Daniel 11

1 Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him.

I ja prve godine Darija Midijanina stadoh da mu pomožem, i da ga potkrijepim.

2 And now will I show thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Greece.

A sada æu ti kazati istinu. Evo, još æe tri cara nastati u Persiji; i èetvrti æe biti bogatiji od svijeh, i kad se ukrijepi bogatstvom svojim, sve æe podignuti na Grèko carstvo.

3 And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.

Potom æe nastati silan car, i vladaæe velikom državom i radiæe što hoæe.

4 And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those.

A kako nestane, rasuæe se carstvo njegovo i razdijeliæe se u èetiri vjetra nebeska, ne meðu natražje njegovo niti s vlašæu s kojom je on vladao, jer æe se carstvo njegovo ukinuti i dopasti drugima a ne njima.

5 And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion.

I car južni osiliæe, i jedan od knezova njegovijeh, i biæe silniji od njega, i vladaæe, i država æe njegova biti velika.

6 And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the king’s daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she shall not retain the power of the arm; neither shall he stand, nor his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in these times.

I poslije nekoliko godina oni æe se oprijateljiti, i kæi južnoga cara doæi æe k caru sjevernom da uèini pogodbu; ali ona neæe saèuvati sile mišici, niti æe se on održati s mišicom svojom, nego æe biti predana i ona i oni koji je dovedu i sin njezin i onaj koji joj bude pomagao u to vrijeme.

7 But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, who shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail:

Potom æe od izdanka iz korijena njezina nastati jedan na mjesto njegovo, koji æe doæi s vojskom svojom i udariti na gradove cara sjevernoga, i biæe ih i osvojiæe ih.

8 And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the north.

I bogove æe njihove i knezove njihove sa zakladima njihovijem dragocjenijem zlatnijem i srebrnijem odnijeti u ropstvo u Misir, i ostaæe nekoliko godina jaèi od cara sjevernoga.

9 So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land.

I tako æe car južni doæi u svoje carstvo, i vratiæe se u svoju zemlju.

10 But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and one shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through: then shall he return, and be stirred up, even to his fortress.

Ali æe sinovi njegovi zaratiti, i skupiæe veliku vojsku; i jedan æe doæi iznenada, i poplaviti i proæi; i vrativši se ratovaæe do grada njegova.

11 And the king of the south shall be moved with anger, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand.

Tada æe se razljutiti car južni, i izaæi æe i ratovaæe s njim, s carem sjevernijem, i podignuæe veliku vojsku, te æe mu biti data u ruke vojska.

12 And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it.

I kad razbije vojsku, ponijeæe se srce njegovo, i pobiæe tisuæe, ali se neæe ukrijepiti.

13 For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.

Jer æe car sjeverni opet dignuti vojsku veæu od prve; i poslije nekoliko godina doæi æe s velikom vojskom i s velikim blagom.

14 And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall.

I u to æe vrijeme mnogi ustati na cara južnoga; i zlikovci od tvojega naroda podignuæe se da se potvrdi utvara, i popadaæe.

15 So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a bank, and take the most fortified cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.

I doæi æe car sjeverni, i naèiniæe opkope, i uzeæe tvrde gradove, i mišice južnoga cara neæe odoljeti ni izabrani narod njegov, niti æe biti sile da se opre.

16 But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed.

I onaj došav na nj èiniæe što hoæe, i neæe biti nikoga da mu se opre; i ustaviæe se u krasnoj zemlji, koju æe potrti svojom rukom.

17 He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand on his side, neither be for him.

Potom æe okrenuti da doðe sa silom svega carstva svojega, ali æe se pogoditi s njim, i daæe mu kæer za ženu da bi ga upropastio, ali se ona neæe držati, niti æe biti s njim.

18 After this shall he turn his face to the isles, and shall take many: but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him.

Potom æe se okrenuti na ostrva, i osvojiæe mnoga; ali æe jedan vojvoda prekinuti sramotu koju èini, i oboriæe na nj sramotu njegovu.

19 Then he shall turn his face toward the fortresses of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found.

Potom æe se okrenuti ka gradovima svoje zemlje, i spotaknuæe se i pašæe, i neæe se više naæi.

20 Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

I na njegovo æe mjesto nastati koji æe poslati nastojnika u slavi carskoj; ali æe za malo dana poginuti bez gnjeva i bez boja.

21 And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

A na njegovo æe mjesto doæi neznatan èovjek, kome nije namijenjena èast carska; ali æe doæi mirno i osvojiæe carstvo laskanjem.

22 And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflowed from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant.

