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 matter, was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and faithful was the matter, but [concerned] a great warfare, and he marked the word, and had understanding in the revelation.
2 E kindeno, an Daniel, noyudo akuyo kuom jumbe adek,
In those days, I, Daniel, was mourning three sevens of days:
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.
food to delight in, did I not eat, neither flesh nor wine, came into my mouth, nor did I so much as, anoint, myself, —until were fulfilled three sevens of days.
4 Tarik piero ariyo gangʼwen mar dwe mokwongo, kane oyudo achungʼ e geng aora maduongʼ ma Tigris,
And, on the twenty-fourth day of the first month, —when, I, was by the side of the great river, the same, is Tigris,
5 ne atingʼo wangʼa kendo e nyima kanyo naneno ngʼato morwako law mayom, kendo notweyo kamba molos gi dhahabu malerie mogik e nungone.
then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and lo! a man, clothed in linen, —whose loins, were girded with the bright 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.
whose body, was like Tarshish-stone, and, his face, like the appearance of lightning, and, his eyes, were like torches of fire, and, his arms and his feet, like the look of bronze burnished, —and, the sound of his words, was like the sound 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, beheld the revelation, and, the men who were with me, beheld not the revelation, —in truth, a great terror, had fallen upon them, and they had fled while hiding themselves.
8 Omiyo ne adongʼ kenda, ka angʼiyo fweny maduongʼni; tekra norumo, lela wangʼa notwo ka gima atho, kendo nanyosora marumo.
I, therefore, was left alone, and beheld this great revelation, and there remained in me no strength, —but, my freshness, was turned upon me into disfigurement, and I retained no strength.
9 Bangʼe nawinje kowuoyo, mine achikone ita; nindo matut notera, kendo napodho piny auma.
So then I heard the sound of his words, —and, when I heard the sound of his words, then, I myself, came to be in a deep sleep upon my face, with, my face, to the earth.
10 Lwedo moro nomula, mi nomiyo tiendena gi bedena ochako tetni.
And lo! a hand, touched me; and roused me up on 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.
Then said he unto me, O Daniel! man greatly delighted in! have understanding in the words which, I, am about to speak unto thee, and stand up where thou art, for, now, have I been sent unto thee. And, when he had spoken with me this word, I stood up 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.
Then said he unto me, Do not fear, 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, by reason 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 ruler of the kingdom of Persia, withstood me twenty-one days, but lo! Michael, one of the chief rulers, came in to help me, —and, I, left him there, beside 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.
So then I am come to let thee understand that which shall befall thy people in the afterpart of the days, —for yet is the vision for [those] days.
15 Kane oyudo owachona wachni ne akulo wiya piny, kendo dhoga nomoko.
And, when he had spoken with me such words as these, —I set my face towards the earth, and was 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.
Then lo! like the similitude of the sons of men, one was touching my lips, —so I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him who was standing before me, O my lord! By the revelation, my pains have seized me, and I retain no strength.
17 Ere kaka an, jatichni, dawuo kodi, in, ruodha? Tekra orumo kendo kata yweyo otama.”
How then can the servant of this my lord speak with this my lord, —seeing that, as for me—henceforth, there remaineth in me no strength, and no, spirit, is left in me?
18 Eka ngʼatno nochako omula kendo mi omiya teko.
Then again there touched me one like in appearance to a son of earth, 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, Do not fear, O man greatly delighted in! peace to thee, be strong, yea be strong! And, as he spake with me, I gained strength, and 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? But, now, must I return to fight with the ruler of Persia; I, therefore am going forth, and lo! the ruler of Greece, is coming.
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.
Howbeit I will tell thee that which is inscribed in the writing of truth, —but there is no one who holdeth strongly with me concerning these things, save Michael your ruler.
