< Daniel 8 >
1 In the third year of the reign of king Baltasar a vision appeared to me, [even] to me Daniel, after that which appeared to me at the first.
A shekara ta uku ta mulkin sarki Belshazar, ni, Daniyel, na ga wahayi, bayan wancan da na riga gani.
2 And I was in Susa the palace, which is in the land of Aelam, and I was on the [bank of] Ubal.
A cikin wahayin, na ga kaina a mafakar Shusha a yankin Elam; a wahayin na ga ina a bakin Kogin Ulai.
3 And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, a ram standing in front of the Ubal; and he had high horns; and one was higher than the other, and the high one came up last.
Na ɗaga ido, a gabana kuwa sai ga rago mai ƙahoni biyu, yana tsaye a gefen mashigin kogin, ƙahonin kuma suna da tsawo. Ɗaya daga cikin ƙahonin ya fi ɗayan tsawo. Wanda ya fi tsawon shi ne ya tsiro daga baya.
4 And I saw the ram butting westward, and northward, and southward; and no beast could stand before him, and there was none that could deliver out of his hand; and he did according to his will, and became great.
Na lura da ragon sa’ad da ya kai karo wajen yamma da arewa da kudu. Babu wata dabbar da ta iya ƙarawa da shi, babu kuma wanda ya iya kuɓuta daga ikonsa. Ya yi yadda ya ga dama, ya kuma zama mai girma.
5 And I was considering, and, behold, a he-goat came from the southwest on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the earth: and the goat [had] a horn between his eyes.
Yayinda nake tunani game da wannan, farat ɗaya sai ga bunsurun da yake da sanannen ƙaho tsakanin idanunsa ya ɓullo daga wajen yamma, yana ratsa dukan duniya ba ya ko taɓa ƙasa.
6 And he came to the ram that had the horns, which I had seen standing in front of the Ubal, and he ran at him with the violence of his strength.
Ya zo wajen rago mai ƙahoni biyu ɗin nan da na riga na gani tsaye a gefen mashigin kogin nan ya tasar masa da fushi mai zafi.
7 And I saw him coming up close to the ram, and he was furiously enraged against him, and he struck the ram, and broke both his horns: and there was no strength in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him on the ground, and trampled on him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.
Na ga ya zo kusa da ragon, ya husata da shi ƙwarai, ya kai wa ragon hari. Ya kakkarya ƙahoninsa nan biyu. Ƙarfin ragon ya kāsa, bai iya kāre kansa daga bunsurun ba. Bunsurun ya buge shi ƙasa ya tattake shi. Ba wanda ya iya ceton ragon daga bunsurun.
8 And the he-goat grew exceedingly great: and when he was strong, his great horn was broken; and four other [horns] rose up in its place toward the four winds of heaven.
Bunsurun kuwa ya ƙasaita, amma a ƙwanƙolin ikonsa sai aka karye babban ƙahonsa, kuma a wurin da ƙahon nan ya kasance waɗansu sanannun ƙahoni huɗu suka tsiro suna fuskantar kusurwoyin nan huɗu.
9 And out of one of them came forth one strong horn, and it grew very great toward the south, and toward the host:
Daga cikin ɗayansu kuma wani ƙaramin ƙaho ya fito, ya yi girma ya ƙasaita ƙwarai zuwa kudu da kuma gabas da wajen Kyakkyawar Ƙasa.
10 and it magnified itself to the host of heaven; and there fell to the earth [some] of the host of heaven and of the stars, and they trampled on them.
Ya yi girma sai da ya kai rundunar sammai, ya kuma fid da waɗansu rundunar taurari zuwa ƙasa ya kuma tattake su.
11 And [this shall be] until the chief captain shall have delivered the captivity: and by reason of him the sacrifice was disturbed, and he prospered; and the holy place shall be made desolate.
Sai ya ɗora kansa ya zama mai girma kamar Sarkin runduna; sai aka ɗauke hadaya ta kullayaumi daga gare shi, aka kuma saukar da wurin masujadarsa ƙasa.
12 And a sin-offering was given for the sacrifice, and righteousness was cast down to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.
Saboda tawaye, sai aka ba da rundunar tsarkaka da kuma hadayar ƙonawa ta kowace rana ga ƙahon. Sai ya yi watsi da gaskiya, ya yi abin da ya ga dama, ya kuwa yi nasara.
13 And I heard one saint speaking, and a saint said to a certain one speaking, How long shall the vision continue, [even] the removal of the sacrifice, and the bringing in of the sin of desolation; and [how long] shall the sanctuary and host be trampled?
