Kniha proroka Daniela

1 (CPDV) Belshazzar, the king, made a great feast for a thousand of his nobles, and each one of them drank according to his age.
1 (ROH) Kráľ Balsazár učinil svojim tisícim veľmožom veľkú hostinu a pred tými tisícimi pil víno.

2 (CPDV) And so, when they were drunk, he instructed that the vessels of gold and silver should be brought, which Nebuchadnezzar, his father, had carried away from the temple, which was in Jerusalem, so that the king, and his nobles, and his wives, and the concubines, might drink from them.
2 (ROH) Balsazár, keď mu chutnalo víno, rozkázal doniesť nádoby, zlaté a strieborné, ktoré Nabuchodonozor, jeho otec, vyniesol z chrámu, ktorý bol v Jeruzaleme, aby z nich pili kráľ, jeho veľmoži, jeho ženy a jeho ženiny.

3 (CPDV) Then the gold and silver vessels were presented, which he had carried away from the temple and which had been in Jerusalem, and the king, and his nobles, wives, and concubines, drank from them.
3 (ROH) Vtedy doniesli zlaté nádoby, ktoré boli odniesli z chrámu Božieho domu, ktorý bol v Jeruzaleme, a pili z nich kráľ, jeho veľmoži, jeho ženy a jeho ženiny.

4 (CPDV) They drank wine, and they praised their gods of gold, and silver, brass, iron, and wood and stone.
4 (ROH) Pili víno a chválili bohov, zlatých, strieborných, medených, železných, drevených a kamenných.

5 (CPDV) In the same hour, there appeared fingers, as of the hand of a man, writing on the surface of the wall, opposite the candlestick, in the king’s palace. And the king observed the part of the hand that wrote.
5 (ROH) Ale v tú istú hodinu vyšly prsty ruky človeka a písaly naproti svietniku na vápennú obmietku steny paláca kráľovho, a kráľ videl čiastku ruky, ktorá písala.

6 (CPDV) Then the king’s countenance was changed, and his thoughts disturbed him, and he lost his self-control, and his knees knocked against one other.
6 (ROH) Vtedy sa zmenila jasnosť kráľova, a jeho myšlienky ho desily, a kĺby jeho bedier sa rozviazaly, a triasol sa tak, že sa mu kolená tĺkly jedno o druhé.

7 (CPDV) And the king cried out loudly for them to bring in the astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers. And the king proclaimed to the wise men of Babylon, saying, “Whoever will read this writing and make known to me its interpretation will be clothed with purple, and will have a golden chain on his neck, and will be third in my kingdom.”
7 (ROH) A kráľ kričal celou silou, aby doviedli hore hvezdárov, Chaldejov a veštcov. A kráľ odpovedal a riekol mudrcom Babylona: Ktokoľvek prečíta toto písmo a povie mi jeho výklad, bude oblečený do purpuru, a dá sa mu zlatý náhrdelník na hrdlo, a bude vládnuť tretí v kráľovstve.

8 (CPDV) Then, in came all the wise men of the king, but they could neither read the writing, nor reveal the interpretation to the king.
8 (ROH) Vtedy prišli hore všetci mudrci kráľovi, ale nemohli prečítať písmo ani oznámiť kráľovi jeho výklad.

9 (CPDV) Therefore, king Belshazzar was quite confused, and his face was altered, and even his nobles were disturbed.
9 (ROH) Vtedy sa veľmi desil kráľ Balsazár, a jeho jasnosť sa zmenila na ňom, a jeho veľmoži boli bezradní.

10 (CPDV) But the queen, because of what had happened to the king and his nobles, entered the banquet house. And she spoke out, saying, “O king, live forever. Do not let your thoughts confuse you, neither should your face be altered.
10 (ROH) Potom pre slová kráľove a jeho veľmožov vyšla kráľovná hore do domu, v ktorom sa hodovalo a pilo, a kráľovná prehovorila a riekla: Kráľu, ži na veky! Nech ťa nedesia tvoje myšlienky, a nech sa nemení tvoja jasnosť!

