< Daniel 11 >

1 And I in the first year of Darius the Mede had my station to assist and to protect him.
El pa kasreyu ac loangeyu.
2 And now will I tell thee the truth. Behold, there will stand up yet three kings of Persia: and the fourth will obtain far greater riches than all [these]: and when he is strong through his riches will he stir up all, [namely, ] the kingdom of Javan.
Ac ma nga ac fahk nu sum inge ma na pwaye.” Na lipufan sac fahk, “Ac fah oasr tokosra tolu su ac fah leumi acn Persia, na toko ac oasr pac tokosra se akakosr, su ac fah kasrup liki tokosra meet ah kewa. In pacl se na ma yohk ku ac kasrup lal uh, na el ac fah lain tokosrai lun Greece.
3 And then will stand up a mighty king, who will rule with great dominion, and do according to his pleasure.
“Toko, na tokosra na pwengpeng se ac fah sikyak. El ac fah leumi tokosrai na lulap se, ac oru na ma el ac lungse oru uh.
4 And when he shall have stood, his kingdom will be broken, and will be divided toward the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled; for his kingdom will be torn asunder even for others beside those.
Tusruktu pacl se na ma tokosrai lal uh ac kui na pwaye uh, na ac musalelik ac kitakatelik nu ke ip akosr. Mwet in sou lal ac fah tia eis wal lal, a mwet saya ac fah aolul in leum, tusruktu elos ac tiana ku oana ke pacl ma el tuh tokosra uh.
5 And the king of the south will become strong, yea, he who is one of his princes; but [another] will become strong against him, and will rule: a great dominion will his dominion be.
“Tokosra lun Egypt el ac arulana ku. Tusruktu siena sin mwet mweun fulat lal ac mau yohk ku la lukel, ac leumi sie tokosrai yohk liki na tokosrai lal uh.
6 But at the end of [some] years will they associate themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make a settlement of difficulties; but she will not retain the power of the support; neither will he stand, nor his support: but she will be given up with those that had brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in those times.
In kutu yac toko, tokosra lun Egypt el ac fah orala sie akupasri nu sin tokosra lun Syria, ac sang acn se natul in payuk sel. Tusruktu, asruoki se inge ac tia oan paht, mweyen mutan sac, mukul tumal, tulik se natul, ac mutan kulansap ma welul som uh, nufon ac fah anwuki.
7 But there will up a sprout of her roots in his place, and he will come to the army, and will enter into the stronghold of the king of the north, and will deal with them, and prevail:
Ac tia paht tukun ma inge, na sie sin mukul in sou lun mutan sac ac fah tokosrala. El ac fah tuyak mweuni un mwet mweun lun tokosra lun Syria, utyak nu in pot ku lalos, ac kutangulosla.
8 And also their gods with their molten images, with their precious vessels of silver and of gold, will he carry into captivity to Egypt; and he will stand off some years from the king of the north.
El ac fah eis ma sruloala in luman god lalos, ac ma saya su orekla ke gold ac silver ma kisakinyukla nu sin god inge, ac folokunla nu Egypt. Tukun kutu yac ma oasr misla inmasrlolos,
9 But this one will then enter the kingdom of the king of the south, and then return into his own land.
tokosra lun Syria el ac sifil utyak nu fin acn Egypt, tusruktu ac folokinyukla el liki acn we.
10 But his sons will commence a war, and assemble a multitude of great armies; and one will certainly enter, and overflow, and pass along: then will he return, and make war again, even to his stronghold.
“Wen nutin tokosra lun acn Syria elos ac fah akoo elos in mweun, ac orani sie un mwet mweun na lulap. Sie selos ac fah pokla ma fin acn uh nufon oana sronot se, ac mweuni nien muta ku lun mwet lokoalok su ma kuhlusyukyak ke pot na ku.
11 And the king of the south will be moved with bitter wrath, and go forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he will set forth a great multitude; but the multitude [of the other] will be given up into his hand.
In kasrkusrak lal, tokosra lun Egypt el ac tuyak mweuni tokosra lun Syria, ac sruokya un mwet mweun na lulap se lal ah.
12 And the multitude will be lifted up, and his heart will become proud; and he will cast down myriads; but he will not be strengthened by it.
