< Daniel 11 >
1 “And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, my standing [is] for a strengthener, and for a stronghold to him;
Kai khaw Mede Darius kah a kum khat dongah tah anih taengah lunghim la om ham neh moem hamla kai m'pai sak.
2 and now, I declare to you truth: Behold, yet three kings are standing for Persia, and the fourth becomes far richer than all, and according to his strength by his riches he stirs up the whole, with the kingdom of Javan.
Te dongah nang taengah oltak kan thui coeng. Persia ah manghai pathum phoe pueng vetih a pali tah anmih boeih lakah a len la khuehtawn neh boei ni ne. Te vaengah a thadueng neh a khuehtawn loh Javan ram pum te a haeng ni.
3 And a mighty king has stood, and he has ruled a great dominion, and has done according to his will;
Manghai hlangrhalh a pai vaengah ukkung boeiping la a taemrhai vetih a kolonah bangla a saii ni.
4 and according to his standing is his kingdom broken, and divided to the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion that he ruled, for his kingdom is plucked up—and for others apart from these.
Anih a pai neh a ram te rhek vetih vaan khohli pali taengla a haeh ni. A hmailong te khui pawt vetih a taemrhai ham tluk mahpawh. A ram te a phong pah vetih te rhoek bal lakah a tloe taengla a paek ni.
5 And a king of the south—even of his princes—becomes strong, and prevails against him, and has ruled; a great dominion [is] his dominion.
Tuithim manghai khaw moem uh suidae a mangpa rhoek lamlong khaw anih lakah moem uh vetih a khohung te ukkung boeiping loh a taemrhai ni.
6 And at the end of years they join themselves together, and a daughter of the king of the south comes to the king of the north to do upright things; and she does not retain the power of the arm; and he does not stand, nor his arm; and she is given up, she, and those bringing her in, and her child, and he who is strengthening her in [these] times.
Kum a thoknah dongah tah patai uh thae vetih tuithim manghai canu rhoek loh vanat la saii hamla tlangpuei manghai te a paan ni. Tedae a ban thaa ueh pawt vetih cak mahpawh. A ban khaw a puei taengah a paek vetih anih aka sa neh anih aka moem rhoek khaw hnin at dongah hma ni.
7 And [one] has stood up from a branch of her roots, [in] his station, and he comes to the bulwark, indeed, he comes into a stronghold of the king of the north, and has worked against them, and has done mightily;
A kho ah a yung a pae te cawn vetih tatthai te a paan ni. Tlangpuei manghai kah lunghim khuila kun vetih amih a saii nen te moem uh ni.
8 and also their gods, with their princes, with their desirable vessels of silver and gold, he brings in captivity [to] Egypt; and he stands more years than the king of the north.
Amih kah pathen rhoek khaw, a boeimang neh, a sahnaih hnopai neh, cak neh sui khaw Egypt loh tamna la a khuen ni. Te daengah ni anih te kum a yet tlangpuei manghai taengah a pai eh.
9 And the king of the south has come into the kingdom, and turned back to his own land;
Te phoeiah tuithim manghai kah ram te a muk suidae amah kho la mael ni.
10 and his sons stir themselves up, and have gathered a multitude of great forces, and he has certainly come in, and overflowed, and passed through, and he turns back, and they stir themselves up to his stronghold.
A ca rhoek neh a ca rhoek tah huek uh tih tatthai hlangping la muep tingtun uh ni. Te vaengah pakhat te kun rhoe kun vetih a yo phoeiah a poeng ni. A mael vaengah khaw huek uh vetih a lunghim, a lunghim duela huek uh ni.
11 And the king of the south becomes embittered, and has gone forth and fought with him, with the king of the north, and has caused a great multitude to stand, and the multitude has been given into his hand,
Tuithim manghai te pae vetih a paan ni. Anih taengah tlangpuei manghai neh a vathoh vetih hlangping neh muep a pai thil ni. Tedae hlangping te anih kut ah ni a paek eh.
12 and he has carried away the multitude, his heart is high, and he has caused myriads to fall, and he does not become strong.
Hlangping a khuen vaengah a thinko te a pomsang la a pomsang ni. Tedae thawngrha a cungku sak akhaw tanglue mahpawh.
13 And the king of the north has turned back, and has caused a multitude to stand, greater than the first, and at the end of the times a second time he certainly comes in with a great force, and with much substance;
Tlangpuei manghai te mael vetih lamhma kah pilnu hlangping la pai ni. Kum tue a bawtnah dongah tah tatthai pilnu neh, khuehtawn boeiping neh pai rhoe pai ni.
14 and in those times many stand up against the king of the south, and sons of the destroyers of your people lift themselves up to establish the vision—and they have stumbled.
Te vaeng tue ah tuithim manghai te muep a pai thil uh vetih mangthui phoe sak hamla na pilnam kah dingca ca a phueih suidae paloe uh ni.
15 And the king of the north comes in, and pours out a mound, and has captured fortified cities; and the arms of the south do not stand, nor the people of his choice, indeed, there is no power to stand.
