Daniel 7
1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel has seen a dream, and the visions of his head on his bed, then he has written the dream, the chief of the things he has said.
Nan premye ane Belschatsar, wa Babylone nan, Daniel te fè yon rèv ak vizyon nan panse li, sou kabann li. Epi li te ekri rèv la e te rakonte bagay prensipal yo.
2 Daniel has answered and said, “I was seeing in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of the heavens are coming forth to the Great Sea;
Daniel te di: “Mwen t ap gade nan vizyon mwen pandan nwit lan; epi vwala kat van syèl yo t ap boulvèse gwo lanmè a.
3 and four great beasts are coming up from the sea, diverse from one another.
Epi kat gran bèt t ap monte soti nan lanmè a, youn pa t sanble lòt.
4 The first [is] like a lion, and it has an eagle’s wings. I was seeing until its wings have been plucked, and it has been lifted up from the earth, and on feet as a man it has been caused to stand, and a heart of man is given to it.
“Premye a te tankou yon lyon e li te gen zèl a èg. Mwen te gade jiskaske plim li yo te vin rache, epi li te leve kite tè a, pou l te fèt vin kanpe sou de pye kon yon moun. Anplis, li te resevwa kè a yon moun.
5 And behold, another beast, a second, like to a bear, and to the same authority it has been raised, and three ribs [are] in its mouth, between its teeth, and thus they are saying to it, Rise, consume much flesh.
“Konsa, vwala, yon lòt bèt, yon dezyèm, ki te sanble ak yon lous. Li te vin leve nan yon bò e twa zo kòt te nan bouch li nan dan li. Konsa, yo te di a li: ‘Leve, devore anpil vyann!’
6 After this I was seeing, and behold, another like a leopard, and it has four wings of a bird on its back, and the beast has four heads, and dominion is given to it.
“Apre sa, mwen te kontinye gade e vwala, yon lòt tankou yon leyopa, ki te gen sou do li kat zèl a yon zwazo. Bèt sa, anplis, te gen kat tèt, e dominasyon te vin bay a li menm.
7 After this I was seeing in the visions of the night, and behold, a fourth beast, terrible and fearful, and exceedingly strong; and it has very great iron teeth, it has consumed, indeed, it breaks small, and it has trampled the remnant with its feet; and it [is] diverse from all the beasts that [are] before it; and it has ten horns.
“Apre sa, mwen te kontinye gade nan vizyon nwit lan e vwala, yon katriyèm bèt, byen tèrib, pwisan e fò depase. Li te gen gwo dan fèt an fè. Li te devore, kraze e foule tout sa ki te rete anba pye li. Li te diferan de tout lòt bèt ki te parèt avan li yo. Li te gen dis kòn.
8 I was considering about the horns, and behold, another horn, a little one, has come up between them, and three of the first horns have been eradicated from before it, and behold, eyes as the eyes of man [are] in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things.
“Pandan mwen t ap reflechi sou kòn yo, vwala yon lòt kòn, yon ti piti, te vin leve pami yo, e twa nan premye kòn yo te rache pa rasin yo. Epi vwala, kòn sila a te gen zye tankou zye a moun, e yon bouch ki te eksprime anpil bagay ak gwo awogans.
9 I was seeing until thrones have been thrown down, and the Ancient of Days is seated, His garment [is] white as snow, and the hair of His head [is] as pure wool, His throne flames of fire, its wheels burning fire.
“Mwen te kontinye gade jiskaske twòn yo te vin plase. Epi youn ki te Ansyen de Jou Yo te chita. Abiman Li te tankou lanèj blan, e cheve nan tèt Li te tankou lenn san tach. Twòn Li te briyan akoz flanm yo, e wou li yo te yon dife ki t ap brile.
10 A flood of fire is proceeding and coming forth from before Him, one million serve Him and one hundred million rise up before Him, judgment has been set, and the scrolls have been opened.
Yon rivyè dife t ap koule pou l vin parèt devan L; Milye dè milye t ap okipe L. Di-mil fwa di-mil te kanpe devan L. Jijman an te etabli. Liv yo te vin ouvri.
11 I was seeing, then, because of the voice of the great words that the horn is speaking, I was seeing until the beast is slain, and his body has been destroyed, and given to the burning fire;
“Alò, mwen te kontinye gade, akoz son a pawòl awogan ke kòn nan t ap pale yo. Mwen te kontinye gade jiskaske bèt la te vin touye, kò l te detwi, e li te vin bay a dife ki t ap brile a.
12 and the rest of the beasts have caused their dominion to pass away, and a prolongation in life is given to them, until a season and a time.
Pou tout lòt bèt yo, dominasyon yo te vin retire, men yo te resevwa yon pwolongasyon lavi pandan yon sezon ak pandan yon tan.
13 I was seeing in the visions of the night, and behold, [One] like a Son of Man was coming with the clouds of the heavens, and to the Ancient of Days He has come, and before Him they have brought Him near.
“Mwen te kontinye gade nan vizyon nwit lan, epi vwala, la te vini ak nwaj syèl yo, yon moun tankou yon Fis a Lòm t ap vini; epi Li te vin parèt devan Ansyen A Jou Yo e te fè l vin prè.
