Daniel 9
1 Babylon mite chunga lenga hungpang, Ahasuerus chapa, Mede mi Darius lengvaipoh kal kumkhat lhin kum chu ahi.
In the first year of Daryavesh the son of Achashyerosh, of Median descent, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans?
2 Ama lengvaipoh kal kum masapen chun, Daniel keiman, Pathen thu kasim’a konin, Jeremiah themgao heng’a Pathenin ana phondohsa bangin, Jerusalem ahom’a akijam khu, kum som sagi sung kichaitei tei ding ahi, ti kahin hedoh tai.
in the first year of his reign I, Daniel, understood from the books the number of the years about which the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah the prophet, for the completion of the desolation of Jerusalem, seventy years.
3 Hijeh chun keiman Pakai Pathen henglam kangan, taona leh thumna toh thon an kangolin chuleh khaodip pon kasilin, vut kakinu khum in ahi.
And I turned to the Lord God, to seek by prayer and petitions, with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
4 Hichun Pakai ka Pathen heng’a ka chonset ka phong’in, keima hitin ka taove. “O Pakai, nangma loupitah leh gin umtah Pathen nahi! Nangman aphat jousen, nangailua chuleh nathupeh nitte chunga, nathutep na molsopehjin chuleh na lungset long louvin na koije.”
I prayed to Jehovah my God, and made this confession, "O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant and loving kindness with those who love him and keep his commandments.
5 Ahivangin, keiho ka chonseuvin, adihlou jeng kaboluve. Keihon nang doumah mah kabolun chuleh na thupeh leh na chondan ho donlouvin kakoi uvin ahi.
We have sinned, and have done what is wrong and wicked, and have rebelled, even turning aside from your commandments and from your ordinances.
6 Keihon nalhacha themgao ho thusei kajahdauvin, nangma thuneina leh namin pan’a ka lengteu leh kapu kappateu, chuleh gamsung mipite jouse henga, themgao ho kam’a naseidoh sah ho donlouvin kakoi tauve.’’
Neither have we listened to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our leaders, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 O Pakai! Dihna chu nanga um ahi. Keiho Judah mite leh Jerusalem’a chengho chuleh gamla leh naiya kithecheh Israel mite jouse dinga, hiche hohi dihsoh kei ahi. Nang douna jeng kabolun, chuleh kitahlou tah’a nang kahou jeh’un, kachennau gamtinah mai jumna katoh tauve.
Lord, righteousness belongs to you, but to us open shame, as at this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, through all the countries where you have driven them, because of their unfaithful deeds that they have committed against you.
8 O Pakai! keiho leh ka lengteu, leng chapate leh milen milal ho chuleh kapu kapateu dinga maijumna dim ahitai. Ajeh chu keiho nangma dounan ka chonse tauvin ahi.
Jehovah, to us belongs open shame, to our kings, to our leaders, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against you.
9 Amavang, keiho ama douna-a ka chonset lheh vangun, Pakai ka Pathen'u chu mi hepina leh ngaidamna dimset ahi jing’e.
To the Lord our God belong compassion and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him.
10 Keihon, ama lhacha themgao ho kam’a ki seidoh danthu hi juilouvin kakoi jun, chuleh Pakai ka Pathen’u thusei kangai tapouve. Ahivangin, ama-ah hepi leh ngaidamna aum jing’e.
And have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
11 Israel pumpi hi, nadanthu juilou ahiuvin, nang’a kon’a kihei mangsoh ahitauve. Na thusei awgin jong angainom louvu ahitai. Hijeh’a chu, Pathen lhacha Mose danbua kisun banga, keiho Pathen douna-a ka chonset jeh’un ka chunguva gosapna leh thutanna chu akibunglha tai.
Yes, all Israel has transgressed your law, and turned away, refusing to obey your voice. Therefore has the curse been poured out on us, and the oath that is written in the Law of Moses the servant of God, for we have sinned against you.
12 Nangman naseisa na petchahin, chuleh naseidohsa bang bangin, keiho leh ka chunguva vaipote chung’a naboltai. Ajeh chu, hitobang’a hamsetna hi leiset pumpia umkha lou ahin, Jerusalem chung’a kibol ahi tai.
He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our rulers who ruled us, by bringing on us a great calamity; for under the whole heaven such has not been done as has been done on Jerusalem.
13 Mose danthu lekhabua kisun gaosapna hijat pihi, ka chunguva ahunglhung tan ahi. Ahivangin, keihon ka chonsetnau kadalha nompouve. Chuleh Pakai ka Pathen’u henga jong ahepina ka holdeh pouvin, Pakai dihna hepha louvin kaum tauve.
As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this calamity has come on us. Yet have we not tried to gain the favor of Jehovah our God, that we should turn from our iniquities, and have discernment in your truth.
14 Hijeh chun Pakaiyin agonsa bangin, keiho chung’a hamsetna alhunsah tai. Amavang, ka Pathenuvin hitia abol jeng hi, adihtah chu abol ahi. Ajeh chu, ama thusei ho keihon kangaitapouve.
Therefore has Jehovah watched over the calamity, and brought it on us, for Jehovah our God is just in all he has done, and we have not obeyed his voice.
15 O Pakai, ka Pathen’u, nangman Egypt gam’a kon’in namite keiho, na thahat loupitah chun neihin huhdohuvin chuleh namin jong loupitah leh gin umtah in n koi tai. Ahivang in, keiho gitlouna dimsetin ka chonse jo tauve.
