Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus, king of Persia, a matter, was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and faithful was the matter, but [concerned] a great warfare, and he marked the word, and had understanding in the revelation.
Na mobu ya misato ya bokonzi ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, Nzambe alakisaki makambo epai ya Daniele oyo bazalaki kobenga Belitsatsari. Makambo yango ezalaki ya solo: etalisaki pasi makasi oyo ekoya. Daniele azwaki mayele ya kososola yango kati na emoniseli.
2 In those days, I, Daniel, was mourning three sevens of days:
Na tango wana, ngai Daniele, nasalaki matanga oyo esalaki baposo misato.
3 food to delight in, did I not eat, neither flesh nor wine, came into my mouth, nor did I so much as, anoint, myself, —until were fulfilled three sevens of days.
Nazalaki kolia lisusu bilei ya kitoko te; ezala misuni to vino, eloko moko te ekotaki lisusu na monoko na ngai. Mpe, na baposo misato wana, nazalaki kopakola lisusu mafuta ya solo kitoko te.
4 And, on the twenty-fourth day of the first month, —when, I, was by the side of the great river, the same, is Tigris,
Na mokolo ya tuku mibale na minei ya sanza ya liboso, tango nazalaki pembeni ya ebale monene Tigre,
5 then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and lo! a man, clothed in linen, —whose loins, were girded with the bright gold of Uphaz;
natombolaki miso na ngai na likolo mpe namonaki moto moko alata bilamba ya lino mpe mokaba moko ya wolo ya Ufazi na loketo na ye.
6 whose body, was like Tarshish-stone, and, his face, like the appearance of lightning, and, his eyes, were like torches of fire, and, his arms and his feet, like the look of bronze burnished, —and, the sound of his words, was like the sound of a multitude.
Nzoto na ye ezalaki kongenga lokola topaze, elongi na ye ezalaki kongala lokola mokalikali, miso na ye ezalaki kopela lokola moto, maboko mpe makolo na ye ezalaki kongenga lokola ebende ya bronze oyo balekisa na moto, mpe mongongo na ye ezalaki koyokana lokola makelele ya bato ebele.
7 And, I, Daniel, alone, beheld the revelation, and, the men who were with me, beheld not the revelation, —in truth, a great terror, had fallen upon them, and they had fled while hiding themselves.
Ngai, Daniele, ngai moko kaka nde namonaki emoniseli yango. Bato oyo bazalaki elongo na ngai bamonaki yango te, kasi somo makasi ekweyelaki bango, bakimaki mpe babombamaki.
8 I, therefore, was left alone, and beheld this great revelation, and there remained in me no strength, —but, my freshness, was turned upon me into disfigurement, and I retained no strength.
Boye, natikalaki kaka ngai moko mpe nakomaki kotala emoniseli monene yango; makasi esilaki ngai, elongi na ngai ebebaki makasi mpe nalembaki nzoto.
9 So then I heard the sound of his words, —and, when I heard the sound of his words, then, I myself, came to be in a deep sleep upon my face, with, my face, to the earth.
Nayokaki moto yango koloba; bongo wana nazalaki koyoka mongongo na ye, nakweyaki makalikali, elongi kino na mabele.
10 And lo! a hand, touched me; and roused me up on my knees and the palms of my hands.
Loboko moko esimbaki ngai mpe etelemisaki ngai, makolo mpe maboko na ngai ekomaki kolenga.
11 Then said he unto me, O Daniel! man greatly delighted in! have understanding in the words which, I, am about to speak unto thee, and stand up where thou art, for, now, have I been sent unto thee. And, when he had spoken with me this word, I stood up trembling.
Bongo moto yango alobaki na ngai: — Daniele, molingami ya Nzambe, yoka malamu maloba oyo nazali koyebisa yo mpe telema na esika oyo ozali, pamba te natindami sik’oyo epai na yo. Wana azalaki nanu koloba na ngai, natelemaki na kolenga.
12 Then said he unto me, Do not fear, Daniel, for, from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard; and, I, am come, by reason of thy words.
Akobaki koloba na ngai: — Daniele, kobanga te! Wuta mokolo ya liboso oyo ozwaki makanisi ya koluka kososola mpe komikitisa liboso ya Nzambe na yo, libondeli na yo eyokamaki, mpe nayaki lokola eyano na libondeli yango.
13 But, the ruler of the kingdom of Persia, withstood me twenty-one days, but lo! Michael, one of the chief rulers, came in to help me, —and, I, left him there, beside the kings of Persia.
Kasi mokambi ya mokili ya Persi atelemelaki ngai mikolo tuku mibale na moko. Boye, Misheli, moko kati na bakonzi ya ba-anjelu, ayaki kosunga ngai, pamba te bakonzi ya Persi bakangaki ngai kuna.
14 So then I am come to let thee understand that which shall befall thy people in the afterpart of the days, —for yet is the vision for [those] days.
Sik’oyo, nayei kolimbolela yo makambo oyo ekokomela bato na yo na mikolo ekoya, pamba te emoniseli oyo ezali kolobela lisusu makambo oyo ekosalema na mikolo ekoya.
15 And, when he had spoken with me such words as these, —I set my face towards the earth, and was dumb.
Wana azalaki koloba na ngai, nakitisaki elongi mpe nakokaki lisusu koloba te.
16 Then lo! like the similitude of the sons of men, one was touching my lips, —so I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him who was standing before me, O my lord! By the revelation, my pains have seized me, and I retain no strength.
Boye, ekelamu oyo ezalaki lokola moto esimbaki bibebu na ngai, mpe nakokaki lisusu kofungola monoko na ngai mpo na koloba. Nalobaki na ekelamu oyo etelemaki liboso na ngai: — Nkolo na ngai, molimo na ngai etungisami likolo ya emoniseli oyo nasili kozwa, mpe, ngai moto, nalembi nzoto!
17 How then can the servant of this my lord speak with this my lord, —seeing that, as for me—henceforth, there remaineth in me no strength, and no, spirit, is left in me?
Ndenge nini mosali lokola ngai, nakoka solo kosolola na yo, nkolo na ngai, awa makasi esili ngai mpe kopema na ngai ekomi na pasi?
18 Then again there touched me one like in appearance to a son of earth, and he strengthened me.
Ekelamu oyo ezalaki lokola moto esimbaki ngai lisusu mpe epesaki ngai makasi.
19 And he said, Do not fear, O man greatly delighted in! peace to thee, be strong, yea be strong! And, as he spake with me, I gained strength, and said, Let my lord speak, for thou hast strengthened me.
Elobaki na ngai: — Molingami ya Nzambe, kobanga te, zala na kimia! Zala makasi; solo, zala makasi! Wana ezalaki koloba na ngai, nzoto na ngai ezwaki lisusu makasi mpe nalobaki: — Loba, nkolo na ngai, pamba te opesi ngai makasi.
20 And he said, Knowest thou wherefore I am come unto thee? But, now, must I return to fight with the ruler of Persia; I, therefore am going forth, and lo! the ruler of Greece, is coming.
Boye, elobaki: — Boni, oyebi mpo na nini nayei epai na yo? Sik’oyo, nakomi pene ya kozonga mpo na kobundisa mokambi ya Persi; mpe tango ngai nakokende, mokambi ya Grese akoya;
21 Howbeit I will tell thee that which is inscribed in the writing of truth, —but there is no one who holdeth strongly with me concerning these things, save Michael your ruler.
kasi liboso na nyonso, nakoyebisa yo makambo oyo ekomami kati na buku ya solo. Moto moko te asungaka ngai liboso na bango; kaka Misheli, mokambi na bino.
