Daniel 5
1 Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
Цар Валтасар учини велику гозбу хиљади кнезова својих, и пијаше вино пред хиљадом њих.
2 Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded that the golden and silver vessels which Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem be brought to him, that the king and his lords, his wives and his concubines, might drink from them.
Напив се вина Валтасар заповеди да се донесу судови златни и сребрни, које беше однео Навуходоносор отац му из цркве јерусалимске, да из њих пију цар и кнезови му и жене његове и иноче његове.
3 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of God’s house which was at Jerusalem; and the king and his lords, his wives and his concubines, drank from them.
И донесоше златне судове које беху однели из цркве дома Господњег у Јерусалиму, и пијаху из њих цар и кнезови његови, жене његове и иноче његове.
4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of bronze, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
Пијаху вино, и хваљаху богове златне и сребрне и бронзане и дрвене и камене.
5 In the same hour, the fingers of a man’s hand came out and wrote near the lamp stand on the plaster of the wall of the king’s palace. The king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
У тај час изиђоше прсти руке човечије и писаху према свећњаку по окреченом зиду од царског двора, и цар виде руку која писаше.
6 Then the king’s face was changed in him, and his thoughts troubled him; and the joints of his thighs were loosened, and his knees struck one against another.
Тада се промени лице цару, и мисли га његове узнемирише и појас се око њега распаса и колена му удараху једно о друго.
7 The king cried aloud to bring in the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, “Whoever reads this writing and shows me its interpretation shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”
Повика цар гласно, те доведоше звездаре, Халдеје и гатаре; и проговори цар и рече мудрацима вавилонским: Ко прочита ово писмо и каже ми шта значи, онај ће се обући у скерлет, и носиће златну верижицу о врату, и биће трећи господар у царству.
8 Then all the king’s wise men came in; but they could not read the writing, and couldn’t make known to the king the interpretation.
Тада приступише сви мудраци цареви; али не могоше прочитати писма нити казати цару шта значи.
9 Then King Belshazzar was greatly troubled, and his face was changed in him, and his lords were perplexed.
Тада се цар Валтасар врло узнемири, и лице му се сасвим измени; и кнезови се његови препадоше.
10 The queen by reason of the words of the king and his lords came into the banquet house. The queen spoke and said, “O king, live forever; don’t let your thoughts trouble you, nor let your face be changed.
Дође царица ради тога што се догоди цару и кнезовима његовим у кућу где беше гозба, и проговори царица и рече: Царе, да си жив довека! Да те не узнемирују мисли твоје, и да ти се лице не мења.
11 There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of your father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him. The king, Nebuchadnezzar, your father—yes, the king, your father—made him master of the magicians, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers,
Има човек у твом царству, у коме је дух светих богова; и у време оца твог нађе се у њега видело и разум и мудрост, каква је у богова, и цар Навуходоносор, отац твој, царе, постави га главарем врачарима, звездарима, Халдејима и гатарима;
12 because an excellent spirit, knowledge, understanding, interpreting of dreams, showing of dark sentences, and dissolving of doubts were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar. Now let Daniel be called, and he will show the interpretation.”
Јер велик дух и знање и разум за казивање снова и погађање загонетки и размршивање замршених ствари нађе се у Данила, коме цар наде име Валтасар; нека сада дозову Данила, и он ће казати шта значи.
13 Then Daniel was brought in before the king. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Are you that Daniel of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?
Тада Данило би доведен пред цара. Цар проговори Данилу и рече: Јеси ли ти Данило између робља Јудина, које доведе из јудејске цар отац мој?
14 I have heard of you, that the spirit of the gods is in you and that light, understanding, and excellent wisdom are found in you.
Чух за тебе да је дух светих богова у теби, и видело и разум и мудрост велика да се нађе у тебе.
15 Now the wise men, the enchanters, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known to me its interpretation; but they could not show the interpretation of the thing.
А сада су доведени преда ме мудраци, звездари, да прочитају писмо и кажу ми шта значи; али не могу да кажу шта то значи.
16 But I have heard of you, that you can give interpretations and dissolve doubts. Now if you can read the writing and make known to me its interpretation, you shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold around your neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”
А за тебе ја чух да можеш протумачити и замршене ствари размрсити. Ако, дакле, можеш прочитати ово писмо и казати ми шта значи, обући ћеш се у скерлет, и златну верижицу носићеш о врату, и бићеш трећи господар у царству.
17 Then Daniel answered before the king, “Let your gifts be to yourself, and give your rewards to another. Nevertheless, I will read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
Тада одговори Данило и рече пред царем: Дарови твоји нека теби, и подај другом поклоне своје; а писмо ћу ја прочитати цару и казати шта значи.
18 “To you, king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar your father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty.
Царе, Бог Вишњи даде царство величину и славу и част Навуходоносору, оцу твом.
19 Because of the greatness that he gave him, all the peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him. He killed whom he wanted to, and he kept alive whom he wanted to. He raised up whom he wanted to, and he put down whom he wanted to.
И од величине коју му даде сви народи, племена и језици дрхтаху пред њим и бојаху га се; убијаше кога хоћаше, и остављаше у животу кога хоћаше, узвишаваше кога хоћаше, и понижаваше кога хоћаше.
20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proudly, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him.
Али када му се подиже срце и дух му се посили у охолости, би сметнут с царског престола свог, и узеше му славу.
21 He was driven from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the animals’, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. He was fed with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of the sky, until he knew that the Most High God rules in the kingdom of men, and that he sets up over it whomever he will.
И би прогнан између људи и срце му поста као у звери, и стан му беше с дивљим магарцима, хранише га травом као говеда, и роса небеска кваси му тело, докле позна да Бог Вишњи влада царством људским, и кога хоће поставља над њим.
22 “You, his son, Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all this,
А ти, Валтасаре, сине његов, ниси понизио срца свог премда си знао све ово.
23 but have lifted up yourself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before you, and you and your lords, your wives, and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. You have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which don’t see, or hear, or know; and you have not glorified the God in whose hand your breath is, and whose are all your ways.
Него си се подигао на Господа небеског, и судове дома Његовог донесоше преда те, и писте из њих вино ти и кнезови твоји, жене твоје и иноче твоје, и ти хвали богове сребрне и златне, бронзане, гвоздене, дрвене и камене, који не виде нити чују, нити разумеју, а не слави Бога, у чијој је руци душа твоја и сви путеви твоји.
24 Then the part of the hand was sent from before him, and this writing was inscribed.
Зато од Њега би послана рука и ово писмо би написано.
25 “This is the writing that was inscribed: ‘MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.’
А ово је писмо написано: МЕНЕ, МЕНЕ, ТЕКЕЛ, УФАРСИН.
26 “This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE: God has counted your kingdom, and brought it to an end.
А ово значе те речи: МЕНЕ, бројао је Бог твоје царство и до краја избројао.
27 TEKEL: you are weighed in the balances, and are found wanting.
ТЕКЕЛ, измерен си на мерила, и нашао си се лак.
28 PERES: your kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.”
ФЕРЕС, раздељено је царство твоје, и дано Мидијанима и Персијанима.
29 Then Belshazzar commanded, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Тада заповеди Валтасар, те обукоше Данила у скерлет, и метнуше му златну верижицу око врата, и прогласише за њ да је трећи господар у царству.
30 In that night Belshazzar the Chaldean King was slain.
Исту ноћ би убијен Валтасар, цар халдејски.
31 Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.
А Дарије Мидијанин преузе царство, и беше му око шездесет и две године.
