< Daniel 8 >

1 In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision, appeared unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the beginning.
In yac aktolu ke pacl Belshazzar el tokosra, nga tuh liye aruruma se akluo.
2 So then I saw, in the vision, and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was in Shusan the fortress, which is in Persia the province, —yea I saw it in a vision, when, I, was by the river Ulai.
In aruruma se inge, nga liye mu nga oasr in siti potyak lun Susa in acn Elam. Nga tu sisken Infacl Ulai,
3 So then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and lo! a ram, standing before the river, and, it, had two horns, —and, the two horns, were high, but, the one, was higher than the other, and, the higher, had come up, last.
ac nga liye soko sheep mukul sisken infacl ah, su oasr koac na loeloes lukwa kac. Koac soko ma sikyak tok tuh loes liki ma soko ma sikyak meet.
4 I saw the ram, pushing strongly westward and northward and southward, so that no wild beast could stand before him, and none could deliver out of his hand, —but he did according to his own pleasure, and shewed himself great.
Ac nga liye sheep mukul soko ah sang koacl sinukin acn roto, epang, ac eir. Wangin kosro ku in tulokinilya, ku kaingkunla kuiyal. El oru na oana lungse lal, ac arulana orek funmwet.
5 Now, I, was observing, when lo! a he-goat, coming in out of the west, over the face of all the earth, but it meddled not with the earth, —and, the goat, had a conspicuous horn between his eyes.
Ke nga srike in suk kalmen ma se inge, na nani soko sasma tuku liki acn roto, upala mui lal ah oru nial tiana pusral acn uh. Oasr koac soko tume inmasrlon atronmutal ma arulana kalem.
6 So then he came up to the ram having the two horns, which I had seen, standing before the river, —and ran unto him, in the fury of his strength.
Nani soko ah yume nwe yurin sheep mukul soko ma nga liye tu sisken infacl ah, ac atuyang nu sel ke kuiyal nufon.
7 Yea I saw him coming close upon the ram, and he was enraged at him, and smote the ram, and brake in pieces both his horns, and there was no strength in the ram to stand before him, —but he cast him down to the ground, and trampled him underfoot, and there was none could deliver the ram out of his power.
Nga liye na ke el uni sheep mukul soko ah. Upala kasrkusrak lal, oru el atuyang nu kacl twe koteya koac lukwa ah. Wangin ku lun sheep mukul soko ah in lainul. Toloki el nu infohk uh ac futfutungyuki el, ac wangin sie su ku in molella.
8 But, the he-goat, shewed himself very great, —and, when he had become mighty, the great horn, was broken in pieces, and there came up afterwards four, in its stead, towards the four winds of the heavens;
Nani soko ah yokyokelik na funmwet lal, tusruktu in pacl se na ma yokelik ku lal uh, na kaptelik koac soko kacl ah, na koac akosr sifilpa kapak aolla, ac kais soko koac inge foralik nu epang, eir, kutulap ac roto.
9 and, out of the first of them, came forth a little horn, —which became exceedingly great, against the south and against the east, and against the beautiful [land];
Ac soko koac srisrik srunak liki soko sin koac akosr inge, su kuiyal fahsrelik nwe sun acn eir ac kutulap, ac sun pac Fulan Wuleang.
10 yea it became great as far as the host of the heavens, —and caused to fall, to the earth, some of the host and some of the stars, and trampled them underfoot;
Kuiyal yokyokelik nwe ke na el ku pac in mweun lain un mwet mweun lun kusrao, ac mweuni pac itu uh ac sisla kutu selos nu fin fohk uh, ac longolosi.
11 even as far as the ruler of the host, shewed he his greatness, —and, because of him, was taken away the continual [ascending-sacrifice], and the place of the sanctuary, was cast down;
Na koac srisrik soko ah oru nwe ke na el lain pac Fisrak lun un mwet mweun lun kusrao, ac tulokinya kisa ma orek nu sel ke len nukewa, ac aktaekyala Tempul uh.
12 and, a host, was set over the continual [ascending-sacrifice], by transgression, —and faithfulness, was cast down, to the ground, and so he acted with effect, and succeeded.
Mwet uh orekma koluk in Tempul, ac tila oru mwe kisa ma fal in orek we ke len nukewa uh, ac alu pwaye uh sisila. Koac srisrik soko ah orala nukewa ma el ke oru uh.
13 Then heard I a certain holy one, speaking, —and another holy one said to that certain holy one who was speaking—How long is the vision of the continual [ascending-sacrifice] as taken away, and the transgression which astoundeth, for both sanctuary and host to be given over to be trampled underfoot?
Na nga lohng sie lipufan uh siyuk sin sie pac, “Ma liyeyuk in aruruma se inge ac orek nwe ngac? Ma koluk lulap inge ac eisla acn sin orek kisa uh nwe ngac? Ac lolongyuki un mwet mweun lun kusrao ac Tempul uh nwe ngac?”
14 And he said unto him, Until two thousand and three hundred evening-mornings, —then shall the sanctuary, be vindicated.