El ac mau insefulatak ke kutangla lal, ac ke mwet mweun pus ma el uniya uh, tusruktu ac tia sifilpa oasr kutangla lal tok.
13 And the king of the north will return, and set forth a multitude greater than the former; and at the end of the times, of years, will he certainly come with a great army and with much riches.
“Tokosra lun Syria el ac folokla ac sifilpa orani sie un mwet mweun lal su ac yohk liki ma meet ah. Na ke kutu yac tok, el ac foloko wi sie un mwet mweun na lulap ac kufwen mwe mweun puspis.
14 And in those times many will stand up against the king of the south: also the rebellious sons of thy people will lift themselves up to establish the vision; but they will stumble.
Na mwet puspis ac fah tukeni lain tokosra lun Egypt. Ac kutu mwet ma lungse orek lokoalok in facl sum, Daniel, ac fah wi tuyak lain tokosra lun Egypt ke sripen sie aruruma ma elos liye, tusruktu ac fah kutangyukla elos.
15 And the king of the north will come, and cast up a mound, and capture the city defended by fortifications: and the arms of the south will not withstand, and as regardeth his chosen people, there will be no power [in them] to withstand.
Ouinge tokosra Syria el ac fah kuhlasla sie siti su arulana akkeyeyukla, ac sruokya. Mwet mweun lun Egypt elos ac fah tia sifil mweun — finne elos su wo emeet ke mweun, ac fah wanginla pac ku lalos.
16 But he that cometh against them will do according to his pleasure, and none will stand before him; and he will place himself in the glorious land, which will be altogether in his hand.
Mwet Syria se ma utyak ac eisla acn inge uh ac oru na ma el lungse oru nu selos, ac wanginna lainyal. El ac fah tu in Fulan Wuleang ac leumi nufon acn we.
17 He will also direct his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, having professions of peace with him; and thus will he do it: and he will give him the daughter of his wife to destroy it: but it will not stand, and it will not remain his.
“Tokosra lun Syria el ac akoo elan oru fahsr se lal nu in acn inge, ac el ac us nufon mwet mweun lal welul. Na ke sripen el kena kunausla tokosrai lun mwet lokoalok lal, el ac fah oru sie pwapa in akasrui inmasrloltal, ac sang acn natul in payuk nusel. Tusruktu ma el ako in oru inge ac tiana fahla oana ma el nunku.
18 And he will direct his face unto the isles, and capture many; but a chieftain will cause to cease his reproach against him: without his giving back to him his own reproach.
Tukun ma inge, el ac fah mweuni facl ma muta sisken meoa uh, ac kutangla acn pus selos. Tusruktu, sie mwet kol sac ac fah kutangulla, ac tulokinya orek funmwet lal. Aok, el ac folokonang ouiya koluk lun tokosra Syria nu facl sifacna.
19 Then will he direct his face toward the strong-holds of his own land; but he will stumble and fall, and will no more be found.
Na tokosra sac el ac fah folokla nu nien muta ku lun mwet mweun in acn sel sifacna, tusruktu ac kutangyukla pac el, na ac pa ingan saflaiyal.
20 And there will stand up in his place one who will cause the exactor [of taxes] to pass through the glorious [land] of the kingdom; but within a few days will he be broken, but not in anger, nor in battle.
“Na sie pacna tokosra ac fah aolul, su ac fah supwala sie mwet leum lal in akkeokye mwet inge ke el akyokye tax lalos in akkasrupye tokosrai lal. Ac ke pacl na fototo, tokosra sac ac fah anwuki, tusruktu tia ye mutun mwet uh, ac tia pac ke mweun.”
21 And there will stand up in his place a despicable person, to whom they assigned not the honor of the kingdom; but he will come in quietly, and lay hold of the kingdom by flatteries.
Lipufan sac sifilpa fahk, “Tokosra se lun acn Syria tok uh ac mwet na koluk se su wangin suwohs la elan tokosrala, tusruktu el ac mahsrikyak na sruokya wal uh ke inkanek kutasrik lal.
22 And the powers of the overflow will be swept away from before him, and will be broken: yea, so also the prince in covenant [with him].
Kutena mwet ma lainul uh, finne mwet Tol Fulat lun God uh, ac fah pokyukla ac sisila elos.
23 And from the time of his associating with him will he deal deceitfully; and he will come up, and obtain the victory with a small number of people.
