< Daniel 2 >

1 And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams; and his spirit was troubled, and his sleep went from him.
I KA makahiki elua o ke au ia Nebukaneza, ua moe uhane o Nebukaneza, a anoninoni iho la kona uhane, hiaa loa iho la kona hiamoe.
2 Then 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.
Alaila, kauoha aku la ke alii e kii aku i na magoi, a me ka poe kilo, a me ka poe hoopiopio, a me ka poe Kaledea, i hoakaka mai lakou i ke alii i kana moe. A hele mai lakou a ku iho la imua o ke alii.
3 And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.
I aku la ke alii ia lakou, Ua moe uhane au i ka moe, a pihoihoi iho la kuu uhane e ike i ua moe la.
4 Then spake the Chaldeans to the king in the Syrian language, O king, live for ever: tell thy servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.
Ekemu mai la ka poe Kaledea i ke alii ma ka olelo Suria, E ola mau loa ke alii: E hai mai oe i kau poe kauwa i ua moe la, a na makou ia e hoakaka aku.
5 The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if ye make not known unto me the dream and the interpretation thereof, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill.
Olelo aku la ke alii i ka poe Kaledea, i aku la, Ua paa kuu olelo, ina aole oukou e hai mai i ka moe a me kona ano, e okioki liilii ia oukou, a o ko oukou mau hale e liloia i hooleina moka.
6 But if ye show the dream and the interpretation thereof, ye shall receive of me gifts and rewards and great honor: therefore show me the dream and the interpretation thereof.
Aka, e hai mai oukou ia'u i ka moe a me kona hoike, alaila e loaa ia oukou ka makana, a me ka uku, a me ka hanohano nui no'u aku; no ia mea, e hai mai i ka moe, a me kona hoike.
7 They answered the second time and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation.
Ekemu hou mai la lakou, i mai, E hai mai ke alii i kana poe kauwa i ka moe, a na makou ia e hoakaka aku.
8 The king answered and said, I know of a certainty that ye would gain time, because ye see the thing is gone from me.
Olelo aku ke alii, i aku la, Ua ike au, he oiaio no, ke makemake nei oukou, e hooloihi i ka manawa, no ka mea, ua ike oukou ua paa kuu olelo.
9 But if ye make not known unto me the dream, there is but one law for you; for ye have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, till the time be changed: therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that ye can show me the interpretation thereof.
Aka, ke hoakaka ole mai oukou ia'u i ka moe, hookahi mea paa no oukou; no ka mea, ua hoomakaukau oukou i na olelo wahahee a me ka lapuwale e hai mai imua o'u, a ano hou ae la ka manawa; no ia mea, e hai mai ia'u i ka moe, alaila ua moakaka ia'u, e hiki ia oukou ke hoomaopopo mai i ke ano.
10 The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can show the king’s matter, forasmuch as no king, lord, or ruler, hath asked such a thing of any magician, or enchanter, or Chaldean.
Alaila, ekemu hou mai ka poe Kaledea imua o ke alii, i mai la, Aohe kanaka ma ka honua e hiki ia ia ke hoakaka i ka ke alii mea; aole alii, aole haku, aole luna, i koi aku i ke kilo, a me ka magoi, a me ke Kaledea i na mea e like me keia.
11 And it is a rare thing that the king requireth, and there is no other that can show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
A he mea pohihihi keia mea a ke alii i koi mai nei: aole loa he mea e hiki ke hoakaka ia mea imua o ke alii, aka, o na akua wale no, na mea i noho pu olo me kanaka.
12 For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
No keia mea, huhu iho la ke alii a ukiuki loa, a kauoha aku la oia e luku aku i ka poe naauao a pau ma Babulona.
13 So the decree went forth, and the wise men were to be slain; and they sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.
A holo ka olelo e lukuia ka poe naauao a pau; a imiia iho la o Daniela a me kona mau hoa e pepehiia'i lakou.
14 Then Daniel returned answer with counsel and prudence to Arioch the captain of the king’s guard, who was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon;
Alaila, olelo aku la o Daniela me ka noonoo, a me ka naauao ia Arioka, i ka luna o ka poe ilamuku o ke alii, ka poe i hele aku e pepehi i ka poe naauao ma Babulona.
15 he answered and said to Arioch the king’s captain, Wherefore is the decree so urgent from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.
I aku la oia ia Arioka i ka luna o ke alii, i aku, No ke aha la ka holo wawe ana o ka olelo a ke alii? Alaila hoakaka mai la o Arioka ia Daniela i ua mea la.
16 And Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would appoint him a time, and he would show the king the interpretation.
Alaila, komo ae la o Daniela, a noi aku la i ko alii e haawi mai ia ia i kekahi manawa, a e hoakaka aku no oia i ke alii i ka hoike.
17 Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions:
Alaila, hele aku la o Daniela i kona hale, a hoike aku ia mea ia Hanania, a me Misaela, a me Azaria, kona mau hoa;
18 that 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.
