< Daniel 10 >

1 Persiate leng, Cyrus kitipa, leng chankal kumthum lhinkumin, Belteshazzar jong kisah Daniel chun, themgao thilmu in mu aneikitin ahi. Aman hichea athilmu chu, khonunga hesoh gentheina leh gal nasatah phat hung lhung tei ding, kiphong doh ahi, ti ahetai.
In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a thing is revealed to Daniel, whose name is called Belteshazzar, and the thing [is] true, and the warfare [is] great: and he has understood the thing, and has understanding about the appearance.
2 Hiche themgao thilmua mu kanei laitah chun, Daniel keima, hapta thum lhingset lunghem puldouva ka um laitah ahi.
“In those days, I, Daniel, have been mourning three weeks of days;
3 Chuche phatsungse se chun, keiman anneh alhum atwi kanepoi. Sa jong kanepon chuleh lengpitwi jong kakam sunga alutkha poi. Chuleh hapta thum lhinkah chun, thao namtwi jong kinu louvin ka um’e.
I have not eaten desirable bread, and no flesh and wine came into my mouth, and I have not anointed myself at all, until the completion of three weeks of days.
4 Lhamasa nisomni leh nili lhinnin, keima vadung minthang Tigris pang’a kana dingin ahi.
And in the twenty-fourth day of the first month, I have been by the side of the great river, that [is] Hiddekel:
5 Keima kadahin kavet leh, tupat ponnem kisil mipa khat kamun, ama chun akong’a sana thengsel konggah akigahin ahi.
and I lift up my eyes, and look, and behold, a certain one clothed in linen, and his loins girt with pure gold of Uphaz,
6 Amapa tahsa chu song mantam abangin, amaiso jong kolphe bangin avahin, chuleh amit teni jong meikou kide abang e. Abanjang teni leh akeng teni jong, sum-eng kinot jolsel bang in avalin, chuleh a awso jong mihon tamtah awgin abangin ahi.
and his body as a beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet as the aspect of bright bronze, and the voice of his words as the voice of a multitude.
7 Daniel keima, changsehin, hiche themgao thilmu hi kamu ahi. Kaum khompi miho chun hiche kathilmu chu amupouve. Ahin, amaho atijauvin, chuleh kiseldoh dingin ajam mang soh tauve.
And I, Daniel, have seen the vision by myself, and the men who have been with me have not seen the vision, but a great trembling has fallen on them, and they flee to be hidden;
8 Chuin keima ka changsehin eidalhauvin, chuche themgao thilmu nasatah chu kamu tai. Hichun katha jouse abeiyin, kamelso akikhelin chuleh thanei louvin kalel lheh jengin ahi.
and I have been left by myself, and I see this great vision, and there has been no power left in me, and my splendor has been turned in me to corruption, indeed, I have not retained power.
9 Chuin keiman mipa thusei chu kajan, chutia ama awgin kajah chun, tol-ah kalhun, kamai kasulutin chuleh kathimilliu tan ahi.
And I hear the voice of his words, and when I hear the voice of his words, then I have been in a trance on my face, and my face [is] to the earth;
10 Hichepet chun khut khatin eihinthamin chuleh eikai touvin, kihot pum pumin keima jong kakhup tenin ka pansan, ka bung’e.
and behold, a hand has come against me, and shakes me on my knees and the palms of my hands.
11 Chuin mipa chun ka jah’a aseijin, “Daniel nangma Pathen dingin manlutah nahi. Hijeh chun, nahenga kasei ding hohi chingthei tahin ngaijin. Chuleh dingdohin, keima hi nang kom’a eihung kisol ahi,” ati.
And he says to me: Daniel, man greatly desired, attend to the words that I am speaking to you, and stand on your station, for now I have been sent to you. And when he speaks with me this word, I have stood trembling.