14 And to Him is given dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, and all peoples, nations, and languages serve Him, His dominion [is] a continuous dominion, that does not pass away, and His kingdom that which is not destroyed.
A li menm, Li te bay dominasyon, glwa a, ak yon wayòm, pou tout pèp, nasyon ak lang yo ta ka sèvi Li. Dominasyon Li an se yon dominasyon k ap dire jis pou tout tan, ki p ap janm fini. Epi wayòm Li an se yon wayòm ki p ap detwi.
15 My spirit has been pierced—I, Daniel—in the midst of the sheath, and the visions of my head trouble me;
“Pou mwen menm, Daniel, lespri mwen te twouble anndan mwen, e vizyon nan panse m yo te kontinye ban m gwo laperèz.
16 I have drawn near to one of those standing, and the certainty I seek from him of all this; and he has spoken to me, indeed, the interpretation of the things he has caused me to know:
Mwen te pwoche youn nan sila ki te kanpe akote yo, e te kòmanse mande li kisa tout sa te vle di. “Konsa, li te eksplike mwen e te fè m konnen byen dirèk entèpretasyon a tout bagay sa yo.
17 These great beasts, that [are] four, [are] four kings, they rise up from the earth;
‘Gwo bèt sila yo, ki se kat yo, se kat wa ki va leve soti nan tè a.
18 and the saints of the Most High receive the kingdom, and they strengthen the kingdom for all time, even for all time and all ages.
Men sen yo a Sila Ki Pi Wo a, va resevwa wayòm nan, e va posede wayòm nan jis pou tout tan, pou tout laj ki gen pou vini yo.’
19 Then I wished for certainty concerning the fourth beast, that was diverse from them all, exceedingly fearful; its teeth of iron, and its nails of bronze, it has devoured, it breaks small, and it has trampled the remnant with its feet;
“Epi mwen te dezire konnen kisa Katriyèm bèt la te sinyifi, ki pa t menm jan ak lòt bèt yo, te vrèman tèrib, ak dan li an fè, e grif li an bwonz, ki te devore, kraze e foule rès la anba pye li;
20 and concerning the ten horns that [are] in its heads, and of the other that came up, and before which three have fallen, even of that horn that has eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and whose appearance [is] great above its companions.
epi kisa dis kòn sou tèt li yo ak lòt kòn ki te vin leve a te sinyifi, e devan sila twa nan yo te tonbe a, menm kòn ki te gen zye ak bouch ki te pi djanam nan aparans ke parèy li yo.
21 I was seeing, and this horn is making war with the saints, and has prevailed over them,
Mwen te kontinye gade; kòn sa a t ap fè lagè ak fidèl yo, e te enpoze li sou yo.
22 until the Ancient of Days has come, and judgment is given to the saints of the Most High, and the time has come, and the saints have strengthened the kingdom.
Jiskaske Ansyen A Jou Yo te vini, epi jijman an te fèt nan favè a sen a Sila Ki Pi Wo a e lè a te rive pou sen yo te pran posesyon a wayòm nan.
23 Thus he said: The fourth beast is the fourth kingdom in the earth, that is diverse from all kingdoms, and it consumes all the earth, and treads it down, and breaks it small.
“Konsa, li te di: ‘Katriyèm bèt la va yon katriyèm wayòm sou latè, ki va apa de tout lòt wayòm yo. Li va devore tout latè, mache sou li e kraze li an mòso.
24 And the ten horns out of the kingdom [are] ten kings, they rise, and another rises after them, and it is diverse from the former, and it humbles three kings;
E pou dis kòn yo, sòti nan wayòm sa a, dis wa va leve. Konsa, yon lòt va leve apre yo, li p ap menm jan ak lòt ki te avan yo, e li va kraze twa wa yo.
25 and it speaks words as an adversary of the Most High, and it wears out the saints of the Most High, and it hopes to change seasons and law; and they are given into its hand, until a time, and times, and a division of a time.
Li va pale kont Pi Wo a, li va epwize sen a Sila Ki Pi Wo a, epi li va gen entansyon pou fè chanjman nan tan ak lwa yo. Yo va vin livre nan men li pandan yon tan ak tan yo, ak yon mwatye tan.
26 And judgment is set, and they cause his dominion to pass away, to perish, and to be destroyed—to the end;
“‘Men jijman an va etabli. Dominasyon li an va rache, anile e detwi jis pou tout tan.
27 and the kingdom, and the dominion, even the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heavens, is given to the people—the saints of the Most High, His kingdom [is] a continuous kingdom, and all dominions serve and obey Him.
Epi wayòm a dominasyon an, ak grandè a tout wayòm yo anba tout syèl la va vin livre a pèp a sen a Pi Wo yo. Wayòm Li an, yon wayòm k ap dire jis pou tout tan e tout dominasyon yo va sèvi e obeyi Li.’
28 Here [is] the end of the matter. I, Daniel, [am] greatly troubled [by] my thoughts, and my countenance is changed on me, and I have kept the matter in my heart.”
“Se konsa bagay la te fini. Pou mwen menm, Daniel, refleksyon mwen yo te twouble m anpil anpil, e figi m te vin pal; men mwen te kenbe bagay la nan kè m.”
