Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus, king of Persia, a secret was unfolded to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, even a hard work: and he had knowledge of it, and the vision was clear to him.
| فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّالِثَةِ لِكُورَشَ مَلِكِ فَارِسَ كُشِفَ أَمْرٌ لِدَانِيآلَ ٱلَّذِي سُمِّيَ بِٱسْمِ بَلْطَشَاصَّرَ. وَٱلْأَمْرُ حَقٌّ وَٱلْجِهَادُ عَظِيمٌ، وَفَهِمَ ٱلْأَمْرَ وَلَهُ مَعْرِفَةُ ٱلرُّؤْيَا. | ١ |
2 In those days I, Daniel, gave myself up to grief for three full weeks.
| فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أَنَا دَانِيآلَ كُنْتُ نَائِحًا ثَلَاثَةَ أَسَابِيعِ أَيَّامٍ | ٢ |
3 I had no pleasing food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, and I put no oil on my body till three full weeks were ended.
| لَمْ آكُلْ طَعَامًا شَهِيًّا وَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ فِي فَمِي لَحْمٌ وَلَا خَمْرٌ، وَلَمْ أَدَّهِنْ حَتَّى تَمَّتْ ثَلَاثَةُ أَسَابِيعِ أَيَّامٍ. | ٣ |
4 And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was by the side of the great river;
| وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعِ وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ، إِذْ كُنْتُ عَلَى جَانِبِ ٱلنَّهْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ هُوَ دِجْلَةُ، | ٤ |
5 And lifting up my eyes I saw the form of a man clothed in a linen robe, and round him there was a band of gold, of the best gold:
| رَفَعْتُ وَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا بِرَجُلٍ لَابِسٍ كَتَّانًا، وَحَقْوَاهُ مُتَنَطِّقَانِ بِذَهَبِ أُوفَازَ، | ٥ |
6 And his body was like the beryl, and his face had the look of a thunder-flame, and his eyes were like burning lights, and his arms and feet like the colour of polished brass, and the sound of his voice was like the sound of an army.
| وَجِسْمُهُ كَٱلزَّبَرْجَدِ، وَوَجْهُهُ كَمَنْظَرِ ٱلْبَرْقِ، وَعَيْنَاهُ كَمِصْبَاحَيْ نَارٍ، وَذِرَاعَاهُ وَرِجْلَاهُ كَعَيْنِ ٱلنُّحَاسِ ٱلْمَصْقُولِ، وَصَوْتُ كَلَامِهِ كَصَوْتِ جُمْهُورٍ. | ٦ |
7 And I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see it; but a great shaking came on them and they went in flight to take cover.
| فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَا دَانِيآلُ ٱلرُّؤْيَا وَحْدِي، وَٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعِي لَمْ يَرَوْا ٱلرُّؤْيَا، لَكِنْ وَقَعَ عَلَيْهِمِ ٱرْتِعَادٌ عَظِيمٌ، فَهَرَبُوا لِيَخْتَبِئُوا. | ٧ |
8 So I was by myself, and I saw this great vision, and all my strength went from me; and the colour went from my face.
| فَبَقِيتُ أَنَا وَحْدِي، وَرَأَيْتُ هَذِهِ ٱلرُّؤْيَا ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ. وَلَمْ تَبْقَ فِيَّ قُوَّةٌ، وَنَضَارَتِي تَحَوَّلَتْ فِيَّ إِلَى فَسَادٍ، وَلَمْ أَضْبِطْ قُوَّةً. | ٨ |
9 But the sound of his words came to my ears, and on hearing his voice I went into a deep sleep with my face to the earth.
| وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ كَلَامِهِ. وَلَمَّا سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ كَلَامِهِ كُنْتُ مُسَبَّخًا عَلَى وَجْهِي، وَوَجْهِي إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٩ |
10 Then a hand gave me a touch, awaking me, and putting me on my knees and my hands.
| وَإِذَا بِيَدٍ لَمَسَتْنِي وَأَقَامَتْنِي مُرْتَجِفًا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيَّ وَعَلَى كَفَّيْ يَدَيَّ. | ١٠ |
11 And he said to me, O Daniel, you man dearly loved, take in the sense of the words I say to you and get up on to your feet: for to you I am now sent; and when he had said this to me I got on to my feet, shaking with fear.
| وَقَالَ لِي: «يَا دَانِيآلُ، أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْمَحْبُوبُ ٱفْهَمِ ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي أُكَلِّمُكَ بِهِ، وَقُمْ عَلَى مَقَامِكَ لِأَنِّي ٱلْآنَ أُرْسِلْتُ إِلَيْكَ». وَلَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ مَعِي بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ قُمْتُ مُرْتَعِدًا. | ١١ |
12 Then he said to me, Have no fear, Daniel; for from the first day when you gave your heart to getting wisdom and making yourself poor in spirit before your God, your words have come to his ears: and I have come because of your words.
