< 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 realm of the Chaldeans,
V prvem letu Dareja, sina Ahasvérja, iz rodu Medijcev, ki je bil postavljen za kralja nad območjem Kaldejcev,
2 in the first year of his reign, I Daniel understood by the books that the number of the years, whereof the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah the prophet, for the accomplishment of the desolations of Jerusalem, was seventy years.
v prvem letu njegovega kraljevanja sem jaz, Daniel, po knjigah razumel število let, o čemer je Gospodova beseda prišla preroku Jeremiju, da bo dovršil sedemdeset let v opustošenjih Jeruzalema.
3 And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes;
Svoj obraz sem naravnal h Gospodu Bogu, da [ga] iščem z molitvijo, ponižnimi prošnjami, postom, vrečevino in pepelom.
4 and I prayed unto Jehovah my God, and made my confession, and said, Alas Lord! the great and terrible God, keeping covenant and loving-kindness with them that love him, and that keep his commandments:
Molil sem h Gospodu, svojemu Bogu in naredil svoje priznanje ter rekel: »Oh Gospod, velik in grozen Bog, ki ohranja zavezo in usmiljenje tistim, ki ga ljubijo in tistim, ki se držijo njegovih zapovedi.
5 we have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even turning aside from thy commandments and from thine ordinances.
Grešili smo in zagrešili krivičnost, počeli zlobno in se uprli, celo z odhajanjem od tvojih predpisov in od tvojih sodb.
6 And we have not hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, who spoke in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
Niti nismo prisluhnili tvojim služabnikom prerokom, ki so v tvojem imenu govorili našim kraljem, našim princem in našim očetom in vsemu ljudstvu dežele.
7 Thine, O Lord, is the righteousness, but unto us confusion of face, as at this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, in all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their unfaithfulness in which they have been unfaithful against thee.
Oh Gospod, pravičnost pripada tebi, toda nam zmešnjava obrazov, kakor na ta dan; možem iz Juda in prebivalcem Jeruzalema in vsemu Izraelu, ki so blizu in ki so daleč, po vseh deželah, kamor si jih pognal zaradi njihovega prekrška, ki so ga zagrešili zoper tebe.
8 O Lord, unto us is confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
Oh Gospod, nam pripada osramotitev obrazov, našim kraljem, našim princem in našim očetom, ker smo grešili zoper tebe.
9 With the Lord our God are mercies and pardons, for we have rebelled against him;
Gospodu, našemu Bogu, pripadajo usmiljenja in odpuščanja, čeprav smo grešili zoper njega,
10 and we have not hearkened unto the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us through his servants the prophets.
niti se nismo pokoravali glasu Gospoda, svojega Boga, da se ravnamo po njegovih postavah, ki jih je postavil pred nami po svojih služabnikih prerokih.
11 And all Israel have transgressed thy law, even turning aside so as not to listen unto thy voice. And the curse hath been poured out upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God: for we have sinned against him.
Da, ves Izrael je prekršil pravila tvoje postave, celo z odhajanjem, da ne bi ubogali tvojega glasu. Zato je nad nas izlito prekletstvo in prisega, ki je zapisana v postavi Božjega služabnika Mojzesa, ker smo grešili zoper njega.
12 And he hath performed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil; so that there hath not been done under the whole heaven as hath been done upon Jerusalem.
In on je potrdil svoje besede, ki jih je govoril zoper nas in zoper naše sodnike, ki so nas sodili, s tem, da je nad nas privedel veliko zlo, kajti pod celotnim nebom se ni zgodilo, kakor se je zgodilo nad Jeruzalemom.
13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us; yet we besought not Jehovah our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.
Kakor je to zapisano v Mojzesovi postavi, je vse to zlo prišlo nad nas, vendar nismo opravili svoje molitve pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom, da bi se lahko obrnili od svojih krivičnosti in razumeli tvojo resnico.
14 And Jehovah hath watched over the evil, and brought it upon us; for Jehovah our God is righteous in all his works which he hath done; and we have not hearkened unto his voice.
Zato je Gospod bedel nad zlom in ga privedel nad nas, kajti Gospod, naš Bog, je pravičen v vseh svojih delih, ki jih počne, kajti nismo ubogali njegovega glasu.
15 — And now, O Lord our God, who broughtest thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thee a name, as it is this day, — we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
Sedaj, oh Gospod, naš Bog, ki si svoje ljudstvo z mogočno roko privedel iz egiptovske dežele in si si pridobil ugled kakor na ta dan; grešili smo, počeli smo zlobno.
