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.
17. Kwaziswa ilitye, labekwa phezu komlomo womhadi; ukumkani walitywina ngomsesane wakhe wokutywina, nangomsesane wokutywina wezikhulu zakhe, ukuze kungàguqulwa nto mayela noDaniyeli.
18. Waza ukumkani waya ebhotweni lakhe, wabugqiba ubusuku ezila ukudla; àkwaziswa 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, úbe 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 kufumaneké ukuba ndimsulwa; naphambi kwakho, kumkani, andonanga.
23. Waza ukumkani wavuya kunene, wathi uDaniyeli makanyuswe emhadini. Wenyuswa ke uDaniyeli. Akwafumaneka nasinye esinzakalo kuye; ngokuba ebekholwe kuThixo wakhe.