"And now, Lord our God, who has brought your people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and have made a name for yourself, even to this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 O Pakai, nangman na kitahna leh na hepina jal chun, Jerusalem khopi leh nalhang theng chunga nalung hanna hi, lungset tahin heimang in. Ajeh chu kapu ka pateu chonset jeh leh keiho chonset jeh'in, kaveluva cheng namdang hon nuisat leh seichahin eikoi tauve.
Lord, according to all your righteousness, let your anger and please let your wrath be turned away from your city Jerusalem, your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a reproach to all who are around us.
17 O ka Pathen’u, nasohpa ka taona hi, nei ngaipeh inlang nei sanpeh tan! O Pakai, nang leh nang kigelkhohna jal’in, na dalhahsa muntheng hi, mailhaiselin namaivah chun hin salvah kit tan.
Now therefore, our God, listen to the prayer of your servant, and to his petitions, and cause your face to shine on your sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.
18 O ka Pathen, hungkun inlang neihin ngaipeh in. Namit hin hasah inlang keiho gim hesohna hi hinven. Namin pua nakhopi jong hinvetan, mangthah in aum tai. Tun, ka taonau hi, keiho ka themnau leh nalung kato jeh’uva nei sanpeh diu hipon tin, na milungset na leh na mihepina jal’a bou na heng’a ka hung taovu ahijoi.
My God, turn your ear, and hear; open your eyes, and see our desolation, and the city which is called by your name. For we do not present our petitions before you for our righteousness, but for your great mercy.
19 O Pakai ngaijin, O Pakai ngaidam in! O Pakai gelkhoh inlang bol jengin. O ka Pathen, nang leh nang kigelkhoh inlang, khongai sot tahih in. Ajeh chu, namite leh nakhopi hi, nangma minpua kikou cheh ahiuve.
Lord, hear. Lord, forgive. Lord, listen and take action. Do not delay, for your own sake, my God, because your city and your people are called by your name."
20 Keima katao jingin, keima chonset leh kamite chonset ka phongin, Jerusalem khopi leh ama lhangtheng’a dingin, Pakai ka Pathen heng’a thumna kaneiyin ahi.
While I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my petition before Jehovah my God for the holy mountain of my God,
21 Hitia katao jing petin, gaothilmua kamu masah Gabriel chu, kaheng’a ahung kilahin, hichu nilhah lang kilhaina thilto bolphat tah ahi.
while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, came to me in my weariness about the time of the evening sacrifice.
22 Hichun, Gabriel chun keima heng’a asei tai. “Daniel na lungsung mitvah sah ding leh thil hetkhenna nape dinga nakom’a hung kahi.”
He instructed me, and talked with me, and said, "Daniel, I have now come forth to give you wisdom and understanding.
23 Nangma Pathen heng’a na hungtao kipat chun, thupeh khat ahung um doh tai. Hichu ipi ahi nahil dinga tua hi kahung ahi. Nangma Pathen dingin manlutah nahi. Hijeh chun, themgao thilmua namu chengse hi, ipi kiseina ham, na hetkhen themna dingin, phatechan ngaijin.
At the beginning of your petitions the commandment went forth, and I have come to tell you, for you are greatly loved. Therefore consider the matter, and understand the vision.
24 Namite leh nakhopi theng hi, thilsea kon lhadoh nading, achonset na’u suhbei nading, athemmona’u thoidam nading, chuleh muntheng chungnung’a thaonu kinbol nading, phat chu, hapta somsagi mun sagi, Pathenin atepsa ahi tai.
Seventy weeks are decreed on your people and on your holy city, to put an end to the transgression, and to make an end to sin, and to atone for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy place.
25 Hiche hi ngaijin lang kihettem in! Jerusalem semphat ding kiseidoh’a pat, Pathen thaonu khat vaihom ding hungdoh ding geihi, hapta sagi mun sagi toh hapta somgupleni mun sagi, lhing ding ahi. Chutah leh Jerusalem kisapha-a, kholai lamlen holeh kulpi pal dettah a kisempha ding. Hiche phatsung hi gim hesohna khang hi ding ahi.
Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem until the time of the Messiah, the Prince, there shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks. It shall be built again, with open spaces and a moat, but in times of distress.
26 Hiche phatsung, hapta somgupleni mun sagi, kichaijou tengleh, Pathen thaonusa mipa chu, boldoh ima neilouva kipaidoh ding ahi. Chuleh mikhat hung lendoh’a vai ahom ding, chuleh amiten khopi leh muntheng asuhmang dingu ahi. Chuteng achaina chu twisoh bang’a hung um ding, chuleh gal hesoh gentheina chu, Pathen tepsa banga achaina geija um ding ahi.
After the sixty-two weeks the Messiah shall be cut off, and shall have nothing. And the people of a ruler who shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and his end shall come with a flood, and until the end there shall be war; desolations are decreed.
27 Chuleh vaihompa chun, hapta khatsung ding’a mi tamtah toh, kitepna abol ding, hiche hapta kehkhat jouleh, aman kilhaina thilto ho asuh hai ding ahi. Amapa khansetna chunga, achaina Pathen thutepsa chu twi sunna akisunlhah kahsea, aman thil thet umtah asem doh’a chuleh khopi sugam’a pang ding ahi.
He shall make a firm covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease. And on the wing of abominations shall come one who destroys, and even until a complete destruction, until the decreed end is poured out on the one who destroys."
