UDaniyeli Chapter6
1 Kwakholeka kuDariyo ukumisa phezu kobukumkani iirhuluneli ezilikhulu elinamashumi amabini, ukuze zibe sebukumkanini bonke.
2 Wamisa phezu kwazo ezo abongameli babathathu, omnye kubo inguDaniyeli, ukuze iirhuluneli zinike ingxelo kubo, aze ukumkani angabi nankxwaleko.
3 Waza lo Daniyeli wabongamela abongameli nabaziirhuluneli, ngokokuba egqithisele kubongameli ngomoya omhle; ukumkani wacinga ngokummisa phezu kobukumkani bonke.
4 Baza abongameli nabaziirhuluneli bafuna, ukuba bafumane ithuba ngakuDaniyeli mayela nobukumkani. Ke ababanga nako ukufumana nalinye ithuba, nantlondi imbi, ngenxa enokuba ebethembekile; bekungafumaneki nanye imposiso nantlondi imbi kuye.
5 Aza loo madoda athi, Asiyi kufumana nalinye ithuba ngakulo Daniyeli, ngaphandle kokuba silifumane kuye mayela nomthetho woThixo wakhe.
6 Baza abo bangabongameli nabaziirhuluneli beza kukumkani bedlongozela, batsho kuye ukuthi, Kumkani Dariyo, phila ngonaphakade!
7 Bonke abongameli bobukumkani, nabathetheli bomkhosi, neerhuluneli, namaphakathi, namabamba, bavumelene ngecebo lokuba ukumkani amise ummiselo, aqinise isalelo sokuthi:Bonke abathandaza umthandazo nakongubani, uthixo nomntu, ongenguwe, kumkani, ngeentsuku ezimashumi mathathu, mabajulelwe emhadini weengonyama.
8 Kaloku ke, kumkani, siqinise isalelo, uwubhale umbhalo, ongenakuguqulwa wona, ngokomthetho wamaMedi namaPersi, ongenakutshitshiwa bani.
9 Ngenxa yoko ukumkani uDariyo wawubhala umbhalo lowo, isalelo eso.
10 Ke kaloku uDaniyeli, akwazi ukuba umbhalo lowo ubhaliwe, wangena endlwini yakhe; ibe neefestile zivulekile egumbini lakhe eliphezulu, elikhangele eYerusalem. Waguqa ngamadolo akhe izihlandlo ezithathu ngemini, wathandaza, wabulela phambi koThixo wakhe, ngenxa enokuba ebesenjenjalo kakade.
11 Aza adlongoza la madoda, amfumana uDaniyeli ethandaza, etarhuzisa phambi koThixo wakhe.
12 Ezo asondela, athetha phambi kokumkani ngesalelo sokumkani, athi, Akusibhalanga na isalelo sokuthi:Bonke abathandaza nakongubani, uthixo nomntu, ongenguwe, kumkani, ngeentsuku ezimashumi mathathu, mabajulelwe emhadini weengonyama? Waphendula ukumkani wathi, Loo nto iqinisekile ngokomthetho wamaMedi namaPersi, ongenakutshitshiswa bani wona.
13 Aza aphendula athi phambi kokumkani, UDaniyeli, ongowakoonyana abathinjiweyo bakwaYuda, akakhathali nguwe, kumkani, nasesi salelo usibhalileyo; ke uthandaza umthandazo wakhe kathathu ngemini.
14 Waza ukumkani, akuweva loo mazwi, weva kakubi kakhulu ngayo loo nto. Wamnyamekela uDaniyeli ukuba amsindise, wazama ukuba amhlangule, lada latshona ilanga.
15 Aza la madoda eza edlongozela kukumkani, athi kukumkani, Yazi, kumkani, ukuba amaMedi namaPersi anomthetho wokuba singabi nakuguqulwa sonke isalelo nommiselo, abewumisile ukumkani.
16 Watsho ke ukumkani; bamzisa uDaniyeli, bamjulela emhadini weengonyama. Waphendula ukumkani wathi kuDaniyeli, Wanga uThixo wakho, ombusa ngamaxesha onke, angakusindisa.
17 Kwaziswa ilitye, labekwa phezu komlomo womhadi; ukumkani walitywina ngomsesane wakhe wokutywina, nangomsesane wokutywina wezikhulu zakhe, ukuze kungaguqulwa nto mayela noDaniyeli.
18 Waza ukumkani waya ebhotweni lakhe, wabugqiba ubusuku ezila ukudla; akwaziswa zintombi zingqungqayo phambi kwakhe, waphelelwa bubuthongo.
19 Waza ukumkani wavuka ngesifingo kwakusasa, waya emhadini weengonyama ngobungxamo.
20 Akusondela emhadini, wadanduluka kuDaniyeli ngezwi elibuhlungu. Wasusela ukumkani, wathi kuDaniyeli, Daniyeli, mkhonzi woThixo ophilileyo, uThixo wakho, obuhlala umbusa, ube nako na ukukusindisa ezingonyameni?
21 Waza uDaniyeli wathi kukumkani, Kumkani, phila ngonaphakade!
22 UThixo wam uthume isithunywa sakhe, sayivingca imilomo yeengonyama, ukuba zingandenzakalisi, ngenxa enokuba phambi kwakhe kufumaneke ukuba ndimsulwa; naphambi kwakho, kumkani, andonanga.
23 Waza ukumkani wavuya kunene, wathi uDaniyeli makanyuswe emhadini. Wenyuswa ke uDaniyeli. Akwafumaneka nasinye isenzakalo kuye; ngokuba ebekholwe kuThixo wakhe.
24 Ukumkani wayalela, aziswa loo madoda ebemncethezile uDaniyeli, bawajulela emhadini weengonyama, wona nabantwana bawo, nabafazi bawo; zaza, bengekafiki nokufika emzantsini womhadi, iingonyama zabagonyamela, zawacola onke amathambo abo.
25 Waza uDariyo ukumkani wabhalela kuzo zonke iintlanga, nezizwe, neelwimi, ebezihleli ehlabathini lonke, wathi:Uxolo lwenu malube lukhulu!
26 Ndiwisa umthetho wokuba bathi, ezindaweni zonke zegunya lobukumkani bam, badidizele bothuke abantu phambi koThixo kaDaniyeli. Ngokuba unguThixo ophilileyo, emi ngonaphakade; ubukumkani bakhe abonakaliswa, negunya lakhe liya kuda liye ekupheleni;
27 esindisa, ehlangula, esenza imiqondiso nezimanga emazulwini nasehlabathini; ngokuba emsindisile uDaniyeli emandleni eengonyama.
28 Lo Daniyeli waba nempumelelo ebukumkanini bukaDariyo, nasebukumkanini bukaKoreshi umPersi.
