< Daniel 7 >
1 In the firste yeer of Balthasar, kyng of Babiloyne, Danyel siy a sweuene. Forsothe he wroot the visioun of his hed in his bed, and the dreem, and comprehendide in schort word; and he touchide schortli the sentence,
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mbere wa Belishazaru mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Babuloni, Danieli nĩarootire kĩroto, na akĩona cioneki meciiria-inĩ make akomete ũrĩrĩ-inĩ wake. Nake akĩandĩka ũhoro wa kĩroto kĩu.
2 and seide, Y siy in my visioun in niyt, and lo! foure wyndis of heuene fouyten in the myddis of the greet see.
Danieli akiuga atĩrĩ: “Niĩ Danieli-rĩ, ũtukũ nĩndonire kĩoneki, na hau mbere yakwa ngĩona huho inya cia igũrũ ikĩhurutanĩra igũrũ wa iria rĩrĩa inene.
3 And foure grete beestis dyuerse bitwixe hem silf stieden fro the see.
Naho hau hakiumĩra nyamũ inya ciarĩ nene kuuma iria-inĩ rĩu, na gũtirĩ yahanaga ĩrĩa ĩngĩ.
4 The firste beeste was as a lionesse, and hadde wyngis of an egle. Y bihelde til the wyngis therof weren pullid awei, and it was takun awei fro erthe, and it stood as a man on the feet, and the herte therof was youun to it.
“Nyamũ ya mbere yahaanaga ta mũrũũthi, na yarĩ na mathagu ta ma ndiiyũ. Ngĩikara ndorete nginya rĩrĩa njoya ciayo ciamunyirwo, nayo ĩgĩcooka ĩkĩoywo na igũrũ ĩkĩrũgamio na magũrũ mayo meerĩ ta mũndũ, na ĩkĩheo ngoro ta ya mũndũ.
5 And lo! another beeste, lijk a bere in parti, stood, and thre ordris weren in the mouth therof, and thre princes in the teeth therof. And thus thei seiden to it, Rise thou, ete thou ful many fleischis.
“Na hau mbere yakwa nĩ haarĩ na nyamũ ĩngĩ ya keerĩ, nayo yahaanaga ta nduba. Nayo nyamũ ĩyo nĩyambararĩtie mwena ũmwe wayo, na ĩkarũma mbaru ithatũ na kanua gatagatĩ ka magego mayo. Nayo ĩkĩĩrwo atĩrĩ, ‘Ũkĩra ũrĩe nyama nginya ũiganie!’
6 Aftir these thingis Y bihelde, and lo! anothir beeste as a pard, and it hadde on it silf foure wyngis of a brid, and foure heedis weren in the beeste, and power was youun to it.
“Thuutha ũcio ngĩrora na ngĩona hau mbere yakwa nyamũ ĩngĩ, nayo yahaanaga ta ngarĩ. Mũgongo-inĩ wayo yarĩ na mathagu mana maahaanaga ta ma nyoni. Nyamũ ĩyo yarĩ na mĩtwe ĩna, na nĩyahetwo ũhoti wa gwathana.
7 Aftir these thingis Y bihelde in the visioun of niyt, and lo! the fourthe beeste, ferdful, and wondirful, and ful strong. It hadde grete irun teeth, and it ete, and made lesse, and defoulide with hise feet othere thingis; forsothe it was vnlijk othere beestis, which Y hadde seyn bifore it, and it hadde ten hornes.
“Thuutha ũcio niĩ Danieli-rĩ, ũtukũ nĩndonire kĩoneki, na hau mbere yakwa ngĩona nyamũ ya kana, nayo yarĩ ya kũmakania na ya gũtua mũndũ nda, na nĩ yarĩ na hinya mũno. Nyamũ ĩyo yarĩ na magego manene ma kĩgera; na yahehenjaga na ĩgatambuura kĩrĩa yooraga, na kĩrĩa gĩatigara ĩkarangĩrĩria na magũrũ. Yarĩ na ngũũrani na nyamũ icio ingĩ cionekete mbere yayo, na yarĩ na hĩa ikũmi.
8 Y bihelde the hornes, and lo! an other litil horn cam forth of the myddis of tho, and thre of the firste hornes weren drawun out fro the face therof; and lo! iyen as iyen of a man weren in this horn, and a mouth spekynge grete thingis.
“Rĩrĩa ndeciiragia ũhoro wa hĩa icio-rĩ, ngĩona hau mbere yakwa harĩ na rũhĩa rũngĩ, na rwarĩ rũnini, rũkĩmera gatagatĩ ka icio ingĩ; nacio hĩa ithatũ cia iria ciarĩ cia mbere ikĩmunyũka biũ, ikĩrweherera. Naruo rũhĩa rũu rwarĩ na maitho ta ma mũndũ na kanua kaaragia ndeto cia mwĩtĩĩo.
