Daniel 11

1 "And as for me, in the first year of Daryavesh the Mede, I stood up to support and strengthen him.

Na mobu ya liboso ya bokonzi ya Dariusi, moto ya Medi, nazalaki wana mpo na kosunga mpe kobatela ye.

2 And now what I show you is true. Look, there shall arise three more kings in Persia, and the fourth shall be far richer than all of them; and when he has grown strong through his riches, he shall stir up all the kingdom of Greece.

Sik’oyo, nakoloba na yo solo ya likambo: « Bakonzi misato bakobima lisusu mpo na Persi; bongo mokonzi ya minei akobima lisusu, kasi akoleka bakonzi nyonso oyo bayaki liboso na ye na bomengo. Tango bomengo na ye ekopesa ye nguya, akosala ete bato nyonso batombokela Grese.

3 And a powerful king shall arise, who shall rule an extensive empire, and do as he pleases.

Kasi mokonzi moko ya nguya koleka akobima mpe akokamba na nguya nyonso, akosala makambo oyo alingi.

4 When he shall arise, his kingdom shall be broken up, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not to his posterity, nor according to his authority with which he ruled; for his kingdom shall be uprooted, and will go to others besides these.

Sima na kolendisama ya bokonzi na ye, mokili na ye ekobebisama mpe ekopanzana bipai na bipai; bakitani na ye bakozwa lisusu bokonzi te mpe mokili yango ekozala lisusu na nguya te, pamba te bakobotola yango mpe bakokaba yango na bato mosusu.

5 The king of the south shall grow strong, and one of his officers shall grow more powerful, and shall have a greater kingdom than his.

Mokonzi ya sude akokoma makasi koleka, kasi moko ya bakonzi na ye ya basoda akokoma lisusu makasi koleka ye mpe akotambolisa mokili na nguya makasi koleka.

6 At the end of years they shall join themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she shall not retain her power; neither shall his strength endure; but she shall be surrendered, and her attendants, and he who became the father of her, and he who supported her in those times.

Sima na mibu ebele, akosala boyokani elongo na bakonzi mosusu. Mwana mwasi ya mokonzi ya sude akokende kosala boyokani elongo na mokonzi ya nor, kasi akobatela bokonzi na ye te, mpe bakitani na ye bakowumela te. Na mikolo wana, akokufa, ye elongo na bato oyo bamemaki ye na bokonzi, tata na ye mpe mosungi na ye.

7 But out of a shoot from her roots shall arise in his place, who shall come against the army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail.

Moko kati na bakitani na ye akobima mpe akozwa esika na ye; akobundisa mampinga ya mokonzi ya nor mpe akokota kati na engumba na ye, oyo batonga makasi; akobundisa bango mpe akolonga bango.

8 Also their gods, with their molten images, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold, shall he carry captive into Egypt; and he shall withdraw for some years from the king of the north.

Akozwa banzambe na bango ya bikeko, bikeko na bango oyo basala na bibende, biloko na bango ya motuya oyo basala na wolo mpe na palata mpe akomema yango na Ejipito. Akozala mosika ya mokonzi ya nor na mwa mibu.

9 And he shall come into the realm of the king of the south, but he shall return into his own land.

Mokonzi ya nor akokota na makasi kati na mokili ya mokonzi ya sude, kasi akozonga na mokili na ye.

10 And his sons shall wage war, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces, which shall advance and overflow and pass through, and they shall return and wage war, as far as his fortress.

Bana ya mokonzi ya nor bokobongama mpo na bitumba mpe bakosangisa mampinga ya basoda ebele, bongo bakomema lokola mpela biloko nyonso oyo bakomona na nzela; bakobunda bitumba makasi kino na ndako batonga makasi ya mokonzi ya sude.

11 The king of the south shall be moved with rage and shall come forth and fight against him, even with the king of the north; and he shall raise a great multitude, and the multitude shall be given into his hand.

Mokonzi ya sude akobima na kanda, akosangisa mampinga moko monene, akobundisa mokonzi ya mokili ya nor mpe akolonga ye.

