Da:niele 11
1 Gode da Maigele amo na fidima: ne amola gaga: ma: ne e ilegei dagoi.
And I myself, in the first year of Darius the Mede, took my stand to support and defend him.
2 Na da waha dima olelemu liligi da dafawane.” A: igele da nama amane sia: i, “Hina bagade eno udiana da Besia soge amo ouligimu. Amo fa: no, hina bagade eno, amo ea muni amola liligi gagui hou da huluane musa: hina bagade dunu bagadewane baligibi ba: mu, amo da misunu. Ea gasa amola gagui hou da bagadewane heda: lebeba: le, e da Galigi fi ilima gegemusa: logemu.
So now let me reveal the truth to you. There are still three kings to come to power in Persia, and then a fourth who will be far richer than all the others. When he becomes strong through his wealth, he will rally the whole kingdom against Greece.
3 Amalalu, hina bagade gesa: i gala eno da manebe ba: mu. E da fi bagadedafa amo ouligimu amola e da hi hanaiga hawa: hamonanumu.
Then a mighty king will come to power. He will rule with great authority and do whatever he wants.
4 Be ea gasa da bagadewane heda: i ba: lalu, ea fi da afafane, fi biyadu agoane ba: mu. Eno hina bagade (musa: gasa bagade hina bagade ea mano hame) ilia da ea sogebi lale, ouligimu. Be ea gasa ouligisu hou defele, ilia da hame lamu.
But as he extends his power his kingdom will be broken up, divided towards the four winds of heaven. It will not go to his descendants, and it will not be ruled as he ruled. It will be pulled up and given to others.
5 Idibidi hina bagade da gasa bagade ba: mu. Be ea dadi gagui ouligisu dunu afae, amo ea gasa da heda: le, Idibidi hina bagade amo ea gasa baligimu. E amola da fi bagade, Idibidi hina bagade ea fi amo baligisa, amo e da ouligimu.
The king of the south will grow strong, but one of his officers will grow even stronger and will rule his kingdom with great authority.
6 Ode mogili da gidigili, Idibidi hina bagade da Silia hina bagadema gousa: su hamomu. E da ea idiwi amo Silia hina bagade lama: ne, ema imunu. Be amo gousa: su da fisi dagoi ba: mu. Amola Idibidi hina ea idiwi amola ea egoa amola ea mano amola hawa: hamosu dunu amo da e sigi asi, ilia da medole legei dagoi ba: mu.
Some years later they will form an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the south will be married to the king of the north to guarantee the peace treaty. However, she will not be able to keep her hold on power, nor will his power continue. She and her attendants will be betrayed, along with her child and husband. Later on, however,
7 Fa: no, amo uda ea fi dunu da Idibidi amoga hina bagade ba: mu. E da Silia hina bagade amo ea dadi gagui dunu ilima doagala: musa: masunu. E da ilia gasa bagade gagoi amo ganodini golili sa: ili, Silia dunu hasalasimu.
a new king of the south from her family will take over. He will come to attack the army of the king of the north and enter his fortress. He will fight against them and will win.
8 Amalalu, e da loboga hamoi ogogole ‘gode’ liligi, gouli, silifa, amoga hamoi liligi amo ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ amoma nodomusa: ilegei, amo e da Idibidi sogega gaguli masunu. Amalalu, ode mogili amoga, olofosu da ba: mu.
In addition he will take back with him to Egypt the idols of their gods, along with their expensive vessels of silver and gold. For some years he will leave the king of the north alone.
9 Be amo ode da gidigisia, Silia hina bagade da Idibidi fi doagala: musa: masunu. Be Idibidi dadi gagui wa: i da bu gasawane dabe gegenanu, Silia hina bagade da ea sogega buhagimu.
Then the king of the north will march into the kingdom of the king of the south but will have to retreat to his own land.
