< Daniel 11 >
1 Also I, in ye first yere of Darius of ye Medes, euen I stood to incourage and to strengthen him.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mbere wa Dario, ũcio Mũmedia, nĩndarũgamire nake ndĩmũteithĩrĩrie na ndĩmwĩkĩre hinya.)
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.
“Na rĩu, nĩngũkwĩra ũhoro wa ma: Athamaki angĩ atatũ nĩmakarahũka a kũu Perisia, na thuutha ũcio kwarahũke ũngĩ wa kana, ũrĩa ũgaatonga gũkĩra acio angĩ othe. Na rĩrĩa akaagĩa na hinya mũnene nĩ ũndũ wa ũtonga ũcio wake, nĩakarahũra andũ othe mokĩrĩre ũthamaki wa Ũyunani.
3 But a mightie King shall stand vp, that shall rule with great dominion, and doe according to his pleasure.
Ningĩ nĩgũkarahũka mũthamaki ũngĩ ũrĩ na hinya makĩria, ũrĩa ũgaathanaga na hinya mũingĩ na ekage o ũrĩa angĩenda gwĩka.
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.
Aarĩkia kwarahũka-rĩ, ũthamaki wake nĩũgatũkana na ũgayanĩrio mĩena ĩna kũrĩa huho iria inya cia matu-inĩ ihurutanagĩra. Naguo ũthamaki wake ndũkagaywo nĩ andũ a rũciaro rwake, kana ũgĩe na hinya ta ũrĩa aarĩ naguo, tondũ ũthamaki wake nĩũgathengio uume harĩo na ũheo andũ angĩ.
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.
“Mũthamaki wa mwena wa gũthini nĩakagĩa na hinya, no ũmwe wa atongoria ake a ita nĩakagĩa na hinya kũmũkĩra, acooke gwathana ũthamaki-inĩ wake na hinya mũnene.
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.
Na rĩrĩ, mĩaka yathirathira, nĩmagacooka kũiguana. Mwarĩ wa mũthamaki ũcio wa gũthini nĩagathiĩ kũrĩ mũthamaki wa gathigathini, nĩguo magĩe na kĩrĩko kĩa ũiguano, no mũtumia ũcio ndagatũũra arĩ na hinya, o na mũthamaki ũcio na hinya wake matigaatũũra. Matukũ-inĩ macio mũtumia ũcio nĩagakunyanĩrwo ooragwo hamwe na ndungata ciake cia ũthamaki, na ithe, o na mũndũ ũrĩa wamũteithagĩrĩria.
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,
“Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũmwe wa rũciaro rwake nĩakarahũka ithenya rĩake. Nake nĩagatharĩkĩra ita rĩa mũthamaki wa gathigathini, na atoonye itũũra rĩake rĩrĩa rĩirigĩre; nĩakarũa nao na amatoorie.
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.
Ningĩ nĩagataha ngai ciao cia mĩhianano, na mĩhianano yao ya kĩgera, na indo ciao cia goro cia betha na cia thahabu acikuue acitware bũrũri wa Misiri. Nĩagatigana na mũthamaki ũcio wa gathigathini ihinda rĩa mĩaka ĩigana ũna.
9 So the King of ye South shall come into his kingdome, and shall returne into his owne land.
Nake mũthamaki wa gathigathini nĩagatharĩkĩra mũthamaki ũcio wa bũrũri wa gũthini, no nĩagacooka ahũndũke nginya bũrũri-inĩ wake.
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.
No ariũ ake nĩmakehaarĩria kũrũa mbaara, macookanĩrĩrie mbũtũ nene ya ita hamwe ĩrĩa ĩkaahaata ta kĩguũ kĩa maaĩ kĩrĩa gĩtangĩhingĩrĩrio, na makinyie mbaara ĩyo nginya itũũra-inĩ rĩake rĩrĩa rĩirigĩre.
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.
“Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki wa gũthini nĩakoimagara arĩ na marũrũ akahũũrane na mũthamaki ũcio wa gathigathini, ũrĩa ũkaarahũra ita inene, no nĩakahootwo.
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.
Aarĩkia gũtaha mbũtũ ĩyo, mũthamaki ũcio wa gũthini nĩakaiyũrwo nĩ mwĩtĩĩo, na ooragithie andũ ngiri nyingĩ, no rĩrĩ, ũhootani wake ndũgatũũra.
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.
Nĩgũkorwo mũthamaki wa gathigathini nĩagacookanĩrĩria mbũtũ ĩngĩ ya ita nene gũkĩra ya mbere; na thuutha wa mĩaka mĩingĩ nĩakoimagara erekeire kuo arĩ na mbũtũ nene mũno na ĩrĩ na indo ciothe cia mbaara.
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.
“Mahinda-inĩ macio-rĩ, andũ aingĩ nĩmagookĩrĩra mũthamaki ũcio wa gũthini. Andũ a haaro gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ anyu nĩmakarema atĩ nĩgeetha kĩoneki gĩkĩ kĩhinge, no matikahootana.
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.
Nake mũthamaki wa gathigathini nĩagooka aitithie ihumbu cia tĩĩri, irigiicĩrie itũũra inene nĩguo arĩtunyane. Mbũtũ icio cia ita cia kuuma gũthini itikahota kũmwĩtiiria; o na thigari ciao iria njega mũno itigaakorwo na hinya wa gwĩtiiria.
16 But he that shall come, shall doe vnto him as he list, and none shall stand against him: and he shall stand in the pleasant land, which by his hand shalbe consumed.
Nake ũcio ũkaamatharĩkĩra nĩageeka o ta ũrĩa ekwĩendera; gũtirĩ ũkaahota kũmwĩtiiria. Nĩakehaanda kũu Bũrũri-inĩ ũcio Mũthaka na akorwo arĩ na hinya wa kũwananga.
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.
Nĩagatua itua kwerekeria hinya wa ũthamaki wake wothe bũrũri-inĩ ũcio, acooke athondeke kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa ũiguano na mũthamaki wa gũthini. Nake nĩakamũhe mũirĩtu wake amũhikie nĩguo ahote kũgũithia ũthamaki ũcio, no mĩbango ĩyo yake ndĩkahinga kana ĩmũteithie.
