Daniel

2

1In the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams; and his spirit was troubled, and his sleep went from him.
1 Nebukadnezzar mayray jiiri hinkanta ra no Nebukadnezzar na hindiriyaŋ te. A laakalo binde tun, a jirbo kosu a se.
2Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the enchanters, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, to tell the king his dreams. So they came in and stood before the king.
2 Saaya din bonkoono lordi ka ne i ma moodabal-teekoy da handariya ceecikoy da ziimey da Kaldancey ce, zama i ma bonkoono hindirey ci a se. i binde furo ka kay bonkoono jine.
3The king said to them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.
3 Kala bonkoono ne i se: «Ay na hindiri fo te. Ay laakalo tun mo hal ay ma du ka hindiro bay.»
4Then spoke the Chaldeans to the king in the Syrian language, O king, live forever: tell your servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.
4 Kaldancey binde salaŋ bonkoono se da Aramancey ciina ka ne: «Ya Bonkoono, ni aloomaro ma tonton! Ma hindiro ci iri, ni bannyey se, iri mo g'a feerijo kaa taray ni se.»
5The king answered the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if you don’t make known to me the dream and its interpretation, you shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill.
5 Bonkoono tu ka ne Kaldancey se: «Ay sanni tabbatanta neeya: D'araŋ mana ay bayrandi nda hindiro nd'a feerijo mo, i g'araŋ dumbu-dumbu, i m'araŋ windey ciya begunuyaŋ.
6But if you show the dream and its interpretation, you shall receive of me gifts and rewards and great honor: therefore show me the dream and its interpretation.
6 Amma d'araŋ na hindiro nd'a feerijo kulu bangandi ay se, araŋ ga du nooyaŋ da banandi nda darza beeraykoy ay kambe ra. Araŋ binde ma hindiro d'a feerijo bangandi ay se.»
7They answered the second time and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.
7 I tu sorro hinkanta ka ne: «Bonkoono ma hindiro wo ci iri, nga bannyey se. Iri mo g'a feerijo kaa taray.»
8The king answered, I know of a certainty that you would gain time, because you see the thing is gone from me.
8 Bonkoono tu ka ne: «Ay bay daahir kaŋ araŋ goono ga daama ceeci no, zama araŋ bay kaŋ ay sanno ga tabbat.
9But if you don’t make known to me the dream, there is but one law for you; for you have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, until the time be changed: therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that you can show me its interpretation.
9 Amma d'araŋ man'ay bayrandi nda hindiro, ciiti folloŋ no araŋ boŋ, zama araŋ na tangari sanniyaŋ da ruubu soola ay se kaŋ araŋ ga ci ay se hala haya da nga alwaato ma barmay. Woodin sabbay se, kal araŋ ma hindiro ci ay se. Yaadin gaa no ay ga bay kaŋ araŋ ga waani k'a feerijo bangandi ay se.»
10The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man on the earth who can show the king’s matter, because no king, lord, or ruler, has asked such a thing of any magician, or enchanter, or Chaldean.
10 Kala Kaldancey ci bonkoono se ka ne: «Boro fo si no ndunnya ra kaŋ gonda hina ka bonkoono misa bangandi, za kaŋ koy wala bonkooni wala mayraykoy fo si no kaŋ na hayo wo dumi hã moodabal-teeko wala handariya ceeciko wala Kaldancey kulu dumi gaa.
11It is a rare thing that the king requires, and there is no other who can show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
11 Haŋ kaŋ ga sandi no, haya kaŋ bonkoono goono ga ceeci. Boro fo si no mo kaŋ ga hin k'a bangandi bonkoono se kala day de-koyey* kaŋ i gora si gaaham banda.»
12For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
12 Woodin se binde bonkoono bina tun, a futu mo gumo. A lordi ka ne i ma Babila laakalkooney kulu wi.
13So the decree went forth, and the wise men were to be slain; and they sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.
13 Feyaŋo binde fatta: i ciiti i ma laakalkooney wi. I binde na Daniyel da nga borey ceeci zama i m'i wi se.
14Then Daniel returned answer with counsel and prudence to Arioch the captain of the king’s guard, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon;
14 Saaya din no Daniyel na sanno ye saaware da laakal boŋ Ariyoku se, kaŋ ga ti bonkoono mantawey jine bora, kaŋ fatta zama nga ma Babila laakalkooney wi se.
15he answered Arioch the king’s captain, Why is the decree so urgent from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.
15 A tu ka ne bonkoono jine bora Ariyoku se: «Ifo se no bonkoono sanno gonda kankami ya-cine?» Kala Ariyoku na Daniyel bayrandi nda sanno.
16Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would appoint him a time, and he would show the king the interpretation.
16 Daniyel binde furo ka bonkoono ŋwaaray ka ne a ma alwaati kosu nga se, kulu nga ga feerijo bangandi bonkoono se.
17Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions:
17 Kala Daniyel koy nga kwaara ka sanno dede nga corey Hananiya nda Misayel da Azariya se.
18that they would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning this secret; that Daniel and his companions should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
18 Zama ngey ma suuji ŋwaaray Irikoy kaŋ go beene gaa, gundo din boŋ, zama Daniyel da nga corey ma si halaci Babila laakalkooni cindey banda.
