< Daniel 12 >

1 [The angel also said to me, ] “After those things happen, the great angel Michael, who protects the [Israeli] people, will appear. Then there will be a time when there will be great troubles/suffering. The troubles will be greater than any troubles/suffering since the nations began. At that time, all of your people whose names have been written in the book [containing the names of those who have eternal life] will be saved.
Na tango wana, Misheli, mokambi monene ya ba-anjelu, oyo abatelaka bato na yo akotelema. Ekozala tango ya pasi penza, pasi oyo etikala nanu kozala te wuta bikolo ezala na mokili kino na tango wana. Kasi na tango wana, bato ya ekolo na yo, oyo bakombo na bango ekomonana kati na buku, bakobika.
2 Many of those who have died [EUP] will become alive again. Some of them will live eternally [with God], and some will be eternally shamed/disgraced [in hell]. (questioned)
Ebele ya bato oyo bakundama na se ya mabele bakosekwa: bamoko mpo na bomoi ya seko, mpe mosusu mpo na soni mpe somo ya libela.
3 Those who were wise will shine as brightly as the sky [is bright when the sun is shining]. And those who have shown to others the way to live righteously will shine forever, like the stars [SIM].
Bato oyo batambolaki na bwanya bakongenga lokola pole ya mapata; mpe bato oyo bakolakisa bato ebele nzela ya bosembo, bango mpe bakongenga lokola minzoto libela na libela.
4 But as for you, Daniel, close up the scroll [on which you are writing], and seal it [in order that no one can open it] until the end [of the world] is near. [Before that happens, ] many people will travel rapidly here and there, learning more and more [about many things].”
Kasi yo, Daniele, batela maloba oyo lokola sekele mpe kanga buku kino na tango ya suka. Mingi bakotambola bipai na bipai, mpe boyebi ya bato ekokola makasi. »
5 When [that angel finished speaking], I, Daniel, looked up, and suddenly I saw two other [angels]. One was standing on the side of the river [where I was], and one was standing on the other side.
Boye, wana ngai, Daniele, nazalaki kotala, namonaki bato mibale batelemi liboso na ngai: moko azalaki na ngambo moko ya ebale, mpe mosusu azalaki na ngambo mosusu ya ebale.
6 One of them [called to] the other one, who was wearing linen/white clothes, who was now standing further up (OR, above) the river, “How long will it be until these amazing/frightening events end?”
Moko kati na bango alobaki epai ya moto oyo alataki bilamba ya lino mpe atelemaki likolo ya mayi ya ebale: — Makambo oyo ya kokamwa ekosala tango boni?
7 The angel who was on the other side of (OR, above) the river raised his hands toward the sky, and solemnly promised, with the authority [MTY] of God, who lives forever, “It will be three and a half years. All these things will end after God’s people stop fighting against those who (persecute/cause trouble for/cause suffering for) them.”
Moto oyo alataki bilamba ya lino mpe atelemaki likolo ya mayi ya ebale atombolaki loboko na ye ya mobali mpe loboko na ye ya mwasi na likolo, mpe nayokaki ye kolapa ndayi na Kombo ya Ye oyo azali na bomoi seko na seko: — Ekozala mibu misato na ndambo. Tango nguya ya ekolo ya bule ekosila, makambo oyo nyonso ekokokisama.
8 I heard [what he said], but I did not understand it. So I asked, “Sir, what will be the result when these things end?”
Nayokaki ye, kasi nasosolaki te. Boye, natunaki: — Makambo oyo ekosukela ndenge nini, nkolo na ngai?
9 He replied, “Daniel, you must leave now. [I cannot answer your question] because what it means must (be kept secret/not be revealed) [DOU] until the time when everything ends.
Azongisaki: — Daniele, kende na yo, pamba te maloba oyo ezali sekele, mpe buku na yango ekangama kino na tango ya suka.
10 Many people will thoroughly purify their inner beings [DOU]. But wicked people will not understand these things. They will continue to be wicked. Only those who are wise will understand [these things].
Bato ebele bakopetolama, bakozanga mbeba mpe bakokoma bato ya kokoka; kasi bato mabe bakokoba kaka kosala mabe. Moto moko te ya mabe akososola, kaka bato oyo bakozala na bwanya nde bakososola.
11 [But I can tell you that before everything ends, ] there will be 1,290 days, from the time that people are prevented from offering sacrifices each day, that is, from the time that the abominable/disgusting thing is put in the temple.
Wuta tango oyo bakopekisa kobonza mbeka ya mokolo na mokolo kino tango oyo bakotonga etumbelo mpo na nzambe oyo babengaka Zewusi, ekoleka mikolo nkoto moko na nkama mibale na tuku libwa.
12 God will be pleased with those who remain faithful until 1,335 days are ended.
Tika ete apambolama ye oyo azali kozela kino na suka ya mokolo ya nkoto moko na nkama misato na tuku misato na mitano.
13 So [now I say] to you, continue to faithfully [trust God] until [your life on earth] ends. You will die [EUP], but when everything ends, you will receive your reward [from God].”
Mpo na yo, yika mpiko kino na suka; okopema mpe, na mokolo ya suka, okosekwa mpo na kozwa litomba na yo.