I noi aku lakou i ke aloha no ke Akua mai o ka lani, no keia mea i ike ole ia, i ole e make pu o Daniela a me kona mau hoa me na kanaka naauao e ae ma Babulona.
19 Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a vision of the night. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
Alaila, ua hoakakaia mai ua mea ike ole ia la ia Daniela, ma ke akaku i ka po. A hoomaikai aku la o Daniela i ke Akua o ka lani.
20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever; for wisdom and might are his.
Olelo aku o Daniela, i aku la, E hoomaikaiia ka inoa o ke Akua ia ao aku ia ao aku; no ka mea, nona ka naauao a me ka mana;
21 And he changeth the times and the seasons; he removeth kings, and setteth up kings; he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that have understanding;
Nana no i hoololi mai i na wa a me na kau; nana no i kipaku aku i na'lii, a hooku hoi iluna i na'lii: haawi mai no hoi oia i ka naauao no ka poe naauao, a me ka ike no ka poe ike.
22 he revealeth the deep and secret things; he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
Ua hoakaka mai oia i na mea hohonu a me na mea i ike ole ia. Ua ike oia i na mea ma ka pouli, a me ia pu no ka malamalama.
23 I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast now made known unto me what we desired of thee; for thou hast made known unto us the king’s matter.
Ke hoomaikai aku nei au ia oe, e ke Akua o ko'u poe kupuna, ke hoolea aku nei au ia oe, ka mea i haawi mai ia'u i ka naauao a me ka ikaika, ka mea i hoakaka mai i na mea a makou i noi aku ai ia oe; no ka mea, ua hoakaka mai oe ia makou i ka ke alii mea.
24 Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he went and said thus unto him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon; bring me in before the king, and I will show unto the king the interpretation.
Alaila, hele aku la o Daniela io Arioka la, i ka mea a ke alii i hoonoho ai e pepehi i ka poe naauao ma Babulona; i aku la ia ia, Mai pepehi i ka poe naauao o Babulona; e alakai oe ia'u imua i ke alo o ke alii, a na'u no e hoakaka i ke alii i ka hoike.
25 Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Judah, that will make known unto the king the interpretation.
Alaila, wikiwiki iho la o Arioka i ke alakai ia Daniela imua o ke alii; i aku la ia ia, Ua loaa ia'u ke kanaka no ka poe pio o Iuda, oia ka mea nana e hoakaka i ke alii i ka hoike.
26 The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto me the dream which I have seen, and the interpretation thereof?
Olelo mai la ke alii ia Daniela, i ka mea i kapaia o Beletesaza, i mai, E hiki anei ia oe, ke hoakaka mai ia'u i ka moe uhane a'u i ike ai a me kona ano?
27 Daniel answered before the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded can neither wise men, enchanters, magicians, nor soothsayers, show unto the king;
Olelo aku la o Daniela imua i ke alo o ke alii, i aku, O ka mea ikea ole a ke alii i koi mai ai, aole e hiki i ka poe naauao, a me ka poe akamai, a me ka poe magoi, a me na kilokilolani ke hoakaka i ke alii;
28 but there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and he hath made known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these:
Aka, aia ma ka lani ke Akua, ka mea e hoike mai i na mea i ike ole ia; oia ka mea e hoike mai i ke alii, ia Nebukaneza i na mea o hiki mai ana i na la mahope. O kau moe uhane, a me ka lia o kou poo ma kou wahi moe, penei no ia;
29 as for thee, O king, thy thoughts came [into thy mind] upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter; and he that revealeth secrets hath made known to thee what shall come to pass.
A o oe, e ke alii, ua kupu kou manao ma kou wahi moe, no na mea e hiki mai ana mahope: a o ka mea hoike i na mea i ikea ole, nana no e hoakaka mai ia oe i na mea e hiki mai ana:
30 But 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 thou mayest know the thoughts of thy heart.
A owau nei hoi, aole i hoakakaia mai ia'u keia mea ikea ole, no ka oi ana o ka naauao iloko o'u mamua o ko kekahi mea e ola ana; aka, i hoakakaia aku ai i ke alii ka hoike, a i ike no hoi oe i ka manao o kou naau iho.
31 Thou, O king, sawest, and, behold, a great image. This image, which was mighty, and whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the aspect thereof was terrible.
O oe, e ke alii, ua ike oe, aia hoi, he kii nui. O ua kii la, he mea e kona olinolino, ua ku mai ia imua ou, a o kona helehelena he mea weliweli loa ia.
32 As for this image, its head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass,
O ke poo o ua kii la, he gula maemae ia, o kona umauma a me na lima he kala ia, o kona opu a me na uha he keleawe ia.
33 its legs of iron, its feet part of iron, and part of clay.
O kona mau wawae he hao ia, a o kona mau kapuwai he hao kekahi, a he palolo kekahi.
