Daniel 11

1 Kai loe Median kami Darius angraenghaih saningto haih naah, anih to thapaek moe, caksak hanah kang doet.

And I also, in the first year of Darius the Mede, stood up to confirm and strengthen him.

2 Vaihi loktang lok to kang thuih han. Khenah, Persia prae ah siangpahrang thumto angzo vop tih; palito haih siangpahrang loe kalah siangpahrangnawk boih pongah angraeng kue tih: anih loe angraenghaih mah thacaksak ueloe, Grik prae to tuk hanah kaminawk boih pahruek tih.

And now I will tell thee what is true. Behold, there shall arise yet three kings in Persia, and the fourth shall be far richer than they all; and, relying upon his riches, he shall stir up all against the realm of Greece.

3 To pacoengah thacak siangpahrang maeto angzo tih, anih loe thacakhaih hoiah uk ueloe, a koeh baktiah sah tih.

But a mighty king shall arise, and rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.

4 Toe a uk ih prae loe koi ueloe, van takhi songhaih tlim ah prae palito ah ampraek o tih: angmah ih acaengnawk khaeah prae to paek mak ai, a thacakhaih hoi uk ih prae baktiah doeh om mak ai; acaeng kalah kaminawk mah anih ih prae to la pae o ving tih.

But when he shall have arisen, his kingdom shall be broken in pieces, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor with the dominion with which he ruled; for his kingdom shall be plucked up, and divided amongst others besides those.

5 Aloih bang ih siangpahrang loe thacak tih, angmah angraengnawk thung ih maeto loe angmah pongah thacak kue ueloe, paroeai thacakhaih hoiah a prae to uk tih.

And the king of the South shall become strong; but one of his princes shall become stronger than he, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion.

6 Saning boeng naah nihcae loe nawnto angkom o tih; aloih bang siangpahrang canu loe palungduehaih sak hanah, aluek bang siangpahrang khaeah caeh tih; toe siangpahrang canu loe a thacakhaih tawn poe mak ai; a sava siangpahrang thacakhaih hoi ukhaih doeh cak poe mak ai; to nathuem ah siangpahrang canu bomkung, anih cunkung hoi thapaek kaminawk to hum o boih tih.

And after some years they shall ally themselves with each other; and the daughter of the king of the South shall come to the king of the North, to make peace; but she shall not retain the power of giving aid; neither shall he stand, nor his aid; but she shall be given up, and they that caused her to go, and he that begat her, and he that received her in those times.

7 Toe siangpahrang canu acaeng thung hoiah aloih bang prae ukkung siangpahrang maeto tacawt tih; anih mah angmah ih misatuh kami hoiah aluek bang siangpahrang ih vangpui to tuh ueloe, pazawk tih:

But from a shoot of her roots shall one arise in his place, who shall come to an army, and shall come against the fortresses of the king of the North, and shall deal with them according to his pleasure, and prevail against them.

8 siangpahrang mah nihcae ih sithawnawk, krangnawk, sui, sum kanglung hoi sak ih atho kana boengloengnawk to, Izip prae ah phaw o tih; anih loe aluek bang siangpahrang pongah saning sawk kue tih.

And their gods, with their molten images, and their precious vessels of silver and of gold, shall he carry into captivity into Egypt; then shall he stand away for many years from the king of the North;

9 To pacoengah aluek bang siangpahrang loe aloih bang siangpahrang prae tuk hanah akun tih, toe angmah prae ah amlaem let tih.

and he shall come against the kingdom of the king of the South, but he shall return into his own land.

10 Toe a capanawk mah misatuk han pahruek o ueloe, paroeai misatuh kaminawk to kok o tih; nihcae loe pakaa thai ai kalong tui baktiah angzo o tih, anih loe amlaem let ueloe, a loih bang siangpahrang vangpui sipae khoek to misatuk hanah amsak tih.

But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of large forces; and one of them shall move onward, and overflow, and pass through, and shall again stir himself up to carry on the war even to his stronghold.

11 To naah aloih bang siangpahrang to palungphui ueloe, anih mah aluek bang siangpahrang to tuh tih; aluek bang siangpahrang loe pop parai misatuh kaminawk to tawnh, toe aloih bang siangpahrang mah anih to pazawk tih.

Then shall the king of the South be enraged, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the North; and shall lead forth a great multitude, and the multitude shall be given into his hand.

