Daniel 9
1 [Now I am going to tell you about what happened] when Darius, who was from the Mede people-group and who was the son of Xerxes, ruled as the King of Babylonia.
Ni Dario ket anak a lalaki ni Ahasuero, a kaputotan ti taga-Media. Ni Ahasuero ti nagbalin nga ari iti entero a masakupan dagiti taga-Babilonia.
2 During the first year that he was the king, I, Daniel, was studying/reading the [holy] books/Scriptures the message that Yahweh had given to the prophet Jeremiah. In that message Jeremiah had written that Jerusalem would [be destroyed and] remain ruined for seventy years.
Ita, iti umuna a tawen a panagturay ni Dario, siak a ni Daniel, ket agad-adal kadagiti libro a naglaon iti sao ni Yahweh, ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias a profeta. Naammoak nga adda pito pulo a tawen agingga nga agleppas ti pannakalangalang ti Jerusalem.
3 [After I read that], I pleaded to Yahweh my God [to help us], praying and (fasting/abstaining from eating food). [While doing that, I was wearing] rough cloth and [sitting in] ashes [to show that I was very sad about what was going to happen to us].
Ket insangok ti rupak iti Apo a Dios, tapno sapulek isuna babaen iti kararag ken kadagiti panagdawat, nga addaan iti panagayunar, a nakakawes iti nakersang a lupot ken nakatugaw iti kadapdapuan.
4 I confessed [the sins that we had committed], and [this is what I] prayed: Lord, you are great and awesome! You have faithfully done what you said that you would do for us. You faithfully love those who love you and who do what you have commanded [that they should do].
Nagkararagak kenni Yahweh a Diosko, ket dimmawatak iti pammakawan kadagiti basbasolmi. Kinunak, “Agpakpakaasiak kenka, O Apo, sika ti naindaklan ken nakaskasdaaw a Dios a mangsalsalimetmet iti katulagan ken kinapudno kadagiti mangay-ayat kenka ken mangtungtungpal kadagiti bilbilinmo.
5 But we [Israelis] have sinned. We have done things that are wrong. We have done wicked things, and we have rebelled [against you]. We have turned away from [obeying] your commands [DOU].
Nagbasolkami ken inaramidmi iti saan a nasayaat. Nagtignaykami a sidadangkes ken nagrebeldekami, simmiasikami manipud kadagiti bilin ken lintegmo.
6 Your prophets spoke for you [MTY], [giving your messages to] kings, to our other rulers, to our [other] ancestors, and to all the Israeli people, but we have refused to (pay attention to/heed) those prophets.
Saanmi nga impangag dagiti adipenmo nga isu dagiti profeta a nagsao kadagiti arimi babaen iti naganmo, kadagiti mangidadaulo kadakami, kadagiti kapuonanmi ken kadagiti amin a tattao iti daga.
7 Lord, you always do what is righteous/just/fair, but we have caused ourselves to be ashamed [IDM]. This is [still] true about all of the Israelis who live in Jerusalem and who live in other places in Judea. It is [also] true about all us Israelis whom you scattered, who [were taken to] other countries, some near [Israel] and some far away, because we were very unfaithful/disloyal to you.
Kenka, O Apo, kukuam ti kinalinteg. Nupay kasta, kadakami ita nga aldaw, napnoan iti bain ti rupami— kadagiti tattao ti Juda ken kadagiti agnanaed idiay Jerusalem, ken iti entero nga Israel. Karaman dagiti adda iti asideg ken dagiti adda iti adayu kadagiti amin a daga a nangiwarasam kadakuada. Daytoy ket gapu iti nakaro a panangliputmi kenka.
8 Lord, we and our kings and our other rulers and our [other] ancestors have done very shameful things and have sinned against you.
Kadakami, O Yahweh, napnoan iti bain ti rupami—gapu kadagiti arimi, dagiti mangidadaulo kadakami ken dagiti kapuonanmi—gapu ta nagbasolkami kenka.
9 Although we have rebelled against you, you act mercifully [toward us] and you [are willing/ready] to forgive us.
Kukua ti Apo a Diosmi ti kinamanangngaasi ken pammakawan, ta nagsukirkami kenkuana.
10 Yahweh our God, when you gave your laws to your prophets who served you, and they told us to conduct our lives according to those laws, we did not (listen to/heed) you.
Saankami a nagtulnog iti timek ni Yahweh a Diosmi babaen iti pannagna kadagiti lintegna nga intedna kadakami babaen kadagiti profeta nga adipenna.
