1Ngomnyaka wesibini wobukumkani bukaNebhukadenetsare, uNebhukadenetsare waphupha amaphupha; waphazamiseka umoya wakhe, walala ubuthongo. 2Ukumkani wathi makubizwe izanuse, nabakhafuli, nabakhafuli, namaKaledi, ukuba bamxelele ukumkani amaphupha akhe. Baya kwandula ke beme phambi kokumkani. 3Wathi uYehova kubo, Ndiphuphe iphupha; 4Athi amaKaledi akwa-Aram kukumkani, Yehova, yidla ubomi ngonaphakade! balawulele abakhonzi bakho iphupha elo, solutyhila usindiso. 5Waphendula ukumkani wathi kumaGalati, Indishiyile le nto; ukuba anithanga nindixelele iphupha, nokutyhilwa kwalo, niya kwenziwa iziqwenga, izindlu zenu zibe ngamanxuwa. 6Ukuba nithe nalityhila iphupha, nokutyhilwa kwalo, nozuza izipho, nemivuzo, nembeko enkulu kum; ke ngoko, mandilazise iphupha nokutyhilwa kwalo. 7Aphendula okwesibini athi, uYehova makabalawulele abakhonzi bakhe iphupha elo; sokuxelela ukutyhilwa kwalo. 8uNdikhoyo waphendula wathi: “Ndiyazi ukuba uza kukhululeka, kuba uyabona ukuba le nto indishiyile. 9Kodwa ukuba anithanga nindichazele elo phupha, mnye kuphela umyalelo kuni: kuba nilungiselele amazwi obuxoki nawonakeleyo ukuba niwathethe phambi kobuso bam de kutshintshe ixesha; nindixelele ke iphupha elo, ndazi ke ukuba nondixelela ukutyhilwa kwalo. 10Aphendula amaKaledi phambi kokumkani, athi, Akukho mntu ehlabathini lonke uyixelayo indaba kakumkani; 11Yinto engaqhelekanga leyo ukumkani ayifunayo; akukho bani unokuyixela phambi kokumkani, ingengako oothixo abakhaya lingekho senyameni. 12Waqumba ke ukumkani, waba noburhalarhume obukhulu, wathi mazibulawe zonke izilumko zaseBhabheli. 13Kwaphuma umthetho wokuba mazibulawe izilumko; kwaye babefuna ukuba uDaniyeli namahlakani akhe babulawe. 14Wandula ke uDaniyeli wathetha ngecebo nangobulumko kuAriyogi umthetheli wamafanankosi kakumkani owayephumele ukubulala izilumko zaseBhabhiloni. 15Waphendula wathi kuAriyoge, umthetheli-mkhosi wokumkani, Yini na ukuba umthetho onje ukuba bukhali kokumkani? Emva koko uArioges wayityhilela le nto kuDaniyeli. 16Waza uDaniyeli wangena, wacela ukumkani ukuba amnike ixesha, aze amcacisele ukumkani. 17Emva koko uDaniyeli waya endlwini yakhe waza waxelela abahlobo bakhe uHananiya noMishayeli noAzariya ngale nto; 18ukuze bacele inceba kuThixo wamazulu, ngayo le mfihlelo; ukuze bangatshatyalaliswa uDaniyeli namakholwane akhe, ndawonye nezilumko zaseBhabheli. 19Waza wayityhilelwa uDaniyeli loo mfihlakalo ngombono wasebusuku. Waza uDaniyeli wambonga uThixo wamazulu. 20Waphendula uDaniyeli wathi, Malibongwe igama likaThixo ngonaphakade kanaphakade, ngokuba ubulumko nobugorha bobakhe. 21Yena uyawaguqula ke amaxesha namaxesha; uguzula ookumkani, amise ookumkani; Unika ubulumko kwizilumko, unika ukwazi kwabakwaziyo ukuqonda. 22Yena utyhila into enzulu nezisitheleyo; uyakwazi okusebumnyameni, kuhleli ukukhanya kubo. 23Ndiyabulela kuwe yaye ndiyakudumisa, Thixo woobawo, ondinike ubulumko namandla yaye ngoku undazise oko besikucelile kuwe, ngenxa yokuba usazisile ngoku umbandela welizwe elingcwele ukumkani. 24uDaniyeli waya kuAriyogi, lowo wayeyalelwe ngukumkani ukuba atshatyalaliswe izilumko zaseBhabheli waya wathi kuye, Musa ukuzitshabalalisa izilumko zaseBhabheli; Ndizise kukumkani, ukuze ndimxelele ukumkani ingcaciso. 25uAriyogi wangxama wamsa uDaniyeli kukumkani, wathi kuye, Ndifumene indoda yamabanjwa akwaYuda, ize kubikela ukumkani le ngcaciso. 26Waphendula uYehova, wathi kuDaniyeli, ogama linguBheletshatsare, Ungakwazi na ukundixelela iphupha endilibonileyo, nokutyhilwa kwalo? 