< Daniel 7 >

1 In the first year of Belshazzar, king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream, and visions came into his head on his bed: then he put the dream in writing.
Nang unang taon ni Belsasar na hari sa Babilonia, ay nagtaglay si Daniel ng isang panaginip at mga pangitain ng kaniyang ulo sa kaniyang higaan: nang magkagayo'y kaniyang isinulat ang panaginip, at isinaysay ang kabuoan ng mga bagay.
2 I had a vision by night, and saw the four winds of heaven violently moving the great sea.
Si Daniel ay nagsalita, at nagsabi, May nakita ako sa aking pangitain sa kinagabihan, at, narito, ang apat na hangin ng langit ay nagsisihihip sa malaking dagat.
3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, different one from another.
At apat na malaking hayop na magkakaiba ay nagsiahon mula sa dagat,
4 The first was like a lion and had eagle's wings; while I was watching its wings were pulled off, and it was lifted up from the earth and placed on two feet like a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
Ang una'y gaya ng leon, at may mga pakpak ng aguila: aking minasdan hanggang sa ang mga pakpak niyao'y nahugot, at ito'y nataas mula sa lupa, at pinatayo sa dalawang paa na gaya ng isang tao; at puso ng tao ang nabigay sa kaniya.
5 And I saw another beast, like a bear, and it was lifted up on one side, and three side-bones were in its mouth, between its teeth: and they said to it, Up! take much flesh.
At, narito, ang ibang hayop, na ikalawa, na gaya ng isang oso; at lumitaw sa isang tagiliran, at tatlong tadyang ang nasa kaniyang bibig sa pagitan ng kaniyang mga ngipin: at sinabi ng mga ito ang ganito sa kaniya, Bumangon ka, manakmal ka ng maraming laman.
6 After this I saw another beast, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings like those of a bird; and the beast had four heads, and the power of a ruler was given to it.
Pagkatapos nito'y tumingin ako, at narito ang iba, gaya ng isang leopardo, na mayroon sa likod niyaon na apat na pakpak ng ibon; ang hayop ay mayroon din namang apat na ulo; at binigyan siya ng kapangyarihan.
7 After this, in my vision of the night, I saw a fourth beast, a thing causing fear and very troubling, full of power and very strong; and it had great iron teeth: it took its food, crushing some of it to bits and stamping down the rest with its feet: it was different from all the beasts before it; and it had ten horns.
Pagkatapos nito'y may nakita ako sa pangitain sa gabi, at, narito, ang ikaapat na hayop, kakilakilabot at makapangyarihan, at totoong malakas; at may malaking mga ngiping bakal; nananakmal at lumuluray, at niyuyurakan ng kaniyang mga paa ang nalabi: at kaiba sa lahat na hayop na una sa kaniya; at siya'y may sangpung sungay.
8 I was watching the horns with care, and I saw another coming up among them, a little one, before which three of the first horns were pulled up by the roots: and there were eyes like a man's eyes in this horn, and a mouth saying great things.
Aking pinagdilidili ang mga sungay, at, narito, sumibol sa gitna ng mga yaon ang ibang sungay, isang munti, na sa harap niyao'y tatlo sa mga unang sungay ay nabunot sa mga ugat: at, narito, sa sungay na ito ay may mga mata na parang mga mata ng tao, at isang bibig na nagsasalita ng mga dakilang bagay.
9 I went on looking till the seats of kings were placed, and one like a very old man took his seat: his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head was like clean wool; his seat was flames of fire and its wheels burning fire.
Aking minasdan hanggang sa ang mga luklukan ay nangaglagay, at isa na matanda sa mga araw ay nakaupo: ang kaniyang suot, maputing parang niebe, at ang buhok ng kaniyang ulo ay parang taganas na lana; ang kaniyang luklukan ay mga liab na apoy, at ang mga gulong niyaon ay nagniningas na apoy.
10 A stream of fire was flowing and coming out from before him: a thousand thousands were his servants, and ten thousand times ten thousand were in their places before him: the judge was seated and the books were open.
Isang mabangis na sigalbo ay lumabas at nagmula sa harap niya: mga libo libo ang naglilingkod sa kaniya, at makasangpung libo na sangpung libo ang nagsitayo sa harap niya: ang kahatulan ay nalagda, at ang mga aklat ay nangabuksan.
11 Then I saw — because of the voice of the great words which the horn said — I saw till the beast was put to death, and its body was given to destruction, and the beast was given to the burning of fire.
Ako'y tumingin nang oras na yaon dahil sa tinig ng mga dakilang salita na sinalita ng sungay; ako'y tumingin hanggang sa ang hayop ay napatay, at ang kaniyang katawan ay nagiba, at siya'y nabigay upang sunugin sa apoy.
12 As for the rest of the beasts, their authority was taken away: but they let them go on living for a measure of time.
At tungkol sa nalabi sa mga hayop, ang kanilang kapangyarihan ay naalis: gayon ma'y ang kanilang mga buhay ay humaba sa isang kapanahunan at isang panahon.
13 I saw in visions of the night, and there was coming with the clouds of heaven one like a man, and he came to the one who was very old, and they took him near before him.
Ako'y nakakita sa pangitain sa gabi, at, narito, lumabas na kasama ng mga alapaap sa langit ang isang gaya ng anak ng tao, at siya'y naparoon sa matanda sa mga araw, at inilapit nila siya sa harap niya.
