Daniel 12
1 “At that time Michael, the great prince who stands watch over your people, will rise up. There will be a time of distress, the likes of which will not have occurred from the beginning of nations until that time. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered.
“Alò, nan lè sa a, Micaël, gran prens ki te kanpe pou fis a pèp ou yo, va leve. Epi va gen yon tan gwo twoub jan sa pa t janm te konn fèt soti lè te gen yon nasyon jis rive nan lè sa a. Epi nan lè sa a, pèp ou a va vin delivre, tout moun ke gen non ekri nan liv la.
2 And many who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake, some to everlasting life, but others to shame and everlasting contempt.
Anpil nan sila ki dòmi nan pousyè latè yo va leve, yon pati pou lavi etènèl yo, men lòt yo pou gwo wont ak mepriz ki p ap janm fini.
3 Then the wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever and ever.
Sila ki gen bon konprann yo va briye klè tankou ekla a tout syèl la. Epi sila ki mennen anpil moun vè ladwati yo, va brile tankou zetwal jis pou tout tan, e pou tout tan.
4 But you, Daniel, shut up these words and seal the book until the time of the end. Many will roam to and fro, and knowledge will increase.”
Men ou menm, Daniel, kache pawòl sila yo, e sele liv la nèt, jis rive nan fen tan yo. Anpil moun va kouri fè ale vini, e konesans va ogmante.”
5 Then I, Daniel, looked and saw two others standing there, one on this bank of the river and one on the opposite bank.
Epi mwen menm, Daniel te gade, e vwala, de lòt moun te kanpe, youn sou bò rivyè sa a, e lòt la sou lòtbò a.
6 One of them said to the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, “How long until the fulfillment of these wonders?”
Konsa youn te di a mesye abiye an len an, ki te sou dlo rivyè a: “Konbyen tan pou rive nan fen a bagay mèvèy sila yo?”
7 And the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by Him who lives forever, saying, “It will be for a time, and times, and half a time. When the power of the holy people has finally been shattered, all these things will be completed.”
Mwen te tande nonm abiye an len an, ki te sou dlo rivyè a, lè l te leve men dwat li ak men goch li vè syèl la. Li te jire pa li menm ki viv pou tout tan an, ki li va pou yon tan, tan yo, ak yon mwatye tan. Lè yo fin kraze pouvwa a pèp sen an, tout evenman sila yo va fini.
8 I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these things?”
Konsa, mwen te tande, men mwen pa t ka konprann. Akoz sa, mwen te di: “Senyè mwen, kisa ki va fen a evenman sila yo?”
9 “Go on your way, Daniel,” he replied, “for the words are closed up and sealed until the time of the end.
Li te di: “Ale, Daniel, paske pawòl sila yo kache e sele nèt, jiska moman lafen an.
10 Many will be purified, made spotless, and refined, but the wicked will continue to act wickedly. None of the wicked will understand, but the wise will understand.
Anpil moun va pirifye tèt yo, e fè tèt yo blan pou vin rafine, men mechan yo va aji ak mechanste. Konsa okenn nan mechan yo p ap konprann, men sila ki gen sajès yo va konprann.
11 And from the time the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination of desolation set up, there will be 1,290 days.
“Soti nan lè ke sakrifis nòmal la te vin aboli a abominasyon ak dezolasyon vin monte a, va genyen mil-de-san-katreven-dis jou.
12 Blessed is he who waits and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.
Beni se sila ki va tann, e rive jis nan Mil-twa-san-trann-senk jou yo.
13 But as for you, go on your way until the end. You will rest, and will arise to your inheritance at the end of the days.”
“Men ou menm, kontinye fè wout ou, jis rive nan fen an. Paske ou va antre nan repo, e ou va kanpe ankò pou pòsyon eritaj pa ou a nan fen jou yo.”