I mišice koje plave on æe poplaviti i polomiti, pa i kneza s kojim je uèinio vjeru.

23 And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people.

Jer udruživši se s njim uèiniæe prijevaru, i došavši nadvladaæe s malo naroda.

24 He shall enter peaceably even upon the best places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall plot against the strong holds, even for a time.

I doæi æe mirno u rodna mjesta u zemlji, i uèiniæe što ni ocevi njegovi ni ocevi otaca njegovijeh ne uèiniše, razdijeliæe im plijen i grabež i blago, i smišljaæe misli na gradove, za neko vrijeme.

25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand: for they shall plot against him.

Potom æe podignuti silu svoju i srce svoje na cara južnoga s velikom vojskom; i car æe južni doæi u boj s velikom i vrlo silnom vojskom; ali neæe odoljeti, jer æe mu se èiniti nevjera.

26 Yea, they that feed of the portion of his food shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow: and many shall fall down slain.

I koji jedu hljeb njegov satræe ga; vojska æe njegova poplaviti, i mnogi æe pasti pobijeni.

27 And both these kings’ hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.

I srce æe obojice careva raditi o zlu, i za jednijem æe stolom lagati; ali se neæe izvršiti; jer æe kraj još biti u odreðeno vrijeme.

28 Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land.

I tako æe se vratiti u svoju zemlju s velikim blagom; i srce æe se njegovo obratiti na sveti zavjet, i kad izvrši, vratiæe se u svoju zemlju.

29 At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter.

U odreðeno æe vrijeme opet doæi na jug; ali drugi put neæe biti kao prvi put.

30 For the ships of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant.

Jer æe doæi na nj laðe Kitejske, i on æe se ojaditi, te æe se vratiti; i razljutiæe se na sveti zavjet, i izvršiæe; i vrativši se složiæe se s onima koji ostavljaju sveti zavjet.

31 And forces shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.

I vojska æe stajati uza nj, i oskvrniæe svetinju u gradu, i ukinuti žrtvu svagdašnju i postaviæe gnusobu pustošnu.

32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

I koji su bezbožni prema zavjetu, on æe ih laskanjem otpaditi; ali narod koji poznaje Boga svojega ohrabriæe se i izvršiæe.

33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.

I razumni u narodu nauèiæe mnoge, i padaæe od maèa i ognja, ropstva i grabeža mnogo vremena.

34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be helped with a little help: but many shall join with them with flatteries.

Ali padajuæi dobiæe malu pomoæ; i mnogi æe pristati s njima dvolièeæi.

35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.

I od razumnijeh æe pasti neki da bi se okušali i oèistili i ubijelili do roka, jer æe još biti rok.

36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that which is determined shall be done.

I taj æe car èiniti što hoæe, i podignuæe se i uzvisiæe se iznad svakoga boga, i èudno æe govoriti na Boga nad bogovima, i biæe sreæan dokle se ne svrši gnjev, jer æe se izvršiti što je odreðeno.

37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.

Neæe mariti ni za bogove svojih otaca ni za ljubav žensku, niti æe za koga boga mariti, nego æe se uzvišivati nada sve.

38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.

I na mjesto Boga najsilnijega slaviæe boga kojega oci njegovi ne znaše, slaviæe zlatom i srebrom i dragim kamenjem i zakladima.

39 Thus shall he do in the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.

I uèiniæe da gradovi Boga najsilnijega budu boga tuðega; koje pozna umnožiæe im slavu i uèiniæe ih gospodarima nad mnogima i razdijeliæe zemlju mjesto plate.

40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass through.

A u pošljednje vrijeme južni æe se car pobiti s njim; i car æe sjeverni udariti na nj kao vihor s kolima i konjicima i s mnogim laðama, i ušavši u zemlje poplaviæe i proæi.

41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.

I doæi æe u krasnu zemlju, i mnogi æe propasti, a ove æe se izbaviti od njegovijeh ruku: Edomska, Moavska i glavni dio sinova Amonovijeh.

42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

I posegnuæe rukom svojom na zemlje, i zemlja Misirska neæe umaknuti.

43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Cushites shall be at his steps.

I osvojiæe blago u zlatu i u srebru i sve zaklade Misirske; i Livijani i Etiopljani iæi æe za njim.

44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to sweep away many.

Ali æe ga glasovi s istoka i sa sjevera smesti, te æe izaæi s velikim gnjevom da pogubi i zatre mnoge.

45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

I razapeæe šatore dvora svojega meðu morima na krasnoj svetoj gori; i kad doðe k svome kraju, niko mu neæe pomoæi.
