< Daniel 11 >

1 “As for me, during the first year that Darius was king, I helped and encouraged Michael.”
Keivang, Michael vantil kom’a kading jing in, Meok mi Darius lengchan kal kum masapen’a pat’a, ama pandetna ding leh hatsahna ding’a kigo jing kahi.
2 [The angel also said], “And what I am going to reveal to you now will truly [happen]. There will be three more kings to rule Persia, [one after the other]. Then there will be a fourth king, who will be much richer than the others. As a result of [his giving] a lot of money [to people, they will enable him to] become very powerful. Then he will incite/persuade many nations [HYP] [to fight] against the kingdom of Greece.
Tua hi, keiman naheng’a thudih chu ka phondoh ding ahi. Vetan, Persiate leng thumtah hung lendoh’a, vai ahinpoh ding, chujou leh leng li na pa vang chu, leng masaho sanga nasa tah’a haojo cheh ding ahi. Aman ahaona leh athahatna mangcha-a amitakip atildoh ding chuleh Greek lenggam chung’a gal asat ding ahi.
3 Then a very powerful king will appear [in Greece]. He will rule over a very large empire, and he will do whatever he wants to do.
Chuteng leh, leng hattah khat hung umdoh kit ding, aman thuneitah’a lengvai apoh ding, anop nop abol ding ahi.
4 But when he has become very powerful, [he will die]. Then his kingdom will be divided into four parts. Kings who are not his descendants will rule, but they will not be as powerful as he was.
Amavang, athahat athunei laitah’a, alenggam hungkeh ding, chuleh alenggam chu hopli kiso ding ahi. Ama son le chilhah hilou hon lengvai apoh ding, ahinlah, aman thuneitah’a vai apohlai bang’a, amahon thahat leh thuneina aneilou ding’u ahi. Ajeh chu alengvaipohna chu ajunga kibotdoh’a, midang kipedoh ahitai.
5 Then the King of Egypt [MTY] will become very powerful. But one of his army generals will become more powerful than he is, and he will rule a bigger area.
Chutah leh, lhanglam lengpa hung hatdoh ding, amavang, ama sepai lamkai ho lah’a chu, mikhat ama sang’a hung thaneijo ding chuleh alenglam’a chu hu-ham tah’a vai ahinhop ding ahi.
6 Several years later, the King of Egypt and the King of Syria will make an (alliance/agreement to help each other) [MTY]. The King of Syria will give his daughter to the King of Egypt to become his wife. But she will not be able to influence him [MTY] very long, and that woman, her husband, her child, and her servants will all be killed/assassinated.
Kum phabep jou leh sahlam lengpa leh lhanglam lengpa, hung kihoutoh’a chamna khat asemdoh lhon ding ahi. Kihou chamna suhdetna dinga lhanglam lengpan achanu chu sahlam lengpa jiding a apeh ding. Hijongleh, amanun thuneina ima anei joulou ding chuleh apan jong chutima-a koima athunun jou dehlou ding ahi. Chuleh amanu chu anungjui ho leh apan khompi ho jouse toh kisugam ding ahiuve.
7 Soon after that, one of her relatives [MET] will become King [of Egypt]. His army will attack the army of Syria. They will enter the fortress of the soldiers of Syria and defeat them.
Hijongleh, amanu inkote khat chu lhanggam’a leng hung chang ding, aman asepai tamtah toh sahlam lengpa kulpi anokhum’a asat ding chuleh ajo ding ahi.
8 They will return to Egypt, taking the statues of the gods [of the people of Syria] and many items made of silver and gold that had been dedicated to those gods. Then for several years his army will not attack [the army of] the King of Syria.
Ama Egypt gam’a akilekit teng, amaho doilim semthu jouse apoh mang ding, chuleh sana leh dangka-a kisem thil manlu tampi jong apohmang tha ding ahi. Chujou teng, kum phabeppi sung’a sahlam lengpa chu kisatpi talouva amachang adalhah ding ahi.
9 Then the army of the King of Syria will invade Egypt, but they will soon return to Syria.
Chujou tengleh, sahlam lengpa chu lhanggam lengpa gamsung’a hung lut’a gal ahin sat khum ding ahi. Hijongleh ama agam lang’a kinungle kitloi ding ahi.