14 And to him was given authority and glory and a kingdom; and all peoples, nations, and languages were his servants: his authority is an eternal authority which will not come to an end, and his kingdom is one which will not come to destruction.
At binigyan siya ng kapangyarihan, at kaluwalhatian, at isang kaharian, upang lahat ng mga bayan, bansa, at mga wika ay mangaglingkod sa kaniya: ang kaniyang kapangyarihan ay walang hanggang kapangyarihan, na hindi lilipas, at ang kaniyang kaharian ay hindi magigiba.
15 As for me, Daniel, my spirit was pained because of this, and the visions of my head were troubling me.
Tungkol sa aking si Daniel, ang aking kalooban ay namanglaw sa loob ng aking katawan, at binagabag ako ng mga pangitain ng aking ulo.
16 I came near to one of those who were waiting there, questioning him about what all this was. And he said to me that he would make clear to me the sense of these things.
Ako'y lumapit sa isa sa kanila na nakatayo, at itinanong ko sa kaniya ang katotohanan tungkol sa lahat na ito. Sa gayo'y kaniyang isinaysay sa akin, at ipinaaninaw niya sa akin ang kahulugan ng mga bagay.
17 These great beasts are four kings who will be cut off from the earth.
Ang mga dakilang hayop na ito na apat, ay apat na hari, na magbabangon sa lupa.
18 But the saints of the Most High will take the kingdom, and it will be theirs for ever, even for ever and ever.
Nguni't ang mga banal ng Kataastaasan ay magsisitanggap ng kaharian, at aariin ang kaharian magpakailan man, sa makatuwid baga'y magpakakailan-kailan man.
19 Then it was my desire to have certain knowledge about the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, a cause of great fear, whose teeth were of iron and his nails of brass; who took his food, crushing some of it to bits and stamping on the rest with his feet;
Nang magkagayo'y ninasa kong maalaman ang katotohanan tungkol sa ikaapat na hayop, na kaiba sa lahat ng yaon, na totoong kakilakilabot, na ang mga ngipin ay bakal, at ang mga kuko ay tanso; na nananakmal, lumalamuray, at niyuyurakan ng kaniyang mga paa ang nalabi;
20 And about the ten horns on his head and the other which came up, causing the fall of three; that horn which had eyes, and a mouth saying great things, which seemed to be greater than the other horns.
At tungkol sa sangpung sungay na nangasa kaniyang ulo, at sa isa na sumibol, at sa harap niyao'y nabuwal ang tatlo, sa makatuwid baga'y yaong sungay na may mga mata, at bibig na nagsalita ng dakilang mga bagay, na ang anyo ay lalong dakila kay sa kaniyang mga kasama.
21 And I saw how that horn made war on the saints and overcame them,
Ako'y tumingin, at ang sungay ding yaon ay nakipagdigma sa mga banal, at nanaig laban sa kanila;
22 Till he came, who was very old, and the decision was made and the authority was given to the saints of the Most High; and the time came when the saints took the kingdom.
Hanggang sa ang matanda sa mga araw ay dumating, at ang kahatulan ay ibinigay sa mga banal, ng Kataastaasan; at ang panaho'y dumating na inari ng mga banal ang kaharian.
23 This is what he said: The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom which will come on earth, different from all the kingdoms, and it will overcome all the earth, crushing it down and smashing it.
Ganito ang sabi niya, Ang ikaapat na hayop ay magiging ikaapat na kaharian sa ibabaw ng lupa, na magiging kaiba sa lahat ng kaharian, at sasakmalin ang buong lupa, at yuyurakan, at pagluluraylurayin.
24 And as for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will come to power; and after them another will come up: he will be different from the first ones and will put down three kings.
At tungkol sa sangpung sungay, mula sa kahariang ito ay sangpung hari ang babangon: at ang isa'y babangong kasunod nila; at siya'y magiging kaiba kay sa mga una, at kaniyang ibabagsak ay tatlong hari.
25 And he will say words against the Most High, attempting to put an end to the saints of the Most High; and he will have the idea of changing times and law; and the saints will be given into his hands for a time and times and half a time.
At siya'y magbabadya ng mga salita laban sa Kataastaasan, at lilipulin niya ang mga banal ng Kataastaasan; at kaniyang iisiping baguhin ang panahon at ang kautusan; at sila'y mangabibigay sa kaniyang kamay hanggang sa isang panahon, at mga panahon at kalahati ng isang panahon.
26 But the judge will be seated, and they will put an end to his authority, to overcome it and send complete destruction on it.
Nguni't ang kahatulan ay matatatag, at kanilang aalisin ang kaniyang kapangyarihan, upang patayin at ibuwal hanggang sa wakas.
27 And the kingdom and the authority and the power of the kingdoms under all the heaven will be given to the people of the saints of the Most High: his kingdom is an eternal kingdom, and all powers will be his servants and do his pleasure.
At ang kaharian, at ang kapangyarihan, at ang kadakilaan ng mga kaharian sa silong ng buong langit, mabibigay sa bayan ng mga banal ng Kataastaasan: ang kaniyang kaharian ay walang hanggang kaharian, at ang lahat na kapangyarihan ay maglilingkod at tatalima sa kaniya.
28 Here is the end of the account. As for me, Daniel, I was greatly troubled by my thoughts, and the colour went from my face: but I kept the thing in my heart.
Narito ang wakas ng bagay. Tungkol sa aking si Daniel, ay binabagabag akong mabuti ng aking mga pagiisip, at ang aking pagmumukha ay nabago: nguni't iningatan ko ang bagay sa aking puso.