34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon its feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them in pieces.
Ike aku la oe, aia hoi, he pohaku i kalai lima ole ia, oia ka i kui mai i ua kii la ma kona mau kapuwai hao me ka palolo, a weluwelu iho ia.
35 Then 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 smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
Alaila, ua okaoka loa iho la ka hao, a me ka palolo, a me ke keleawe, ke kala, a me ke gula; a ua lilo lakou me he opala la ma ke kahua hehi o ke kau: a ua puhiia hoi e ka makani, aole wahi i loaa no lakou; aka, o ua pohaku la i kui i ke kii, ua lilo ia i mauna nui a piha ka honua ia ia.
36 This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
Oia iho no ua moe la; a e hoakaka aku hoi makou i kona hoike imua o ke alii.
37 Thou, O king, art king of kings, unto whom the God of heaven hath given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the glory;
O oe no, e ke alii, he alii oe o na'lii; a ua haawi mai no ke Akua o ka lani ia oe i ke aupuni, a me ka mana, a me ka ikaika, a me ka hanohano.
38 and wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens hath he given into thy hand, and hath made thee to rule over them all: thou art the head of gold.
A ma na wahi a pau i nohoia e na kanaka, ua haawi oia i na holoholona o ke kula, a me na manu o ka lewa iloko o kou lima, a ua hooalii mai ia oe maluna o na mea a pau. O oe no ua poo gula la.
39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee; and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
A mahope o kou e hookuia ana he aupuni e, ua emi mai ia mahope o kou; a o ke kolu o ke aupuni [e hookuia mai] he keleawe ia; oia ka mea e alii ana maluna o ka honua a pau.
40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron, forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things; and as iron that crusheth all these, shall it break in pieces and crush.
A o ka ha o ke aupuni e like auanei kona ikaika me he hao la: no ka. mea, o ka hao ka mea e weluwelu ai, a e okaoka loa ai na mea a pau; a e like me ka hao i hooweluwelu liilii ai i keia mau mea a pau, pela no oia e okaoka loa ai.
41 And whereas thou sawest 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, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
A i kou ike ana i na kapuwai a me na manamana wawae he palolo a ka potera kekahi, a he hao kekahi, e maheleia ana ke aupuni; aka, o ka ikaika o ka hao kekahi mea iloko ona, e like me kou ike ana i ka hao i huipuia'i me ka palolo.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
E like me ua mau manamana wawae la he hao kekahi a he palolo kekahi, pela keia aupuni, he ikaika kekahi, a he nawaliwali kekahi.
43 And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men; but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron doth not mingle with clay.
A me kou ike ana i ka hao i huipuia me ka palolo, pela lakou i huipuia'i me ka hua o kanaka; aole nae e pili pono kekahi i kekahi, e like me ka hao, aole pili pono i ka palolo.
44 And in the days of those kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed, nor shall the sovereignty thereof be left to another people; but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
Ma na la o keia poe alii, e kukulu mai ai ke Akua o ka lani i aupuni mau loa, aole hoi e hoohioloia ia aupuni; aole nae ia e lilo no ka lahuikanaka e, aka, ia ia no e weluwelu hilii auanei a okaoka loa keia mau aupuni a pau, a e mau loa aku ana no ia.
45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
A i kou ike ana i ua pohaku la i kalai lima ole ia'i mailoko mai o ka mauna, i weluwelu liilii ai ka hao, a me ke keleawe, a me ka palolo, a me ke kala, a me ke gula; oia ko ke Akua kiekie hoike ana mai i ke alii i na mea e hiki mai ana mahope; ua oiaio ka moe, a o kona hoike ua paa loa ia.
46 Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell upon his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odors unto him.
Alaila, moe iho la o Nebukaneza ke alii ilalo ka maka, a hoomana aku la ia Daniela; a kauoha aku la oia i mohai aku lakou ia ia i ka mohai a me na mea ala.
47 The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, seeing thou hast been able to reveal this secret.
Olelo mai la ke alii ia Daniela, i mai, He oiaio no o ko oukou Akua he Akua ia o na akua, a he Haku o na'lii, oia hoi ka mea e hoakaka mai i na mea i ike ole ia, no ka mea, ia oe no e hiki ai ke hoakaka mai i keia mea i ike ole ia.
48 Then 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.
Alaila, hoolilo ae la ke alii ia Daniela i kanaka nui, haawi hoi ia ia i na makana he nui wale, a hoolilo ia ia i kiaaina o na aina a pau ma Babulona, a i luna hoi maluna o ka poe naauao a pau o Babulona.
49 And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel was in the gate of the king.
A noi aku la o Daniela i ke alii, a hoonoho iho la oia ia Saderaka, a me Mesaka, a me Abedenego, maluna o ka oihana e pili ana i ka aina o Babulona: aka, o Daniela ua nobo ia ma ka ipuka o ke alii.
