< Daniel 8 >
1 In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared to me, Daniel, after that which appeared to me previously.
Ķēniņa Belsacara trešā valdīšanas gadā man, Daniēlim, rādījās parādīšana, pēc tās, kas man papriekš bija parādījusies.
2 And I saw in the vision, and when I looked, I was in the citadel of Shushan, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai.
Un es skatījos tai parādīšanā, un notika, ka es skatīdamies biju Sūsanas pilī Elama valstī, un es skatījos tai parādīšanā, un es biju pie Ulaī upes.
3 Then I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns. And the two horns were long, but one was longer than the other, and the longer one came up last.
Un es pacēlu savas acis un skatījos, redzi, auns stāvēja upes malā, tam bija divi ragi, un tie divi ragi bija augsti, un viens bija augstāks nekā otrs, un tas augstākais izcēlās vēlāk.
4 I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; and no animals could stand before him, neither was there any who could deliver out of his hand. But he did according to his will, and became great.
Es redzēju, ka tas auns ar saviem ragiem badīja pret vakariem un pret ziemeļa pusi un pret dienasvidu, un neviens zvērs pret viņu nevarēja pastāvēt, un neviens no viņa rokas neizglābās, bet viņš darīja, kas tam patika un paaugstinājās.
5 As I was considering, look, a male goat came from the west over the surface of the whole earth, and did not touch the ground. And the goat had a prominent horn between his eyes.
Un kamēr es to pārdomāju, redzi, tad āzis nāca no vakariem pār visu zemes virsu un neaizskāra zemi, un tam āzim bija skaists rags starp viņa acīm.
6 He came to the ram that had the two horns, which I saw standing before the river, and rushed at him in the fury of his power.
Un tas nāca pie tā auna ar tiem diviem ragiem, ko es biju redzējis stāvam upes malā, un tas lauzās pret viņu ar stipru karstumu.
7 I saw him come close to the ram, and he was moved with anger against him, and struck the ram, and broke his two horns. And there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he threw him down to the ground and trampled on him, and there was no one who could deliver the ram from his power.
Un es redzēju, ka tas tuvu nāca pie tā auna un pret viņu apskaitās un badīja to aunu un salauza viņa divus ragus, un tam aunam nebija spēka, viņa priekšā pastāvēt, un viņš to nometa zeme un to samina, un neviena nebija, kas to aunu izglābtu no viņa rokas.
8 The male goat became very strong. But when he was strong, the large horn was broken; and instead of it there came up four prominent horns toward the four winds of heaven.
Un tas āzis ļoti paaugstinājās, bet kad tas bija palicis stiprs, tad tas lielais rags salūza, un viņa vietā četri skaisti ragi izauga pret tiem četriem debess vējiem.
9 Out of one of them came forth a little horn, which grew exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beautiful land.
Un no viena no tiem iznāca viens mazs rags, tas tapa ļoti liels pret dienasvidu un pret rītiem un pret to mīlīgo zemi.
10 It grew so great that it reached to the host of heaven, and some of the host and of the stars it cast down to the ground, and trampled on them.
Un tas tapa liels līdz debess pulkam un nometa kādus no tā pulka un no tām zvaigznēm zemē un tos samina.
11 And it magnified itself, even against the Prince of the host; and it took away from him the daily sacrifice, and the place of his sanctuary was thrown down.
Un tas tapa liels līdz debess pulka valdniekam, un šim tapa atņemts tas dienišķais upuris, un viņa svētās vietas dzīvoklis tapa izpostīts.
12 The host was given over to it together with the daily sacrifice because of transgression. And it cast down truth to the ground, and kept prospering.
Un karapulks tika nodots līdz ar dienišķo upuri apgrēkošanās dēļ, un tas (rags) nometa patiesību pie zemes, un ko viņš darīja, tas viņam izdevās.
13 Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who spoke, "How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression that makes desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trampled?"
Un es dzirdēju vienu svētu runājam, un cits svēts sacīja uz to, kas runāja: uz cik ilgu laiku tad zīmējās tā parādīšana par to dienišķo upuri un par to briesmīgo grēku, ka ir tā svētā vieta, ir tas karapulks top nodoti samīšanai?