Ke inkanek kikiap lal, el ac orek wuleang nu sin mutunfacl saya, na ku lal uh ac yokyokelik, finne kitin facl na srisrik pa el leumi.
24 In quiet and into the fattest portion of the province will he enter; and he will do what his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers: the prey, and spoil, and riches will he divide freely to them, and against the strong-holds will he devise his plans, but only till a certain time.
El ac utyak na eisla ipin acn na kasrup in lukma, ac oru kais kutu ouiya ma mwet matu in sou lal uh tia wi oru meet. Na el ac kitalik acn, ac kutena ma elos sruokya ke mweun uh, nu sin mwet ma welul uh. El ac oru akoo lal in sruokya kutu nien muta ku ma potyak, tusruktu pacl lal uh ac sa na in safla.
25 And he will then stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army: and the king of the south will prepare himself for the war with an exceedingly great and mighty army; but he will not stand; for they will devise [evil] plans against him.
“El ac fah tuyak na orani sie un mwet mweun na lulap in mweuni tokosra lun Egypt, su ac akola pacna in mweun lainul ke sie pacna un mwet mweun na lulap ac fokoko. Tusruktu tokosra lun Egypt ac fah kiapweyukla, ac tiana orala ma el akoo in oru uh.
26 Yea, they that eat of his food will bring his downfall, and the army of the other will overflow; and many will fall down slain.
Mwet pwapa fulat ma el lulalfongi emeet sin mwet lal uh ac kunausulla. Pus sin mwet mweun lal ac fah anwuki, ac un mwet mweun lal uh ac fah sikiyukla.
27 And as for both these kings, their heart is bent on mischief, and at one table will they speak lies; but it shall not prosper; for the end is yet for the time appointed.
Na tokosra luo inge ac fah tukeni muta mongo ke tepu sefanna, tusruktu ma eltal akoo uh ma na koluk, ac eltal ac tukenina kiapu sie sin sie. Eltal ac tiana eis ma eltal lungse uh, mweyen soenna sun pacl lun ma inge.
28 Then will he return into his land with great riches, and his heart will be against the holy covenant: and he will do it, and return to his own land.
Tokosra lun Syria el ac us ma wap nukewa ma el sruokya ke mweun ac folokla nu yen sel, ac el wotela sel mu el ac kunausla alu lun mwet lun God uh. Tusruktu el ac oru oana ma el lungse nwe tari, na el fah folokla nu in acn sel.
29 At the time appointed will he return, and enter into the south; but not as in the former will it be in the latter time.
“Ac tok, el ac fah sifilpa utyak ac mweuni acn Egypt, tusruktu ma ac sikyak ke fwil se inge ac tia oana fahsr se meet ah.
30 For there will come against him the ships of Kittim; and he will become faint-hearted, and return, and will rage against the holy covenant; and he will do it: and he will return, and have an understanding with those that forsake the holy covenant.
Mwet Rome ac fah tuku ke oak meoa ac lainul, ac el ac fah arulana sangengla. “Na in kasrkusrak lal, el ac fah folokla ac srike in kunausla alu lun mwet lun God uh. El ac porongo ac oru oana kas in kasru ma mwet tila wi alu inge fahk nu sel uh.
31 And the army divisions will proceed from him, and they will defile the sanctuary, the fortress, and remove the continual sacrifice, and they will set up the desolating abomination.
Kutu sin mwet mweun lal ac arulana akfohkfokyela Tempul uh. Elos ac tulokinya kisa ma orek ke len nukewa uh, ac tulokunak Mwe Aksangeng na Upa sac.
32 And such as act wickedly against the covenant will he corrupt by flatteries; but the people that do know their God will be strong, and deal [valiantly].
Ke inkanek kutasrik lal, tokosra el ac eisla insien mwet ma srola liki alu lalos uh, ac elos fah akkeyal, tusruktu elos su srakna fahsr tukun God elos ac tu na ku ac lainul.
33 And the intelligent among the people will impart understanding to many: yet they will stumble through the sword, and through flame, through captivity, and through being plundered for some time.
Mwet kol ma lalmwetmet inmasrlon mwet uh ac fah sang etauk lalos in kasru mwet puspis. Tusruktu ke pacl na fototo, kutu selos ac fah misa ke mweun, ac kutu ac fah isisyak, ac kutu ac fah pusrla ma lalos, ac utukla elos nu in presin.
