دَانِيآل 8

١ 1 فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّالِثَةِ مِنْ مُلْكِ بَيْلْشَاصَّرَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، ظَهَرَتْ لِي أَنَا دَانِيآلَ رُؤْيَا بَعْدَ ٱلَّتِي ظَهَرَتْ لِي فِي ٱلِٱبْتِدَاءِ.

In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar, a vision appeared to me, to me, Daniel, after that which appeared to me at the first.

٢ 2 فَرَأَيْتُ فِي ٱلرُّؤْيَا، وَكَانَ فِي رُؤْيَايَ وَأَنا فِي شُوشَانَ ٱلْقَصْرِ ٱلَّذِي فِي وِلَايَةِ عِيلَامَ، وَرَأَيْتُ فِي الرُؤيَا وَأَنَا عِنْدَ نَهْرِ أُولَايَ.

And I saw in a vision, and when I saw, I was in Shushan, in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and was by the river Ulai.

٣ 3 فَرَفَعْتُ عَيْنَيَّ وَرَأَيْتُ وَإِذَا بِكَبْشٍ وَاقِفٍ عِنْدَ ٱلنَّهْرِ وَلَهُ قَرْنَانِ وَٱلقَرْنَانِ عَالِيَانِ، وَٱلْوَاحِدُ أَعْلَى مِنَ ٱلْآخَرِ، وَٱلْأَعْلَى طَالِعٌ أَخِيرًا.

And I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, there stood before the river a ram, which had two horns; and the two horns were high, and one was higher than the other; and the higher came up last.

٤ 4 رَأَيْتُ ٱلْكَبْشَ يَنْطَحُ غَرْبًا وَشِمَالًا وَجَنُوبًا فَلَمْ يَقِفْ حَيَوَانٌ قُدَّامَهُ وَلَا مُنْقِذٌ مِنْ يَدِهِ، وَفَعَلَ كَمَرْضَاتِهِ وَعَظُمَ.

I saw the ram pushing westward and northward and southward, and no beast could stand before him, and none could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will and became great.

٥ 5 وَبَيْنَمَا كُنْتُ مُتَأَمِّلًا إِذَا بِتَيْسٍ مِنَ ٱلْمَعْزِ جَاءَ مِنَ ٱلْمَغْرِبِ عَلَى وَجْهِ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَمْ يَمَسَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَلِلتَّيْسِ قَرْنٌ مُعْتَبَرٌ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ.

And I gave heed, and behold, a he-goat came from the west, over the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground; and the goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes.

٦ 6 وَجَاءَ إِلَى ٱلْكَبْشِ صَاحِبِ ٱلْقَرْنَيْنِ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْتُهُ وَاقِفًا عِنْدَ ٱلنَّهْرِ وَرَكَضَ إِلَيْهِ بِشِدَّةِ قُوَّتِهِ.

And he came to the ram which had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran against him in the fury of his power.

٧ 7 وَرَأَيْتُهُ قَدْ وَصَلَ إِلَى جَانِبِ ٱلْكَبْشِ، فَٱسْتَشَاطَ عَلَيْهِ وَضَرَبَ ٱلْكَبْشَ وَكَسَرَ قَرْنَيْهِ، فَلَمْ تَكُنْ لِلْكَبْشِ قُوَّةٌ عَلَى ٱلْوُقُوفِ أَمَامَهُ، وَطَرَحَهُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَدَاسَهُ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لِلْكَبْشِ مُنْقِذٌ مِنْ يَدِهِ.

And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged against him, and smote the ram, and broke in pieces his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; and he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him; and none could deliver the ram out of his hand.

٨ 8 فتَعَظَّمَ تَيْسُ ٱلمَعْزِ جِدًّا. وَلَمَّا ٱعْتَزَّ ٱنْكَسَرَ ٱلْقَرْنُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ، وَطَلَعَ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ أَرْبَعَةُ قُرُونٍ مُعْتَبَرَةٍ نَحْوَ رِيَاحِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِ.

