Daniel 11

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

Eu, pois, no primeiro anno de Dario, medo, estive para o esforçar e fortalecer.

2 And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and when he is waxed strong through his riches, he shall stir up all against the realm of Greece.

E agora te declararei a verdade: Eis que ainda tres reis estarão na Persia, e o quarto será enriquecido de grandes riquezas mais do que todos; e, esforçando-se com as suas riquezas, suscitará a todos contra o reino da Grecia.

3 And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.

Depois se levantará um rei valente, que reinará com grande dominio, e fará o que lhe aprouver.

4 And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; but not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion wherewith he ruled; for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside these.

Mas, estando elle em pé, o seu reino será quebrado, e será repartido para os quatro ventos do céu, porém não para a sua posteridade, nem tão pouco segundo o seu dominio com que reinou, porque o seu reino será arrancado, e será para outros fóra d'estes.

5 And the king of the south shall be strong, and [one] of his princes; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion.

E se esforçará o rei do sul, um d'entre os seus principes; mas outro se esforçará, mais do que elle, e reinará, e dominio grande será o seu dominio,

6 And 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 the strength of her arm; neither shall he stand, nor his arm; but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in those times.

Mas, ao cabo de alguns annos, um com outro fará concerto; e a filha do rei do sul virá ao rei do norte para fazer um tratado, mas ella não terá força de braço; nem elle persistirá, nem o seu braço, porque ella será entregue, e os que a tiverem trazido, e seu pae, e o que a esforçava n'aquelles tempos!

7 But out of a shoot from her roots shall one stand up in his place, which shall come unto the army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail:

Mas do renovo das suas raizes um se levantará em seu logar, e virá com o exercito, e entrará nas fortalezas do rei do norte, e obrará contra elles, e prevalecerá.

8 And also their gods, with their molten images, [and] with their goodly vessels of silver and of gold, shall he carry captive into Egypt; and he shall refrain some years from the king of the north.

E tambem os seus deuses com os seus principes, com os seus vasos preciosos de prata e oiro, levará captivos para o Egypto; e por alguns annos elle persistirá contra o rei do norte.

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

Assim entrará o rei do sul no reino, e tornará para a sua terra.

10 And his sons shall war, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces which shall come on, and overflow, and pass through: and they shall return and war, even to his fortress.

Porém seus filhos se entremetterão em guerra, e ajuntarão grande numero de exercitos, e um d'elles virá á pressa, e inundará, e passará, e tornará a entremetter-se em guerra, até chegar á sua fortaleza

11 And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude, and the multitude shall be given into his hand.

Então o rei do sul se exasperará, e sairá, e pelejará contra elle, a saber, contra o rei do norte, que porá em campo grande multidão, mas aquella multidão será entregue na sua mão

12 And the multitude shall be lifted up, and his heart shall be exalted: and he shall cast down tens of thousands, but he shall not prevail.

Quando fôr tirada aquella multidão, o seu coração se elevará: ainda que derribará muitos milhares, comtudo não prevalecerá.

13 And the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former; and he shall come on at the end of the times, [even of] years, with a great army and with much substance.

Porque o rei do norte tornará, e porá em campo uma multidão maior do que a primeira, e ao cabo dos tempos, isto é, annos, virá á pressa com grande exercito e com muita fazenda.

14 And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the children of the violent among thy people shall lift themselves up to establish the vision; but they shall fall.

E, n'aquelles tempos, muitos se levantarão contra o rei do sul; e os filhos dos prevaricadores do teu povo se levantarão para confirmar a visão, e cairão.

15 So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take a well fenced city: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.

E o rei do norte virá, e levantará baluartes, e tomará a cidade forte; e os braços do sul não poderão subsistir, nem o seu povo escolhido, pois não haverá força para subsistir.

16 But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, and in his hand shall be destruction.

O que pois ha de vir contra elle fará segundo a sua vontade, e não haverá quem possa subsistir diante d'elle: e estará na terra gloriosa, e haverá consumição na sua mão.

17 And he shall set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; and he shall do [his pleasure]: and he shall give him the daughter of women, to corrupt her; but she shall not stand, neither be for him.

E porá o seu rosto, para vir com a potencia de todo o seu reino, e com elle os rectos, e o fará: e lhe dará uma filha das mulheres, para a destruir a ella, mas ella não subsistirá, nem será por elle.

18 After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many: but a prince shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; yea, moreover, he shall cause his reproach to turn upon him.

Depois virará o seu rosto para as ilhas, e tomará muitas; e um principe fará cessar o seu opprobrio contra elle, e ainda fará tornar sobre elle o seu opprobrio.

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

Virará pois o seu rosto para as fortalezas da sua terra, mas tropeçará, e cairá, e não será achado.

20 Then shall stand up in his place one that shall cause an exactor to pass through the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

E em seu logar se levantará quem fará passar o arrecadador em gloria real; mas em poucos dias será quebrantado, e isto não em ira nem em batalha.

21 And in his place shall stand up a contemptible person, to whom they had not given the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in time of security, and shall obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

Depois se levantará em seu logar um homem vil, ao qual não darão a dignidade real; mas virá caladamente, e tomará o reino com engano.

22 And with the arms of a flood shall they be swept away from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant.

E os braços da inundação serão inundados de diante d'elle; e serão quebrantados, como tambem o principe do concerto.

