4 “Mwami Nebukadinezara, kubantu boonse, kumasi oonse alimwi akubantu bamyaambo yoonse ibakkede munyika yoonse: Luumuno lwanu aluvwule kapati!
2 Ndilikkomene kwaambilizya zitondezyo alimwi azintu zigambya eezyo nzyaandicitila Leza Mupatikampatila.
3 Eelo kaka zitondezyo zyakwe nzibotu kapati azyalo zintu zyakwe zigambya nzipati kapati! Bwami bwakwe mbwami butamani, abwalo bulelo bwakwe mbwakuzyalani azyalani.+
4 “Mebo, nde Nebukadinezara, ndakaliliibide muŋanda yangu alimwi zintu zyakali kundeendela kabotu muŋanda yangu yabwami.
5 Ndakabona zintu muciloto izyakandiyoosya. Nindakalede abulo bwangu, zikozyanyo alimwi azilengaano zyamumutwe wangu zyakandiyoosya.+
6 Aboobo ndakalailila kuti baalumi boonse basongo bamu Babuloni baboole kulindime, kuti bandaambile bupanduluzi bwaciloto eeci.+
7 “Aciindi eeco bapaizi basimasalamuzi, basondi, ba Kasidi* alimwi abasikupandulula bweende bwanyenyeezi+ bakaboola. Nindakabaambila mbocakabede ciloto, balo bakaalilwa kundaambila bupanduluzi bwancico.+
8 Mpoonya kumamanino Daniele, ooyo uujisi zina lyakuti Belitsazara+ kweelana azina lyaleza wangu+ alimwi ooyo uujisi muuya wabaleza basalala+ wakaboola kulindime, eelyo ndakamwaambila mbocakabede ciloto, ndakati:
9 “‘O Belitsazara silutwe wabapaizi basimasalamuzi,+ ndilizyi kabotu kuti yebo ujisi muuya wabaleza basalala+ alimwi akuti kunyina kaambo nokaba komwe kamaseseke ikakatazya kulinduwe.+ Aboobo kondaambila zilengaano nzyondakabona muciloto cangu alimwi abupanduluzi bwancico.
10 “‘Muzilengaano zyamumutwe wangu kandilede abulo bwangu, ndakabona cisamu+ akati kanyika, cisamu eeco cakali cilamfwu kapati.+
11 Cisamu eeci cakakomena akuba anguzu, alimwi cakalampa mane kuyoosika kujulu, alimwi cakali kulibonya akumagolelo aanyika yoonse.
12 Cakajisi matuvwu mabotu, alimwi micelo yancico yakali minji kapati, eelyo aalincico kwakali cakulya cazintu zyoonse. Banyama bamusyokwe bakali kuyusa mucimvwiide cancico, alimwi bayuni bamujulu bakali kukkala mumitabi yancico, azyalo zilenge zyoonse zyakali kujana zyakulya kulincico.
13 “‘Nindakali kulanga zilengaano zyamumutwe wangu kandilede abulo bwangu, ndakabona mulindizi uusalala, kaseluka kuzwa kujulu.+
14 Wakoongolola ajwi lipati kuti: “Amucigonke cisamu eeco,+ amugonke mitabi yancico, amuciyuunye kutegwa matuvwu aancico akunkumuke alimwi amumwaye micelo yancico! Banyama abatije kuzwa munsi lyancico, abayuni kuzwa mumitabi yancico.
15 Pele amusiye cisiko amiyanda yancico munyika, kacizambaidwe butale amukuba mubwizu bwamusyokwe. Amucilekele kuti kaciteta kumume uuzwa kujulu, alimwi akukkala antoomwe abanyama bamusyokwe akati kazimena ansi.+
16 Moyo wancico wabuntu aucincigwe ube wabunyama, alimwi acilekwe mane kwiinde+ ziindi zili ciloba.+
17 Lubeta oolu lwaambilizyigwa abalindizi+ alimwi mulazyo ooyu waambwa abasalali, kutegwa bantu bapona bazyibe kuti Mupatikampatila ngo Mweendelezi weendelezya mubwami bwabantu,+ alimwi akuti bwalo ulabupa kufwumbwa ngwayanda, alimwi ulabikka naba muntu muniini kapati akati kabantu kuti abe mweendelezi wambubo.”
18 “‘Eeci nceciloto ncendakalota, mebo nde Mwami Nebukadinezara; lino yebo O Belitsazara, kocipandulula mbokunga baalumi bambi boonse basongo bamubwami bwangu tabakonzyi kundaambila bupanduluzi bwancico.+ Pele yebo ulakonzya kucita oobo, nkaambo ujisi muuya wabaleza basalala.’
19 “Aciindi eeco Daniele, ooyo uujisi zina lyakuti Belitsazara,+ wakagambwa kapati kwaciindi cili mbocibede, alimwi mizeezo yakwe yakamuyoosya.
“Mpoonya mwami wakaamba kuti, ‘O Belitsazara, ciloto eeci abupanduluzi bwancico zitakuyoosyi pe.’
“Eelyo Belitsazara wakavwiila kuti, ‘Osimalelaangu, ciloto eeci acijatikizye baabo bakusulide, abupanduluzi bwancico abujatikizye basinkondonyoko.
