< 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.
Ní ọdún kẹta Kirusi ọba Persia, a fi ìran kan hàn Daniẹli (ẹni tí à ń pè ní Belteṣassari). Òtítọ́ ni ọ̀rọ̀ ìran náà, ó sì ní í ṣe pẹ̀lú àsìkò ìpọ́njú ńlá, òye ọ̀rọ̀ náà wá bá a nínú ìran.
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning for three whole weeks.
Ní àsìkò náà, èmi Daniẹli ṣọ̀fọ̀ fún ọ̀sẹ̀ mẹ́ta.
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.
Èmi kì í jẹ oúnjẹ tí ó dára, èmi kò fi ẹran tàbí wáìnì kan ẹnu mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kò fi òróró para títí ọ̀sẹ̀ mẹ́ta fi kọjá.
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,
Ní ọjọ́ kẹrìnlélógún oṣù àkọ́kọ́, bí mo ti dúró sí etí i bèbè odò ńlá Tigirisi,
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.
mo wo òkè, mo rí ọkùnrin kan tí ó wọ aṣọ àlà, ẹ̀gbẹ́ ẹni tí a fi wúrà Upasi dáradára dì ní àmùrè.
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.
Ara rẹ̀ dàbí berili, ojú u rẹ̀ dàbí mọ̀nàmọ́ná, ẹyin ojú u rẹ̀ dàbí iná àtẹ̀tàn, apá àti ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ dàbí ìtànná ìmọ́lẹ̀ tí o kún fún idẹ, àti ohùn rẹ̀ dàbí i ti ìjọ ènìyàn púpọ̀.
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.
Èmi Daniẹli, ni ẹnìkan tí ó rí ìran náà, àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wà pẹ̀lú u mi, wọn kò rí i, ṣùgbọ́n ìpayà ńlá dà bò wọ́n, wọ́n sálọ wọ́n sì fi ara pamọ́.
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.
Ó sì ku èmi nìkan, tí mo rí ìran ńlá yìí, kò sì ku okun kankan fún mi, ojú u mi sì rẹ̀wẹ̀sì gidigidi, n kò sì ní agbára mọ́.
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.
Nígbà náà, ni mo gbọ́ tí ó ń sọ̀rọ̀, bí mo ṣe tẹ́tí sílẹ̀ sí i, mo sùn lọ fọnfọn, ní ìdojúbolẹ̀.
10 Look, a hand touched me, which set me on my knees and on the palms of my hands.
Ọwọ́ kan kàn mí, ó gbé mi dìde ní ìwárìrì lórí ọwọ́ àti eékún mi.
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.
Ó sọ pé, “Daniẹli ẹni tí a yàn fẹ́ gidigidi gba ọ̀rọ̀ tí mo fẹ́ bá ọ sọ yìí yẹ̀ wò dáradára, kí o sì dìde, nítorí tí a rán mi sí ọ.” Bí ó ṣe sọ èyí fún mi, mo dìde ní ìwárìrì.
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.
Nígbà náà ni ó tẹ̀síwájú, pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù Daniẹli. Láti ọjọ́ àkọ́kọ́ tí ìwọ ti fi ọkàn rẹ sílẹ̀ níwájú Ọlọ́run rẹ, a gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ, mo sì wá nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ náà.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọmọ-aládé ìjọba Persia dá mi dúró fún ọjọ́ mọ́kànlélógún. Nígbà náà ni Mikaeli, ọ̀kan lára ìjòyè àwọn ọmọ-aládé, wá láti ràn mi lọ́wọ́, nítorí a dá mi dúró níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọba Persia.
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."
Ní ìsinsin yìí mo wá láti ṣàlàyé ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ sí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ ní ọjọ́ iwájú, nítorí ìran náà ń sọ nípa ọjọ́ iwájú.”
15 And when he had spoken to me according to these words, I turned my face toward the ground, and could not speak.
Bí ó sì ti ń sọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún mi, mo sì dorí kodò mo sì dákẹ́.
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.
Nígbà náà, ni ẹnìkan tí ó rí bí ènìyàn fi ọwọ́ kan ètè mi, mo la ẹnu mi, mo sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọ ọ̀rọ̀, mo sọ fún ẹni tí ó dúró níwájú mi, “Ìrònú sì mú mi, nítorí ìran náà, olúwa mi, n kò sì ní okun.
17 For how can this servant of my lord talk with my lord? As for me, no strength remains, and I am breathless."
Ǹjẹ́ báwo ni èmi ìránṣẹ́ ẹ̀ rẹ ṣe lè bá ọ sọ̀rọ̀, olúwa mi? Agbára mi ti lọ, agbára káká ni mo fi ń mí.”
18 Then one like the appearance of a man touched me again and strengthened me.
Ẹ̀wẹ̀, ẹnìkan tí ó rí bí ènìyàn fi ọwọ́ kàn mí, ó sì fún mi ní agbára.
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."
Ó sì wí pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù, ìwọ ọkùnrin olùfẹ́ gidigidi. Àlàáfíà ni fún ọ, mú ara le, àní mú ara le.” Nígbà tí ohun bá mi sọ̀rọ̀, a sì mú mi lára le. “Mo sì wí pé, kí olúwa mi kí ó máa sọ̀rọ̀, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ìwọ ti mú mi ní ara le.”
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.
Nígbà náà, ni ó wí pé, “Ṣé o mọ ìdí tí mo fi tọ̀ ọ́ wá? Láìpẹ́ èmi yóò yípadà lọ bá àwọn ọmọ-aládé Persia jà, nígbà tí mo bá lọ àwọn ọmọ-aládé Giriki yóò wá;
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."
ṣùgbọ́n ní àkọ́kọ́, èmi yóò sọ ohun tí wọ́n kọ sínú ìwé òtítọ́ fún ọ. (Kò sí ẹni tí ó kún mi lọ́wọ́ fún nǹkan wọ̀nyí bí kò ṣe Mikaeli, ọmọ-aládé e yín.
