< Daniel 8 >
1 During the third year that Belshazzar was the King [of Babylonia], I had another vision.
Sannaddii saddexaad oo boqornimadii Boqor Beelshaasar ayaa riyo ii muuqatay anigan Daanyeel ah, taasuna way ka dambaysay tii markii hore ii muuqatay.
2 In that vision I was in Susa, the capital city of Elam Province. I was [standing] alongside the Ulai Canal.
Oo wax baan riyadii ku arkay, oo haddaba saas bay ahayd in markaan riyada arkay aan joogay daartii weynayd oo ku tiil Shuushan oo ku jirtay gobolka Ceelaam; oo riyadii baan haddana arkay oo waxaan ag joogay Webi Uulay.
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.
Markaasaan indhahaygii kor u qaaday, oo waxaan arkay wan laba gees leh oo webiga hortiisa taagan; oo labada geesna way dheerdheeraayeen, laakiinse mid baa ka dheeraa midka kale; oo kii dheeraa baa markii dambe soo baxay.
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.
Oo waxaan arkay wankii oo wax u riixaya xagga galbeed iyo xagga woqooyi, iyo xagga koonfureed, oo bahalna ma hor istaagi karin, mana jirin mid gacantiisa wax ka bixin karay; laakiinse siduu doonayay ayuu yeeli jiray, wuuna isweyneeyey.
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.
Oo intii aan ka fiirsanayay ayaa waxaa galbeed ka yimid orgi, wuxuuna kor maray dhulka dushiisa oo dhan, dhulkana ma uusan taaban: orgiguna wuxuu labada indhood dhexdooda ku lahaa gees weyn.
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.
Oo wuxuu u yimid wankii labada gees lahaa oo aan arkay, isagoo webiga hortiisa taagan, kolkaasuu ku orday isagoo aad u cadhaysan.
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.
Oo waxaan arkay isagoo wankii u soo dhowaaday, aad buuna ugu xanaaqay, oo wankii buu hardiyey, labadiisii geesna wuu ka jebiyey. Wankiina ma lahayn xoog uu iskaga celiyo, laakiinse dhulkuu ku tuuray, wuuna ku tuntay, mana jirin mid wanka orgiga ka samatabbixin karaa.
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.
Markaasaa orgigii aad iyo aad isu weyneeyey, oo markuu aad xoog u yeeshay ayaa geeskii weynaa ka jabay; markaasaa beddelkiisii waxaa u soo baxay afar gees oo waaweyn oo u jeeday samada afarteeda jaho.
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].
Markaasaa midkood waxaa ka soo baxay gees yar oo aad ugu weynaaday xagga koonfureed iyo xagga bari, iyo xagga waddankii quruxda lahaa.
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.
Oo xataa wuu ka xoog weynaaday ciidanka samada, markaasuu ciidankii qaarkiis iyo xiddigihii qaarkood dhulka ku soo tuuray, wuuna ku tuntay.
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).
Oo weliba wuu ka sii xoog weynaaday amiirkii ciidanka, oo wuxuu ka qaaday qurbaankii la gubanayay oo joogtada ahaa, oo meeshiisii quduuska ahaydna hoos baa loo tuuray.
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.
Markaasaa ciidankii iyo qurbaankii joogtada ahaaba isagii la siiyey, waxaana loo siiyey xadgudub, markaasuu runtii dhulka ku soo tuuray, wuxuu sameeyey ayuuna ku barwaaqoobay.
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?”
Dabadeedna waxaan maqlay mid quduus ah oo hadlaya, markaasaa mid kale oo quduus ahu wuxuu ku yidhi kii hadlay, Ilaa goormay ahaan doontaa riyada ku saabsan qurbaanka joogtada ah, iyo xadgudubka wax baabbi'iya, si meesha quduuska ah iyo ciidankaba loogu tunto?
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.”
Markaasuu igu yidhi, Ilaa laba kun iyo saddex boqol oo fiid iyo subax, dabadeedna meesha quduuska ah waa la nadiifin doonaa.
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.
Oo markaan anigoo Daanyeel ah arkay riyadii ayaan doondoonay inaan garto, oo bal eeg, waxaa i soo hor istaagay wax nin u eg.
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]!”
Oo nin codkiis ayaan ka dhex maqlay Webi Uulay wuuna dhawaaqay, oo yidhi, Jibriilow, ninkan riyada garansii.
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.”
Sidaas daraaddeed ayuu u soo dhowaaday meeshii aan taagnaa, oo markuu yimid waan baqay, wejigaanna u dhacay, laakiinse wuxuu igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, garo, waayo, riyada waxaa leh wakhtiga ugudambaysta.
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.
Oo intuu ila hadlayay ayaan hurdo aad u weyn la dhacay anigoo wejiga dhulka ku hayo, laakiinse isagii baa i taabtay oo i sara joojiyey.
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.
Oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan ku ogeysiinayaa waxa ahaan doona wakhtiga ugu dambaysta ee cadhada, waayo, waxaa leh wakhtiga la ballamay ee ugu dambaysta ah.
20 As for the ram with two horns that you saw, those horns [represent] the kingdoms of Media and Persia.
Wankii aad aragtay oo labada gees lahaa waa labada boqor ee dalka Maaday iyo dalka Faaris.
21 The goat [that you saw represents] the kingdom of Greece, and the horn that appeared between its eyes [represents] its first king.
Orgigiina waa boqorka dalka Gariigta, oo geeskii weynaa oo labadiisa indhood dhexdooda ku yiilna waa boqorka kowaad.
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.
Oo midkii ka jabay meeshii afartu soo istaagtay, quruuntaas waxaa ka soo bixi doonta afar boqortooyo, laakiinse xooggiisa ma yeelan doonaan.
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.
Marka ugu dambaysta boqortooyadooda, ee uu dembilayaasha wakhtigoodu buuxsamo waxaa kici doona boqor wejigiisa laga cabsado, oo garanaya waxyaalaha daahan.
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.
Oo xooggiisuna wuu weynaan doonaa, laakiinse ma aha xagga isaga xooggiisa, oo aad buu si yaab leh wax u baabbi'in doonaa, wuuna ku barwaaqoobi doonaa wuxuu sameeyo, oo wuxuu baabbi'in doonaa kuwa xoogga badan iyo dadka quduuska ah.
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.
Oo siyaasaddiisa ayuu khiyaanada gacantiisa kaga guulaysan doonaa; markaasuu xagga qalbiga iska weynayn doonaa, oo kuwo badan oo nabadgelyaysan ayuu baabbi'in doonaa. Wuxuu kaloo is-hor taagi doonaa Amiirka amiirrada; laakiinse waa la jejebin doonaa isagoo aan gacan la saarin.
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.”
Oo riyadii fiidadka iyo subaxyada ee laguu sheegay waa run, laakiinse adigu riyada xidh, waayo, waxaa iska leh maalmo badan oo iman doona.
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.
Markaasaan anigoo Daanyeel ahu suuxay, dhawr maalmoodna waan bukay, dabadeedna waan kacay, oo shuqulkii boqorka qabtay: oo riyadii waan la yaabay, laakiinse ciduna ma garan.
