Daniel 1
1 In the third year of the reign of Joakim king of Juda, Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and besieged it.
Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakim ukhaih saning thumto haih naah, vangpui ven khoep hanah Babylon siangpahrang Nebuchanezzar loe Jerusalem ah angzoh.
2 And the Lord delivered into his hands Joakim the king of Juda, and part of the vessels of the house of God: and he carried them away into the land of Sennaar, to the house of his god, and the vessels he brought into the treasure house of his god.
Sithaw mah Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakim hoi Sithaw imthung ih thoemto hmuennawk to Nebuchanezzar ban ah paek; anih mah to hmuennawk to angmah sithaw im ohhaih Shinar prae thungah phawh moe, angmah sithaw im ih hmuen patunghaih ahmuen ah suek.
3 And the king spoke to Asphenez the master of the eunuchs, that he should bring in some of the children of Israel, and of the king’s seed and of the princes,
To naah siangpahrang mah, tangyat mii kadueh kaminawk ukkung Ashpenaz to kawk moe, Israel caanawk, siangpahrang caanawk, oep kaom angmah ih ukkung angraeng ih caanawk,
4 Children in whom there was no blemish, well favoured, and skillful in all wisdom, acute in knowledge, and instructed in science, and such as might stand in the king’s palace, that he might teach them the learning, and the tongue of the Chaldeans.
coek koi om ai, tungkrang kahoih, palunghahaih, panoek thaihaih, hmuenmae sak thoemhaih katawn, siangpahrang imthung ah toksah thaih, Khaldian lok hoiah ca patuk thaih, thoemto thendoengnawk to hoih hanah lok a paek.
5 And the king appointed them a daily provision, of his own meat, and of the wine of which he drank himself, that being nourished three years, afterwards they might stand before the king.
Siangpahrang mah caak ih buh hoi a naek ih misurtui to nihcae hanah ni thokkruek a paek; siangpahrang hma ah angdoet moe, a tok sak pae hanah, nihcae to saning thumto thung patuk.
6 Now there were among them of the children of Juda, Daniel, Ananias, Misael, and Azarias.
Nihcae thungah Judah kami Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael hoi Azariah cae to athum o:
7 And the master of the eunuchs gave them names: to Daniel, Baltassar: to Ananias, Sidrach: to Misael, Misach: and to Azarias, Abdenago.
to naah tangyat mii kadueh kaminawk ukkung mah nihcae han ahmin kangtha to paek; Daniel to Belteshazzar; Hananiah to Shadrak; Mishael to Meshak; Azariah to Abed-Nego, tiah a paek.
8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not be defiled with the king’s table, nor with the wine which he drank: and he requested the master of the eunuchs that he might not be defiled.
Toe Daniel loe siangpahrang mah caak ih buh, a naek ih misurtui hoi khosak amhnong han ai ah poek; to pongah panuet thok ah khosak han ai ah to ih tangyat mii kadueh kaminawk ukkung kalen koek khaeah tahmenhaih a hnik.
9 And God gave to Daniel grace and mercy in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.
Sithaw toksakhaih rang hoiah Daniel loe to ih tangyat mii kadueh kaminawk ukkung kalen koek mik hnukah palung kap koi kaom kami ah oh.
10 And the prince of the eunuchs said to Daniel: I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed you meat and drink: who if he should see your faces leaner than those of the other youths your equals, you shall endanger my head to the king.
Tangyat mii kadueh kaminawk ukkung mah Daniel khaeah, Kaimah ih siangpahrang to ka zit, siangpahrang mah na caak moe, na naek han koi buh aan to suekcoek boeh; to buh aan to na caa ai pongah, anih mah nang ih krang to nangmah hoi saning anghmong thendoengnawk ih krang pong kasae kue ah hnu nahaeloe, siangpahrang mah ka lu hae takroek pat tih, tiah a naa.
11 And Daniel said to Malasar, whom the prince of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Ananias, Misael, and Azarias:
To naah tangyat mii kadueh kaminawk ukkung mah Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael hoi Azariah cae toep hanah, qoih ih Melzar khaeah, Daniel mah,
12 Try, I beseech thee, thy servants for ten days, and let pulse be given us to eat, and water to drink:
tahmenhaih kang hnik, na tamnanawk hae, ni hato thung tanoek ah; aan hoi tui khue mah na paek o nasoe.
13 And look upon our faces, and the faces of the children that eat of the king’s meat: and as thou shalt see, deal with thy servants.
To pacoengah siangpahrang ih buh caa thendoengnawk ih krang hoi kaicae ih krang to na hma ah khingh o nasoe; to naah nang hnuk o ih baktih toengah, na tamnanawk nuiah sah oh, tiah a naa.
14 And when he had heard these words, he tried them for ten days.
To naah nihcae mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah anih mah naakrak pae pongah, ni hato thung nihcae to tanoek.
15 And after ten days their faces appeared fairer and fatter than all the children that ate of the king’s meat.
Ni hato pacoengah nihcae loe siangpahrang ih buh caa thendoengnawk pongah kranghoih o moe, taksa doeh hoih o kue.
16 So Malasar took their portions, and the wine that they should drink: and he gave them pulse.
To pongah toepkung Melzar mah nihcae taham ah suek ih caaknaek to takhoe ving moe, nihcae hanah aan khue to a paek.
17 And to these children God gave knowledge, and understanding in every book, and wisdom: but to Daniel the understanding also of all visions and dreams.
Sithaw mah hae thendoeng palitonawk khaeah, panoekhaih, ca boih kophaih hoi palunghahaih to paek; Daniel loe hnuksakhaih hoiah amang panoek thaihaih to tawnh.
18 And when the days were ended, after which the king had ordered they should be brought in: the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nabuchodonosor.
Saning koep boeh moe, nihcae siangpahrang im ah caeh haih han atue phak naah loe, tangyat mii kadueh kaminawk ukkung mah nihcae to Nebuchadnezzar hma ah caeh haih.
19 And when the king had spoken to them, there were not found among them all such as Daniel, Ananias, Misael, and Azarias: and they stood in the king’s presence.
Siangpahrang mah nihcae to lokdueng; to ih kaminawk boih thungah Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, Azariah cae hoi anghmong kami mi doeh om ai; to pongah nihcae loe siangpahrang hma ah toksak o.
20 And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the diviners, and wise men, that were in all his kingdom.
Palunghahaih hoi panoekhaih bang ih hmuennawk boih to siangpahrang mah caek tanoek naah, nihcae loe a ukhaih prae thung boih ih miklet kop kaminawk hoi banpadae khet kop kaminawk pongah alet hato hoih o kue, tiah a hnuk.
21 And Daniel continued even to the first year of king Cyrus.
Daniel loe Cyrus siangpahrang ukhaih saningto haih khoek to tok sak.
