Daniel 7
1 Babylon siangpahrang Belshazzar siangpahrang ah ohhaih saningto naah, Daniel loe angmah ih iihkhun nuiah angsong naah amaang ah hnuksakhaih to amtueng; amaang ah hnuk ih hmuennawk to anih mah tarik.
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, [and] told the sum of the matters.
2 Daniel mah, Aqum naah hnuksakhaih ka hnuk ih loe khenah, Van ih takhi palitonawk loe kalen parai tuipui nuiah misa angthawk o.
Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.
3 To naah maeto hoi maeto anghmong ai, moisan palitonawk loe tuipui thung hoiah tacawt o tahang.
And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
4 Hmaloe koek maeto loe kaipui baktiah oh moe, tahmu pakhraeh to a tawnh; ka khet naah angmah ih pakhraeh to azuh moe, kami baktiah khok hoi long ah angdoet; anih khaeah kami ih palung to paek.
The first [was] like a lion, and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it.
5 Kalah hnetto haih loe taqom baktiah oh. Ahnuk bang ih khok hoiah angdoet moe, pakha thung ih haa salakah panakhuh thumto a kaek; anih khaeah, Angthawk ah loe, moi to kamhah ah caa ah, tiah a naa o.
And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and [it had] three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
6 To pacoengah ka dan let naah, Kaithlaeng hoi kanghmong, kalah moisan maeto ka hnuk let, a kaeng nuiah tavaa ih pakhraeh palito oh. Moisan loe alu palito oh moe, uk thaihaih akaa to tawnh.
After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
7 To pacoengah aqum naah hnuksakhaih amtueng let, paroeai thacak moe, zit kaom palito haih moisan to ka hnuk. Anih loe kalen parai sum baktih kaom haa to a tawnh, a kaek ih moi to taprawt pet pet pacoengah paaeh, kanghmat to khok hoiah atit. Anih loe kalah moisannawk hoi anghmong ai, taki hato a tawnh.
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it [was] diverse from all the beasts that [were] before it; and it had ten horns.
8 Takinawk to ka poek li naah, takinawk salak hoiah kalah taki tetta maeto tacawt let; tacawt hmaloe taki thumtonawk loe to taki tetta hma ah tangzun hoi nawnto aphong o king. Khenah, to taki tetta loe kami mik baktiah mik to a tawnh moe, amoekhaih lok apae thaih pakha doeh a tawnh.
I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn [were] eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
9 Ka khet li naah, siangpahrang ih angraengtangkhang to pahung o, Canghnii ih aninawk loe angraeng tangkhang pongah anghnut; a khukbuen loe dantui baktiah anglung, a lu ih sam doeh tuumui baktiah anglung. Anih ih angraeng tangkhang loe hmaipalai baktiah oh moe, angraeng tangkhang khoknawk doeh kangqong hmai baktiah oh.
I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment [was] white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne [was like] the fiery flame, [and] his wheels [as] burning fire.
10 A hmaa hoiah tui baktiah kangqong hmai to longh; sangto pacoeng, sangto kaminawk mah anih ih tok to sak pae o moe, Anih hmaa ah sang haato pacoeng, sang haato kaminawk angdoet o; lokcaekhaih to oh moe, cabunawk to paongh o.
A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
11 Taki tetta mah amoekhaih lok to thuih pongah kawbang maw om tih vai, tiah ka khet; ka khet li naah moisan to hum o moe, kangqong hmai thungah vah o.
I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld [even] till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.
12 Kalah moisannawk ih ukhaih to lak pae o ving; toe atue nasetto thungah maw loe nihcae hinghaih to pathlung pae.
As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.
13 Aqum ah hnuksakhaih kai khaeah amtueng, khenah, kami Capa baktiah kaom Kami maeto loe, van ih tamainawk hoiah angzoh. To Kami loe canghnii ih ani khaeah angzoh, anih to Canghnii ih ani hmaa ah caeh o haih.
I saw in the night visions, and, behold, [one] like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
14 Kaminawk, prae kaminawk hoi lok congca pae kaminawk boih mah anih to bok o hanah, uk thaihaih akaa, lensawkhaih hoi prae to anih hanah paek; anih ukhaih loe amro thai ai, dungzan ukhaih ah oh, a prae doeh amro mak ai.
