< 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.
Mugore rechitatu ramambo Sirasi wePezhia, Dhanieri (iye ainzi Bheriteshazari) akazarurirwa. Shoko racho rakanga riri rechokwadi uye raireva kurwa kukuru. Akanzwisisa shoko iri nechiratidzo.
2 In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.
Panguva iyo, ini, Dhanieri ndakachema kwevhiki nhatu.
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.
Handina kudya zvokudya zvakanaka; kunyange nyama kana waini hazvina kusvika pamuromo wangu; uye handina kana kuzora mafuta kusvikira vhiki nhatu dzapera.
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;
Pazuva ramakumi maviri namana romwedzi wokutanga, pandaiva ndimire pamhenderekedzo yorwizi rukuru, irwo Tigirisi,
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:
ndakatarisa kumusoro uye hapo pamberi pangu pakanga pane murume akanga akapfeka nguo dzakaisvonaka, nebhanhire regoridhe rakanatswa muchiuno chake.
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.
Muviri wake wakanga wakaita sekirisoreti, chiso chake chichipenya semheni, meso ake aipfuta somwenje, maoko ake namakumbo ake zvichivaima sendarira yakakweshwa, uye inzwi rake rakanga rakafanana nokutinhira wavazhinji.
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.
Ini, Dhanieri, ndini ndoga chete ndakaona chiratidzo; varume vakanga vaneni havana kuchiona, asi kutyisa kwakadai kwakavavhundutsa zvokuti vakatiza vakandovanda.
8 Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my loveliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
Saka ndakasiyiwa ndiri ndoga, ndakatarira kuchiratidzo ichi chikuru; ndakanga ndisisina simba, chiso changu chakashanduka chikatsvukuruka uye ndakanga ndapererwa.
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.
Ipapo ndakamunzwa achitaura, uye pandakanga ndakateerera kwaari, ndakabatwa nehope huru, ndikatsikitsira pasi.
10 And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
Ruoko rwakandibata rukandiita kuti ndidedere pamaoko angu namabvi.
11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto you, and stand upright: for unto you am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
Iye akati kwandiri, “Dhanieri, iwe unokudzwa zvikuru, chichengeta zvikuru mashoko andava kutaura kwauri, uye usimuke, nokuti zvino ndatumwa kwauri.” Zvino paakareva izvi kwandiri, ndakasimuka ndichidedera.
12 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that you did set your heart to understand, and to chasten yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I am come for your words.
Ipapo akaenderera mberi akati, “Usatya, Dhanieri. Kubva pazuva rawakafunga kuwana kunzwisisa nokuzvininipisa pamberi paMwari wako, mashoko ako akanzwika, uye ini ndauya nemhinduro.
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.
Asi muchinda woumambo hwavaPezhia akandidzivisa mazuva makumi maviri nerimwe apfuura. Ipapo Mikaeri, mumwe mukuru wamachinda, akauya kuzondibatsira, nokuti ndakanga ndakavharidzirwa ikoko namambo wavaPezhia.
14 Now I am come to make you understand what shall befall your people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.
Zvino ndauya kuzokutsanangurira zvichaitika kuvanhu vako pamazuva anouya, nokuti chiratidzo ndechenguva ichauya.”
15 And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.
Achiri kutaura izvi kwandiri, ndakakotama ndakatsikitsira pasi ndikashaya chokutaura.
16 And, behold, one like the embodiment 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 the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.
Ipapo mumwe akanga akafanana nomunhu akabata muromo wangu, ini ndikashamisa muromo wangu ndokutanga kutaura. Ndakati kune akanga amire pamberi pangu, “Ini ndabatwa nokurwadziwa nokuda kwechiratidzo, ishe wangu, uye ndapererwa.
17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
Ndingataura sei nemi, ini muranda wenyu, ishe wangu? Simba rangu rapera uye handichakwanisi kufema.”
18 Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,
Zvakare, mumwe akanga akafanana nomunhu akandibata akandipa simba.
19 And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto you, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for you have strengthened me.
Akati, “Usatya, iwe munhu anokudzwa zvikuru. Rugare! Iva nesimba zvino, simba.” Paakataura neni, ndakabva ndasimba ndikati, “Taurai Ishe wangu, sezvo mandipa simba.”
20 Then said he, Know you wherefore I come unto you? 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.
Saka akati, “Unoziva here zvandavinga kwauri? Ndichadzokera nokukurumidza kundorwa nomuchinda wePezhia, uye kana ndaenda, muchinda weGirisi achauya;
21 But I will show you that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holds with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
asi chokutanga ndichakuudza zvakanyorwa muBhuku reZvokwadi. Hakuna anonditsigira kundorwa navo kunze kwaMikaeri, muchinda wako.
