< Daniel 8 >

1 In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision appeared to me. After that which I had seen in the beginning, I, Daniel,
E higa mar adek mar loch mar ruoth Belshazar, an Daniel, naneno fweny, bangʼ fweny mane aseneno mokwongo.
2 saw in my vision, that I was in the capital city of Susa, which is in the region of Elam, yet I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai.
E fwenynano ne aneno ka an e ohinga mar rito dala mar Susa e gwengʼ mar Elam kendo ka an e bath aora mar Ulai.
3 And I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, a single ram stood before the marsh, having two high horns, and one was higher than the other and growing higher still.
Natingʼo wangʼa mi aneno im moro man-gi tunge ariyo, kuchungʼ e bath aora kendo tungene ne boyo. Achiel kuom tungenego ne bor moloyo mano mane otwi achien.
4 After this, I saw the ram brandishing his horns against the West, and against the North, and against the Meridian, and all the beasts could not withstand him, nor be freed from his hand, and he did according to his own will, and he became great.
Naketo wangʼa ka aneno kaka imno ringo kochomo yo podho chiengʼ, gi yo nyandwat kod yo milambo. Onge le moro amora mane nyalo sire, kata mane nyalo resore kuom tekone. Notimo kaka en ema ohero, kendo nodoko rahuma.
5 And I understood, and behold, a he-goat among she-goats came from the West above the face of the entire earth, and he did not touch the ground. Furthermore, the he-goat had a preeminent horn between his eyes.
Kane oyudo pod aparo tiend wachni, to apoya nono nywok moro man-gi tunge mabitho motwi e kind wengene nobiro koa yo podho chiengʼ kowuotho e piny ngima ma tiendene ok nyon lowo.
6 And he went all the way to the ram that had the horns, which I had seen standing before the gate, and he ran towards him in the force of his strength.
Nobiro kochomo im man-gi tunge ariyo mane aseneno kochungʼ e bath aora, kendo nochome gi ngʼwech tir ka en gi mirima mager.
7 And when he approached near to the ram, he was enraged against him, and he struck the ram, and broke his two horns, and the ram could not withstand him, and when he had cast him down on the ground, he trampled him, and no one was able to free the ram from his hand.
Nanene komonjo im gi tekre duto, kendo nochwoye momuko tungene duto ariyo. Im ne onge teko ma dimi ochungʼ e nyime kendo nywogno nogoye piny e lowo monyone piny, to onge ngʼama ne nyalo reso im mi gol e tekone.
8 But the he-goat among she-goats became exceedingly great, and when he had prospered, the great horn was shattered, and four horns were rising up beneath it by means of the four winds of heaven.
Nywogno nomedo bedo gi teko, to kata obedo ni ne en ratego kamano, to tunge maduongʼno notur mi tunge angʼwen mamoko notwi kanyo kamoro ka moro siemo tunge angʼwen mag polo.
9 But from one of them came forth one little horn, and it became great against the Meridian, and against the East, and against the strength.
Bangʼe tungʼ moro nochako otwi koa kuom tunge angʼwen-go, nochako kotin to bangʼe achien nodongo ka en gi teko kochomo yo milambo gi yo wuok chiengʼ kod yo Piny Maber mar Israel.
10 And it was magnified even towards the strength of heaven, and it threw down those of the strength and of the stars, and it trampled them.
Tekone nomedore mochopo nyaka e kor polo, kendo nowito sulwe moko e piny mi onyonogi.
11 And it was magnified, even to the leader of the strength, and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary.
Nopiem gi jatend ogendini mag polo, nomiyo misengini mane itimone jatelono orumo kendo kare maler mar lemo bende nokethi.
12 And the advantage was given to him against the continual sacrifice, because of the sins, and truth will be struck down to the ground, and he will act, and he will prosper.
Nikech ngʼanyone, oganda mar joler kod misengni mitimo pile ka pile noket e lwete. Gimoro amora mane otimo ne odhi maber, kendo adiera nojwangʼ.
13 And I heard one of the holy ones speaking, and one saint said to another, (I know not to whom he was speaking, ) “What is the extent of the vision, and the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation, which has happened, and of the sanctuary and the strength, which will be trampled?”