11 (CPDV) There is a man in your kingdom, who has the spirit of the holy gods within himself, and in the days of your father, knowledge and wisdom were found in him. For king Nebuchadnezzar, your father, appointed him leader of the astrologers, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers, even your father, I say to you, O king.
11 (ROH) Je v tvojom kráľovstve muž, v ktorom je duch svätých bohov, a za dní tvojho otca bolo v ňom najdené svetlo a rozum a múdrosť ako múdrosť bohov a kráľ Nabuchodonozor, tvoj otec ho bol ustanovil za knieža učencov, hvezdárov, Chaldejov a veštcov, tvoj otec, kráľu,

12 (CPDV) For a greater spirit, and foresight, and understanding, and interpretation of dreams, and the revealing of secrets, and the solution to difficulties were found in him, that is, in Daniel, to whom the king gave the name Belteshazzar. Now, therefore, let Daniel be summoned, and he will explain the interpretation.”
12 (ROH) a preto, že bol najdený v ňom veľký duch, vedomosť a rozum, vykladanie snov a povedanie záhad a rozviazanie tvrdých uzlov, v Danielovi, ktorému dal kráľ meno Baltazár, tedy nech je teraz Daniel zavolaný a povie výklad.

13 (CPDV) Then Daniel was brought in before the king. And the king spoke to him, saying, “Are you Daniel, of the sons of the captivity of Judah, whom my father the king led out of Judea?
13 (ROH) Vtedy doviedli Daniela hore pred kráľa. A kráľ odpovedal a riekol Danielovi: Či si to ty ten Daniel, ktorý je zo synov judského zajatia, ktoré doviedol kráľ, môj otec, z Judska?

14 (CPDV) I have heard of you, that you have the 502 spirit of the gods, and that greater knowledge, as well as understanding and wisdom, have been found in you.
14 (ROH) Počul som o tebe, že je duch bohov v tebe, a že sa našlo v tebe svetlo a rozum a veľká múdrosť.

15 (CPDV) And now the wise astrologers have entered into my presence, so as to read this writing and to reveal to me its interpretation. And they were not able to tell me the meaning of this writing.
15 (ROH) Hľa, teraz boli sem hore predo mňa dovedení mudrci a hvezdári, aby prečítali toto písmo a oznámili mi jeho výklad, ale nemôžu povedať výklad slova.

16 (CPDV) Furthermore, I have heard about you that you can interpret obscure things and solve difficulties. So then, if you succeed in reading the writing, and in revealing its interpretation, you will be clothed with purple, and you will have a chain of gold around your neck, and you will be the third leader in my kingdom.”
16 (ROH) Lež ja som počul o tebe, že ty môžeš vyložiť výklady a rozviazať uzly tajomstiev. A tak teraz, ak budeš môcť prečítať písmo a oznámiť mi jeho výklad, budeš oblečený do purpuru, dá sa ti zlatý náhrdelník na tvoje hrdlo, a budeš vládnuť tretí v kráľovstve.

17 (CPDV) To this Daniel responded by saying directly to the king, “Your rewards should be for yourself, and the gifts of your house you may give to another, but I will read to you the writing, O king, and I will reveal to you its interpretation.
17 (ROH) Vtedy odpovedal Daniel a riekol pred kráľom: Tvoje dary nech sú len tebe, a svoje odmeny daj inému; ale písmo prečítam kráľovi a výklad mu oznámim.

18 (CPDV) O king, the Most High God gave to Nebuchadnezzar, your father, a kingdom and greatness, glory and honor.
18 (ROH) Ty, ó, kráľu počuj! Bôh Najvyšší dal Nabuchodonozorovi, tvojmu otcovi, kráľovstvo a veličenstvo, česť a slávu.

19 (CPDV) And because of the greatness that he gave to him, all peoples, tribes, and languages trembled and were afraid of him. Whomever he wished, he put to death; and whomever he wished, he destroyed; and whomever he wished, he exalted; and whomever he wished, he lowered.
19 (ROH) A pre veličenstvo, ktoré mu dal, triasly sa a bály sa pred ním všetky národy, ľudia a jazyky; lebo koho chcel, toho zabil, a koho chcel, toho zachoval živého; koho chcel, toho povýšil, a koho chcel toho ponížil.

