< Daniel 9 >

1 Darius was the son of Ahasuerus, a descendant of the Medes. It was Ahasuerus who had been made king over the realm of the Babylonians.
Amy taom-baloham-pifehea’ i Dariavese ana’ i Akrasehòse tarira’ o nte-Medaio, ie nanoeñe mpanjaka an-tane’ o nte-Kasdio;
2 Now in the first year of Darius' reign I, Daniel, was studying the books containing Yahweh's word, the word that had come to Jeremiah the prophet. I observed that there would be seventy years until Jerusalem's abandonment would end.
amy taom-baloham-pifehea’ey, le nañotsohotso amo bokeo iraho, Daniele, ty ami’ty ia’ o taoñe tsinara’ Iehovà am’ Iiremeà mpitokio, ty haha-heneke ty fangoakoahañe Ierosa­laime, le fito-polo taoñe.
3 I turned my face to the Lord God, to seek him with prayer and requests, with fasting, wearing sackcloth, and sitting in ashes.
Aa le natoliko aman’ Añahare Talè ty tareheko, hipaiako an-tsoloho naho halaly, an-dilitse naho gony vaho lavenoke.
4 I prayed to Yahweh my God, and I made confession of our sins. I said, “Please, Lord—you are the great and awesome God—you are the one who keeps the covenant and is faithful to love those who love you and keep your commandments.
Aa le nihalaly am’ Iehovà Andrianañahareko, nisoloho ami’ty hoe: Ie henane zao ry Talè Andrianañahare jabahinake mañeva fañeveñañe, mpitàm-pañìna naho miferenaiñe amo mikoko Azo naho miambeñe o lili’oo;
5 We have sinned and have done what is wrong. We have acted wickedly and we have rebelled, turning aside from your commands and decrees.
nandilatse zahay, nanao hakeo naho tahiñe, fa niola vaho nihànkañe amo fandilia’oo naho o fepè’oo.
6 We have not listened to your servants the prophets who spoke in your name to our kings, our leaders, our ancestors, and to all the people of the land.
Tsy nihaoñe’ay o mpitoky mpitoro’oo, ie ami’ty tahina’o iereo te nisaontsy amo mpanjaka’aio naho amo mpifehe’aio naho amo roae’aio vaho amo hene’ ondaty i taneio.
7 To you, Lord, belongs righteousness. To us today, however, belongs shame on our faces—for the people of Judah and those who live in Jerusalem, and to all Israel. This includes those who are near and those who are far away in all the lands where you scattered them. This is because of the great treachery that we committed against you.
Ry Talè, Azo ty havantañañe, anay ty fisalaran-daharañe, manahake henanekeo; le am’ ondati’ Iehodào naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo vaho am’ Israele iaby, o marineo naho o tsietoitane añeo amo fonga tane nandroaha’o iareo ty amy lilatse nandilara’ iareoo.
8 To us, Yahweh, belongs shame on our faces—to our kings, to our leaders, and to our ancestors—because we have sinned against you.
Ry Talè toe ama’ay ty fisalaran-daharañe, amo mpanjaka’aio naho amo mpifehe’aio, vaho amo roae’aio, ty amo ota-faly nanoe’ay ama’oo.
9 To the Lord our God belong compassion and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him.
Amy Talè Andrianañahare’ay ty fiferenaiñañe naho ty fampipohan-kakeo, fa niola zahay,
10 We have not obeyed the voice of Yahweh our God by walking in his laws he gave us through his servants the prophets.
naho tsy nihaoñe’ay ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andria­nañahare’ay hañaveloa’ay amo Tsara’e najado’e añatrefa’ay am-pitoky mpitoro’eo.
11 All Israel has transgressed your law and turned aside, refusing to obey your voice. The curse and oath that are written in the law of Moses, the servant of God, have been poured out on us, for we have sinned against him.
Fonga nandilatse amy fetse’oy t’Israele, niamboho tsy nahajanjiñe ty fiarañanaña’o; izay ty nifetsaha’ i fa­tsey ama’ay naho i fanta sinokitse amy Tsara’ i Mosè, mpitoron’ Añaharey, ty amo haota-faly nanoe’ay ama’eo.
12 Yahweh has confirmed the words that he spoke against us and against our rulers over us, by bringing on us a great disaster. For under the whole of heaven there has not been done anything that could compare with what has been done to Jerusalem.
Fa nampihenefe’e o tsara nitsarae’e ama’aio, naho amo mpizaka nifelek’ anaio, amo hankàñe nafetsa’e ama’aio; o le lia’ey tsy nanoeñe ambanen-dikerañe iabio le fa nanoeñe am’ Ierosalaime.
13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this disaster has come on us, yet we have not begged for mercy from Yahweh our God by turning away from our iniquities and paying attention to your truth.
Ie sinokitse amy Tsara’ i Mosèy ao, le nidaiñe ama’ay o hekoheko rezao, fa tsy pinai’ay ty lahara’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay hiambohoa’ay o hakeo’aio, haharen­dreke ty hatò.
14 Therefore Yahweh has kept the disaster ready and has brought it on us, for Yahweh our God is righteous in all the deeds he does, yet we have not obeyed his voice.
Aa le nampihitrife’ Iehovà i fandilovañey vaho nafetsa’e ama’ay; amy te vantañe amo fitoloñañe anoe’e iabio t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay, zahay nañatola amy fiarañanaña’ey.
15 Now, Lord our God, you brought out your people from the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and you have made a famous name for yourself, as in this present day. But still we sinned; we have done wicked things.
