1Ngomnyaka wesibili wokubusa kukaNebukadinesari uNebukadinesari waphupha amaphupho, umoya wakhe waphazamiseka, nobuthongo bakhe bameqa.
2Inkosi yasilaya ukuthi kubizwe izanusi labathakathi labathakathi lamaKhaladiya ukuze bamtshele inkosi amaphupho ayo. Bafike bema phambi kwenkosi.
3Inkosi yasisithi kubo: Ngiphuphe iphupho; umoya wami wakhathazeka ukuze ngilazi iphupho.
4AmaKaledi aseSiriya akhuluma enkosini, wathi: “Nkosi, phila kuze kube phakade; tshela izinceku zakho iphupho, thina siyakwembula incazelo.
5Inkosi yaphendula, yathi kumaKaledi: “Indaba isuke kimi; uma ningangazisi iphupho nencazo yalo, niyakunqunywa, izindlu zenu zenziwe iquba.
6Kepha uma nembula iphupho nencazo yalo, niyakwamukela izipho nemivuzo nodumo olukhulu kimi; ngalokho mangazise iphupho nencazo yalo.
7Base bephendula futhi, bathi: “Inkosi mayitshele izinceku zayo iphupho, thina siyakwazisa incazelo yalo.”
8Inkosi yasiphendula yathi: Ngiyazi ukuthi lizazuza isikhathi, ngoba liyabona ukuthi ilizwi lisukile kimi.
9Kepha uma ningangazisi iphupho, munye kuphela umyalo kini; besengitshela iphupho, ngizakwazi ukuthi lingangitshela ingcazelo yalo.
10AmaKaledi aphendula phambi kwenkosi, athi: “Akukho muntu emhlabeni ongatshela indaba yenkosi;
11Futhi kuyivelakancane into efunwa yinkosi, futhi akekho omunye ongayibonisa phambi kwenkosi, ngaphandle konkulunkulu abakhaya labo lingekho nenyama.
12Ngakho inkosi yathukuthela, yathukuthela kakhulu, yasilaya ukuthi kubhujiswe bonke abahlakaniphileyo beBhabhiloni.
13Kwaphuma umyalo wokuthi abahlakaniphileyo babulawe; bafuna uDaniyeli nabangane bakhe ukuba babulawe.
14UDaniyeli wayesephendula ngeseluleko nangokuhlakanipha ku-Ariyogi induna yabalindi benkosi owayephumele ukubulala abahlakaniphileyo baseBabele.
15Wasephendula wathi kuAriyogi induna yenkosi: Kungani ilizwi lenkosi liphangisa kangaka? Khona-ke u-Ariyogi wembula le ndaba kuDaniyeli.
16Khona-ke uDaniyeli wangena wacela enkosini ukuba imnike isikhathi nokuba abonise incazelo enkosini.
17Khona-ke uDaniyeli waya endlini yakhe wabikela abangane bakhe uHananiya, uMishayeli no-Azariya le ndaba.
18Ukuze bacele umusa kuNkulunkulu wezulu ngale mfihlakalo; ukuze uDaniyeli nabangane bakhe bangabhubhi kanye nabanye abahlakaniphileyo baseBhabhiloni.
19Khona-ke imfihlo yembulwa kuDaniyeli ngombono wasebusuku. UDaniyeli wasembonga uNkulunkulu wezulu.
20UDaniyeli waphendula wathi: “Malibongwe igama likaNkulunkulu kuze kube phakade naphakade, ngokuba ukuhlakanipha namandla kungokwakhe.
21Uyaguqula izikhathi nezikhathi; ususa amakhosi, abeke amakhosi; Unika abahlakaniphileyo ukuhlakanipha nolwazi kwabakwaziyo ukuqonda.
22Wembula okujulileyo nokufihliweyo: uyakwazi okusebumnyameni, nokukhanya kuhlala kuye.
23Ngiyakubonga, ngiyakudumisa, Nkulunkulu wawobaba, owangipha ukuhlakanipha namandla, wangazisa lokho ebesikucela kuwe, ngokuba ususazisile manje indaba yenkosi.
24Ngakho uDaniyeli wangena ku-Ariyogi owayemiswe inkosi ukuba abhubhise abahlakaniphileyo baseBabele; wahamba, wathi kuye: “Ungabhubhisi abahlakaniphileyo baseBabele; ngiyise enkosini, ngitshele inkosi incazelo.
25Khona-ke u-Ariyogi washesha wamyisa uDaniyeli phambi kwenkosi, wathi kuyo: “Ngithole umuntu eziboshwa zakwaJuda ozotshela inkosi incazelo.
26Inkosi yaphendula, yathi kuDaniyeli ogama lakhe lalinguBeliteshasari: “Ungangazisa yini iphupho engilibonile kanye nencazelo yalo na?”
