Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1IN THE third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.
1I KA makahiki ekolu o ke au ia Iehoiakima ke alii o Iuda, hele mai la o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona i Ierusalema, a hoopuni aku la ia wahi.
2And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the house of God; and he carried them into the land of Shinar to the house of his god, and the vessels he brought into the treasure-house of his god.
2A haawi aku la ke Akua iloko o kona lima ia Iehoiakima ke alii o Iuda, a me kekahi mau ipu o ka hale o ke Akua, a lawe aku la oia ia mau mea i ka aina i Sinara i ka hale o kona akua; a hookomo 'o ia i na ipu iloko o ka hale waihonawaiwai o kona akua iho.
3And the king spoke unto Ashpenaz his chief officer, that he should bring in certain of the children of Israel, and of the seed royal, and of the nobles,
3Olelo aku la ke alii ia Asepenaza ka luna o ka poe i poaia, e alakai mai i kekahi o ka poe mamo a Iseraela, na keiki alii, a me na kaukaualii;
4youths in whom was no blemish, but fair to look on, and skilful in all wisdom, and skilful in knowledge, and discerning in thought, and such as had ability to stand in the king's palace; and that he should teach them the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans.
4Na keiki kina ole, a maikai ke nana aku, a akamai ma na mea a pau i aoia mai, a he poe ike i na mea ikeia a naauao hoi ma na mea e akamai ai, ka poe i makaukau, i ku aku lakou iloko o ka hale o ke alii, i aoia mai ai lakou ma ka palapala, a me ka olelo a ka poe Kaledea.
5And the king appointed for them a daily portion of the king's food, and of the wine which he drank, and that they should be nourished three years; that at the end thereof they might stand before the king.
5A kauoha ae la ke alii i ai na lakou no kela la keia la, ma ka ai a ke alii, a me ka waina ana i inu ai; i kupaluia lakou i na makahiki ekolu, a mahope e ku aku lakou imua o ke alii.
6Now among these were, of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.
6Aia mawaena o lakou kekahi poe o na keiki a Iuda, o Daniela, o Hanania, o Misaela, a me Azaria.
7And the chief of the officers gave names unto them: unto Daniel he gave the name of Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abed-nego.
7Kapa ae la ka luna o ka poe i poaia i mau inoa hou no lakou; kapa ae la oia i ko Daniela o Beletesaza; i ko Hanania o Saderaka; i ko Misaela o Mesaka; a me ko Azaria o Abedenego.
8But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the king's food, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the chief of the officers that he might not defile himself.
8Ua paa ko Daniela manao aole e hoohaumia ia ia iho ma ka ai a ke alii, a me ka waina ana i inu ai: a noi aku la oia i ka luna o ka poe i poaia i hoohaumia ole oia ia ia iho malaila.
9And God granted Daniel mercy and compassion in the sight of the chief of the officers.
9Ua haawi mai ke Akua ia Daniela i ka lokomaikai a me ke aloha nui ia mai imua o ka luna o ka poe i poaia.
10And the chief of the officers said unto Daniel: 'I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed your food and your drink; for why should he see your faces sad in comparison with the youths that are of your own age? so would ye endanger my head with the king.'
10Olelo mai la ka luna o ka poe i poaia ia Daniela, Ua makau au i kuu haku i ke alii, ka mea i kauoha mae i ka oukou ai, a me ka oukou mea e inu ai. Pehea la uanei e ike mai ai ke alii i ko oukou mau maka ua inoino mamua aku o na maka o na kamalii me oukou pu? Malaila, e hoohewa ai oukou i kuu poo i ke alii.
11Then said Daniel to the steward, whom the chief of the officers had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:
11I aku la o Daniela i ke kuene, ka mea a ka luna o ka poe i poaia i hoonoho ai maluna o Daniela, a me Hanania, a me Misaela, a me Azaria.
12'Try thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us pulse to eat, and water to drink.
12E hoao mai i kau mau kauwa i na la he umi, a e haawi mai oe na makou i na laauikiai e ai, a me ka wai e inu.
13Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the countenance of the youths that eat of the king's food; and as thou seest, deal with thy servants.'
13Alaila e ikeia'i imua ou ko makou mau maka, a me na maka o na kamalii ka poe i ai i ka ai a ke alii; a e like me kou ike ana, pela no e hana mai ai oe i kau mau kauwa nei.
14So he hearkened unto them in this matter, and tried them ten days.
14A ao mai la no oia i ka lakou ma keia mea, a hoao iho la ia lakou i na la he umi.
15And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer, and they were fatter in flesh, than all the youths that did eat of the king's food.
15A i ka hope o ua mau la la he umi, ua ikeia ko lakou mau maka, ua maikai, ua momona ka io mamua o ko na kamalii a pau i ai i ka ai a ke alii.
16So the steward took away their food, and the wine that they should drink, and gave them pulse.
16Alaila, lawe aku la ke kuene i ua ai la a lakou, a me ka waina i haawiia mai i mea inu, a haawi ia lakou i ka laauikiai wale no.
17Now as for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
17A o keia mau keiki eha, haawi mai la ke Akua ia lakou i ka ike, a me ke akamai ma na mea a pau i palapalaia, a me ka naauao; a o Daniela, ua ike oia i ka hoakaka i na akaku a pau a me na moe uhane.
18And at the end of the days which the king had appointed for bringing them in, the chief of the officers brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.
18A i ka pau ana o na la a ke alii i olelo ai i alakaiia mai lakou, alaila, alakai aku la ka luna o ka poe i poaia ia lakou imua o Nebukaneza.
19And the king spoke with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah; therefore stood they before the king.
19A kamailio pu ke alii me lakou; aole nae i loaa iwaena o lakou a pau kekahi mea e like me Daniela, a me Hanania, a me Misaela, a me Azaria. A ku aku la lakou imua o ke alii.
20And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters that were in all his realm.
20Ma na mea naauao a pau loa, a me na mea e akamai ai a ko alii i imi ai ia lakou, ua maopopo ia, ua oi pa umi aku ko lakou naauao mamua o na magoi a pau, a me na kilo ma kona aupuni a pau.
21And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.
21Ola ae la o Daniela a hiki i ka makahiki mua o ko Kuro alii ana.