10 Silia hina bagade amo ea mano huluane mafia: le, dunu lidilalu dadi gagui dunu osea: idafa ba: mu. Amo dadi gagui dunu osea: idafa da hano leda: lala agoane osobo huluane dedeboiwane doagala: musa: asili, Idibidi hina bagade amo ea gasa bagade gagili sali amoga doaga: mu.
However, his sons will prepare for war, assembling a huge number of troops. One of them will lead an advance that rushes forward like a river bursting its banks, crossing over and pressing forward to attack the enemy fortress.
11 Amo hou ba: beba: le, Idibidi hina bagade da ougi bagade heda: le, Silia hina bagade ema gegemusa: masunu. Amola ea dadi gagui wa: i bagade da asili, Silia dunu huluane gagulaliligi, huluane da udigili hawa: hamosu dunu hamoi dagoi ba: mu.
This will infuriate the king of the south, who will go out into battle against the large army assembled by the king of the north and will defeat it.
12 Amalalu, Idibidi hina bagade da hahawane ba: mu. Bai e da Silia dadi gagui dunu bagohamedafa medole legei dagoi. Be ea hasalasisu hou da hame dialumu.
After capturing such a large army, he will become very proud, and will kill thousands. But this triumph will not last long.
13 Silia hina bagade da sinidigili, dadi gagui osea: idafa, amo ea musa: gilisi bagadewane baligima: ne, e da gagadomu. Ode mogili da gidigisia, ea dadi gagui dunu gilisisu bagadedafa gegesu liligi noga: idafa gaguiwane, da bu Idibidi fi ilima doagala: musa: masunu.
Years later the king of the north will once again raise an army, even larger than before, and will invade with this huge army, accompanied by plenty of supplies.
14 Amo esoga, dunu bagohame da sinidigili, Idibidi hina bagade ema odoga: mu. Amola dia fi dunu, Da: niele, mogili nimi bagade dunu da simasi eno ba: i dagoiba: le, da Idibidi hina bagadema odaga: ne gegemu. Be Idibidi hina bagade da ili hasalasimu.
At the same time many will rebel against the king of the south. Violent men from your own people will rebel in order to fulfill this vision, but they shall fail.
15 Amalalu, Silia hina bagade da moilai bai bagade amo da gasawane gagili sali gala, amoga gegenanu lamu. Amola Idibidi dadi gagui dunu da bu gegemu hamedeiwane ba: mu. Bai ilia noga: i dadi gagui dunu ilia gasa huluane fisi dagoi ba: mu.
Then the king of the north will come and build siege ramps and he will capture a city with strong defenses. The forces of the south will not be able to prevent it—even his best troops won't be able to resist the attack.
16 Ilia bu gegemu da hamedeiba: le, Silia hina bagade da ilima ea hanaiga hamomu. E da soge amo Gode da Ea fi dunuma imunu ilegelesia: i, amo ganodini e da lelumu amola ea gasaga dafawane amo soge gagumu.
The invader will do whatever he wants; no one will be able to oppose him. He will stand in the Beautiful Land with the power to destroy it.
17 Amalalu, Silia hina bagade da bu gegemusa: dawa: mu. E da ea dadi gagui huludafa gilisimu. E da Idibidi hina bagade ema gousa: su hamoma: ne, ea idiwi amo Idibidi hina bagade amo lama: ne, ema imunusa: sia: mu. Be amo ilegesu da didili hame hamoi ba: mu.
He will be determined to come with all the power of his kingdom and will make a peace treaty with the king of the south. To secure this he will give him a daughter of women to marry in order to destroy the kingdom. But she will not be successful and will not support him.
18 Amo fa: no, Silia hina bagade da fifi asi gala amo hano bagade bega: esala, amo doagala: lalu, e da mogili hasalasimu. Be ga fi ouligisu dunu da ema gegenanu, e hasalimu. Amalalu, ea gasa fi hou hedofai dagoi ba: mu. Ga fi dunu da Silia hina bagade amo ea gasa fi hou hedofamu, amola e sefasimu.
