Belishazari Akoza Isoni Inzu ya Data

Belishazari anywera mu bikoresho byanyazwe mu nzu ya Data, maze ahimbaza imana z'ibyuma n'amabuye. Ukuboko kwandika ku rukuta rwateweho ingwa, maze amavi ye ahinda umushyitsi. Daniyeli avuga icyaha nyacyo — wari uzi ibya so, nyamara nta we wahaye icyubahiro. Iryo joro umwami arapfa.

Igice cya 5.

Umwami Belishazari ategurira abatware igihumbi ibirori bikomeye, anywa divayi imbere y'abo bantu igihumbi. Mu gihe Belishazari yanywaga divayi, ategeka ko bazana ibikoresho bya zahabu n'iby'ifeza se Nebukadinezari yari yaranyaze mu rusengero rw'i Yeruzalemu, kugira ngo umwami n'abatware be n'abagore be n'inshoreke ze babinywereho. Nuko bazana ibikoresho bya zahabu byari byaranyazwe mu rusengero, inzu ya Data i Yeruzalemu; umwami n'abatware be n'abagore be n'inshoreke ze barabinyweraho. Banywa divayi bahimbaza imana za zahabu n'iza feza n'iz'umuringa n'iz'icyuma n'iz'ibiti n'iz'amabuye.

Uwo mwanya intoki z'ukuboko kw'umuntu ziboneka, zandika ku rukuta rw'ingoro y'umwami rwateweho ingwa, imbere y'igitereko cy'amatara; maze umwami areba ukuboko kwandika. Mu maso h'umwami harahinduka, ibitekerezo bye biramuteza ubwoba, impyiga ze ziramuhaga, n'amavi ye ahinda umushyitsi.

Umwami ararangurura ijwi, ahamagaza abapfumu n'abashitsi n'abacunnyi, abwira abanyabwenge ba Babiloni ati: “Umuntu wese uzasoma iyi nyandiko akambwira icyo isobanura, azambikwa umwambaro w'umuhengeri, n'umukufi wa zahabu mu ijosi, kandi azategeka ari uwa gatatu mu bwami.” ^a

Nuko abanyabwenge b'umwami bose baraza, ariko nta n'umwe washoboye gusoma iyo nyandiko cyangwa kumubwira icyo isobanura. Bityo Umwami Belishazari arushaho guterwa ubwoba, mu maso he harushaho kuzimangana, n'abatware be baratangara.

Kubera amagambo y'umwami n'ay'abatware be, umwamikazi yinjira mu cyumba cy'ibirori, aravuga ati: “Mwami, uramebo iteka! Ntureke ibitekerezo byawe ngo bigutere ubwoba cyangwa mu maso hawe ngo hazimangane. Mu bwami bwawe hari umuntu ufite mwuka w'imana nyakwera. Mu minsi ya so yagaragaje ubwenge n'ubushishozi no gutahura nk'ubwenge bw'imana. Umwami Nebukadinezari so, so umwami wenyine, yamugize umukuru w'abapfumu n'abashitsi n'abanyabugenge n'abacunnyi, kuko muri uyu Daniyeli, umwami yise Belitishazari, harimo umwuka utangaje n'ubumenyi n'ubushishozi, no gusobanura inzozi no kubijijura ibisākuzo no gufungura imitego. None rero nimuhamagare Daniyeli, nawe azabisobanura.”

Daniyeli Asoma Imanza za Data

Nuko Daniyeli azanwa imbere y'umwami, maze umwami aramubaza ati: “Mbese ni wowe Daniyeli, umwe muri ba nyagahunga b'Abayuda data umwami yavanye mu Buyuda? Numvise ko mwuka w'imana uri muri wowe, ndetse ko muri wowe harimo urumuri n'ubushishozi n'ubwenge budasanzwe. Abanyabwenge n'abapfumu bazanywe imbere yanjye ngo basome iyi nyandiko bambwire icyo isobanura, ariko ntibabasha. Numvise ko ushobora gusobanura no gufungura imitego. Nusoma iyi nyandiko ukambwira icyo isobanura, uzambikwa umwambaro w'umuhengeri, n'umukufi wa zahabu mu ijosi, kandi uzategeka uri uwa gatatu mu bwami.”

Daniyeli asubiza umwami ati: “Impano zawe zigumane, kandi ibihembo byawe ubiheshe undi muntu. Icyakora, umwami nzamusomera iyo nyandiko kandi nzamubwira icyo isobanura. Wowe Mwami, Isumbabyose Data yahaye so Nebukadinezari ubwami n'ubukuru n'ikuzo n'icyubahiro. Kubera ubukuru yamuhaye, amahanga yose n'amoko n'indimi byahindaga umushyitsi bikamutinya. Yicaga uwo ashaka, agakiza uwo ashaka, akazamura uwo ashaka, akicisha bugufi uwo ashaka. Ariko umutima we umaze kwishyira hejuru, umwuka we unangira ukagira agasuzuguro, yavanywe ku ntebe ye ya cyami, akamburwa ikuzo rye. Yaciwe mu bantu, umutima we uhindurwa nk'uw'itungo; abana n'indogobe zo mu gasozi, agaburirwa ibyatsi nk'ikimasa, n'ikime cyo mu ijuru kikamutobya, kugeza ubwo yamenye ko Isumbabyose Data ategeka ubwami bw'abantu kandi akabushyiraho uwo ashatse.

Ariko wowe Belishazari mwene we, ntiwicishije bugufi umutima wawe, nubwo ibyo byose wari ubizi. Ahubwo wishyize hejuru urwanya Nyir'ijuru. Wazanishije imbere yawe ibikoresho byo mu nzu ye, maze wowe n'abatware bawe n'abagore bawe n'inshoreke zawe mubinywaho divayi. Wahimbaje imana za feza n'iza zahabu n'iz'umuringa n'iz'icyuma n'iz'ibiti n'iz'amabuye, imana zidashobora kubona cyangwa kumva cyangwa kumenya ikintu na kimwe. Ariko Uwo ufite ubugingo bwawe mu kuboko kwe, akaba na nyir'inzira zawe zose, ari we Data, ntiwamuhaye icyubahiro. Ni yo mpamvu yohereje ukuboko kwandika iyi nyandiko.

Dore iyi nyandiko yanditswe: MENE, MENE, TEKELI, PARASINI.

Dore icyo isobanura: MENE—Data yabaze iminsi y'ubwami bwawe arangiza ubwo bwami.

TEKELI—wapimiwe ku munzani usangwa udakwiye.

PERESI—ubwami bwawe bwagabanyijwemo, bugahabwa Abamedi n'Abaperesi.”

Nuko Belishazari atanga itegeko, maze bambika Daniyeli umwambaro w'umuhengeri, bamwambika umukufi wa zahabu mu ijosi, kandi batangaza ko ari we mutware wa gatatu mu bwami.

Icyo joro nyine Belishazari umwami w'Ababiloni arishwe. Nuko Dariyo w'Umumedi akira ubwami, afite nk'imyaka mirongo itandatu n'ibiri.
