Daniel 6
1 And it pleased Darius, and he set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, to be in all his kingdom;
Sitrak’ i Dariosa ny hanendry solo-mpanjaka roa-polo amby zato hanapaka ny fanjakana, izay hanapaka ny fanjakana rehetra.
2 and over them three governors, of whom one was Daniel; for the satraps to give account to them, that the king should not be troubled.
Koa tamin’ ireo dia nisy komandy lehibe telo lahy, ary Daniela no anankiray tamin’ ireo, mba hilazan’ ny solo-mpanjaka ny raharaha tsy hahafatiantoka ny mpanjaka.
3 And Daniel was over them, for [there was] an excellent spirit in him; and the king set him over all his kingdom.
Izany Daniela izany dia nihoatra noho ny komandy lehibe sy ny solo-mpanjaka namany, fa nanam-panahy hendry izy; ary ny mpanjaka nikasa hanandratra azy ho lehibe amin’ ny fanjakana rehetra.
4 Then the governors and satraps sought to find occasion against Daniel; but they found against him no occasion, nor trespass, nor error, because he was faithful.
Koa ny komandy lehibe sy ny solo-mpanjaka dia nitady izay hiampangany an’ i Daniela ny amin’ ny fanjakana, nefa tsy nahita izay hiampangany azy na izay tsininy akory ireo, satria marina izy, ka tsy nisy kilema na tsiny hita taminy.
5 And the governors said, We shall not find occasion against Daniel, except in the ordinances of his God.
Dia hoy ireo lehilahy ireo: Tsy ho hitantsika izay hiampangantsika io Daniela io raha tsy ny amin’ ny lalan’ Andriamaniny no misy hitantsika hiampangana azy.
6 Then the governors and satraps stood by the king, and said to him, King Darius, live for ever.
Dia somaritaka nivory ho any amin’ ny mpanjaka ireo komandy lehibe sy solo-mpanjaka ireo; ary izao no nataony taminy: Ry Dariosa mpanjaka ô, ho velona mandrakizay anie ianao.
7 All who preside over thy kingdom, captains and satraps, chiefs and local governors, have taken counsel together, to establish by a royal statute and to confirm a decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions.
Ny komandy lehibe rehetra amin’ ny fanjakana sy ny mpanapaka sy ny solo-mpanjaka sy ny mpanolo-tsaina ary ny governora dia mifanara-kevitra fa tokony hanao lalàna sy didy mafy ianao, ry mpanjaka, ka na zovy na zovy no hanao fangatahana ato anatin’ ny telo-polo andro, na amin’ Andriamanitra na amin’ olona, afa-tsy aminao ihany, ry mpanjaka ô, dia hatsipy ao an-davaky ny liona izy.
8 Now then, O king, establish the decree, and publish a writ, that the decree of the Persians and Medes be not changed.
Ankehitriny, ry mpanjaka ô, ataovy mafy ny lalàna, ka asio sonia mba tsy hiova, araka ny lalàn’ ny Mediana sy ny Persiana izay tsy azo ovana.
9 Then king Darius commanded the decree to be written.
Ary noho izany dia nasian’ i Dariosa mpanjaka sonia izany lalàna sy didy izany.
10 And when Daniel knew that the decree was ordered, he went into his house; and his windows were opened in his chambers toward Jerusalem, and three times in the day he knelt upon his knees, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he used to do before.
Nony fantatr’ i Daniela fa efa voaisy sonia ny didy, dia nankao an-tranony izy; ary ny varavarankelin’ ny tranony ambony nanandrify an’ i Jerosalema dia nivoha. Koa intelo isan’ andro no nandohalika ka nivavaka sy nisaotra teo anatrehan’ Andriamaniny izy, satria fanaony hatramin’ ny taloha izany.
11 Then these men watched, and found Daniel praying and supplicating to his God.
Dia somaritaka nivory ireo lehilahy ireo ka nahita an’ i Daniela mangataka sy mifona eo anatrehan’ Andriamaniny.
12 And they came and said to the king, O king, hast thou not made a decree, that whatsoever man shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, but of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? And the king said, The word is true, and the decree of the Medes and Persians shall not pass.
Dia nanatona izy ka niteny teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka noho ny amin’ ilay lalàn’ ny mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Moa tsy misy lalàna nasianao sonia fa na zovy na zovy no hanao fangatahana, na amin’ Andriamanitra na amin’ olona, ato anatin’ ny telo-polo andro afa-tsy aminao ihany, ry mpanjaka ô, dia hatsipy ao an-davaky ny liona? Ny mpanjaka namaly ka nanao hoe: Marina izany, dia araka ny lalàn’ ny Mediana sy ny Persiana izay tsy azo ovana.
13 Then they answered and said before the king, Daniel of the children of the captivity of Judea, has not submitted to thy decree; and three times in the day he makes his requests of his God.
Dia niteny ireo ka nanao teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Ilay Daniela, isan’ ny babo avy amin’ ny taranak’ i Joda, dia tsy manaiky anao, na ny lalàna izay nasianao sonia, ry mpanjaka ô, fa manao fangatahana intelo isan’ andro izy.
14 Then the king, when he heard the saying, was much grieved for Daniel, and he greatly exerted himself for Daniel to deliver him: and he exerted himself till evening to deliver him.