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩakerekeria meciiria make mabũrũri-inĩ marĩa marĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria na atahe maingĩ mamo, no rĩrĩ, mũnene ũmwe wa ita rĩake nĩakaniina mwĩgaatho ũcio wake, na aũgarũre ũmũcookerere.
19 For he shall turne his face toward the fortes of his owne land: but he shall be ouerthrowen and fall, and be no more founde.
Thuutha wa ũguo, nĩagacooka erekere matũũra marĩa mairigĩre ma bũrũri wake mwene, no nĩakahĩngwo na agwe ũndũ atagacooka kuonwo rĩngĩ.
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.
“Na rĩrĩ, ũrĩa ũgooka ithenya-inĩ rĩake nĩagatũma mwĩtia wa mbeeca cia igooti atuĩkanĩrie bũrũri ũcio wothe agĩĩtagia igooti, nĩguo atũũrie riiri wa ũthamaki wake. No thuutha wa mĩaka mĩnini nĩakaniinwo, no ndakooragwo na marakara kana ooragĩrwo mbaara-inĩ.
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.
“Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũrĩa ũgooka ithenya rĩake agaakorwo arĩ mũndũ wa kũnyararwo mũndũ ũtangĩheo gĩtĩĩo kĩa mũthamaki. Nake nĩakahithũkĩra ũthamaki ũcio rĩrĩa andũ akuo mageciiria atĩ nĩ kũrĩ thayũ, aũtunyane na waara.
22 And the armes shall be ouerthrowen with a flood before him, and shall be broken: and also the prince of the couenant.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo ningĩ, ita rĩrĩ na hinya mũno nĩrĩkahaatwo rĩeherio mbere yake; ita rĩu hamwe na mũnene wa kĩrĩkanĩro nĩmakaniinwo biũ.
23 And after the league made with him, he shall worke deceitfully: for he shall come vp, and ouercome with a small people.
Thuutha wa kũgĩa na kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa ũiguano nake, nĩagacooka aheenanie, na arĩ na andũ o anini nĩakarahũka agĩe na hinya.
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.
Rĩrĩa mabũrũri marĩa matongu mũno magakorwo marĩ na thayũ, nĩguo akaamatharĩkĩra na eke maũndũ marĩa maithe make o na kana maithe make ma tene matekire. Nĩakagaĩra arũmĩrĩri ake ũtonga wa ndaho, o na wa kũiya. Nĩagathugunda kũngʼaũrania matũũra marĩa mairigĩre, no nĩ kwa ihinda.
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.
“Nĩagacookanĩrĩria ita inene agĩe na hinya na ũcamba okĩrĩre mũthamaki wa gũthini. Mũthamaki wa gũthini nĩakarũa nake arĩ na ita inene na rĩa hinya, no ndagetiiria nĩ ũndũ wa mĩbango ĩrĩa agaakorwo aciirĩirwo.
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.
Andũ arĩa marĩĩanagĩra na mũthamaki nĩo makaamũkunyanĩra; ita rĩake nĩrĩgathererio ta andũ megũtwarwo nĩ kĩguũ, na aingĩ ao mooragĩrwo mbaara-inĩ.
27 And both these Kings hearts shall be to do mischiefe, and they shall talke of deceite at one table: but it shall not auaile: for yet the ende shall be at the time appointed.
Athamaki acio eerĩ, marĩ na ngoro iciirĩire gwĩka ũũru-rĩ, nĩmagaikara metha-inĩ ĩmwe maaranĩrie ndeto cia maheeni, no ndeto icio ciao itigakinyanĩra, amu ithirĩro rĩa maũndũ macio rĩgaakinya o hĩndĩ ĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo.
28 Then shall he returne into his land with great substance: for his heart shall be against the holy couenant: so shall he doe and returne to his owne land.
Mũthamaki wa gathigathini nĩagacooka bũrũri wake arĩ na ũtonga mũingĩ, no ngoro yake ĩgaakorwo ĩreganĩte na kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa gĩtheru. Nĩagookĩrĩra kĩrĩkanĩro kĩu, na thuutha ũcio acooke ainũke bũrũri wake.
29 At the time appointed he shall returne, and come toward the South: but the last shall not be as the first.
“Ihinda rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo rĩakinya, nĩagatharĩkĩra bũrũri wa gũthini riita rĩngĩ, no rĩrĩ, itharĩkĩra rĩa ihinda rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩgakorwo rĩrĩ na ũtiganu na rĩa ihinda rĩa mbere.
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.
Andũ a kuuma Kitimu nĩmagooka na marikabu ciao mamũũkĩrĩre, nake nĩagaakua ngoro. Nake nĩakahũndũka arakarĩte mũno na okĩrĩre kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa gĩtheru. Nĩagacooka eke maũndũ ma ũtugi kũrĩ andũ arĩa othe magaatirika kĩrĩkanĩro kĩu gĩtheru.
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.
“Ita rĩake rĩrĩ na indo cia mbaara nĩrĩkarahũka nĩguo rĩthaahie handũ harĩa hairigĩre na hinya ha hekarũ, rĩcooke rĩeherie magongona marĩa marutagwo o mũthenya nĩguo matikarutagĩrwo ho. Thuutha ũcio macooke marũgamie kĩndũ kĩrĩ thaahu ho, kĩrĩa kĩngĩtũma bũrũri ũkire ihooru.
32 And such as wickedly breake ye couenant, shall he cause to sinne by flatterie: but the people that do know their God, shall preuaile and prosper.

