Daniel 8
1 During the third year that Belshazzar was the King [of Babylonia], I had another vision.
Ode udiana amoga Belesia: sa da Besia soge amoga hina bagade esalu, amo odega na da simasia eno ba: i.
2 In that vision I was in Susa, the capital city of Elam Province. I was [standing] alongside the Ulai Canal.
Amo simasi ganodini, na da moilai bai bagade afae ea dio amo Susa (amo da Ila: me soge ganodini dialu) amo ganodini esalebe ba: i. Na da hano amo ea dio Iulai amo ea bega: esalebe ba: i.
3 I looked up and saw a ram that was standing alongside the canal. It had two [long] horns, but the newest one was longer than the other one.
Na sodolaloba, sibi gawali afae hano amo gadenene lelebe ba: i. E da hono aduna sedadedafa gala. Be hono afae ea sedade da eno ea defei baligi amola amo hono da gaheabolodafa ba: i.
4 The ram butted/knocked away [with its horns] everything that was west and everything that was north and everything that was south of it. There were no [other] animals that were able to oppose it, and none that could rescue/save [other animals] from its power. The ram did whatever it wanted to do and became very powerful.
Na ba: laloba, sibi gawali da nimiwane haimanosa hamafelalebe ba: i. E da guma: goe amola ga (north) amola ga (south) amoga haimanosa hamafelalebe ba: i. E da gasa fi bagade ba: i. Eno ohe fi da ema gegemu amola ea logo hedofamu hamedei ba: i. Amola ea gasa fi heda: le, hisu hi hanaiga hamomusa: dawa: lalu.
5 While I was thinking [about what I had seen, in the vision] I saw a goat come from the west. It ran across the land so quickly, that [it seemed like] its feet did not touch the ground. This goat had one very large horn between its eyes.
Na da amo hou ea bai bagade dadawa: laloba, goudi gebo gawali eno da hehenane eso dabe gudu fisili manebe ba: i. E da hedolodafa hehenabeba: le, ea emo da gado osoba gudu noga: le hame osa: i. Ea si amo dogoa da hono afae bagadedafa amo dialebe ba: i.
6 It was very angry, and it ran [straight] toward the ram that I had seen [previously, the ram] that was standing alongside the canal.
Amo goudi gawali da sibi gawali, amo na da hano bega: lelebe ba: i, amoma doagala: musa: , ha: giwane hehenai.
7 The goat struck the ram furiously and broke off its two horns, with the result that the ram was unable [to defend itself]. [So] the goat knocked the ram down and trampled on it. No one could rescue the ram from the goat’s power.
Na ba: loba, goudi gawali da sibi gawali amoma doagala: i. E da nimi bagadedafa. Gasa bagade gegebeba: le, e da sibi gawali amo ea hono aduna goudane fasi. Sibi gawali da gasa hameba: le, bu gegemu gogolei. Goudi amo ea gasaga, e da osoboga gisalugala: gudui ba: i. Amalalu goudi da ema bagade ososa: gi, amola enoga gaga: mu da hamedafa ba: i.
8 The goat became very powerful. But when its power was very great, its horn was broken off. But four [other] large horns took its place. They each pointed in a different direction.
Amalalu, goudi gawali ea gasa da heda: le, bagadedafa ba: i. Be ea gasa da baligili bagade heda: lalu, amo esoga, ea hono amo ea si dogoa sogebi dialu, amo fi dagoi ba: i. Be amo hono ea musa: sogebi amoga hono biyaduyale heda: lebe ba: i. Amo hono da hisu hisu sogiagai. Afae da eso mabadili, eno da eso dabadili, eno da gadili, eno da ganodini, agoane sogia gagai ba: i.
9 [Then] from one of those [large horns] appeared a little horn, which became very big, [and pointed] toward the south and [then] toward the east and [then] toward the beautiful land [of Israel].
Hono afae amoga eno gaheabolo hono da dulu heda: lebe ba: i. Amo hono ea gasa da ga (south) amola eso mabadili asi. E amola, soge amo Gode da Ea fi dunu ilima imunu ilegele sia: i, amo sogega hina bagade ba: i.
10 [The man who was represented by] that horn became very strong, with the result that he attacked some of the [soldiers of the] army of heaven, and (OR, meaning) the stars in the sky [which represented God’s people]. He threw some of them to the ground and trampled on them.
