1Nebukhadnezzar manghai loh namtu pilnam boeih neh olcom olcae neh, diklai pum kah khosa, khosa te, “Nangmih kah ngaimongnah he pungtai saeh.
1Nebuchadnezzar the king, to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied to you.
2Khohni kah Khohni Pathen loh kai hamla miknoek neh khobae rhambae te a tueng sak tih kai taengah thui hamla a huem.
2It has seemed good to me to show the signs and wonders that the Most High God has worked toward me.
3A miknoek te metluk lam lae boeilen tih amah khobae rhambae he metluk lam lae a tlungluen. A ram he kumhal kah ram tih a khohung khaw thawnpuei lamloh cadilcahma taengah om ni.
3How great are his signs! How mighty are his wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. His dominion is from generation to generation.
4Kai Nebukhadnezzar tah ka im kah thayoei nen khaw, ka bawkim kah hnothen nen khaw ka om.
4I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace.
5Mang ka man vaengah kai n'hihham tih ka thingkong dongah poeknah neh ka lu dongkah mangthui loh kai n'cahawh.
5I saw a dream which made me afraid; and the thoughts on my bed and the visions of my head troubled me.
6Ka mang kah thuingaihnah te thui saeh tila Babylon hlang cueih boeih te kamah taengah khuen hamla kai lamloh saithainah a paek coeng.
6Therefore I made a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known to me the interpretation of the dream.
7Hmayuep rhoek, rhaitonghma rhoek, Khalden rhoek neh aisi aka suep khaw ha pai, ha pai vaengah mang he amih taengah ka thui dae a thuingaihnah te kai taengah a ming uh moenih.
7Then the magicians, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers came in; and I told them the dream, but they didn’t make known to me its interpretation.
8Tedae a hnukkhueng la Daniel he kai taengla ha pai. Anih te ka pathen ming bangla Belteshazzar a ming nah. Anih tah a khuiah khaw Pathen Mueihla cim a om dongah a taengah mang ka thui pah.
8But at last, Daniel came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods. I told the dream before him, saying,
9Belteshazzar tah hmayuep boei pai ni. Na khui ah Pathen kah mueihla cim om tih oldung boeih khaw nang hamla kuel pawh tila ka ming. Ka mang ah mangthui ka hmuh tih a thuingaihnah khaw a thui.
9“Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in you and no secret troubles you, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and its interpretation.
10Ka thingkong dongah ka lu kah mangthui ka hmuh. Te vaengah diklai laklung kah thing tah a sang khaw muep sang he.
10These were the visions of my head on my bed: I saw, and behold, a tree in the middle of the earth; and its height was great.
11Thing te rhoeng tih a hlul dongah a sang loh vaan duela a pha. Te dongah a mueimae he diklai pum kah khobawt duela tueng.
11The tree grew and was strong. Its height reached to the sky and its sight to the end of all the earth.
12A hnah te then tih a thaih khaw yet. Te dongah a soah a cungkuem ham buh om tih a hmui ah kohong rhamsa loh hlipying uh. A bu dongah vaan kah vaa loh kho a sak tih te lamloh pumsa boeih a cah.
12Its leaves were beautiful, and it had much fruit, and in it was food for all. The animals of the field had shade under it, and the birds of the sky lived in its branches, and all flesh was fed from it.
13Ka thingkong dongah ka lu dongkah mangthui ka hmuh tih ka om vaengah vaan lamkah thinghla cim tah ha rhum.
13“I saw in the visions of my head on my bed, and behold, a holy watcher came down from the sky.
14Thadueng neh pang tih, “Thing te vung lamtah, a bu te saih pah, a hnah te hae pah lamtah a thaih haeh pah. A hmui lamkah rhamsa neh a bu dongkah vaa khaw nong saeh,”.
14He cried aloud and said this: ‘Cut down the tree, and cut off its branches! Shake off its leaves and scatter its fruit! Let the animals get away from under it and the birds from its branches.
15Tedae a yung a ngo tah diklai ah ngol saeh lamtah thi neh rhohum kah pinnah neh kohong baeldaih khui ah om saeh. Te dongah vaan kah buem loh saep saeh lamtah a hamsum rhamsa neh diklai baelhing lakli ah om saeh.
15Nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of the sky. Let his portion be with the animals in the grass of the earth.