Then he will turn to attack the coastlands and will conquer many, but a commander will put a stop to his arrogant behavior, paying him back for it.
19 Silia hina bagade da hi soge ganodini, moilai bai bagade gagili sali dagoi, amoga buhagimu. Be e da enoga hasalasili, gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu.
He will return to the fortresses of his own land, but he will stumble and fall, and will be gone.
20 Fa: no, hina bagade eno da Silia hina bagade ea sogebi lamu. E da eagene ouligisu dunu amo eagene su (da: gisi) muni lama: ne asunasimu. Amo hou da doaga: lalu, ea dunu fi da se bagade nabimu. Be e da ode bagahame fawane hina hou hamonanu, bogomu. Ea bogosu da gegesu ganodini hame, amola ea bogosu amo dunu huluane da hame ba: mu.”
His successor will send out a tax collector to maintain royal wealth. However, in a short time he will die, but not violently or in battle.
21 A: igele dunu da eno amane sia: i, “Hina bagade eno da Silia soge ouligimusa: misunu. E da dunu wadela: idafa ba: mu. E da hina bagade hou hame hamomu galu, be e da eno ea sogebi lamu. Be e da ogogolewane, hedolowane hina bagade hamomusa: , gasa fiwane hina bagade hou gagumu.
A contemptible person will follow him who will not be given royal majesty. He will take over peacably and assume control of the kingdom through deception.
22 Nowa da ema gegemusa: dawa: lalu, e da ilima hasalasili wadela: lesimu. Gode Ea gobele salasu Ouligisu dunu amola da ema sia: nanea, e da amo osa: la heda: mu.
Great armies will be swept away before him. They will be broken, as well as the prince of the agreement.
23 E da eno fi dunuma ogogole gousa: su hou hamomu. E da fi fonobahadi fawane amo ganodini hina bagade esalebe ba: mu. Be e da ogogosu hou hamomuba: le, e da gasa bagade heda: lalebe ba: mu.
After making an alliance with him, he will act deceptively. He will come to power peacably, becoming strong though only having a few supporters.
24 E da sisasu mae iawane, muni bagade gagui soge fi amoga doagala: lalu, lamu. Amo soge ganodini e da hou amo ea aowalalia da hame hamoi, amo hamomu. Amalalu, e da liligi amola soge amo e da gegesu ganodini lai, amo fifili, ema fa: no bobogesu dunu ilima imunu. E da gasa bagade gagili sali moilaiga doagala: musa: , amo ilegemu. Be ea gasa fi hamosu da hedolo dagomu.
He will invade the richest parts of the land and do what his fathers and forefathers never did—he will distribute plunder, spoil, and possessions. He will make plans to attack fortresses, but only for a time.
25 E da mae beda: iwane, dadi gagui wa: i bagadedafa amo Idibidi hina bagadema doagala: musa: , gagadomu. Idibidi hina bagade amola da bu gegemusa: dadi gagui dunu bagohamedafa gagadomu. Be eno dunu da Idibidi hina bagade ema ogogobeba: le, e da dafamu.
Then he will draw on his strength and courage to gather a large army against the king of the south. The king of the south will prepare for war. Fighting back with a large and powerful army, but he will not be successful because of plots made against him.
26 Idibidi hina bagade ea eagene fidisu dunu (amo da e gadenene fidisu hou olelesa) ilia da hohonomuba: le, e da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Ea dadi gagui dunu bagohame da ilima ha lai dunu amoga medole legei dagoi ba: mu. Ea dadi gagui wa: i da wadela: lesi dagole, hamedafa ba: mu.
Those closest to him will destroy him. His army will be wiped out—many will fall in battle.
27 Amalalu, amo hina bagade aduna ela da gilisili ha: i manusa: fimu. Be ela asigi dawa: su ganodini da wadela: i fawane ba: mu. Amola ela da sia: dalu, bagadewane ogogomu. Ela hanai amo ela da hame ba: mu. Bai Gode da amo eso hame ilegei.