Ea gasa da bagade heda: iba: le, e da fedege Hebene dadi gagui gilisisu (gasumuni gilisisu) ilima gegemusa: defele ba: i. E da gasumuni mogili fadegale osoboga galagale, ilima osa: gili gugunufinisi.
11 He (defied/considered himself to be greater than) the leader of the army [of heaven], and prevented [priests from] offering sacrifices to him. He also (defiled the temple/caused the temple to become unholy).
Amola e da Hebene dadi gagui gilisisu amo ilia Hina Bagade Ema gegemusa: dawa: i galu. Hina Bagadema eso huluane gobele salasu hou, amo e da hedofai amola e da Debolo diasu gugunufinisi dagoi.
12 Then God’s people allowed the [man who was represented by] that horn to control/rule them, with the result that they sinned by offering sacrifices to him. And he threw to the ground the [laws that contained the] true religion. Everything that he did was successful.
Amalalu, Debolo diasu amoga dunu amola uda da gobele salasu houdafa amo fisili, ilia Debolo ganodini wadela: i hou fawane hamosu. Godema dafawaneyale dawa: su houdafa da yolesi dagoi ba: i. Amola gaheabolo hono da hi hanai hou amo hahawane didili hamonanu.
13 Then I heard two angels who were talking to each other. One of them asked, “How long will the things/events that were in this vision continue? How long will the man who rebels against God and causes [the temple] to be defiled be able to prevent [priests from] offering sacrifices? How long will he trample on the temple and on the armies of heaven?”
Amalalu, na nabaloba, a:igele dunu afae da eno a: igele dunuma amane adole ba: i, “Goe hou wadela: lesibi amo ninia wali ba: sa. Amo da adi esoga fisima: bela? Habowali seda eso huluane noga: i gobele salasu hou da fisili, ilia da wadela: i hou fawane hamoma: bela: ? Amola hono gaheabolo da Hebene dadi gagui gilisisu amola Debolo amoga osa: la heda: lala. Amo hou da adi esoga fisima: bela?”
14 The other angel replied, “[It will continue] for 1,150 days. During all of that time, [people will not be permitted to offer sacrifices] in the morning or in the evening. After that, the temple will be purified.”
Amola na nabaloba, a:igele dunu eno da bu adole i, “Amo hou da daeya amola hahabe idi 2300agoane ba: lalumu. Amoga, hahabe amola daeya gobele salasu hou da hame ba: mu. Be amo eso da dagolalu, Debolo da bu gagui amola gobele salasu da bu hahawane hamonanebe ba: mu,” a: igele da eno a: igelema amane sia: i.
15 While I, Daniel, was trying to understand what the vision meant, suddenly [an angel] who resembled a man stood/appeared in front of me.
Na da amo simasi dadawa: lalu amola bai hogolaloba, na da hedolodafa na midadini dunu afae lelebe ba: i.
16 And I heard a man call out from [the other side of] the Ulai Canal, saying, “Gabriel, explain to him the meaning of the vision [that he saw]!”
Amola na nabaloba, sia: afae amo da Iulai hano na: iyadodili amoga manebe nabi, amane, “Ga: ibaliele! Amo dunuma di da ea simasi ba: i liligi ea bai ema olelema!”
17 So Gabriel came and stood beside me. I was very terrified, with the result that I fell onto the ground. But he said to me, “You human, it is necessary for you to understand that [the events that you saw in] the vision will occur [near] the time that [the world] will end.”
Ga: ibaliele da nama misini, na afodili dafulili lelu. Na da bagade beda: iba: le, osobaga diasa: i. Ga: ibaliele da nama amane sia: i, “Osobo bagade dunu di! Na da simasi ea bai dima olelemu. Amo simasi da hobea soge wadela: mu eso doaga: lalu hamomu olelesa.”
18 While he was speaking, I fainted. I lay there, unconscious, with my face still on the ground. But Gabriel put his hand on me and lifted me up in order that I could stand again.
E da nama adolaloba, na da osobaga sidinasa: i dagoi. Be amomane e da na lobolele, bu wa: lesi.
19 Then he said, “I [have come here to] tell you what will happen because of [God] being angry. These things will happen near the time when [the world] will end.
