Daniel 11

1 Medes siangpahrang, Darius a bawinae a kum pasuek navah, a uknaeram caksak hane hoi thao sak nahanelah ka kampangkhai.

And I in the first year of Cyrus stood to strengthen and confirm [him].

2 Atuteh, katang e ka dei han toe. Persia ram ka uk hane siangpahrang kathum touh a tâco han rah. Apalinae siangpahrang teh ahnimanaw hlak hoe a tawnta han. Hottelah a tawnta thai teh, a tha ao dawkvah, Grik ram tuk hanelah tamipueng a hroecoe han.

And now I will tell you the truth. Behold, there shall yet rise up three kings in Persia: and the fourth shall be very far richer than all: and after that he is master of his wealth, he shall rise up against all the kingdoms of the Greeks.

3 Hatnavah, athakaawme siangpahrang buet touh a tâco han. Ahni ni kâtawnnae hoi uk vaiteh, a ngai e patetlah a sak han.

An there shall rise up a mighty king, and he shall be lord of a great empire, and shall do according to his will.

4 Ahni a tâco hnukkhu hoi a ram rawk vaiteh, pali touh lah a kârei awh han. Hatei, ka ukkungnaw teh a catounnaw nahoeh, kâtawnnae hoi a uknaeram thung e nahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a ram teh a kâbawng toung dawkvah, ayânaw poe lah ao han.

And when his kingdom shall stand up, it shall be broken, and shall be divided to the four winds of heaven; but not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled over: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, and [given] to others beside these.

5 Hat toteh, akalae siangpahrang teh a thao han. Hatei, a bawinae thung dawk buet touh teh ahni hlak a tha awm vaiteh, amae ram hah kalen e bahu hoi a uk han.

And the king of the south shall be strong; and one of their princes shall prevail against him, and shall obtain a great dominion.

6 Atueng a saw toteh, huiko a kâsak awh han. A kâpo awh nahanlah akalae siangpahrang canu teh atunglae siangpahrang koe kâtawnnae a poe han. Hatei, hote napui e kâtawnnae teh cak mahoeh. Hote siangpahrang hoi a catoun hai cak mahoeh. Siangpahrang canu hai, ahni ka thak e naw hai, ahnie canaw hai, hatnae tueng nah ahni kabawm e naw hai, thei hanlah ao han.

And after his years they shall associate; and the daughter of the king of the south shall come to the king of the north, to make agreements with him: but she shall not retain power of arm; neither shall his seed stand: and she shall be delivered up, and they that brought her, and the maiden, and he that strengthened her in these times.

7 Hote siangpahrang canu e miphun dawk e buet touh ni ahnie hmuen dawk a kangdue han. Ahni ni atunglae siangpahrang hah tuk vaiteh, khothung kâen vaiteh, khocanaw hah a tuk vaiteh a tâ han.

[But] out of the flower of her root there shall arise [one on] his place, and shall come against the host, and shall enter into the strongholds of the king of the north, and shall fight against them, and prevail.

8 Ahnimae cathutnaw, hlun e meikaphawknaw, aphu kaawm e sui manang, ngunnaw hah Izip ram lah be aphu awh han. Atunglae siangpahrang hlak akalae siangpahrang teh a kum bet a saw han.

Yes, he shall carry with a body of captives into Egypt their gods with their molten [images, and] all their precious vessels of silver and gold; and he shall last longer than the king of the north.

9 Atunglae siangpahrang hai akalae siangpahrang uknaeram thung a kâen han. Hatei, ama ram lah bout a ban han.

And he shall enter into the kingdom of the king of the south, and shall return to his own land.

10 A capanaw ni bout thaw awh vaiteh, ransanaw moikapap kamkhueng sak vaiteh a tho awh han. Tâ awh vaiteh, ahnie kho thung totouh runae a poe awh han.

And his sons shall gather a multitude amongst many: and one shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through, and he shall rest, and collect his strength.

11 Akalae siangpahrang teh a lungkhuek dawkvah, atunglae siangpahrang hah a tuk han. Hatei, tami moikapap hah a taran kut dawk a poe han.