Sa’an nan na ji mai tsarkin nan yana magana, wani mai tsarki kuma ya ce da wancan, “Har yaushe wannan wahayi zai tabbata, wahayi game da hadaya ta kullayaumi, da tawayen da yake kawo lalacewa, da kuma miƙa wuri mai tsarki da kuma na rundunar da za a tattake a ƙarƙashin sawu?”
14 And he said to him, Evening and morning [there shall be] two thousand and four hundred days; and [then] the sanctuary shall be cleansed.
Sai ya ce mini, “Zai ɗauki safiya da yamma 2,300; sa’an nan za a sāke tsarkake wuri mai tsarki.”
15 And it came to pass, as I, [even] I Daniel, saw the vision, and sought to understand it, that, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.
Yayinda ni, Daniyel, nake duban wahayi ina ƙoƙari in fahimce shi, sai ga wani a gabana wanda ya yi kama da mutum.
16 And I heard the voice of a man between [the banks of] the Ubal; and he called, and said, Gabriel, cause that man to understand the vision.
Sai na ji muryar wani mutum daga Ulai tana cewa, “Jibra’ilu, faɗa wa wannan mutum ma’anar wahayin.”
17 And he came and stood near where I stood: and when he came, I was struck with awe, and fell upon my face: but he said to me, Understand, son of man: for yet the vision is for an appointed time.
Da ya zo kusa da inda nake tsaye, na firgita na kuma fāɗi rubda ciki. Ya ce da ni “Ɗan mutum, ka gane da cewa wannan wahayi yana magana ne a kan kwanakin ƙarshe.”
18 And while he spoke with me, I fell upon my face to the earth: and he touched me, and set me on my feet.
Yayinda yake magana da ni, barci mai nauyi ya kwashe ni, da nake kwance rubda ciki. Sai ya taɓa ni ya kuma tashe ni tsaye.
19 And he said, Behold, I make you know the things that shall come to pass at the end of the wrath: for the vision [is] yet for an appointed time.
Sai ya ce, “Zan faɗa maka abin da zai faru a lokacin fushi, saboda wahayin yana magana ne a kan lokacin da aka ƙayyade na ƙarshe.
20 The ram which you saw that had the horns is the king of the Medes and Persians.
Rago mai ƙahoni biyu da ka gani, yana a madadin sarakunan Medes da Farisa ne.
21 The he-goat is the King of the Greeks: and the great horn which was between his eyes, he is the first king.
Bunsurun kuwa sarkin Girka ne, kuma babban ƙahon da yake tsakanin idanunsa, sarki na farko ne.
22 And [as for] the one that was broken, in whose place there stood up four horns, four kings shall arise out of his nation, but not in their [own] strength.
Ƙahoni huɗu da suka maya wannan da ya karye yana a madadin masarautu huɗu da za su tashi daga cikin al’ummarsa amma ba za su sami irin ikonsa ba.
23 And at the latter time of their kingdom, when their sins are coming to the full, there shall arise a king bold in countenance, and understanding riddles.
“Can wajen ƙarshe mulkinsu, sa’ad da muguntarsu ta kai intaha, wani mugun sarki mai rashin hankali, uban makirci, zai fito.
24 And his power [shall be] great, and he shall destroy wonderfully, and prosper, and practise, and shall destroy mighty men, and the holy people.
Zai yi ƙarfi ƙwarai da gaske, amma ba da ikonsa ba. Zai jawo mummunar hallakarwa kuma zai yi nasara a duk abin da ya sa gaba. Zai hallakar da majiya ƙarfi da kuma tsarkaka.
25 And the yoke of his chain shall prosper: [there is] craft in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by craft shall destroy many, and he shall stand up for the destruction of many, and shall crush them as eggs in his hand.
Zai sa yaudara ta ƙara yin yawa, zai ɗaukaka kansa. Sa’ad da suke ji sun sami mafaka, zai hallaka mutane da yawa sa’an nan kuma yă fara gāba da Sarkin sarakuna. Duk da haka za a hallaka shi, amma ba da ikon mutum ba.
26 And the vision of the evening and morning that was mentioned is true: and do you seal the vision; for [it is] for many days.
“Wahayin nan na safiya da yamma da aka nuna maka gaskiya ne, amma ka ɓoye wahayin, gama ya shafi nan gaba mai tsawo ne.”
27 And I Daniel fell asleep, and was sick: then I arose, and did the king's business; and I wondered at the vision, and there was none that understood [it].
Ni, Daniyel, na gaji matuƙa na kuma yi rashin lafiya na kwanaki masu yawa. Sa’an nan sai na tashi na ci gaba da hidimar sarki. Wahayin ya shige mini duhu, ya fi ƙarfin fahimtata.