12 The multitude shall be taken away, and his heart shall be exalted; and he shall cast down tens of thousands, but he shall not prevail.

Tango bakolonga mampinga ya mokonzi ya nor, mokonzi ya mokili ya sude akotondisama na lolendo mpe akoboma bato ebele, kasi elonga na ye ekowumela te.

13 The king of the north shall return, and shall raise a multitude greater than the former; and he shall advance after some years with a great army and with abundant supplies.

Pamba te mokonzi ya mokili ya nor akosangisa mampinga monene ya basoda koleka oyo ya liboso mpe, sima na mibu ebele, akozonga elongo na mampinga ya basoda ebele mpe na bibundeli ebele.

14 And in those times many shall rise up against the king of the south: also the violent ones among your people shall rise up in confirmation of the vision; but they shall fail.

Na tango wana, bato ebele bakotombokela mokonzi ya mokili ya sude. Bato ya mobulu kati na bato na yo, Daniele, bakotomboka mpo ete emoniseli ekokokisama, kasi bakolonga te.

15 So the king of the north shall come, and build up a siege mound and take a well-fortified city. And the forces of the south shall not prevail, neither his best troops, neither shall there be any strength to resist.

Mokonzi ya mokili ya nor akoya kotonga mwa bangomba ya mabele zingazinga ya engumba oyo batonga makasi mpe akobotola yango. Mampinga ya basoda ya mokonzi ya sude bakokoka kobundisa ye te. Ezala basoda na bango ya mpiko, bakozala ata na makasi ya kobunda te.

16 But he who comes against him shall do as he pleases, and no one shall be able to withstand him. And he shall stand in the beautiful land, and destruction will be within his power.

Mokonzi ya nor akosala makambo nyonso oyo alingi mpe moto moko te akokoka kotelema liboso na ye. Akovanda na mokili oyo eleki kitoko mpe akobebisa yango.

17 He shall set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and will reach an agreement with him which he shall put into effect. And he shall give him a daughter of women to send destruction on him; but it will not last or be to his advantage.

Akozwa mokano ya koya elongo na mampinga ya mokili na ye mobimba mpe akosala boyokani elongo na mokonzi ya sude. Mokonzi ya nor akopesa ye mwana na ye ya mwasi na libala mpo ete akoka kobebisa mokili na ye, kasi mabongisi na ye ekolonga te mpe akozwa mokili yango te.

18 After this shall he turn his face to the coastal regions, and shall capture many. But a commander shall bring his insolence to an end. In addition, he shall repay him for his insolence.

Akokitela bisanga mpe akobotola ebele kati na yango. Kasi atako bongo, mokonzi ya mampinga moko ya basoda akosukisa lolendo na ye mpe akozongisela ye mabe mpo na lolendo na ye. Mokonzi ya nor akokoka lisusu kosala eloko moko te.

19 Then he shall turn his attention toward the fortresses of his own land, but he shall stumble and fall, and shall not be found again.

Sima na yango, akozonga na bandako batonga makasi ya mokili na ye, kasi akobeta libaku mpe akokweya; bongo bakotikala komona ye lisusu te.

20 Then shall arise in his place one who shall send an exactor of tribute to pass through the kingdom to maintain its glory; but within few days he shall be destroyed, though not in anger nor in battle.

Mokitani na ye akotinda mofutisi mpako moko na esika oyo eleki lokumu kati na mokili. Sima na mwa mikolo, mokonzi mpe akobebisama, kasi ekozala na botomboki te mpe na bitumba te.

21 In his place shall arise a despicable person, to whom the honor of kingship had not been given, but he shall come in a time of prosperity, and shall obtain the kingdom through deceit.

Moto moko azanga ata tina mpe batikala kopesa ata lokumu ya bokonzi te akokitana na ye; akoya na tango ya kimia mpe akozwa bokonzi na nzela ya mayele mabe.

22 And large armies shall be swept away and shattered before him, as well as the prince of the covenant.

Mampinga ya banguna bakokweya liboso na ye, mampinga yango mpe mokonzi ya boyokani bakobebisama.

