< Daniel 10 >
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar, and the thing was true, even a great warfare. And he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.
फारसका राजा कोरेसको तेस्रो वर्षमा दानिएललाई एउटा सन्देश प्रकट गरियो जसलाई बेलतसजर पनि भनिन्थ्यो। यो सन्देश साँचो थियो । यो एउटा ठुलो युद्धको विषयमा थियो । आफूले दर्शनबाट अन्तर्दृष्टि पाएपछि दानिएलले यो सन्देश बुझे ।
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks.
ती दिनहरूमा म दानिएल, तिन हप्तासम्म शोक गरिरहें ।
3 I ate no pleasant bread. Neither flesh nor wine came into my mouth. Neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
तिन हप्ता पुरै नबितेसम्म नै मैले कुनै मिठो खाना खाइनँ, न मासु खाएँ, न दाखमद्य पिएँ, न त मैले आफैंलाई तेलले अभिषेक गरें ।
4 And in the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel,
पहिलो महिनाको चौबीसौं दिनमा, जब म त्यो विशाल नदी (अर्थात् टाइग्रिस) को छेउमा थिएँ,
5 I lifted up my eyes, and looked. And, behold, a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with pure gold of Uphaz.
मैले माथि हेरें र सूतीको लुगा लगाएका एक जना मानिसलाई देखें, जसको कम्मरमा उफाजको शुद्ध सुनले बनेको पेटी बाँधिएको थियो ।
6 Also his body was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches, and his arms and his feet like burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
तिनको शरीर पीतमणिजस्तो र तिनको अनुहार बिजुलीजस्तो थियो । तिनका आँखा बलिरहेका राँकोजस्ता थिए, र तिनका हात र खुट्टाहरू टल्काइएका काँसाजस्तै थिए । तिनको वचन आवाज एउटा ठुलो भीडको जस्तो थियो ।
7 And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see the vision, but a great quaking fell upon them, and they fled to hide themselves.
म, दानिएल एक्लै त्यो दर्शन देखें, किनकि मसँगै भएका मानिसहरूले त्यो दर्शन देखेनन् । तपनि, तिनीहरूमा एउटा ठुलो त्रास पर्यो, र तिनीहरू आफू लुक्नलाई भागे ।
8 So I was left alone, and saw this great vision. And there remained no strength in me, for my fitness was turned in me into debility, and I retained no strength.
यसैले म एक्लै छोडिएँ र यो महान् दर्शन देखें । ममा बल बाँकी रहेन । मेरो उज्यालो अनुहार नै अँधयारो भयो, र ममा कुनै शक्ति नै रहेन ।
9 Yet I heard the voice of his words. And when I heard the voice of his words, then I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
तब मैले तिनका शब्दहरू सुनें— र मैले ती सनिरहँदा, म जमिनमा घोप्टो परेर गहिरो निद्रामा निदाएँ ।
10 And, behold, a hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
मलाई एउटा हातले छोयो, र त्यसले मेरा घुँडाहरू र हत्केलाहरूलाई थरथर काँम्ने बनायो ।
11 And he said to me, O Daniel, thou man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to thee, and stand upright, for I am now sent to thee. And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood, trembling.
ती स्वर्गदूतले मलाई भने, “ए दानिएल, धेरै सम्मान पाएको मानिस, मैले तिमीलाई भनिरहेका वचनलाई बुझ । सिधा खडा होऊ, किनकि मलाई तिमीकहाँ पठाइएको छ ।” तिनले मलाई यो सन्देश बोलेको समयमा, थरथर काम्दै म उठें ।
12 Then he said to me, Fear not, Daniel, for from the first day that thou set thy heart to understand, and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard. And I have come for thy words' sake.
अनि तिनले मलाई यसो भने, “ए दानिएल, नडराऊ । बुझ्न र आफ्नो परमेश्वरको सामु आफैंलाई नम्र बनाउन तिमीले प्रयास गरेका पहिलो दिनदेखि नै तिम्रा शब्दहरूको सुनुवाइ भएको छ, र तिम्रा शब्दहरूकै कारणले म आएको छु ।
13 But the ruler of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days, but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me. And I remained there with the kings of Persia.
तर फारस राज्यका राजकुमारले मेरो विरोध गर्यो, र मलाई एक्काइस दिनसम्म फारसका राजाहरूसँग राखियो । तर प्रधान राजकुमारहरूमध्ये एक, मिखाएल मलाई सहायता गर्न आए ।
14 I have come now to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days, for the vision is yet for many days.
तिम्रा मानिसहरूलाई अन्तका दिनमा के हुनेछ भनेर बुझ्न तिमीलाई मदत गर्न म आएको हुँ । किनकि यो दर्शनचाहिं अझै आउन बाँकी दिनको निम्ति हो ।”
15 And when he had spoken to me according to these words, I set my face toward the ground, and was mute.
जब तिनले यी शब्दहरूको प्रयोग गरी मसँग बोल्दै थिए, मैले मेरो मुहारलाई जमिनतर्फ झुकाएँ र म बोल्न सकिनँ ।
16 And, behold, someone in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth, and spoke and said to him who stood before me, O my lord, because of the vision my pains have turned upon me, and I retain no strength.
मानिसका पुत्रजस्तै देखिने एक जनाले मेरो ओठहरूमा छोए, र मैले आफ्नो मुख खोलें र मेरो सामु हुनेसँग बात गरें, “हे मेरा मालिक, दर्शनको कारणले गर्दा म वेदनामा परेको छु । मसँग बल छैन ।
17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? For as for me, straightaway there remained no strength in me, nor was there breath left in me.
म तपाईंको सेवक हुँ । कसरी म आफ्नो मालिकसँग बोल्न सक्छु? किनकि म जान्दछु कि मसँग बल छैन, र ममा सास पनि बाँकी छैन ।”
18 Then someone like the appearance of a man touched me again, and he strengthened me.
मानिसजस्ता देखिनेले मलाई फेरि छोए र मलाई शक्ति दिए ।
19 And he said, O man greatly beloved, fear not. Peace be to thee. Be strong, yea, be strong. And when he spoke to me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak, for thou have strengthened me.
तिनले भने, “ए धेरै सम्मान पाएको मानिस, नडराऊ । तिमीलाई शान्ति होस्! अब शाहसी होऊ, बलियो होऊ!” तिनी मसँग बोल्दै गर्दा, ममा बल आयो । मैले भनें, “ए मेरा मालिक बोल्नुहोस्, किनकि तपाईंले मलाई शक्ति दिनुभएको छ ।”
20 Then he said, Do thou know why I have come to thee? And now I will return to fight with the ruler of Persia. And when I go forth, lo, the ruler of Greece shall come.
तिनले भने, “म तिमीकहाँ किन आएँ के तिमीलाई थाहा छ? म छिट्टै फारसका राजकुमारसँग यद्ध गर्नलाई फर्कनेछु । म गएपछि, ग्रीसका राजकुमार आउनेछन् ।
21 But I will tell thee that which is inscribed in the writing of truth. And there is none who holds with me against these, but Michael your prince.
तर सत्यको पुस्तकमा के लेखिएको छ, म तिमीलाई बताउनेछु । तिम्रा राजकुमार मिखाएल बाहेक अरू कसैले पनि तिनीहरूका विरुद्ध मलाई शाहसी बनाउन सक्दैनन् ।”
