Daniel 5:23 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015

Badala yake, umejiinua dhidi ya Bwana wa mbingu. Uliletewa vikombe vya Hekalu lake, nawe na wakuu wako, wake zako na masuria wako mlivitumia kwa kunywea mvinyo. Ukaisifu miungu ya fedha na dhahabu, ya shaba, chuma, miti na mawe, miungu ambayo haiwezi kuona, au kusikia wala kufahamu. Lakini hukumheshimu Mungu ambaye anaushikilia uhai wako na njia zako zote mkononi mwake.

Daniel 5:23 in English

Daniel 5:23 · Berean Standard Bible

Instead, you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven. The vessels from His house were brought to you, and as you drank wine from them with your nobles, wives, and concubines, you praised your gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or understand. But you have failed to glorify the God who holds in His hand your very breath and all your ways.

Context

21Akafukuzwa mbali na wanadamu na kupewa akili ya mnyama, akaishi pamoja na punda-mwitu, akala majani kama ngʼombe, nao mwili wake ukaloweshwa kwa umande wa mbingu, mpaka alipotambua kwamba Mungu Aliye Juu Sana ndiye mtawala juu ya falme za wanadamu na kwamba humtawaza juu yao yeyote amtakaye. 22“Lakini wewe mwanawe, ee Belshaza, hukujinyenyekeza, ingawa ulifahamu haya yote. 23Badala yake, umejiinua dhidi ya Bwana wa mbingu. Uliletewa vikombe vya Hekalu lake, nawe na wakuu wako, wake zako na masuria wako mlivitumia kwa kunywea mvinyo. Ukaisifu miungu ya fedha na dhahabu, ya shaba, chuma, miti na mawe, miungu ambayo haiwezi kuona, au kusikia wala kufahamu. Lakini hukumheshimu Mungu ambaye anaushikilia uhai wako na njia zako zote mkononi mwake. 24Kwa hiyo ameutuma mkono ule ulioandika maneno. 25“Haya ndiyo maneno yaliyoandikwa: mene, mene, tekeli na peresi