Dia tezitra indrindra ny mpanjaka, raha nahare izany teny izany, nefa matiny ihany izy ny hanafaka an’ i Daniela, ka nanao izay tratry ny heviny hamonjy azy mandra-pilentiky ny masoandro.
15 Then those men said to the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, that we must not change any decree or statute which the king shall make.
Dia somaritaka nivory ho any amin’ ny mpanjaka ireo lehilahy ireo ka nanao tamin’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Aoka ho fantatrao, ry mpanjaka, fa izao no lalàn’ ny Mediana sy ny Persiana: Ny lalàna sy ny didy izay efa navoaky ny mpanjaka dia tsy azo ovana.
16 Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. But the king said to Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will deliver thee.
Dia nandidy ny mpanjaka; ary nentina Daniela ka natsipy tao an-davaky ny liona. Dia niteny ny mpanjaka ka nanao tamin’ i Daniela hoe: Andriamanitrao Izay tompoinao mandrakariva anie hamonjy anao.
17 And they brought a stone, and put it on the mouth of the den; and the king sealed [it] with his ring, and with the ring of his nobles; that the case might not be altered with regard to Daniel.
Ary nisy vato natampina ny vava-lavaka; ary ny mpanjaka nanomboka izany tamin’ ny fanombohan-kaseny sy tamin’ ny fanombohan-kasen’ ny andriandahiny, mba tsy hovana ny teny ny amin’ i Daniela.
18 And the king departed to his house, and lay down fasting, and they brought him no food; and his sleep departed from him. But God shut the mouths of the lions, and they did not molest Daniel.
Dia nody tany an-dapany ny mpanjaka ary tsy nitendry hanina mandritra ny alina, sady tsy nisy zava-maneno nampidirina teo anatrehany, ary tsy nahita torimaso izy.
19 Then the king arose very early in the morning, and came in haste to the den of lions.
Dia nifoha maraina koa ny mpanjaka ka nandeha faingana ho any amin’ ny lavaky ny liona.
20 And when he drew near to the den, he cried with a loud voice, Daniel, servant of the living God, has thy God, whom thou servest continually, been able to deliver thee from the lion’s mouth?
Ary nony tonga teo amin’ ny lavaka izy, dia niantso an’ i Daniela tamin’ ny feo malahelo; eny, niteny ny mpanjaka ka nanao tamin’ i Daniela hoe: Ry Daniela, mpanompon’ Andriamanitra velona ô, moa Andriamanitrao Izay tompoinao mandrakariva mahavonjy anao amin’ ny liona va?
21 And Daniel said to the king, O king, live for ever.
Namaly ny mpanjaka Daniela hoe: Ry mpanjaka, ho velona mandrakizay anie ianao.
22 My God has sent his angel, and stopped the lions’ mouths, and they have not hurt me: for uprightness was found in me before him; and moreover before thee, O king, I have committed no trespass.
Andriamanitro efa naniraka ny anjeliny ka nanakombona ny vavan’ ny liona tsy handratra ahy, satria fahamarinana no hitany tamiko; ary teo anatrehanao koa, ry mpanjaka ô, tsy nanao ratsy aho.
23 Then the king was very glad for him, and he commanded to bring Daniel out of the den. So Daniel was brought out of the den, and there was found no hurt upon him, because he believed in his God.
Dia faly indrindra ny mpanjaka, ka nasainy nakarina avy ao an-davaka Daniela. Dia nakarina avy tao an-davaka Daniela, ary tsy hita nisy naratra izy, satria nino an’ Andriamaniny.
24 And the king commanded, and they brought the men that had accused Daniel, and they were cast into the den of lions, they, and their children, and their wives: and they reached not the bottom of the den before the lions had the mastery of them, and utterly broke to pieces all their bones.
Ary ny mpanjaka nandidy, ka nentina ireo lehilahy niampanga an’ i Daniela ireo, dia natsipy tao an-davaky ny liona izy mbamin’ ny vadiny aman-janany, ary ny liona nanan-kery taminy ka nanapatapaka ny taolany, raha tsy mbola nipaka tamin’ ny vodin’ ny lavaka akory aza izy.
25 Then king Darius wrote to all nations, tribes, [and] languages, who dwell in all the earth, [saying], Peace be multiplied to you.
Tamin’ izany Dariosa mpanjaka dia nanoratra ho amin’ ny fokom-pirenena sy ny firenena sy ny samy hafa fiteny rehetra izay monina ambonin’ ny tany rehetra hoe: Hitombo anie ny fiadananareo.
26 This decree has been set forth by me in every dominion of my kingdom, that [men] tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living and eternal God, and his kingdom shall not be destroyed, and his dominion is for ever.
Manao lalàna aho mba hangovitan’ ny olona sy hatahorany eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitr’ i Daniela eran’ ny fanjakako rehetra; fa Izy no Andriamanitra velona sady maharitra mandrakizay; ny fanjakany haharitra hatramin’ ny farany.
27 He helps and delivers, and works signs and wonders in the heaven and on the earth, who has rescued Daniel from the power of the lions.
Izy no mamonjy sy manafaka ary manao famantarana sy fahagagana any an-danitra sy etỳ an-tany, ary Izy no namonjy an’ i Daniela ho afaka tamin’ ny herin’ ny liona.
28 And Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
Ary izany Daniela izany dia nambinina tamin’ ny nanjakan’ i Dariosa sy tamin’ ny nanjakan’ i Kyrosy Persiana.