And the king of the south shall be greatly enraged, and shall come forth, and shall war with the king of the north: and he shall raise a great multitude; but the multitude shall be delivered into his hand.

12 Tami moikapap a ceikhai awh toteh, kâoup vaiteh, a thong moikapap ka thet nakunghai, kâ a tawnnae cak mahoeh.

And he shall take the multitude, and his heart shall be exalted; and he shall cast down many thousands; but he shall not prevail.

13 Bangkongtetpawiteh, atunglae siangpahrang bout thaw vaiteh, ahmaloe e hlak kapap e taminaw hah pâkhueng vaiteh, kum nâyittouh ne a ro torei ransanaw hoi senehmaica hoi a tho awh han.

For the king of the north shall return, and bring a multitude greater than the former, and at the end of the times of years an invading army shall come with a great force, and with much substance.

14 Hatnae tueng dawkvah, akalae siangpahrang ka taran e apap han. Na miphunnaw thung dawk e tapungnaw ni vision akuep nahanelah thaw awh vaiteh, rawknae koe a pha awh han.

And in those times many shall rise up against the king of the south; and the children of the spoilers of your people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; and they shall fail.

15 Atunglae siangpahrang ni tho vaiteh kho rapannaw sak awh vaiteh, kacaklah kâkalup e khonaw hah a tuk awh han. Akalae senehmaica thaonae ni ngang thai mahoeh, hmoun e ransanaw ni hai ngang thai nahanelah tha tawn awh mahoeh.

And the king of the north shall come in, and cast up a mound, and take strong cities: and the arms of the king of the south shall withstand, and his chosen ones shall rise up, but there shall be no strength to stand.

16 Ka tuk e niteh, amahmawk a tuk dawkvah, ahnie hmalah apihai kangdout thai hoeh. Ram kahawi hah raphoe vaiteh, ka lentoe e ram lah a kangdue sak han.

And he that comes in against him shall do according to his will, and there is no one to stand before him: and he shall stand in the land of beauty, and it shall be consumed by his hand.

17 A uknaeram buemlah thaonae hoi a kâen hanlah a kâcai teh, akalae siangpahrang hoi kâhuiko hanelah a sak han. A canu poe e lahoi raphoe hanelah a kâcai eiteh, a pouknae patetlah awm hoeh. Banghai cungkeinae awm hoeh.

And he shall set his face to come in with the force of his whole kingdom, and shall cause everything to prosper with him: and he shall give him the daughter of women to corrupt her: but she shall not continue, neither be on his side.

18 Hahoi, tuilumnaw koe lah kamlang vaiteh, tuilumnaw hah a tuk han. Hatei, ransabawi buet touh ni min mathoenae a dei e hah, katukkungnaw koe letlang a bo sak han.

And he shall turn his face to the islands, and shall take many, and cause princes to cease from their reproach: nevertheless his own reproach shall return to him.

19 Hote bawi hai ama kho bout a ban hnukkhu a kamthui teh, a rawp teh a kahma.

Then he shall turn back his face to the strength of his own land: but he shall become weak, and fall, and not be found.

20 Hote bawi e hmuen dawk tami buet touh sungren poung e uknaeram dawk, tamuk ka cawng e a kangdue han. Hatei, taran tuknae lungkhueknae dawk hoi laipalah, a kahma han.

And there shall arise out of his root one that shall cause a plant of the kingdom to pass over his place, earning kingly glory: and yet in those days shall he be broken, yet not openly, nor in war.

21 Ahnie hmuen dawk yuemkamcu hoeh e, bari kaawm hoeh e, dudam kamcu e tami a tâco han. Ahni ni tânae lahoi laipalah pasawtpanepnae lahoi uknaeram hah a la han.

[One] shall stand on his place, [who] has been set a nothing, and they have not put upon him the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in prosperously, and obtain the kingdom by deceitful ways.

22 A hmalah kaawm e naw teh, tui kalen thaonae lahoi pâyo sak lah ao vaiteh, koung a rawk awh han. Lawkkam e bawi hai a rawk han.

And the arms of him that overflows shall be washed away as with a flood from before him, and shall be broken, and [so shall be] the head of the covenant.