Eka nawinjo malaika moro kapenjo malaika wadgi niya, “Biro kawo kinde marom nadi mondo fwenyni ochop kare; ma en fweny man kuom misengini mitimo pile ka pile, gi ngʼanyo makelo kethruok, gi ketho kama ler mar lemo kod nyono oganda mar Jehova Nyasaye piny?”
14 And he said to him, “From evening until morning, two thousand three hundred days, and so the sanctuary will be cleansed.”
Nowachona niya, “Fwenyno biro kawo ndalo alufu ariyo mia adek odiechiengʼ gotieno; eka kama ler mar lemo nopwodhi kendo.”
15 But it came to pass, when I, Daniel, saw the vision and sought understanding that, behold, there stood in my sight something like the appearance of a man.
An, Daniel, kane oyudo pod aparo kuom wachni kendo angʼe tiende, napo kaneno gima chalo gi dhano kochungʼ e nyima.
16 And I heard the voice of a man within Ulai, and he called out and said, “Gabriel, make this one understand the vision.”
Eka nawinjo ngʼato kaluongo koa yo aora Ulai niya, “Gabriel, nyis ngʼatni tiend fweny mosenenono.”
17 And he came and stood next to where I was standing, and when he approached, I fell on my face, trembling, and he said to me, “Understand, son of man, for in the time of the end the vision will be fulfilled.”
Kane osudo but kama ne achungʼe, luoro nomaka mine apodho piny auma. To nowachona niya, “Wuod dhano, bed gi ngʼeyo ni fweny misenenoni wuoyo kuom ndalo giko.”
18 And when he spoke to me, I fell forward onto the ground, and so he touched me and stood me upright.
Kane pod owuoyo koda ka akulo wiya piny, nindo matut notera. Eka nomula mi ochunga malo.
19 And he said to me, “I will reveal to you what the future things are in the earlier tribulation, for the time has its end.
Nowacho ni: “Adwaro nyisi gigo mabiro timore e kinde mag masiche, nikech fweny mosenyisini nyiso gik mabiro timore e ndalo giko.
20 The ram, which you saw to have horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians.
Im matunge ariyo mane inenono ochungʼ kar ruodhi mag Media gi Pasia.
21 Furthermore, the he-goat among she-goats is the king of the Greeks, and the great horn, which was between his eyes, is the same one, the first king.
Nywok moyugnono en ruodh jo-Yunani, to tung marangʼongo manie pat wangʼe e ruoth mokwongo.
22 And since, having been shattered, there grew four in its place, four kings will rise up from his people, but not in his strength.
Tunge angʼwen mane okaw kar mano mane omuk oko ochungʼ kar pinjeruodhi angʼwen mabiro chakore e pinye to ok bi bedo gi teko marom gi mare.
23 And after their reign, when iniquities will be increased, there will arise a king of shameless face and understanding negotiations.
“E kinde ma lochgi chiegni rumo, jongʼanyo notim timbe maricho mogik, ruoth moro nobi ma wangʼe tek kendo matimo gik maricho.
24 And his advantage will be strengthened, but not by his kind of force, and other than what he will be able to trust, everything will be eradicated, and he will prosper, and he will act. And he will execute the successful and the people of the saints,
Nodok maratego ahinya, to ok gi tekre owuon. Enokel kethruok maduongʼ kendo enolochi e gimoro amora motimo. Enotiek joma roteke kod jomaler.
25 according to his will, and treachery will be guided by his hand. And his heart will be inflated, and by the abundance of everything he will kill many, and he will rise up against the Lord of lords, and he will be knocked down without a hand.
Obiro miyo miriambo medore, kendo obiro kawore ni oyombo ji. E seche ma giparo ni gidhi maber, obiro nego ji mangʼeny kendo obiro chungʼ mondo oked gi Ruoth mar ruodhi. Kata kamano ibiro tieke, to ok gi teko mar dhano.
26 And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true. Therefore, you must seal the vision, because, after many days, it will occur.”
“Fweny mag okinyi godhiambo mosenyisi gin adier, to kik ihulgi ni ngʼato nikech gin gik mabiro timore bangʼe e ndalo mabiro.”
27 And I, Daniel, languished and was sick for some days, and when I had lifted myself up, I performed the king’s works, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none who could interpret it.
An Daniel, tekra norumo, kendo nabedo matuo kuom ndalo mangʼeny. Eka ne achungo malo, kendo adhi nyime gi tije ruoth. Fweny mane aneno nomako dhoga; kendo ne ok anyal winjo tiende maber.
