Daniel 2
1 And, in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, —and his spirit, was troubled, and, his sleep, had gone from him.
Nebukhanezar ram kah a kum bae ah Nebukhanezar loh mang a man tih a mueihla a cahoeh dongah amah khaw a ih a hoelh pah.
2 So the king gave word to call for the sacred scribes and for the magicians, and for the users of incantations, and for the Chaldeans, that they might tell the king his dreams, —they came in therefore, and stood before the king.
Te dongah manghai loh hmayuep neh khungvatuk khaw, hlangbi neh manghai kah a mang aka thui la Khalden rhoek khaw khue hamla a thui pah. Te dongah a pha uh neh manghai mikhmuh ah pai uh.
3 And the king, said to them, A dream, have I dreamed, —and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.
Te vaengah manghai loh amih te, “Mang ka man tih mang te ming hamla ka mueihla a cahoeh,” a ti nah.
4 Then spake the Chaldeans to the king, in Aramaic, —O king, to the ages, live! Tell the dream to thy servants, and, the interpretation, we will declare.
Khalden rhoek loh manghai te Aramaih ol la, “Manghai tah, dungyan la hing pai saeh. Mang te na tueihyoeih rhoek taengah thui lamtah na tueihyoeih loh thuicaihnah ka phoe eh?,” a ti nauh.
5 The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The word from me, is unalterable: If ye shall not make known to me the dream and the interpretation thereof, ye shall be cut in pieces, and, your houses, into a dunghill, shall be turned;
Manghai loh a doo tih Khalden rhoek te, “Kai lamkah ol he cak coeng. Ka mang neh a thuicaihnah na mingpha sak pawt atah maehpoel la n'sah vetih na im te kawnhnawt om ni.
6 but, if, the dream and the interpretation thereof, ye will declare, gifts and a present and great dignity, shall ye receive from before me, —therefore, the dream and the interpretation thereof, declare ye unto me.
Tedae mang neh a thuicaihnah te na phoe uh atah kai taeng lamkah kutdoe, thapang neh thangpomnah muep na dang uh ni. Mang neh a thuicaihnah te kai taengah phoe uh dae,” a ti nah.
7 They answered again and said, —Let, the king, tell, the dream, to his servants, and, the interpretation thereof, we will declare.
Koep a doo uh tih, “Manghai kah mang te a tueihyoeih taengah thui saeh lamtah a thuicaihnah kam phoe uh eh,” a ti nauh.
8 The king answered and said, Of a certainty, I know, that, time, ye, would gain, —merely because ye see that, unalterable, from me, is the word:
Manghai loh a doo tih, “Kai lamkah ol a cak te na hmuh dongah nangmih a tue na yuengyet uh tila rhep ka ming.
9 That, if, the dream, ye shall not make known to me, one and the same, is the decree, and, a lying and wicked word, have ye agreed to speak before me, that meanwhile the time may be changed, —therefore, the dream, tell ye me, so shall I know that, the interpretation thereof, ye can declare for me.
Ka mang te na mingpha sak uh pawt atah nangmih oltlueh pakhat ni a om. Laithae ol neh a tue a hoilae hil ka taengah a hong thui ham na cai khaw na cai uh. Mang te kai taengah thui uh dae lamtah kai hamla a thuingaihnah nan phoe uh te ka ming eh?,” a ti nah.
10 The Chaldeans answered before the king and said, There is not a man upon the earth, who can declare, the matter of the king, —although indeed, there is no king, chief ruler who, a thing like this, hath asked of any sacred scribe or magician or Chaldean;
Manghai taengkah Khalden rhoek loh a doo uh tih, “Manghai kah ol phoe hamla aka noeng te diklai ah hlang a om moenih. Boeilen neh aka hung manghai boeih long khaw he bang ol he hmayuep, rhaitonghma neh Khalden boeih he a dawt noek moenih.
11 and, the thing which the king hath asked, is difficult, and, none other, is there, who can declare it before the king, —saving the gods whose dwelling is, not with flesh.
Manghai kah a dawt he tongmang ol tih manghai taengah te aka phoe thai he pakhat khaw a om moenih. Pathen rhoek pawt atah amih pumsa lakli kah khosaknah he te bang a om moenih,” a ti uh.
12 For this cause, the king, was provoked and exceedingly indignant, —and gave word to destroy all the wise men of Babylon;
He kong dongah he manghai tah sai tih a thintoek muep. Te dongah Babylon hlang cueih boeih te thup hamla a thui.
13 and, the decree, went forth, that, the wise men, should be slain, —and they sought Daniel and his companions that they might be slain.