12 Pop parai misatuh kaminawk pazawk pacoengah, aloih bang ih siangpahrang loe amoek ueloe, sang hato pongah kanoih pop parai kaminawk to hum tih; toe misa pazawkhaih to cak poe mak ai.

And the multitude shall be elated, and his heart shall be lifted up, and he shall cast down tens of thousands; but he shall not be strong.

13 Aluek bang siangpahrang loe hmaloe ih kami pong pop kue ah, misatuh kaminawk to kok tih, saning nazetto maw akra pacoengah, maiphaw congca hoiah amthoep ueloe, kanoih parai misatuh kaminawk hoi nawnto angzo let tih.

For the king of the North shall return and raise up against him a multitude greater than the former, and shall steadily come after certain years with a great army and with great riches.

14 To naah aloih bang siangpahrang loe misa tawn mang tih; hnuksakhaih akoep hanah angmah ih kaminawk mah anih to misa angthawk o thuih tih; toe nihcae mah pazawk o mak ai.

And in those times many will stand up against the king of the South; and violent men of thy people shall exalt themselves, so as to establish the vision, and shall fall.

15 To pongah aluek bang siangpahrang to angzo tih, misa anghawkhaih long khaw to takae o ueloe, kacakah pakaa ih vangpui to la o tih: aloih bang misatuh kaminawk loe pakaahaih tha tawn o mak ai, kahoih koek qoih ih misatuh kaminawk mah doeh pakaa o thai mak ai.

And the king of the North shall come, and cast up a mound, and take a fortified city; and the arms of the South shall not withstand, neither his chosen men, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.

16 Anih tuh kami loe a koeh baktih toengah hmuen to sah tih, mi doeh a hma ah angdoe thai mak ai: anih mah lensawk prae to tuh ueloe, amrosak tih.

And he that cometh against him shall do according to his will, and none shall stand before him; and he shall stand in the beautiful land, and destruction shall be in his hand.

17 Anih loe katoeng kaminawk to angmah khaeah hoi ueloe, prae thacakhaih boih hoiah aloih bang prae thungah akun hanah tha pathok tih; aloih bang ih siangpahrang to amrosak hanah, aluek bang ih siangpahrang mah nongpata maeto paek tih; toe nongpata mah anih han toksah pae mak ai, anih han atho doeh om mak ai.

And he shall set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and shall make pacification with him; and he shall give him his daughter in marriage, to ruin his dominion. But it shall not succeed, neither shall it be for him.

18 To pacoengah aluek bang siangpahrang loe tuipui thung ih praenawk bangah angqoi ueloe, kanoih parai kaminawk to naeh tih: toe misatuh angraeng maeto mah to kaminawk nuiah sak ih kahoih ai hmuen to amtuengsak han ai ah, a sak ih kahoih ai hmuen to misatuh siangpahrang nuiah krahsak lat tih.

After this he shall turn his face to the isles, and shall take many; but a commander shall put an end to his scorn; nay, shall cause his scorn to return upon himself.

19 To pacoengah anih loe sipae hoi takui ih misa abuephaih kaom angmah prae ah amlaem let tih; toe anih loe loklam ah amtimh tih, hnuk let han om mak ai boeh.

Then shall he turn his face to the strongholds of his own land; and he shall stumble, and fall, and shall not be found.

20 Anih toksakhaih ahmuen toepkung aluek bang ih siangpahrang loe lensawk siangpahrang prae to caksak poe hanah, tamut cong kami khaeah tamut cong hanah lok to paek tih; toe saning akra ai ah anih loe palungphuihaih pongah na ai, misa angtukhaih pongah doeh na ai ah, anghma angtaa tih.

Then shall arise in his place one who shall send an exacter of tribute through the glory of his kingdom; but within few days shall he be destroyed, neither by anger nor by battle.

21 Anih ih qawktoep hanah siangpahrang qawktoep kami ah suek ih siangpahrang ih acaeng ai, panuet thok kami maeto mah qawk to toep tih; toe anih loe tha patoh ai ah lunghoita hoiah angzo ueloe, kasae pacaenghaih hoiah prae to la tih.

And in his place shall arise a despised person, to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom; but in the midst of peace he shall come in and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

22 Tui baktiah thacak misatuh kaminawk to a hma hoiah amrosak boih tih; ue, Sithaw lokmaihaih kasah zaehoikung angraeng doeh paduek tih.

