Daniel 12
1 And, at that time, will Michael, the great ruler who standeth for the sons of thy people, make a stand, and there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, up to that time, —and, at that time, shall thy people, be delivered, every one found written in the book;
“Mu biro ebyo Mikayiri omulangira omukulu akuuma abantu bo aligolokoka, ne yeeyimirira abantu bo. Waliba ekiseera eky’okubonaaboneramu ekitabangawo okuva ku kutondebwa kw’amawanga. Naye mu biro ebyo, omuntu aliba awandiikiddwa mu kitabo, alirokolebwa.
2 and, many of the sleepers in the dusty ground, shall awake, —these, [shall be] to age-abiding life, but, those, to reproach, and age-abiding abhorrence;
Bangi ku beebase mu nfuufu ey’ensi baligolokoka, abamu eri obulamu obutaggwaawo, n’abalala eri ensonyi n’okuswazibwa okutaggwaawo.
3 and, they who make wise, shall shine like the shining of the expanse, —and, they who bring the many to righteousness, like the stars to times age-abiding and beyond.
Abo abalina okutegeera balyakaayakana ng’okumasamasa kw’omu bbanga; n’abo abakyusa abangi okudda eri obutuukirivu, balyakaayakana ng’emmunyeenye emirembe n’emirembe.
4 But, thou, Daniel, close up the words, and seal the book, until the time of the end, —many will run to and fro, and knowledge, shall abound.
Naye ggwe Danyeri, bikka era osse envumbo ku kitabo okutuusa ekiseera eky’enkomerero lwe kirituuka. Bangi balitambula eno n’eri, era n’okumanya n’amagezi kulyeyongera.”
5 Then, I, Daniel, looked, and lo! two others, standing, —one on this side of the bank of the river, and one on that side of the bank of the river.
Nze Danyeri ne ndyoka ndaba, laba babiri abalala nga bayimiridde mu maaso gange, omu ku lubalama lw’omugga olumu, n’omulala ku lubalama lw’omugga olulwolekedde.
6 And one said to the man clothed with linen, who was upon the waters of the river, How long shall be the end of the wonders?
Omu ku bo n’agamba omusajja, eyali waggulu w’amazzi g’omugga ng’ayambadde linena nti, “Kiritwala bbanga ki ebyewuunyisa ebyo byonna okutuukirira?”
7 And I heard the man clothed with linen who was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left unto the heavens, and sware by him that liveth unto times age-abiding, —For a set time and times and a half, and, when the dispersion of a part of the holy people, is brought to an end, then shall come to an end all these things.
Omusajja eyali waggulu w’amazzi g’omugga ng’ayambadde linena, n’ayimusa omukono gwe ogwa ddyo n’omukono gwe ogwa kkono eri eggulu, ne mmuwulira ng’alayira eri oyo abeera omulamu emirembe n’emirembe, ng’ayogera nti, “Waliyitawo ebbanga lya myaka esatu n’ekitundu. Era amaanyi g’abantu abatukuvu bwe galimalibwawo, ebintu ebyo byonna ne biryoka bituukirira.”
8 And, I, heard, but could not understand, —so I said, O my lord! what shall be the issue of these things?
Ne mpulira naye ne sitegeera. Kyennava mbuuza nti, “Mukama wange, biki ebiriva mu ebyo byonna?”
9 Then said he, Go thy way, Daniel; for closed up and sealed are the words, until the time of the end.
N’anziramu nti, “Weetambulire makubo go, Danyeri, kubanga ebigambo bibikiddwako era n’ekitabo kissibbwako envumbo okutuusa ekiseera eky’enkomerero.
10 Many, will purify themselves and be made white and be refined, but the lawless, will act lawlessly, and none of the lawless, shall understand, —but, they who make wise, shall understand;
Bangi balitukuzibwa ne balongoosebwa obutabaako na bbala, naye abatali batuukirivu balyeyongera okukola ebibi. Ku batali batuukirivu tekuliba ategeera, naye ab’amagezi baliba n’okutegeera.
11 and, from the time of the taking away of the continual [ascending-sacrifice], and the placing of the horrid abomination that astoundeth, [shall be] one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
“N’okuva mu kiseera ekya ssaddaaka eya buli lunaku ng’eggyiddwawo n’eby’emizizo ebizikiriza nga biteekeddwawo, waliyitawo ennaku lukumi mu bibiri mu kyenda.
12 Happy! is he that waiteth, and attaineth to one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
Alina omukisa oyo alirindirira n’atuuka ku nkomerero ey’ennaku olukumi mu bisatu mu asatu mu ttaano.
13 But, thou, go thy way to the end, —and thou shalt rest, and shalt rise to thy lot at the end of the days.
“Naye ggwe tambula makubo go okutuusa enkomerero lwe lituuka. Oliwummula, ne ku nkomerero oligolokoka n’oweebwa omugabo gwo gwe wategekerwa.”