| فَقَالَ لِي: «لَا تَخَفْ يَا دَانِيآلُ، لِأَنَّهُ مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ جَعَلْتَ قَلْبَكَ لِلْفَهْمِ وَلِإِذْلَالِ نَفْسِكَ قُدَّامَ إِلَهِكَ، سُمِعَ كَلَامُكَ، وَأَنَا أَتَيْتُ لِأَجْلِ كَلَامِكَ. | ١٢ |
13 But the angel of the kingdom of Persia put himself against me for twenty-one days; but Michael, one of the chief angels, came to my help; and when I came he was still there with the angel of the kings of Persia.
| وَرَئِيسُ مَمْلَكَةِ فَارِسَ وَقَفَ مُقَابِلِي وَاحِدًا وَعِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا، وَهُوَذَا مِيخَائِيلُ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ جَاءَ لِإِعَانَتِي، وَأَنَا أُبْقِيتُ هُنَاكَ عِنْدَ مُلُوكِ فَارِسَ. | ١٣ |
14 Now I have come to give you knowledge of the fate of your people in the later days; for there is still a vision for the days.
| وَجِئْتُ لِأُفْهِمَكَ مَا يُصِيبُ شَعْبَكَ فِي ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْأَخِيرَةِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرُّؤْيَا إِلَى أَيَّامٍ بَعْدُ». | ١٤ |
15 And after he had said these words to me, I kept my face turned to the earth and was unable to say anything.
| فَلَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ مَعِي بِمِثْلِ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ جَعَلْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَصَمَتُّ. | ١٥ |
16 Then one whose form was like the sons of men put his finger on my lips; and opening my mouth, I said to him who was before me, O my lord, because of the vision my pains have come on me, and I have no more strength.
| وَهُوَذَا كَشِبْهِ بَنِي آدَمَ لَمَسَ شَفَتَيَّ، فَفَتَحْتُ فَمِي وَتَكَلَّمْتُ وَقُلْتُ لِلْوَاقِفِ أَمَامِي: «يَا سَيِّدِي، بِٱلرُّؤْيَا ٱنْقَلَبَتْ عَلَيَّ أَوْجَاعِي فَمَا ضَبَطْتُ قُوَّةً. | ١٦ |
17 For how may this servant of my lord have talk with my lord? for, as for me, straight away my strength went from me and there was no breath in my body.
| فَكَيْفَ يَسْتَطِيعُ عَبْدُ سَيِّدِي هَذَا أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ مَعَ سَيِّدِي هَذَا وَأَنَا فَحَالًا، لَمْ تَثْبُتْ فِيَّ قُوَّةٌ وَلَمْ تَبْقَ فِيَّ نَسَمَةٌ؟». | ١٧ |
18 Then again one having the form of a man put his hand on me and gave me strength.
| فَعَادَ وَلَمَسَنِي كَمَنْظَرِ إِنْسَانٍ وَقَوَّانِي، | ١٨ |
19 And he said to me, O man greatly loved, have no fear: peace be with you, be strong and let your heart be lifted up. And at his words I became strong, and said, Let my lord say on, for you have given me strength.
| وَقَالَ: «لَا تَخَفْ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْمَحْبُوبُ. سَلَامٌ لَكَ. تَشَدَّدْ. تَقَوَّ». وَلَمَّا كَلَّمَنِي تَقَوَّيْتُ وَقُلْتُ: «لِيَتَكَلَّمْ سَيِّدِي لِأَنَّكَ قَوَّيْتَنِي». | ١٩ |
20 Then he said, It is clear to you why I have come to you. And now I will give you an account of what is recorded in the true writings:
| فَقَالَ: «هَلْ عَرَفْتَ لِمَاذَا جِئْتُ إِلَيْكَ؟ فَٱلْآنَ أَرْجِعُ وَأُحَارِبُ رَئِيسَ فَارِسَ. فَإِذَا خَرَجْتُ هُوَذَا رَئِيسُ ٱلْيُونَانِ يَأْتِي. | ٢٠ |
21 But I am going back to make war with the angel of Persia, and when I am gone, the angel of Greece will come. And there is no one on my side against these, but Michael, your angel.
| وَلَكِنِّي أُخْبِرُكَ بِٱلْمَرْسُومِ فِي كِتَابِ ٱلْحَقِّ. وَلَا أَحَدٌ يَتَمَسَّكُ مَعِي عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ إِلَّا مِيخَائِيلُ رَئِيسُكُمْ. | ٢١ |
