< Daniel 7 >

1 In the first yeere of Belshazzar King of Babel, Daniel sawe a dreame, and there were visions in his head, vpon his bed: then he wrote the dreame, and declared the summe of the matter.
Na mobu ya liboso ya bokonzi ya Balitazari, mokonzi ya Babiloni, Daniele alotaki ndoto moko: bimoniseli eyaki na makanisi na ye tango azalaki ya kolala na mbeto na ye. Bongo, akomaki ndoto yango mpe alobaki mama na likambo na yango.
2 Daniel spake and saide, I sawe in my vision by night, and behold, the foure windes of the heauen stroue vpon the great sea:
Daniele alobaki: Na emoniseli oyo nazwaki na butu, namonaki mipepe minei kowuta na likolo mpe eningisaki ebale monene.
3 And foure great beastes came vp from the sea one diuers from another.
Banyama minei ya minene, ekesana yango nyonso, ebimaki wuta na ebale monene.
4 The first was as a lyon, and had eagles wings: I beheld, til the wings thereof were pluckt of, and it was lifted vp from the earth, and set vpon his feete as a man, and a mans heart was giuen him.
Nyama ya liboso ezalaki lokola nkosi mpe ezalaki na mapapu lokola mpongo. Wana nazalaki kotala, balongolaki yango mapapu, batombolaki yango longwa na mabele mpo ete etelema na makolo mibale lokola moto; mpe bapesaki yango motema ya moto.
5 And beholde, another beast which was the second, was like a beare and stood vpon the one side: and hee had three ribbes in his mouth betweene his teeth, and they saide thus vnto him, Arise and deuoure much flesh.
Bongo, namonaki nyama ya mibale: ezalaki lokola ngombolo; etelemaki na moko ya mipanzi na yango mpe ezalaki na mikuwa ya mipanzi misato na kati-kati ya minu ya monoko na yango. Balobaki na yango: « Telema, lia mpe otonda misuni! »
6 After this I behelde, and loe, there was an other like a leopard, which had vpon his backe foure wings of a foule: the beast had also foure heads, and dominion was giuen him.
Sima na yango, nakobaki kotala mpe namonaki nyama mosusu: ezalaki lokola nkoyi, mpe mokongo na yango ezalaki na mapapu minei lokola mapapu ya ndeke. Nyama yango ezalaki na mito minei, bongo bapesaki yango bokonzi ya kokamba.
7 After this I saw in the visions by night, and beholde, the fourth beast was fearefull and terrible and very strong. It had great yron teeth: it deuoured and brake in pieces and stamped the residue vnder his feete: and it was vnlike to the beasts that were before it: for it had ten hornes.
Sima na yango, kati na emoniseli na ngai ya butu, namonaki nyama ya minei: ezalaki somo, ezalaki kobangisa mpe ezalaki na nguya makasi penza. Ezalaki na minu minene ya bibende; ezalaki kolia, kopanzapanza mpe konyata misuni oyo ezalaki kotikala; ekesenaki makasi na banyama nyonso ya liboso mpe ezalaki na maseke zomi.
8 As I considered the hornes, beholde, there came vp among them another litle horne, before whome there were three of the first hornes pluckt away: and behold, in this horne were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking presumptuous things.
Wana nazali kotala malamu maseke, namonaki liseke mosusu ya moke kobima kati na maseke wana; bongo maseke misato kati na maseke ya liboso elongwaki liboso ya liseke ya moke oyo ezalaki na miso lokola ya moto mpe monoko oyo ezalaki koloba na lolendo.
9 I behelde, till the thrones were set vp, and the Ancient of dayes did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the heare of his head like the pure wooll: his throne was like the fierie flame, and his wheeles as burning fire.
Wana nazalaki kotala, namonaki bazali kotanda bakiti ya bokonzi, mpe Mpaka oyo azala liboso ya tango avandaki na moko kati na bakiti yango. Bilamba na Ye ezalaki pembe lokola mvula ya pembe, suki ya moto na Ye ezalaki pembe lokola bapwale ya meme, oyo basukola malamu. Kiti ya Bokonzi na Ye ezalaki lokola moto, mpe bapine na yango ezalaki lokola moto oyo ezali kongala.
10 A fierie streame yssued, and came foorth from before him: thousand thousandes ministred vnto him, and tenne thousand thousands stoode before him: the iudgement was set, and the bookes opened.
Ebale ya moto ezalaki kobima mpe kotambola liboso na Ye. Minkoko ya bato bazalaki kosalela Ye, minkoko ya minkoko ya bato batelemaki liboso na Ye. Basambisi bavandaki, mpe babuku efungwamaki.
11 Then I behelde, because of the voyce of the presumptuous wordes, which the horne spake: I behelde, euen till the beast was slaine, and his body destroyed, and giuen to the burning fire.
Nakobaki kotala mpo na maloba ya lofundu oyo liseke yango ezalaki koloba; mpe wana nazalaki kaka kotala, babomaki nyama yango, nzoto na yango ebebaki mpe babwakaki yango na moto.
12 As concerning the other beastes, they had taken away their dominion: yet their liues were prolonged for a certaine time and season.
Balongolaki bokonzi ya banyama mosusu, kasi babakiselaki yango mikolo ya bomoi kino na tango oyo ekatama.
13 As I behelde in visions by night, behold, one like the sonne of man came in the cloudes of heauen, and approched vnto the Ancient of dayes, and they brought him before him.
