但以理书 2
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1尼布甲尼撒 在位第二年，他做了梦，心里烦乱，不能睡觉。
1In the second year of the reign of Nabuchodonosor, Nabuchodonosor had a dream, and his spirit was terrified, and his dream went out of his mind.
2王吩咐人将术士、用法术的、行邪术的，和 迦勒底 人召来，要他们将王的梦告诉王，他们就来站在王前。
2Then the king commanded to call together the diviners and the wise men, and the magicians, and the Chaldeans: to declare to the king his dreams: so they came and stood before the king.
3王对他们说：「我做了一梦，心里烦乱，要知道这是什么梦。」
3And the king said to them: I saw a dream: and being troubled in mind I know not what I saw.
4迦勒底 人用 亚兰 的言语对王说：「愿王万岁！请将那梦告诉仆人，仆人就可以讲解。」
4And the Chaldeans answered the king in Syriac: O king, live for ever: tell to thy servants thy dream, and we will declare the interpretation thereof.
5王回答 迦勒底 人说：「梦我已经忘了，你们若不将梦和梦的讲解告诉我，就必被凌迟，你们的房屋必成为粪堆；
5And the king answering said to the Chaldeans: The thing is gone out of my mind: unless you tell me the dream, and the meaning thereof, you shall be put to death, and your houses shall be confiscated.
6你们若将梦和梦的讲解告诉我，就必从我这里得赠品和赏赐，并大尊荣。现在你们要将梦和梦的讲解告诉我。」
6But if you tell the dream, and the meaning of it, you shall receive of me rewards, and gifts, and great honour: therefore tell me the dream, and the interpretation thereof.
7他们第二次对王说：「请王将梦告诉仆人，仆人就可以讲解。」
7They answered again and said: Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will declare the interpretation of it.
8王回答说：「我准知道你们是故意迟延，因为你们知道那梦我已经忘了。
8The king answered, and said: I know for certain that you seek to gain time, since you know that the thing is gone from me.
9你们若不将梦告诉我，只有一法待你们；因为你们预备了谎言乱语向我说，要等候时势改变。现在你们要将梦告诉我，因我知道你们能将梦的讲解告诉我。」
9If therefore you tell me not the dream, there is one sentence concerning you, that you have also framed a lying interpretation, and full of deceit, to speak before me till the time pass away. Tell me therefore the dream, that I may know that you also give a true interpretation thereof.
10迦勒底 人在王面前回答说：「世上没有人能将王所问的事说出来；因为没有君王、大臣、掌权的向术士，或用法术的，或 迦勒底 人问过这样的事。
10Then the Chaldeains answered before the king, and said: There is no man upon earth, that can accomplish thy word, O king, neither doth any king, though great and mighty, ask such a thing of any diviner, or wise man, or Chaldean.
11王所问的事甚难。除了不与世人同居的神明，没有人在王面前能说出来。」
11For the thing that thou askest, O king, is difficult; nor can any one be found that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose conversation is not with men.
12因此，王气忿忿地大发烈怒，吩咐灭绝 巴比伦 所有的哲士。
12Upon hearing this, the king in fury, and in great wrath, commanded that all the wise men of Babylon should be put to death.
13于是命令发出，哲士将要见杀，人就寻找 但以理 和他的同伴，要杀他们。
13And the decree being gone forth, the wise men were slain: and Daniel and his companions were sought for, to be put to death.
14王的护卫长 亚略 出来，要杀 巴比伦 的哲士， 但以理 就用婉言回答他，
14Then Daniel inquired concerning the law and the sentence, of Arioch the general of the king’s army, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon.
15向王的护卫长 亚略 说：「王的命令为何这样紧急呢？」 亚略 就将情节告诉 但以理 。
15And he asked him that had received the orders of the king, why so cruel a sentence was gone forth from the face of the king. And when Arioch had told the matter to Daniel,
16但以理 遂进去求王宽限，就可以将 梦的 讲解告诉王。
16Daniel went in and desired of the king, that he would give him time to resolve the question and declare it to the king.