And the forces of a flood shall be overwhelmed before him, and shall be broken in pieces; and even the prince that is allied with him.

23 To tiah anih mah angdaehaih to sah tih, toe alinghaih hoiah ni angdaehhaih to sah tih; kami zetta e, anih loe thacak tih.

For after making a league with him, he will practise deceit; for he will come up, and prevail with a small people.

24 Anih loe misa angtukhaih om ai ah, poek ai pui hoiah caaknaek pop koek prae thungah akun tih; anih loe ampanawk hoi ampa ih ampanawk mah sak o vai ai ih hmuen to sah tih: a lak ih hmuenmae congcanawk to minawk hanah pazet tih; kacakah pakaa ih vangpui to atue setta thung lak hanah pacaeng tih.

In the midst of security shall he come into the fattest provinces of the land, and he shall do what his fathers never did, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them prey, and spoil, and riches; and he shall form his devices against the strongholds, even to a set time.

25 Anih mah pop parai misatuh kami to pakhueng ueloe, misahoihaih hoiah aloih bang ih siangpahrang to tuh tih: aloih bang ih siangpahrang doeh kating ai pop misatuh kami thacakhaih hoiah misatuk hanah amsak toeng tih; toe aloih bang ih siangpahrang nuiah kasae sak han pacaeng o pongah, anih loe angdoe thai mak ai.

And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the South, with a great army; and the king of the South shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand, for they shall form devices against him.

26 Ue, angmah pacah ih kaminawk mah siangpahrang to hum o tih; to naah anih ih misatuh kaminawk loe anghma angtaa o tih; kating ai kaminawk dueh o tih.

Even they that eat of his own food shall destroy him; and his army shall overflow, and many shall fall down slain.

27 Siangpahrang hnik loe kahoih ai hmuen to poek hoi ueloe, caboi maeto nuiah amsawnlok to thui hoi tih; toe atim hoi haih to koep thai mak ai: long boenghaih loe atue khaehhaih phak naah ni om tih.

And the hearts of both these kings shall be to do mischief; and at one table shall they speak lies; but it shall not prosper; for yet the end is for the appointed time.

28 To pacoengah aluek bang ih siangpahrang loe hmuenmae angraeng paraihaih hoiah angmah prae ah amlaem tih; to naah ciimcai lokmaihaih kasah Sithaw kaminawk to ut ueloe, hmuenmae koeh thaithue paro pae pacoengah ni angmah prae ah amlaem vop tih.

Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and he will set his heart against the holy covenant, and he will execute his purposes, and return to his own land.

29 Atue khaehhaih phak naah, anih loe aloih bang ih prae to tuk hanah angzo let tih; toe hmaloe ih baktiah om mak ai, hnukkhuem ih baktiah doeh om mak ai.

At the appointed time he shall again go against the South; but the second time it shall not be as at the first.

30 Kittim ih palongpuinawk mah anih to pakaa khoep ueloe, palungnat hoiah amlaem let tih; anih amlaem let naah, ciimcai Sithaw lokmaihaih, tiah doeh sah ai kaminawk hoiah ampui sah tih, anih loe palungphui loiah ciimcai Sithaw khaeah lokmaihaih sah kaminawk to paro tih.

For the Chittaean ships shall come against him, and he shall be discouraged, and return, and be enraged against the holy covenant, and execute his purposes; and he shall again have an understanding with them that forsake the holy covenant.

31 Anih mah angmah ih misatuh kaminawk to pahruek ueloe, hmuenciim to amhnong sak tih; ni thokkruek sak ih angbawnhaih to pakaa o ving ueloe, to ahmuen ah kamrosak thaih panuet thok hmuen to suem o tih.

And forces shall be raised by him, which shall pollute the sanctuary, the stronghold, and take away the daily sacrifice, and set up the abomination of the destroyer.

32 Siangpahrang mah lokmaihaih tiah doeh sah ai kaminawk anih khaeah athum o thai hanah, alinghaih lok hoiah zoek tih; toe Sithaw panoek kaminawk loe thacakhaih hoiah anih ih lok to aek o tih.

And such as do wickedly against the covenant will he lead to apostasy by flatteries; but the people that know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

33 Kaminawk thung ih palungha kaminawk mah kanoih parai kaminawk to loklam patuek tih; toe nihcae loe pop parai ani thungah sumsen hoi humhaih, hmai hoi qoenghaih, misong ah naehhaih hoi hmuenmae lomhaih to tong o tih.

