Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a word was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the word was true, even a great warfare; and he gave heed to the word, and had understanding of the vision.
Siris t'ap mache sou twazan depi l' te wa nan peyi Pès lè Bondye fè Danyèl, ki te rele Beltechaza tou, konnen yon mesaj. Se te bon koze sou gwo batay ki gen pou fèt la. Se nan yon vizyon yo te fè l' konprann mesaj la.
2 In those days I Daniel was mourning three whole weeks.
Lè sa a, mwen menm Danyèl, mwen pase twa senmenn nan gwo lapenn.
3 I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
Mwen pa t' manje ankenn bon ti manje, ni ankenn vyann. Mwen pa t' mete yon gout diven nan bouch moun. Mwen pa t' pase lwil santi bon sou mwen pandan twa senmenn sa yo.
4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Tigris,
Sou vennkatriyèm jou premye mwa a nan lanne a, mwen te kanpe bò gwo larivyè Lefrat la.
5 I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz;
Mwen leve je m', mwen wè yon moun ki te gen rad swa sou li ak yon sentiwon fèt ak bon lò mare nan ren l'.
6 his body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
Kò l' te klere tankou yon wòch poli. Figi l' te tankou zèklè. Je l' yo te klere tankou de moso chabon dife. Bra l' ak janm li yo te tankou kwiv yo te poli. Lè l' pale menm, se tankou si se te yon foul moun ki t'ap pale ansanm.
7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision; for the men that were with me saw not the vision; howbeit a great trembling fell upon them, and they fled to hide themselves.
Se mwen menm sèlman ki te wè vizyon an. Lòt moun ki te avè m' yo pa t' wè anyen. Men yo te pè, yo te kouri al kache.
8 So that I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
Mwen menm, mwen te rete la pou kont mwen. Mwen t'ap gade gwo vizyon an. Mwen santi m' pa t' gen fòs menm, figi m' te dekonpoze. Pa gen moun ki ta ka rekonèt mwen.
9 Yet heard I the voice of his words; and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I fallen into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
Lè m' tande vwa li menm, mwen tonbe fas atè, mwen pèdi konesans.
10 And, behold, a hand touched me, which set me tottering upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
Apre sa, mwen santi yon men manyen m', li fè m' leve sou pla men m' ak sou jenou m'. M' t'ap tranble toujou.
11 And he said unto me: 'O Daniel, thou man greatly beloved, give heed unto the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright; for now am I sent unto thee'; and when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
Zanj lan di m' konsa: -Danyèl, ou se yon moun Bondye renmen anpil. Kanpe non! Louvri zòrèy ou pou ou tande sa mwen pral di ou. Se Bondye ki voye m' kote ou. Lè li fin di m' sa, mwen leve kanpe, men m' t'ap tranble toujou.
12 Then said he unto me: 'Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard; and I am come because of thy words.
Li di m' konsa: -Ou pa bezwen pè, Danyèl. Bondye te tande lapriyè ou la depi premye jou ou te pran desizyon soumèt ou devan Bondye ou pou ou te ka rive gen bon konprann. Se poutèt lapriyè ou la mwen vin ba ou repons Bondye a.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days; but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I was left over there beside the kings of Persia.
Zanj chèf peyi Pès la te kenbe tèt avè m' pandan venteyen jou. Apre sa, Michèl, yonn nan chèf zanj Bondye yo, vin pote m' sekou paske mwen te pou kont mwen nan peyi Pès la.
14 Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the end of days; for there is yet a vision for the days.'
Mwen vin fè ou konprann sa ki pral rive pèp ou a nan jou k'ap vini yo. Vizyon an fè ou wè sa ki pral rive jou sa yo.
15 And when he had spoken unto me according to these words, I set my face toward the ground, and was dumb.
Lè li di m' sa, m' bese je m' gade atè san m' pa di anyen.
16 And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips; then I opened my mouth, and spoke and said unto him that stood before me: 'O my lord, by reason of the vision my pains are come upon me, and I retain no strength.
Lè sa a, zanj ki te gen fòm yon moun lan lonje men l', li manyen po bouch mwen. Mwen louvri bouch mwen pale, mwen di zanj ki te kanpe devan m' lan: -Mèt, vizyon an fè m' pè, m' pèdi tout fòs mwen, kè m' sere!
17 For how can this servant of my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither was there breath left in me.'
Se moun k'ap sèvi ou mwen ye, mèt. Ki jan mwen ka pale ak ou? M' pa gen fòs ankò, m' pèdi souf mwen.
18 Then there touched me again one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me.
Zanj ki te gen fòm moun lan manyen m' ankò yo dezyèm fwa. Mwen santi m' refè.
19 And he said: 'O man greatly beloved, fear not! peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong.' And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said: 'Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.'
Epi li di m': -Ou pa bezwen pè. Ou se yon moun Bondye renmen anpil. Pa kite anyen fatige lespri ou, ni fè ou pèdi kouraj ou! Lè li di m' sa, mwen santi mwen vin gen plis fòs. Mwen di li: -Mèt, ou fè m' vin gen fòs. Di m' sa ou gen pou di m' lan non!
20 Then said he: Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia; and when I go forth, lo, the prince of Greece shall come.
Lè sa a, li di m': -Ou konnen poukisa mwen vin bò kote ou la? Se pou m' te ka fè ou konnen sa ki te ekri nan liv verite a. Koulye a, mwen gen pou m' al goumen ak zanj chèf peyi Pès la. Apre sa, zanj chèf peyi Lagrès la va parèt.
21 Howbeit I will declare unto thee that which is inscribed in the writing of truth; and there is none that holdeth with me against these, except Michael your prince.
Pa gen lòt moun pou vin ede m' pase Michèl, zanj chèf pèp Izrayèl la.
