Daniel 7
1 In the first year of Belshazzar, king of Babylon, Daniel, beheld, a dream, and visions of his head upon his bed, —then, the dream, he wrote, the sum of the matters, he told.
A shekara ta fari ta mulkin Belshazar sarkin Babilon, Daniyel ya yi mafarki, wahayoyi kuma suka ratsa tunaninsa a sa’ad da yake a kwance a gadonsa. Sai ya rubuta abin da mafarkin ya ƙunsa.
2 Daniel spake and said, I was looking, in my vision [which came] with the night, —when, lo! the four winds of the heavens, bursting forth upon the great sea;
Daniyel ya ce, “A cikin wahayina da dare na duba, a gabana kuwa ga kusurwoyi huɗu na sama suna gurɓata babban teku.
3 and four large wild beasts, coming up out of the sea, —diverse, one from another: —
Sai ga dabbobi huɗu, kowannensu ya yi dabam da sauran, suna fitowa daga teku.
4 The foremost, like a lion, having, the wings of an eagle, —I looked until the wings thereof, were torn out, and it was lifted up from the earth, and, upon its feet, like a man, was it caused to stand, and, the heart of a man, was given to it.
“Na farkon ya yi kamar zaki kuma yana da fikafikai kamar gaggafa. Ina kallo, sai aka fizge fikafikanta, aka ɗaga ta sama, aka sa ta tsaya a kan ƙafafu biyu kamar mutum, aka ba ta tunani irin na mutum.
5 And, lo! another wild beast, a second, resembling a bear, and, on one side, was it raised up, with three ribs in its mouth, between its teeth, —and, thus, were they saying to it, Rise! devour much flesh.
“A gabana kuma ga dabba ta biyu, wadda ta yi kamar beyar. Aka ɗaga ta a gefenta guda, tana kuwa da haƙarƙarai uku a bakinta a tsakanin haƙoranta. Aka faɗa mata, ‘Tashi ki cika cikinki da ɗanyen nama!’
6 After that, I was looking, and lo! another like a leopard, and it, had four wings of a bird upon its back, —and four heads, had the wild beast, and dominion, was given to it,
“Bayan haka, na duba, a gabana kuwa ga wata dabba wadda ta yi kamar Damisa, a bayanta kuma tana da fikafikai huɗu irin na tsuntsu. Wannan dabbar tana da kawuna huɗu, aka kuma ba ta iko tă yi mulki.
7 After that, I was looking in the visions of the night, when lo! a fourth wild beast, terrible and well-hipped and exceeding strong, and it had, large teeth of iron, it devoured and brake in pieces, and, the residue—with its feet, it trampled down, —and, it, was diverse from all the wild beasts that were before it, and it had, ten horns.
“Bayan haka, a cikin wahayina da dare na duba, a gabana kuwa ga dabba ta huɗu, wadda take da bantsoro da banrazana da kuma iko ƙwarai. Tana da manyan haƙoran ƙarfe; ta ragargaje ta cinye abin da ta kama, ta kuma tattaka duk abin da ya rage a ƙarƙashin ƙafafunta. Ta bambanta da dukan sauran dabbobin da suka riga ta, tana kuma da ƙahoni goma.
8 I was considering the horns, when lo! another horn, a little one, came up among them, and, three of the former horns, were uprooted from before it, —and lo! eyes, like the eyes of a man, in this horn, and, a mouth, speaking great things.
“Yayinda nake cikin tunani game da ƙahonin nan, a gabana kuwa ga wani ƙaho, ɗan ƙanƙani, wanda ya fito daga cikinsu; kuma an tumɓuke uku daga cikin ƙahonin farko kafin wannan. Wannan ƙaho yana da idanu kamar na mutum da kuma bakin da yake maganganun fariya.
9 I continued looking, until that, thrones, were placed, and, the Ancient of days, took his seat, —whose, garment, like snow, was white, and, the hair of his head, like pure wool, his throne, was flames of fire, his wheels, a burning fire.
