Daniēla 3
1 Ķēniņš Nebukadnecars lika taisīt tēlu no zelta; tam bija augstums sešdesmit olektis, un platums sešas olektis; to viņš uzcēla Bābeles valstī, Duras klajumā.
Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height [was] threescore cubits, [and] the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.
2 Un ķēniņš Nebukadnecars sūtīja un sapulcināja lielkungus, valdītājus, zemes soģus, tiesas kungus, uzraugus, runas kungus, tiesnešus un visus valsts valdniekus, ka tie nāktu, to tēlu iesvētīt, ko ķēniņš Nebukadnecars bija uzcēlis.
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
3 Tad sanāca tie lielkungi, valdītāji, zemes soģi, tiesas kungi, uzraugi, runas kungi, tiesneši un visi valsts valdnieki uz šī tēla iesvētīšanu, ko ķēniņš Nebukadnecars bija uzcēlis, un tie stāvēja tā tēla priekšā, ko Nebukadnecars bija uzcēlis.
Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
4 Un tas izsaucējs izsauca ar stipru balsi: jums top piekodināts, jūs tautas, ļaudis un valodas,
Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,
5 Kad jūs dzirdēsiet bazūnes skaņu un trumetes, kokles, vijoles, somastabules, jaukas dziesmas un visādus mūzikas rīkus, tad jums būs nomesties un to zelta tēlu pielūgt, ko ķēniņš Nebukadnecars uzcēlis.
[That] at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up:
6 Un kas nenometīsies un nepielūgs, tas tai pašā stundā taps iemests degošā ceplī.
And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
7 Kad nu visi ļaudis dzirdēja bazūnes skaņu un trumetes, kokles, vijoles, somastabules un visādus mūzikas rīkus, tad visi ļaudis, tautas un valodas nometās un pielūdza to zelta tēlu, ko ķēniņš Nebukadnecars bija uzcēlis.
Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down [and] worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
8 Tai pašā laikā kādi Kaldeju vīri piegāja un apsūdzēja Jūdus.
Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews.
9 Tie iesāka un sacīja uz ķēniņu Nebukadnecaru: lai ķēniņš dzīvo mūžīgi!
They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever.
10 Tu, ķēniņ, esi pavēlējis, ka visiem cilvēkiem, kad tie dzird bazūnes skaņu un trumetes, kokles, vijoles, somastabules, jaukas dziesmas un visādus mūzikas rīkus, būs nomesties un to zelta tēlu pielūgt,
Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, shall fall down and worship the golden image:
11 Un ka to, kas pie zemes nenometīsies un nepielūgs, būs iemest degošā ceplī.
And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, [that] he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
12 Te ir Jūdu vīri, ko tu esi iecēlis par Bābeles valsts valdniekiem, Sadrahs, Mesahs un AbedNegus, šie vīri neliek vērā, ko tu, ķēniņ, esi pavēlējis, un negodā tavus dievus un nepielūdz to zelta tēlu, ko tu esi uzcēlis.
There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
13 Tad Nebukadnecars ar dusmām un bardzību pavēlēja atvest Sadrahu, Mesahu un AbedNegu. Un tie vīri tapa atvesti ķēniņa priekšā.
Then Nebuchadnezzar in [his] rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then they brought these men before the king.
14 Tad Nebukadnecars iesāka un uz tiem sacīja: vai jūs, Sadrah, Mesah un AbedNegu, tīši manus dievus necienījāt un to zelta tēlu nepielūdzāt, ko es esmu uzcēlis?
Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, [Is it] true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?
15 Nu tad, taisāties, kad jūs dzirdēsiet bazūnes skaņu un trumetes, kokles, vijoles, somastabules, jaukas dziesmas un visādus mūzikas rīkus, tad nometaties un pielūdziet to tēlu, ko es esmu taisījis, bet ja jūs to nepielūgsiet, tad jūs tai pašā stundā tapsiet iemesti degošā ceplī; jo kurš ir tas Dievs, kas jūs no manām rokām varētu izpestīt?
Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; [well: ] but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who [is] that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?