Hlang cueih ngawn hamla oltlueh a khuen dongah Daniel neh a hui khaw ngawn hamla a tlap uh.
14 Immediately, Daniel, made answer with prudence and discretion, to Arioch, chief of the executioners of the king, —who had come forth to slay the wise men of Babylon:
Te dongah Babylon hlang cueih te ngawn hamla aka cet manghai kah imtawt boeilen Aryawk te Daniel loh khuelnah neh saithainah neh a mael sak.
15 he began to speak and said to Arioch the king’s captain, —For what cause, is the decree raging forth from before the king? Then did Arioch make the matter known unto Daniel.
Manghai aka hung Aryawk te a doo tih, “Balae tih manghai taeng lamkah oltlueh he a tok aih?” a ti nah hatah ol te Aryawk loh Daniel te a ming sak.
16 So Daniel entered in, and desired of the king, —that, an appointed time, he would give him, and then, the interpretation, he would declare unto the king.
Te dongah Daniel te cet tih amah te a tue a paek phoeiah thuingaihnah te manghai mah taengah thui pah hamla manghai taengah a bih.
17 Then Daniel, to his own house, departed, —and, to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, made the matter known;
Te phoeiah Daniel te a im la mael tih a hui rhoek Hananiah, Mishael neh Azariah taengah olka te a thuicaih pah.
18 that, tender compassion, they might seek from before the God of the heavens, concerning this secret, —that Daniel and his companions, might not be destroyed, with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
He oldung dongah Daniel neh a hui rhoek neh Babylon kah hlang cueih a ngen te thup pawt hamla vaan Pathen taeng lamkah haidamnah a bih.
19 Then, unto Daniel—in a vision of the night, the secret was revealed, —whereupon, Daniel, blessed the God of the heavens:
Te khoyin kah mangthui dongah tah Daniel taengah oldung te a thoeng pah. Te dongah Daniel loh vaan kah Pathen te a koeh.
20 Daniel responded, and said, Let the name of God be blessed from age to age, —in that wisdom and might, to him belong;
Daniel loh a doo tih, “Pathen tah a ming om pai saeh, khosuen lamloh kumhal duela a yoethen pai. Cueihnah neh thayung thamal khaw amah kah ni.
21 And, he, changeth times and seasons, removeth kings, and setteth up kings, —giving wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to them who are skilled in understanding:
Amah loh a tue neh khoning a hoilae. Manghai rhoek te a khoe tih manghai patoeng a thoh. Aka cueih taengah cueihnah neh yakmingnah aka thuicaih taengah mingnah a paek.
22 He, revealeth the deep things, and the hidden, —knoweth what is in the darkness, and, light, with him, doth dwell.
Amah loh a thuuk neh a thuh khaw a tueng sak. Hmuepnah neh vangnah khuikah te khaw a ming. Te dongah vangnah tah anih taengah om.
23 Unto the, O God of my fathers, do I render thanks and praise, in that, wisdom and might, thou hast given unto me, —yea, already, hast thou made known to me that which we desired of thee, for, the matter of the king, hast thou made known unto us.
A pa rhoek kah Pathen namah te kang uem tih kang oep. Kai he ka taengah cueihnah neh thayung thamal nan paek. Namah taengah kam bih bangla kai nan ming sak coeng tih manghai kah olka te kaimih nan ming sak,” a ti.
24 Therefore, Daniel entered in unto Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon, —he went in, and, thus, he said unto him, The wise men of Babylon, do not thou destroy, bring me in before the king, and, the interpretation—unto the king, will I declare.
Te dongah he kong neh Daniel te manghai loh a hmoel tih Babylon hlang cueih rhoek thup hamla aka cet Aryawk taengla cet. Te phoeiah anih te, “Babylon hlang cueih rhoek te thup boeh, kai he manghai taengla n'hui lamtah a thuingaihnah te manghai taengah ka phoe eh?,” a ti nah.
25 Thereupon, Arioch—with haste, brought in Daniel before the king, —and, thus, he said to him—I have found a man of the sons of the exile of Judah, who, the interpretation—unto the king, will make known.
Te dongah Aryawk loh Daniel te manghai taengah thintawn la a khuen tih, “Manghai taengah a thuingaihnah thuicaih hamla Judah hlangsol koca lamkah hlang ka hmuh,” a ti nah.
26 The king answered and said unto Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, —Art thou able to make known unto me the dream which I have seen, and the interpretation thereof?