16Tekah hlang tah a thinko te hlang lamloh poehlip saeh lamtah anih te rhamsa thinko pae saeh. Te vaengah anih ham kum rhih thok pah saeh, a ti.
16Let his heart be changed from man’s, and let an animal’s heart be given to him. Then let seven times pass over him.
17He kong dongkah thinghla kah saithainah ol neh a cim olpaek oltloek rhangneh a sangkoek lakah a sangkoek loh hlang kah ram neh hlang khaw a hung te mulhing rhoek loh ming uh saeh. Te dongah te te a ngaih sarhui taengah a paek tih mathoe hlang rhoek te a so, a so ah a pai sak.
17“‘The sentence is by the decree of the watchers and the demand by the word of the holy ones, to the intent that the living may know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever he will, and sets up over it the lowest of men.’
18Kai manghai Nebukhadnezzar loh mang loh ka man he Belteshazzar nang, namah loh a thuingaihnah thui laeh. Te kong dongah ka ram kah hlang cueih boeih loh kai taengah a thuingaihnah thuicaih ham a noeng uh moenih. Nang, namah tah na khuikah Pathen mueihla cim rhangneh na noeng coeng,” a ti.
18“This dream I, King Nebuchadnezzar, have seen; and you, Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation, because all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known to me the interpretation; but you are able, for the spirit of the holy gods is in you.”
19Te dongah Belteshazzar aka ming nah Daniel tah khonoek pakhat khuiah hit sut. A poeknah loh amah a cahawh. Te dongah manghai loh a voek tih, “Belteshazzar, mang neh a thuingaihnah nang te let boeh,” a ti nah. Belteshazzar loh a doo tih, “Ka boeipa aw, ka boeipa na saeh, mang te na lunguet, na lunguet ham tih a thuingaihnah tah na rhal, na rhal ham ni.
19Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was stricken mute for a while, and his thoughts troubled him. The king answered, “Belteshazzar, don’t let the dream or the interpretation trouble you.” Belteshazzar answered, “My lord, may the dream be for those who hate you, and its interpretation to your adversaries.
20Na hmuh bangla thing te rhoeng tih hlul. Te dongah a sang vaan duela a pha tih a mueimae te diklai pum ah tueng.
20The tree that you saw, which grew and was strong, whose height reached to the sky and its sight to all the earth;
21A hnah then tih a thaih yet. A soah a cungkuem ham buh om tih a hmui ah kohong rhamsa loh kho a sak. A bu dongah vaan kah vaa loh kho a sak.
21whose leaves were beautiful and its fruit plentiful, and in it was food for all; under which the animals of the field lived, and on whose branches the birds of the sky had their habitation—
22Manghai nang namah tah na rhoeng tih na hlul dongah na lennah khaw vaan a pha duela rhoeng na. Na khohung loh diklai khobawt duela a pha.
22it is you, O king, that have grown and become strong; for your greatness has grown, and reaches to the sky, and your dominion to the end of the earth.
23Manghai aw, a tueng bangla, thinghla cim tah vaan lamloh rhum tih, “Thing te vung uh lamtah palet uh. A yung a ngo tah diklai ah hlun uh lamtah thi neh rhohum kah pinnah neh kohong baeldaih khuiah om saeh. Te vaengah vaan kah buem neh saep saeh lamtah anih te kum rhih a thok duela amah hamsum kohong rhamsa taengah om saeh.
23“Whereas the king saw a holy watcher coming down from the sky and saying, ‘Cut down the tree, and destroy it; nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field, and let it be wet with the dew of the sky. Let his portion be with the animals of the field, until seven times pass over him.’
24Manghai aw a thuingaihnah he tah a sangkoek a sangkoek kah saithainah ni. He he ka boeipa neh ka boeipa manghai taengah pai coeng.
24“This is the interpretation, O king, and it is the decree of the Most High, which has come on my lord the king:
25Nang te hlang taeng lamloh m'vai uh vetih kohong rhamsa taengah ni na khosaknah a om eh. Baelhing te vaito bangla na caak vetih vaan kah buem neh nang te n'saep ni. A sangkoek kah a sangkoek loh hlang kah ram soah a hung tih te te a ngaih sarhui taengah a paek tila na ming hil nang hamla kum rhih thok ni.