34 But in their stumbling will they be aided with a little help: but many will join themselves to them with deceptive flatteries.
Ke pacl ma anwuk inge orek uh, ac fah oasr kitin kasru nu sin mwet lun God, finne kutu mwet uh welulosla ke na sripen elos suk ma in wo nu selos sifacna.
35 And some of the intelligent will stumble, to make a purification among them, and to select and to cleanse them, until the time of the end; because it is yet for the time appointed.
Kutu sin mwet kol ma lalmwetmet ac fah anwuki, ac ke sripen misa lalos, mwet uh ac fah aknasnasyeyukla. Ac fah oana inge nwe ke safla pacl uh, pacl se ma God El oakiya.
36 And the king will do according to his pleasure; and he will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and against the God of gods will he speak incredible things, and he will prosper till the indignation be at an end; for that which is determined will be accomplished.
“Tokosra lun Syria el ac oru na ma el lungse oru. El ac konkin ac fahk mu el fulat liki kutena god, ac fulat liki pac God Fulatlana. El ac ku in oru ouinge nwe ke na sun pacl se ma God El akola in sang kai nu sel. God El ac oru oana ma El ako mu El ac oru.
37 And to the gods of his fathers will he pay no regard; and to the desire of women, or to any god whatever will he not pay any regard; for above all will he magnify himself.
Tokosra el ac fah pilesru god su mwet matu lal elos tuh kulansap nu se, ac oayapa god se su mutan elos lungse. Aok, el ac pilesru god nukewa, mweyen el pangon el fulat lukelos nukewa.
38 But in his place he will pay honor to the god of the fortresses; and to a god whom his fathers knew not will he pay honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and costly things.
A el ac akfulatye na god se ma karingin nien muta lun mwet mweun ma potiyukyak uh, ac sang mwe sang ke gold, silver, wek saok, ac kutu pac mwe lung wowo nu sin god ma mwet matu lal elos tia wi alu nu se uh.
39 This will he do for the very strong fortresses together with the strange god: whoever will acknowledge him, him will he give much honor; and he will cause such to rule over many, and he will divide out the land for a price.
El ac orekmakin mwet su alu nu sin sie god lun mwetsac in loango inkul potyak lun mwet mweun lal uh. El ac arulana akfulatye mwet ma akilen mu el mwet kol lalos, ac sang nien muta fulat nu selos, oayapa kitalos acn, in mwe srui nu selos.
40 And at the time of the end will the king of the south push against him; and the king of the north will come against him like a storm-wind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he will enter into some countries, and will overflow and press along.
“Ke apkuran in sun ao safla lun tokosra lun Syria, tokosra lun Egypt el ac tuyak mweunel, ac tokosra Syria el ac lainul pac ke kuiyal nufon. El ac orekmakin chariot, horse, ac oak meoa pukanten. El ac utyak oana kof ke sie sronot, ac eisla mutunfacl puspis.
41 And he will enter into the glorious land, and much will be overthrown; but these will escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the first portion of the children of 'Ammon.
El ac fah utyak pac mweuni Fulan Wuleang, ac uniya ngoul tausin mwet, tusruk acn Edom, acn Moab, ac acn lula lun Ammon ac fah painmoulla.
42 And he will stretch forth his hand against some countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape.
Ke el ac utyak mweuni acn inge nukewa, acn Egypt ac fah sruhu pac.
43 And he will have control over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the costly things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians will follow at his steps.
El ac fah usla pac gold, silver, ac ma saok saya nukewa ma wikinyukla oan in acn Egypt. El ac fah kutangla pac acn Libya ac Ethiopia.
44 But reports out of the east and out of the north will terrify him; and he will go forth with great fury to destroy, and to exterminate many.
Na pweng ma ac tuku liki acn kutulap ac eir uh ac fah aksangengyal, ac el ac mweun arulana upa, ac uniya mwet na pukanten.
45 And he will pitch the tents of his palace between seas and the glorious holy mountain; and he will come to his end, without one to help him.
El ac fah tulokunak pac lohm nuknuk na lulap lal inmasrlon meoa ac eol soko ma Tempul uh oan we. Tusruktu el ac misa, ac wangin mwet ac muta yorol in kasrel.”