Ac nga lohng lipufan se ngia topuk ac fahk, “Ac orek ouinge ke len sie tausin siofok lumngaul, su orala pacl in kisa luo tausin tolfoko ke eku ac lotu, ma wangin kisa ac orek. Toko, na Tempul uh ac fah sifil akmutalyeyuk.”
15 And it came to pass, when, I Daniel, had seen the vision, —and had sought discernment, that lo! there was standing before me, as the appearance of a man.
Nga srike in suk kalmen aruruma se inge, na in kitin pacl ah na sie ma su oana luman mwet se tume nu sik.
16 Then heard I a human voice, between [the banks of] the Ulai, —which cried out, and said, Gabriel! cause this man to understand the revelation.
Nga lohng sie pusra pangme liki Infacl Ulai ac fahk, “Gabriel, fahkak nu sel kalmen aruruma se el liye an.”
17 So he came near where I stood, and, when he came, I was terrified, and fell upon my face, —but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man, that, to the time of the end, belongeth the vision.
Na Gabriel el kaluku ac tu siskuk, na nga arulana sangengla ac putati nu infohk uh. El fahk nu sik, “Mwet sukawil, ne mwet se na pa kom, a nga ke in kalem sum kalmen aruruma uh. Aruruma sac fahkak ke saflaiyen faclu.”
18 And, when he spake with me, I fell stunned upon my face, to the earth, —but he touched me, and caused me to stand up where I was.
Ke el kaskas ah, nga putati nu infohk uh ac nikinyula. Tusruk el sruokyuwi, ac tulokinyuyak,
19 Then said he, Behold me! causing thee to know, that which shall come to pass in the afterpart of the indignation, —for, at an appointed time, shall be an end.
ac fahk, “Nga akkalemye nu sum ma ac sikyak ke sripen kasrkusrak lun God. Aruruma sac fahkak ke ma ac sikyak ke safla lun ma nukewa.
20 The ram which thou sawest, having the two horns, representeth the kings of Media and Persia;
“Sheep mukul soko kom liye ma koac lukwa oan kac ah, pa tokosrai lun Media ac Persia.
21 and, the he-goat, is the king of Greece, —and, the great horn which was between his eyes, the same, is the first king.
Nani soko ah pa tokosrai lun Greece, ac koac soko ma kom tuh liye tume inmasrlon atronmutal ah pa tokosra se emeet uh.
22 Now, as for its being broken in pieces, whereupon there stood up four in its stead, four kingdoms, out of his nation, shall stand up, but not with his strength;
Koac akosr ma kom tuh liye sikyak tukun koac soko meet ah kaptalik ah, kalmac pa ac fah kitakatelik mutunfacl lulap sac nu ke tokosrai akosr, su ac fah tia ku oana kuiyen tokosrai se meet ah.
23 but, in the aftertime of their kingdom, when transgressions, have filled up their measure, —there will stand up a king of mighty presence, and skilful in dissimulation;
“Ke ac apkuran in safla pacl lun tokosrai akosr inge, ac koluk lalos uh arulana yokelik pwanang ac enenu in akkeokyeyuk elos, na ac fah oasr sie pac tokosra sikyak su ac arulana likkeke, kutasrik, ac akmas.
24 and his strength, will be mighty, but not through his own strength, and, wonderfully, will he destroy, and succeed and act with effect, —and will destroy mighty ones, and the people of holy ones;
Ku lal ac fah yokyokelik — tusruktu tia ke ku lal sifacna. Yohk ma el ac fah kunausla, ac ma nukewa el oru ac fah wo ouiyal kac. El ac fah pwanang mwet na yohk ku la in kunausyukla, ac mwet lun God uh ac musalla pac.
25 and, by his cunning, will he both cause deceit to succeed in his hand, and, in his own heart, will he shew himself to be great, and, by their careless security, will he destroy many, —and, against the ruler of rulers, will he stand up, but, without hand, shall be broken in pieces.
Ke sripen kutasrik ac orek fwacfa lal uh, el ac fah eis pac wo ouiya ke inkanek kikiap lal. El ac fah sifacna yukunul ke ma el oru, ac kunausla mwet puspis ke inkanek lukma lal. El ac lain pac Tokosra se ma fulat liki nukewa, tusruktu ac kunausyukla el, tuh tia ke ku lun mwet uh.
26 Now, the revelation of the evening and the morning which hath been told, faithful, indeed it is, —but, thou, close up the vision, because it is for many days.
Aruruma se kom tuh liye ke pacl in kisa in eku ac lotu ma aketeyuki nu sum ah, ac fah pwayena. Tusrktu mansis kom in tia srumun in pacl inge, mweyen ac fah akpwayeiyuk ke pacl na loes fahsru uh.”
27 Now, as for me Daniel, then was I sick for days, but I arose and did the business of the king, —and, though I was confounded concerning the revelation, yet could no one discern it.
Nga arulana toasrla ac mas ke len na pus. Na nga fah tukakek ac folokla nu ke orekma ma tokosra el pakiya nu sik, tusruktu nga fohs na ke aruruma sac, ac tia ku in etu kalmac.
