Daniel 11

1 And as for me, in the first year of Darius the Mede, I stood up to be a supporter and a stronghold unto him.

Pea ko au foki ʻi he ʻuluaki taʻu ʻo Talaiasi ko e Mitia, ʻio, ko au, naʻaku tuʻu hake ke fakatuʻumaʻu mo tokoni kiate ia.

2 And now will I declare unto thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all; and when he is waxed strong through his riches, he shall stir up all against the realm of Greece.

Pea ko eni, te u fakahā kiate koe ʻae moʻoni. “Vakai, ʻe toetuʻu hake ʻi Peasia, ʻae tuʻi ʻe toko tolu; pea ko hono fā ʻe koloaʻia lahi hake ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē: pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene mālohi koeʻuhi ko ʻene koloa, te ne ueʻi kotoa pē ke tali tuʻu ki he puleʻanga ʻo Kalisi.

3 And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.

“Pea ʻe tuʻu hake ha tuʻi mālohi, ʻaia ʻe pule ʻaki ʻae pule lahi, pea ne fai ʻo fakatatau mo hono loto.

4 And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; but not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion wherewith he ruled; for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those.

Pea ʻoka ne tuʻu hake ia ʻe mafesi hono puleʻanga, pea ʻe movetevete ia ki he feituʻu matangi ʻe fā ʻoe langi, ka e ʻikai ki hono hako, pea ʻe ʻikai tatau ia mo hono puleʻanga, ʻaia naʻa ne puleʻi: he koeʻuhi ʻe taʻaki hono puleʻanga, koeʻuhi ko e niʻihi kehe, ka e ʻikai koeʻuhi ko kinautolu pe.

5 And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion.

“Pea ʻe mālohi ʻae tuʻi mei he potu tonga, mo e tokotaha ʻi hono houʻeiki; pea ʻe mālohi hake ia ʻiate ia, pea ʻe maʻu ʻe ia ʻae pule; pea ko ʻene pule ʻe hoko ko e pule lahi.

6 And at the end of years they shall join themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement; but she shall not retain the strength of her arm; neither shall he stand, nor his arm; but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begot her, and he that obtained her in those times.

Pea ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe ngaahi taʻu te nau fakataha ʻakinautolu: he ko e ʻofefine ʻoe tuʻi ʻoe potu tonga, ʻe haʻu ia ki he tuʻi ʻoe potu tokelau, ke fai ha fuakava mo ia: ka e ʻikai maʻu kiate ia ʻae mālohi ʻoe nima; pea ʻe ʻikai tuʻumaʻu ia, ʻaia pe ko hono nima: ka e tukuange ʻae fefine, mo kinautolu naʻa nau omi mo ia, mo ia naʻa ne tupu ai, pea mo ia naʻe tokoni ki ai ʻi he ngaahi kuonga ko ia.

7 But one of the shoots of her roots shall stand up in his place, and shall come unto the army, and shall enter into the stronghold of the king of the north, and shall deal with them, and shall prevail;

Ka e tupu hake mei hono mangaʻi aka ʻe taha ha tokotaha ʻi hono tofiʻa, ʻaia ʻe hoko mai mo e kau tau, pea ʻe hū ia ki he kolo ʻoe tuʻi ʻoe potu tokelau, pea te nau fai mo ia, pea te ne ikuna:

8 and also their gods, with their molten images, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold, shall he bring into captivity into Egypt; and he shall desist some years from the king of the north.

Pea ʻe ʻave pōpula foki ki ʻIsipite, ʻa honau ngaahi ʻotua, pea mo honau houʻeiki, pea mo ʻenau ngaahi ipu mahuʻinga, ko e siliva mo e koula; pea ʻe lahi hono taʻu ʻoʻona, ʻi he tuʻi ʻoe potu tokelau.

9 And he shall come into the kingdom of the king of the south, but he shall return into his own land.

Ko ia ʻe haʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻoe potu tonga ki hono puleʻanga, pea toki foki atu ki hono fonua ʻoʻona.

10 And his sons shall stir themselves up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces, and he shall come on, and overflow, as he passes through; and he shall return and stir himself up, even to his stronghold.

Ka e ueʻi ai hono ngaahi foha, pea te nau tānaki ʻae fuʻu kau tau tokolahi; pea ko honau tokotaha ʻe haʻu moʻoni ia ʻo kāpui, mo ʻalu atu: pea ʻe toki foki mai ia, pea ʻe toe hiki ʻe ia ʻae tau, ʻo aʻu ki heʻene kolo.

11 And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north; and he shall set forth a great multitude, but the multitude shall be given into his hand.