Te phoeiah tlangpuei manghai ha pai vetih tanglung a lun ni. Te vaengah hmuencak khopuei te a loh vetih tuithim kah ban loh oel mahpawh. A pilnam hlangrhoei rhoek pataeng khaw a pai hamla thadueng tal ni.
16 And he who is coming to him does according to his will, and there is none standing before him; and he stands in the desirable land, and [it is] wholly in his hand.
Anih taengla aka pha te a kolonah bangla a saii vetih a mikhmuh ah pai uh mahpawh. Kirhang khohmuen te a thoh vetih amah kut khuiah a tlak sak ni.
17 And he sets his face to go in with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; and he has worked, and the daughter of women he gives to him, to corrupt her; and she does not stand, nor is for him.
A ram pum kah saithainah neh kun hamla a mikhmuh ah a tawn ni. A taengah a thuem la a saii vetih a canu a yuu la a paek ni. Te te phae cakhaw coeng hae pawt vetih a taengah om hae mahpawh.
18 And he turns back his face to the islands, and has captured many; and a prince has caused his reproach of himself to cease; without his reproach he turns [it] back to him.
Te phoeiah mael vetih sanglak la a maelhmai a khueh ni. Te vaengah muep a loh akhaw a kokhahnah rhalboei khaw amah la kangkuen vetih a kokhahnah loh om kolla amah taengla mael ni.
19 And he turns back his face to the strongholds of his land, and has stumbled and fallen, and is not found.
Te vaengah a maelhmai te a khohmuen kah lunghim taengla la mael ni. Tedae paloe vetih a cungku phoeiah phoe voel mahpawh.
20 And stood up on his station has [one] causing an exactor to pass over the honor of the kingdom, and in a few days he is destroyed, and not in anger, nor in battle.
Anih hmuen kah aka pai loh ram kah boeilennah soah laisuk a paan sak ni. Tedae khohnin pakhat dongah bawt vetih thintoek neh om kolla caemtloek khuiah khaw om mahpawh.
21 And a despicable one has stood up on his station, and they have not given to him the splendor of the kingdom, and he has come in quietly, and has strengthened the kingdom by flatteries.
Anih yueng la aka pai khaw a hnaep uh vetih a taengah ram kah mueithennah te pae uh mahpawh. Tedae ommongnah khuila a pha vaengah ram te longtlang longah a moem ni.
22 And the arms of the flood are overflowed from before him, and are broken; and also the leader of the covenant.
Lungpook bantha khaw a mikhmuh dong lamloh khoe uh vetih paipi rhaengsang bal khaw bawt ni.
23 And after they join themselves to him, he works deceit, and has increased, and has been strong by a few of the nation.
Tedae anih neh a patai lamlong tah hlangthai palat la om vetih pongpa ni. Te vaengah namtom hlangsi neh rhoeng ni.
24 Peaceably even into the fertile places of the province He comes, and he has done that which his fathers did not, nor his fathers’ fathers; prey, and spoil, and substance, he scatters to them, and against fortifications he devises his plans, even for a time.
Ommongnah neh paeng ah thaomthathueng la kun vetih a napa neh a napa kah a napa rhoek loh a saii uh noek pawt te a saii ni. Kutbuem neh hnorhawt khaw amih ham khuehtawn la a haeh ni. A tuetang bangla a kopoek neh hmuencak te a moeh ni.
25 And he stirs up his power and his heart against the king of the south with a great force, and the king of the south stirs himself up to battle with a very great and mighty force, and does not stand, for they devise plans against him,
Tuithim manghai neh tatthai pilnu taengah a thadueng neh a thinko te a haeng ni. Tuithim manghai khaw caemtloek khuiah tatthai neh muep huek uh vetih pilnu khungdaeng ni. Tedae anih te kopoek neh a moeh uh dongah pai thai mahpawh.
26 and those eating his portion of food destroy him, and his force overflows, and many wounded have fallen.
A buh aka ca rhoek long pataeng amah te a bawt uh vetih amah caem rhoek te a muelh vaengah rhok la muep cungku uh ni.
27 And both of the kings’ hearts [are] to do evil, and at one table they speak lies, and it does not prosper, for yet the end [is] at a time appointed.
Amih manghai rhoi tah a thinko ah boethae neh caboei pakhat dongah laithae a thui rhoi dae thaihtak mahpawh. A khoning vaengah a bawtnah koep om ni.
28 And he turns back [to] his land with great substance, and his heart [is] against the holy covenant, and he has worked, and turned back to his land.
Khuehtawn neh amah kho la muep mael sitoe cakhaw a thinko ah cimcaihnah paipi a poe nen ni amah kho la a mael eh.
29 At the appointed time he turns back, and has come against the south, and it is not as the former, and as the latter.
A khoning vaengah tah mael vetih tuithim la cet ni. Tedae lamhma kah bangla lamhnuk ah om mahpawh.
30 And ships of Chittim have come in against him, and he has been pained, and has turned back, and has been insolent toward the holy covenant, and has worked, and turned back, and he understands concerning those forsaking the holy covenant.
