< Daniel 7 >

1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream and told the sum of the matters.
Babylon lengpa Belshazzar lengvaipoh kal, kum masapen chun, Daniel ajalkhun’a aluppet in, amang in themgao thilmu khat aneiye. Aman amang’a athilmu ho chu asundoh in, athudol chu hiti ahi.
2 Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven brake forth upon the great sea.
Daniel keiman jan kamang chun, twikhanglen’a khopi hui nasatah in twipi ahinpeija chuleh aninglia kon’a hui hattah in ahin semling soh chu kamui.
3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
Chuin twikhanglen twi lah’a kon chun, sahem li ahung potdoh'in, amaho chu akilou beihel, achom cheh ahiuve.
4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon two feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it.
Sahem masapen chu, muvanlai lhaving nei sakei bahkai tobang ahi. Keiman kavet vet leh, alhaving teni chu apullhan, chuin sahem chu mihem bang in, anung kengin apansan ading’e. Chuleh hiche sahem chu mihem lungthim kipe ahi.
5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in his mouth between his teeth: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
Chuin sahem nina chu kamun, vompi tobang ahi. Hiche sahem chu apang khatseh in apansan. Chuleh akamsung’a aha chung leh noi kah’a chun nahgu thum amom’e. Chuleh keiman, hiche sahem jah’a kiseipeh aw khat kajan, “kipat doh in mihem ho sa najo chan gane tan” ati.
6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
Chujou chun sahem thumna kidangtah khat ahung potdoh kamun, lutnu toh akilouve. Hiche sahem chun atungtun’a vacha lhaving li aneiyin, chuleh aluchang jong li aneiye. Chuleh thuneina lentah lengvaipohna chu hiche sahem hi kipe ahi.
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, terrible and powerful, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
Hichejou ajan chun, themgao thilmun mang kanei kit in, sahem lina chu kamui. Hichu kichat umtah leh tijat umtah ahin, ahat’a hat ahi. Hiche sahem hin ahatmo ho sa chu alhai ngimset sot in, ane jin ahi. Aha ho jong thih ngen ahin chuleh alen theije. Chuleh anehmoh ho chengse chu akengphang in tol’ah achilgoijin ahi. Hiche sahem hi, sahem dang kamu masah hotoh kibanglou hel ahin, aki jong som aneiye.
8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.
Aki hochu kavet vet leh, alah’uva chun a ki neocha achombeh khat ahung dondoh in ahi. Hiche aki neocha mun ong-ot nan, ana um masa aki thum hochu ajung pum in apullha tauve. Aki neocha chun mit aneiyin mihem mit tobang ahin, chuleh akam jong chu ham hoithona dim ahi.
9 I beheld till thrones were placed, and one that was ancient of days did sit: his raiment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, [and] the wheels thereof burning fire.
Hitia kavet petchun, laltouna ho ahung kidotoh in, chuin gollui khangmasa-apat-umsa kitipa chu thutan vaihom dingin laltouna chu alotai. Aponsil chu buhbang tobang'in abangleh in, chuleh alujang sam jong chu samul theng jolsel tobang ahi. Ama chu mei-am pahlah tobang laltouna chung’a atouvin, chuleh alaltouna kitunna velkol ho chu meikou leng tobang ahiuve.
10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
Vadung twilong bangin meikong chu ahung longdoh jengin, hichu ama umna'a-angsung’a kon’a hung longdoh ahi. A sangsom asangja vantil ho chu ama kinbol ding in a-ang sung’a chun angah uve. Chuin lekhabu chu aphong un, chuleh thutanna jong chu akipan tai.
11 I beheld at that time because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake; I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and he was given to be burned with fire.
Chuin aki neocha chun kiletsah tah’a thu asei gin chu kajan, hijeh chun keiman kave den tan ahi. Hitia kavet petchun, sahem li’na chu athatdoh’un chuleh atahsa chu meilhum sung’a agouvam un, a sumang tauve.
12 And as for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
Chuleh sahem dang thum hojong chu, amaho’a kon in athuneina’u akilahmangpeh tauve. Ahivang in amaho chu phat chomkhat ahinkho’u umbe nalai dingin akikoi tai.
13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man, and he came even to the ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
Chuche jan kamang chun themgao thilmu bangin kamu kit in, vanlaijol’a meilhang lom toh mihem chapa tobang khat ahung kamui. Aman gollui khang masa-a pat hung umpeh pachu anailut in, a-angsung’ah apuilut tai.
14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
Ama chu vannoi pumpia namtin vaipi chunga thuneina leh jabolna chuleh lengvaihomna chu kipe ahitai. Ajeh chu chitin namtin’ah mijouse leh paotintang in, ama thu chu angai ding ahi. Ama lengvaipoh chuh atonsot’a umjing ding, chuleh beitih neilouva kisumang talou ding ahitai.