11 All [of us] Israeli people have disobeyed your laws, and we have turned away from [obeying] what you said. We have sinned against you. As a result, [you] have caused us to experience the terrible things that your servant Moses said/wrote [would happen to us] if we sinned against you.
Amin nga Israel ket nagsalungasing iti lintegmo ken simmiasida, nagkedkedda nga agtulnog iti timekmo. Ti lunod ken sapata a naisurat iti linteg ni Moises, nga adipen ti Dios, ket naibukbok kadakami ta nagbasolkami kenkuana.
12 You warned us and our rulers that you would punish Jerusalem severely by causing a great disaster there, a disaster that would be worse than any disaster that any other city had ever experienced, and you have done what you said that you would do.
Tinungpal ni Yahweh dagiti sao a sinaritana a maibusor kadakami ken maibusor kadagiti mangiturturay kadakami, babaen iti panangiyeg kadakami iti nakaro a didigra. Ta iti baba ti entero a langit ket awan ti naaramid nga aniaman a banag a mabalin nga iyasping iti naaramid iti Jerusalem.
13 [You] punished us just like Moses wrote [that you would do]. But, Yahweh our God, we still have not tried, by turning away from our sinning and by heeding your truth, to persuade you to act mercifully toward us.
Kas naisurat iti linteg ni Moises, amin dagitoy a didigra ket dimteng kadakami, ngem saankami a nagpakpakaasi kenni Yahweh a Diosmi babaen iti panangtallikudmi kadagiti basol ken panangipangag iti kinapudnom.
14 So, because we did not obey you, you prepared to punish us, and [then] you did punish us, because you always do what is righteous/just/fair.
Ngarud, insagana ni Yahweh dagiti didigra ket inyegna daytoy kadakami, ta nalinteg ni Yahweh a Diosmi iti amin nga inaramidna, ngem saankami a nagtulnog iti timekna.
15 O Lord our God, you brought your people out of Egypt by your great power [MTY], and by doing that you have caused people from that time until the present time to know that you are great [IDM] [even though] we have sinned and done wicked things.
Ita, O Apo a Diosmi, inruarmo dagiti tattaom manipud iti daga ti Egipto babaen iti nabileg nga ima, ket inaramidmo a nalatak ti naganmo, uray kadagitoy nga agdama nga aldaw. Ngem nagbasolkami latta; nakaaramidkami kadagiti nadangkes a banbanag.
16 Lord, Jerusalem is your city, and [your temple was built there] on your sacred hill. Now all the people who live in nearby [countries/nations] despise Jerusalem and [us] your people because of our sins and because of the evil things that our ancestors did. But [now], because you do what is righteous/just, [we ask you to] not be angry with Jerusalem any longer.
O Apo, gapu iti amin a nalinteg nga aramidmo, mapukaw koma ti unget ken ti pungtotmo iti siudadmo a Jerusalem, ti nasantoan a bantaymo. Gapu kadagiti basolmi, ken gapu kadagiti basol dagiti kapuonanmi, nagbalin ti Jerusalem ken dagiti tattaom a pagkakatawaan dagiti amin nga adda iti aglawlawmi.
17 O Lord our God, listen to what I am praying and pleading [for you to do]. (For your own sake/In order that people will know that you are very great), act kindly [IDM] concerning your temple, which was destroyed [by the armies of Babylonia].
Ita, O Diosmi, ipangagmo ti kararag ti adipenmo ken ti panagpakpakaasina; gapu iti naganmo, O Apo, pagraniagem ti rupam iti santuariom a langalang.
18 My God, listen [to my prayer]. Look [at us] and see our troubles, and see that this city that belongs to you [MTY] has been ruined/destroyed. We are praying to you because you are merciful, not because we have done what is right/good.
O Diosko, lukatam dagiti lapayagmo ket denggem; imulagatmo dagiti matam ket kitaem. Nadadaelkami; kitaem ti siudad nga umaw-awag iti naganmo. Saankami nga agpakpakaasi iti tulongmo gapu iti kinalintegmi, ngem gapu iti naindaklan nga asim.
19 Lord, listen [to us]! Lord, forgive us! Lord, this city and these people belong to you, so [we plead with you to] heed what we are saying and act [to help us] right now, (for your own sake/in order that people will know that you are very great)!
O Apo, denggem! O Apo, mamakawanka! O Apo ipangagmo ket agtignayka! Gapu iti naganmo, saanmo nga itantan, O Diosko, ta umaw-awag iti naganmo ti siudadmo ken dagiti tattaom.”