10 However, the sons of the King of Syria will prepare to start a war, and they will gather a large army. That army will march [south] and spread all over [Israel] like a huge flood. They will attack a strong fortress [in the south of Israel].
Ahivangin, sahlam lengpa chapaten sepai tampi asem dohkit diu, asepaiho chutoh twisoh bang’a hamgei guija lhanggam lengpa kulpi geija, gal asat khum ding ahi.
11 Then the King of Egypt, having become very angry, will march [with his army north] from Egypt and fight against the army of Syria. The King [of Syria] will gather together a very large army, but [the army of the King of Egypt] will defeat them.
Chutahleh lhanggam lengpa chu lungsa doh ding, sahlam lengpa sepai ho chutoh kisat ding chuleh aman agalmite chu abon’a ajosoh hel ding ahi.
12 The King of Egypt will become very proud because of [his army] having killed a very large number of soldiers [from Syria], but his army will not continue to win battles.
aman agalmite sepaiho abon’a adelmangsoh phatleh, lhanggam lengpa chu alungsung’a kichoisangna leh kiletsahna hung dim ding chuleh agalmite chu asang asangsom’a athagam ding ahi. Hijong leh, agaljona chu phat chomkhat’a ding bou hiding ahi.
13 The King of Syria will again gather together an army that will be bigger than the one that he had before. After a few years, he will again march [south on their way to Egypt] with a large army and a lot of equipment [for fighting battles].
Ajeh chu kum phabep jouleh sahlam lengpan jong amasa sang’a tamjo sepai akhop kitding, asepaiho chutoh thil ijakai ninglhing set’a hung konsuh kit ding ahi.
14 At that time, many people in Egypt will rebel against their king. In order to fulfill a vision that [one of their leaders had seen], some violent/lawless people from your country [of Israel] will also rebel [in order to not be controlled by Egypt any more], but they will be defeated.
Hichepet hileh, agamsung mipi tamtah'in lhanggam lengpa chu adou diu ahi. Chuleh hiche gaova nathilmu chengse hi aguilhunna ding’a, namite lah’a pumhat jeng’a thilbol mihon jong lengpa douna gal asat dingu ahi. Hijong leh amahon gal chu ajo lou diu ahibouve.
15 Then the King of Syria will come [south with his army] and pile up dirt against the walls of a city that is well protected, and they will [break through those walls and] they will capture the city. The soldiers from Egypt [who have come to defend that city], even the best troops, will not be strong enough to continue to fight.
Chutah leh, sahlam lengpa chu hungkon intin, dettah’a pal kikaikhum kulpi umna khopi jeng jong anokhum’a alahding ahi. Hiche phatleh, lhanglam gam’a sepai ahatlai lai ho jeng jong amasanga pang joulou diu ahi, ajeh chu ama nan jou nading tha anei lou diu ahitai.
16 So the King of Syria will do whatever he wants to, and no one will be able to oppose him. [His army] will occupy the glorious land [of Israel] and completely control/subdue it.
Chuteng sahlam lengpa chu adou jou ding beihel’a hung machal ding, anop nop abol’a koiman akhamtang joulou ding ahitai. Aman Israel gamloupi chu achotpha-a asuhmang gotding chuleh athu noija akoi ding ahi.
17 Then he will decide to march [south] with all the soldiers from his kingdom. He will make an alliance with the King [of Egypt] and in order that his own daughter will [help him to] destroy the kingdom of Egypt, he will give her to the King of Egypt to become his wife. But that plan will fail.
Aman alenggam thahatna pumpi chutoh hungkon’a, lhanggam lengpa toh kimaito’a kihouchamna agonding ahi. Chuleh aman alenggam suhmang peh nading a achanu chu lhanggam lengpa ji dinga agon ding, ahivanga, athilgon ho abon’a losam ding ahi.
18 After that, the [army of] the King of Syria will attack the regions that are close to the [Mediterranean] Sea, and his [army] will conquer many of them. But [the army of] a leader from another country will defeat the army of Syria and will stop their king from continuing to be proud. He will do to the King of Syria what he deserved for being very insolent.