23 And after an alliance is made with him he shall work deceitfully; for he shall become strong with a small force.

Atako basalaki boyokani elongo na ye, akosalela kaka mayele mabe; akobebisa boyokani oyo basalaki, akobundisa bango mpe akolonga na nzela ya bato moke kaka.

24 In a time of prosperity he shall come even on the richest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor their fathers; he shall distribute among them plunder, and spoil, and property. He shall devise plans against their strongholds, but only for a time.

Na tango ya kimia, akokota na makasi kati na bituka oyo etonda na bomengo mpe akokokisa makambo oyo ata moko te kati na batata to bakoko na ye batikala kosala: akobotola na makasi biloko mpe bomengo ya mokili, bongo akokabola yango epai na bato na ye; akosala mabongisi ya kobundisa bingumba batonga makasi, kasi nyonso wana kaka ekowumela tango moke.

25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall wage war in battle with an extremely large and powerful army; but he shall not stand; for they shall devise plans against him.

Akovandisa makanisi na ye mpe akotelema na mpiko, akosangisa mampinga monene mpo na kobundisa mokonzi ya sude. Mpe mokonzi ya sude akosangisa mampinga monene mpe ya nguya mpo na kobundisa ye, kasi akolonga te mpo na likita oyo basalelaki ye.

26 Yes, those who eat of his royal food shall seek to destroy him, and his army shall be swept away; and many shall fall slain.

Bato oyo baliaka elongo na mokonzi bakoluka koboma ye, mampinga na ye bakobebisama mpe basoda ebele bakokufa na bitumba.

27 As for both these kings, their minds shall be fixed on evil, and they shall speak lies at the table; but it shall not succeed; for still the end shall be at the appointed time.

Bakonzi oyo mibale, na mitema na bango ya mabe, bakovanda esika moko. Lokola batonda na mayele mabe, bakolobana lokuta kasi ekosimba te, pamba te suka ya makambo ekoya kaka na tango oyo ekatama.

28 Then shall he return into his land with great property; and his mind shall be against the holy covenant. And he shall take action, and then return to his own land.

Mokonzi ya nor akozonga na mokili na ye na bomengo ebele, kasi makanisi ya motema na ye ekotelemela boyokani ya bule; mpe akokokisa yango liboso ete azonga na mokili na ye.

29 At the appointed time he shall return, and come into the south; but this time the outcome shall not be as it was before.

Na tango oyo ekatama, akokota lisusu na mokili ya sude na makasi; kasi na mbala oyo, makambo ekosalema ndenge moko te na mbala oyo ya liboso.

30 For ships from Kittim shall come against him; therefore he shall be intimidated, and shall turn back, and be enraged against the holy covenant, and shall take action. He shall turn back, and show regard to those who forsake the holy covenant.

Bamasuwa oyo ekowuta na ngambo ya weste ya ebale monene Mediterane ekobundisa ye; bongo, akolemba nzoto, akosilika makasi mpe akotombokela boyokani ya bule. Tango akozonga, akotalisa ngolu epai ya bato oyo bakobebisa boyokani ya bule.

31 Forces shall come at his order, and they shall profane the sanctuary and the fortress, and shall take away the daily burnt offering, and they shall set up the abomination that causes desolation.

Mampinga ya basoda na ye bakotelema mpo na kobebisa bosantu ya Tempelo mpe kobuka engumba batonga makasi; bakopekisa kobonza mbeka ya mokolo na mokolo mpe bakotonga etumbelo mpo na nzambe oyo babengaka Zewusi.

32 And those who act wickedly toward the covenant he shall corrupt by smooth words; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and take action.

Na mayele na ye ya mabe, akokosa bato oyo babukaki boyokani; kasi bato oyo bayebi Nzambe na bango bakotelemela ye makasi.

33 And those who are wise among the people shall instruct many; yet they shall fall by the sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder for some time.

Ba-oyo bakozala na bwanya kati na bato bakoteya bato ebele, atako bakokufa na mopanga na mwa tango moke to bakozika na moto to bakobwakama na boloko to mpe bakobotola bango biloko na makasi.