9 Y bihelde, til that trones weren set, and the elde of daies sat; his cloth was whijt as snow, and the heeris of his heed weren as cleene wolle, his trone was as flawmes of fier, hise wheelis weren fier kyndlid.
“O ndorete ngĩona, “itĩ cia ũnene ikĩigwo handũ ha cio, nake Ũrĩa-Ũtũire-ho-kuuma-o-Tene agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake. Nacio nguo ciake cierũhĩte ta ira; na njuĩrĩ cia mũtwe wake ikerũha ta guoya wa ngʼondu. Gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene kĩarĩrĩmbũkaga nĩnĩmbĩ cia mwaki, namo magũrũ makĩo maarĩ ma mwaki ũgwakana.
10 A flood of fier and rennynge faste yede out fro his face, a thousynde thousynde mynistriden to hym, and ten sithis a thousynde sithis an hundrid thousynde stoden niy hym; the dom sat, and bookis weren opened.
Rũũĩ rwa mwaki nĩ rwathereraga ruumĩte hau mbere yake. Nake agatungatĩrwo nĩ ndungata ngiri maita ngiri; na andũ ngiri ikũmi maita ngiri ikũmi makarũgama mbere yake. Igooti rĩgĩikara thĩ rĩciirithanie, namo mabuku makĩhingũrwo.
11 Y bihelde for the vois of grete wordis whiche thilke horn spak; and Y siy that the beeste was slayn, and his bodi was perischid, and was youun to be brent in fier.
“Ningĩ ngĩthiĩ na mbere gũcũthĩrĩria nĩ ũndũ wa ciugo cia mwĩgaatho iria rũhĩa rũu rwaragia. Ngĩikara ndorete nginya nyamũ ĩyo ĩkĩũragwo, na mwĩrĩ wayo ũkĩanangwo na ũgĩikio thĩinĩ wa mwaki ũcio wakanaga.
12 And Y siy that the power of othere beestis was takun awei, and the tymes of lijf weren ordeyned to hem, til to tyme and tyme.
(Nyamũ icio ingĩ nĩciatuunyĩtwo ũhoti wacio wa gwathana, no nĩcietĩkĩrĩtio ciikarange muoyo kwa ihinda.)
13 Therfor Y bihelde in the visyoun of niyt, and lo! as a sone of man cam with the cloudis of heuene; and he cam fulli til to the elde of daies, and in the siyt of hym thei offriden hym.
“Ningĩ-rĩ, ũtukũ nĩndonire kĩoneki, ngĩona hau mbere yakwa harĩ na mũndũ wahaanaga ta mũrũ wa mũndũ, agĩũka arĩ igũrũ rĩa matu. Nake agĩkuhĩrĩria Ũcio-Ũtũire-ho-kuuma-o-Tene na agĩtwarwo harĩa aarĩ.
14 And he yaf to hym power, and onour, and rewme, and alle the puplis, lynagis, and langagis schulen serue hym; his power is euerlastynge power, that schal not be takun awei, and his rewme, that schal not be corrupt.
Nake akĩheo wathani, na riiri, na hinya wa gwathana; nacio iruka ciothe, na ndũrĩrĩ, na andũ a mĩario yothe makĩmũhooya. Wathani wake nĩ wathani wa gũtũũra tene na tene, na ndũgaathira, naguo ũthamaki wake ndũrĩ hĩndĩ ũkaanangwo.
15 My spirit hadde orrour, ether hidousnesse; Y, Danyel, was aferd in these thingis, and the siytis of myn heed disturbliden me.
“Niĩ Danieli nĩndatangĩkire roho-inĩ, nacio cioneki iria ciahĩtũkĩire meciiria-inĩ makwa igĩĩthĩĩnia mũno.
16 Y neiyede to oon of the stonderis niy, and Y axide of hym the treuthe of alle these thingis. And he seide to me the interpretyng of wordis, and he tauyte me.
Ngĩkuhĩrĩria ũmwe wa acio maarũngiĩ hau, ngĩmũũria andaarĩrie ma ya ũhoro ũcio wothe. “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩndaũrĩra maũndũ macio mothe, akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ:
17 These foure grete beestis ben foure rewmes, that schulen rise of erthe.
‘Nyamũ icio inya nene nĩ mothamaki mana marĩa makaarahũka gũkũ thĩ.
18 Forsothe hooli men schulen take the rewme of hiyeste God, and thei schulen holde the rewme, til in to the world, and `til in to the world of worldis.
No rĩrĩ, andũ arĩa atheru a Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno nĩo makaamũkĩra ũthamaki na matũũre naguo nginya tene, ĩĩ, ti-itherũ, matũũre naguo nginya tene na tene.’
19 Aftir these thingis Y wolde lerne diligentli of the fourthe beeste, that was greetli vnlijk fro alle, and was ful ferdful, the teeth and nailis therof weren of irun; it eet, and made lesse, and defoulide with hise feet othere thingis.