23 Bangkongtetpawiteh, lawk ka kam e bawi teh, lawkkam a raphoe dawkvah, tami younca hoi a tho eiteh, a tha ao han.

And because of the leagues made with him he shall work deceit: and he shall come up, and overpower them with a small nation.

24 Ram kahawi dawk tuk laipalah a kâen han. Lawp e hnopainaw hah ayânaw a rei han. Mintoenaw ni patenghai a sak awh boihoeh e hah a sak han. Kacakpounge kho rapanimnaw hah lawp hanelah kasawlah a kâpouk han.

And he shall enter with prosperity, and [that] into fertile districts; and he shall do what his fathers and his fathers' fathers have not done; he shall scatter amongst them plunder, and spoils, and wealth; and he shall devise plans against Egypt, even for a time.

25 Puenghoi kapap e ransanaw hoi, akalae siangpahrang hah tuk vaiteh, amahoima thaonae hah a hroecoe han. Akalae siangpahrang ni hai moikapap ni teh athakaawme ransanaw hoi taran tuk hanlah a kâhroecoe awh ei, ngang thai awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kahawihoehe pouknae a tawn awh han.

And his strength and his heart shall be stirred up against the king of the south with a great force; and the king of the south shall engage in war with a great and very strong force; but [his forces] shall not stand, for they shall devise plans against him:

26 Siangpahrang koe kacatnetnaw ni ama tuk hanlah, letlang a kâcai awh. Hatei, a ransanaw teh, be kahmat vaiteh, tarankâtuknae koe tami moi a due awh han.

and they shall eat his provisions, and shall crush him, and he shall carry away armies as with a flood, and many shall fall down slain.

27 Hote siangpahrang roi teh kahawihoehe pouknae a tawn roi teh, caboi buet touh koe laithoe a dei roi han. Hatei, a pouknae coung pouh mahoeh. A pouknae teh khoe tangcoung e a tue dawk ka phat mingming han.

And [as for] both the kings, their hearts [are set] upon mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper; for yet the end is for a [fixed] time.

28 Hahoi atunglae siangpahrang teh hnopai moikapap hoi ama ram lah a ban navah, kathounge lawkkamnae hah tarannae lungthin a tawn e patetlah a sak vaiteh, ama ram lah bout a ban han.

And he shall return to his land with much substance; and his heart [shall be] against the holy covenant; and he shall perform [great deeds], and return to his own land.

29 Khoe e tueng dawk bout ban vaiteh, akalah bout a tho han. Hatei, ahmaloe e patetlah nahoeh. A hnukkhu e patetlah hai nahoeh.

At the [set] time he shall return, and shall come into the south, but the last [expedition] shall [not] be as the first.

30 Bangtelane tetpawiteh, Kittim longnaw ni ahni tuk hanlah a tho awh han. Hatdawkvah puenghoi a lungpataw teh, lungkhuek laihoi bawkim kathoung tuk hanelah bout tho vaiteh, rawknae hah a sak han. Hottelah lawkkam kathoung katapoenaw hoi a kâhuiko awh han.

For the Citians issuing forth shall come against him, and he shall be brought low, and shall return, and shall be incensed against the holy covenant: and he shall do [thus], and shall return, and have intelligence with them that have forsaken the holy covenant.

31 Ransanaw ni tuk pouh vaiteh, kathounge hmuen hah a khin sak awh han. A hnintangkuem sak e thuengnae hah takhoe awh vaiteh, panuetthopounge rawknae kathokhaikung hah a pâhung awh han.

And seeds shall spring up out of him, and they shall profane the sanctuary of strength, and they shall remove the perpetual [sacrifice], and make the abomination desolate.

32 Lawkkam ka taran e naw teh lawk dei thoumnae lahoi a rawk awh han. Hatei, Cathut ka panuek e taminaw teh thasainae hoi hno a sak thai awh han.

And the transgressors shall bring about a covenant by deceitful ways: but a people knowing their God shall prevail, and do [valiantly].

33 Taminaw thung dawk a lungkaangnaw ni tami kapapnaw teh a cangkhai awh han. Hatei, hnin kasawlah tahloi hoi theinae, hmaisawinae, san lah mannae, lawpnae hoi a rawp awh han.