Pea ʻe ngaue ʻae tuʻi ʻoe potu tonga ʻi he tuputāmaki kiate ia, pea ʻe haʻu ia ʻo tau mo ia, ʻio, mo e tuʻi ʻoe potu tokelau; pea ʻe fokotuʻu ʻe ia ʻae fuʻu tokolahi kiate ia, ka e tuku ʻae fuʻu tokolahi ki hono nima.

12 and the multitude shall be carried away, and his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down tens of thousands; but he shall not prevail.

Pea ʻoka ne ka fetuku atu ʻae fuʻu tokolahi, ʻe fakahikihiki hono loto; pea te ne lī ki lalo ʻae ngaahi toko mano lahi: ka e ʻikai te ne mālohi ai.

13 And the king of the north shall again set forth a multitude, greater than the former; and he shall come on at the end of the times, even of years, with a great army and with much substance.

He koeʻuhi ʻe toe haʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻoe potu tokelau, pea te ne ʻomi mo e fuʻu tokolahi, ʻo lahi hake ʻi he ʻuluaki, ʻoku pau pe ke toe hoko mai ia mo e fuʻu kau tau, pea mo e koloa lahi, ʻoka hili ʻae ngaahi taʻu.

14 And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south; also the children of the violent among thy people shall lift themselves up to establish the vision; but they shall stumble.

Pea ʻi he ngaahi kuonga ko ia ʻe tuʻu hake ʻae tokolahi ki he tuʻi ʻoe potu tonga; pea ko e kau kaihaʻa ʻi hoʻo kakai foki, te nau hakeakiʻi ʻakinautolu ke fakatuʻumaʻu ʻae meʻa hā mai; ka te nau hinga.

15 And the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mound, and take a well-fortified city; and the arms of the south shall not withstand; and as for his chosen people, there shall be no strength in them to withstand.

Ko ia ʻe haʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻoe potu tokelau, pea keli kolo, pea ʻe ikuʻi ʻae ngaahi kolo kuo ʻāʻi mālohi: pea ko e mahafu ʻoe potu tonga ʻe ʻikai faʻa taʻofi ki ai, pe ko ʻene kakai fili, pea ʻe ʻikai siʻi ha mālohi ke taʻofi.

16 But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him; and he shall stand in the beauteous land, and in his hand shall be extermination.

Ka ko ia ʻoku haʻu kiate ia ʻe fai ʻe ia ʻa ʻene faʻiteliha, pea ʻe ʻikai faʻa tuʻu ha tokotaha ʻi hono ʻao: pea ʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he fonua ʻoe monūʻia, pea ʻe fakaʻauha foki ia ʻi hono nima.

17 And he shall set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, but shall make an agreement with him; and he shall give him the daughter of women, to destroy it; but it shall not stand, neither be for him.

Pea ʻe fakahangatonu hono mata foki ke hū ki ai mo e mālohi kotoa ʻo hono puleʻanga, mo e matamata fai totonu; ʻe pehē pe ʻene fai: pea neongo ʻene foaki kiate ia ʻae fungani ʻi he kau fefine, ke kākaaʻi: ka ʻe ʻikai tuʻumaʻu ia kiate ia, pe kau mo ia.

18 After this shall he set his face unto the isles, and shall take many; but a captain shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; yea, he shall cause his own reproach to return upon him.

Pea hili ia ʻe fakahangatonu, hono mata ki he ngaahi ʻotu motu, pea te ne maʻu ia ʻo lahi: ka e ʻi ai ʻae ʻeikitau ʻe taha te ne fakangata ʻa ʻene polepole mai, pea ʻe liliu ʻe ia ʻae manuki ke toe hoko kiate ia pe.

19 Then he shall turn his face toward the strongholds of his own land; but he shall stumble and fall, and shall not be found.

Pea hili ia te ne toki fakahangatonu hono mata ke ʻalu ki he kolo ʻo hono fonua: ka te ne tūkia mo humu, pea ʻe ʻikai kei ʻiloʻi ia.

20 Then shall stand up in his place one that shall cause an exactor to pass through the glory of the kingdom; but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

Pea ʻe toki tuʻu hake ʻi hono tuʻunga ʻoʻona ha taha fakatupu tukuhau ʻi he nāunau ʻoe puleʻanga: ka e ʻaho siʻi pe pea ʻe ʻauha ia, ka e ʻikai ʻi he ʻita, pe ʻi he tau.

21 And in his place shall stand up a contemptible person, upon whom had not been conferred the majesty of the kingdom; but he shall come in time of security, and shall obtain the kingdom by blandishments.

Pea ʻe tuʻu hake ʻi hono potu ʻoʻona ha tokotaha fakalielia, ʻe ʻikai te nau tuku ki ai ʻae nāunau ʻoe puleʻanga: ka te ne hoko ki ai ʻi he melino, pea te ne maʻu ʻae puleʻanga ʻi he lapu.

