Daniel 10
1 E higa mar adek mar loch Sairas ruodh Pasia, nonyis Daniel (ma bende iluongo ni Belteshazar) tiend fwenyno mane oseneno. Wachno ne en adier, kendo ne en kuom lweny moro maduongʼ! Tiend wachno nobirone e fweny.
In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing is true, but the appointed time of trial is long; and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.
2 E kindeno, an Daniel, noyudo akuyo kuom jumbe adek,
In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks:
3 ka ok acham chiemo moro amora moa e od ruoth bende ringʼo kata divai ne ok donji e dhoga, kendo ne ok awirora gi mo moro amora nyaka jumbe adekgo norumo.
I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine into my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three full weeks were fulfilled.
4 Tarik piero ariyo gangʼwen mar dwe mokwongo, kane oyudo achungʼ e geng aora maduongʼ ma Tigris,
And on the four-and-twentieth day of the first month, I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel:
5 ne atingʼo wangʼa kendo e nyima kanyo naneno ngʼato morwako law mayom, kendo notweyo kamba molos gi dhahabu malerie mogik e nungone.
and I lifted up mine eyes and looked, and behold, a certain man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with pure gold of Uphaz;
6 Dende nechalo gi kidi ma nengone tek miluongo ni krisolit, lela wangʼe ne chalo gi mil polo, to wengene ne mil ka mach makakni, bedene gi tiendene ne mil ka mula morudhi maler, kendo dwonde ne chalo gi dwond oganda maduongʼ.
and his body was like a chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet as the look of burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
7 An Daniel kenda ema naneno fwenyno joma ne ni koda to ne ok onene, kata kamano luoro maduongʼ nomakogi mi negitony gi ngʼwech mi gipondo.
And I Daniel alone saw the vision; and the men that were with me saw not the vision, but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves.
8 Omiyo ne adongʼ kenda, ka angʼiyo fweny maduongʼni; tekra norumo, lela wangʼa notwo ka gima atho, kendo nanyosora marumo.
And I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; and my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
9 Bangʼe nawinje kowuoyo, mine achikone ita; nindo matut notera, kendo napodho piny auma.
And I heard the voice of his words; and when I heard the voice of his words, I fell into a deep stupor on my face, and my face to the ground.
10 Lwedo moro nomula, mi nomiyo tiendena gi bedena ochako tetni.
And behold, a hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and the palms of my hands.
11 Nowachona niya, “Daniel, in ngʼat ma Nyasaye ogeno ahinya, aa malo kendo par matut kuom weche ma adwaro nyisigi, nikech koro oseora iri.” To ka nowachona kamano, nachungʼ malo ka atetni.
And he said unto me, O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words which I speak unto thee, and stand upright; for unto thee am I now sent. And as he spoke this word unto me, I stood trembling.
12 Nomedo wachona ni, Daniel, kik iluor. Odiechiengʼ mane ichake keto chunyi mar winjo tiend wachni, kendo kane ibolori e nyim Nyasachi, ema wechegi ne owinjie, kendo koro asebiro mondo akelni dwoko margi.
And he said unto me, Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come because of thy words.
13 Makmana pinyruodh Pasia nogengʼona kuom ndalo piero ariyo gachiel. Eka bangʼe Mikael, ma en achiel kuom malaike madongo, nobiro mondo okonya, nikech ruodh Pasia ogengʼona.
But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
14 Omiyo asebiro mondo alerni tiend gima biro timore ne jou, nimar fweny misenenono wuoyo kuom gik mabiro timore e ndalo mabiro.
And I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people at the end of the days: for the vision is yet for [many] days.
15 Kane oyudo owachona wachni ne akulo wiya piny, kendo dhoga nomoko.
And as he was speaking with me according to these words, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.
16 Eka ngʼat moro machalo dhano nomulo dhoga, mi nayawo dhoga kendo nachako wuoyo. Ne awachone ngʼama nochungʼ e nyima niya, “Ruodha, chandruok oromo chunya nikech fweny ma aseneno, kendo anyosora marumo.
And behold, one after the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips; and I opened my mouth and spoke, and said unto him that stood before me, My lord, by reason of the vision my pains are turned upon me, and I retain no strength.
17 Ere kaka an, jatichni, dawuo kodi, in, ruodha? Tekra orumo kendo kata yweyo otama.”
And how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remaineth no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
18 Eka ngʼatno nochako omula kendo mi omiya teko.
Then there touched me again one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me;
19 Nowachona niya, “We luor, yaye in ngʼat ma Nyasaye ogeno ahinya. Bed gi kwe! Yud teko sani, bed motegno.” Ne ayudo teko e sa mane owuoyoe kodano, kendo nawacho niya, “Ruodha, wuo awuoya, nikech koro iseduogona teko.”
and he said, Fear not, man greatly beloved; peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And as he was speaking with me I was strengthened, and I said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.
20 Nowachona niya, “Bende ingʼeyo gimomiyo asebiro iri? Onego adogi ma ok adeko mondo aked gi ruodh Pasia, to ka asedhi, ruodh jo-Yunani biro biro;
And he said, Knowest thou wherefore I am come unto thee? And now I return to fight with the prince of Persia; and when I go forth, behold, the prince of Greece shall come.
21 to mokwongo, abiro nyisi gima ondiki e Kitabu mar Adiera. (Onge ngʼama osebedo ka konya kedo kod ruodhigo makmana Mikael malaika ma jarit piny.
However, I will declare unto thee that which is set down in the scripture of truth; and there is not one that sheweth himself strong with me against these, but Michael your prince.