Hiche ban’a chu, aman twikhanglen pang’a gamho ahin lunglutpi ding, gal abolkhum kit ding chuleh khopi tampi alah ding ahi. Ahivang in, gamdang sepai lamkai khat in, hichea hi, lengpa kiloupisahna ho chu achaina ahin semding chuleh jumleh ja thoh’a akinungle sah ding ahi.
19 Then the King of Syria will return to the fortresses in his own land. But he will be defeated, and he will (die/be assassinated) [EUP] there.
Hitia chu, aman agamsung’a akiselna kulpi chu anung jot kit ding chuleh kimukit talou ding ahitai.
20 Then another man will (succeed him/become king). That king will send one of his officers to oppress the people [in Jerusalem] by forcing them to pay big taxes, in order to get more money for his kingdom. But after a few years [HYP] that king will die, but he will not die as a result of people being angry with him or in a battle.
Chutah leh, ama ban’a lengkhat hunglen doh ding, ama chun leng Inpi loupina dia, mipitea kon’a kai dong ding vaipo asolding ahi. Hijong leh, amahin phat chomcha lengvai apoh ding, chujou leh, lunghan jeh leh gal kisat jeh hilouva, amahi kisumang ding ahi tai.
21 The next King of Syria will be an evil man who, [because he will not be the son of the previous king, ] will not have the right to become king. But he will come when people do not expect it, and he will become king by tricking the people.
Ama ban’a hi, duhdah lou migilou khat, lengpa son leh chilhah jong hilou khat, lengvaipo’a hung pang ding ahi. Aman alep lep’a thu asei ding chuleh duha thutah’a thilgon aneiding, mihon agellou pettah’a, lenggam thaneina chu alah ding ahi.
22 When his army advances, they will attack any armies that oppose him and destroy those armies. They will also kill God’s Supreme Priest.
Ama masang’a sepai tamtah kitheh ngim ding, kisumang hel ding chuleh kitepna leng chapa geija kisumang ding ahi.
23 By making treaties/alliances with [the rulers of] other nations, he will deceive them, and he will become very powerful, even though he rules a nation that does not have a lot of people.
Aman jouleh nal aseija kitepna abol ding, chuleh kichamna tampi asemdoh ding ahi.
24 Suddenly his [army] will invade a province that is very wealthy, and they will do things that none of his ancestors did: they will capture in battles all kinds of possessions from the people whom they defeat. Then the king will divide those possessions among his friends. He will also plan [for his army] to attack fortresses [in Egypt], but only for a short time.
Gihsalna neimasa louva, gamsunga leipha laipen munho aholdoh ding, apu apaten anabol khah louhel abol ding ahi. Aman mihaosa ho neileh gou alah peh’a athe thang ding, anung juiho ahoppeh ding, chuleh kulpi detlai lai ho suhset nading thilgon aneiding ahi. Ahi vanga, athilbol jouse phat chomkhat kah’a ding bou hiding ahi.
25 He will courageously/boldly conscript/gather a large and powerful army to attack [the army of] the king of Egypt. But the King of Egypt will prepare to fight against them with a huge and powerful army. However, someone will deceive him, with the result that his plan will not be successful.
Chujou teng, ama hung kitil doh ding, lhanggam lengpa douna-a sepai tampi asemdoh ding chuleh amaho chutoh gal kisat ding, ahivanga, aman ajolou ding ahi. Ajeh chu, ama suhmangna dinga thilgon aguh’a tampi umdoh ahi tai.
26 Even his most trusted advisors will plan to get rid of him. His army will be defeated and many of his soldiers will be killed.
Ama insung miten, ama manthahna aboldoh ding, a sepaite abon’a kitheh ngim ding chuleh mi tampin thina ato ding ahi.
27 Then the two [kings who both want to rule that area] will sit down at the same table and eat together, but they will both lie to each other. Neither of them will get what he wants, because it will not be the time [that God] has determined/set [for them to rule Egypt].
Hiche leng teni hin, thildang boipi louva, amani kah’a kisuhmang to nading bou agellhon ding, chuleh kihouchamna ankong phung jeng’a jong thujouva kilhem lhon ding ahi. Amavang aphachom imacha umdoh dehlou ding, ajeh chu, Pathen phat tepsa bang’a achaina chu thou thou ding ahi.
