Daniel 11
1 Also I, in ye first yere of Darius of ye Medes, euen I stood to incourage and to strengthen him.

2 And now wil I shew thee ye trueth, Behold, there shall stand vp yet three Kings in Persia, and the fourth shall be farre richer then they all: and by his strength, and by his riches he shall stirre vp all against the realme of Grecia.
“Azɔ la, magblɔ nyateƒe la na wò. Fia etɔ̃ agava zi dzi le Persia, enelia akplɔ wo ɖo, ame si akpɔ hotsui wu fia siwo katã do ŋgɔ nɛ. Ne eva kpɔ ŋusẽ to eƒe hotsuikpɔkpɔ me la, ade adã ta me na amewo katã ɖe Grik fiaɖuƒe la ŋu.
3 But a mightie King shall stand vp, that shall rule with great dominion, and doe according to his pleasure.
Emegbe fia sesẽ aɖe ava zi dzi, ame si aɖu fia kple asi sesẽ eye wòawɔ nu sia nu si adze eŋu.
4 And when he shall stand vp, his kingdome shall be broken, and shall be deuided towarde the foure windes of heauen: and not to his posteritie, nor according to his dominion, which he ruled: for his kingdome shall be pluckt vp, euen to be for others besides those.

5 And ye King of ye South shalbe mightie, and one of his princes, and shall preuaile against him, and beare rule: his dominio shalbe a great dominion.
“Dziehefia akpɔ ŋusẽ ɖe edzi gake eƒe aʋafiawo dometɔ ɖeka akpɔ ŋusẽ wui gɔ̃ hã eye wòaɖu fia ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe fiaɖuƒe dzi kple ŋusẽ triakɔ.
6 And in the ende of yeeres they shalbe ioyned together: for the Kings daughter of ye South shall come to the King of the North to make an agreement, but she shall not reteine the power of the arme, neither shall he continue, nor his arme: but she shall be deliuered to death, and they that brought her, and he that begate her, and he that comforted her in these times.

7 But out of the bud of her rootes shall one stand vp in his stead, which shall come with an armie, and shall enter into the fortresse of the King of the North, and doe with them as he list, and shall preuaile,

8 And shall also carie captiues into Egypt their gods with their molten images, and with their precious vessels of siluer and of golde, and he shall continue more yeeres then the King of the North.

10 Wherefore his sonnes shall be stirred vp, and shall assemble a mightie great armie: and one shall come, and ouerflowe, and passe through: then shall he returne, and be stirred vp at his fortresse.

11 And the King of the South shall be angrie, and shall come foorth, and fight with him, euen with the King of the North: for he shall set foorth a great multitude, and the multitude shall be giuen into his hand.
“Tete Dziehefia atsɔ dziku helĩhelĩ awɔ aʋa kple Anyiehefia, ame si ava kple aʋakɔ gã aɖe gake woaɖu edzi.
12 Then the multitude shall be proude, and their heart shall be lifted vp: for hee shall cast downe thousands: but he shall not still preuaile.

13 For the King of the North shall returne, and shall set foorth a greater multitude then afore, and shall come foorth (after certeine yeeres) with a mightie armie, and great riches.

14 And at the same time there shall many stand vp against the King of the South: also the rebellious children of thy people shall exalt them selues to establish the vision, but they shall fall.
“Le ŋkeke mawo me la, ame geɖewo atso ɖe Dziehefia ŋuti. Ame dzeaglã siwo le woawo ŋutɔ ƒe amewo dome la adze aglã le ŋutega la ƒe nya nu gake womaɖu dzi o.
15 So the King of the North shall come, and cast vp a mount, and take the strong citie: and the armes of the South shall not resist, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.

17 Againe he shall set his face to enter with the power of his whole kingdome, and his confederates with him: thus shall he doe, and he shall giue him the daughter of women, to destroy her: but she shall not stande on his side, neither bee for him.

18 After this shall he turne his face vnto the yles, and shall take many, but a prince shall cause his shame to light vpon him, beside that he shall cause his owne shame to turne vpon himselfe.

20 Then shall stand vp in his place in the glorie of the kingdome, one that shall raise taxes: but after fewe dayes he shall be destroyed, neither in wrath, nor in battell.

21 And in his place shall stand vp a vile person, to whom they shall not giue the honour of the kingdome: but he shall come in peaceably, and obteine the kingdome by flatteries.
“Ame ɖigbɔ̃ aɖe ava ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe, ame si womatsɔ fianyenye ƒe bubu na o. Ke ne ameawo nɔ anyi le dedinɔnɔ me bɔkɔɔ la, ava ƒo ɖe wo dzi le vo me le fiaɖuƒe la me eye wòaxɔe to ayemɔ dzi.

23 And after the league made with him, he shall worke deceitfully: for he shall come vp, and ouercome with a small people.

24 He shall enter into the quiet and plentifull prouince, and he shall doe that which his fathers haue not done, nor his fathers fathers: he shall deuide among them the pray and the spoyle, and the substance, yea, and he shall forecast his deuises against the strong holdes, euen for a time.

25 Also he shall stirre vp his power and his courage against the King of the South with a great armie, and the King of the South shall be stirred vp to battell with a very great and mightie armie: but he shall not stand: for they shall forecast and practise against him.
“Atsɔ aʋakɔ gã aɖe ade dzo eƒe ŋusẽ kple dzideƒo me ɖe Dziehefia ŋu. Dziehefia la akpe aʋa kplii kple aʋakɔ gã sesẽ dranyi aɖe gake mate ŋu anɔ te ɖe enu o, le nugbe si wòɖo ɖe eŋu la ta.
26 Yea, they that feede of the portion of his meate, shall destroy him: and his armie shall ouerflowe: and many shall fall, and be slaine.

30 For the shippes of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shalbe sorie and returne, and freat against the holy couenant: so shall he doe, he shall euen returne and haue intelligence with them that forsake the holy couenant.

31 And armes shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the Sanctuarie of strength, and shall take away the dayly sacrifice, and they shall set vp the abominable desolation.

33 And they that vnderstand among the people, shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by sword, and by flame, by captiuitie and by spoile many dayes.

36 And the King shall doe what him list: he shall exalt himselfe, and magnifie himselfe against all, that is God, and shall speake marueilous things against ye God of gods, and shall prosper, till ye wrath be accomplished: for ye determination is made.