And the intelligent of the people shall understand much: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, and by captivity, and by spoil of [many] days.

34 A rawp awh toteh, kabawpnae youn touh bout a coe awh han. Taminaw teh lawk dei thoumnae koe a kâbang awh han.

And when they are weak they shall be helped with a little help: but many shall attach themselves to them with treachery.

35 A lungkaang e tami tangawn hai a rawp awh han, a thoung awh teh, toun hoeh nahanlah poutnae tueng totouh a sak han. Hot hateh, atueng khoe e totouh hane doeh.

And [some] of them that understand shall fall, to try them as with fire, and to test [them], and that they may be manifested at the time of the end, for the matter [is] yet for a [set] time.

36 Siangpahrang buet touh teh, amamouh ni a ngai e patetlah a sak han, cathutnaw pueng hlak kâtawmrasang vaiteh, cathutnaw e Cathut hah a taran han. Dudamnae lawk a dei han. Lungkhueknae akuep hoehroukrak a tâ han. Pouk tangcoung e patetlah sak roeroe han.

And he shall do according to his will, and the king shall exalt and magnify himself against every god, and shall speak great swelling words, and shall prosper until the indignation shall be accomplished: for it is coming to an end.

37 Ahni teh mintoenaw e Cathut hai, napui ngainae hai, alouke cathutnaw hai banglahai noutna hoeh. Tami pueng hlak amahoima a kâtawmrasang han.

And he shall not regard any gods of his fathers, nor the desire of women, neither shall he regard any deity: for he shall magnify himself above all.

38 Hote cathutnaw e hmuen dawk, rapan cathut, mintoenaw ni panue hoeh e cathut hah tawm vaiteh, sui, ngun, talung, ngai kaawm e hnonaw hah a thueng han.

And he shall honour the god of forces on his place: and a god whom his fathers knew not he shall honour with gold, and silver, and precious stones, and desirable things.

39 Kacake rapannaw hai, Jentelnaw e cathut hai sak vaiteh, a bawilennae apung sak han. Taminaw uknaeram kâ poelah awm vaiteh, tawnta nahanlah talai hah a kârei awh han.

And he shall do [thus] in the strong places of refuge with a strange god, and shall increase his glory: and he shall subject many to them, and shall distribute the land in gifts.

40 Atueng poutnae tueng nah, akalae siangpahrang ni ahni hah a tuk han. Atunglae siangpahrang nihai, ranglengnaw, marangnaw, marangransanaw, longnaw hoi bongparui patetlah tho awh vaiteh, hote ram hah reprep a coungroe han.

And at the end of the time he shall conflict with the king of the south: and the king of the north shall come against him with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and they shall enter into the land: and he shall break in pieces, and pass on:

41 Khet kahawi e ram dawk hai a kâen awh han. Ram moikapap a lawp awh han. Hatei, Edom ram, Moab hoi Amon kahrawikungnaw teh ahnie kut dawk hoi a hlout awh han.

and he shall enter into the land of beauty, and many shall fail: but these shall escape out of his hand, Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.

42 Ram pueng dawk a ram pakaw vaiteh, Izip ram hai hlout mahoeh.

And he shall stretch forth [his] hand over the land; and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

43 Hote ram dawk kaawm e sui, ngun, aphu kaawm e hnonaw hah a la han. Libianaw hoi, Ethiopianaw hai ahni hnuk a kâbang awh han.

And he shall have the mastery over the secret [treasures] of gold and silver, and over all the desirable [possessions] of Egypt, and of the Libyans and Ethiopians in their strongholds.

44 Hatei, kanîtho lahoi, atunglah hoi kamthang a thai navah a lungpuen teh, tami moikapap thei hanelah puenghoi lungkhuek lahoi a tho han.

But rumours and anxieties out of the east and from the north shall trouble him; and he shall come with great wrath to destroy many.

45 Tuipui rahak vah ka lentoe niteh, kathounge mon dawk o nahan im a sak teh, kabawmkung awm laipalah, rawknae koe a pha han.

And he shall pitch the tabernacle of his palace between the seas in the holy mountain of beauty: [but] he shall come to his portion, and there is none to deliver him.