34 Now when they shall fall, they shall receive a little help. And many shall join with them insincerely.

Tango bakokweya, bakozwa kaka lisungi moke, mpe bato ebele bakoya kosangana na bango na mitema mibale.

35 Some of those who are wise shall fall, to be refined, purified and cleansed until the time of the end; for the appointed time is still to come.

Bato mosusu kati na bato ya bwanya bakobeta mabaku, mpo ete bakomisama bato ya kokoka, bapetolama mpe bazangi mbeba, mpo na tango ya suka, pamba te suka ya makambo ekoya kaka na tango oyo ekatama.

36 And the king shall do as he pleases. And he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak outrageous things against the God of gods. And he shall prosper until the indignation is accomplished; for that which is decreed shall be done.

Mokonzi akosala makambo oyo alingi, akokoma lolendo, akotombola mapeka liboso ya banzambe nyonso mpe akoloba makambo ezanga tina mpo na kotiola Nzambe ya banzambe; akolonga kino tango kanda makasi ya Nzambe ekosila, pamba te makambo nyonso oyo ekatama esengeli kokokisama.

37 Neither shall he regard the gods of his fathers, nor the one desired by women, nor show regard to any other god, because he shall magnify himself above all.

Akopesa lokumu te, ezala epai ya banzambe ya batata na ye to epai ya nzambe oyo basi balingaka to mpe epai ya banzambe nyonso mosusu; pamba te akomitombola liboso na bango nyonso.

38 But instead he shall honor the god of fortresses; a god whom his fathers did not know shall he honor with gold and silver, and with valuable stones, and costly gifts.

Na esika ya kosambela banzambe wana, akosambela nzambe ya bandako batonga makasi; akobonza wolo, palata, mabanga ya talo mpe makabo mosusu ya talo epai ya nzambe oyo bakoko na ye batikalaki koyeba te.

39 And he shall deal with the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god. Whoever acknowledges him he shall grant considerable honor; and he shall make them rulers over many, and shall divide the land for a price.

Akobundisa bandako batonga makasi na lisungi ya nzambe moko ya bapaya, mpe akopesa lokumu koleka epai ya bato oyo bakopesa nzambe yango lokumu. Akokomisa bango bakambi ya bato ebele mpe akokabolela bango mokili lokola lifuti.

40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south attack him. And the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall invade countries, and pass through like a flood.

Na tango ya suka, mokonzi ya sude akobundisa mokonzi ya nor, kasi mokonzi ya nor akobimela ye elongo na bashar, bampunda mpe bamasuwa ya bitumba. Akokota na makasi na bikolo ebele mpe akomema lokola mpela eloko nyonso oyo akomona na nzela.

41 He shall enter also into the beautiful land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall be delivered out of his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the foremost of the sons of Ammon.

Akokota lisusu na makasi na mokili ya kitoko. Bikolo ebele ekokweya, kasi Edomi, Moabi mpe bakonzi ya Amoni bakokima ye.

42 He shall reach out his hand also on other countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

Bokonzi na ye ekopanzana na bikolo ebele, ezala mokili ya Ejipito ekobika te.

43 But he shall have control over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the riches of Egypt; and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his feet.

Akobotola wolo, palata mpe bomengo nyonso ya mokili ya Ejipito, bongo bato ya Libi mpe ya Kushi bakosala ndenge moko kaka na ye.

44 But news out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him; and he shall go out with tremendous rage to destroy and utterly sweep away many.

Kasi basango oyo akozwa wuta na este mpe na nor ekotungisa ye, mpe akobima na mokili na kanda makasi mpo na koboma mpe kosilisa bato ebele.

45 And he shall pitch his royal tents between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain. Yet he shall come to his end, with no one to help him.

Akotelemisa bandako na ye ya kapo ya bokonzi na ngambo moko ya ebale monene, pembeni ya ngomba ya bule. Boye, akokoma na suka mpe moto oyo akosunga ye akozala te.