17但以理 回到他的居所，将这事告诉他的同伴 哈拿尼雅 、 米沙利 、 亚撒利雅 ，
17And he went into his house, and told the matter to Ananias, and Misael, and Azarias his companions:
18要他们祈求天上的 神施怜悯，将这奥秘的事指明，免得 但以理 和他的同伴与 巴比伦 其余的哲士一同灭亡。
18To the end that they should ask mercy at the face of the God of heaven concerning this secret, and that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
19这奥秘的事就在夜间异象中给 但以理 显明， 但以理 便称颂天上的 神。
19Then was the mystery revealed to Daniel by a vision in the night: and Daniel blessed the God of heaven,
20但以理 说：「 神的名是应当称颂的！从亘古直到永远，因为智慧能力都属乎他。
20And speaking he said: Blessed be the name of the Lord from eternity and for evermore: for wisdom and fortitude are his.
21他改变时候、日期，废王，立王，将智慧赐与智慧人，将知识赐与聪明人。
21And he changeth times and ages: taketh away kingdoms and establisheth them, giveth wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to them that have understanding.
22他显明深奥隐秘的事，知道暗中所有的，光明也与他同居。
22He revealeth deep and hidden things, and knoweth what is in darkness: and light is with him.
23我列祖的 神啊，我感谢你，赞美你；因你将智慧才能赐给我，允准我们所求的，把王的事给我们指明。」
23To thee, O God of our fathers, I give thanks, and I praise thee: because thou hast given me wisdom and strength: and now thou hast shewn me what we desired of thee, for thou hast made known to us, the king’s discourse.
24于是， 但以理 进去见 亚略 ，就是王所派灭绝 巴比伦 哲士的，对他说：「不要灭绝 巴比伦 的哲士，求你领我到王面前，我要将 梦的 讲解告诉王。」
24After this Daniel went in to Arioch, to whom the king had given orders to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and he spoke thus to him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will tell the solution to the king.
25亚略 就急忙将 但以理 领到王面前，对王说：「我在被掳的 犹大 人中遇见一人，他能将 梦的 讲解告诉王。」
25Then Arioch in haste brought in Daniel to the king, and said to him: I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Juda, that will resolve the question to the king.
26王问称为 伯提沙撒 的 但以理 说：「你能将我所做的梦和梦的讲解告诉我吗？」
26The king answered, and said to Daniel, whose name was Baltassar: Thinkest thou indeed that thou canst tell me the dream that I saw, and the interpretation thereof?
27但以理 在王面前回答说：「王所问的那奥秘事，哲士、用法术的、术士、观兆的都不能告诉王，
27And Daniel made answer before the king, and said: The secret that the king desireth to know, none of the wise men, or the philosophers, or the diviners, or the soothsayers can declare to the king.
28只有一位在天上的 神能显明奥秘的事。他已将日后必有的事指示 尼布甲尼撒 王。你的梦和你在床上脑中的异象是这样：
28But there is a God in heaven that revealeth mysteries, who hath shewn to thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, what is to come to pass in the latter times. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these:
29王啊，你在床上想到后来的事，那显明奥秘事的主把将来必有的事指示你。
29Thou, O king, didst begin to think in thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth mysteries shewed thee what shall come to pass.
30至于那奥秘的事显明给我，并非因我的智慧胜过一切活人，乃为使王知道 梦的 讲解和心里的思念。
30To me also this secret is revealed, not by any wisdom that I have more than all men alive: but that the interpretation might be made manifest to the king, and thou mightest know the thoughts of thy mind.
31「王啊，你梦见一个大像，这像甚高，极其光耀，站在你面前，形状甚是可怕。
31Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was as it were a great statue: this statue, which was great and high, tall of stature, stood before thee, and the look thereof was terrible.
32这像的头是精金的，胸膛和膀臂是银的，肚腹和腰是铜的，
32The head of this statue was of fine gold, but the breast and the arms of silver, and the belly and the thighs of brass:
33腿是铁的，脚是半铁半泥的。
33And the legs of iron, the feet part of iron and part of clay.