“Ina cikin dubawa, “sai aka ajiye kursiyoyi, sai ga wani wanda yake tun fil azal ya zauna a mazauninsa. Rigarsa ta yi fari fat kamar ƙanƙara; gashin kansa sun yi fari kamar ulu. Kursiyinsa kuma harshen wuta, dukan ƙafafun kursiyin masu kama da keken yaƙin, wuta ne.
10 A stream of fire, was flowing on and issuing forth from before him, a thousand thousand, waited upon him and, ten thousand times ten thousand, before him, stood up, —Judgment, took its seat, and, books, were opened.
Kogin wuta yana gudu, yana fitowa daga gabansa. Dubun dubbai sun yi masa hidima; dubu goma sau dubu goma sun tsaya a gabansa. Aka zauna don shari’a, aka kuma buɗe littattafai.
11 I continued looking, then because of the sound of the great words which the horn was speaking, I continued looking, until that the wild beast, was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning of the fire.
“Sa’an nan na ci gaba da kallo saboda kalmomin fariyar da wannan ƙaho yake furtawa. Na yi ta kallo har sai da aka yanke dabbar, aka kuma hallaka jikinta a cikin wuta.
12 As concerning the rest of the beasts, their dominion, was taken away, —but, a lengthening of life, was given to them, until time and season.
(An tuɓe sauran dabbobin daga mulkinsu, amma aka bar su su rayu na wani lokaci.)
13 I continued looking in the visions of the night, when lo! with the clouds of the heavens, one like a son of man, was coming, —and, unto the Ancient of days, he approached, and, before him, they brought him near;
“A wahayina na dare, na ga a gabana wani kamar ɗan mutum yana saukowa tare da gizagizan sama. Ya kusaci Wannan wanda yake Tun fil azal aka kuma kai shi gabansa.
14 and, unto him, were given dominion and dignity and kingship, that all peoples, races and tongues, unto him, should do service, —his dominion, was an age-abiding dominion, which should not pass away, and, his kingdom, that which should not be destroyed.
Aka ba shi mulki, daraja da kuma mafificin iko; dukan mutane, da al’ummai, da mutane daga kowane harshe suka yi masa sujada. Mulkinsa kuwa dawwammamen mulki ne da ba zai ƙare ba, sarautarsa kuma ba ta taɓa lalacewa.
15 The spirit of, me, Daniel, was grieved in the midst of the sheath, —and, the visions of my head, terrified me.
“Ni, Daniyel, ruhuna ya damu ƙwarai, kuma wahayin da ya ratsa tunanina ya dame ni.
16 I drew near unto one of them who stood by, and made exact enquiry of him, concerning all this, —so he told me, and, the interpretation of the things, made he known unto me.
Sai na matsa kusa da ɗaya daga cikin waɗanda suke tsaye a can, na tambaye shi gaskiya ma’anar waɗannan al’amura. “Don haka sai ya faɗa mini, ya kuma ba ni fassarar waɗannan al’amura.
17 These great wild beasts, which are four, —are four kings who shall arise out of the earth;
‘Waɗannan manyan dabbobi huɗu, Masarautai ne huɗu waɗanda za su taso a duniya.
18 but the holy ones of the Highest, shall receive the kingdom, —and shall possess the kingdom for the age, yea for the age of ages.
Amma tsarkaka na Mafi Ɗaukaka za su karɓi wannan sarauta, za su kuwa mallake ta har abada, I, har abada abadin.’
19 Then desired I to be sure, concerning the fourth wild beast, which was diverse from all of them, —exceeding terrible, whose, teeth, were iron, and, his claws, of bronze, he devoured, brake in pieces, and, the residue—with his feet, he trampled down;
“Sa’an nan kuma sai na so in san ma’anar wannan dabba ta huɗu, wadda ta yi dabam da sauran dabbobin da suke da matuƙar bantsoro, da take da haƙoran ƙarfe da kuma farcen tagulla, dabbar ta ragargaje ta cinye abin da ta kama, ta kuma tattaka duk abin da ya rage a ƙarƙashin ƙafafunta.