And the he-goat became exceedingly great; but when he became strong the great horn was broken, and instead of it grew up four conspicuous ones toward the four winds of heaven.

٩ 9 وَمِنْ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهَا خَرَجَ قَرْنٌ صَغِيرٌ، وَعَظُمَ جِدًّا نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ وَنَحْوَ ٱلشَّرْقِ وَنَحْوَ فَخْرِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي.

And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which became exceedingly great toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beautiful land.

١٠ 10 وَتَعَظَّمَ حَتَّى إِلَى جُنْدِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، وَطَرَحَ بَعْضًا مِنَ ٱلْجُنْدِ وَٱلنُّجُومِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَدَاسَهُمْ.

And it exalted itself even to the host of heaven, and some of the host and of the stars it cast down to the ground, and stamped upon them.

١١ 11 وَحَتَّى إِلَى رَئِيسِ ٱلْجُنْدِ تَعَظَّمَ، وَبِهِ أُبْطِلَتِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةُ ٱلدَّائِمَةُ، وَهُدِمَ مَسْكَنُ مَقْدِسِهِ.

Yea, he magnified himself even to the Prince of the host, and the daily sacrifice did he take away from him, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

١٢ 12 وَجُعِلَ جُنْدٌ عَلَى ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ ٱلدَّائِمَةِ بِٱلْمَعْصِيَةِ، فَطَرَحَ ٱلْحَقَّ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَفَعَلَ وَنَجَحَ.

And a host was placed over the daily sacrifice with impiety, and it cast down truth to the ground, and it accomplished its purpose and prospered.

١٣ 13 فَسَمِعْتُ قُدُّوسًا وَاحِدًا يَتَكَلَّمُ. فَقَالَ قُدُّوسٌ وَاحِدٌ لِفُلَانٍ ٱلْمُتَكَلِّمِ: «إِلَى مَتَى ٱلرُّؤْيَا مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ ٱلدَّائِمَةِ وَمَعْصِيَةِ ٱلْخَرَابِ، لِبَذْلِ ٱلْقُدْسِ وَٱلْجُنْدِ مَدُوسَيْنِ؟»

And I heard a holy one speak; and another holy one said to the one that had spoken, To how long a time extendeth the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the impiety of the destroyer, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?

١٤ 14 فَقَالَ لِي: «إِلَى أَلْفَيْنِ وَثَلَاثِ مِئَةِ صَبَاحٍ وَمَسَاءٍ، فَيَتَبَرَّأُ ٱلْقُدْسُ».

And he said to me, To two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

١٥ 15 وَكَانَ لَمَّا رَأَيْتُ أَنَا دَانِيآلَ ٱلرُّؤْيَا وَطَلَبْتُ ٱلْمَعْنَى، إِذَا بِشِبْهِ إِنْسَانٍ وَاقِفٍ قُبَالَتِي.

And it came to pass, that when I Daniel saw the vision, I sought for the meaning; and behold, there stood one before me having the appearance of a man.

١٦ 16 وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ إِنْسَانٍ بَيْنَ أُولَايَ، فَنَادَى وَقَالَ: «يَا جِبْرَائِيلُ، فَهِّمْ هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلَ ٱلرُّؤْيَا».

And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, which called and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.

١٧ 17 فَجَاءَ إِلَى حَيْثُ وَقَفْتُ، وَلَمَّا جَاءَ خِفْتُ وَخَرَرْتُ عَلَى وَجْهِي. فَقَالَ لِي: «ٱفْهَمْ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ. إِنَّ ٱلرُّؤْيَا لِوَقْتِ ٱلْمُنْتَهَى».

And he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face, and he said to me, Understand, O son of man! for this vision relateth to the time of the end.

١٨ 18 وَإِذْ كَانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ مَعِي كُنْتُ مُسَبَّخًا عَلَى وَجْهِي إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَلَمَسَنِي وَأَوْقَفَنِي عَلَى مَقَامِي.