20 “‘Cisamu ncookabona, icakakomena kapati akuba anguzu alimwi icakalampa mane kusika kujulu, icakali kulibonya munyika yoonse,+
21 icakajisi matuvwu mabotu, icakajisi micelo minji kapati, eeco cakajisi cakulya cazintu zyoonse, alimwi munsi lyancico imwakali kukkala banyama bamusyokwe, alimwi icakajisi mitabi mwakali kukkala bayuni bamujulu,+
22 nduwe omwami, nkaambo wakomena kapati akuba anguzu, alimwi bupati bwako bwakomena kapati akusika kujulu,+ abwalo bulelo bwako bwasika kumagolelo aanyika.+
23 “‘Alimwi mwami wakabona mulindizi uusalala,+ kaseluka kuzwa kujulu, ooyo iwakaamba kuti: “Amucigonke cisamu eeco akucinyonyoona, pele amucisiye cisiko amiyanda yancico munyika kacizambaidwe butale amukuba mubwizu bwamusyokwe. Amucilekele kuti kaciteta kumume uuzwa kujulu, alimwi akuti kacikkala antoomwe abanyama bamusyokwe kusikila mane kwiinde ziindi zili ciloba.”+
24 Mboobu bupanduluzi, omwami; oolu ndubeta ndwaakosola Mupatikampatila kujatikizya zintu zilaacitikile simalelaangu, mwami.
25 Yebo uyootandwa kuzwa akati kabantu, eelyo unookkala antoomwe abanyama bamusyokwe, uyoopegwa bwizu kuti kolya mbubonya mbuli ŋombe; alimwi unooteta akaambo kamume uuzwa kujulu,+ alimwi ziindi zili ciloba+ ziyoomanina aalinduwe,+ kusikila mane yebo ukazyibe kuti Mupatikampatila ngo Mweendelezi weendelezya mubwami bwabantu, akuti bwalo ulabupa kufwumbwa ngwayanda.+
26 “‘Pele mbokunga bakaamba kuti cisiko cacisamu eeco amiyanda yancico zilekwe buyo,+ bwami bwako buyoopilusyigwa kulinduwe waakuzyiba kuti ijulu ndilyeendelezya.
27 Aboobo, omwami, kotambula lulayo lwangu. Kozileka zibi zyako kwiinda mukucita bululami, abubi bwako kwiinda mukubafwida luse bacete. Ambweni ciindi cako cakukkala kabotu cilayungizyigwa.’”+
28 Zintu eezyi zyoonse zyakamucitikila Mwami Nebukadinezara.
29 Nikwakainda myezi iili 12 wakali kweendeenda aciluli caŋanda yabwami ya Babuloni.
30 Imwami wakali kwaamba kuti: “Sena munzi ooyu tauli Babuloni Mupati, mebo lwangu ngondakayaka kuti ube ŋanda yamwami anguzu zyangu zinji alimwi akuti ube bulemu bwabweendelezi bwangu?”
31 Lino mwami naakacili kwaambaula, kwakazwa jwi kujulu ilyakaamba kuti: “Yebo O Mwami Nebukadinezara waambilwa kuti, ‘Bwami bwazwa mumaanza aako,+
32 balakutanda kuzwa akati kabantu. Unookkala abanyama bamusyokwe, uyoopegwa bwizu kuti kolya mbubonya mbuli ŋombe, alimwi ziindi zili ciloba ziyakumanina aalinduwe, kusikila mane ukazyibe kuti Mupatikampatila ngo Mweendelezi weendelezya mubwami bwabantu, alimwi akuti bwalo ulabupa kufwumbwa ngwayanda.’”+
33 Aciindi eeco, ijwi lyakazuzikizyigwa kuli Nebukadinezara. Wakatandwa kuzwa akati kabantu, aboobo wakatalika kulya bwizu mbubonya mbuli ŋombe, awalo mubili wakwe wakateta kumume uuzwa kujulu, kusikila mane masusu aakwe akalampa kapati mbuli mapepe aabasikwaze alimwi mala aakwe akaba mbuli mala aabayuni.+
34 “Mpoonya kumamanino aaciindi eeco,+ mebo nde Nebukadinezara, ndakalungumana akulanga kujulu, alimwi maano aangu akajokela mulindime; ndakatembaula Mupatikampatila, alimwi ndakamutembaula akumulemeka ooyo uupona lyoonse alyoonse mane kukabe kutamani, nkaambo bweendelezi bwakwe mbweendelezi butamani abwalo bwami bwakwe mbwami bwakuzyalani azyalani.+
35 Bantu boonse bakkala munyika babonwa buyo kuti taakwe mbobabede, alimwi walo ulacita kweelana akuyanda kwakwe akati kamakamu aakujulu alimwi abantu bakkala munyika. Kunyina naba omwe uukonzya kumukasya+ nokuba kumubuzya kuti, ‘Ino ucita nzi?’+
36 “Aciindi nciconya eeco, maano aangu akajokela mulindime, abwalo bulemu bwabwami bwangu, abupati bwangu alimwi abweebesi bwangu zyakajokela kulindime.+ Balupati-pati bangu alimwi ankumekume zyangu bakandiyandaula caluyandisisyo, mpoonya ndakajokezyegwa mubwami bwangu alimwi ndakayungizyilwa bulemu bunji kapati.
37 “Lino mebo, nde Nebukadinezara, ndilamutembaula, ndilamusumpula akumulemeka Mwami wakujulu,+ nkaambo milimo yakwe yoonse njakasimpe alimwi nzila zyakwe nzyabululami,+ alimwi akaambo kakuti walo ulakonzya kubafwiinsya aabo ibeenda cakulisumpula.”+