Ie amy zao, ry Talè Andrianañahare’ay, Ihe nañakatse ondati’oo an-tane Mitsraime am-pitañe maozatse naho nahazoa’o tahinañe midodea, manahake henane zao; toe nandilatse zahay vaho nañota faly.
16 Lord, because of all your righteous deeds, let your anger and your wrath turn away from your city Jerusalem, your holy mountain. Because of our sins, and because of the iniquities of our ancestors, Jerusalem and your people have become an object of scorn to all those around us.
Ry Talè, ty amo havañona’o iabio, ehe ampitoliho tsy homb’ an-drova’o Ierosalaime, vohi’o miavakey, ty haviñera’o naho ty fiforoforoa’o; amy te sirikae’ ondaty mañohok’ anaio t’Iero­salaime naho ondati’oo ty amo hakeo’aio naho o tahin-droae’aio.
17 Now, our God, listen to the prayer of your servant and to his pleas for mercy; for your sake, Lord, make your face shine on your sanctuary that is desolate.
Ie amy zao, ry Andria­naña­hare’ay, janjiño ty halali’ i mpitoro’oy naho o fisolohoa’eo, vaho ampireandreaño ty lahara’o, ty ama’o, ry Talè, ty amy toe’o miavake nampangoakoaheñey.
18 My God, open your ears and listen; open your eyes and see. We have been devastated; look at the city that is called by your name. We do not beg for your help because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercy.
Ry Andrianañahareko, atokilaño ty ravembia’o le mijanjiña; sokafo o fihaino’oo vaho vazohò ty fangoakoaha’ay naho i rova tokaveñe ami’ty tahina’oy; toe tsy ty havañona’ay ty itaroña’ay halaly añatrefa’o, fa o fiferenaiña’o tsi-fotofotoo.
19 Lord, listen! Lord, forgive! Lord, pay attention and take action! For your own sake, do not delay, my God, for your city and your people are called by your name.”
Mijanjiña, ry Talè; mañahà hakeo, Rañandria; haoño vaho mitoloña ry Talè; ko mihànkañe, ry Andrianañahareko, ty amy tahina’oy, amy te kanjieñe ami’ty tahina’o i rova’oy naho ondati’oo.
20 While I was speaking—praying and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my requests before Yahweh my God on behalf of God's holy mountain—
Ie nivolañe naho niloloke vaho nisoloho amo tahikoo naho amo hakeo’ ondatiko Israeleo, vaho nitaron-kalaly añatrefa’ Iehovà Andria­nañahareko ty amy vohi-masin’ Añaharekoy;
21 while I was praying, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the first, flew down to me in rapid flight, at the time of the evening sacrifice.
aa ie mbe nivolañe am-pilolofañe, va’e amy fisoroñañe harivay, le nihela-piti­liñe amako t’i Gabriele nitendrek’ amako amy aroñaroñe valoha’ey vaho nañedre ahy.
22 He gave me understanding and said to me, “Daniel, I have now come out to give you insight and understanding.
Nampan­drendrehe’e naho nisaontsia’e ty hoe: Ry Daniele, nivotrake etoan-draho hampahafohiñ’ azo i aroñaroñey.
23 When you began pleading for mercy, the order was given and I have come to tell you the answer, for you are greatly loved. Therefore consider this word and understand the revelation.
Ie vaho nihalaly, le nahitrike i tsaray, le ingo te pok’ etoan-draho hañoke azo; fa vata’e kokoan-drehe; aa le fohino o tsa­rao naho rendreho o aroñaroñeo.
24 Seventy sevens are decreed for your people and your holy city to end the guilt and put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring everlasting righteousness, to carry out the vision and the prophecy, and to consecrate the most holy place.
Fa najadoñe am’ ondati’oo naho amy rova’o miavakey ty hereñandro fitompolo hampijihetse i fiolày, hampigadon-kakeo, hijebañañe o tahiñeo, hampizilike havantañañe tsy ho modo nainai’e, naho hanjitse ty aroñaroñe naho ty fitokiañe, vaho horizañe i Masiñe do’ey.
25 Know and understand that from the issuing of the order to restore and rebuild Jerusalem to the coming of the anointed one (who will be a leader), there will be seven sevens and sixty-two sevens. Jerusalem will be rebuilt with streets and a moat, despite the times of distress.
Mahafohina arè naho maharendreha t’ie hifototse ami’ ty fitseizañe i tsara hampipolieñe ondatio hamboatse Ierosalaimey, am-para’ i Mpifehe Tinendrey, le ho hereñandro fito naho hereñandro enempolo-ro’ amby, vaho hamboareñe indraike i damokey naho i kijoliy, an-tsam-poheke.
26 After the sixty-two sevens, the anointed one will be destroyed and will have nothing. The army of a coming ruler will destroy the city and the holy place. Its end will come with a flood, and there will be war even to the end. Desolations have been decreed.
Aa ie modo i hereñandro enem-polo-ro’amby rey le haitoañe tsy amam-panàñañe i Norizañey; le homb’eo ondati’ i mpifelekeio handro­tsake i rovay naho i toetse miavakey; le hoe fisorotombahañe ty ho figadoña’e le fampangoakoahañe ty nalahatse am-para te heneke i aliy.
27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one seven. In the middle of the seven he will put an end to the sacrifice and the offering. On the wing of abominations will come someone who makes desolate. A full end and destruction are decreed to be poured out on the one who has made the desolation.”
Hanoe’e fañina mijadoñe amy màroy ho ami’ty hereñandro raike; fe añivo’ i hereñandroy re ro hampijihetse i soroñey naho i engay, le añ’elan-draha tiva ty hampangoakoahe’e, ampara’ te nadoañe amy mpampangoakey i famongorañe nafetsey.
