Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a thing is revealed to Daniel, whose name is called Belteshazzar, and the thing [is] true, and the warfare [is] great: and he has understood the thing, and has understanding about the appearance.
Mu mwaka ogwokusatu ogw’obufuzi bwa Kuulo kabaka w’e Buperusi, Danyeri eyayitibwanga Berutesazza n’afuna okwolesebwa okulala. Ekigambo kye yafuna kyali kya mazima nga kyogera ku lutalo olw’amaanyi. N’ategeera obubaka obwamuweebwa mu kwolesebwa okwo.
2 “In those days, I, Daniel, have been mourning three weeks of days;
Mu biro ebyo, nze Danyeri ne mmala wiiki ssatu nga nkungubaga.
3 I have not eaten desirable bread, and no flesh and wine came into my mouth, and I have not anointed myself at all, until the completion of three weeks of days.
Saalya ku mmere ennungi, newaakubadde ennyama wadde okunywa ku wayini; era ne nsiwuukira ddala okumala wiiki ssatu.
4 And in the twenty-fourth day of the first month, I have been by the side of the great river, that [is] Hiddekel:
Ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu ennya olw’omwezi ogw’olubereberye nga nyimiridde ku mabbali g’omugga omunene Tigiriisi,
5 and I lift up my eyes, and look, and behold, a certain one clothed in linen, and his loins girt with pure gold of Uphaz,
ne nnyimusa amaaso gange, ne ntunula waggulu, ne ndaba omusajja ayambadde linena, nga yeesibye olukoba olwa zaabu ennongooseemu mu kiwato.
6 and his body as a beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet as the aspect of bright bronze, and the voice of his words as the voice of a multitude.
Omubiri gwe gwali gumasamasa ng’ejjinja erya berulo, n’ekyenyi kye nga kiri ng’okumyansa okw’eggulu, n’amaaso ge nga gali ng’ettabaaza ez’omuliro, n’emikono gye n’amagulu ge nga biri ng’ebbala ly’ekikomo ekizigule, n’eddoboozi lye ng’oluyoogaano olw’ekibiina ekinene.
7 And I, Daniel, have seen the vision by myself, and the men who have been with me have not seen the vision, but a great trembling has fallen on them, and they flee to be hidden;
Nze Danyeri nzekka, nze nalaba okwolesebwa okwo, abasajja be nnali nabo tebaakulaba, wabula bajjula entiisa, ne badduka ne beekweka.
8 and I have been left by myself, and I see this great vision, and there has been no power left in me, and my splendor has been turned in me to corruption, indeed, I have not retained power.
Ne nsigala nzekka, nga neewuunya okwolesebwa okunene okwo; ne nzigwamu amaanyi; amaaso gange ne gayongobera, ne mba, nga seesobola.
9 And I hear the voice of his words, and when I hear the voice of his words, then I have been in a trance on my face, and my face [is] to the earth;
Awo ne mpulira ng’ayogera, era bwe nnali nga nkyamuwuliriza, ne neebaka otulo tungi nnyo, amaaso gange nga gatunudde wansi ku ttaka.
10 and behold, a hand has come against me, and shakes me on my knees and the palms of my hands.
Ne wabaawo omukono ogunkwatako, emikono gyange n’amaviivi gange ne bitanula okujugumira.
11 And he says to me: Daniel, man greatly desired, attend to the words that I am speaking to you, and stand on your station, for now I have been sent to you. And when he speaks with me this word, I have stood trembling.
N’aŋŋamba nti, “Danyeri, ggwe omusajja omwagalwa ennyo, tegeera era osseeyo omwoyo ku bigambo bye njogera naawe, era yimuka oyimirire kubanga ntumiddwa gy’oli.” Awo bwe yayogera ebigambo ebyo gye ndi ne nnyimirira nga nkankana.
12 And he says to me: Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you gave your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words have been heard, and I have come because of your words.
N’alyoka aŋŋamba nti, “Totya Danyeri, kubanga okuva ku lunaku olwasooka lwe wamalirira okutegeera ne weetoowaza mu maaso ga Katonda wo, ebigambo byo byawulirwa, era nzize olw’ebigambo byo.
13 And the head of the kingdom of Persia is standing in opposition in front of me [for] twenty-one days, and behold, Michael, first of the chief heads, has come to help me, and I have remained there near the kings of Persia;
Namala ennaku amakumi abiri mu lumu nga nkyalwana n’omulangira w’e Buperusi, naye Mikayiri omu ku balangira abakulu n’ajja n’annyamba, kubanga kabaka w’e Buperusi yali ankwatidde eyo.
14 and I have come to cause you to understand that which happens to your people in the latter end of the days, for yet the vision [is] after days.
Kaakano nzize okukunnyonnyola ebigenda okutuuka ku bantu bo mu biro eby’omu maaso; kubanga bye wayolesebwa byogera ku biro ebigenda okujja.”
15 And when he speaks with me about these things, I have set my face toward the earth, and have been silent;
Awo bwe yali ng’akyambuulira ebyo, ne nkutama, ne ntunuza amaaso gange wansi, ne nsirika.
16 and behold, as the manner of the sons of men, he is striking against my lips, and I open my mouth, and I speak, and say to him who is standing in opposition in front of me: My lord, by the vision my pangs have been turned against me, and I have retained no power.
Awo ne wajja eyafaanana ng’omuntu n’akoma ku mimwa gyange, ne ntanula okwogera. Ne ŋŋamba eyali annyimiridde mu maaso nti, “Mukama wange nzijjudde obuyinike, era n’amaanyi sirina olw’ebyo bye njolesebbwa.
17 And how is the servant of this my lord able to speak with this my lord? As for me, from now on there remains in me no power, indeed, breath has not been left in me.
Nnyinza ntya nze omuddu wo okwogera naawe ggwe mukama wange? Amaanyi gampweddemu, sikyayinza na kussa bulungi mukka.”
18 And he adds, and strikes against me, as the appearance of a man, and strengthens me,
Nate eyafaanana ng’omuntu n’ankomako n’anzizaamu amaanyi.
19 and he says: Do not fear, O man greatly desired, peace to you, be strong, indeed, be strong; and when he speaks with me, I have strengthened myself, and I say, Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.
N’aŋŋamba nti, “Ggwe omwagalwa ennyo, totya. Emirembe gibeere gy’oli, guma omwoyo era beera n’obuvumu.” Awo bwe yayogera nange, ne nziramu amaanyi, ne njogera nti, “Yogera mukama wange, kubanga onzizizzaamu amaanyi.”
20 And he says, Have you known why I have come to you? And now I return to fight with the head of Persia; indeed, I am going forth, and behold, the head of Javan has come;
N’alyoka ayogera nti, “Ekindeese gy’oli okimanyi? Mu bbanga eritali ly’ewala, nzija kuddayo okulwanyisa omulangira ow’e Buperusi, era bwe ndimuwangula, omulangira ow’e Buyonaani alijja.
21 but I declare to you that which is noted down in the Writing of Truth, and there is not one strengthening himself with me, concerning these, except Michael your head.”
Naye okusooka byonna, ka nkutegeeze ebyawandiikibwa ebiri mu kitabo eky’amazima: Tewali n’omu ambeera okuggyako Mikayiri, omulangira wammwe abakuuma.
