Daniel 9
1 Prve godine Darija, sina Artakserksova, iz roda Medijaca, koji vladaše kraljevstvom kaldejskim,
In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans,
2 prve dakle godine njegova kraljevanja, ja, Daniel, istraživah u Pismima broj godina koje se - prema riječi koju Jahve uputi proroku Jeremiji - imaju ispuniti nad ruševinama Jeruzalema: sedamdeset godina.
in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, understood by the books the number of the years of which the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah the prophet, for the accomplishing of the desolations of Jerusalem, even seventy years.
3 Ja obratih svoje lice prema Gospodinu Bogu nastojeći moliti se i zaklinjati u postu, kostrijeti i pepelu.
And I set my face to the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
4 Ja se moljah Jahvi, Bogu svome, priznavajući: “Ah, Gospodine moj, Bože veliki i strahoviti, koji čuvaš Savez i naklonost onima koji tebe ljube i čuvaju zapovijedi tvoje!
And I prayed to Jehovah my God, and made confession, and said, Oh, Lord, the great and fearful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness with those who love him and keep his commandments,
5 Mi sagriješismo, mi bezakonje počinismo, zlo učinismo, odmetnusmo se i udaljismo od zapovijedi i naredaba tvojih.
we have sinned, and have dealt perversely, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even turning aside from thy precepts and from thine ordinances,
6 Nismo slušali sluge tvoje, proroke koji govorahu u tvoje ime našim kraljevima, našim knezovima, našim očevima, svemu puku zemlje.
nor have we hearkened to thy servants the prophets, who spoke in thy name to our kings, our rulers, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 U tebe je, Gospodine, pravednost, a u nas stid na obrazu, kao u ovaj dan, u nas Judejaca, Jeruzalemaca, svega Izraela, blizu i daleko, u svim zemljama kuda si ih rastjerao zbog nevjernosti kojom ti se iznevjeriše.
O Lord, righteousness belongs to thee, but to us confusion of face, 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 thou have driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.
8 Jahve, stid na obraz nama, našim kraljevima, našim knezovima, našim očevima, jer sagriješismo protiv tebe!
O Lord, to us belongs confusion of face, to our kings, to our rulers, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
9 U Gospoda je Boga našega smilovanje i oproštenje jer smo se odmetnuli od njega
To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him,
10 i nismo slušali glas Jahve, Boga našega, da slijedimo njegove zakone što nam ih dade po svojim slugama, prorocima.
nor have we obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
11 Sav je Izrael prestupio Zakon tvoj, odmetnuo se ne slušajući tvoj glas. Zato se na nas izlila kletva i prokletstvo, kako je zapisano u Zakonu Mojsija, sluge Božjega - jer sagriješismo protiv Njega.
Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even turning aside, that they should not obey thy voice. Therefore the curse has been poured out upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God. For we have sinned against him.
12 Izvršio je prijetnje kojima je zaprijetio nama i sucima koji su nam sudili: svalio je na nas tešku nesreću te se ne dogodi pod nebom što se dogodi u Jeruzalemu.
And he has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our judges who judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil, for under the whole heaven has not been done as has been done upon Jerusalem.
13 Sva ova nesreća, kao što je zapisano u Zakonu Mojsijevu, došla je na nas, a mi nismo umilostivili lice Jahve, Boga svojega: nismo se obratili od svojih bezakonja pa da prionemo uz istinu tvoju.
As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil has come upon us. Yet we have not entreated the favor of Jehovah our God, that we should turn from our iniquities, and have discernment in thy truth.
14 Jahve je bdio nad nesrećom, on je dovede na nas. Jer je pravedan Jahve, Bog naš, u svim djelima koja učini, a mi nismo slušali glas njegov.
Therefore Jehovah has watched over the evil, and brought it upon us, for Jehovah our God is righteous in all his works which he does, and we have not obeyed his voice.
15 A sada, Gospode, Bože naš, koji si moćnom svojom rukom izveo narod svoj iz zemlje egipatske - i time sebi stekao ime koje traje do danas: mi sagriješismo, mi zlo učinismo.