22 And the arms of the flood shall be swept away from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant.

Pea ʻe melemo ʻakinautolu ʻi hono ʻao ʻi he malofa mai ʻae mahafutau ʻo hangē ko e vai, pea ʻe maumauʻi ia, ʻio, ʻe ia mo e ʻEiki naʻe fai ʻae fuakava;

23 And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully; and he shall come up and become strong, with a little nation.

Pea ka hili ʻa ʻena fai fuakava mo ia, te ne fai kākā: koeʻuhi ʻe haʻu ia, pea te ne hoko ʻo mālohi ka ko e kakai tokosiʻi.

24 In time of security shall he come even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers: he shall scatter among them prey, and spoil, and substance; yea, he shall devise his devices against fortresses, but only until the time.

He te ne hoko ʻi he melino pe ʻo maʻu ʻae ngaahi potu koloaʻia ʻoe fonua; pea ʻe fai ʻe ia ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ke fai ʻe heʻene ngaahi tamai, pe ko ʻene ngaahi kui; he te ne tufa kiate kinautolu ʻae meʻa kuo maʻu ʻi he mālohi, mo e meʻa maʻu ʻi he tau, mo e koloa: pea ʻe fai ʻe ia ʻene fakakaukau ki he ngaahi potu mālohi, ʻio, ʻi ha kuonga.

25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall stir himself up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand, for they shall devise devices against him.

Pea te ne langaʻi ʻene mālohi, pea ʻe toʻa hono loto ki he tuʻi ʻoe potu tonga mo e fuʻu kau tau; pea ʻe ngaue ʻae tuʻi ʻoe potu tonga ke tau mo e kau tau tokolahi fakamanavahē; ka e ʻikai te ne tuʻumaʻu: koeʻuhi te nau fakakaukauʻi ʻae ngaahi tauhele kiate ia.

26 Yea, they that eat of his food shall destroy him, and his army shall be swept away; and many shall fall down slain.

‌ʻIo, ʻakinautolu ʻoku kai ʻi heʻene meʻakai, te nau tāmateʻi ia, pea ko ʻene kautau ʻe movete: pea ʻe tō ʻo mate ʻae tokolahi.

27 And as for both these kings, their hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper, for the end remaineth yet for the time appointed.

Pea ʻe loto ʻae ongo tuʻi ni fakatouʻosi pe ke fai kovi, pea te na lea loi ʻi he keinangaʻanga pe taha ka e ʻikai lava: he ko e ngataʻanga ʻe hoko pe ia ʻi he kuonga kuo kotofa.

28 And he shall return to his own land with great substance; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and he shall do his pleasure, and return to his own land.

“Pea ʻe toki foki atu ia ki hono fonua mo e koloa lahi; pea ʻe kovi hono loto ki he fuakava māʻoniʻoni; pea te ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi, pea foki atu ki hono fonua.

29 At the time appointed he shall return, and come into the south; but it shall not be in the latter time as it was in the former.

Pea ʻi he kuonga kuo tuʻutuʻuni te ne foki mai, pea haʻu ki he potu tonga; ka e ʻikai hangē ko e fuofua haʻu, pe ko ia kimui.

30 For ships of Kittim shall come against him, and he shall be cowed, and he shall return, and have indignation against the holy covenant, and shall do his pleasure; and he shall return, and have regard unto them that forsake the holy covenant.

Koeʻuhi ʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻae ngaahi vaka mei Kitimi: ko ia te ne mamahi ai, pea foki, pea ʻe lahi ʻene ʻita ki he fuakava māʻoniʻoni: ʻe pehē ʻa ʻene fai; ʻio, ʻe liu mai ia, pea toki alea mo kinautolu ʻoku siʻaki ʻae fuakava māʻoniʻoni

31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall profane the sanctuary, even the stronghold, and shall take away the continual burnt-offering, and they shall set up the detestable thing that causeth appalment.

Pea ʻe tuʻu ʻae mahafutau ʻo kau mo ia, pea te nau fakaʻuliʻi ʻae potu tapu ʻoe mālohi pea te nau ʻave ʻae feilaulau ʻaho, pea te nau fokotuʻu ʻae meʻa fakalielia ʻoku fakaʻulia.

32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall be corrupt by blandishments; but the people that know their God shall show strength, and prevail.

Pea te ne fakalotokoviʻi ʻi he lapu ʻakinautolu ʻoku fai kovi ki he fuakava, ka e mālohi ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻilo honau ʻOtua, pea te nau fai meʻa lahi.

