Daniel 8
1 Manghai Belshazzar ram kah a kum thum dongah tah mangthui te kai Daniel kamah taengah phoe tih lamhma kah te ni kai taengah koep a phoe.
In the third year of the reign of king Baltasar, a vision appeared to me. I Daniel, after what I had seen in the beginning,
2 Mangthui neh ka hmuh bangla a om vaengah ka sawt hatah kamah tah Elam paeng kah Shushan rhalmah im kana om. Mangthui ah koep ka hmuh bal vaengah tah kai he Ulai tuilong ah ka om bal.
Saw in my vision when I was in the castle of Susa, which is in the province of Elam: and I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai.
3 Ka mik te ka huel tih ka sawt vaengah tuilong dan ah tutal pakhat tarha pai. Te te ki panit om tih a ki te bok sen. Pakhat te a pabae lakah sen tih a sen te a hnuk ah thoeng.
And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold a ram stood before the water, having two high horns, and one higher than the other, and growing up. Afterward
4 Tutal te ka hmuh vaengah khotlak la, tlangpuei la, tuithim la a thoeh tih mulhing boeih loh a mikhmuh ah pai thai pawh. Anih kut lamloh aka huul khaw a om pawt dongah a kolonah bangla a saii tih rhoeng.
I saw the ram pushing with his horns against the west, and against the north, and against the south: and no beasts could withstand him, nor be delivered out of his hand: and he did according to his own will, and became great.
5 Kai khaw ka om na kungah ka yakming vaengah khotlak lamkah maae tal tarha ha thoeng. Te long te diklai hmai boeih a poe tih diklai khaw ben pawh. Maae tal te a mik laklo ah mingphanah ki om.
And I understood: and behold a he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and he touched not the ground, and the he goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
6 Te vaengah ki boei tutal taengla cet tih tuilong hmai ah a pai te ka hmuh. Te phoeiah a taengla a thadueng kosi neh yong.
And he went up to the ram that had the horns, which I had seen standing before the gate, and he ran towards him in the force of his strength.
7 Te phoeiah tutal taengla a ben tih tutal te a phaep. Tutal te a thoeh tih a ki rhoi te tlawt. Tutal te anih hmai ah pai hamla a khuiah thadueng khueh pawt tih diklai la a voeih. Tutal te a suntlae tih anih kut lamloh aka huul om pawh.
And when he was come near the ram, he was enraged against him, and struck the ram: and broke his two horns, and the ram could not withstand him: and when he had cast him down on the ground, he stamped upon him, and none could deliver the ram out of his hand.
8 Maae tal bahoeng rhoeng tih a thaom dae a ki len tah tlawt. Te phoeiah a yueng pali te mingphanah la cawn tih vaan khohli pali taengla hoiuh.
And the he goat became exceeding great: and when he was grown, the great horn was broken, and there came up four horns under it towards the four winds of heaven.
9 Te rhoek khuiah pakhat dong lamloh a ki noe pakhat cawn dae tuithim la, khocuk la, kirhang taengla muep rhoeng.
And out of one of them came forth a little horn: and it became great against the south, and against the east, and against the strength.
10 Vaan caempuei taengla rhoeng tih caempuei taeng lamloh, aisi taeng lamloh diklai la cungku tih amih te a suntlae.
And it was magnified even unto the strength of heaven: and it threw down of the strength, and of the stars, and trod upon them.
11 Te phoeiah caempuei mangpa la a pomsang dae anih lamkah sainoek te a kuel a kuel tih a rhokso hmuen te a voeih pah.
And it was magnified even to the prince of the strength: and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary.
12 Boekoeknah he caempuei neh sainoek yueng la a khueh. Te vaengah oltak te diklai la a voeih tih a saii daengah thaihtak.
And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper.
13 Te phoeiah hlangcim pakhat loh a thui te ka yaak tih, “Hlangcim pakhat loh pakhat taengah, 'Sainoek kah mangthui khaw me hil nim a thui ve? Boekoeknah loh hmuencim te dingrhak la khueh ham neh caempuei kah cawtkoi ham khaw,” a ti.