27Waphendula uDaniyeli phambi kokumkani, wathi, Imfihlakalo abeyicelile ukumkani, izilumko, nabakhwitsi, nabakhwitsi, nabakhafuli, abayi kuyixela kukumkani; 28Kodwa ke kukho uThixo emazulwini, ozityhilayo iimfihlakalo, onokumazisa ukumkani uNebhukadenetsare okuya kubakho ekupheleni kwemihla. Lilo elo iphupha lenu, nobuso beentloko zenu ezinkukweni zenu; 29Wena kumkani, izicamango zakho zathi tyaba kuwe, esesililini sakho, ukuba kuya kubakho ntoni na emveni koko; noMtyhili weemfihlakalo uyakwazisa okuya kubakho. 30Mna le mfihlakalo, ukuyityhilelwa kwam, akungenxa yobulumko endinabo ngaphezu kwabaphilileyo bonke; kungenxa yokuba ndiya kumazisa ukumkani le mfihlakalo, ukuze uzazi izicamango zentliziyo eyakho. 31Wena kumkani, ukhangele, kwaye ubone, kukho umfanekiso omkhulu. Lo mfanekiso mkhulu, kubengezela kubengezela, ubumi phambi kwakho; nokumila kwawo kwakusoyikeka. 32Intloko yaloo mfanekiso ibiyigolide esulungekileyo, isifuba sawo nezandla zawo ziyisilivere, isisu sawo namanqe awo elubhedu; 33Amacala ayo asintsimbi, imilenze yawo yintsimbi, yaye inxalenye yawo ludongwe. 34Wabona, lada latyumka ilitye, kungengazandla zabantu; 35Ziya kwaphulwa ndawonye isinyithi, nodongwe, nobhedu, nesilivere, negolide, zibe njengomququ wengqolowa yasehlotyeni; Wazithabatha umoya, azaba nandawo; lathi ilitye elo, libethileyo emfanekisweni, laba yintaba enkulu, lazalisa ihlabathi lonke. 36Lilo elo iphupha; ingcaciso yayo soyixela phambi kokumkani. 37Wena kumkani, ungukumkani wookumkani, ngenxa yokuba uThixo wamazulu ukunike ubukumkani, namandla, namandla, nozuko; 38Apho bahleli khona oonyana babantu, izinto ezizitho zine, neentaka zezulu, wazibeka ezandleni zakho, wakwenza umlawuli wazo zonke. Wena le ntloko yegolide. 39Emveni kwakho kuya kuvela obunye ubukumkani obuncinane kunawe, nobunye ubukumkani besithathu bobhedu, obuya kulawula ihlabathi lonke. 40Ubukumkani babo buya kuba njengesinyithi ukomelela, ngenxa enokuba isinyithi saphuka, sityumza yonke into; nanjengentsimbi eqhekeze zonke, uya kwaphuka aze aphuke. 41Njengoko nizibonayo iinyawo neenzwane, enye inxalenye iludongwe lombumbi, enye inxalenye iyisinyithi, ubukumkani buya kuba bobahlukeneyo; kobakho ukomelela kwesinyithi kuwo, ngenxa enokuba isinyithi sixutywe nodongwe nodongwe. 42Iinzwane beziyintsimbi ngenxalenye, ziludongwe njengenxalenye, ubukumkani buya komelela kwenye, buqhekezwe kwesinye. 43Njengoko ubona isinyithi sixutywe nodongwe, baya kuxubana nembewu yomntu; kodwa aziyi kunamathelana, kanye njengoko intsimbi ingaxubani nodongwe. 44Ngemihla yabo kumkani, uThixo wezulu uya kumisa ubukumkani obungayi konakala naphakade; yaye obo bukumkani abuyi kushiyelwa kwezinye iintlanga, kodwa buya kuzitshabalalisa zonke ezo zikumkani, buze bume ngonaphakade. 45Nalibonayo, ukuba ilitye laqhekezwa entabeni, kungengazandla, lasiqhekeza isinyithi, nobhedu, nodongwe, nesilivere, negolide; uThixo omkhulu wamxelela ukumkani okuya kwenzeka emva koko. 46Waza ukumkani uNebhukadenetsare wawa ngobuso bakhe, waqubuda kuDaniyeli, wathi maziziswe kuye umnikelo womlilo nesiqhumiso esimnandi. 47uYehova wamphendula uDaniyeli, wathi, Yinyaniso ukuba uThixo wakho unguThixo woothixo, uNkosi yookumkani, umtyhili weemfihlakalo, ekubeni ukwazile ukuyityhila le mfihlelo. 48Waza ukumkani wamenza mkhulu uDaniyeli, wampha izipho ezikhulu ezininzi, wammisa ukuba abe ngumphathi welizwe lonke laseBhabheli, nomthetheli wabathetheli bezilumko zonke zaseBhabheli. 49Waza uDaniyeli wacela kukumkani, wabamisela ooShadraki, noMeshaki, noAbhednego, ukuba balawule iphondo laseBhabheli; ke uDaniyeli wayehleli esangweni lokumkani.
