Daniel 10
1 In the third year of the reign of King Cyrus of Persia, a message was revealed to Daniel (also called Belteshazzar). The message was certain and concerned a great conflict. He understood the message and gained understanding of the vision.
Iti maikatlo a tawen a panagturay ni Ciro nga ari ti Persia, maysa a mensahe ti naipaltiing kenni Daniel, (a maawagan pay iti Beltesazar) ket pudno daytoy a mensahe. Maipanggep daytoy iti dakkel a gubat. Naawatan ni Daniel ti mensahe idi naaddaan isuna iti pannakaawat iti sirmata.
2 When this happened, I, Daniel, had been in mourning for three full weeks.
Kadagidiay nga al-aldaw, siak a ni Daniel ket nagladladingit iti las-ud iti tallo a lawas.
3 I ate no fine food. No meat or wine passed my lips. I used no perfumed oils until those three weeks were over.
Saanak a nangnangan iti naiimas a taraon, iti karne, saanak nga immin-inom iti arak, ken saanak a nagsapsapo iti lana agingga a maturpos ti tallo a lawas.
4 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was standing on the bank of the great River Tigris.
Iti maikaduapulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti umuna a bulan, bayat ti kaaddak iti igid ti dakkel a karayan (nga isu ti Tigris),
5 I looked around and saw a man dressed in linen, and around his waist was a belt of pure gold.
timmangadak ket nakakitaak iti maysa a tao a nakakawes iti lino, nakabarikes isuna iti barikes a puro a balitok a nagtaud iti Ufaz.
6 His body shone like a jewel; his face was as bright as lightning; his eyes were like blazing torches; his arms and legs gleamed like polished bronze; and his voice sounded like the roar of a crowd.
Naraniag ti bagina a kasla iti topaz, naraniag ti rupana a kasla iti kimat, kasla umap-apuy a pagsilawan dagiti matana, kasla napasileng a gambang dagiti takkiag ken sakana, ket kasla ariwawa ti nakaad-adu a tattao ti timekna.
7 I, Daniel, was the only one to see this vision—the others with me did not see the vision, but they suddenly felt very frightened and ran away to hide themselves.
Siak laeng a ni Daniel ti nakakita iti sirmata, ta saan a nakita dagiti lallaki a kadduak ti sirmata. Nupay kasta, nagbutengda iti kasta unay, ket nagtarayda a naglemmeng.
8 I was left alone to see this wonderful vision. My strength drained away, and my face turned pale as death. I didn't have an ounce of strength left.
Isu a siak laeng ti nabati ken nakakita iti daytoy a naisangsangayan a sirmata. Napakapsutannak unay; nakabutbuteng ti panagbaliw iti naraniag a langak; ket napakapsutannak unay.
9 I heard him speaking, and when I heard his voice I lost consciousness and I lay face down on the ground.
Ket nangngegko dagiti saona - ket bayat a mangmangegko nga agsasaoda, naawananak iti puot ket natuangak a papakleb iti daga.
10 Then a hand touched me and lifted me onto my hands and knees.
Maysa nga ima ti nangsagid kaniak, ket pinagkutukotna dagiti tumengko ken pinagpigergerna dagiti imak.
11 He said to me, “Daniel, God loves you very much. Pay attention to what I'm telling you. Stand up, because I have been sent to you.” When he told me this I stood up, trembling.
Kinuna ti anghel kaniak, “Daniel, sika a tao a dungdungoen unay ti Dios, awatem dagiti sasao nga ibagbagak kenka, ket tumakderka, ta naibaonak nga umay kenka.” Idi naibagana daytoy a sao kaniak, agpigpigergerak a timmakder.
12 “Don't be afraid, Daniel,” he said. “From the first day you concentrated on trying to understand this, and to humble yourself before God, your prayer was heard, and I have come to answer you.
Ket kinunana kaniak, “Saanka nga agbuteng Daniel. Manipud idi umuna nga aldaw nga inkeddengmo a mang-awat iti sirmata ken agpakumbabaka iti sangoanan ti Diosmo, naipangag dagiti saom, ket immayak gapu kadagiti saom.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed me for twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was being detained there by the kings of Persia.
Linapdannak ti prinsipe iti pagarian ti Persia, ket nagtalinaedak sadiay kadagiti ar-ari ti Persia iti las-ud ti duapulo ket maysa nga aldaw. Ngem immaynak tinulongan ni Miguel, maysa kadagiti kangatoan a prinsipe.
14 Now I've come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the last days, for the vision is about a time in the future.”
Ita, immayak tapno tulonganka a mang-awat no ania ti mapasamak kadagiti tattaom iti maudi nga al-aldaw. Ta ti sirmata ket para kadagiti masungad pay laeng nga al-aldaw.”
15 As he told me this I remained there with my face to the ground and couldn't say a word.
Idi insaona kaniak dagitoy, nagdumogak ken saanak a makasao.
16 Then the one who looked like a human being touched my lips and I was able to speak. I told the one standing in front of me, “My lord, since I saw the vision I've been in agony and I feel really weak.
Maysa a kaas-asping ti tao ti nangsagid kadagiti bibigko, ket inungapko ti ngiwatko ket nagsaoak kenkuana a nakatakder iti sangoanak, “Apok, pinagbutengnak ti sirmata, ket napakapsutanak unay.
17 How can I, your servant, speak to you, my lord? I have no strength, and I can hardly breathe.”
Siak ket adipenmo. Kasanoak a makisao iti apok? Ta napakapsutanak unayen ket saanak a makaanges.”
18 Once again the one who looked like a human being touched me and restored my strength.
Sinagid ken pinapigsanak ti kaas-asping ti tao.
19 “Don't be afraid; God loves you very much. May you have peace! Be strong! Have courage!” As he spoke to me, I became stronger and I said, “My lord, speak to me, for you have strengthened me.”
Kinunana, “Tao nga ay-ayaten unay ti Dios, saanka nga agbuteng. Kappia koma ti adda kenka. Bumilegka ita; bumilegka!” Idi nagsao isuna kaniak, pimmigsaak ket kinunak, “Agsao koma ti apok, ta pinapigsanak.”
20 “Do you know why I've come to you?” he asked. “Shortly I will have to go back and fight the prince of Persia, and after that the prince of Greece will come.
Kinunana, “Ammom kadi no apay nga immayak kenka? Agsubliak ita tapno makirangetak a maibusor iti prinsipe ti Persia. Inton rummuarak, umayto ti prinsipe ti Grecia.
21 But before that I will tell you what is written down in the Book of Truth. No one helps me fight against these princes except Michael your prince.
Ngem ibagak kenka ti nakasurat iti Libro ti Kinapudno - awan ti siasinoman a mangipakpakita a nabilegda malaksid kaniak, malaksid kenni Miguel a prinsipeyo.”