20 (CPDV) But when his heart was lifted up and his spirit was hardened in arrogance, he was deposed from the throne of his kingdom and his glory was taken away.
20 (ROH) A keď sa bolo povýšilo jeho srdce, a jeho duch sa zmocnil, aby robil pyšne, bol sosadený s trónu svojho kráľovstva, a odňali mu jeho česť,

21 (CPDV) And he was expelled from the sons of men, and so his heart was placed with the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys, and he ate hay like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he realized that the Most High holds power over the kingdom of men, and that whoever he wishes, he will set over it.
21 (ROH) a bol vyhnaný zpomedzi synov človeka, a jeho srdce sa stalo podobným srdcu zvierat, a mal svoje obydlie s divokými osly; bylinu mu dávali jesť ako volom, a jeho telo bolo máčané rosou z neba, až dokiaľ nepoznal, že Bôh Najvyšší panuje nad kráľovstvom človeka a koho chce toho ustanoví nad ním.

22 (CPDV) Likewise, you, his son Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all these things.
22 (ROH) A ty, jeho syn, Balsazáre, neponížil si svojho srdca, hocaj si toto všetko vedel.

23 (CPDV) But you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven. And the vessels of his house have been presented before you. And you, and your nobles, and your wives, and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. Likewise, you have praised the gods of silver, and gold, and brass, iron, and wood and stone, who neither see, nor hear, nor feel, yet you have not glorified the God who holds your breath and all your ways in his hand.
23 (ROH) Ale si sa pozdvihol proti Pánovi nebies, a doniesli nádoby jeho domu pred teba, a ty i tvoji veľmoži, tvoje ženy i tvoje ženiny ste pili z nich víno, a chválil si bohov strieborných a zlatých, medených a železných, drevených a kamenných, ktorí ani nevidia ani nečujú ani nevedia ničoho, a Boha, v ktorého ruke je tvoj dych, a ktorého sú i všetky tvoje cesty, si neoslavoval.

24 (CPDV) Therefore, he has sent the part of the hand which has written this, which has been inscribed.
24 (ROH) Vtedy bola od neho poslaná čiastka ruky, a bolo napísané toto písmo.

25 (CPDV) But this is the writing that has been decreed: MANE, THECEL, PHARES.
25 (ROH) A toto je písmo, ktoré je napísané: Mene, mene; tekel ufarsin.

26 (CPDV) And this is the interpretation of the words. MANE: God has numbered your kingdom and has finished it.
26 (ROH) A toto je výklad veci: Mene, sčítaný, (znamená, že) Bôh spočítal tvoje kráľovstvo a ukončil ho.

27 (CPDV) THECEL: you have been weighed on the scales and found lacking.
27 (ROH) Tekel, odvážený: Odvážený si na váhe, a si najdený nedostatočný.

28 (CPDV) PHARES: your kingdom has been divided and has been given to the Medes and the Persians.
28 (ROH) Peres, rozdelený: Rozdelené je tvoje kráľovstvo a je dané Médom a Peržanom.

29 (CPDV) Then, by the king’s command, Daniel was dressed with purple, and a chain of gold was placed around his neck, and it was proclaimed of him that he held power as the third in the kingdom.
29 (ROH) Vtedy rozkázal Balsazár, aby obliekli Daniela do purpuru, a dali zlatý náhrdelník na jeho hrdlo a rozhlasovali o ňom, že má byť tretím pánom v kráľovstve.

30 (CPDV) That same night, king Belshazzar the Chaldean was killed.
30 (ROH) V tú istú noc bol zabitý Balsazár, kráľ Chaldejov.

31 (CPDV) And Darius the Mede succeeded to the kingdom, at the age of sixty-two years.
31 (ROH) Méd Dárius dostal kráľovstvo, ktorý mal vtedy už šesťdesiatdva rokov.