The two kings, with evil intentions, will tell each other lies even as they sit together at the same table. But their scheming is pointless—the end will come at the time predicted.
28 Silia hina bagade da liligi huluane e da gegesu ganodini lai, amo gaguiwane hi sogega buhagimu. E da Gode Ea fi dunu amola uda ilia Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu hou amo wadela: musa: bagadewane dawa: lalumu. E da hi hanaiga hamonanu, hi sogega buhagimu.
The king of the north will return to his own country with all the wealth he has looted. He will be determined to attack the people of the holy agreement, and do all he can to destroy it before returning to his own country.
29 Fa: no e da Idibidi amoma bu doagala: mu amola Idibidi soge ganodini golili sa: imu. Be amo esoga hou hisu da ba: mu.
At the time predicted he will return to invade the south again, but this time it won't be like before.
30 Louma dadi gagui dunu da dusagai bagade amo ganodini ema doagala: musa: misunu. E da bagadewane beda: mu. Amalalu, e da ougi bagade ba: mu. E da sinidigili, Gode Ea fi dunu ilia Godema sia: ne gadosu hou wadela: lesimusa: gegemu. E da nowa dunu ilia Gode Ea hou lalegaguli yolesi, amo ilia sia: nabalu, Gode Ea fi wadela: musa: dawa: mu.
Ships from Cyprus will come to attack him, frightening him off so that he retreats. But this will make him mad, and he will attack the people of the holy agreement, recognizing those who abandon their commitment to the holy agreement.
31 Ea dadi gagui mogili ilia da Debolo diasu ganodini ledo liligi ligisili, wadela: lesimu. Ilia eso huluane gobele salasu hou, amo hedofamu. Amola ilia da liligi amo ea dio da Wadela: idafa Liligi, amo Debolo diasu ganodini sagasimu.
His forces will occupy and defile the Temple fortress. They will put a stop to the continual service, and set up a form of idolatry that causes devastation.
32 Silia hina bagade da ilima ogogobeba: le, dunu mogili ilia da Gode Ea hou lalegagui yolesili, amo ilia da ema fa: no bobogemu. Be Godema dafawane fa: no bobogesu dunu da ilima bu gegemu.
The king will use flattery to corrupt those who break the solemn agreement, but the people who know their God will stand firm in their resistance.
33 Gode Ea fi bagade dawa: su ouligisu dunu da ilia dawa: su amo ilia fi dunu eno ilima olelemu. Be mogili ilia medole legei dagoi ba: mu. Mogili ilia da laluga nei dagole, bogoi dagoi ba: mu. Mogili ilia liligi da enoga wamolai dagoi ba: mu amola mogili da udigili hawa: hamonanebe ba: mu.
Wise leaders of the people will teach many, though for a time they will be killed by sword and fire, or they will be imprisoned and robbed.
34 Amo medole legesu hou da hamonanoba, eno dunu da Gode Ea fi dunu fonobahadi fidimu. Be mogili da ilisu ilia hou fidima: ne da ogogolewane Gode Ea fi ilima gilisimu.
During this time of persecution they will receive a little help, and many who join them won't be sincere.
35 Gode Ea fi bagade dawa: su ouligisu dunu amo mogili ilia da fane legei dagoi ba: mu. Be amo hou ganodini, Gode da Ea fi dunu adoba: lalu, fofoloamu. Amo hou da ba: lalu, Gode Ea ilegei eso amo doaga: lalu fawane yolesimu.
Some of the wise will be killed, so that they may be refined and purified and cleansed until the time of the end, for the predicted time is still to come.
36 Be Silia hina bagade da hi hanaiga hawa: hamonanumu. Amola e da gasa fi heda: le, hina: dio gaguia gadomusa: , e da ‘gode’ liligi huluane baligi dagoi, amane sia: mu.

