Daniel 8
1 In the third year of the reign of king Baltasar, a vision appeared to me. I Daniel, after what I had seen in the beginning,
Tamin’ ny taona fahatelo nanjakan’ i Belsazara mpanjaka dia nisy fahitana niseho tamiko, izaho Daniela, taorian’ ilay niseho tamiko tamin’ ny voalohany.
2 Saw in my vision when I was in the castle of Susa, which is in the province of Elam: and I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai.
Ary nahita tamin’ ny fahitana aho, ka raha mbola nijery aho, dia, indro, tao Sosana tao amin’ ny lapan’ ny mpanjaka izay ao amin’ ny tany Elama aho; ary nahita tamin’ ny fahitana aho, ka teo amoron’ ny ony Olay aho.
3 And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold a ram stood before the water, having two high horns, and one higher than the other, and growing up. Afterward
Dia natopiko ny masoko, ka hitako, fa, indro, nisy ondrilahy iray nitsangana teo amoron’ ny ony, izay nanana tandroka roa; lava ireo tandroka ireo, ary ny anankiray lava noho ny anankiray, nefa ilay lavalava kokoa no niposaka taoriana.
4 I saw the ram pushing with his horns against the west, and against the north, and against the south: and no beasts could withstand him, nor be delivered out of his hand: and he did according to his own will, and became great.
Hitako ny ondrilahy manoto miankandrefana sy mianavaratra ary mianatsimo; ary tsy nisy biby nahajanona teo anoloany, ary tsy nisy naharombaka izay mby teny an-tanany; fa nanao araka izay sitrapony izy ka tonga lehibe.
5 And I understood: and behold a he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and he touched not the ground, and the he goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
Ary raha mbola nandinika aho, dia, indro, nisy osilahy nivoaka avy tany andrefana ka nitety ny tany rehetra, nefa tsy nikasika ny tany; ary ilay osilahy dia nanana tandroka lehibe teo anelanelan’ ny masony.
6 And he went up 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.
Ary izy nankeo amin’ ilay ondrilahy nanana tandroka roa, dia ilay efa hitako nitsangana eo amoron’ ny ony, ka nanazakazaka azy tamin’ ny fahatezeran’ ny heriny.
7 And when he was come near the ram, he was enraged against him, and 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 stamped upon him, and none could deliver the ram out of his hand.
Ary hitako nanatona ho eo anilan’ ny ondrilahy izy, dia nisafoaka taminy ka namely ny ondrilahy ary nanapaka ny tandrony roa, ka tsy nahajanona teo anoloany intsony ilay ondrilahy, fa nazerany teo amin’ ny tany ka nohitsakitsahiny; ary tsy nisy nahavonjy ilay ondrilahy teny an-tànany.
8 And the he goat became exceeding great: and when he was grown, the great horn was broken, and there came up four horns under it towards the four winds of heaven.
Ary dia nihahery indrindra ilay osilahy; nefa nony nahery izy, dia tapaka ilay tandrony lehibe; ary nisy efatra lehibe nipoitra nisolo iny nifanandrify tamin’ ny rivotra efatry ny lanitra.
9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn: and it became great against the south, and against the east, and against the strength.
Ary nisy tandroka kely nipoitra avy tamin’ ny anankiray amin’ ireny ka nihalehibe indrindra nianatsimo sy niantsinanana ary nankany amin’ ny tany mahafinaritra.
10 And it was magnified even unto the strength of heaven: and it threw down of the strength, and of the stars, and trod upon them.
Ary nihalehibe izy ka nihatra tamin’ ireo maro be eny amin’ ny lanitra; ary nisy nazerany ho amin’ ny tany ireo maro be sy ny kintana ka nohitsakitsahiny.
11 And it was magnified even to the prince of the strength: and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary.
Eny, nihalehibe izy ka dia niady tamin’ ny Komandin’ ireo maro be, ary nesorina taminy ny fanatitra isan’ andro, ary ny fitoerana masìna noravana.
12 And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper.
Ary nisy maro be mbamin’ ny fanatitra isan’ andro natolotra azy noho ny fahadisoana, dia nazerany ho amin’ ny tany ny fahamarinana; ary niasa izy sady nambinina.
13 And I heard one of the saints speaking, and one saint said to another, I know not to whom that was speaking: How long shall be the vision, concerning the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation that is made: and the sanctuary, and the strength be trodden under foot?