“Ningĩ ngĩenda kũmenya gĩtũmi kĩa nyamũ ĩyo ya kana ĩrĩa yarĩ na ngũũrani na icio ingĩ na yarĩ ya kũmakania mũno, ĩrĩ na magego mayo ma kĩgera na ndwara cia gĩcango, nyamũ ĩyo yahehenjaga na ĩgatambuuranga kĩrĩa yooraga, na ĩkarangĩrĩria na magũrũ kĩrĩa gĩatigara.
20 And of ten hornes whiche it hadde in the heed, and of the tother horn, that cam forth, bifore which thre hornes fellen doun, and of that horn that hadde iyen, and a mouth spekynge grete thingis, and was grettere than othere;
O na ningĩ ngĩenda kũmenya ũhoro wa hĩa icio ikũmi ciarĩ mũtwe wayo na wa rũhĩa rũu rũngĩ rwacookire kũmera, o na wa hĩa icio ithatũ ciamunyũkire rũu rũngĩ rwamera, menye ũhoro wa rũhĩa rũu ruonagwo ta rwarĩ rũnene gũkĩra icio ingĩ, na rwarĩ na maitho na kanua kaaragia ndeto cia mwĩgaatho.
21 I bihelde, and lo! thilke horn made batel ayens hooli men, and hadde maistrie of hem,
O njũũthĩrĩirie-rĩ, rũhĩa rũu rũgĩtharĩkĩra andũ arĩa atheru, rũkĩrũa nao na rũkĩmahoota,
22 til the elde of daies cam, and hiy God yaf doom to hooli men; and lo! tyme cam, and hooli men goten rewme.
o nginya rĩrĩa Ũcio-Ũtũire-ho-kuuma-o-Tene ookire na agĩtuĩra andũ acio atheru a Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno ciira wa kĩhooto, narĩo ihinda rĩgĩkinya makĩĩgwatĩra ũthamaki.
23 And he seide thus, The fourthe beeste schal be the fourthe rewme in erthe, that schal be more than alle rewmes, and it schal deuoure al erthe, and it schal defoule, and make lesse that erthe.
“Ningĩ akĩndaarĩria akĩnjiguithia atĩrĩ: ‘Nyamũ ĩyo ya kana nĩ ũthamaki wa kana ũrĩa ũkaagĩa gũkũ thĩ. Ũgaakorwo ũrĩ na ngũũrani na mothamaki marĩa mangĩ mothe, na nĩũkaniina thĩ yothe, ũmĩrangĩrĩrie na ũmĩhehenje.
24 Forsothe ten hornes schulen be ten kyngis of that rewme; and another kyng schal rise after hem, and he schal be miytiere than the formere, and he schal make low thre kyngis.
Nacio hĩa icio ikũmi nĩ athamaki ikũmi arĩa makoima thĩinĩ wa ũthamaki ũcio. Na thuutha wao mũthamaki ũngĩ nĩakarahũka, ũrĩ na ngũũrani na arĩa angĩ maarĩ mbere yake; na nĩagatooria athamaki acio atatũ.
25 And he schal speke wordis ayens the hiy God, and he schal defoule the seyntis of the hiyeste; and he schal gesse, that he mai chaunge tymes and lawis; and thei schulen be youun in to his hondis, til to tyme, and times, and the half of tyme.
Nĩakaaria ndeto cia gũcambia Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno, na ahinyĩrĩrie andũ ake arĩa atheru, o na agerie kũgarũra mahinda na mawatho marĩa matue. Nao andũ arĩa atheru nĩmakaneanwo moko-inĩ make kwa ihinda rĩmwe, na mahinda meerĩ, na nuthu ya ihinda.
26 And doom schal sitte, that the power be takun awei, and be al to-brokun, and perische til in to the ende.
“‘No igooti nĩrĩgaikara thĩ rĩciirithanie, na thuutha wa ũguo acooke atunywo wathani wake, na wanangwo biũ nginya tene.
27 Sotheli that the rewme, and power, and the greetnesse of rewme, which is vndur ech heuene, be youun to the puple of the seintis of the hiyeste, whos rewme is euerlastynge rewme, and alle kingis schulen serue, and obeie to hym.
Ningĩ wathani, na ũhoti, na ũnene wa mothamaki marĩa marĩ gũkũ thĩ guothe cinengerwo andũ arĩa atheru, andũ a Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno. Ũthamaki wake nĩ ũthamaki wa gũtũũra nginya tene na tene, nao aathani othe nĩmakamũhooyaga na mamwathĩkagĩre.’
28 Hidur to is the ende of the word. Y, Danyel, was disturblid myche in my thouytis, and my face was chaungid in me; forsothe Y kepte the word in myn herte.
“Ũhoro ũcio ũgĩthirĩra hau. Niĩ Danieli-rĩ, nĩndatangĩkire mũno meciiria-inĩ makwa, na ngĩtukia gĩthiithi, no ngĩikara ngĩĩcũũranagia ũhoro ũcio ngoro-inĩ yakwa.”