20 I continued praying and confessing the sins that my people and I had committed, and pleading with Yahweh my God that he would restore [the temple on] the sacred hill [in Jerusalem].
Kabayatan nga agsasaoak—agkarkararag ken ipudpudnok ti basolko ken ti basol dagiti tattaok nga Israel, ken idatdatag dagiti kiddawko iti sangoanan ni Yahweh a Diosko maigapu iti nasantoan a bantay ti Dios—
21 While I was praying, Gabriel, the angel/one whom I had seen in the vision previously, came flying rapidly to me, at the time in the evening when [the priests] offered sacrifices.
kabayatan nga agkarkararagak, ti tao a ni Gabriel a nakitak iti umuna a sirmatak ket timmayab a sipepegges nga umasideg kaniak, iti tiempo ti panagidaton iti rabii.
22 He said to me, “Daniel, I have come to you to enable you to understand [DOU] clearly [the message that God gave to Jeremiah].
Inikkannak iti pannakaawat ket kinunana kaniak, “Daniel, immayak ita tapno ikkanka iti saririt ken pannakaawat.
23 When you began to plead [with God], he gave me a message [to pass on to you]. He loves you very much, so [he has sent me] to tell you what he said to me. So [now] (pay attention/listen carefully) in order that you may understand the meaning of what he revealed [to Jeremiah].
Idi mangrugika nga agkidkiddaw iti kaasi, naiteden ti bilin ket immayak tapno ibagak kenka ti sungbat, ta maay-ayatka unay. Ngarud, ibilangmo daytoy a sao ken awatem ti palti-ing.
24 [God] has determined/declared that there will be 490 years until he frees/saves your people from [the guilt of] their sins and to atone for the evil things that they have done. Then [God] will rule everyone justly, and he will do that forever. And [what you saw in] the vision and what [Jeremiah] prophesied will (come true/be fulfilled), and the sacred temple will be dedicated [to God again].
Pito pulo ket pito a tawen ti naikeddeng kadagiti tattaom ken iti nasantoan a siudadmo tapno agpatingga ti panagsalungasing ken tapno agpatinggan ti basol, tapno mapakawan ti kinadangkes, tapno maiyeg ti agnanayon a kinalinteg, tapno ipatungpal ti sirmata ken ti padto, ken tapno maikonsagrar ti kasasantoan a disso.
25 You need to know and understand this: There will be 49 years from the time that [the king] commands that Jerusalem should be rebuilt until the leader/king that God has chosen will come. Then 434 years later, Jerusalem will be rebuilt, and it will have streets and will have a (moat/deep ditch filled with water) around it [to protect the city]. But that will be a time when [God’s people] will have [a lot of] troubles/difficulties/suffering.
Ammoem ken awatem a manipud iti pannakaited ti bilin tapno maisubli ken matarimaan ti Jerusalem iti iyu-umay ti napulotan (nga agbalinto a mangidadaulo), addanto iti pito a pito ken innem a pulo ket dua a pito. Matarimaanto ti Jerusalem nga addaan kadagiti kalsada ken kanal, uray pay kadagiti tiempo ti pannakariribuk.
26 After those 434 years, the leader/king whom God has appointed will be killed [when it seems that] he will have accomplished nothing (unjustly/without having done anything wrong). After that, the temple will be destroyed by [the army of] a powerful ruler. The city and the temple will be destroyed like a flood [MET] [destroys everything]. That will be the beginning of the war and destruction that [God] has decreed [will happen].
Kalpasan ti innem a pulo ket dua a pito a tawen, madadaelto ti napulotan ket awanto ti mabati kenkuana. Ti armada ti umay a mangituray ket dadaelenna ti siudad ken ti nasantoan a disso. Umayto ti paggibusanna babaen iti layus, ket addanto ti gubat agingga iti panungpalan. Naikeddengen ti pannakalangalang.
27 That ruler will make a strong agreement with many people. He will promise to do for seven years what he has said in that agreement. But when that time is half finished, he will prevent [priests from] giving any more offerings and sacrifices [to God]. A disgusting idol will be put on the highest part of the temple, and it will stay there until [God] gets rid of the one who put it there, which is what he said that he would do.”
Mangaramidto isuna ti maysa a katulagan iti adu iti maysa a pito. Iti katengngaan iti pito isardengnanto ti agidaton ken agisagut. Ket manipud iti payak ti kinarimon ket umayto ti maysa a mamagbalin a langalang. Naikeddengen ti naan-anay a panungpalan ken pannakadadael a maibukbok iti nangaramid iti pannakalangalang.”
