Daniel 2

And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him.
Ary tamin'ny taona faharoa nanjakan'i Nebokadnezara dia nanonofy Nebokadnezara, ka nitebiteby ny fanahiny, ary tsy nahita torimaso izy.
Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, for to shew the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.
Dia nasain'ny mpanjaka nantsoina ny ombiasy sy ny mpisikidy sy ny mpanana ody ary ny Kaldeana hilaza amin'ny mpanjaka ny nofiny. Dia tonga ireny ka nitsangana teo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka.
And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream.
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Nanonofy aho, ka mitebiteby ta-hahalala ny nofy ny fanahiko.
Then spake the Chaldeans to the king in Syriack, O king, live for ever: tell thy servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation.
Dia niteny tamin'ny mpanjaka amin'ny teny Aramiana ireny Kaldeana ireny ka nanao hoe: Ry mpanjaka ô, ho velona mandrakizay anie ianao, ambarao aminay mpanomponao ny nofy, dia holazainay ny heviny.
The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if ye will not make known unto me the dream, with the interpretation thereof, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill.
Dia namaly ny mpanjaka ka nanao tamin'ireny Kaldeana ireny hoe: Efa niloa-bava aho; raha tsy hampahafantarinareo ahy ny nofy sy ny heviny, dia hotetitetehina ianareo, ary ny tranonareo hatao trano fivoahana.
But if ye shew the dream, and the interpretation thereof, ye shall receive of me gifts and rewards and great honour: therefore shew me the dream, and the interpretation thereof.
Fa raha milaza ny nofy sy ny heviny kosa ianareo, dia hahazo fanomezana sy valim-pitia ary voninahitra be; koa ambarao ahy ny nofy mbamin'ny heviny.
They answered again and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation of it.
Dia namaly indray ireo ka nanao hoe: Aoka ny mpanjaka hilaza ny nofy aminay mpanompony, dia hambaranay ny heviny.
The king answered and said, I know of certainty that ye would gain the time, because ye see the thing is gone from me.
Fa ny mpanjaka namaly ka nanao hoe: Fantatro marimarina fa mandany andro foana ianareo, satria hitanareo fa efa niloa-bava aho.1
But if ye will not make known unto me the dream, there is but one decree 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 shew me the interpretation thereof.
Fa raha tsy hampahafantarinareo ahy ny nofy, dia lalàna iray monja no hitondrana anareo; fa ianareo miray tetika hilaza teny lainga sy arirarira foana eto anatrehako mandra-pahatongan'izay andro mahamety; koa ambarao ahy ny nofy, dia ho fantatro fa mahalaza ny heviny amiko koa ianareo.
The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can shew the king's matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.
Ny Kaldeana namaly teo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka hoe: Tsy misy olona etỳ ambonin'ny tany mahay milaza izany nofin'ny mpanjaka izany; fa tsy mbola nisy mpanjaka, na dia izay lehibe sy mahery aza, nila zavatra toy izany tamin'ny ombiasy sy ny mpisikidy ary ny Kaldeana.
And it is a rare thing that the king requireth, and there is none other that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
Ary sarotra ny zavatra anontanian'ny mpanjaka, ka tsy misy mahay milaza izany eo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka afa-tsy ireo andriamanitra, izay tsy manam-ponenana amin'ny nofo.
For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
Dia vinitra sady tezitra indrindra ny mpanjaka noho izany, ka nasainy naringana ny olon-kendrin'i Babylona rehetra.
And the decree went forth that the wise men should be slain; and they sought Daniel and his fellows to be slain.
Ary navoaka ny didy nampamono ny olon-kendry; ary Daniela sy ny namany koa mba notadiaviny hovonoina.
Then Daniel answered with counsel and wisdom to Arioch the captain of the king's guard, which was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon:
Dia novalian'i Daniela tamin'ny fanahy sy ny fahendrena Arioka lehiben'ny mpiambina ny mpanjaka, izay nivoaka hamono ny olon-kendrin'i Babylona;
He answered and said to Arioch the king's captain, Why is the decree so hasty from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.
eny, namaly izy ka nanao tamin'i Arioka, lehibe voatendrin'ny mpanjaka, hoe: Nahoana no dia mafy toy izany ny teny avy amin'ny mpanjaka? Dia nambaran'i Arioka tamin'i Daniela ilay teny.
Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would shew the king the interpretation.
Dia niditra Daniela ka nangataka tamin'ny mpanjaka hanome andro azy, dia holazainy amin'ny mpanjaka ny hevitry ny nofy.
Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions:
Ary Daniela nody tany an-tranony ka nanambara ilay teny tamin'i Hanania sy Misaela ary Azaria namany,
That they would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning this secret; that Daniel and his fellows should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
mba hangatahan'ireo famindram-po amin'Andriamanitry ny lanitra ny amin'izany zava-miafina izany, mba tsy haringana Daniela sy ny namany mbamin'ny olon-kendrin'i Babylona rehetra.
Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
Dia naseho an'i Daniela tamin'ny fahitana amin'ny alina izany zava-miafina izany, ka dia nisaotra an'Andriamanitry ny lanitra Daniela.
Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
Eny, niteny izy ka nanao hoe: Isaorana anie ny anaran'Andriamanitra mandrakizay mandrakizay, fa Azy ny fahendrena sy ny hery.
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 know understanding:
Ary Izy no mandahatra ny andro sy ny fotoana; Izy no manaisotra mpanjaka sy manangana mpanjaka; Izy no manome fahendrena ho an'ny hendry sy fahalalana ho an'izay mazava saina.
He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
Izy no mampiseho ny zavatra lalina sy miafina; Izy no mahalala izay ao amin'ny maizina, ary ny mazava mitoetra ao aminy.
I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast now made known unto us the king's matter.
Hianao, ry Andriamanitry ny razako ô, no deraiko sy isaorako, satria nomenao fahendrena sy hery aho, ary ankehitriny efa nampahafantarinao ahy izay nangatahinay taminao; fa nampahafantarinao anay ilay nofin'3 ny mpanjaka.
Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had ordained 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 shew unto the king the interpretation.
Ary noho izany Daniela dia niditra nankao amin'i Arioka, izay notendren'ny mpanjaka handringana ny olon-kendrin'i Babylona, eny, nandeha izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Aza mandringana ny olon-kendrin'i Babylona; fa ento ho eo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka aho, dia hambarako aminy ny hevitry ny nofiny.
Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the captives of Judah, that will make known unto the king the interpretation.
Dia nentin'i Arioka faingana ho eo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka Daniela, ka hoy izy taminy: Nahita lehilahy isan'ny babo avy any Joda aho, izay hilaza amin'ny mpanjaka ny hevitry ny nofy.
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?
Ny mpanjaka namaly ka nilaza tamin'i Daniela, izay atao hoe koa Beltesazara, hoe: Moa mahay manambara amiko ny nofy izay hitako mbamin'ny heviny va ianao?
Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, shew unto the king;
Dia namaly teo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka Daniela nanao hoe: Ilay zava-miafina nanontanian'ny mpanjaka dia tsy hain'ny olon-kendry, na ny mpisikidy, na ny ombiasy, na ny mpanandro, nolazaina tamin'ny mpanjaka;
But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh 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;
kanefa misy Andriamanitra any an-danitra, Izay mampiseho zava-miafina ka mampahafantatra an'i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka izay ho tonga any am-parany. Ny nofinao sy ny fahitan'ny lohanao teo amin'ny farafaranao dia izao:
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 maketh known to thee what shall come to pass.
Ny aminao, ry mpanjaka ô, raha nandry ianao, dia tonga ny eritreritrao ny amin'izay ho avy rahatrizay; ary Izay mampiseho zava-miafina dia mampahafantatra anao izay ho avy.
But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living, but for their sakes that shall make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest know the thoughts of thy heart.
Ary izaho aza, dia tsy noho ny fahendrena ananako mihoatra noho ny olombelona rehetra tsy akory no nampisehoana tamiko ny zava-miafina, fa ny mba hampahafantarana ny mpanjaka ilay hevitra, ka hahafantaranao ny eritreritry ny fonao.
Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.
Hianao, ry mpanjaka ô, nahita fa, indro, nisy sariolona lehibe anankiray. Izany sary izany dia lehibe sady namirapiratra tsara, nijoro teo anatrehanao izy, ary ny tarehiny dia nahatahotra.
This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass,
Ny lohan'izany sary izany dia volamena tsara, ny tratrany sy ny sandriny dia volafotsy, ny kibony sy ny feny dia varahina,
His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.
ny ranjony dia vy, ary ny tongony dia vy sy tanimanga.
Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
Nijery ianao ambara-pahanisy vato voaendaka, nefa tsy nendahan-tanana, ary namely ilay sary teo amin'ny tongony vy sy tanimanga iny ka nahatorotoro azy.
Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
Dia niara-torotoro ny vy sy ny tanimanga sy ny varahina sy ny volafotsy ary ny volamena ka tonga toy ny akofa eo am-pamoloana fahavaratra; ary nopaohin'ny rivotra izy, ka tsy nisy hitoerany, ary ilay vato namely ny sary dia tonga tendrombohitra lehibe nahafeno ny tany rehetra.
This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
Izany no nofy, ary holazainay eto anatrehan'ny mpanjaka koa ny heviny.
Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
Hianao, ry mpanjaka ô, izay mpanjakan'ny mpanjaka sady nomen'Andriamanitry ny lanitra fanjakana sy hery sy fahaleovana ary voninahitra,
And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold.
ka ny zanak'olombelona sy ny bibi-dia ary ny voro-manidina, na aiza na aiza itoerany, dia nomeny ho eo an-tananao, ary nataony ho mpanjakan'izy rehetra ianao, dia ianao izany loha volamena izany.
And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
Ary manarakaraka anao dia hisy fanjakana hafa hitsangana ambany noho ny anao, ary hisy fanjakana fahatelo koa izay varahina sady hanam-pahefana amin'ny tany rehetra.
And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
Ary ny fanjakana fahefatra dia ho mafy toy ny vy; fa toy ny vy manorotoro sy mahamongomongo ny zavatra rehetra, ary toy ny famakivakin'ny vy ireo rehetra ireo, dia toy izany no amakivakiany sy anorotoroany azy.
And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
Ary satria hitanao ny tongotra sy ny rantsan-tongotra, fa ny tapany tanimangan'ny mpanefy tanimanga, ary ny tapany vy dia ho fanjakana mizarazara izy; nefa hisy herim-by ao aminy, satria nahita vy miharo tanimanga mbola fotaka ianao.
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.
Ary toy ny rantsan-tongotra, ny tapany vy, ny tapany tanimanga, dia ho toy izany ny fanjakana, ny tapany ho mafy, ary ny tapany ho malemy.
And whereas thou sawest 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 is not mixed with clay.
Ary toy ny nahitanao ny vy miharo tanimanga mbola fotaka, dia ho toy izany no hiharoany amin'ny taranak'olombelona; nefa tsy hitambatra izy, dia toy ny tsi-fetezan'ny vy miharo amin'ny tanimanga.
And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
Ary amin'ny andron'ireo mpanjaka ireo Andriamanitry ny lanitra dia hanorina fanjakana izay tsy ho rava mandrakizay; ary izany fanjakana izany tsy havela ho an'olon- kafa, fa ireo fanjakana rehetra ireo dia hotorotoroiny sy holevoniny, fa izy kosa hitoetra mandrakizay.
Forasmuch as thou sawest that the 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.
Fa toy ilay nahitanao ny vato nendahana tamin'ny tendrombohitra, nefa tsy nendahan-tanana, sy ny nanorotoroany ny vy sy ny varahina sy ny tanimanga sy ny volafotsy ary ny volamena, dia ampahafantarin'Andriamanitra lehibe ny mpanjaka ny amin'ny zavatra ho avy rahatrizay: marina ny nofy, ary tsy maintsy ho tò ny heviny.
Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell upon his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odours unto him.
Dia niankohoka Nebokadnezara mpanjaka ka nivavaka tamin'i Daniela ary nampanatitra fanatitra sy hanitra ankasitrahana ho azy.
The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth it is, that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, seeing thou couldest reveal this secret.
Ny mpanjaka namaly an'i Daniela ka nanao hoe: Marina tokoa fa Andriamanitrareo dia Andriamanitry ny andriamanitra sy Tompon'ny mpanjaka ary Mampiseho zava-miafina, ka dia nahay nampiseho izany zava-miafina izany ianao.
Then the king made Daniel a great man, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon.
Ary tamin'izany ny mpanjaka dia nanandratra an'i Daniela ho lehibe, ka nanome azy zavatra maro sady lehibe ary nanendry azy ho mpanapaka any Babylona sy ny fehiny rehetra, sy ho lehiben'ny mpanapaka ny olon-kendrin'i Babylona rehetra.
Then Daniel requested of the king, and he set Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel sat in the gate of the king.
Ary Daniela nangataka tamin'ny mpanjaka, ary izy nanendry an'i Sadraka sy Mesaka ary Abednego ho tonian'ny raharahan'i Babylona sy ny fehiny; ary Daniela dia teo am-bavahadin'ny mpanjaka.
