Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Koresh king of Persia a word was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the word was true: a great war. And he understood the word, and had understanding of the vision.
Persiahene Kores adedi afe a ɛto so abiɛsa mu no, woyii asɛm bi adi kyerɛɛ Daniel (a na wɔfrɛ no Beltesasar). Na nkra no yɛ nokware, na ɛfa ɔko kɛse bi ho. Onyaa nkra no nkyerɛase wɔ anisoadehu mu.
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning for three whole weeks.
Saa bere no, me, Daniel, midii awerɛhow nnaawɔtwe abiɛsa.
3 I had no pleasing food, neither meat nor wine came into my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, until three whole weeks were fulfilled.
Manni aduan pa biara. Nam anaa nsa biara anka mʼano, na mamfa sradehuam ansra kosii nnaawɔtwe abiɛsa no awiei.
4 In the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is the Tigris,
Ɔsram a edi kan no, da a ɛto so aduonu anan, bere a migyina asubɔnten kɛse Tigris konkɔn so no,
5 I lifted up my eyes and looked, and look, a man clothed in linen, around his waist a belt made of pure gold from Uphaz.
memaa mʼani so na mihuu ɔbarima bi a ofura nweratam. Na ɔbɔ sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa abɔso a efi Ufas wɔ nʼasen mu.
6 His body was like beryl, and his face like the appearance of lightning, and his eyes like flaming torches, and his arms and his feet like burnished bronze, and the sound of his words like the sound of a multitude.
Ne nipadua no te sɛ aboɔdemmo. Nʼanim te sɛ anyinam, nʼani te sɛ ogyatɛn a ɛredɛw, ne nsa ne nʼanan te sɛ ayowa a wɔabere ho hyerɛnn, na ne nne nso te sɛ nnipakuw nnyigyei.
7 I, Daniel, alone saw the vision; for the men who were with me did not see the vision; but a great trembling fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves.
Me, Daniel nko ara na minyaa saa anisoadehu no; nnipa a na wɔka me ho no anhu hwee. Ehu kɛse bi bɔɔ wɔn ma wuguan kohintawee.
8 So I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; for my natural appearance grew deathly pale, and I retained no strength.
Enti ɛkaa me nko ara a merehwɛ anisoadehu kɛse yi. Na mʼahoɔden asa, mʼanim hoaee; afei na minni ɔboafo biara.
9 Yet I heard the sound of his words, and when I heard the sound of his words, then I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
Na metee sɛ ɔrekasa; na meretie no no, mefaa mu daa nnahɔɔ a mʼanim butuw fam.
10 Look, a hand touched me, which set me on my knees and on the palms of my hands.
Nsa bi soo me mu, maa me a me nsa ne me kotodwe rewosow biribiribiri no so.
11 He said to me, "Daniel, man greatly loved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright; for I have now been sent to you." And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood trembling.
Ɔkae se, “Daniel, wo a wobu wo yiye, dwene nsɛm a merebɛka akyerɛ wo yi ho. Gyina pintinn, na wɔasoma me wɔ wo nkyɛn.” Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi kyerɛɛ me no, mede ahopopo sɔree.
12 Then he said to me, "Do not be afraid, Daniel; for from the first day that you did set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. And I have come because of your words.
Afei ɔkɔɔ so kae se, “Nsuro, Daniel. Efi da a edi kan a wopɛɛ sɛ wote anisoadehu no ase na wobrɛɛ wo ho ase wɔ wo Nyankopɔn anim no, na ɔtee wo nsɛm, na ɛno nti na maba yi.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; but, look, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was left there with the kings of Persia.
Nanso ɔhene babarima a ofi Persia ahenni mu siw me kwan nnafua aduonu baako. Afei, Mikael a ɔyɛ ahenemma atitiriw no mu baako bɛboaa me, efisɛ na wɔde me asie wɔ Persia hene nkyɛn.
14 Now I have come to make you understand what shall happen to your people in the latter days; for the vision refers to future days."
Mprempren, maba sɛ merebɛkyerɛkyerɛ wo nea ɛbɛba wo nkurɔfo so daakye, efisɛ saa anisoadehu yi fa bere bi a ɛrebɛba ho.”
15 And when he had spoken to me according to these words, I turned my face toward the ground, and could not speak.
Bere a ɔreka eyi akyerɛ me no, mebɔɔ me mu ase, na metɔɔ mum.
16 And look, something like a man's hand touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth and spoke and said to him who stood before me, "My lord, it is because of the vision anguish has come upon me, and I have no strength.
Afei obi a ɔte sɛ onipa de ne saa kaa mʼano, na mibuee mʼano, fii ase kasae. Meka kyerɛɛ nea ogyina mʼanim no se, “Anisoadehu no ama me ho adwiriw me, me wura, na minni ɔboafo biara.
17 For how can this servant of my lord talk with my lord? As for me, no strength remains, and I am breathless."
Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na wʼakoa betumi ne wo akasa, me wura? Mʼahoɔden asa, na mintumi nhome.”
18 Then one like the appearance of a man touched me again and strengthened me.
Nea ɔte sɛ onipa no de ne nsa kaa me bio, na ɔmaa me ahoɔden.
19 And he said, "Greatly loved man, do not be afraid, peace be to you; be strong, be strong." When he spoke to me, I was strengthened, and said, "Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me."
Ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Nsuro, wo a wobu wo bebree. Asomdwoe nka wo. Hyɛ wo ho den. Yɛ den.” Ɔkasa kyerɛɛ me no, minyaa ahoɔden na mekae se, “Sɛ woama me ahoɔden yi, kasa, me wura.”
20 Then he said, "Do you know why I have come to you? Now I will return to fight with the prince of Persia. When I go forth, look, the prince of Greece shall come.
Enti obisae se, “Wunim nea enti a maba wo nkyɛn? Ɛrenkyɛ, mɛsan akɔ na me ne Persia ɔhenebabarima akɔko, na sɛ mekɔ a, Hela ɔhenebabarima bɛba;
21 But I will tell you that which is inscribed in the Book of Truth. And there is no one who contends with me against them except Michael, your prince."
nanso, medi kan aka nea wɔakyerɛw wɔ Nokware Nhoma no mu no akyerɛ wo. (Obiara nni mʼafa a ɔko tia wɔn, gye sɛ Mikael a ɔyɛ wo hene babarima no.