19Then was the secret revealed to Daniel in a vision of the night. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
19 Saaya din no Irikoy na gundo din bangandi Daniyel se cin bangandi ra. Kala Daniyel na Irikoy kaŋ go beene saabu.
20Daniel answered, Blessed be the name of God forever and ever; for wisdom and might are his.
20 Daniyel tu ka ne: «I ma Irikoy maa sifa hal abada abadin, Zama laakal da hina, a wane no.
21He changes the times and the seasons; he removes kings, and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those who have understanding;
21 A ga alwaatey da jirbey bare. A ga koyey tumbi, a ga koyey daŋ koytaray mo. A ga laakal no laakalkooney se, A ga bayray mo no borey kaŋ yaŋ ga fahamay bay se.
22he reveals the deep and secret things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.
22 A ga gundu hari guusoyaŋ bangandi. A ga bay haŋ kaŋ go kubay ra. Kaari mo goono ga goro a banda.
23I thank you, and praise you, you God of my fathers, who have given me wisdom and might, and have now made known to me what we desired of you; for you have made known to us the king’s matter.
23 Ya ay kaayey Irikoyo, Ay saabu ni se, ay ga ni kuku mo, Nin kaŋ n'ay no laakal da hina. Sohõ mo ni n'ay bayrandi nda haŋ kaŋ iri goono ga ceeci ni gaa, Zama ni n'iri bayrandi nda bonkoono misa din.»
24Therefore Daniel went in to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he went and said thus to him: Don’t destroy the wise men of Babylon; bring me in before the king, and I will show to the king the interpretation.
24 Daniyel binde furo Ariyoku do, bora kaŋ bonkoono daŋ a ma Babila laakalkooney halaci. A koy ka ne a se: «Ma si Babila laakalkooney halaci. Ma kond'ay bonkoono do, ay mo ga feerijo bangandi bonkoono se.»
25Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus to him, I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Judah, who will make known to the king the interpretation.
25 Ariyoku binde konda Daniyel bonkoono jine nda cahãyaŋ. Yaa mo no a ne a se: «Ay du boro fo Yahuda tamtaray izey ra kaŋ ga bonkoono bayrandi nda feerijo.»
26The king answered Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Are you able to make known to me the dream which I have seen, and its interpretation?
26 Bonkoono tu ka ne Daniyel se kaŋ i ga ne a maa se Beltesazzar: «Ni ga hin ka hindiro kaŋ ay di d'a feerijo mo bangandi ay se, wala?»
27Daniel answered before the king, and said, The secret which the king has demanded can neither wise men, enchanters, magicians, nor soothsayers, show to the king;
27 Daniyel tu bonkoono jine ka ne: «Gundo kaŋ bonkoono lordi ka ne i ma bangandi, baa laakalkooney wala handariya ceecikoy wala moodabalkoy wala gunakoy sinda hina k'a bangandi bonkoono se.
28but there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets, and he has made known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Your dream, and the visions of your head on your bed, are these:
28 Amma Irikoy go no, beene wano, kaŋ ga gundey kulu kaa taray. Nga mo no ka bonkoono Nebukadnezzar bayrandi nda haŋ kaŋ ga te jirbi banantey ra. Ni hindiro da ni boŋo ra diyaŋey kaŋ ni di dima boŋ, ngey neeya:
29as for you, O king, your thoughts came into your mind on your bed, what should happen hereafter; and he who reveals secrets has made known to you what shall happen.
29 Ni do, ya nin Bonkoono, fonguyaŋey furo ni se ni boŋo ra ni dima boŋ da haŋ kaŋ no ga te ne ka koy jina. Nga mo kaŋ ga gundey fisi ka kaa taray na ni bayrandi nda haŋ kaŋ ga te.
30But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living, but to the intent that the interpretation may be made known to the king, and that you may know the thoughts of your heart.
30 Amma ay wo, Irikoy mana gundo bangandi ay se, danga day ay gonda laakal ka bisa fundikooni kulu wane, amma a ga ba nga ma bonkoono bayrandi nda feerijo, zama ni ma ni bina fonguyaŋey bay.
31You, O king, saw, and behold, a great image. This image, which was mighty, and whose brightness was excellent, stood before you; and its aspect was awesome.
31 Bonkoono, ni go ga guna, kala ni di boro himandi bambata fo. Himando go, a ga beeri. A nyaaleyaŋo mo beeri, a go ga kay ni jine. A alhaalo mo ga humburandi.
32As for this image, its head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass,
32 Himando din binde, a boŋo wura hanno no; a ganda d'a kambey nzarfu no; a gunda d'a tanjey guuru-say no;
33its legs of iron, its feet part of iron, and part of clay.
33 a cey guuru-bi wane yaŋ no; a ce taamey jara botogo no, jara mo guuru-bi no.
34You saw until a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on its feet that were of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces.