Manghai loh a doo tih Daniel la a ming aka om Belteshazzar te, “Na om pai a? Mang ka man neh a thuingaihnah te kai taengah thuicaih hamla aka noeng, na om rhoe a?” a ti nah.
27 Daniel answered before the king, and said, —The secret which the king hath asked, the wise men, the magicians, the sacred scribes, the astrologers, are not able to declare unto the king;
Daniel loh manghai taengah a doo tih, “Manghai kah na dawt he oldung tih manghai taengah phoe hamla aka noeng hlang cueih, rhaitonghma, hmayuep rhoek, aisi aka suep a om moenih.
28 but there is a God in the heavens, who revealeth secrets, and hath made known to King Nebuchadnezzar, what shall come to pass, in the afterpart of the days: Thy dream and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are, these: —
Tedae oldung aka tueng he vaan ah Pathen om tih hmailong khohnin ah metla a om ham khaw manghai Nebukhadnezzar te na thingkong dongah na mang neh na lu dongkah mangthui neh he he han thuicaih coeng.
29 As for thee, O king, thy thoughts upon thy bed, arose regarding what should come to pass hereafter; and, he that revealeth secrets, made known to thee what shall come to pass.
Manghai nang, na thingkong dongkah na poeknah te he lamloh aka om la thoeng coeng. Aka om ham te ni oldung aka tueng loh nang m'ming sak.
30 But, as for me—not for any wisdom that is in me, more than any of the living, is, this secret, revealed to me, —therefore, it is in order that, the interpretation—unto the king, they should make known, and that, the thoughts of thy heart, thou shouldst get to know.
Kai khaw ka taengah oldung a tueng he khaw mulhing boeih lakah kamah kah cueihnah a om dongah moenih. Tedae te kong dongah he a thuingaihnah te manghai taengah a thuicaih vetih na thinko kah poeknah loh a ming nah ham ni.
31 As for thee, O king, thou wast looking, when lo! a great image, this image, being mighty, and the brightness thereof surpassing, was standing before thee, —and, the appearance thereof, was terrible.
Manghai nang, na hmuh tih na om coeng. Na mikhmuh ah muei pakhat la aka pai te. Tekah muei tah len sang tih a aa yet. A suisak mah rhimom coeng.
32 As for this image, its head, was of fine gold, its breast and its arms, were of silver, —its belly and its thighs, of bronze;
Te muei kah a lu te sui cim, a rhang neh a ban rhoi te cak, a bung neh a phai rhoi tah rhohum,
33 its legs, of iron, —and, its feet, part of them, of iron, and, part of them, of clay.
A khotanlan rhoi te thi, a khobom te a ngawncawn te thi tih a ngawncawn dikpo la om.
34 Thou didst look, until that a stone tare itself away, not by the aid of hands, and smote the image upon its feet, which were of iron and clay, —and they were broken in pieces.
Na sawt li vaengah kut loh a saii mueh lungto te coe tih muei te a khobom dongkah a dae. Te vaengah thi neh dikpo khaw phaeng a nuei pah.
35 Then were broken in pieces at once, the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold, and became like chaff out of the summer threshing-floors, and the wind, carried them away, and, no place, was found for them, —but, the stone that smote the image, became a mighty rock, and filled all the land.
Te phoeiah thi, dikpo, rhohum, cak neh sui khaw pakhat la phaeng nuei uh. Te dongah khohal cangtil hmuen kah cangkik bangla om tih te rhoek te khohli loh a yawn. Te dongah te rhoek te a hmuen boeih hmu voel pawh. Tedae muei dongah aka cu lungto te tlang sang la poeh tih diklai pum ah bae.
36 This, is the dream, and, the interpretation thereof, we will tell before the king.
Mang kah a thuingaihnah te manghai taengah ka thui uh pawn eh.
37 Thou, O king, art the king of kings, —for, the God of the heavens, hath given unto thee, the kingship, the might, the power and the dignity;
Manghai nang, namah he manghai rhoek kah manghai ni. Vaan kah Pathen loh ram neh thadueng khaw, sarhi neh thangpomnah khaw namah taengah m'paek coeng.
38 and, wheresoever the sons of men do dwell, the wild beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens, hath he given into thy hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou, art the head of gold.
Khosa, khosa boeih khuikah hlang koca rhoek khaw, kohong rhamsa neh vaan kah vaa khaw na kut ah m'paek. A cungkuem soah nang m'boei sak tih nang te na lu sui la hang khueh.
39 And, after thee, shall arise another kingdom, inferior to thee, —and another—a third kingdom, of bronze, which shall bear rule throughout all the earth.