23 And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong, with a small people.

E, depois dos concertos com elle, usará de engano; e subirá, e será esforçado com pouca gente.

24 In time of security shall he come even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers; he shall scatter among them prey, and spoil, and substance: yea, he shall devise his devices against the strong holds, even for a time.

Virá tambem caladamente aos logares gordos da provincia, e fará o que nunca fizeram seus paes, nem os paes de seus paes; repartirá entre elles a preza e os despojos, e a riqueza, e formará os seus projectos contra as fortalezas, porém sómente por certo tempo

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 war in battle with an exceeding great and mighty army: but he shall not stand, for they shall devise devices against him.

E suscitará a sua força e o seu coração contra o rei do sul com um grande exercito; e o rei do sul se entremetterá na guerra com um grande e mui poderoso exercito; mas não subsistirá, porque formarão projectos contra elle.

26 Yea, they that eat of his meat shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow: and many shall fall down slain.

E os que comerem os seus manjares o quebrantarão; e o exercito d'elle inundará, e cairão muitos traspassados.

27 And as for both these kings, their hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table: but it shall not prosper; for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.

Tambem estes dois reis terão o coração attento para fazerem o mal, e a uma mesma mesa fallarão a mentira, mas não prosperará, porque o fim ainda terá logar no tempo determinado.

28 Then shall he return into his land with great substance; and his heart [shall be] against the holy covenant; and he shall do [his pleasure], and return to his own land.

E tornará para a sua terra com grande riqueza, e o seu coração será contra o sancto concerto; e obrará, e tornará para a sua terra

29 At the time appointed he shall return, and come into the south; but it shall not be in the latter time as it was in the former.

Ao tempo determinado tornará a vir contra o sul; mas não será a ultima como a primeira vez.

30 For ships of Kittim shall come against him; therefore he shall be grieved, and shall return, and have indignation against the holy covenant, and shall do [his pleasure]: he shall even return, and have regard unto them that forsake the holy covenant.

Porque virão contra elle navios de Chittim, de que se entristecerá; e tornará, e se indignará contra o sancto concerto, e obrará, porque tornará a attender aos que tiverem desamparado o sancto concerto.

31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall profane the sanctuary, even the fortress, and shall take away the continual [burnt offering]; and they shall set up the abomination that maketh desolate.

E sairão a elle uns braços, e profanarão o sanctuario e a fortaleza, e tirarão o continuo sacrificio, e porão a abominação assoladora.

32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he pervert by flatteries: but the people that know their God shall be strong, and do [exploits].

E aos violadores do concerto com lisonjas fará usar de hypocrisia, mas o povo que conhece ao seu Deus se esforçará e fará proezas.

33 And they that be wise among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword and by flame, by captivity and by spoil, [many] days.

E os entendidos entre o povo ensinarão a muitos; e cairão pela espada, e pelo fogo, e pelo captiveiro, e pelo roubo, por muitos dias.

34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall join themselves unto them with flatteries.

E, caindo elles, serão ajudados com pequeno soccorro; e muitos se ajuntarão com elles com lisonjas.

35 And some of them that be wise shall fall, to refine them, and to purify, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for the time appointed.

E alguns dos entendidos cairão, para os provar, e purgar, e embranquecer, até ao fim do tempo, porque será ainda até ao tempo determinado.

36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods: and he shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished; for that which is determined shall be done.

E este rei fará conforme a sua vontade, e se levantará, e se engrandecerá sobre todo o deus; e contra o Deus dos deuses fallará coisas maravilhosas, e será prospero, até que a ira seja acabada; porque aquillo que está determinado será feito.

37 Neither shall he regard the gods his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.

E não terá respeito algum ao Deus de seus paes, nem terá respeito ao amor das mulheres, nem a algum outro deus, porque sobre tudo se engrandecerá.

38 But in his place shall he honour the god of fortresses: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.

E ao deus das fortalezas honrará em seu logar, a saber, ao deus a quem seus paes não conheceram honrará com oiro, e com prata, e com pedras preciosas, e com coisas desejadas.

39 And he shall deal with the strongest fortresses by the help of a strange god; whosoever acknowledgeth [him] he will increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for a price.

E fará os castellos fortes com o deus estranho; aos que reconhecer multiplicará a honra, e os fará reinar sobre muitos, e repartirá a terra por preço.

40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south contend with 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 enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass through.

E, no fim do tempo, o rei do sul lhe dará marradas, e o rei do norte o accommetterá com carros, e com cavalleiros, e com muitos navios; e entrará nas terras, e as inundará, e passará.

41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many [countries] shall be overthrown: but these shall be delivered out of his hand, Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.

E entrará na terra gloriosa, e muitas terras serão derribadas, mas escaparão da sua mão estes: Edom e Moab, e as primicias dos filhos d'Amon.

42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

E estenderá a sua mão ás terras, e a terra do Egypto não escapará.

43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.

E apoderar-se-ha dos thesouros de oiro e de prata, e de todas as coisas desejadas do Egypto; e os lybios e os ethiopes o seguirão.

44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: and he shall go forth with great fury to destroy and utterly to make away many.

Mas os rumores do oriente e do norte o espantarão; e sairá com grande furor, para destruir e extirpar a muitos.

45 And he shall plant the tents of his palace between the sea and the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

E armará as tendas do seu palacio entre o mar grande, no monte sancto e glorioso; mas virá ao seu fim, e não haverá quem o soccorra.
