< دانيال 7 >
فِي السَّنَةِ الأُولَى لِحُكْمِ بَيلْشَاصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ رَأَى دَانِيَالُ حُلْماً وَرُؤىً، مَرَّتْ بِرَأْسِهِ وَهُوَ مُضْطَجِعٌ فِي فِرَاشِهِ، فَدَوَّنَ الْحُلْمَ وَحَدَّثَ بِخُلاصَةِ الرُّؤْيَا. | ١ 1 |
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel had a dream and visions of his head while on his bed. Then he wrote the dream and told the sum of the matters.
قَالَ دَانِيَالُ: شَاهَدْتُ فِي رُؤْيَايَ لَيْلاً، وَإذَا بِأَرْبَعِ رِيَاحِ السَّمَاءِ قَدْ هَجَمَتْ عَلَى الْبَحْرِ الْكَبِيرِ، | ٢ 2 |
Daniel spoke and said, “I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the sky broke out on the great sea.
وَمَا لَبِثَ أَنْ صَعِدَ مِنَ الْبَحْرِ أَرْبعَةُ حَيَوَانَاتٍ عَظِيمَةٍ يَخْتَلِفُ بَعْضُهَا عَنْ بَعْضٍ. | ٣ 3 |
Four great animals came up from the sea, different from one another.
فَكَانَ الأَوَّلُ كَالأَسَدِ بِجَنَاحَيْنِ كَجَنَاحَيِ النَّسْرِ. وَبَقِيتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ حَتَّى اقْتُلِعَ جَنَاحَاهُ، وَانْتَصَبَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ وَاقِفاً عَلَى رِجْلَيْنِ كَإِنْسَانٍ، وَأُعْطِيَ عَقْلَ إِنْسَانٍ. | ٤ 4 |
“The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings. I watched until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on two feet as a man. A man’s heart was given to it.
وَرَأَيْتُ حَيَوَاناً آخَرَ شَبِيهاً بِالدُّبِّ، قَائِماً عَلَى جَنْبٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَفِي فَمِهِ بَيْنَ أَسْنَانِهِ ثَلاثُ أَضْلُعٍ وَقِيلَ لَهُ: انْهَضْ وَكُلْ لَحْماً كَثِيراً. | ٥ 5 |
“Behold, there was another animal, a second, like a bear. It was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth. They said this to it: ‘Arise! Devour much flesh!’
ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ بَعْدَ هَذَا حَيَوَاناً آخَرَ مِثْلَ النَّمِرِ، لَهُ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ أَرْبَعَةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ كَأَجْنِحَةِ الطَّائِرِ، وَكَانَ لِهَذَا الْحَيَوَانِ أَرْبَعَةُ رُؤُوسٍ، وَفُوِّضَتْ إِلَيْهِ سُلْطَاتٌ. | ٦ 6 |
“After this I saw, and behold, another, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird. The animal also had four heads; and dominion was given to it.
وَشَهِدْتُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فِي رُؤَى اللَّيْلِ وَإذَا بِحَيَوَانٍ رَابِعٍ هَائِلٍ وَقَوِيٍّ وَشَدِيدٍ جِدّاً، ذِي أَسْنَانٍ ضَخْمَةٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ، افْتَرَسَ وَسَحَقَ وَدَاسَ مَا تَبَقَّى بِرِجْلَيْهِ. وَكَانَ يَخْتَلِفُ عَنْ سَائِرِ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ الَّتِي قَبْلَهُ وَلَهُ عَشَرَةُ قُرُونٍ. | ٧ 7 |
“After this I saw in the night visions, and, behold, there was a fourth animal, awesome, powerful, and exceedingly strong. It had great iron teeth. It devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet. It was different from all the animals that were before it. It had ten horns.
وَفِيمَا كُنْتُ أَتَأَمَّلُ الْقُرُونَ إِذَا بِقَرْنٍ آخَرَ صَغِيرٍ نَبَتَ بَيْنَهَا، وَاقْتُلِعَتْ ثَلاثَةُ قُرُونٍ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ، وَكَانَ فِي هَذَا الْقَرْنِ عُيُونٌ كَعُيُونِ الإِنْسَانِ وَفَمٌ يَنْطِقُ بِعَظَائِمَ. | ٨ 8 |
“I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots; and behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking arrogantly.
وَفِيمَا كُنْتُ أَنْظُرُ، نُصِبَتْ عُرُوشٌ وَاعْتَلَى الأَزَلِيُّ كُرْسِيَّهُ وَكَانَتْ ثِيَابُهُ بَيْضَاءَ كَالثَّلْجِ، وَشَعْرُ رَأْسِهِ كَالصُّوفِ النَّقِيِّ، وَعَرْشُهُ لَهِيباً مُتَوَهِّجاً وَعَجَلاتُهُ نَاراً مُتَّقِدَةً. | ٩ 9 |
“I watched until thrones were placed, and one who was Ancient of Days sat. His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool. His throne was fiery flames, and its wheels burning fire.