And I heard one of the saints speaking, and one saint said to another, I know not to whom that was speaking: How long shall be the vision, concerning the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation that is made: and the sanctuary, and the strength be trodden under foot?
14 Te vaengah kai taengah, “Hlaem mincang thawng hnih ya thum duela om vetih hmuencim te a ciim ni,” a ti.
And he said to him: Unto evening and morning two thousand three hundred days: and the sanctuary shall be cleansed.
15 Kai Daniel kamah khaw mangthui ka hmuh vaengah yakmingnah ka tlap. Te vaengah hlang kah mueimae bangla kamah hmai ah tarha pai.
And it came to pass when I Daniel saw the vision, and sought the meaning, that behold there stood before me as it were the appearance of a man.
16 Ulai lamkah hlang ol ka yaak vaengah pang tih, “Gabriel, a hmuethma he n'yakming sak lah,” a ti.
And I heard the voice of a man between Ulai: and he called, and said: Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
17 Te dongah ka paihmuen la ha thoeih tih anih ham pha vaengah ka let. Ka maelhmai dongah ka bakop dae kai te, “Hlang capa aw, mangthui a bawtnah tue te yakming laeh,” a ti.
And he came and stood near where I stood: and when he was come, I fell on my face trembling, and he said to me: Understand, O son of man, for in the time of the end the vision shall be fulfilled.
18 Kai ham a thui vaengah ka maelhmai neh diklai la ka ip coeng. Tedae kai te n'taek tih ka paihmuen la kai n'thoh.
And when he spoke to me I fell flat on the ground: and he touched me, and set me upright,
19 Te phoeiah, “A bawtnah khoning vaengkah kosi bawtnah dongah aka om ham te nang taengah kan ming sak ne,” a ti.
And he said to me: I will shew thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end.
20 Tutal ki boei na hmuh te Madai neh Persia manghai ne.
The ram, which thou sawest with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians.
21 Maae tal tah Greek manghai tih a mik laklo kah ki a len tah lamhma kah manghai ni.
And the he goat, is the king of the Greeks, and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king.
22 Te te a tlawt phoeiah a yueng pali a cawn he namtom lamkah ram pali pai suidae a thadueng neh om mahpawh.
But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength.
23 Hmailong ah amih ram khaw boekoek cung vetih maelhmai aka tlung neh olkael aka yakming manghai phoe ni.
And after their reign, when iniquities shall be grown up, there shall arise a king of a shameless face, and understanding dark sentences.
24 Te vaengah a thadueng rhoeng suidae a thadueng neh om mahpawh. Khobaerhambae khaw a phae vetih thaihtak ni. Te phoeiah a saii vetih pilnu neh pilnam cim khaw a phae ni.
And his power shall be strengthened, but not by his own force: and he shall lay all things waste, and shall prosper, and do more than can be believed. And he shall destroy the mighty, and the people of the saints,
25 A lungmingnah nen khaw, a kut dongkah thailatnah nen khaw thaihtak vetih a thinko ah pomsang ni. Ommongnah dongah khaw muep paci vetih mangpa rhoek kah mangpa taengah pai bal ni. Tedae hlang kut mueh nen ni a bawt eh.
According to his will, and craft shall be successful in his hand: and his heart shall be puffed up, and in the abundance of all things he shall kill many: and he shall rise up against the prince of princes, and shall be broken without hand.
26 Hlaem neh mincang kah a hmuethma loh oltak amah te a thui coeng. Tedae namah kum a sen ham la mangthui te khoem laeh.
And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true: thou therefore seal up the vision, because it shall come to pass after many days.
27 Kai Daniel khaw ka om dae khohnin loh nue coeng. Ka thoh neh manghai kah bitat te ka saii. Te dongah a hmuethma nen khaw ka pong tih ka yakming voel pawh.
And I Daniel languished, and was sick for some days: and when I was risen up, I did the king’s business, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none that could interpret it.
