< 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.
Ķēniņa Belsacara trešā valdīšanas gadā man, Daniēlim, rādījās parādīšana, pēc tās, kas man papriekš bija parādījusies.
2 And I was in Susa the palace, which is in the land of Aelam, and I was on the [bank of] Ubal.
Un es skatījos tai parādīšanā, un notika, ka es skatīdamies biju Sūsanas pilī Elama valstī, un es skatījos tai parādīšanā, un es biju pie Ulaī upes.
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.
Un es pacēlu savas acis un skatījos, redzi, auns stāvēja upes malā, tam bija divi ragi, un tie divi ragi bija augsti, un viens bija augstāks nekā otrs, un tas augstākais izcēlās vēlāk.
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.
Es redzēju, ka tas auns ar saviem ragiem badīja pret vakariem un pret ziemeļa pusi un pret dienasvidu, un neviens zvērs pret viņu nevarēja pastāvēt, un neviens no viņa rokas neizglābās, bet viņš darīja, kas tam patika un paaugstinājās.
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.
Un kamēr es to pārdomāju, redzi, tad āzis nāca no vakariem pār visu zemes virsu un neaizskāra zemi, un tam āzim bija skaists rags starp viņa acīm.
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.
Un tas nāca pie tā auna ar tiem diviem ragiem, ko es biju redzējis stāvam upes malā, un tas lauzās pret viņu ar stipru karstumu.
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.
Un es redzēju, ka tas tuvu nāca pie tā auna un pret viņu apskaitās un badīja to aunu un salauza viņa divus ragus, un tam aunam nebija spēka, viņa priekšā pastāvēt, un viņš to nometa zeme un to samina, un neviena nebija, kas to aunu izglābtu no viņa rokas.
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.
Un tas āzis ļoti paaugstinājās, bet kad tas bija palicis stiprs, tad tas lielais rags salūza, un viņa vietā četri skaisti ragi izauga pret tiem četriem debess vējiem.
9 And out of one of them came forth one strong horn, and it grew very great toward the south, and toward the host:
Un no viena no tiem iznāca viens mazs rags, tas tapa ļoti liels pret dienasvidu un pret rītiem un pret to mīlīgo zemi.
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.
Un tas tapa liels līdz debess pulkam un nometa kādus no tā pulka un no tām zvaigznēm zemē un tos samina.
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.
Un tas tapa liels līdz debess pulka valdniekam, un šim tapa atņemts tas dienišķais upuris, un viņa svētās vietas dzīvoklis tapa izpostīts.
12 And a sin-offering was given for the sacrifice, and righteousness was cast down to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.
Un karapulks tika nodots līdz ar dienišķo upuri apgrēkošanās dēļ, un tas (rags) nometa patiesību pie zemes, un ko viņš darīja, tas viņam izdevās.
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?
Un es dzirdēju vienu svētu runājam, un cits svēts sacīja uz to, kas runāja: uz cik ilgu laiku tad zīmējās tā parādīšana par to dienišķo upuri un par to briesmīgo grēku, ka ir tā svētā vieta, ir tas karapulks top nodoti samīšanai?
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.
Un viņš uz mani sacīja: divi tūkstoši un trīssimt dienas būs skaitāmas no vakara līdz rītam, tad tā svētā vieta atkal taps iesvētīta.
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.
Un kad es, Daniēls, to parādīšanu redzēju, tad es to meklēju saprast, un redzi, tur stāvēja manā priekšā viens, no izskata kā vīrs.
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.
Un es dzirdēju starp Ulaī upes (malām) cilvēka balsi, tā sauca un sacīja: Gabriel, izskaidro šim to parādīšanu.
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.
Un viņš nāca tuvu, kur es stāvēju; un kad viņš nāca, tad es izbijos un kritu uz savu vaigu; un viņš uz mani sacīja: ņem vērā, cilvēka bērns, jo šī parādīšana iet uz pastara laiku.
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.
Kad viņš nu ar mani runāja, tad es nokritu pamiris pie zemes, bet viņš mani aizskāra un mani uzcēla stāvu.
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.
Un viņš sacīja: redzi, es tev daru zināmu, kas notiks dusmības gala laikā; jo tas iet uz to nolikto laika galu.
20 The ram which you saw that had the horns is the king of the Medes and Persians.
Tas auns ar tiem diviem ragiem, ko tu esi redzējis, tie ir Mēdiešu un Persiešu ķēniņi.
21 The he-goat is the King of the Greeks: and the great horn which was between his eyes, he is the first king.
Un tas sprogainais āzis ir Grieķu ķēniņš, un tas lielais rags starp viņa acīm, ir tas pirmais ķēniņš.
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.
Un kad tas būs salūzis, tad četri nāks viņa vietā; četras valstis celsies no tās tautas, bet ne ar tādu spēku, kāds viņam bija.
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.
Bet šīs valsts pastara laikā, kad tie atkāpēji augumā būs auguši, celsies nikns un izmanīgs ķēniņš.
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.
Un viņa spēks būs stiprs, bet ne caur paša spēku, un viņš brīnišķi postīs un viņam laimēsies, un viņš to padarīs. Un viņš postīs tos varenos un to svēto tautu.
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.
Un caur viņa gudrību viltus viņa rokā tam izdosies, un viņš savā sirdī leposies un nejauši postīs lielu pulku, un celsies pretī tam valdnieku Valdniekam, bet viņš bez rokas taps salauzts.
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.
Un tas parādījums par vakaru un rītu, par ko runāts, ir patiesīgs un tu apslēp šo parādījumu, jo vēl ir ilgs laiks līdz tam.
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].
Un es, Daniēls, paliku vājš un biju kādas dienas slims. Tad es cēlos un darīju ķēniņa darbu, un iztrūcinājos par šo parādījumu, bet neviens to nemanīja.