Nang phoeiah tah nang lakah diklai la aka yalh ram pakhat pai ni. A pathum dongkah ram tahrhohum vetih diklai boeih soah boei ni.
40 And, the fourth kingdom, shall be hard as iron, —in like manner as iron breaketh in pieces and crusheth all things, —even as iron which bringeth to ruins all these, shall it break in pieces and bring to ruins.
A pali kah ram tah thi ning bangla om ni. He kong ah he thi loh a neet tih boeih a noeng. Te dongah thi bangla a cungkuem he a phop coeng tih a nuei a pil la om ni.
41 And, whereas thou sawest the feet and the toes, part of them of potter’s clay, and part of them of iron, the kingdom, shall be, divided, and, of the hardness of the iron, shall there be in it, —forasmuch as thou sawest, the iron, combined with the miry clay;
Na hmuh bangla khobom neh khodawn tah a ngawncawn te ambop kah dikpo tih a ngawncawn thi. A khuiah thi dongkah thacang om cakhaw ram te aka rhek aka boe la om ni. Te kong ah ni thi neh laicang dikpo neh a thoek na hmuh.
42 and, the toes of the feet, part of them, iron, and, part, of clay, —some part of the kingdom, shall be strong, but, a part thereof, shall be brittle;
Khobom dongkah khodawn khaw a ngawncawn, a ngawncawn thi tih, a ngawncawn a ngawncawn tah dikpo. Te dongah ram ngawncawn te a ning la om vetih a ngawncawn tah a poo la om ni.
43 and, whereas thou sawest, the iron, combined with the miry clay, they shall be combined with the seed of men, but shall not cleave firmly one to another, —lo! as iron is not to be combined with clay.
Na hmuh bangla thi neh laicang dikpo a thoek dongah hlang kah tiingan thoek uh ni. Tedae neh thi neh dikpo a thoek thai pawt bangla he neh ke khaw aka pitpom uh la om mahpawh.
44 And, in the days of those kings, shall the God of the heavens, set up, a kingdom which, to the ages, shall not be destroyed, and, the kingdom, to another people, shall not be left, —it shall break in pieces and make an end of all these kingdoms, but, itself, shall stand to the ages.
Vaan Pathen loh manghai rhoek te amamih tue vaengah a pai sak vetih a ram tah kumhal due la tim mahpawh. Ram te pilnam tloe taengah a nuei la hlah mahpawh. Ram boeih he tlum cakhaw te tah kumhal duela cak ni.
45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that, out of the rock, a stone tare itself away, but not with hands, and brake in pieces the clay, the iron, the bronze, the silver and the gold, the mighty God, hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter. Exact then is the dream, and trusty its interpretation.
He kong dongah tlang lamkah kut neh saii mueh lungto a coe na hmuh. Te dongah thi, rhohum, dikpo, cak neh sui khaw vingving nuei. Boeilen Pathen loh tahae lamloh aka om ham te manghai taengah m'ming sak. Te dongah mang he tong tih a thuingaihnah uepom coeng,” a ti nah.
46 Then, King Nebuchadnezzar, fell upon his face, and, unto Daniel, paid adoration; and, a present and sweet odours, gave he word to pour out unto him.
Te dongah manghai Nebukhadnezzar loh a maelhmai longah buluk tih Daniel taengah bakop. Te dongah khosaa neh a hlihlim te a taengah doe ham a thui pah.
47 The king answered Daniel, and said—Of a truth, your God, is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a Revealer of secrets, —seeing thou wast able to reveal this secret.
Manghai loh Daniel te a doo tih, “Nangmih kah Pathen tah oltak pai ni. Pathen rhoek kah Pathen, manghai rhoek kah Boeipa ni. He oldung tueng hamla na noeng dongah ni oldung he nan tueng,” a ti nah.
48 Then, the king, exalted, Daniel, and, many large presents, gave he unto him, and set him to be ruler over all the province of Babylon, —and chief of the nobles, over all the wise men of Babylon.
Te phoeiah manghai loh Daniel te a pomsang tih anih te boeilen kutdoe muep a paek. Babylon paeng pum soah anih te a boei sak tih Babylon hlang cueih boeih lakah boeilen khoboei la a khueh.
49 And, Daniel, desired of the king, and he appointed—over the business of the province of Babylon—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, —but, Daniel himself, was in the gate of the king.
Daniel loh manghai taengah a bih tih Sadrakh, Meshach neh Abednego rhoek te Babylon paeng kah taemnah soah a khueh. Te vaengah Daniel tah manghai vongka ah kho a sak.