Dia nandre ny masìna anankiray niteny aho, ary nisy masìna iray koa nanao tamin’ ilay niteny hoe: Mandra-pahoviana ny fahitana mandrakariva sy ny fahotana mahatonga fandravana mba hanolorana ny fitoerana masìna sy ireo maro be ho fanitsaka?
14 And he said to him: Unto evening and morning two thousand three hundred days: and the sanctuary shall be cleansed.
Ary hoy izy tamiko: Taon-jato sy roa arivo andro; ary nony afaka izany, dia amin’ izay vao hodiovina ny fitoerana masìna.
15 And it came to pass when I Daniel saw the vision, and sought the meaning, that behold there stood before me as it were the appearance of a man.
Ary nony nahita ny fahitana izaho Daniela ka nitady hahafantatra izany, dia, indro, nisy nanana tarehy tahaka ny olona nitsangana teo anatrehako.
16 And I heard the voice of a man between Ulai: and he called, and said: Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
Ary nandre feon’ olona tao afovoan’ i Olay aho, izay niantso ka nanao hoe: Ry Gabriela, ampahalalao ny fahitana ity lehilahy ity.
17 And he came and stood near where I stood: and when he was come, I fell on my face trembling, and he said to me: Understand, O son of man, for in the time of the end the vision shall be fulfilled.
Ary dia nankeo amin’ ilay nitsanganako izy; ary nony tonga izy, dia raiki-tahotra aho ka nikarapoka nihohoka; nefa hoy izy tamiko: Aoka ho fantatrao, ry zanak’ olona, fa io fahitana io dia milaza ny farany.
18 And when he spoke to me I fell flat on the ground: and he touched me, and set me upright,
Ary raha niresaka tamiko izy, dia renoky ny torimaso teo amin’ ny tany aho; fa izy nanohina nampitsangana ahy.
19 And he said to me: I will shew thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end.
Dia hoy izy: Indro, hampahafantariko anao izay ho tonga amin’ ny fahatezerana farany; fa ho amin’ ny fotoana any am-parany izany.
20 The ram, which thou sawest with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians.
Ilay ondrilahy hitanao nanana tandroka roa dia ny mpanjakan’ i Media sy Persia.
21 And the he goat, is the king of the Greeks, and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king.
Ary ny osilahy lava volo dia ny mpanjakan’ i Grisia; ary ny tandroka lehibe teo anelanelan’ ny masony dia ny mpanjaka voalohany.
22 But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength.
Ary ny amin’ ilay efa tapaka, ka nisy efatra nitsangana nandimby azy, dia hisy fanjakana efatra hitsangana avy amin’ ny jentilisa, nefa tsy mitovy hery aminy.
23 And after their reign, when iniquities shall be grown up, there shall arise a king of a shameless face, and understanding dark sentences.
Ary ny hiafaran’ ny fanjakany, rehefa tanteraky ny mpanota ny asany, dia hisy mpanjaka hitsangana, izay masia-tarehy sy mahafantatra zavatra saro-pantarina.
24 And his power shall be strengthened, but not by his own force: and he shall lay all things waste, and shall prosper, and do more than can be believed. And he shall destroy the mighty, and the people of the saints,
Ary ho be ny heriny, nefa tsy amin’ ny herin’ ny tenany; ary mahagaga ny fanimbana hataony; ary hambinina izy ka hahefa ary hanimba ny mahery sy ny olo-masìna.
25 According to his will, and craft shall be successful in his hand: and his heart shall be puffed up, and in the abundance of all things he shall kill many: and he shall rise up against the prince of princes, and shall be broken without hand.
Ary ny fahafetseny koa no hahatanteraka ny fitaka eny an-tanany; ary izy hiavonavona am-po ka handringana ny maro amin’ izay tsy ampoiziny; ary hitsangana hanohitra ny Andrianan’ ny andriana izy, kanjo ho torotoro kosa, nefa tsy hisy tanana hamely azy tsinona.
26 And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true: thou therefore seal up the vision, because it shall come to pass after many days.
Ary dia marina ny amin’ ireo andro voalaza ireo, nefa ahorony ny fahitana, fa mbola ho andro maro izany.
27 And I Daniel languished, and was sick for some days: and when I was risen up, I did the king’s business, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none that could interpret it.
Ary izaho Daniela dia torana ka nandraiky narary andro vitsivitsy; ary nony afaka izany dia nitsangana aho ka nanao ny raharahan’ ny mpanjaka; ary ka aho ny amin’ ny fahitana, nefa tsy nisy nahafantatra izany.