Bai adiga Gode da hamomusa: dawa: lalu, E da dafawane hamomu.
The king will do whatever he wants, praising himself and considering himself greater than any god, even saying outrageous things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the time of anger has finished, for what has been decided will be accomplished.
37 Amo hina bagade da ‘gode’ liligi ilima ea aowalalia da hawa: hamosu, amo e da higamu. Amola ogogosu ‘gode’ ema uda da hanane ba: sa, amo amola e da higamu. E da ‘gode’ huluanedafa hame dawa: mu. Bai hi fawane da oda huluane amo baligisa dawa: mu galebe.
He will have no time for the gods of his forefathers, nor for the one loved by women, nor for any other god, for he considers himself greater than any of these.
38 Be e da ‘gode’ afadafa ema bagade dawa: mu. Amo ‘gode’ da ea dunu osobo dogone fi amo gasa bagade gagili sali diasu amo ouligisa e da dawa: mu. Ea aowalalia da amo ‘gode’ ema hame nodone sia: ne gadosu. Be e da amo ‘gode’ma gouli, silifa, igi ida: iwane amola eno noga: idafa liligi, ema imunu.
Instead he will honor the god of fortresses—a god unknown to his forefathers—giving him offerings of gold and silver and precious stones and expensive gifts.
39 E da ea moilai gagili sali amo gaga: musa: gini, ga fi hawa: hamosu dunu amo da ga fi ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ma sia: ne gadolala, amo lamu. E da nowa dunu da ea ouligisu hou hahawane lalegagusia, ilima e da ilia dio gaguia gadomu amola ouligisu hou amola soge ilima imunu.
He will deal with strong fortresses with the help of this foreign god. He will give riches to those who acknowledge him, making them rulers over the people, and distributing the land at a price.
40 Be Silia hina bagade dunu ea wadela: mu eso da gadenenana, Idibidi hina bagade da ema doagala: musa: misunu. Silia hina bagade da ema bu gasawane gegemu.

Amola gasa bagade gegemuba: le, ea dadi gagui da hano leda: lalebe defele osobo bagade dedebomu.
At the time of the end the king of the south will attack him. But the king of the north will retaliate with force like a storm, with chariots and horsemen and many ships. He will advance, sweeping through many lands.
41 Amola e da soge amo Gode da Ea fi ilima imunu ilegele sia: i (Isala: ili soge) amoga gegene, dunu osea: idafa medole lelegemu. Be Idome soge, Moua: be soge amola A: mone soge la: idi diala amo soge ganodini e da gegemusa: hame golili sa: imu.
He will invade the Beautiful Land and kill many people there. However, Moab, Edom, and most of the Ammonites will escape his power.
42 Amo esoga amola, e da Idibidi soge amoga gegenanu, golili sa: imu.
He will extend his attacks against different countries—even the land of Egypt will not be able to escape.
43 E da Idibidi fi ilia noga: i liligi wamolegei (silifa amola gouli amola eno noga: i liligi) amo lale hi sogega gaguli masunu. E da Libia soge amola Sudane soge amo hasalasimu.
He will acquire the gold and silver and riches of Egypt, ruling over them and also the Libyans and Ethiopians.
44 Amalalu, sia: da eso mabedi heda: su amoga amola ga (north) amoga e da nabalu, e da bagadewane beda: mu. Beda: iba: le, e da bu gasa bagadewane ludulalu, dunu eno osea: idafa medole legemu.
But news from the east and the north will alarm him, and in a furious rage he will set out to destroy and exterminate many people.
45 E da ea abula diasu bagadedafa amo sogebi da hano wayabo bagade la: idi amola eno la: idi da goumi amo da: iya Debolo diasu da gagui sogebi dogoa gala amoga ea da ea abula diasu gagumu. Be e da bogomu amola fidisu dunu afae hamedafa ba: mu.”
He will set up his royal camp between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain. But he will die with no one to help him.