وَمِنْ أَمَامِهِ يَتَدَفَّقُ وَيَجْرِي نَهْرٌ مِنْ نَارٍ، وَتَخْدُمُهُ أُلُوفُ أُلُوفِ الْمَلائِكَةِ، وَيَمْثُلُ فِي حَضْرَتِهِ عَشَرَاتُ الأُلُوفِ. فَانْعَقَدَ مَجْلِسُ الْقَضَاءِ وَفُتِحَتِ الأَسْفَارُ. | ١٠ 10 |
A fiery stream issued and came out from before him. Thousands of thousands ministered to him. Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The judgment was set. The books were opened.
وَبَقَيتُ أُرَاقِبُ الْقَرْنَ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ مَا تَفَوَّهَ بِهِ مِنْ عَظَائِمَ، حَتَّى قُتِلَ الْحَيَوَانُ وَتَلِفَ جِسْمُهُ وَطُرِحَ وَقُوداً لِلنَّارِ. | ١١ 11 |
“I watched at that time because of the voice of the arrogant words which the horn spoke. I watched even until the animal was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given to be burned with fire.
أَمَّا سَائِرُ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ فَقَدْ جُرِّدَتْ مِنْ سُلْطَانِهَا، وَلَكِنَّهَا وُهِبَتِ الْبَقَاءَ عَلَى قَيْدِ الْحَيَاةِ لِزَمَنٍ مَا. | ١٢ 12 |
As for the rest of the animals, their dominion was taken away; yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
وَشَاهَدْتُ أَيْضاً فِي رُؤَى اللَّيْلِ وَإذَا بِمِثْلِ ابْنِ الإِنْسَانِ مُقْبِلاً عَلَى سَحَابٍ حَتَّى بَلَغَ الأَزَلِيَّ فَقَرَّبُوهُ مِنْهُ. | ١٣ 13 |
“I saw in the night visions, and behold, there came with the clouds of the sky one like a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of Days, and they brought him near before him.
فَأَنْعَمَ عَلَيْهِ بِسُلْطَانٍ وَمَجْدٍ وَمَلَكُوتٍ لِتَتَعَبَّدَ لَهُ كُلُّ الشُّعُوبِ وَالأُمَمِ مِنْ كُلِّ لِسَانٍ. سُلْطَانُهُ سُلْطَانٌ أَبَدِيٌّ لَا يَفْنَى، وَمُلْكُهُ لَا يَنْقَرِضُ. | ١٤ 14 |
Dominion was given him, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which will not pass away, and his kingdom one that will not be destroyed.
أَمَّا أَنَا دَانِيَالَ فَقَدْ ظَهَرَ الْحُزْنُ عَلَى رُوحِي فِي دَاخِلِي وَرَوَّعَتْنِي رُؤَى رَأْسِي. | ١٥ 15 |
“As for me, Daniel, my spirit was grieved within my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.
فَاقْتَرَبْتُ مِنْ أَحَدِ الْوَاقِفِينَ أَسْتَفْسِرُ مِنْهُ حَقِيقَةَ الأَمْرِ، فَأَطْلَعَنِي عَلَى مَعْنَى الرُّؤْيَا قَائِلاً: | ١٦ 16 |
I came near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the truth concerning all this. “So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.
«هَذِهِ الْحَيَوَانَاتُ الأَرْبَعَةُ الْعَظِيمَةُ هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ مُلُوكٍ يَظْهَرُونَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ. | ١٧ 17 |
‘These great animals, which are four, are four kings, who will arise out of the earth.
غَيْرَ أَنَّ قِدِّيسِي الْعَلِيِّ يَسْتَوْلُونَ عَلَى الْمَمْلَكَةِ وَيَتَمَلَّكُونَهَا إِلَى أَبَدِ الآبِدِينَ. | ١٨ 18 |
But the saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever.’
