengte tengteng bangmahlou banga ngaih ahi ua: huan van sepaih pawl leh leia tengtengte lakah a deihlam bangin a hih jela: kuamahin a khut a len thei un, a kiangah, Bang dia hih na hia? a chi theikei uh.

³⁵And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

³⁶Huai lai mahin ka theihtheihna ka kiangah a hongkika; ka gam thupina, ka lalna leh hoihna ka kiangah lah a hongkika; huan ka midotte leh ka toupaten kei kiang a honzong ua; huchiin ka gamah kiptakin ka dinga, kei dingin thupina lian mahmah behlapin a omta hi.Huchiin kei Nebukadnezzarin van Kumpipa ka phatin ka pahtawiin ka zahtaka; a thilhih tengteng lah thutak ahi a, a lampite taka omte a hihniam thei hi.

³⁶At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me.

³⁷Huchiin kei Nebukadnezzarin van Kumpipa ka phatin ka pahtawiin ka zahtaka; a thilhih tengteng lah thutak ahi a, a lampite taka omte a hihniam thei hi.

³⁷Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.