27UDaniyeli waphendula phambi kwenkosi, wathi: “Imfihlakalo inkosi eyibuzayo, nabahlakaniphileyo, nabathakathi, nabathakathi, nabahlola imihlola, abanakwazise inkosi;
28Kodwa kukhona uNkulunkulu ezulwini owambula izimfihlo futhi uyazisa inkosi uNebhukhadinezari okuzakwenzeka ekupheleni kwezinsuku. Leli yiphupho lakho nobuso bekhanda lakho embhedeni wakho;
29Wena-ke, nkosi, imicabango yakho yafika engqondweni yakho embhedeni wakho okuzakwenzeka emva kwalokho; futhi owembula izimfihlo uyakwazisa kuwe okuzokwenzeka.
30Kodwa mina, le mfihlo angembulelwanga ngenxa yokuhlakanipha enginakho kunabo bonke abaphilayo, kodwa ngenxa yalabo abayakwazisa inkosi incazelo, futhi wazi imicabango yenhliziyo yakho.
31Wena, nkosi, wabona, futhi bheka, kwakukhona isithombe esikhulu. Lesi sithombe esikhulu, ukubengezela kwaso kwakukuhle, sasimi phambi kwakho; nokuma kwayo kwakukubi.
32Ikhanda lalesi sithombe laliyigolide elihle, isifuba saso nezingalo zaso kuyisiliva, isisu saso nezinkalo zaso kuyithusi;
33imilenze yakhe iyinsimbi, izinyawo zakhe inxenye ziyinsimbi nenxenye yobumba.
34Wabona kwaze kwaqheshulwa itshe kungengazandla, lashaya isithombe ezinyaweni zaso, esiyinsimbi nobumba, lasiphahlaza laba yizicucu.
35Khona-ke insimbi, nobumba, nethusi, nesiliva, negolide kwachotshozwa kanyekanye, kwaba njengamakhoba ezibuya zasehlobo; umoya wazisusa, akwaze kwatholakala indawo yazo, netshe elashaya isithombe laba yintaba enkulu, lagcwalisa umhlaba wonke.
36Nali iphupho; siyakuchaza incazelo yalo phambi kwenkosi.
37Wena, nkosi, uyinkosi yamakhosi, ngokuba uNkulunkulu wezulu ukunikile umbuso, namandla, namandla, nenkazimulo.
38Nomaphi lapho kuhlala khona abantwana babantu, izilwane zasendle nezinyoni zezulu, wakunikela esandleni sakho, wakumisa ube ngumbusi phezu kwakho konke. Wena uyikhanda legolide.
39Emva kwakho kuyakuvela omunye umbuso omncane kunawe, nomunye umbuso wesithathu wethusi oyakubusa emhlabeni wonke.
40Umbuso wesine uyakuba namandla njengensimbi, ngokuba insimbi iphahlaza, ithobe konke; futhi njengensimbi ewuqhekeza wonke, uyophuka futhi uphahlaze.
41Wabona izinyawo nezinzwani, inxenye ilubumba lombumbi nenxenye iyinsimbi, umbuso uyakuhlukana phakathi; kepha kuyakuba khona amandla ensimbi, ngokuba wabona insimbi ixubene nodaka lodaka.
42Njengalokhu amazwane ezinyawo ayeyingxenye yensimbi nengxenye yobumba, kanjalo umbuso uyakuba namandla nganxanye, uphukeke nganxanye.
43Futhi lapho wabona insimbi ixubene nobumba lobumba, bayozixuba nenzalo yabantu; kodwa ngeke zinamathele ndawonye, njengoba nje insimbi ingaxutshwa nobumba.
44Futhi ezinsukwini zala makhosi uNkulunkulu wezulu uyovusa umbuso ongayikuchithwa phakade; umbuso awuyikushiyelwa kwabanye abantu, kepha uyakuphahlaza, uqede yonke le mibuso, wona uqobo ume phakade.
45Ngokuba wabona ukuthi itshe laqheshulwa entabeni kungengazandla, laphahlaza insimbi, nethusi, nobumba, nesiliva, negolide; uNkulunkulu omkhulu wayazisa inkosi okuzakwenzeka emva kwalokho; iphupho laliqinisekile, nencazelo yalo iqinisekile.
46Inkosi uNebukadinesari yawa ngobuso, yakhuleka kuDaniyeli, yayala ukuba balethe kuye umnikelo womlilo namakha amnandi.
47Inkosi yamphendula uDaniyeli, yathi: “Kuyiqiniso ukuthi uNkulunkulu wakho unguNkulunkulu wawonkulunkulu, neNkosi yamakhosi, nomambuli wezimfihlakalo, lokhu wena ukwazile ukwambula le mfihlakalo;
48Inkosi yasimphakamisa uDaniyeli, yamupha izipho ezinkulu ezinengi, yammisa waba ngumbusi phezu kwesifunda sonke saseBhabhiloni lenduna yababusi phezu kwabo bonke abahlakaniphileyo beBhabhiloni.
49UDaniyeli wayeseyicela enkosini, yabeka oShadiraki, noMeshaki, no-Abhedinego phezu kwezindaba zesifunda saseBabele; kodwa uDaniyeli wayehlezi esangweni lenkosi.
