Daniel 8
1 In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision appeared unto me, [even] to me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.
Mwen menm Danyèl, mwen fè yon lòt vizyon ankò apre premye vizyon sa a. Lè sa a, Bèlchaza t'ap mache sou twazan depi li te wa.
2 And I saw in the vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was in the fortress of Shushan, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai.
Nan vizyon an, mwen wè mwen te lavil Souz, kapital la ki nan pwovens Elam lan. Mwen te kanpe bò larivyè Oulayi.
3 And I lifted up mine eyes and saw, and behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns; and the two horns were high; and one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
Mwen leve je m' gade, mwen wè yon belye mouton ki te kanpe bò larivyè a. Li te gen de kòn byen long ki pa t' pouse menm lè. Sa ki te pouse apre a te pi long pase premye a.
4 I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no beast could stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; and he did according to his will, and became great.
Mwen wè belye mouton an t'ap bay kout kòn nan direksyon solèy kouche, nan direksyon nò ak nan direksyon sid. Pat gen yon bèt ki te ka kenbe tèt avè l'. Ni pa t' gen pesonn pou wete yo anba pat li. Li t'ap fè sa l' pito. Chak lè, li t'ap vin pi awogan.
5 And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat came from the west over the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
Antan mwen t'ap chache konprann sa sa te vle di, mwen wè yon bouk kabrit k'ap kouri vin soti bò solèy kouche. Li t'ap kouri sitèlman vit, pye l' pa t' touche tè. Li te gen yon sèl gwo kòn nan mitan de je l' yo.
6 And he came to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran upon him in the fury of his power.
Li mache sou belye mouton mwen te wè kanpe bò larivyè a ak de kòn lan. Li vare sou li ak tout fòs.
7 And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged with him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; and he cast him down to the ground, and trampled upon him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.
Mwen wè l' atake belye mouton an. Li move sou li, li frape l', li kase de kòn li yo. Belye mouton an pa t' gen fòs pou kenbe tèt ak li. Bouk kabrit la jete l' atè, li pilonnen l' anba pye l'. Pat gen pesonn pou wete belye a anba pat bouk kabrit la.
8 And the he-goat became exceeding great; but when he was become strong, the great horn was broken; and in its stead came up four notable ones toward the four winds of the heavens.
Bouk kabrit la konmanse grandi, li vin awogan anpil. Lè li fin chita pouvwa li byen chita, gwo kòn li an kase. Kat lòt gwo kòn pouse nan plas premye a, yo chak t'ap pwente nan direksyon kat gwo van yo.
9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which became exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beauty [of the earth].
Yon ti kòn pouse sou yonn nan kòn sa yo. Li grandi, li mache fè lagè ak moun peyi nan sid la, moun peyi bò solèy leve a ak moun peyi ki pi bèl pase tout lòt yo.
10 And it became great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down [some] of the host and of the stars to the ground, and trampled upon them.
Li grandi toujou, jouk li rive atake lame ki nan syèl la, zetwal yo menm. Li jete kèk ladan yo sou latè, li pilonnen yo anba pye l'.
11 (And he magnified [himself] even to the prince of the host, and from him the continual [sacrifice] was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
Li grandi, li menm rive atake chèf lame ki nan syèl la, li fè yo sispann ofri bèt pou touye pou li. Li fè kraze Tanp yo te mete apa pou li a.
12 And a time of trial was appointed unto the continual [sacrifice] by reason of transgression.) And it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised and prospered.
Li fè sòlda lame li yo al moute kan yo kote yo te konn ofri bèt pou touye pou Bondye a. Ti kòn lan voye bon relijyon Bondye a jete atè, li te rive nan tou sa l'ap fè.
13 And I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that one who spoke, How long shall be the vision of the continual [sacrifice] and of the transgression that maketh desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden down under foot?
Apre sa, mwen tande yon zanj pale ak yon lòt zanj, li di li: -Kilè sa yo bay nan vizyon an va rive? Kilè y'a sispann fè gwo peche sa a nan plas ofrann bèt ki pou fèt chak jou a? Kilè y'a sispann pilonnen lame ki nan syèl la ak tanp Bondye a anba pye yo?
14 And he said unto me, Until two thousand and three hundred evenings [and] mornings: then shall the sanctuary be vindicated.