Amola e da amane sia: i, “Na da hobea misunu hou dima olelesa. Gode da wadela: i hou amoma ougiba: le, E da fofada: nanu, soge wadela: mu eso da doaga: mu. E da amo hou dima olelesa. Dia simasi ea ba: i da amo.
20 As for the ram with two horns that you saw, those horns [represent] the kingdoms of Media and Persia.
Sibi gawali hono aduna gala di ba: i, amo da fedege sia: , osobo bagade fi aduna ela hou olelesa. Amo fi ela dio da Midia amola Besia.
21 The goat [that you saw represents] the kingdom of Greece, and the horn that appeared between its eyes [represents] its first king.
Goudi di ba: i amo da fedege Galigi fi olelesa. Hono bagade amo goudi ea si dogoa sogebi galu da Galigi hina bagade age.
22 As for the four horns that grew after the first horn was broken off, they [represent] four kingdoms into which that first kingdom will be divided [after the first king dies]. Those four kingdoms will not be as strong/powerful as the first kingdom was.
Hono biyaduyale gala, amo da musa: hono goudane fadegaiba: le eno heda: i, amo ea dawaloma: ne da musa: fi da afafane fi biyaduyale bu hamomu. Be afafaeba: le, ilia gasa da musa: fi ea gasa amo defele hame be gudu agoane ba: mu.
23 The people [in those kingdoms] will become very wicked, with the result that it will be necessary for them to be punished. But near the time when those kingdoms will end, one of those kingdoms will have a king who will be very proud/defiant [IDM]. He will [also] be very fierce and very deceitful.
Amo fi biyaduyale da wadela: i hou bagadedafa hamomu. Ilia da Gode Ea fofada: su amola se imunu ba: mu agoai galebe. Amo eso da gadenesea, eno hina bagade da heda: mu. Ea hou da nimi bagade, gasa fi amola hohonosu ba: mu.
24 He will become very powerful, but it will not be because of what he himself does. He will terribly destroy things in many places, and he will succeed in doing everything that he wants to. He will get rid of [many] powerful men, and [also] some of God’s people.
E da gasa bagade heda: mu. Be hisu ea gasaga hame heda: mu. E da liligi amola fi huluane hahawane gugunufinisimu amo ea wadela: i hawa: hamosu huluane didilisimu. E da gasa bagade dunu bagohame wadela: lesimu amola e da Gode Ea fidafa dunu gugunufinisimu.
25 Because he is very cunning/clever, he will succeed by doing things that deceive many people. He will be proud of himself. He will destroy many people when they think that they are safe. He will also rebel against [God] [EUP], who is the greatest king. But [God] will destroy him, without the help [MTY] of any human being.
E da ogogosu hou amola hohonosu hou amo bagade dawa: beba: le, e da ogogosu bagade hahawane hamomu. E da hi hou bagadewane hidale gaguia gadomu. Amola dunu amola uda ilia da noga: le esalumu dawa: lalu, e da hedolodafa amo huluane wadela: lesimu. Amola e da Baligili Bagadedafa Hina Gode, Ema gegemusa: dawa: mu. Be osobo bagade dunu ilia gasaga hame, be Gode Ea gasaga, e da gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu.
26 What you saw in the vision about [priests being prevented from making] sacrifices in the morning and in the evening, which [I] explained [to you], will surely happen. But [for the present time], do not reveal the vision [to others], because it will be many years before those things happen.”
Amo simasi da daeya amola hahabe gobele salasu amoma hobea misunu hou olelesa, amo da dafawane ba: mu. Be wahadafa, amo hou mae adole, wamolegema. Bai amo hou da waha hame be fa: nodafa ba: mu!”
27 Then I, Daniel, became weak, and I was sick for several days. Then I arose and [returned to] doing the work that the king [had given to me], but I was perplexed/confused about the vision, and I could not understand it.
Na da amo sia: nababeba: le, da: i dioi galu. Amola eso mogili na da oloi galu. Amalalu, oloi da damunuba, na wa: legadole, bu hawa: hamosu amo hina bagade da nama ilegei, amo hamomusa: asi. Be na da simasi amo bu dadawa: lalu. Be amomane, amo ea bai na da noga: le hame dawa: i.
