< Daniel 7 >

1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed; then he wrote the dream and told the sum of the matters.
I KA makahiki mua o Belehazara, ke alii o Babulona, he moe uhane ko Daniela, a me ka lia o kona poo maluna o kona wahi moe. Alaila palapala iho la o Daniela i ua moe la, a hoike aku ia i ka nui o ia mau mea.
2 Daniel spoke and said: I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven broke forth upon the great sea.
Olelo aku la o Daniela, i aku, Ua ike au ma ko'u hihio ana i ka po, aia hoi, ua paio ikaika ae la ua makani eha o ka lani maluua iho o ke kai nui.
3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
A hoea mai la na holoholona nui eha mailoko mai o ke kai, ua like ole ko lakou ano kekahi me kekahi.
4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings; I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked off, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon two feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
O ka mua, ua like ia me ka liona, a he mau eheu aeto kona; ike aku la au a mokumokuia iho la kona mau eheu, a hapaiia ae la ia iluna mai ka honua ae, a hookuia ae la ma na wawae me he kanaka la, a haawiia aku he naau kanaka noua.
5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth; and it was said thus unto it: 'Arise, devour much flesh.'
Aia hoi, kekahi holoholona e, o ka lua ia, o kona ano ua like ia me ka bea, hoala ae la oia ia ia iho ma kona aoao iho, aia hoi, ekolu iwi aoao iloko o kona waha iwaena o kona mau niho; a olelu ae la lakou ia ia, E ku ae oe, e ai i ka io he nui.
6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the sides of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
A mahope iho o keia, ike aku ia au, aia hoi kekahi, ua like me ka leopadi, a maluua o kona kua eha mau eheu manu; eha no hoi poo o ua holoholona la; a ua haawiia mai ia ia ke alii ana.
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet; and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
A mahopo iho o keia, ike hou aku la au ma ka hihio ana i ka po, aia hoi kekahi holoholona e, o ka ha ia, he mea weliweli loa ia, he mea makau nui, he nui hoi kona ikaika; he mau niho hao nui kona, ua ai wale aku ia, a okaoka liilii, a hehi iho la ia i ke koena malalo o kona mau wawae; aole ia i like iki me na holoholona mamua. He umi hoi na pepeiaohao ona.
8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots; and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.
I ko'u noonoo ana i ua mau pepeiaohao la, aia hoi, kupu mai la iwaenakonu o lakou kekahi pepeiaohao uuku, uhukiia ae la imua ona na pepeiaohao mua ekolu: a iloko o ua pepeiaohao uuku la, aia hoi, he mau maka me he maka kanaka la, a he waha hoi e olelo ana i na mea nui.
9 I beheld till thrones were placed, and one that was ancient of days did sit: his raiment was as white snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, and the wheels thereof burning fire.
Ike aku la au, a ua kauia iho la na nohoalii, a ua noho mai la ka Makamua o na la, ua huali loa kona kapa e like me ka hau, a o ka lauoho o kona poo ua like me ka hulu hipa maemae; o kona nohoalii, ua like ia me ka lapalapa ana o ke ahi, a o kona mau kaa e like me ke ahi e aa ana.
10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him; thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him; the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
A puka mai la kekahi lapala pa ahi a kahe ae mai kona alo aku: lawelawe nona na tausani o na tausani, a ku iho la imua ona ua lehulehu o na lehulehu: ua hoonohoia iho la ka hookolokolo, a weheia ae la na buke.
11 I beheld at that time because of the voice of the great words which the horn spoke, I beheld even till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given to be burned with fire.
Nana aku la au, a no ka leo o na huaolelo nui a ua pepeiaohao la i olelo ai; nana au a pepehiia iho la ka holoholona, a ua lukuia kona kino, a ua hooleiia no hoi ma ke ahi e aa ana.
12 And as for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away; yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
A o na holoholona i koe, ua laweia'ku ko lakou alii ana; aka ua hooloihiia ko lakou ola ana no kekahi manawa a me ka wa.
13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of days, and he was brought near before Him.
A ike aku la no hoi au ma ka hihio ana i ka po, aia hoi, kekahi ua like ia me ke keiki a ke kanaka e hele mai ana ma na ao o ka lani, a hele mai no ia i ka Makamua o na la, a hookokoke lakou ia ia imua ona.