12 Chuin aman kajah’a, kicha hih in Daniel. Nangma na Pathen ang sung’a na kineo sah’a, thil hetkhen themna nathum nikho amasapen’a pat’a chu na taona jouse van’a na kingai peh ahitai. Hijeh’a chu keima nahenga hung’a kahi.
And he says to me: Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you gave your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words have been heard, and I have come because of your words.
13 Amavang nisom ni leh nikhat sung chu, Persia leng chapa lhagao gilou chun ka lampia eitingin ahi. Hijeh chun vantil pipu Michael vantil chu eipanhu dingin ahungin, chuleh keiman Michael vantil chu leng chapa lhagao chutoh kidou dingin ka dalha tai.
And the head of the kingdom of Persia is standing in opposition in front of me [for] twenty-one days, and behold, Michael, first of the chief heads, has come to help me, and I have remained there near the kings of Persia;
14 Tua hilaija kahung hi, khonunga namite chunga ipi thil hungsoh ding ham, ti seipeh’a hung kahi. Ajeh chu themgao thilmua namu chengse hi, khonung thil hungsoh ding ngen ahibouve ati.
and I have come to cause you to understand that which happens to your people in the latter end of the days, for yet the vision [is] after days.
15 Aman hitia aseipet chun, keiman tol lang kaven kakunin, thucheng khat jong seidoh theilouvin ka um’e.
And when he speaks with me about these things, I have set my face toward the earth, and have been silent;
16 Chuin mihem tobang khatin, kane teni ahung thamin ahileh, keiman kakam kahinkah tan, chuleh kahung paodoh tai. Hichun kenjong ka masang’a dingpa jah’a chun, “Vo kapu, themgao thilmua mu kaneijeh in, ka pumin kanatlo tan, chuleh kalel lheh jeng tai.”
and behold, as the manner of the sons of men, he is striking against my lips, and I open my mouth, and I speak, and say to him who is standing in opposition in front of me: My lord, by the vision my pangs have been turned against me, and I have retained no power.
17 Kapu, na sohpa keima hitobang bep hi, iti nangtoh ka kihoulim jou ding ham? Ka tha jouse abeitan chuleh kahaina hu jong amangpai ding ahi tai,” kati.
And how is the servant of this my lord able to speak with this my lord? As for me, from now on there remains in me no power, indeed, breath has not been left in me.
18 Chuphat in mihem tobang’a melpupa chun, eihin tham kitin ahileh, ka hung hatdoh kit tai.
And he adds, and strikes against me, as the appearance of a man, and strengthens me,
19 Aman aseijin, “Kicha hihin, ajehchu nangma hi Pathen dinga manlutah nahi. Lungmongin, kitilkhouvin chuleh hattahin pangin,” eiti. Aman hitia asei kajah phatin, apettah chun, ka tha ahung hatdoh tan, amapa jah’a chun, “Kapu, nei lungsetin, thu chu nei seipeh tan, ajeh chu, nangman neihat doh sahkit ahitai,” kati.
and he says: Do not fear, O man greatly desired, peace to you, be strong, indeed, be strong; and when he speaks with me, I have strengthened myself, and I say, Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.
20 Chuin aman eidonbut in, “Ipi bol’a naheng’a hung kahi nahet em? Tua hi, ka kile kit’a, Persia leng chapa lhagao gilou chutoh kisat ding kahi. Chujou tengleh, vetan, Greek leng chapa chu hung ding ahitai.
And he says, Have you known why I have come to you? And now I return to fight with the head of Persia; indeed, I am going forth, and behold, the head of Javan has come;
21 Chuleh keiman thutah lekhabu a kijih chu, nangma kaseipeh ding ahi. Vetan, hiche lhagao gilou ho toh kakidouna-a hin, nangding’a leng chapa Michael vantil tilou, koima eipanhu ding aum poi.”
but I declare to you that which is noted down in the Writing of Truth, and there is not one strengthening himself with me, concerning these, except Michael your head.”