But when he spake to me, I sank senseless upon my face to the ground; but he touched me, and lifted me up where I had stood.

١٩ 19 وَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا أُعَرِّفُكَ مَا يَكُونُ فِي آخِرِ ٱلسُّخَطِ. لِأَنَّ لِمِيعَادِ ٱلِٱنْتِهَاءَ.

And he said, Behold, I make known to thee what shall be in the latter time of the indignation; for [[the vision relateth]] to the time of the end.

٢٠ 20 أَمَّا ٱلْكَبْشُ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْتَهُ ذَا ٱلْقَرْنَيْنِ فَهُوَ مُلُوكُ مَادِي وَفَارِسَ.

The ram which thou sawest, having two horns, denoteth the kings of Media and Persia.

٢١ 21 وَٱلتَّيْسُ ٱلْعَافِي مَلِكُ ٱلْيُونَانِ، وَٱلْقَرْنُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ ٱلَّذِي بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ هُوَ ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْأَوَّلُ.

And the rough goat is the king of Greece; and the great horn between his eyes is the first king.

٢٢ 22 وَإِذِ ٱنْكَسَرَ وَقَامَ أَرْبَعَةٌ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ، فَسَتَقُومُ أَرْبَعُ مَمَالِكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُمَّةِ، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ فِي قُوَّتِهِ.

And as that was broken, and four arose in its place, four kingdoms shall arise out of the nation, but not with his power.

٢٣ 23 وَفِي آخِرِ مَمْلَكَتِهِمْ عِنْدَ تَمَامِ ٱلْمَعَاصِي يَقُومُ مَلِكٌ جَافِي ٱلْوَجْهِ وَفَاهِمُ ٱلْحِيَلِ.

And toward the end of their reign, when the transgressors have filled up the measure of their iniquities, a king shall arise of a fierce countenance, and cunning in artifices.

٢٤ 24 وَتَعْظُمُ قُوَّتُهُ، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ بِقُوَّتِهِ. يُهْلِكُ عَجَبًا وَيَنْجَحُ وَيَفْعَلُ وَيُبِيدُ ٱلْعُظَمَاءَ وَشَعْبَ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ.

And his power shall become mighty, but not by his own strength; and wonderfully will he destroy, and prosper, and accomplish his purposes, and he will destroy many, even the people of the holy ones.

٢٥ 25 وَبِحَذَاقَتِهِ يَنْجَحُ أَيْضًا ٱلْمَكْرُ فِي يَدِهِ، وَيَتَعَظَّمُ بِقَلْبِهِ. وَفِي ٱلِٱطْمِئْنَانِ يُهْلِكُ كَثِيرِينَ، وَيَقُومُ عَلَى رَئِيسِ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ، وَبِلَا يَدٍ يَنْكَسِرُ.

And through his cunning will he cause fraud to prosper in his hand, and he will magnify himself in his heart, and he will destroy many in the midst of security, and against the Prince of princes will he stand up; but he shall be broken without hand.

٢٦ 26 فَرُؤْيَا ٱلْمَسَاءِ وَٱلصَّبَاحِ ٱلَّتِي قِيلَتْ هِيَ حَقٌّ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَٱكْتُمِ ٱلرُّؤْيَا لِأَنَّهَا إِلَى أَيَّامٍ كَثِيرَةٍ».

And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told thee, is true; but do thou seal up the vision, for it relates to many days.

٢٧ 27 وَأَنَا دَانِيآلَ ضَعُفْتُ وَنَحَلْتُ أَيَّامًا، ثُمَّ قُمْتُ وَبَاشَرْتُ أَعْمَالَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَكُنْتُ مُتَحَيِّرًا مِنَ ٱلرُّؤْيَا وَلَا فَاهِمَ.

And I Daniel fainted, and was sick some days; then I rose up and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but no one explained it.