Lòt zanj lan reponn: -Se pou nou tann mil sansenkant (1150) jou ankò pase anvan yo rekonmanse ak ofrann bèt pou Bondye yo. Se lè sa a Bondye va rebati tanp li a ankò.
15 And it came to pass, when I Daniel had seen the vision, I sought for the understanding of it, and behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.
Mwen t'ap chache konprann sa vizyon an te vle di, lè mwen rete konsa mwen wè yon fòm ki te sanble ak yon moun kanpe devan m'.
16 And I heard a man's voice between [the banks of] the Ulai; and he called and said, Gabriel, make this [man] to understand the vision.
Mwen tande yon vwa moun ki soti lòt bò larivyè Oulayi a ki t'ap di: -Gabriyèl! Esplike nonm sa a vizyon an non!
17 And he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was afraid, and fell on my face; and he said unto me, Understand, son of man; for the vision is for the time of the end.
Gabriyèl pwoche bò kote m' te ye a. Mwen te sitèlman pè mwen tonbe fas atè. Li di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Konprann byen: Vizyon an fè ou konnen ki jan sa pral fini sou latè.
18 Now, as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep stupor, with my face toward the ground. And he touched me, and set me up where I had stood.
Pandan li t'ap pale konsa, mwen pèdi konesans, mwen tonbe fas atè. Men, li ban m' men, li fè m' kanpe sou pye m' ankò.
19 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be at the end of the indignation: for at the set time the end shall be.
Epi li di: -M'ap fè ou wè sa k'ap rive lè kòlè Bondye a va fin pase. Wi, lè pou tout bagay fini an pral rive.
20 The ram that thou sawest having the two horns: they are the kings of Media and Persia.
Belye mouton ou te wè ak de gwo kòn nan tèt li a, se de wa k'ap gouvènen de peyi, peyi Medi ak peyi Pès.
21 And the rough goat is the king of Greece; and the great horn that was between his eyes is the first king.
Bouk kabrit la menm se wa peyi Lagrès la. Gwo kòn ou te wè nan mitan je l' yo se te premye wa a.
22 Now that being broken, whereas four stood up in its stead, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.
Kat kòn ou wè ki te pouse apre premye kòn lan te kase a, sa vle di gen kat moun ki pral separe peyi a. Yo chak pral gouvènen bò pa yo. Men, peyi a p'ap janm gen menm fòs la ankò.
23 And at the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors shall have come to the full, a king of bold countenance, and understanding riddles, shall stand up.
Lè ti wa sa yo va rive nan bout yo, lè y'a fin fè kont peche yo, gen yon wa k'ap parèt, l'ap san respè pou Bondye, l'ap woule tout moun.
24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy marvellously, and shall prosper, and shall practise, and shall destroy the mighty ones, and the people of the saints.
L'ap grandi, l'ap vin fò. Men se pa fòs pa l' menm k'ap sou li. L'ap fè anpil dega. L'a reyisi nan tou sa l'ap fè. L'a kraze anpil gwo chèf ansanm ak anpil moun nan pèp Bondye a.
25 And through his cunning shall he cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he will magnify [himself] in his heart, and by prosperity will corrupt many; and he will stand up against the Prince of princes: but he shall be broken without hand.
L'ap rize anpil. L'a reyisi chak fwa l'ap twonpe moun. L'ap fè lwanj tèt li. San bay avètisman, l'ap detwi anpil moun ki t'ap viv ak kè poze. L'ap atake ata pi gwo chèf la, chèf tout chèf yo. Men li menm, rive yon lè l'ap disparèt, san se pa ankenn moun ki fè l' anyen.
26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which hath been told is true; but close thou up the vision, for it is for many days [to come].
Vizyon ou te fè pou maten ak aswè yo gen pou rive vre jan yo te esplike ou li a. Men, pa di anyen sou sa, paske l'ap pran yon bon ti tan anvan li rive vre.
27 And I Daniel fainted, and was sick [certain] days: then I rose up, and did the king's business. And I was astonished at the vision, but none understood [it].
Lè sa a, mwen santi mwen t'ap faya. Mwen pase kèk jou malad. Apre sa, mwen leve, m' al fè travay wa a te ban m' fè a. Men, vizyon an t'ap boulvèse lespri m' toujou, m' pa t' ka konprann li.