Anih te Kittim timbaw a paan vaengah pae vetih mael ni. Cimcaihnah paipi te kosi a hong vetih a rhoi ni. A mael vaengah cimcaihnah paipi aka hnoo te a yakming ni.
31 And strong ones stand up out of him, and have defiled the sanctuary, the stronghold, and have turned aside the continual [sacrifice], and appointed the desolating abomination.
Amah kah a bantha khaw pai uh vetih lunghim rhokso a poeih uh ni. Sainoek te a phaelh uh vetih aka pong rhoek kah sarhingkoi a khueh uh ni.
32 And those acting wickedly [against] the covenant, he defiles by flatteries; and the people knowing their God are strong, and have worked.
Paipi aka boe sak rhoek khaw hoemdawk loh a poeih ni. Tedae a Pathen aka ming pilnam tah a moem uh vetih a rhoi uh ni.
33 And the teachers of the people give understanding to many; and they have stumbled by sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil—days.
Pilnam aka cangbam rhoek tah tumca dongah, hmaisai neh, tamna neh, kutbuem tue neh paloe uh cakhaw a yet taengah a yakming sak ni.
34 And in their stumbling, they are helped—a little help, and joined to them have been many with flatteries.
A paloe uh ham vaengah khaw bomkung loh bet a bom uh vetih amih taengah olhnal rhoek muep naep uh ni.
35 And some of the teachers stumble for refining by them, and for purifying, and for making white—until the end of the time, for [it is] yet for a time appointed.
Lungming khui lamkah khaw paloe uh suidae, amih te picai ham neh coelh ham, a bawtnah tue hil koep tingtunnah dongah a khueh ham dongah ni.
36 And the king has done according to his will, and exalts himself, and magnifies himself against every god, and he speaks wonderful things against the God of gods, and has prospered until the indignation has been completed, for that which is determined has been done.
Manghai loh a kolonah bangla a saii ni. Amah pomsang uh vetih pathen boeih lakah pantai ni. Pathen rhoek kah Pathen taengah khobaerhambae la cal ni. Tedae a oltloek a saii coeng dongah kosi a bawt duela thaihtak ni.
37 And to the God of his fathers he does not attend, nor to the desire of women, indeed, he does not attend to any god, for he magnifies himself against all.
A napa rhoek kah pathen te yakming pawt vetih huta sahnaih te khaw, pathen cungkuem te khaw yakming mahpawh. Tedae a cungkuem soah pomsang uh ni.
38 And to the god of strongholds, on his station, he gives honor; indeed, to a god whom his fathers did not know he gives honor, with gold, and with silver, and with precious stone, and with desirable things.
Te yueng la lunghim pathen te a thangpom ni. A napa rhoek loh a ming uh mueh pathen te sui neh, cak neh, lung vang neh, hlangthen neh a thangpom ni.
39 And he has dealt in the fortresses of the strongholds with a strange god whom he has acknowledged; he multiplies honor, and has caused them to rule over many, and the ground he apportions at a price.
Kholong pathen neh lunghim hmuencak te a saii ni. Te te aka hmat, aka hmat tah thangpomnah a yet sak ni. Amih te a yet soah a taemrhai vetih khohmuen te a phu la a tael pah ni.
40 And at the time of the end, a king of the south pushes himself forward with him, and a king of the north storms against him, with chariot, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he has come into the lands, and has overflowed, and passed over,
A bawtnah tue ah anih te tuithim manghai loh a thoeh ni. Tlangpuei manghai khaw anih taengah leng neh, marhang caem neh, sangpho neh muep hli ni. Khohmuen la a kun vaengah a muelh doela kat ni.
41 and has come into the desirable land, and many stumble, and these escape from his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the sons of Ammon.
Kirhang khohmuen la a kun vaengah muep paloe uh ni. Tedae Edom, Moab neh Ammon koca kah tanglue rhoek he tah anih kut lamloh loeih uh ni.
42 And he sends forth his hand on the lands, and the land of Egypt is not for an escape;
Khohmuen tom ah a kut a tueih vetih Egypt kho pataeng loeihnah ham om mahpawh.
43 and he has ruled over treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the desirable things of Egypt, and Lubim and Cushim [are] at his steps.
Sui neh cak a thuhnah te a taemrhai ni. Egypt, Lubim neh Kushi kah sanaep boeih te a khokan dongah a khueh ni.
44 And reports trouble him out of the east and out of the north, and he has gone forth in great fury to destroy, and to devote many to destruction;
Tedae khocuk lamkah neh tlangpuei lamkah olthang loh anih a let sak ni. Te vaengah mitmoeng sak ham neh bit thup hamla kosi len neh ha pai ni.
45 and he plants the tents of his palace between the seas and the holy desirable mountain, and has come to his end, and there is no helper to him.”
A tongmang dap te tuili kah laklo cimcaihnah kirhang tlang ah a tuk ni. Tedae a bawtnah te a pha vaengah anih aka bom om mahpawh.
