< Daniel 9 >

1 In the first year of Darius, the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldaeans;
Amy taom-baloham-pifehea’ i Dariavese ana’ i Akrasehòse tarira’ o nte-Medaio, ie nanoeñe mpanjaka an-tane’ o nte-Kasdio;
2 In the first year of his rule, I, Daniel, saw clearly from the books the number of years given by the word of the Lord to the prophet Jeremiah, in which the making waste of Jerusalem was to be complete, that is, seventy years.
amy taom-baloham-pifehea’ey, le nañotsohotso amo bokeo iraho, Daniele, ty ami’ty ia’ o taoñe tsinara’ Iehovà am’ Iiremeà mpitokio, ty haha-heneke ty fangoakoahañe Ierosa­laime, le fito-polo taoñe.
3 And turning my face to the Lord God, I gave myself up to prayer, requesting his grace, going without food, in haircloth and dust.
Aa le natoliko aman’ Añahare Talè ty tareheko, hipaiako an-tsoloho naho halaly, an-dilitse naho gony vaho lavenoke.
4 And I made prayer to the Lord my God, putting our sins before him, and said, O Lord, the great God, greatly to be feared. keeping your agreement and mercy with those who have love for you and do your orders;
Aa le nihalaly am’ Iehovà Andrianañahareko, nisoloho ami’ty hoe: Ie henane zao ry Talè Andrianañahare jabahinake mañeva fañeveñañe, mpitàm-pañìna naho miferenaiñe amo mikoko Azo naho miambeñe o lili’oo;
5 We are sinners, acting wrongly and doing evil; we have gone against you, turning away from your orders and from your laws:
nandilatse zahay, nanao hakeo naho tahiñe, fa niola vaho nihànkañe amo fandilia’oo naho o fepè’oo.
6 We have not given ear to your servants the prophets, who said words in your name to our kings and our rulers and our fathers and all the people of the land.
Tsy nihaoñe’ay o mpitoky mpitoro’oo, ie ami’ty tahina’o iereo te nisaontsy amo mpanjaka’aio naho amo mpifehe’aio naho amo roae’aio vaho amo hene’ ondaty i taneio.
7 O Lord, righteousness is yours, but shame is on us, even to this day; and on the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, and on all Israel, those who are near and those who are far off, in all the countries where you have sent them because of the sin which they have done against you.
Ry Talè, Azo ty havantañañe, anay ty fisalaran-daharañe, manahake henanekeo; le am’ ondati’ Iehodào naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo vaho am’ Israele iaby, o marineo naho o tsietoitane añeo amo fonga tane nandroaha’o iareo ty amy lilatse nandilara’ iareoo.
8 O Lord, shame is on us, on our kings and our rulers and our fathers, because of our sin against you.
Ry Talè toe ama’ay ty fisalaran-daharañe, amo mpanjaka’aio naho amo mpifehe’aio, vaho amo roae’aio, ty amo ota-faly nanoe’ay ama’oo.
9 With the Lord our God are mercies and forgiveness, for we have gone against him;
Amy Talè Andrianañahare’ay ty fiferenaiñañe naho ty fampipohan-kakeo, fa niola zahay,
10 And have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God to go in the way of his laws which he put before us by the mouth of his servants the prophets.
naho tsy nihaoñe’ay ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andria­nañahare’ay hañaveloa’ay amo Tsara’e najado’e añatrefa’ay am-pitoky mpitoro’eo.
11 And all Israel have been sinners against your law, turning away so as not to give ear to your voice: and the curse has been let loose on us, and the oath recorded in the law of Moses, the servant of God, for we have done evil against him.
Fonga nandilatse amy fetse’oy t’Israele, niamboho tsy nahajanjiñe ty fiarañanaña’o; izay ty nifetsaha’ i fa­tsey ama’ay naho i fanta sinokitse amy Tsara’ i Mosè, mpitoron’ Añaharey, ty amo haota-faly nanoe’ay ama’eo.
12 And he has given effect to his words which he said against us and against those who were our judges, by sending a great evil on us: for under all heaven there has not been done what has been done to Jerusalem.
Fa nampihenefe’e o tsara nitsarae’e ama’aio, naho amo mpizaka nifelek’ anaio, amo hankàñe nafetsa’e ama’aio; o le lia’ey tsy nanoeñe ambanen-dikerañe iabio le fa nanoeñe am’ Ierosalaime.
13 As it was recorded in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us: but we have made no prayer for grace from the Lord our God that we might be turned from our evil doings and come to true wisdom.
Ie sinokitse amy Tsara’ i Mosèy ao, le nidaiñe ama’ay o hekoheko rezao, fa tsy pinai’ay ty lahara’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay hiambohoa’ay o hakeo’aio, haharen­dreke ty hatò.
14 So the Lord has been watching over this evil and has made it come on us: for the Lord our God is upright in all his acts which he has done, and we have not given ear to his voice.
Aa le nampihitrife’ Iehovà i fandilovañey vaho nafetsa’e ama’ay; amy te vantañe amo fitoloñañe anoe’e iabio t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay, zahay nañatola amy fiarañanaña’ey.
15 And now, O Lord our God, who took your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand and made a great name for yourself even to this day; we are sinners, we have done evil.
Ie amy zao, ry Talè Andrianañahare’ay, Ihe nañakatse ondati’oo an-tane Mitsraime am-pitañe maozatse naho nahazoa’o tahinañe midodea, manahake henane zao; toe nandilatse zahay vaho nañota faly.
16 O Lord, because of your righteousness, let your wrath and your passion be turned away from your town Jerusalem, your holy mountain: because, through our sins and the evil-doing of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a cause of shame to all who are round about us.