33 And they that are wise among the people shall cause the many to understand; yet they shall stumble by the sword and by flame, by captivity and by spoil, many days.

Pea ko kinautolu ʻoku poto ʻi he kakai, te nau akonekina ʻae tokolahi: ka te nau tō ʻi he heletā, mo e afi, mo e pōpula, mo e fakamālohi, ʻo ʻaho lahi.

34 Now when they shall stumble, they shall be helped with a little help; but many shall join themselves unto them with blandishments.

Pea ʻoka nau ka tō, ʻe tokoni ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae tokoni siʻi: ka e pikitai ʻae tokolahi kiate kinautolu ʻi he lapu.

35 And some of them that are wise shall stumble, to refine among them, and to purify, and to make white, even to the time of the end; for it is yet for the time appointed.

Pea ʻe tō ha niʻihi ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku poto, koeʻuhi ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu, pea ke fakamaʻa, mo fakahinehina, ʻo aʻu ki he kuonga ʻoe ngataʻanga: koeʻuhi ʻoku kei ai ʻae kuonga kuo tuʻutuʻuni.

36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak strange things against the God of gods; and he shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished; for that which is determined shall be done.

Pea ʻe fai ʻe he tuʻi ʻo fakatatau mo hono loto; pea te ne hakeakiʻi ʻe ia ia, mo fakahikihikiʻi ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua kotoa pē, pea te ne lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakamanavahē ki he ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi ʻotua, pea ʻe monūʻia ia, kaeʻoua ke kakato ʻae houhau: he ko ia kuo tuʻutuʻuni ʻe fai pe ia.

37 Neither shall he regard the gods of his fathers; and neither the desire of women, nor any god, shall he regard; for he shall magnify himself above all.

Pea ʻe ʻikai te ne tokanga ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pe ko e holi ki he fefine, pe tokanga ki ha ʻotua ʻe taha: he koeʻuhi te ne hakeakiʻi ia ke māʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē.

38 But in his place shall he honour the god of strongholds; and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and costly things.

Ka e fakaʻapaʻapa ia ki he ʻotua ʻoe mālohi, pea ko e ʻotua naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe heʻene ngaahi tamai, te ne fakaʻapaʻapa ki ai ʻaki ʻae koula mo e siliva, pea mo e ngaahi maka koloa, mo e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku fai ki ai ʻae manako.

39 And he shall deal with the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god; whom he shall acknowledge, shall increase glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for a price.

‌ʻE pehē pe ʻene fai ʻi he ngaahi potu mālohi, mo e ʻotua foʻou, ʻaia te ne fakahā mo fakanāunauʻia: pea te ne fai ke nau pule ki he tokolahi; pea te nau vahevahe ʻae fonua koeʻuhi ke maʻu koloa.

40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him; and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow, as he passes through.

“Pea ʻi he kuonga ʻamui ʻe fakatuʻotuʻa ʻae tuʻi ʻoe potu tonga kiate ia: pea ʻe ʻoho kiate ia ʻae tuʻi ʻoe potu tokelau ʻo hangē ko e ʻahiohio, mo e ngaahi saliote, mo e kau tau heka hoosi, pea mo e ngaahi vaka lahi; pea te ne hū ki he ngaahi fonua, pea te ne mafola atu ai

41 He shall enter also into the beauteous land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall be delivered out of his hand, Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.

Te ne hū foki ki he fonua ʻoe monūʻia, pea ʻe lahi ʻae fonua kehekehe ʻe fulihi: ka e hao pe mei hono nima ʻae ngaahi fonua ni, ʻio, ʻa ʻItomi mo Moape, mo e tokolahi ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.

42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries; and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

Te ne mafao atu hono nima foki ki he ngaahi fonua; pea ʻe ʻikai hao ʻae fonua ʻo ʻIsipite.

43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.

Pea te ne pule ki he koloa, ʻoe koula, mo e siliva, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa mahuʻinga kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite: pea ko e kau Lipea mo e kau ʻItiopea, te nau muimui ʻiate ia.

44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall affright him; and he shall go forth with great fury to destroy and utterly to take away many.

Ka te ne mamahi ʻia ʻi he ongoongo mei he potu hahake, pea mo e potu tokelau, ko ia te ne ʻalu atu ʻi he ʻita lahi, ke fakaʻauha mo fakaʻosiʻosingamālie ʻae tokolahi.

45 And he shall plant the tents of his palace between the seas and the beauteous holy mountain; and he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

Pea te ne fokotuʻu ʻae ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo hono nofoʻanga ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ngaahi tahi ʻi he moʻunga tapu mo nāunauʻia; kae hoko pe ʻa hono ngataʻanga, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe tokoni kiate ia.”
