Daniel 10
1 IN the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.
Треће године Кира, цара персијског, објави се реч Данилу, који се зваше Валтасар; и реч беше истинита и о великим стварима; и разабра реч и разуме утвару.
2 In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.
У то време ја Данило бејах у жалости три недеље дана.
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.
Јела угодна не једох, ни месо ни вино не уђе у моја уста, нити се намазах уљем док се не навршише три недеље дана.
4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel;
А двадесет четвртог дана првог месеца бејах на брегу велике реке Хидекела.
5 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:
И подигох очи своје и видех, а то један човек обучен у платно, и појас беше око њега од чистог злата из Уфаза;
6 His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
А тело му беше као хрисолит, и лице му као муња, а очи му као лучеви запаљени, а руке и ноге као бронза углађена, а глас од речи његових као глас многог људства.
7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.
И ја Данило сам видех утвару, а људи што беху са мном не видеше је, али их попаде страх велик, те побегоше и сакрише се.
8 Therefore 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.
И остах сам и видех ту велику утвару, и не оста снаге у мени, и лепота ми се нагрди, и не имах снаге.
9 Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.
И чух глас од речи његових, и кад чух глас од речи његових, изван себе падох ничице лицем на земљу.
10 And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
И гле, рука ме се дотаче и подиже ме на колена моја и на дланове моје.
11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
И рече ми: Данило, мили човече! Слушај речи које ћу ти казати, и стани право, јер сам сада послан к теби. И кад ми рече ту реч, устах дрхћући.
12 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
И рече ми: Не бој се, Данило, јер првог дана кад си управио срце своје да разумеваш и да мучиш себе пред Богом својим, услишене бише речи твоје, и ја дођох твојих речи ради.
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 remained there with the kings of Persia.
Али кнез царства персијског стаја ми насупрот двадесет и један дан; али, гле, Михаило један од првих кнезова дође ми у помоћ; тако ја остах онде код царева персијских.
14 Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.
И дођох да ти кажем шта ће бити твом народу после; јер ће још бити утвара за те дане.
15 And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.
И кад ми говораше тако, оборих очи своје на земљу и занемех.
16 And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.
И гле, као човек дотаче се усана мојих, и отворих уста своја, и проговорих и рекох оном који стајаше према мени: Господару мој, од ове утваре навалише моји болови на мене и нема снаге у мени.
17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
А како може слуга мог господара говорити с господарем мојим? Јер од овог часа у мени неста снаге и ни дихање не оста у мени.
18 Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,
Тада онај што беше као човек опет ме се дотаче и охрабри ме.
19 And 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.
И рече: Не бој се, мили човече; мир да ти је! Охрабри се, охрабри се. И докле ми говораше, охрабрих се и рекох: Нека говори господар мој, јер си ме охрабрио.
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 am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.
А он рече: Знаш ли зашто сам дошао к теби? А сада ћу се вратити да војујем на кнеза персијског; потом ћу отићи, и гле, доћи ће кнез грчки.
21 But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
Али ћу ти казати шта је написано у књизи истинитој. Нема никога да јуначки ради са мном у том осим Михаила, кнеза вашег.