16 Lord, according to all thy righteousnesses, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain; for because of our sins, and because of the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people [are become] a reproach to all round about us.
Oh Gospod, glede na vso tvojo pravičnost te rotim, naj bo tvoja jeza in tvoja razjarjenost obrnjena proč od tvojega mesta, Jeruzalema, tvoje svete gore, ker so zaradi naših grehov in zaradi krivičnosti naših očetov Jeruzalem in tvoje ljudstvo postali graja vsem, ki so okoli nas.
17 And now, our God, hearken to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.
Zdaj torej, oh naš Bog, prisluhni molitvi svojega služabnika in njegovim ponižnim prošnjam in povzroči svojemu obrazu, da zasije nad tvojim svetiščem, ki je zapuščeno zaradi Gospoda.
18 Incline thine ear, O my God, and hear; open thine eyes and behold our desolations, and the city that is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee because of our righteousnesses, but because of thy manifold mercies.
Oh moj Bog, nagni svoje uho in prisluhni. Odpri svoje oči in glej naša opustošenja in mesto, ki je imenovano s tvojim imenom, kajti ne predstavljamo svojih ponižnih prošenj pred teboj zaradi svoje pravičnosti, temveč zaradi tvojih velikih usmiljenj.
19 Lord, hear! Lord, forgive! Lord, hearken and do! defer not, for thine own sake, O my God! for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.
Oh Gospod, prisluhni; oh Gospod, odpusti; oh Gospod, prisluhni in stôri. Ne odlašaj zaradi sebe, oh moj Bog, kajti tvoje mesto in tvoje ljudstvo se imenujeta po tvojem imenu.«
20 And whilst I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before Jehovah my God for the holy mountain of my God;
Medtem ko sem govoril in molil ter priznaval svoj greh in greh svojega ljudstva Izraela in predstavljal svojo ponižno prošnjo pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom, za sveto goro svojega Boga;
21 whilst I was yet speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, flying swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
da, medtem ko sem govoril v molitvi, je celo mož Gabriel, ki sem ga videl v videnju na začetku, naglo priletel in se me dotaknil ob času večerne daritve.
22 And he informed [me], and talked with me, and said, Daniel, I am now come forth to make thee skilful of understanding.
Poučil me je, govoril z menoj in rekel: »Oh Daniel, sedaj sem prišel, da ti dam znanje in razumevanje.
23 At the beginning of thy supplications the word went forth, and I am come to declare [it]; for thou art one greatly beloved. Therefore consider the word, and have understanding in the vision:
Na začetku tvoje ponižne prošnje je prišla zapoved in prišel sem, da se ti pokažem, kajti ti si silno ljubljen, zato razumi zadevo in preudari videnje.
24 Seventy weeks are apportioned out upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to close the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make expiation for iniquity, and to bring in the righteousness of the ages, and to seal the vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies.
Sedemdeset tednov je določenih nad tvojim ljudstvom in nad tvojim svetim mestom, da preneha prestopek in se naredi konec grehom in se naredi pobotanje za krivičnost in da se vpelje večna pravičnost in se zapečatita videnje in prerokovanje in da se mazili Najsvetejše.
25 Know therefore and understand: From the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem unto Messiah, the Prince, are seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks. The street and the moat shall be built again, even in troublous times.
Vedi torej in razumi, da bo od izida zapovedi, da se obnovi in zgradi Jeruzalem, do Mesija, Princa, sedem tednov in dvainšestdeset tednov. Ulica bo ponovno zgrajena in obzidje, celo v težkih časih.
26 And after the sixty-two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, and shall have nothing; and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with an overflow, and unto the end, war, — the desolations determined.
Po dvainšestdesetih tednih bo Mesija usmrčen, toda ne zaradi sebe; in ljudstvo princa, ki bo prišlo, bo uničilo mesto in svetišče. Njegov konec bo s poplavo in do konca so določena vojna opustošenja.
27 And he shall confirm a covenant with the many [for] one week; and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and because of the protection of abominations [there shall be] a desolator, even until that the consumption and what is determined shall be poured out upon the desolate.
Potrdil bo to zavezo z mnogimi za en teden. In v sredi tedna bo povzročil, da bo klavna daritev in jedilna daritev prenehala in zaradi razširjanja ogabnosti bo on to opustošil, celo do použitja in to določeno bo izlito na opustošenje.«
