10 Ke kaloku uDaniyeli, ákwazi 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, Àkusibhalanga 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 singàbi 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, angákusindisa.
