Daniyeli 6 UDaniyeli nomphandu wengonyama

¹ Kwaba kuhle kuDariyu ukumisa izikhulu eziyikhulu namashumi amabili phezu kombuso, zibe phezu kombuso wonke;

² Lalaba ngabongameli abathathu; uDaniyeli wayengowokuqala kubo, ukuze izikhulu ziphendule kubo, inkosi ingabi nangozi.

³ Khona-ke lo Daniyeli wakhethwa ngaphezu kwabongameli nezikhulu, ngoba umoya omuhle kakhulu wawukuye; inkosi yacabanga ukummisa phezu kombuso wonke.

⁴ Khona abongameli nezikhulu bafuna ukuthola isizathu ngoDaniyeli ngombuso; kodwa abatholanga sizathu noma iphutha; ngokuba wayethembekile, akutholwanga siphambeko nacala kuye.

⁵ Lawa madoda athi: “Asiyikuthola cala ngalo Daniyeli, ngaphandle kokuthi silithole kuye ngenxa yomthetho kaNkulunkulu wakhe.”

⁶ Laba bongameli nezikhulu babuthana enkosini, bathi kuyo: “Nkosi Dariyu, phila kuze kube phakade!

⁷ Bonke abongameli bombuso, nababusi, nezikhulu, nabeluleki, nababusi, bacebisana ukuba kumiswe isimiso sobukhosi, benze isinqumo esiqinile, sokuthi yilowo nalowo ocela isicelo kunoma yimuphi uNkulunkulu noma acele izinsuku ezingamashumi amathathu, ngaphandle kwakho, nkosi, iyophonswa emphandwini wezingonyama.

⁸ Khathesi qinisa umthetho, nkosi, usayine umbhalo, ukuze ungaguquki njengomthetho wamaMede lamaPheresiya ongaguqukiyo.

⁹ Ngakho inkosi uDariyu yawusayina umbhalo nomthetho.

¹⁰ UDaniyeli esezwile ukuthi umbhalo usayiniwe, wangena endlini yakhe; amafasitele ekamelo lakhe evulekile ngaseJerusalema, waguqa ngamadolo kathathu ngosuku, wakhuleka, wabonga uNkulunkulu wakhe, njengalokho ebenzile ngaphambili.

¹¹ Khona lamadoda abuthana amfumana uDaniyeli ekhuleka enxusa phambi kukaNkulunkulu wakhe.

¹² Base besondela bakhuluma phambi kwenkosi ngesiyalezo senkosi; Awusayinanga yini umyalo wokuthi yilowo nalowo ocela isicelo kunoma yimuphi kuNkulunkulu noma kumuntu ngezinsuku ezingamashumi amathathu, ngaphandle kwakho, nkosi, uyakuphonswa emphandwini wezingonyama? Inkosi yaphendula yathi: “Indaba iqinisile ngokomthetho wamaMede namaPheresiya ongaguqukiyo.

¹³ Base bephendula, bathi phambi kwenkosi: “UDaniyeli, wabantwana bokuthunjwa bakwaJuda, akakulaleli, nkosi, noma umyalo owusayinileyo, kepha wenza isicelo sakhe kathathu ngosuku.

¹⁴ Lapho inkosi isizwa lawa mazwi, yathukuthela kakhulu, yabeka inhliziyo yayo kuDaniyeli ukuba imkhulule; wasebenza kwaze kwashona ilanga ukumkhulula.

¹⁵ Lawa madoda ayesebuthana nenkosi, athi enkosini: “Yazi, nkosi, ukuthi umthetho wamaMede namaPheresiya uthi akukho simemezelo nesimiso inkosi esimisayo esingaguqulwa.

¹⁶ Khona-ke inkosi yayala, bamletha uDaniyeli, bamphonsa emphandwini wezingonyama. Inkosi yasikhuluma, yathi kuDaniyeli: UNkulunkulu wakho omkhonza njalo, uzakukhulula.

¹⁷ Kwalethwa itshe, labekwa phezu komgodi womgodi; inkosi yayisinamathelisa ngendandatho yayo yophawu nangendandatho yophawu lwezikhulu zayo; ukuze kungaguqulwa inhloso ngoDaniyeli.

¹⁸ Inkosi yayisingena endlini yayo, yachitha ubusuku izila ukudla; alethwanga izinsimbi zomculo phambi kwakhe, ubuthongo bakhe bamuka kuye.

¹⁹ Khona-ke inkosi yavuka ekuseni kakhulu yaphuthuma emphandwini wezingonyama.

²⁰ Lapho ifika emgodini, yakhala kuDaniyeli ngesililo; inkosi yakhuluma, yathi kuDaniyeli: “Daniyeli, nceku kaNkulunkulu ophilayo, uNkulunkulu wakho omkhonza njalo unamandla okukophula ezingonyameni na?

²¹ UDaniyeli wasesithi enkosini: O nkosi, phila kuze kube nininini!

²² UNkulunkulu wami uthumile ingelosi yakhe, yavala imilomo yamabhubesi, ukuze angangilimazanga, ngokuba kutholwe kimi ngingenacala phambi kwakhe; futhi phambi kwakho, nkosi, angenzanga okubi.

²³ Khona-ke inkosi yajabula kakhulu ngaye, yayala ukuba bamkhiphe uDaniyeli emgodini. UDaniyeli wakhishwa emgodini, akwafunyanwa ububi kuye, ngokuba wayekholwa kuNkulunkulu wakhe.

²⁴ Inkosi yasilaya, alethwa amadoda ayemangalele uDaniyeli, awaphosela emphandwini wezingonyama, wona, nabantwana bawo, nawomkawo; amabhubesi ababamba, bawaphula onke amathambo abo, noma baze bafika phansi emgodini.

²⁵ UDariyu inkosi wayeselobela bonke abantu, nezizwe, nezilimi ezikhona emhlabeni wonke; Ukuthula kuphindaphindwe kuwe.

²⁶ Ngikhipha umyalo wokuba abantu kuyo yonke imibuso yombuso wami bathuthumele futhi besabe phambi kukaNkulunkulu kaDaniyeli, ngoba unguNkulunkulu ophilayo nogxilile kuze kube phakade, nombuso wakhe ongayikuchithwa, nokubusa kwakhe kuyolingana. Kuze kube sekupheleni.

²⁷ Uyahlenga, asindise, wenza izibonakaliso nezimangaliso ezulwini nasemhlabeni, owakhulula uDaniyeli emandleni ezingonyama.

²⁸ Kanjalo uDaniyeli lo waba nempumelelo ekubuseni kukaDariyu nasekubuseni kukaKoresi umPheresiya.