25You will be driven from men and your dwelling shall be with the animals of the field. You will be made to eat grass as oxen, and will be wet with the dew of the sky, and seven times shall pass over you, until you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever he will.
26Thing kah a yung a ngo hlun ham a thui bangla vaan aka hung te na ming van lamloh na ram te namah taengla cak ni.
26Whereas it was commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree, your kingdom will be restored to you after you learn that Heaven rules.
27Te dongah manghai aw, kai poeknah he namah taengah na doe mai mako. Na tholhnah te duengnah neh phaeh lamtah hlanghnaem pataek na rhen nen te na halangnah hnawt laeh. Na ommongnah te a congnah a om khaming,” a ti nah.
27Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to you, and break off your sins by righteousness, and your iniquities by showing mercy to the poor. Perhaps there may be a lengthening of your tranquility.”
28Te boeih te Nebukhadnezzar manghai taengah a pai pah.
28All this came on the King Nebuchadnezzar.
29Hla hlai nit a bawtnah dongah tah Babylon ram kah bawkim ah om tih pongpa.
29At the end of twelve months he was walking in the royal palace of Babylon.
30Te vaengah manghai te cal tih, “Babylon he a boeilen moenih a? He te kai loh ka thadueng sarhi neh kamah kah hinyahnah, thangpomnah ham ram kah im la ka sak,” a ti.
30The king spoke and said, “Is not this great Babylon, which I have built for the royal dwelling place by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?”
31Manghai ka dongah ol a cal li vaengah vaan lamkah ol cet tih, “Manghai Nebukhadnezzar nang hamla a thui tih ram he nang lamloh nong coeng.
31While the word was in the king’s mouth, a voice came from the sky, saying, “O King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: ‘The kingdom has departed from you.
32Nang te hlang taeng lamloh m'vai coeng tih na khosaknah he kohong rhamsa nen ni a om. Nang te vaito bangla rham n'cah vetih a sangkoek kah a sangkoek loh hlang kah ram soah a hung tih te te a ngaih taengah a paek tila na ming hil nang hamla kum rhih thok ni,” a ti nah.
32You shall be driven from men, and your dwelling shall be with the animals of the field. You shall be made to eat grass like oxen. Seven times shall pass over you, until you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever he will.’”
33Amah ol a bangli vaengah Nebukhadnezzar soah a pha tih hlang taeng lamloh a vai uh. Te vaengah vaito bangla rham a caak tih a sam te atha bangla, a kuttin te vaa bangla a sai hil a pum te vaan kah buem loh a saep.
33This was fulfilled the same hour on Nebuchadnezzar. He was driven from men and ate grass like oxen; and his body was wet with the dew of the sky until his hair had grown like eagles’ feathers, and his nails like birds’ claws.
34A tue bawtnah dongah tah, kai Nebukhadnezzar loh ka mik he vaan la ka huel hatah ka mingnah he ka taengla ha mael. Te dongah a sangkoek Khohni te ka koeh tih kumhal kah mulhing te ka oep tih ka hinyah nah. A khohung te dungyan kah khohung tih a ram kah thawnpuei lamloh cadilcahma duela cak.
34At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me; and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honored him who lives forever, for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom from generation to generation.
35Diklai khosa, khosa boeih tah aka om pawt bangla a ngai tih diklai khosa, khosa rhoek te vaan thadueng neh a ngaih bangla a saii. A kut te aka doek pa tih a taengah “Balae na saii?” aka ti nah te a om moenih.
35All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he does according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and no one can stop his hand, or ask him, “What are you doing?”
36Ka mingnah loh ka taengah a mael tue vaengah, ka ram kah thangpomnah, kai hinyahnah neh ka aa ka taengla ha mael. Kai he ka olrhoep neh ka boei ka na rhoek loh n'toem uh. Ka ram he pai tih lennah kai taengah muep a thap.
36At the same time my understanding returned to me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and brightness returned to me. My counselors and my lords sought me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent greatness was added to me.
37Kai Nebukhadnezzar tah n'oep tih m'pacuet coeng. Te dongah vaan kah manghai tah hinyah pai saeh. A bibi boeih he oltak tih a longpuei khaw tiktam. Te dongah koevoeinah neh aka pongpa te kunyun sak ham a noeng.
37Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven; for all his works are truth, and his ways justice; and those who walk in pride he is able to abase.