Ry Talè, ty amo havañona’o iabio, ehe ampitoliho tsy homb’ an-drova’o Ierosalaime, vohi’o miavakey, ty haviñera’o naho ty fiforoforoa’o; amy te sirikae’ ondaty mañohok’ anaio t’Iero­salaime naho ondati’oo ty amo hakeo’aio naho o tahin-droae’aio.
17 And now, give ear, O our God, to the prayer of your servant and to his request for grace, and let your face be shining on your holy place which is made waste, because of your servants, O Lord.
Ie amy zao, ry Andria­naña­hare’ay, janjiño ty halali’ i mpitoro’oy naho o fisolohoa’eo, vaho ampireandreaño ty lahara’o, ty ama’o, ry Talè, ty amy toe’o miavake nampangoakoaheñey.
18 O my God, let your ear be turned and give hearing; let your eyes be open and see how we have been made waste and the town which is named by your name: for we are not offering our prayers before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercies.
Ry Andrianañahareko, atokilaño ty ravembia’o le mijanjiña; sokafo o fihaino’oo vaho vazohò ty fangoakoaha’ay naho i rova tokaveñe ami’ty tahina’oy; toe tsy ty havañona’ay ty itaroña’ay halaly añatrefa’o, fa o fiferenaiña’o tsi-fotofotoo.
19 O Lord, give ear; O Lord, have forgiveness; O Lord, take note and do; let there be no more waiting; for the honour of your name, O my God, because your town and your people are named by your name.
Mijanjiña, ry Talè; mañahà hakeo, Rañandria; haoño vaho mitoloña ry Talè; ko mihànkañe, ry Andrianañahareko, ty amy tahina’oy, amy te kanjieñe ami’ty tahina’o i rova’oy naho ondati’oo.
20 And while I was still saying these words in prayer, and putting my sins and the sins of my people Israel before the Lord, and requesting grace from the Lord my God for the holy mountain of my God;
Ie nivolañe naho niloloke vaho nisoloho amo tahikoo naho amo hakeo’ ondatiko Israeleo, vaho nitaron-kalaly añatrefa’ Iehovà Andria­nañahareko ty amy vohi-masin’ Añaharekoy;
21 Even while I was still in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at first when my weariness was great, put his hand on me about the time of the evening offering.
aa ie mbe nivolañe am-pilolofañe, va’e amy fisoroñañe harivay, le nihela-piti­liñe amako t’i Gabriele nitendrek’ amako amy aroñaroñe valoha’ey vaho nañedre ahy.
22 And teaching me and talking to me he said, O Daniel, I have come now to give you wisdom.
Nampan­drendrehe’e naho nisaontsia’e ty hoe: Ry Daniele, nivotrake etoan-draho hampahafohiñ’ azo i aroñaroñey.
23 At the first word of your prayer a word went out, and I have come to give you knowledge; for you are a man dearly loved: so give thought to the word and let the vision be clear to you.
Ie vaho nihalaly, le nahitrike i tsaray, le ingo te pok’ etoan-draho hañoke azo; fa vata’e kokoan-drehe; aa le fohino o tsa­rao naho rendreho o aroñaroñeo.
24 Seventy weeks have been fixed for your people and your holy town, to let wrongdoing be complete and sin come to its full limit, and for the clearing away of evil-doing and the coming in of eternal righteousness: so that the vision and the word of the prophet may be stamped as true, and to put the holy oil on a most holy place.
Fa najadoñe am’ ondati’oo naho amy rova’o miavakey ty hereñandro fitompolo hampijihetse i fiolày, hampigadon-kakeo, hijebañañe o tahiñeo, hampizilike havantañañe tsy ho modo nainai’e, naho hanjitse ty aroñaroñe naho ty fitokiañe, vaho horizañe i Masiñe do’ey.
25 Have then the certain knowledge that from the going out of the word for the building again of Jerusalem till the coming of a prince, on whom the holy oil has been put, will be seven weeks: in sixty-two weeks its building will be complete, with square and earthwork.
Mahafohina arè naho maharendreha t’ie hifototse ami’ ty fitseizañe i tsara hampipolieñe ondatio hamboatse Ierosalaimey, am-para’ i Mpifehe Tinendrey, le ho hereñandro fito naho hereñandro enempolo-ro’ amby, vaho hamboareñe indraike i damokey naho i kijoliy, an-tsam-poheke.
26 And at the end of the times, even after the sixty-two weeks, one on whom the holy oil has been put will be cut off and have no...; and the town and the holy place will be made waste together with a prince; and the end will come with an overflowing of waters, and even to the end there will be war; the making waste which has been fixed.
Aa ie modo i hereñandro enem-polo-ro’amby rey le haitoañe tsy amam-panàñañe i Norizañey; le homb’eo ondati’ i mpifelekeio handro­tsake i rovay naho i toetse miavakey; le hoe fisorotombahañe ty ho figadoña’e le fampangoakoahañe ty nalahatse am-para te heneke i aliy.
27 And a strong order will be sent out against the great number for one week; and so for half of the week the offering and the meal offering will come to an end; and in its place will be an unclean thing causing fear; till the destruction which has been fixed is let loose on him who has made waste.
Hanoe’e fañina mijadoñe amy màroy ho ami’ty hereñandro raike; fe añivo’ i hereñandroy re ro hampijihetse i soroñey naho i engay, le añ’elan-draha tiva ty hampangoakoahe’e, ampara’ te nadoañe amy mpampangoakey i famongorañe nafetsey.
