Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.
Chaka chachitatu cha Koresi mfumu ya Aperezi, Danieli amene ankatchedwa Belitesezara analandira mawu a vumbulutso. Uthenga wake unali woona ndipo anawumvetsa movutikira. Uthengawu anawumva kudzera mʼmasomphenya.
2 In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.
Pa nthawi imeneyi, ine Danieli ndinalira kwa masabata atatu.
3 I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
Sindinadye chakudya chokoma; nyama ndi vinyo sizinakhudze milomo yanga ndi pangʼono pomwe; ndipo sindinadzole mafuta aliwonse mpaka patatha masabata atatu.
4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel;
Pa tsiku la 24 la mwezi woyamba, nditayima mʼmbali mwa mtsinje waukulu wa Tigirisi,
5 Then I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:
ndinakweza maso ndipo ndinaona kuti pafupi ndi ine panali munthu wochokera ku Ufazi atavala zovala zosalala ndi lamba wa golide woyengeka bwino mʼchiwuno mwake.
6 His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
Thupi lake linali ngati mwala wonyezimira, nkhope yake ngati chiphaliwali, maso ake ngati muni wowala, manja ndi miyendo yake ngati mkuwa wowala, ndipo mawu ake ngati liwu la chikhamu cha anthu.
7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.
Ine Danieli ndinali ndekha pamene ndinaona masomphenyawa; anthu amene anali ndi ine sanawaone, koma anadzazidwa ndi mantha kotero kuti anathawa ndi kukabisala.
8 Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
Choncho ndinatsala ndekha, ndikuonetsetsa masomphenya a ulemererowa. Ndiye nkhope yanga inasinthika, ndinalefuka, ndipo ndinalibenso mphamvu.
9 Yet I heard the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then I was in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.
Kenaka ndinamva iye akuyankhula, ndipo pamene ndinkamvetsera, ndinagwa chafufumimba ndi kugona tulo tofa nato.
10 And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
Dzanja linandikhudza ndi kundinyamula ndipo ndinachita ngati kuwerama pa mawondo manja atagwira pansi.
11 And he said to me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to thee, and stand upright: for to thee I am now sent. And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood trembling.
Iye anati, “Danieli, iwe wokondedwa kwambiri, imirira ndipo uganizire mosamala mawu ndiyankhule kwa iwe, popeza tsopano ndatumidwa kwa iwe.” Atanena izi kwa ine ndinayimirira monjenjemera.
12 Then said he to me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
Ndipo iye anapitiriza nati, “Usachite mantha Danieli. Kuyambira tsiku loyamba pamene unatsimikiza mtima kuti umvetse zinthuzi ndi kudzichepetsa pamaso pa Mulungu wako, pempho lako linamveka ndipo ndabwera kudzayankha mapemphero akowo.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
Koma mtsogoleri wa ufumu wa Peresiya ananditchingira pa masiku 21, kenaka Mikayeli, mmodzi mwa angelo akuluakulu anadza kudzandithandiza chifukwa ndinakhala komweko ndi mafumu a ku Peresiya.
14 Now I have come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.
Tsopano ndafika kuti ndidzakufotokozere zimene zidzachitika kwa anthu a mtundu wako kutsogolo. Ndipo pali masomphenya enanso okhudza nthawi imene ikudza.”
15 And when he had spoken such words to me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.
Pa nthawi yomwe ankanena izi kwa ine, ndinazolika nkhope yanga pansi kusowa chonena.
16 And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spoke, and said to him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.
Kenaka wina wa maonekedwe ngati munthu anakhudza milomo yanga, ndipo ndinatsekula pakamwa panga ndi kuyamba kuyankhula. Ndinati kwa amene anayima patsogolo panga, “Ine ndasweka mtima chifukwa cha masomphenyawa mbuye wanga, ndipo ndalefuka.
17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
Kodi ine mtumiki wamba wa mbuye wanga ndingathe bwanji kuyankhula ndi inu mbuye wanga? Mphamvu zanga zatha, ndipo ndikulephera kupuma.”
18 Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,
Kenaka wooneka ngati munthu uja anandikhudzanso ndipo anandipatsa mphamvu.
19 And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be to thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he had spoken to me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.
Iye anati, “Usachite mantha, munthu wokondedwa kwambiriwe. Mtendere ukhale ndi Iwe ndipo ukhale wolimba.” Atayankhula nane, ndinalimbikitsidwa ndipo ndinati, “Yankhulani Mbuye wanga, popeza mwandipatsa mphamvu.”
20 Then said he, Knowest thou for what cause I come to thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Greece shall come.
Ndipo iye anati, “Kodi ukudziwa chifukwa chimene ndabwerera kwa iwe? Ndiyamba ndabwerera kukamenyana ndi mtsogoleri wa ufumu wa Peresiya, ndipo ndikakanthana naye, kenaka mtsogoleri wa ufumu wa Grisi adzabwera.
21 But I will show thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
Koma ndikuwuza zimene zalembedwa mʼbuku la zoona koma palibe wondithandiza kulimbana nawo kupatula Mikayeli, kalonga wako.”