20 also concerning the ten horns, which were in his head, and the other, which came up, and there fell—from among them that were before it—three, —and this horn which had, eyes, and, a mouth, speaking great things, and, his look, was more proud than his fellows:
Na kuma so in gane game da ƙahonin nan guda goma da suke a kanta da kuma game da ƙahon nan da ya fito, wanda aka tumɓuke ƙahoni uku a gabansa, ƙahon nan da yake da idanu da bakin da yake furta manyan maganganun fariya, wanda ya yi kamar ya fi sauran girma.
21 I continued looking, when, this horn, made war with the holy ones, —and prevailed against them:
Ina cikin dubawa, sai ga wannan ƙaho yana yaƙi da tsarkaka yana kuma cin nasara a kansu,
22 until that the Ancient of Days, came, and, justice, was granted to the holy ones of the Highest, —and, the time, arrived, that the holy ones should possess, the kingdom.
sai da Wannan wanda yake tun fil azal ya zo ya furta hukunci, aka kuma ba tsarkaka na Mafi Ɗaukaka gaskiya, lokaci kuwa ya cika sai suka karɓi mulki.
23 Thus, he said, The fourth wild beast, is a fourth kingdom which shall be in the earth, which shall be diverse from all the kingdoms, —and shall devour all the earth, and shall trample it down, and break it in pieces.
“Sai ya ba ni wannan bayani, ‘Dabbar nan ta huɗu, ita ce mulki na huɗu da zai bayyana a duniya. Zai bambanta da dukan sauran mulkoki, zai kuma cinye dukan duniya, yă tattake ta, yă kuma ragargaje ta.
24 And, the ten horns of that kingdom, are ten kings who will arise, —and, another, will arise after them, and, he, will be diverse from the former ones, and, three kings, will he cast down;
Ƙahonin nan goma, sarakuna ne goma waɗanda za su taso daga wannan mulki. Bayansu kuma, wani sarki zai taso, wanda ya sha dabam da waɗanda suka riga shi. Zai rinjayi sarakunan nan uku.
25 and, words against the Most High, will he speak, and, the holy ones of the Highest, will he afflict, —and will hope to change times and law, and they will be given into his hand, for a season and seasons and the dividing of a season,
Zai yi maganar saɓo a kan Mafi Ɗaukaka, zai kuma tsananta wa tsarkaka yă kuma yi ƙoƙarin sāke lokuta da shari’u. Za a miƙa tsarkaka a hannunsa na wani lokaci, lokuta da kuma rabin lokaci.
26 but, Judgment, will take its seat, —and, his dominion, will they take away, to destroy and make disappear unto an end.
“‘Amma majalisa za tă yi zama, za a karɓe ikonsa, a kuma hallaka shi gaba ɗaya har abada.
27 And, the kingdom, and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under all the heavens, shall be given to the people of the holy ones of the Highest, —his kingdom, is an age-abiding kingdom, and, all the dominions, unto him, will render service, and show themselves obedient.
Sa’an nan za a ba da mulki, iko da girma na mulkokin da suke a ƙarƙashin dukan sammai ga tsarkaka, mutane na Mafi Ɗaukaka. Mulkinsa kuwa mulki ne marar matuƙa, kuma dukan masu mulki za su yabe shi, su kuma yi masa biyayya.’
28 Hitherto is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, greatly did my thoughts terrify me, and, my bright looks, were changed upon me, but, the matter—in mine own heart, I kept.
“Wannan shi ne ƙarshen batun. Ni, Daniyel na damu ƙwarai da irin tunanina, kuma fuskata ta rikice, amma na riƙe batun a zuciyata.”