28 [The army of] the King [of Syria] will return to Syria, taking with them all the valuable things [that they had captured]. The king will be determined to get rid of the Supreme Priest of the Jewish people. He will do what he wants to [in Israel], and then return to his own country.
Chuteng, sahlam lengpa chu, nei leh gou tampi akipoh’a agam’a kilekit ding ahi; ama hin, kitepna theng nam mite douna anop nop abol ding, chuleh agamsung jong asuhgep’a adalhah ding ahi.
29 When it is the time that God has decided, the King of Syria [and his army] will invade Egypt again. But this time he will not be successful like he was before.
Chuleh, achaina phat kitep chu ahung lhin tengleh, ama hung kilekit’a, lhanggam lengpa chu gal abolkhum kit ding ahi. Amavang, hiche hi, masang a agalbol tobang’a hungsoh talou ding ahitai.
30 The army of Rome will come in ships and oppose his army and cause him to be afraid. So he will be very angry, and [with his army] he will return [to Israel] and try to get rid of the Supreme Priest. The King of Syria will do what those who have abandoned the Jewish religion advise/want him to do for them.
Ajeh chu, lhumlam twipi pang’a kon’a, kong-innei tampi ama doudinga hungkon diu, hichun ama akichatsah ding, lung himo tah’a agam lang’a kilekit ding ahi. Aman hichea alunghanna chu kitepna theng mite chung a achuhsah ding, chuleh kitepna donselou miho chu akihoutheipi ding, amaho toh pangkhom diu ahi.
31 Some of his soldiers will do things to (defile the temple/cause the temple to become unholy for them). They will prevent the priests from offering sacrifices each day, and they will put [in the temple] something that is disgusting/abominable.
Chutahleh, ama sepaiten, houin kulpi alodiu, asuhthang’uva asuhbohdiu, tanglouva kiboljing kilhaina gamtha jong asuhtangdiu chuleh thet umtah milimdoi chu atundoh diu ahi.
32 By deceiving those who have abandoned the Jewish religion, he will persuade them to (become his supporters/help him to do what he wants to do). But those who are devoted to their God will firmly oppose them.
Aman kitepna sukeh ho chu jou leh nal’a ajollhah’a. amaho kithopina amu ding ahi. Hijong leh, Pathen hejing mite vang chu dettah’a pang’uva, ama chu akisatpi diu ahi.
33 And wise [Israeli] leaders will teach others also. But for a while, some of those wise leaders will be killed in battles, and some will be burned to death, and some will be robbed, and some will be put in prison.
Mipi lamkai chingtah ho chun, miho chu ahil uva ahetthemsah diu, hijong leh amaho vang chu meiya kihallih loi, chemjam’a kithat loi, chuleh konkhat chu achomuva songkul tangden loi, um ding ahiuve.
34 While God’s people are being persecuted, some people will help them a little bit, although some of those who help them will not do it sincerely.
Hiche bolgenthei naphat sunga hi, Pathen miten panpina themcha amu diu, ahivanga miho chun amaho chu, lungtho nei pum’a akivoppi diu ahi.
35 Some of those wise leaders will be killed [EUP], but as a result the others will be purified [DOU]. This suffering will continue until it is the time [that God] has appointed [for it to] end.
Chuleh lamkai miching phabep vang chu, bolgentheina jal’a pang joulou umdiu ahi. Hitia chu, achaina phat kitepsa alhinkah sea chu, amahohi kisutheng’uva chuleh kithenso jing diu ahi. Ajeh chu, achaina phat tep chu, vatjep nalai ahi.
36 The King [of Syria] will do what he wants to. He will boast and say that he is greater than any god. He will even revile the Supreme God. He will be able to do what he wants until the time that [God] punishes [MTY] him. [God] will accomplish what he has planned.
Chutia chu, lengpan ama nop nop abol ding, amatah kichoisanga chuleh ama chu Pathen ho sang’a loupijo’a kisei ding, chuleh Pathen jong ataitom ding ahi. Ama lolhinna leh loupina hi chomkhat kah’a dingbou hiding, hichu Pathen lungsatna phat kitep hunglhin kah’a dingbou ahi. Ajeh chu, Pathen thutepsa chu thonlouva lhung tei ding ahi.