14 He said to me, "To two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings; then shall the sanctuary be restored to its rightful state."
Un viņš uz mani sacīja: divi tūkstoši un trīssimt dienas būs skaitāmas no vakara līdz rītam, tad tā svētā vieta atkal taps iesvētīta.
15 It came about when I, Daniel, had seen the vision, that I sought to understand it. And look, there stood before me someone who appeared to be a man.
Un kad es, Daniēls, to parādīšanu redzēju, tad es to meklēju saprast, un redzi, tur stāvēja manā priekšā viens, no izskata kā vīrs.
16 I heard a man's voice between the banks of the Ulai, and called out and said, "Gabriel, make this man understand the vision."
Un es dzirdēju starp Ulaī upes (malām) cilvēka balsi, tā sauca un sacīja: Gabriel, izskaidro šim to parādīšanu.
17 So he came near where I stood, and when he came I was frightened, and fell prostrate. But he said to me, "Understand, son of man, that the vision belongs to the time of the end."
Un viņš nāca tuvu, kur es stāvēju; un kad viņš nāca, tad es izbijos un kritu uz savu vaigu; un viņš uz mani sacīja: ņem vērā, cilvēka bērns, jo šī parādīšana iet uz pastara laiku.
18 Now as he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep with my face toward the ground; but he touched me, and stood me upright.
Kad viņš nu ar mani runāja, tad es nokritu pamiris pie zemes, bet viņš mani aizskāra un mani uzcēla stāvu.
19 He said, "Look, I will make you know what shall be in the latter time of wrath, for it belongs to the appointed time of the end.
Un viņš sacīja: redzi, es tev daru zināmu, kas notiks dusmības gala laikā; jo tas iet uz to nolikto laika galu.
20 The ram which you saw, that had the two horns, they are the kings of Media and Persia.
Tas auns ar tiem diviem ragiem, ko tu esi redzējis, tie ir Mēdiešu un Persiešu ķēniņi.
21 The male goat is the king of Greece, and the large horn that is between his eyes is the first king.
Un tas sprogainais āzis ir Grieķu ķēniņš, un tas lielais rags starp viņa acīm, ir tas pirmais ķēniņš.
22 As for that which was broken, in the place where four stood up, four kingdoms shall arise out of his nation, but not with his power.
Un kad tas būs salūzis, tad četri nāks viņa vietā; četras valstis celsies no tās tautas, bet ne ar tādu spēku, kāds viņam bija.
23 In the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressions have reached their full measure, a rash and deceitful king shall arise.
Bet šīs valsts pastara laikā, kad tie atkāpēji augumā būs auguši, celsies nikns un izmanīgs ķēniņš.
24 His power shall be great, but not by his own strength; and he shall cause terrible destruction, and shall succeed in whatever he does. And he shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
Un viņa spēks būs stiprs, bet ne caur paša spēku, un viņš brīnišķi postīs un viņam laimēsies, un viņš to padarīs. Un viņš postīs tos varenos un to svēto tautu.
25 Through his cunning he shall cause deceit to prosper by his influence, and he shall be great in his own mind, and without warning he shall destroy many. He shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be shattered, but not by human hands.
Un caur viņa gudrību viltus viņa rokā tam izdosies, un viņš savā sirdī leposies un nejauši postīs lielu pulku, un celsies pretī tam valdnieku Valdniekam, bet viņš bez rokas taps salauzts.
26 The vision of the evenings and mornings which has been told is true; but seal up the vision because it refers to many days from now."
Un tas parādījums par vakaru un rītu, par ko runāts, ir patiesīgs un tu apslēp šo parādījumu, jo vēl ir ilgs laiks līdz tam.
27 I, Daniel, was overcome, and was ill for days. Then I rose up, and carried out the king's business. And I was astonished by the vision, but there was no one to explain it.
Un es, Daniēls, paliku vājš un biju kādas dienas slims. Tad es cēlos un darīju ķēniņa darbu, un iztrūcinājos par šo parādījumu, bet neviens to nemanīja.
