Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a message was revealed to Daniel, who was called Belteshazzar. The message was true, and it concerned a great conflict. And the understanding of the message was given to him in a vision.
Persia manghai Cyrus kah kum thum dongah, a ming Belteshazzar la a khue Daniel taengah ol a phoe pah. Te dongah oltak ol neh caempuei a len kah la om dae ol te a yakming tih a hmuethma khaw yakmingnah a khueh.
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning for three full weeks.
Te vaeng khohnin ah kai Daniel tah khohnin la yalh thum te nguekcoi neh ka om.
3 I ate no rich food, no meat or wine entered my mouth, and I did not anoint myself with oil until the three weeks were completed.
Buh tui athenla ka ca pawt tih maeh neh misurtui khaw ka ka khuiah kun pawh. Khohnin yalh thum a cup hil situi ka hluk rhoe ka hluk pawh.
4 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was standing on the bank of the great river, the Tigris,
Lamhmacuek hla kah hnin kul neh hnin li vaengah tah kai khaw Khiddekel tuiva puei kah langkaeng ah ka om.
5 I lifted up my eyes, and behold, there was a certain man dressed in linen, with a belt of fine gold from Uphaz around his waist.
Ka mik te ka huel tih ka sawt vaengah hlang pakhat takhlawk pueinak neh tarha om tih a cinghen te Uphaz sui a nak.
6 His body was like beryl, his face like the brilliance of lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of polished bronze, and his voice like the sound of a multitude.
A pum tah timsuih bangla om tih a maelhmai tah rhaek kah a mueimae bangla om. A mik tah hmaithoi hmai bangla om tih a ban neh a kho tah rhohum ngo kah a pang bangla om. A olthui ol tah hlangping ol bangla om.
7 Only I, Daniel, saw the vision; the men with me did not see it, but a great terror fell upon them, and they ran and hid themselves.
Kai Daniel kamah bueng long ni mangthui te ka hmuh. Tedae ka taengah aka om hlang rhoek loh mangthui te a hmuh uh moenih. Tedae amih te thuennah loh muep a tlak thil tih thuh hamla yong uh.
8 So I was left alone, gazing at this great vision. No strength remained in me; my face grew deathly pale, and I was powerless.
Kai khaw kamah bueng la ka cul tih mangthui a len he ka hmuh vaengah tah ka khuikah thadueng loh sueng voel pawh. Te vaengah ka mueithennah he kai taengah kutcaihnah la poeh tih thadueng nuen voel pawh.
9 I heard the sound of his words, and as I listened, I fell into a deep sleep, with my face to the ground.
A olthui ol te ka yaak tih a olthui ol te ka yaak. Kai khaw ka om dae ka mik ip tih ka maelhmai diklai la ka khueh.
10 Suddenly, a hand touched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees.
Te vaengah kutvang loh kai te tarha m'ben tih ka khuklu neh ka kut kutbom ah kai n'hlinghloek.
11 He said to me, “Daniel, you are a man who is highly precious. Consider carefully the words that I am about to say to you. Stand up, for I have now been sent to you.” And when he had said this to me, I stood up trembling.
Te vaengah kai te, “Tongpa sanaep Daniel, nang taengah ka thui bangla ol te yakming lamtah namah paihmuen ah pai. Nang taengah kai n'tueih coeng he. He ol he kai taengah a thui vaengah ka pai tih ka thuen.
12 “Do not be afraid, Daniel,” he said, “for from the first day that you purposed to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them.
Te phoeiah kai te, “Daniel rhih boeh, lamhmacuek khohnin lamloh yakming ham neh na Pathen mikhmuh ah yalh hamla na lungbuei te na paek. Na ol a yaak uh dongah kai khaw nang ol bangla ka lo coeng,” a ti.
13 However, the prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed me for twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left there with the kings of Persia.
Tedae Persia ram kah mangpa tah kai hmai ah hnin kul hnin khat pai. Persia manghai rhoek taengah kamah la hnap ka cul dongah kai bom hamla mangpa lamhma rhoek khuikah pakhat Michael te tarha ha pai.
14 Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision concerns those days.”
A khohnin kah mangthui a om pueng dongah hmailong tue ah na pilnam taengah aka thoeng ham te nang yakming sak ham ka lo.
15 While he was speaking these words to me, I set my face toward the ground and became speechless.
Kai taengah a thui vaengah he ol bangla ka maelhmai diklai la ka khueh tih ka tum uh.
16 And suddenly one with the likeness of a man touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and said to the one standing before me, “My lord, because of the vision, I am overcome with anguish, and I have no strength.
Te dongah hlang ca rhoek kah mueiloh bangla ka hmuilai te tarha ham ben. Ka ka ka ang tih ka thui vaengah ka hmai ah aka pai te, “Ka boeipa aw, mangthui rhangneh kai soah ka tloh la poeh tih ka thadueng sai pawh.
17 How can I, your servant, speak with you, my lord? Now I have no strength, nor is any breath left in me.”
Ka boeipa taengah thui ham he ka boeipa kah sal loh metlam a noeng eh? Kai khaw tahae lamkah he ka khuiah thadueng thoo voel pawt tih ka khuikah ka hiil sueng voel pawh,” ka ti nah.
18 Again the one with the likeness of a man touched me and strengthened me.
Te phoeiah a khoep tih hlang kah a mueimae bangla kai te m'ben tih kai n'thaphoh.
19 “Do not be afraid, you who are highly precious,” he said. “Peace be with you! Be strong now; be very strong!” As he spoke with me, I was strengthened and said, “Speak, my lord, for you have strengthened me.”
Te vaengah, “Sanaep hlang aw rhih boeh, nang taengah ngaimongnah om saeh. Moem uh lamtah thaom sak. Kai taengah a thui bangla ka thaom,” a ti. Tedae “Kai nan thaphoh bangla ka boei loh thui saeh,” a ti.
20 “Do you know why I have come to you?” he said. “I must return at once to fight against the prince of Persia, and when I have gone forth, behold, the prince of Greece will come.
Te vaengah, “Na ming a? Balae tih nang taengla ka lo? Persia mangpa taengah vathoh hamla ka mael pawn vetih ka caeh neh Javan mangpa ha pai ni te.
21 But first I will tell you what is inscribed in the Book of Truth. Yet no one has the courage to support me against these, except Michael your prince.
Te cakhaw oltak ca khuikah a hlum te ni na taengah kan thui eh. Nang mangpa Michael bueng phoeiah tah te rhoek te kai taengah aka moem pakhat khaw a om moenih.