حِينَئِذٍ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَطَّلِعَ عَلَى حَقِيقَةِ الْحَيَوَانِ الرَّابِعِ الَّذِي كَانَ يَخْتَلِفُ عَنْ سَائِرِ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ، إِذْ كَانَ هَائِلاً جِدّاً ذَا أَسْنَانٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَمَخَالِبَ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ، وَقَدِ افْتَرَسَ وَسَحَقَ وَدَاسَ مَا تَبَقَّى بِرِجْلَيْهِ. | ١٩ 19 |
“Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth animal, which was different from all of them, exceedingly terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of bronze; which devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet;
وَعَنِ الْقُرُونِ الْعَشَرَةِ النَّامِيَةِ فِي رَأْسِهِ، وَعَنِ الْقَرْنِ الآخَرِ الصَّغِيرِ الَّذِي نَبَتَ، فَاقْتُلِعَتْ أَمَامَهُ ثَلاثَةُ قُرُونٍ. هَذَا الْقَرْنُ ذُو الْعُيُونِ النَّاطِقُ بِالْعَظَائِمِ وَمَنْظَرُهُ أَشَدُّ هَوْلاً مِنْ رِفَاقِهِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
and concerning the ten horns that were on its head and the other horn which came up, and before which three fell, even that horn that had eyes and a mouth that spoke arrogantly, whose look was more stout than its fellows.
وَقَدْ شَهِدْتُ هَذَا الْقَرْنَ يُحَارِبُ الْقِدِّيسِينَ وَيَغْلِبُهُمْ. | ٢١ 21 |
I saw, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them,
إِلَى أَنْ جَاءَ الأَزَلِيُّ وَانْعَقَدَ مَجْلِسُ الْقَضَاءِ الَّذِي فِيهِ تَبَرَّأَتْ سَاحَةُ قِدِّيسِي الْعَلِيِّ، وَأَزِفَ الْوَقْتُ الَّذِي فِيهِ امْتَلَكُوا الْمَمْلَكَةَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
فَأَجَابَ: إِنَّ الْحَيَوَانَ الرَّابِعَ هُوَ رَمْزٌ لِلْمَمْلَكَةِ الرَّابِعَةِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَهِيَ تَخْتَلِفُ عَنْ سَائِرِ الْمَمَالِكِ لأَنَّهَا تَسْتَوْلِي عَلَى كُلِّ الأَرْضِ وَتُخْضِعُهَا وَتَسْحَقُهَا. | ٢٣ 23 |
“So he said, ‘The fourth animal will be a fourth kingdom on earth, which will be different from all the kingdoms, and will devour the whole earth, and will tread it down and break it in pieces.
أَمَّا الْقُرُونُ الْعَشَرَةُ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْمَمْلَكَةِ فَهِيَ عَشَرَةُ مُلُوكٍ يَتَوَلَّوْنَهَا، ثُمَّ يَقُومُ بَعْدَهُمْ مَلِكٌ آخَرُ يَخْتَلِفُ عَنِ الْمُلُوكِ السَّالِفِينَ، وَيُخْضِعُ ثَلاثَةَ مُلُوكٍ، | ٢٤ 24 |
As for the ten horns, ten kings will arise out of this kingdom. Another will arise after them; and he will be different from the former, and he will put down three kings.
وَيُعَيِّرُ الْعَلِيَّ وَيُنَكِّلُ بِقِدِّيسِيهِ، وَيُحَاوِلُ أَنْ يُغَيِّرَ الأَوْقَاتَ وَالْقَوَانِينَ، فَيُذِلُّ الْقِدِّيسيِنَ ثَلاثَ سَنَوَاتٍ وَنِصْفَ السَّنَةِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
He will speak words against the Most High, and will wear out the saints of the Most High. He will plan to change the times and the law; and they will be given into his hand until a time and times and half a time.
وَلَكِنْ يَنْعَقِدُ مَجْلِسُ الْقَضَاءِ، فَيُجَرَّدُ مِنْ سُلْطَانِهِ فَيُدَمَّرُ وَيَفْنَى إِلَى الْمُنْتَهَى. | ٢٦ 26 |
“‘But the judgment will be set, and they will take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it to the end.
وَتُوهَبُ الْمَمْلَكَةُ وَالسُّلْطَانُ وَعَظَمَةُ الْمَمَالِكِ الْقَائِمَةِ تَحْتَ كُلِّ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى شَعْبِ قِدِّيسِي الْعَلِيِّ، فَيَكُونُ مَلَكُوتُ الْعَلِيِّ مَلَكُوتاً أَبَدِيًّا، وَتَعْبُدُهُ جَمِيعُ السَّلاطِينِ وَيُطِيعُونَهُ. | ٢٧ 27 |
The kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole sky, will be given to the people of the saints of the Most High. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions will serve and obey him.’
إِلَى هُنَا خِتَامُ الرُّؤْيَا. أَمَّا أَنَا دَانِيَالَ فَقَدْ رَوَّعَتْنِي أَفْكَارِي كَثِيراً وَتَغَيَّرَتْ هَيْئَتِي، وَلَكِنِّي كَتَمْتُ الأَمْرَ فِي قَلْبِي». | ٢٨ 28 |
“Here is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts troubled me greatly, and my face was changed in me; but I kept the matter in my heart.”