37 The [King of Syria] will ignore the god that his ancestors worshiped and the god that many women love. He will ignore every god, because he will think that he is greater than all of them.
Aman apute apate doi- pathen ho chu donlouva akoiding, chuleh numeiten akhohsah pen’u doi-pathen jong donlouva akoiding ahi. Ajeh chu, ama chu pathen ho sang’a loupijo’a kigel ahitan, pathen houna kiti poupou chu apum donlou ding ahitai.
38 But he will honor the god who [people think] protects fortresses. That is a god whom his ancestors did not honor. And he will give gold, silver, (jewels/very valuable stones) and other expensive gifts to that god.
Hiche seh hilouva, apu apaten anahet khahlou, kulpi ngah pathen chu aman ahou ding, song mantam leh sana-dangka chuleh manlutah tah thilpeh ho apeh’a ajabol ding ahi.
39 He will ask that god (OR, people who worship a god) from another country to help him to defend his fortresses. He will greatly honor those who allow him [to be their ruler]. He will appoint [some of] them to important positions in the government; and to reward them, he will give them some land.
Hiche gamdang doi-pathen toh pangkhom kahi tia asei ding, kulpi detlai jouse anokhum ding ahi. Chuleh ama heng’a hung kipelut miho chu ajabol ding, amaho chu gamkai ahoppeh’a, thunei vaihom’a apansah ding ahi.
40 But when his time [to rule] is almost ended, [the army of] the King of Egypt will attack his [army]. The [army of the] King of Syria will fight against them furiously [SIM]. [His soldiers will be driving] chariots and [riding on] horses and [traveling in] many ships. His army will invade many countries and [spread all over those countries] like a flood [MET].
Chuteng, achaina phat alhinteng leh, lhanglam lengpan sahlam lengpa chu gal abol khum ding ahi. Hijongleh, sahlam lengpan, sakol kangtalai tamtah leh sakol sepai tamtah toh chuleh kong-innei tamtah toh kitho’a, chingpei bang’a lhanglam lengpa ahin nokhum ding ahi. Chuleh aman gam chom chom jong ahinjotpa-a, twipi hungsoh bang’a ahin lekhup ding ahi.
41 They will invade the glorious land [of Israel] and kill [EUP] tens of thousands of people. But the people of the Edom people-group and the people of the Moab people-group and the people of the Ammon people-group who are still alive will escape.
Chuleh ama chu Israel gamloupia hunglut ding, nam chom chom ho a-angsung’a lhulham dingu, ahivanga Moab mite, Edom mite chuleh gamlailung’a cheng Ammon mite ho vang, kihuhdoh diu ahi.
42 When the army of Syria invades other countries, even the people of Egypt will be defeated.
Aman gam tampi ahin lahding, chuleh Egypt gamsung jeng jong hoidohlou ding ahi.
43 The army of Syria will take away from Egypt gold, silver, and other valuable items. The people of Libya and Ethiopia will allow [the King of Syria] to rule over them.
Sana leh dangka jouse chunga aman thunei vaihomna aneiding chuleh Egypt gamsunga neileh gou jouse chunga jong vai ahomding ahi. Chuleh Libya mite leh Ethiopia mite chunga vai ahom ding, amaho chu asoh’a pangdiu ahi.
44 But he will become very frightened/alarmed when he hears reports about what is happening in the east and in the north. So he will become very angry, and send his army to fight furiously and kill many [of their enemies].
Ahinlah, niso lam’a konleh sahlam’a kon’a thu hung kithang chun ama akichatsah ding, chuleh, hiche jeh’a chu, ama lunghang tah’a mi tampi thatgam dingleh sumang ding’a, hungkon doh ding ahi.
45 The [King of Syria] will set up his royal tents in the area between the [Mediterranean] Sea and the hill [in Jerusalem] on which the temple (exists/was built). But he will be killed there, because there will be no one to help him.”
Aman, loupitah lhangtheng leh twipi kikah’a chu ngahmun asem ding, aleng ponbuh loupi chu ason ding ahi. Ahivangin, chulai mun’a aumpet’a chu, ama dinga aphat kichaina hung lhung ding, koiman ama chu apanhu jou lou ding ahi.