Kati na bimoniseli na ngai ya butu,
14 And he gaue him dominion, and honour, and a kingdome, that all people, nations and languages should serue him: his dominion is an euerlasting dominion, which shall neuer bee taken away: and his kingdome shall neuer be destroyed.
Bapesaki Ye bokonzi, lokumu mpe nguya;
15 I Daniel was troubled in my spirit, in the middes of my body, and the visions of mine head made me afraide.
Ngai, Daniele, namitungisaki makasi; mpe bimoniseli oyo eyaki na makanisi na ngai ebangisaki ngai makasi.
16 Therefore I came vnto one of them that stoode by, and asked him the trueth of all this: so he tolde me, and shewed me the interpretation of these things.
Napusanaki pene ya moko kati na ba-oyo batelemaki wana, natunaki ye ndimbola ya solo ya makambo oyo namonaki. Ayanolaki ngai mpe apesaki ngai ndimbola ya makambo wana nyonso:
17 These great beastes which are foure, are foure Kings, which shall arise out of the earth,
— Banyama nyonso minei wana ya minene ezali kolakisa bakonzi minei oyo bakobima na mabele;
18 And they shall take the kingdome of the Saintes of the most High, and possesse the kingdome for euer, euen for euer and euer.
kasi basantu ya Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo bakozwa bokonzi mpe bakobatela yango mpo na libela, seko na seko.
19 After this, I woulde knowe the trueth of the fourth beast, which was so vnlike to all the others, very fearefull, whose teeth were of yron, and his nailes of brasse: which deuoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue vnder his feete.
Bongo, nalingaki koyeba na bosolo ndimbola ya nyama ya minei oyo ekesenaki makasi na banyama mosusu wana, ezalaki kobangisa makasi, ezalaki na minu ya bibende mpe mbanga ya bronze, ezalaki kolia, kopanzapanza mpe konyata misuni oyo ezalaki etikala.
20 Also to know of the tenne hornes that were in his head, and of the other which came vp, before whome three fell, and of the horne that had eyes, and of the mouth that spake presumptuous thinges, whose looke was more stoute then his fellowes.
Nalingaki lisusu koyeba ndimbola ya maseke zomi oyo ezalaki na moto na yango mpe ya liseke mosusu oyo ebimaki, oyo maseke misato kati na maseke wana zomi ekweyaki liboso na yango, oyo ezalaki na miso mpe na monoko oyo ezalaki koloba na lolendo, mpe oyo ezalaki makasi koleka maseke mosusu.
21 I beheld, and the same horne made battel against the Saintes, yea, and preuailed against them,
Wana nazalaki kotala liseke yango, namonaki yango kobundisa mpe kolonga basantu
22 Vntill the Ancient of dayes came, and iudgement was giuen to the Saintes of the most High: and the time approched, that the Saintes possessed the kingdome.
kino tango Mpaka oyo azala liboso ya tango ayaki kobundela basantu ya Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo, mpe kino tango ya kozwa bokonzi ekokoka mpo na bango.
23 Then he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdome in the earth, which shall be vnlike to all the kingdomes, and shall deuoure the whole earth, and shall treade it downe and breake it in pieces.
Moto oyo natunaki ndimbola ya ndoto alobaki na ngai: — Nyama oyo ya minei ezali mokonzi ya minei oyo akobima na mabele. Akokesana makasi na babokonzi wana nyonso: akoboma mokili mobimba, akonyata mpe akopanza-panza yango.
24 And the ten hornes out of this kingdome are tenne Kings that shall rise: and an other shall rise after them, and he shall be vnlike to the first, and he shall subdue three Kings,
Maseke zomi elingi koloba ete bakonzi zomi bakobima na bokonzi oyo. Sima na bango, mokonzi mosusu akobima, akokesana na bakonzi ya liboso mpe akokweyisa bakonzi misato;
25 And shall speake wordes against the most High, and shall consume the Saintes of the most High, and thinke that he may change times and lawes, and they shalbe giuen into his hand, vntill a time, and times and the deuiding of time.
akotiola na maloba na ye Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo, akonyokola basantu na Ye, akomeka ata kobongola manaka ya bafeti oyo ekatama mpe mibeko. Basantu bakozala na se ya bokonzi na ye mibu misato na ndambo.
26 But the iudgement shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and destroy it vnto the ende.
Kasi bato ya mibeko bakovanda lisanga mpe bakobotola ye bokonzi, mpe bokonzi yango ekokufa mpe ekolimwa libela.
27 And the kingdome, and dominion, and the greatnesse of the kingdome vnder the whole heauen shalbe giue to the holy people of the most High, whose kingdome is an euerlasting kingdome and all powers shall serue and obey him.
Kasi bokonzi, nguya mpe lokumu ya bikolo oyo ezali na se ya moyi ekopesama na ekolo ya basantu ya Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo. Bokonzi ya ekolo yango ekowumela seko na seko, mpe bakonzi ya bikolo nyonso ya mokili bakosalela mpe bakotosa ekolo yango.
28 Euen this is the ende of the matter, I Daniel had many cogitations which troubled mee, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in mine heart.
Lisolo ya ndoto na ngai esuki awa. Ngai, Daniele, namitungisaki mingi kati na motema na ngai, elongi na ngai ebebaki na somo mpe nabombaki makambo oyo kati na motema na ngai.