34 Ni goono ga mo daaru ka guna, kala tondi fo dagu kaŋ manti nda kambe, kaŋ na himando kar nga ce taamey gaa, kaŋ ga ti guuru-bi margante nda botoga din. A n'a bagu-bagu.
35Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken in pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, so that no place was found for them: and the stone that struck the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
35 Saaya din, guuru-biyo da botoga da guuru-sayo da nzarfo nda wura bagu-bagu care banda. I ciya danga jaw waate dubangu du cine. Haw kond'ey mo hala boro si ye ka di ey koyne. Tondo mo kaŋ na himando kar din, a ciya tondi kuuku bambata ka ndunnya kulu toonandi.
36This is the dream; and we will tell its interpretation before the king.
36 Hindiro nooya! Iri g'a feerijo mo ci bonkoono jine.
37You, O king, are king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the glory;
37 Ya Bonkoono, nin no ga ti koyey bonkoono zama Irikoy, beene wano na ni no mayray da hina da gaabi da beeray.
38and wherever the children of men dwell, the animals of the field and the birds of the sky has he given into your hand, and has made you to rule over them all: you are the head of gold.
38 Nangu kulu kaŋ borey izey bara ga goro, a na ganji hamey da beene curey kulu mo daŋ ni kambe ra. A na ni no i kulu mayray. Nin no ga ti wura boŋo din.
39After you shall arise another kingdom inferior to you; and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
39 Ni banda mo mayray fo ga tun kaŋ ga gaze ni beera gaa, waato din gaa mayray hinzanta koyne, guuru-say wane kaŋ ga mayray sambu ndunnya kulu boŋ.
40The fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron, because iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things; and as iron that crushes all these, shall it break in pieces and crush.
40 Mayray taacanta binde ga te gaabi sanda guuru-bi, danga mate kaŋ guuru-bi ga hay kulu bagu-bagu, nga mo ga hay kulu may. Danga mate kaŋ guuru-bi ga hayey wo kulu naan, yaadin mo no mayray wo ga bagu-bagu ka naan mo.
41Whereas you saw the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and part of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, because you saw the iron mixed with miry clay.
41 Mate kaŋ binde ni di ce taamey da ce izey, jara kusu teeko botogo no, jara mo guuru-bi wane, woodin mo ga ciya mayray fayante amma a ra i ga gaabi gar, guuru-bi wane, za kaŋ ni di guuru-bi goono ga margu nda kusu botogo a ra.
42As the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
42 Koyne, danga mate kaŋ ce izey jara guuru-bi wane no, jara mo botogo, yaadin no mayra ga goro, jara gonda gaabi, jara mo sinda gaabi.
43Whereas you saw the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men; but they shall not cling to one another, even as iron does not mingle with clay.
43 Koyne, mate kaŋ ni di guuru-biyo go ga margu nda botoga, i ga ngey boŋ margu nda dumi waaniyaŋ, amma i si naagu care gaa bo, danga mate kaŋ guuru-bi si naagu botogo gaa.
44In the days of those kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed, nor shall its sovereignty be left to another people; but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.
44 Bonkooney din zamaney ra no Irikoy kaŋ go beena ra ga mayray fo sinji, kaŋ i s'a zeeri abada. A koytara mo, a s'a naŋ boro cindey se, amma a ga mayrayey din kulu bagu-bagu, a m'i ŋwa. Nga wo ga kay mo hal abada.
45Because you saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king what shall happen hereafter: and the dream is certain, and its interpretation sure.
45 Za kaŋ ni di i na tondi beero din kaa tondi kuuku bambata ra, kaŋ manti nda kambe, hala mo a na guuru-bi, da guuru-say, da botogo nda nzarfu nda wura kulu bagu-bagu, kala Irikoy, beeraykoyo, na bonkoono bayrandi nda haŋ kaŋ ga te ne jine. Hindiro mo tabbat no, a feerijo mo si gaze.»
46Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, and worshiped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an offering and sweet odors to him.
46 Saaya din no bonkoono Nebukadnezzar ye ganda nga moyduma boŋ ka sududu Daniyel se. A lordi mo ka ne i ma kande sargay da dugu, k'a salle Daniyel se.
47The king answered to Daniel, and said, Of a truth your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you have been able to reveal this secret.
47 Bonkoono tu Daniyel se ka ne: «Haciika, araŋ Irikoyo, nga no ga ti de-koyey Irikoyo, bonkooney Bonkooni mo no, kaŋ ga gundey bangandi, za kaŋ ni du ka gundo wo bangandi.»
48Then the king made Daniel great, and gave him many great gifts, and made him to rule over the whole province of Babylon, and to be chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.
48 Saaya din no bonkoono na Daniyel beerandi. A n'a no nooyaŋ boobo, a n'a no koytaray Babila laabo kulu boŋ a ma ciya mayko beeri Babila laakalkooney kulu boŋ.
49Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel was in the gate of the king.
49 Daniyel mo ŋwaaray bonkoono gaa nga ma Sadrak da Mesak da Abednego daŋ Babila laabu muraadey boŋ, amma Daniyel go bonkoono faada ra.