14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
A ua haawiia mai nona ke alii ana, a me ka nani, a me ke aupuni, i hookauwa nana na lahuikanaka, a me ko na aina, a me na olelo e. O kona alii ana ua mau loa ia, aole ia e pau, a o kona aupuni, aole ia e auhulihia.
15 As for me Daniel, my spirit was pained in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head affrighted me.
Owau, o Daniela nei, ua kaumaha loa kuu naau iloko o kuu kino, a ua pihoihoi au i na lia o kuu poo.
16 I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth concerning all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things:
Hookokoke aku la au i kekahi o na mea e ku ana malaila, a ninau aku la au ia ia i ka oiaio ana o keia mau mea a pau. Alaila hai mai la oia ia'u, a hoakaka mai ia'u i ke ano o keia mau mea.
17 'These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, that shall arise out of the earth.
O keia mau holoholona nui eha, he mau alii lakou eha, na mea e hoea iluna mai ka honua ae.
18 But the saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.'
Aka, o na haipule o ka Mea kiekie loa, e lilo ia lakou ke aupuni; a ia lakou no ke aupuni ia ao aku, ia ao aku, a mau loa aku no.
19 Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth beast, which was diverse from all of them, exceeding terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet;
Alaila, makemake aku la au e ike i ke ano o ka ha o ua mau holoholona la, i ka mea i ano e i ko lakou a pau, i ka mea weliweli loa, nona na niho hao, a me na maiuu keleawe; ka mea nana i luku a okaoka loa, a hehi no hoi i ke koena malalo o kona mau wawae;
20 and concerning the ten horns that were on its head, and the other horn which came up, and before which three fell; even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke great things, whose appearance was greater than that of its fellows.
A o kona mau pepeiaohao he umi maluna o kona poo, a me kekahi mea i kupu ae, ua hina hoi na mea ekolu imua ona; ua pepeiaohao la nona na maka, a me ka waha hoi e olelo ana i na mea nui, a ua oi aku ka ikaika o kona maka mamua o ko kona poe hoa.
21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
Ike aku la au i ua pepeiaohao la e kaua aku ana ia i ka poe haipule, a lanakila ia maluna o lakou;
22 until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given for the saints of the Most High; and the time came, and the saints possessed the kingdom.
A hiki mai la ka Makamua o na la, a haawiia mai i ka poe haipule o ka Mea kiekie ka hoopai ana; a ua hiki mai ka manawa e lilo ai ke aupuni i ka poe haipule.
23 Thus he said: 'The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
Penei kana i i mai ai, O ka ha o ua mau holoholona la, o ka ha no ia o ke aupuni ma ka honua, he mea ano e ia i na aupuni a pau; a e luku loa ia i ko ka honua, a e hehi ia mea ilalo, a okaoka liilii loa.
24 And as for the ten horns, out of this kingdom shall ten kings arise; and another shall arise after them; and he shall be diverse from the former, and he shall put down three kings.
A o na pepeiaohao he umi noloko mai no o keia aupuni, he mau alii ia he umi e ku mai ana; a o kekahi mea e ku mai ana no mahope o lakou; aole like ia me ka mea mua, a e luku hoi ia i na'lii ekolu.
25 And he shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High; and he shall think to change the seasons and the law; and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and half a time.
A e olelo ia i na mea nui ku e i ka Mea kiekie, a e hookaumaha aku ia i ka poe haipule o ka Mea kiekie loa, a e manao iho no ia e hookahuli i na manawa, a me na kanawai; a e haawiia ia mau mea iloko o kona lima, a hiki i ka manawa, a me kekahi manawa, a me ka mahele o ka manawa.
26 But the judgment shall sit, and his dominions shall be taken away, to be consumed and to be destroy unto the end.
Alaila, e hoonohoia ka hookolokolo, a e laweia aku ke aupuni mai ona aku la, e hoopauia ua mea la, a e lukuia hoi, a hiki i ka hopeua.
27 And the kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; their kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey them.'
Aka, o ke aupuni, a me ke alii ana, a o ka nani o ke aupuni malalo iho o na lani a puni, e haawiia mai i na kanaka haipule o ka Mea kiekie, o kona aupuni he aupuni mau loa ia; ao na'lii a pau, e hookauwa aku, a e malama aku no hoi ia ia.
28 Here is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my thoughts much affrighted me, and my countenance was changed in me; but I kept the matter in my heart.
Eia ka hope o keia mea; Owau, o Daniela, ua kaumaha au i kuu manao iho, ua ano e ko'u maka; aka, ua huna au i keia mea iloko o ko'u naau iho.