And now, O Lord our God, who has brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and has gotten thee renown, as at this day, we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 Gospode, po svoj pravednosti svojoj odvrati svoj gnjev i svoju jarost od Jeruzalema, grada svojega, Svete gore svoje, jer zbog naših grijeha i zlodjela naših otaca Jeruzalem i tvoj narod ruglo su svima koji nas okružuju.”
O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, let thine anger and thy wrath, I pray thee, be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain. Because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people have become a reproach to all who are round about us.
17 “A sada poslušaj, o Bože naš, molitvu sluge svoga i usrdne molbe njegove. Neka tvoje lice zasja nad svetištem tvojim opustošenim - zbog tebe, Gospode!
Now therefore, O our God, hearken to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.
18 Prikloni uho svoje, Bože moj, i slušaj! Otvori oči te pogledaj našu pustoš i grad koji se tvojim zove imenom! Jer mi te ne molimo zbog svoje pravednosti, već zbog velikih smilovanja tvojih.
O my God, incline thine ear, and hear. Open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name. For we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousness, but for thy great mercies' sake.
19 Gospode, čuj! Gospode, oprosti! Gospode, poslušaj i čini! Ne oklijevaj - zbog sebe, Bože moj, jer se tvojim imenom zove grad tvoj i narod tvoj!”
O Lord, hear. O Lord, forgive. O Lord, hearken and do. Defer not, for thine own sake, O my God, because thy city and thy people are called by thy name.
20 Ja sam još govorio, moleći se i priznavajući grijehe svoje i grijehe svog naroda Izraela i usrdno zaklinjući Jahvu, svoga Boga, za Svetu goru Boga svoga.
And while I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before Jehovah my God for the holy mountain of my God,
21 Dok sam dakle ja još govorio moleći se, onaj čovjek Gabriel, koga vidjeh na početku viđenja, doletje u brzu letu, dotače me se u vrijeme večernjeg prinosa
yea, while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
22 i pouči me: “Daniele, evo me: dođoh da te poučim.
And he instructed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I have now come forth to give thee wisdom and understanding.
23 Od početka tvoje molitve izišla je riječ, i ja dođoh da ti je navijestim. Ti si miljenik. Pazi dobro na riječ, razumij viđenje.”
At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment went forth, and I have come to tell thee, for thou are greatly beloved. Therefore consider the matter, and understand the vision.
24 “Sedamdeset je sedmica određeno tvom narodu i tvom svetom gradu da se dokrajči opačina, da se stavi pečat grijehu, da se zadovolji za bezakonje, da se uvede vječna pravednost, da se stavi pečat viđenju i prorocima, da se pomaže Sveti nad svetima.
Seventy weeks are decreed upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy.
25 Znaj i razumij: Od časa kad izađe riječ 'Neka se vrate i neka opet sagrade Jeruzalem' pa do Kneza Pomazanika: sedam sedmica, a onda šezdeset i dvije sedmice, i bit će opet sagrađeni trg i opkop, i to u teško vrijeme.
Know therefore and discern, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem to the anointed one, the Prince, shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks. It shall be built again, with street and moat, even in troublesome times.
26 A poslije šezdeset i dvije sedmice bit će Pomazanik pogubljen, ali ne za sebe. Narod jednog kneza koji će doći razorit će Grad i Svetište: svršetak im je u propasti, a do svršetka rat i određena pustošenja.
And after the sixty-two weeks the anointed one shall be cut off, and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary, and the end of it shall be with a flood. And even to the end shall be war; desolations are determined.
27 I sklopit će savez s mnogima za jednu sedmicu: a u polovici sedmice prestat će žrtva i prinos: na vrhu Hrama bit će grozota pustoši sve do svršetka, dok se određeno pustošenje ne obori na pustošnika.”
And 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 oblation to cease. And upon the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate. And even to the full end, and that determined, wrath shall be poured out upon the desolate.