And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion [is] an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom [that] which shall not be destroyed.
15 Kai, Daniel loe patangkhang, ka poek thai ai, hnuksakhaih mah raihaih ang paek.
I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of [my] body, and the visions of my head troubled me.
16 A taengah angdoe kaminawk maeto khaeah ka caeh moe, to ih hmuennawk thuih koehhaih ahlong to ka dueng. To pongah anih mah to ih hmuennawk thuih koehhaih ahlong to ang leh pae.
I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.
17 Kalen parai moisan palitonawk loe long hoiah tacawt han koi siangpahrang palito thuih koehhaih ih ni.
These great beasts, which are four, [are] four kings, [which] shall arise out of the earth.
18 Toe Kasang koek ih kaciim kaminawk mah prae to la o ueloe, dungzan khoek to, ue, dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to toep o tih, tiah thuih.
But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.
19 To pacoengah kalah moisannawk hoi anghmong ai, zit kathok sum baktiah kaom haa hoi sum kamling banpacin katawn, a kaek ih moi taprawt pet pet moe, paaeh pacoengah kanghmat moi to khok hoiah atii palito haih moisan kawng to panoek han ka koeh;
Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth [were of] iron, and his nails [of] brass; [which] devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;
20 a lu nuiah taki haato kacawn thuih koehhaih hoi hmaloe ih taki thumto pazawk, mik kaom, amoekhaih lok apae thaih, ampuinawk pongah kalen kue, takinawk salak hoiah tacawt let kalah taki maeto thuih koehhaih ahlong to panoek han ka koeh.
And of the ten horns that [were] in his head, and [of] the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even [of] that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look [was] more stout than his fellows.
21 Ka khet li naah to taki mah kaciim kaminawk to misa a tuk moe, nihcae to pazawk;
I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
22 to pacoengah Canghnii ih ani to angzoh, Kasang koek Sithaw ih kaciim kaminawk khaeah lokcaekhaih to a paek; atue mah phak boeh pongah prae to toep hanah kaciim kaminawk mah lak o.
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.
23 To naah anih mah, Palito haih moisan loe kalah siangpahrang ukhaih praenawk hoi anghmong ai, long nuiah angzo han koi siangpahrang ukhaih prae palito hnuksakhaih ih ni, to prae mah loe long pum hae paaeh boih tih, long to koisak phaeng ueloe, khok hoiah atii tih.
Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 To prae thung hoi tacawt taki haato loe angzo han koi siangpahrang haatonawk hnuksakhaih ih ni, nihcae pacoengah kalah siangpahrang to tacawt tih; anih loe hmaloe ih siangpahrang hoi anghmong mak ai, anih mah siangpahrang thumtonawk to uk boih tih.
And the ten horns out of this kingdom [are] ten kings [that] shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
25 Anih loe Kasang koek Sithaw to tuk hanah amoekhaih lok to thui tih, Kasang koek ih kaciim kaminawk to pacaekthlaek tih, khotue hoi daannawk to athlaeng hanah tha pathok tih; atue maeto thung, atuenawk thung, atue ahap thung, to tiah sak thaihaih akaa to anih ban ah paek tih.
And he shall speak [great] words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
26 Toe hnukhuem ah lokcaekhaih to om ueloe, anih ukhaih prae to la pae ving tih, to naah anih loe dungzan khoek to anghma poe tih boeh.
But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy [it] unto the end.
27 To pacoengah van tlim ah kaom siangpahrang prae, ukhaih hoi lensawkhaihnawk to Kasang koek Sithaw ih kaciim kaminawk khaeah paek boih tih. To ukhaih prae loe dungzan ukhaih prae ah oh, ukkungnawk boih mah anih to bok o ueloe, a lok to tahngai pae o tih, tiah a naa.
And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
28 To hmuen kawng thuikoehhaih loe haeah boeng boeh. Kai, Daniel loe ka poekhaih patangkhang moe, mikhmai ka set sut boeh; toe ka hnuk ih hmuennawk to palung thungah ka pakuem, tiah thuih.
Hitherto [is] the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart.
