< Daniel 10 >
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the message was true, even a great warfare. He understood the message, and had understanding of the vision.
Ní ọdún kẹta Kirusi ọba Persia, a fi ìran kan hàn Daniẹli (ẹni tí à ń pè ní Belteṣassari). Òtítọ́ ni ọ̀rọ̀ ìran náà, ó sì ní í ṣe pẹ̀lú àsìkò ìpọ́njú ńlá, òye ọ̀rọ̀ náà wá bá a nínú ìran.
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks.
Ní àsìkò náà, èmi Daniẹli ṣọ̀fọ̀ fún ọ̀sẹ̀ mẹ́ta.
3 I ate no pleasant food. No meat or wine came into my mouth. I didn’t anoint myself at all, until three whole weeks were fulfilled.
Èmi kì í jẹ oúnjẹ tí ó dára, èmi kò fi ẹran tàbí wáìnì kan ẹnu mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kò fi òróró para títí ọ̀sẹ̀ mẹ́ta fi kọjá.
4 In the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel,
Ní ọjọ́ kẹrìnlélógún oṣù àkọ́kọ́, bí mo ti dúró sí etí i bèbè odò ńlá Tigirisi,
5 I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a man clothed in linen, whose waist was adorned with pure gold of Uphaz.
mo wo òkè, mo rí ọkùnrin kan tí ó wọ aṣọ àlà, ẹ̀gbẹ́ ẹni tí a fi wúrà Upasi dáradára dì ní àmùrè.
6 His body also was like beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches. His arms and his feet were like burnished bronze. The voice of his words was like the voice of a multitude.
Ara rẹ̀ dàbí berili, ojú u rẹ̀ dàbí mọ̀nàmọ́ná, ẹyin ojú u rẹ̀ dàbí iná àtẹ̀tàn, apá àti ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ dàbí ìtànná ìmọ́lẹ̀ tí o kún fún idẹ, àti ohùn rẹ̀ dàbí i ti ìjọ ènìyàn púpọ̀.
7 I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me didn’t see the vision, but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves.
Èmi Daniẹli, ni ẹnìkan tí ó rí ìran náà, àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wà pẹ̀lú u mi, wọn kò rí i, ṣùgbọ́n ìpayà ńlá dà bò wọ́n, wọ́n sálọ wọ́n sì fi ara pamọ́.
8 So I was left alone and saw this great vision. No strength remained in me; for my face grew deathly pale, and I retained no strength.
Ó sì ku èmi nìkan, tí mo rí ìran ńlá yìí, kò sì ku okun kankan fún mi, ojú u mi sì rẹ̀wẹ̀sì gidigidi, n kò sì ní agbára mọ́.
9 Yet I heard the voice of his words. When I heard the voice of his words, then I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face towards the ground.
Nígbà náà, ni mo gbọ́ tí ó ń sọ̀rọ̀, bí mo ṣe tẹ́tí sílẹ̀ sí i, mo sùn lọ fọnfọn, ní ìdojúbolẹ̀.
10 Behold, a hand touched me, which set me on my knees and on the palms of my hands.
Ọwọ́ kan kàn mí, ó gbé mi dìde ní ìwárìrì lórí ọwọ́ àti eékún mi.
11 He said to me, “Daniel, you greatly beloved man, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have been sent to you, now.” When he had spoken this word to me, I stood trembling.
Ó sọ pé, “Daniẹli ẹni tí a yàn fẹ́ gidigidi gba ọ̀rọ̀ tí mo fẹ́ bá ọ sọ yìí yẹ̀ wò dáradára, kí o sì dìde, nítorí tí a rán mi sí ọ.” Bí ó ṣe sọ èyí fún mi, mo dìde ní ìwárìrì.
12 Then he said to me, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel; for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. I have come for your words’ sake.
Nígbà náà ni ó tẹ̀síwájú, pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù Daniẹli. Láti ọjọ́ àkọ́kọ́ tí ìwọ ti fi ọkàn rẹ sílẹ̀ níwájú Ọlọ́run rẹ, a gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ, mo sì wá nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ náà.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; but, behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me because I remained there with the kings of Persia.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọmọ-aládé ìjọba Persia dá mi dúró fún ọjọ́ mọ́kànlélógún. Nígbà náà ni Mikaeli, ọ̀kan lára ìjòyè àwọn ọmọ-aládé, wá láti ràn mi lọ́wọ́, nítorí a dá mi dúró níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọba Persia.
14 Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision is yet for many days.”
Ní ìsinsin yìí mo wá láti ṣàlàyé ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ sí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ ní ọjọ́ iwájú, nítorí ìran náà ń sọ nípa ọjọ́ iwájú.”
15 When he had spoken these words to me, I set my face towards the ground and was mute.
Bí ó sì ti ń sọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún mi, mo sì dorí kodò mo sì dákẹ́.
16 Behold, one in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth, and spoke and said to him who stood before me, “My lord, by reason of the vision my sorrows have overtaken me, and I retain no strength.
Nígbà náà, ni ẹnìkan tí ó rí bí ènìyàn fi ọwọ́ kan ètè mi, mo la ẹnu mi, mo sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọ ọ̀rọ̀, mo sọ fún ẹni tí ó dúró níwájú mi, “Ìrònú sì mú mi, nítorí ìran náà, olúwa mi, n kò sì ní okun.
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. There was no breath left in me.”
Ǹjẹ́ báwo ni èmi ìránṣẹ́ ẹ̀ rẹ ṣe lè bá ọ sọ̀rọ̀, olúwa mi? Agbára mi ti lọ, agbára káká ni mo fi ń mí.”
18 Then one like the appearance of a man touched me again, and he strengthened me.
Ẹ̀wẹ̀, ẹnìkan tí ó rí bí ènìyàn fi ọwọ́ kàn mí, ó sì fún mi ní agbára.
19 He said, “Greatly beloved man, don’t be afraid. Peace be to you. Be strong. Yes, be strong.” When he spoke to me, I was strengthened, and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
Ó sì wí pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù, ìwọ ọkùnrin olùfẹ́ gidigidi. Àlàáfíà ni fún ọ, mú ara le, àní mú ara le.” Nígbà tí ohun bá mi sọ̀rọ̀, a sì mú mi lára le. “Mo sì wí pé, kí olúwa mi kí ó máa sọ̀rọ̀, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ìwọ ti mú mi ní ara le.”
20 Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? Now I will return to fight with the prince of Persia. When I go out, behold, the prince of Greece will come.
Nígbà náà, ni ó wí pé, “Ṣé o mọ ìdí tí mo fi tọ̀ ọ́ wá? Láìpẹ́ èmi yóò yípadà lọ bá àwọn ọmọ-aládé Persia jà, nígbà tí mo bá lọ àwọn ọmọ-aládé Giriki yóò wá;
21 But I will tell you that which is inscribed in the writing of truth. There is no one who holds with me against these but Michael your prince.
ṣùgbọ́n ní àkọ́kọ́, èmi yóò sọ ohun tí wọ́n kọ sínú ìwé òtítọ́ fún ọ. (Kò sí ẹni tí ó kún mi lọ́wọ́ fún nǹkan wọ̀nyí bí kò ṣe Mikaeli, ọmọ-aládé e yín.