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.
“Andũ arĩa oogĩ nĩmagathomithia andũ aingĩ, o na gũtuĩka kwa ihinda nĩmakooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, kana macinwo na mwaki, kana manyiitwo mĩgwate na matunywo indo ciao cia bata.

35 And some of the of vnderstanding shall fall to trie them, and to purge, and to make them white, till the time be out: for there is a time appointed.
Andũ amwe arĩa oogĩ nĩmakaagũa, nĩguo makumuthwo, na mathambio mage imeni nginya mahinda ma ithirĩro, amu ihinda rĩu rĩtuĩtwo no rĩgaakinya.
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.
“Mũthamaki ũcio ageekaga o ũrĩa ekwenda. Nĩagetũũgĩria na enenehie gũkĩra ngai ciothe na nĩakaaragia ndeto itarĩ ciaiguuo cia gũũkĩrĩra Ngai wa ngai ciothe. Nake nĩakagaacĩra nginya rĩrĩa ihinda rĩa mangʼũrĩ rĩgaathira, nĩgũkorwo ũndũ ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo no nginya ũkaahinga.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desires of women, nor care for any God: for he shall magnifie himselfe aboue all.

38 But in his place shall he honour the god Mauzzim, and the god whom his fathers knewe not, shall he honour with golde and with siluer, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.

39 Thus shall he do in the holdes of Mauzzim with a strange god whom he shall acknowledge: he shall increase his glory, and shall cause them to rule ouer many and shall deuide ye land for gaine.

40 And at ye end of time shall the King of the South push at him, and the king of the North shall come against him like a whirlewind with charets, and with horsemen, and with many ships, and he shall enter into ye countreis, and shall ouerflow and passe through.
“Ihinda rĩa ithirĩro rĩakinya-rĩ, mũthamaki ũcio wa gũthini nĩakamũtharĩkĩra mbaara-inĩ, no nake mũthamaki ũcio wa gathigathini amũũkĩrĩre na ngaari cia ita, na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi, o na marikabu nyingĩ. Nĩagatharĩkĩra mabũrũri maingĩ, na atuĩkanĩrie kuo ta kĩguũ kĩa maaĩ.