34你观看，见有一块非人手凿出来的石头打在这像半铁半泥的脚上，把脚砸碎；
34Thus thou sawest, till a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands: and it struck the statue upon the feet thereof that were of iron and of clay, and broke them in pieces.
35于是金、银、铜、铁、泥都一同砸得粉碎，成如夏天禾场上的糠秕，被风吹散，无处可寻。打碎这像的石头变成一座大山，充满天下。
35Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of a summer’s thrashingfloor, and they were carried away by the wind: and there was no place found for them: but the stone that struck the statue, became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
36「这就是那梦；我们在王面前要讲解那梦。
36This is the dream: we will also tell the interpretation thereof before thee, O king.
37王啊，你是诸王之王。天上的 神已将国度、权柄、能力、尊荣都赐给你。
37Thou art a king of kings: and the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, and strength, and power, and glory:
38凡世人所住之地的走兽，并天空的飞鸟，他都交付你手，使你掌管这一切。你就是那金头。
38And all places wherein the children of men, and the beasts of the field do dwell: he hath also given the birds of the air into thy hand, and hath put all things under thy power: thou therefore art the head of gold.
39在你以后必另兴一国，不及于你；又有第三国，就是铜的，必掌管天下。
39And after thee shall rise up another kingdom, inferior to thee, of silver: and another third kingdom of brass, which shall rule over all the world.
40第四国，必坚壮如铁，铁能打碎克制百物，又能压碎一切，那国也必打碎压制 列国 。
40And the fourth kingdom shall be as iron. As iron breaketh into pieces, and subdueth all things, so shall that break and destroy all these.
41你既见像的脚和脚指头，一半是窑匠的泥，一半是铁，那国将来也必分开。你既见铁与泥搀杂，那国也必有铁的力量。
41Arid whereas thou sawest the feet, and the toes, part of potter’s clay, and part of iron: the kingdom shall be divided, but yet it shall take its origin from the iron, according as thou sawest the iron mixed with the miry clay.
42那脚指头，既是半铁半泥，那国也必半强半弱。
42And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
43你既见铁与泥搀杂，那国民也必与各种人搀杂，却不能彼此相合，正如铁与泥不能相合一样。
43And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall be mingled indeed together with the seed of man, but they shall not stick fast one to another, as iron cannot be mixed with clay.
44当那列王在位的时候，天上的 神必另立一国，永不败坏，也不归别国的人，却要打碎灭绝那一切国，这国必存到永远。
44But in the days of those kingdoms the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, and his kingdom shall not be delivered up to another people, and it shall break in pieces, and shall consume all these kingdoms, and itself shall stand for ever.
45你既看见非人手凿出来的一块石头从山而出，打碎金、银、铜、铁、泥，那就是至大的 神把后来必有的事给王指明。这梦准是这样，这讲解也是确实的。」
45According as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and broke in pieces, the clay, and the iron, and the brass, and the silver, and the gold, the great God hath shewn the king what shall come to pass hereafter, and the dream is true, and the interpretation thereof is faithful.
46当时， 尼布甲尼撒 王俯伏在地，向 但以理 下拜，并且吩咐人给他奉上供物和香品。
46Then king Nabuchodonosor fell on his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer in sacrifice to him victims and incense.
47王对 但以理 说：「你既能显明这奥秘的事，你们的 神诚然是万神之神、万王之主，又是显明奥秘事的。」
47And the king spoke to Daniel, and said: Verily your God is the God of gods, and Lord of kings, and a revealer of hidden things: seeing thou couldst discover this secret.
48于是王高抬 但以理 ，赏赐他许多上等礼物，派他管理 巴比伦 全省，又立他为总理，掌管 巴比伦 的一切哲士。
48Then the king advanced Daniel to a high station, and gave him many and great gifts: and he made him governor over all the provinces of Babylon, and chief of the magistrates over all the wise men of Babylon.
49但以理 求王，王就派 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亚伯尼歌 管理 巴比伦 省的事务，只是 但以理 常在朝中侍立。
49And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago over the works of the province of Babylon: but Daniel himself was in the king’s palace.