15 As for me Daniel, my spirit was grieved in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.
Keima, Daniel Kitipa hi, kamang a kathilmu hochun kalung asuboi alheh in, chuleh gaova kathilmu chengse chun eisukicha jeng in ahi.
16 I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth concerning all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.
Hijeh chun, keiman laltouna kimvel’a ding jingho lah’a mikhat chu ka nailut in, ajah’a thilsoh hicheng hi ipi kisei na hitam, tin kadong’e. Aman hiche ho hilchetna chu hitin ei seipeh tai.
17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.
Hiche sahem li hohi, khonung’a leiset chung’a hung leng chang ding leng li ho vetsahna ahiuve.
18 But the saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.
Amavang ninunung nileh, Chungnungpen Pathen mithengte khut’a, alenggam’u chu kipedoh’a, amahon atonsot’a lengvai apoh ding’u ahi tai.
19 Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth beast, which was diverse from all of them, exceeding terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;
Chuin sahem lina, adang toh kibang louhel, kichat tijat umpen chu, avetsahna dihtah ipi ham, ti kahetnom lheh jenge. Hiche sahem chu aha jouse thih ahin, chuleh atin ho sum-eng jeng ahiuve. Hichun, ahatmo ho sa abottel tel in, sahing chu anen, chuleh amoh chengse chu tol’a akengphang in achil goijin ahi.
20 and concerning the ten horns that were on his head, and the other [horn] which came up, and before which three fell; even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.
Keiman kadong kit in, sahem lina luchang’a aki som jen aumdoh jouva neocha achombeh khat ahung dondoh kit a, aummasa aki thumho asuhmang jeng hi, ipi kiseina ham, kati. Hichea aki neocha hi aki dangho sangin loupijo in aume. Chuleh hiche hin, mihem mit tobang mitni aneiyin chuleh akam jong ham hoitho adim e.
21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
Hitia kavet vet leh, hiche aki neocha chun, Pathen mithengte chung’a gal ahinsat in, chuleh amaho chu abon’un gal in ajousoh in.
22 until the ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
Chungnungpen Pathen, gollui khangmasa peh’a umjing chu, ahung’a ama mithengte ding’a thutanna ahungbol kahsen, gal ajoutapouve. Chuin, mithengten hiche lenggam chu akisan’uva chuleh alonadiu phat chu ahung lhung tai.
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
Chuin aman kajah’a asei chu, Hiche sahem lina hi, leiset chunga lengvai hinpo ding lenggam lina hung umding chu avetsah ahi. Hichu lenggam adangho toh kibang louhel, achombeh hiding ahi. Hiche lenggam chun, leiset pumpi avallhum’a lengvai apoh ding, ijakai chu akengto’a achotpha’a chuleh achilgoi ding ahi.
24 And as for the ten horns, out of this kingdom shall ten kings arise: and another shall arise after them; and he shall be diverse from the former, and he shall put down three kings.
Chuleh alu’a aki som jen um chu, vaipo ding leng som ho ahiuve. Chuin amaho lah’a chun, lengdang khat hung intin, ama chu anaum masa leng hotoh kibang louhel ding ahi. Chuleh anaumsa lenggam thum hochu, aman asuhnem ding ahi atipeh e.
25 And he shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High: and he shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and half a time.
Hiche lengpa hin, Chungnungpen Pathen chu adou ding chuleh amithengte jong abolgim ding ahi. Aman Pathen mithengte chonna dan holeh golnop ho khel ding angaito ding, chuleh amithengte jouse athunoija kumkhat, kumni chuleh kumkeh khat aumsah ding’a kipedoh ding ahi, atipeh e.
26 But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
Amavang chutahleh, thutanna inpia thutanpa hung pansa-a, thu adih’a ahin tanding, chuleh lengpa thuneina chengse kilah peh’a chuleh kisumang hel ding ahi.
27 And the kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High: his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
Chuteng vannoi lenggam ho lengvaipohna, thaneina chuleh loupina jouse Chungnungpen Pathen mithengte kipedoh ding ahiuve. Mithengte lenggam chu atonsot’a umjing ding chuleh amaho chu Pathen lhacha-a pang’uva chuleh athua nungdiu ahi, ati.
28 Here is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my thoughts much troubled me, and my countenance was changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart.
Hicheng chu themgao thilmu ho kichaina ahitai. Chuleh Daniel keima vang kalung agim lheh jengin, chuleh kichat leh tijatnan kamel akikhello leuvin ahi. Ahivang in, hiche ho chu seidoh louvin, kalunggil’a kaching jing in, kakoiye,’’ ati.
