但以理书 6
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1大流士 随心所愿，立一百二十个总督，治理通国。
1(6-2) It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, who should be throughout the whole kingdom;
2又在他们以上立总长三人（ 但以理 在其中），使总督在他们三人面前回复事务，免得王受亏损。
2(6-3) and over them three presidents, of whom Daniel was one; that these satraps might give account unto them, and that the king should have no damage.
3因这 但以理 有美好的灵性，所以显然超乎其余的总长和总督，王又想立他治理通国。
3(6-4) Then this Daniel distinguished himself above the presidents and the satraps, because a surpassing spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
4那时，总长和总督寻找 但以理 误国的把柄，为要参他；只是找不着他的错误过失，因他忠心办事，毫无错误过失。
4(6-5) Then the presidents and the satraps sought to find occasion against Daniel as touching the kingdom; but they could find no occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.
5那些人便说：「我们要找参这 但以理 的把柄，除非在他 神的律法中就寻不着。」
5(6-6) Then said these men: 'We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him in the matter of the law of his God.'
6于是，总长和总督纷纷聚集来见王，说：「愿 大流士 王万岁！
6(6-7) Then these presidents and satraps came tumultuously to the king, and said thus unto him: 'King Darius, live for ever!
7国中的总长、钦差、总督、谋士，和巡抚彼此商议，要立一条坚定的禁令，三十日内，不拘何人，若在王以外，或向神或向人求什么，就必扔在狮子坑中。
7(6-8) All the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects and the satraps, the ministers and the governors, have consulted together that the king should establish a statute, and make a strong interdict, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
8王啊，现在求你立这禁令，加盖玉玺，使禁令决不更改；照 米底亚 和 波斯 人的例是不可更改的。」
8(6-9) Now, O king, establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.'
9于是 大流士 王立这禁令，加盖玉玺。
9(6-10) Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the interdict.
10但以理 知道这 禁令 盖了玉玺，就到自己家里（他楼上的窗户开向 耶路撒冷 ），一日三次，双膝跪在他 神面前，祷告感谢，与素常一样。
10(6-11) And when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house — now his windows were open in his upper chamber toward Jerusalem — and he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.
11那些人就纷纷聚集，见 但以理 在他 神面前祈祷恳求。
11(6-12) Then these men came tumultuously, and found Daniel making petition and supplication before his God.
12他们便进到王前，提王的禁令，说：「王啊，三十日内不拘何人，若在王以外，或向神或向人求什么，必被扔在狮子坑中。王不是在这禁令上盖了玉玺吗？」王回答说：「实有这事，照 米底亚 和 波斯 人的例是不可更改的。」
12(6-13) Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king's interdict: 'Hast thou not signed an interdict, that every man that shall make petition unto any god or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?' The king answered and said: 'The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.'
13他们对王说：「王啊，那被掳之 犹大 人中的 但以理 不理你，也不遵你盖了玉玺的禁令，他竟一日三次祈祷。」
13(6-14) Then answered they and said before the king: 'That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the interdict that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day.'
14王听见这话，就甚愁烦，一心要救 但以理 ，筹划解救他，直到日落的时候。
14(6-15) Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore displeased, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him; and he laboured till the going down of the sun to deliver him.
15那些人就纷纷聚集来见王，说：「王啊，当知道 米底亚 人和 波斯 人有例，凡王所立的禁令和律例都不可更改。」
15(6-16) Then these men came tumultuously unto the king, and said unto the king: 'Know, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians, that no interdict nor statute which the king establisheth may be changed.'
16王下令，人就把 但以理 带来，扔在狮子坑中。王对 但以理 说：「你所常事奉的 神，他必救你。」
16(6-17) Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spoke and said unto Daniel: 'Thy God whom thou servest continually, He will deliver thee.'
17有人搬石头放在坑口，王用自己的玺和大臣的印，封闭那坑，使惩办 但以理 的事毫无更改。
17(6-18) And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel.
18王回宫，终夜禁食，无人拿乐器到他面前，并且睡不着觉。
18(6-19) Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were diversions brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.
19次日黎明，王就起来，急忙往狮子坑那里去。
19(6-20) Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto the den of lions.
20临近坑边，哀声呼叫 但以理 ，对 但以理 说：「永生 神的仆人 但以理 啊，你所常事奉的 神能救你脱离狮子吗？」
20(6-21) And when he came near unto the den to Daniel, he cried with a pained voice; the king spoke and said to Daniel: 'O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions?'
21但以理 对王说：「愿王万岁！
21(6-22) Then said Daniel unto the king: 'O king, live for ever!
22我的 神差遣使者，封住狮子的口，叫狮子不伤我；因我在 神面前无辜，我在王面前也没有行过亏损的事。」
22(6-23) My God hath sent His angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before Him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.'
23王就甚喜乐，吩咐人将 但以理 从坑里系上来。于是 但以理 从坑里被系上来，身上毫无伤损，因为信靠他的 神。
23(6-24) Then was the king exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he had trusted in his God.
24王下令，人就把那些控告 但以理 的人，连他们的妻子儿女都带来，扔在狮子坑中。他们还没有到坑底，狮子就抓住他们，咬碎他们的骨头。
24(6-25) And the king commanded, and they brought those men that had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and they had not come to the bottom of the den, when the lions had the mastery of them, and broke all their bones in pieces.
25那时， 大流士 王传旨，晓谕住在全地各方、各国、各族的人说：「愿你们大享平安！
25(6-26) Then king Darius wrote unto all the peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: 'Peace be multiplied unto you.
26现在我降旨晓谕我所统辖的全国人民，要在 但以理 的 神面前，战兢恐惧。 因为他是永远长存的活 神， 他的国永不败坏； 他的权柄永存无极！
26(6-27) I make a decree, that in all the dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for He is the living God, and stedfast for ever, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and His dominion shall be even unto the end;
27他护庇人，搭救人， 在天上地下施行神迹奇事， 救了 但以理 脱离狮子的口。」
27(6-28) He delivereth and rescueth, and He worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth; who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.'
28如此，这 但以理 ，当 大流士 王 在位的时候和 波斯 王 塞鲁士 在位的时候，大享亨通。
28(6-29) So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
