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.
Na mobu ya liboso ya bokonzi ya Balitazari, mokonzi ya Babiloni, Daniele alotaki ndoto moko: bimoniseli eyaki na makanisi na ye tango azalaki ya kolala na mbeto na ye. Bongo, akomaki ndoto yango mpe alobaki mama na likambo na yango.
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;
Daniele alobaki: Na emoniseli oyo nazwaki na butu, namonaki mipepe minei kowuta na likolo mpe eningisaki ebale monene.
3 and four large wild beasts, coming up out of the sea, —diverse, one from another: —
Banyama minei ya minene, ekesana yango nyonso, ebimaki wuta na ebale monene.
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.
Nyama ya liboso ezalaki lokola nkosi mpe ezalaki na mapapu lokola mpongo. Wana nazalaki kotala, balongolaki yango mapapu, batombolaki yango longwa na mabele mpo ete etelema na makolo mibale lokola moto; mpe bapesaki yango motema ya moto.
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.
Bongo, namonaki nyama ya mibale: ezalaki lokola ngombolo; etelemaki na moko ya mipanzi na yango mpe ezalaki na mikuwa ya mipanzi misato na kati-kati ya minu ya monoko na yango. Balobaki na yango: « Telema, lia mpe otonda misuni! »
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,
Sima na yango, nakobaki kotala mpe namonaki nyama mosusu: ezalaki lokola nkoyi, mpe mokongo na yango ezalaki na mapapu minei lokola mapapu ya ndeke. Nyama yango ezalaki na mito minei, bongo bapesaki yango bokonzi ya kokamba.
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.
Sima na yango, kati na emoniseli na ngai ya butu, namonaki nyama ya minei: ezalaki somo, ezalaki kobangisa mpe ezalaki na nguya makasi penza. Ezalaki na minu minene ya bibende; ezalaki kolia, kopanzapanza mpe konyata misuni oyo ezalaki kotikala; ekesenaki makasi na banyama nyonso ya liboso mpe ezalaki na maseke zomi.
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.
Wana nazali kotala malamu maseke, namonaki liseke mosusu ya moke kobima kati na maseke wana; bongo maseke misato kati na maseke ya liboso elongwaki liboso ya liseke ya moke oyo ezalaki na miso lokola ya moto mpe monoko oyo ezalaki koloba na lolendo.
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.
Wana nazalaki kotala, namonaki bazali kotanda bakiti ya bokonzi, mpe Mpaka oyo azala liboso ya tango avandaki na moko kati na bakiti yango. Bilamba na Ye ezalaki pembe lokola mvula ya pembe, suki ya moto na Ye ezalaki pembe lokola bapwale ya meme, oyo basukola malamu. Kiti ya Bokonzi na Ye ezalaki lokola moto, mpe bapine na yango ezalaki lokola moto oyo ezali kongala.
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.
Ebale ya moto ezalaki kobima mpe kotambola liboso na Ye. Minkoko ya bato bazalaki kosalela Ye, minkoko ya minkoko ya bato batelemaki liboso na Ye. Basambisi bavandaki, mpe babuku efungwamaki.
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.
Nakobaki kotala mpo na maloba ya lofundu oyo liseke yango ezalaki koloba; mpe wana nazalaki kaka kotala, babomaki nyama yango, nzoto na yango ebebaki mpe babwakaki yango na moto.
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.
Balongolaki bokonzi ya banyama mosusu, kasi babakiselaki yango mikolo ya bomoi kino na tango oyo ekatama.
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;
Kati na bimoniseli na ngai ya butu,
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.
Bapesaki Ye bokonzi, lokumu mpe nguya;
15 The spirit of, me, Daniel, was grieved in the midst of the sheath, —and, the visions of my head, terrified me.
Ngai, Daniele, namitungisaki makasi; mpe bimoniseli oyo eyaki na makanisi na ngai ebangisaki ngai makasi.
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.
Napusanaki pene ya moko kati na ba-oyo batelemaki wana, natunaki ye ndimbola ya solo ya makambo oyo namonaki. Ayanolaki ngai mpe apesaki ngai ndimbola ya makambo wana nyonso:
17 These great wild beasts, which are four, —are four kings who shall arise out of the earth;
— Banyama nyonso minei wana ya minene ezali kolakisa bakonzi minei oyo bakobima na mabele;
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.
kasi basantu ya Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo bakozwa bokonzi mpe bakobatela yango mpo na libela, seko na seko.
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;
Bongo, nalingaki koyeba na bosolo ndimbola ya nyama ya minei oyo ekesenaki makasi na banyama mosusu wana, ezalaki kobangisa makasi, ezalaki na minu ya bibende mpe mbanga ya bronze, ezalaki kolia, kopanzapanza mpe konyata misuni oyo ezalaki etikala.
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:
Nalingaki lisusu koyeba ndimbola ya maseke zomi oyo ezalaki na moto na yango mpe ya liseke mosusu oyo ebimaki, oyo maseke misato kati na maseke wana zomi ekweyaki liboso na yango, oyo ezalaki na miso mpe na monoko oyo ezalaki koloba na lolendo, mpe oyo ezalaki makasi koleka maseke mosusu.
21 I continued looking, when, this horn, made war with the holy ones, —and prevailed against them:
Wana nazalaki kotala liseke yango, namonaki yango kobundisa mpe kolonga basantu
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.
kino tango Mpaka oyo azala liboso ya tango ayaki kobundela basantu ya Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo, mpe kino tango ya kozwa bokonzi ekokoka mpo na bango.
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.
Moto oyo natunaki ndimbola ya ndoto alobaki na ngai: — Nyama oyo ya minei ezali mokonzi ya minei oyo akobima na mabele. Akokesana makasi na babokonzi wana nyonso: akoboma mokili mobimba, akonyata mpe akopanza-panza yango.
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;
Maseke zomi elingi koloba ete bakonzi zomi bakobima na bokonzi oyo. Sima na bango, mokonzi mosusu akobima, akokesana na bakonzi ya liboso mpe akokweyisa bakonzi misato;
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,
akotiola na maloba na ye Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo, akonyokola basantu na Ye, akomeka ata kobongola manaka ya bafeti oyo ekatama mpe mibeko. Basantu bakozala na se ya bokonzi na ye mibu misato na ndambo.
26 but, Judgment, will take its seat, —and, his dominion, will they take away, to destroy and make disappear unto an end.
Kasi bato ya mibeko bakovanda lisanga mpe bakobotola ye bokonzi, mpe bokonzi yango ekokufa mpe ekolimwa libela.
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.
Kasi bokonzi, nguya mpe lokumu ya bikolo oyo ezali na se ya moyi ekopesama na ekolo ya basantu ya Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo. Bokonzi ya ekolo yango ekowumela seko na seko, mpe bakonzi ya bikolo nyonso ya mokili bakosalela mpe bakotosa ekolo yango.
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.
Lisolo ya ndoto na ngai esuki awa. Ngai, Daniele, namitungisaki mingi kati na motema na ngai, elongi na ngai ebebaki na somo mpe nabombaki makambo oyo kati na motema na ngai.