16 Tad Sadrahs, Mesahs un AbedNegus atbildēja un sacīja uz ķēniņu Nebukadnecaru: mums nevajag uz šo lietu atbildēt.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we [are] not careful to answer thee in this matter.
17 Redzi, mūsu Dievs, ko mēs godājam, gan ir varens mūs izglābt no degoša cepļa un mūs arī izpestīt no tavas rokas, ak ķēniņ.
If it be [so], our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver [us] out of thine hand, O king.
18 Un jebšu Viņš to arī nedarītu, taču tev būs zināt, ka mēs tavus dievus negribam godāt nedz pielūgt to zelta tēlu, ko tu esi taisījis.
But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
19 Tad Nebukadnecars apskaitās, un viņa vaiga izskats pārvērtās pret Sadrahu, Mesahu un AbedNegu, un viņš atbildēja un pavēlēja, cepli septiņkārt karstāku kurināt nekā to mēdza kurināt.
Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: [therefore] he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.
20 Un viņš pavēlēja tiem stiprākiem vīriem, kas bija viņa karaspēkā, siet Sadrahu, Mesahu un AbedNegu un iemest degošā ceplī.
And he commanded the most mighty men that [were] in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, [and] to cast [them] into the burning fiery furnace.
21 Tā šie vīri tapa saistīti ar saviem mēteļiem, kurpēm, cepurēm un citām drēbēm un iemesti degošā ceplī.
Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their [other] garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
22 Kad nu ķēniņa vārds drīz bija jāizdara un ceplis bija briesmīgi karsts, tad tās liesmas nomaitāja tos vīrus, kas Sadrahu, Mesahu un AbedNegu iemeta.
Therefore because the king’s commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.
23 Bet tie trīs vīri, Sadrahs, Mesahs un AbedNegus, iekrita saistīti tai degošā ceplī.
And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
24 Tad ķēniņš Nebukadnecars iztrūcinājās un pacēlās ātri un sacīja uz saviem runas kungiem: vai mēs neesam trīs vīrus saistītus metuši ugunī? Tie atbildēja un sacīja uz ķēniņu: tā tas ir, kungs ķēniņ.
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, [and] spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.
25 Viņš atbildēja un sacīja: raugi, es redzu četrus vīrus vaļā staigājam ugunī, un tiem nekas nekaiš un tā ceturtā izskats ir kā kādam dievu dēlam.
He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.
26 Tad Nebukadnecars piegāja pie tā degošā cepļa durvīm, iesāka un sacīja: Sadrah, Mesah un AbedNegu, jūs tā visuaugstākā Dieva kalpi, izejiet ārā un nāciet šurp. Tad Sadrahs, Mesahs un AbedNegus izgāja no uguns ārā.
Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, [and] spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come [hither]. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, came forth of the midst of the fire.
27 Un tie lielkungi, valdītāji, zemes soģi un ķēniņa runas kungi sapulcinājās, šos vīrus apraudzīt, ka uguns viņu miesas nebija pārvarējis, un ka viņu galvas mati nebija apsviluši, un viņu mēteļi nebija aizskarti, ka arī nekāda deguma smaka pie tiem netapa saosta.
And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king’s counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them.
28 Tad Nebukadnecars iesāka un sacīja: slavēts lai ir Sadraha, Mesaha un AbedNegus Dievs, kas Savu eņģeli sūtījis un Savus kalpus atpestījis, kas uz Viņu paļāvušies un pārkāpuši ķēniņa vārdu un savas miesas nodevuši, lai citu dievu ne godātu nedz pielūgtu kā vien savu Dievu.
[Then] Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed [be] the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.
29 Tādēļ es pavēlu, ka visus ļaudis, tautas un mēles, kas Sadraha, Mesaha un AbedNegus Dievu zaimo, būs sasist gabalos un viņu namus darīt par mēslu čupu. Jo cita tāda Dieva nav, kas tā varētu atpestīt;
Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort.
30 Un ķēniņš Sadraham, Mesaham un AbedNegum deva lielu varu Bābeles valstī.
Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, in the province of Babylon.