And they that have understanding among the people shall instruct many; but they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.

34 To tiah nihcae raihaih tongh o naah, abomhaih zetta ni hnu o tih; toe poekcak ai kaminawk loe kami aling thaih kaminawk hoiah amzok o tih.

And whilst they fall they shall receive a little help, and many shall join themselves to them with flatteries.

35 Atue boenghaih pha ai karoek to, nihcae thung ih thoemto panoekhaih tawn kaminawk to ciimsak moe, coek koi om ai ah anglungsak hanah, nihcae loe amtimh o tih; to hmuen loe anih mah atue khaehhaih karoek to om tih.

And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purify, and cleanse, even to the time of the end, for it is yet at the time appointed.

36 Siangpahrang loe a koeh baktiah hmuen to sah tih, sithawnawk boih pong kasang ah angmah hoi angmah to amkoeh ueloe, amlue tih; anih mah sithawnawk ih Sithaw lok aekhaih to thui tih, anih loe Sithaw palungphuihaih akoep ai karoek to khosak hoih tih; to hmuen loe lok takroek tangcae ih baktiah om tih.

And the king shall do according to his will; and he will exalt himself and magnify himself against every god, and he will speak horrible things against the God of gods, and he will prosper until the indignation be accomplished; for that which is determined shall be done.

37 To siangpahrang loe ampanawk ih sithaw, nongpatanawk mah koeh ih kawbaktih sithaw doeh khingyahaih tawn mak ai; tih boih pong kasang ah angmah hoi angmah to amkoeh tih.

Neither will he regard the god of his fathers, nor the desire of women; nor will he regard any god, but he will magnify himself against all.

38 Toe nihcae pakoeh zuengah misa buephaih kacak sipae to sithaw ah pakoeh tih; anih loe ampanawk mah panoek vai ai ih sithaw to pakoeh lat pongah, to sithaw to sui, sum kanglung, atho kana thlung, koeh koi kaom hmuenmaenawk hoiah khingyahaih paek tih.

But in their place will he honor the god of strongholds, even the god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and with silver, and with precious stones, and with jewels.

39 Angmah panoek ih prae kalah sithaw bok kaminawk abomhaih rang hoiah, kacak parai misa angvaenghaih sipae to tuh tih, to tiah a lensawkhaih to sang aep tih: to kaminawk to ukkung ah suem ueloe, nihcae han prae to pazet tih.

And he shall do his will against fenced strongholds with a strange god; whoever acknowledge him, to them he will give great honor, and give them dominion over many, and divide the land amongst them for a reward.

40 Atue boenghaih phak naah loe aloih bang ih siangpahrang mah aluek bang ih siangpahrang to tuh tih; aluek bang ih siangpahrang loe hrang lakoknawk, hrang angthueng misatuh kaminawk, pop parai palongpuinawk hoiah angzo ueloe, anih to kamhae takhi baktiah tuh tih: to prae thungah tui kalong baktiah akun ueloe, nihcae to tuh pazawk tih.

But at the time of the end shall the king of the South push at him, and the king of the North shall rush against him like a whirlwind with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and overflow them, and pass over them.

41 Anih loe lensawk prae thungah doeh akun tih, pop parai prae kaminawk to dueh o tih; toe Edom, Moab hoi Ammon prae zaehoikungnawk loe anih ban thung hoi loih o tih.

He shall also enter into the beautiful land, and multitudes shall be overthrown; but these shall escape out of his hand, Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the sons of Ammon.

42 A thacakhaih ban hoiah pop parai praenawk to la tih, Izip prae doeh loih mak ai.

He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

43 Toe anih mah sui, sum kanglung hoi Izip prae thung ih atho kana hmuen congcanawk to la boih tih; Lybia hoi Ethiopia doeh pazawk tih.

And he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; and the Lybians and Ethiopians shall be in his train.

44 Toe ni angyae bang hoi aluek bang ih tamthang mah anih to tasoehsak tih; to pongah anih loe palungphui parai ueloe, pop parai kaminawk hum hanah caeh tih.

But tidings out of the East and out of the North shall trouble him, and he shall go forth with great fury to destroy and utterly to take away many.

45 Anih mah tuipui hoi lensawk ciimcai mae salakah kahni im to sah tih; toe anih loe bomkung tawn ai ah, boenghaih to pha tih.

And he shall pitch his palace-tents between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain; but he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.
