< Daniel 9 >

1 In the firste yeer of Darius, the sone of Assuerus, of the seed of Medeis, that was emperour on the rewme of Caldeis,
Nʼafọ mbụ, nke Daraiọs nwa Ahasuerọs (onye agbụrụ Midia), onye e mere eze nke alaeze ndị Kaldịa,
2 in the firste yeer of his rewme, Y, Danyel, vndurstood in bookis the noumbre of yeeris, of which noumbre the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye, the profete, that seuenti yeer of desolacioun of Jerusalem schulde be fillid.

3 And Y settide my face to my Lord God, to preie and to biseche in fastyngis, in sak, and aische.
Nʼihi nke a, echere m Onyenwe anyị Chineke ihu, rịọ ya arịrịọ, site nʼekpere na arịrịọ amara, nʼibu ọnụ, na iyikwa akwa mkpe na ntụ.
4 And Y preiede my Lord God, and Y knoulechide, and seide, Y biseche, thou Lord God, greet and ferdful, kepynge couenaunt and mercy to hem that louen thee, and kepen thi comaundementis.
Ekpere m ekpere nye Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke m, ma kwupụta sị, “Onyenwe anyị, onye dị ukwuu, dị oke egwu. Onye na-edebe ọgbụgba ndụ nke ịhụnanya nke ndị hụrụ ya nʼanya na-edebekwa iwu ya niile.
5 We han synned, we han do wickidnesse, we diden unfeithfuli, and yeden awei, and bowiden awei fro thi comaundementis and domes.
Ma anyị emehiela meekwa ihe nʼadịghị mma megide gị. Anyị emeela ajọ omume, anyị enupula isi megide gị, gbakụtakwa iwu gị niile azụ.
6 We obeieden not to thi seruauntis, profetis, that spaken in thi name to oure kyngis, to oure princes, and to oure fadris, and to al the puple of the lond.
Anyị e geghịkwa ndị ozi gị bụ ndị amụma ntị, bụ ndị gwara ndị eze anyị, na ndị ọchịchị anyị, na nna anyị ha, ma mmadụ niile bi nʼala anyị okwu nʼaha gị.
7 Lord, riytfulnesse is to thee, forsothe schenschipe of face is to vs, as is to dai to a man of Juda, and to the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and to al Israel, to these men that ben niy, and to these men that ben afer in alle londis, to which thou castidist hem out for the wickidnessis of hem, in whiche, Lord, thei synneden ayens thee.
“Onyenwe anyị, ị bụ onye ezi omume, ma nʼụbọchị taa anyị bụ ndị ihere dịrị, ndị Juda, ndị Jerusalem na ndị Izrel niile, ndị nọ nso ma ndị nọ nʼebe dị anya ebe ị chụgara ha nʼihi ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi anyị nye gị.
8 Schame of face is to vs, to oure kyngis, to oure princes, and to oure fadris, that synneden;
Onyenwe anyị, ihere emegbuola anyị. Ihere dịrị ndị eze anyị, dịkwara ndịisi anyị na ndị nna anyị, nʼihi na anyị emeela mmehie megide gị.
9 but merci and benygnytee is to thee, oure Lord God. For we yeden awei fro thee,
Ma Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị ka obi ebere na mgbaghara niile dịrị, nʼihi na anyị enupurula gị isi.
10 and herden not the vois of oure Lord God, that we schulden go in the lawe of hym, whiche he settide to vs bi hise seruauntis, profetis.
Anyị erubeghị isi nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị, maọbụ debe iwu ahụ o nyere anyị site nʼaka ndị ohu ha bụ ndị amụma.
11 And al Israel braken thi lawe, and bowiden awei, that thei herden not thi vois; and cursyng, and wlatyng, which is writun in the book of Moises, the seruaunt of God, droppide on vs, for we synneden to hym.
Ndị Izrel niile enupula isi nʼiwu gị, wezuga onwe ha, jụ ige gị ntị. “Ya mere, ọbụbụ ọnụ ahụ niile e dere nʼiwu Mosis, odibo nke Chineke adakwasịla anyị, nʼihi na anyị emehiela megide gị.
12 And he ordeynede hise wordis, whiche he spak on vs, and on oure princes, that demyden vs, that thei schulden brynge in on vs greet yuel, what maner yuel was neuer vndur al heuene, bi that that is doon in Jerusalem,
O meela ka okwu ya guzosie ike, bụ nke o kwuru megide anyị na ndị ndu anyị site nʼiwetara anyị oke mbibi a. Nke bụ na o nwebeghị mgbe ọbụla e merela ụdị ihe emere na Jerusalem nʼokpuru eluigwe.
13 as it is writun in the lawe of Moises. Al this yuel cam on vs, and, oure Lord God, we preieden not thi face, that we schulden turne ayen fro oure wickidnessis, and schulden thenke thi treuthe.
Ọ bụ dịka e si dee ya nʼiwu Mosis, ka mbibi a niile bịakwasịrị anyị, ma anyị achọbeghị ihuọma Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị, na ichegharị site na mmehie anyị chee uche banyere eziokwu gị.
14 And the Lord wakide on malice, and brouyt it on vs; oure Lord God is iust in alle his werkis whiche he made, for we herden not his vois.
Onyenwe anyị kpachara anya mee ka nsogbu a bịakwasị anyị. Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị, Chineke anyị, bụ onye ezi omume nʼihe niile ọ na-eme, ma anyị jụrụ irubere ya isi.
15 And now, Lord God, that leddist thi puple out of the lond of Egipt in strong hond, and madist to thee a name bi this dai, we han synnede,
“Ma ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị Chineke, onye ji aka dị ike kpọpụta ndị nke ya nʼala Ijipt, i meere onwe gị aha nke na-adịgide ruo taa. Anyị mere mmehie, ma mejọọkwa.
16 we han do wickidnesse, Lord, ayens thi riytfulnesse. Y biseche, thi wraththe and thi stronge veniaunce be turned awey fro thi citee Jerusalem, and fro thi hooli hil; for whi for oure synnes, and for the wickidnessis of oure fadris, Jerusalem and thi puple ben in schenschipe, to alle men bi oure cumpas.
Onyenwe anyị, dịka ezi omume gị si dị, wezuga iwe gị na oke iwe gị nʼebe Jerusalem nọ, bụ obodo gị, na ugwu nsọ gị. Mmehie anyị na njehie nna anyị ha emeela ka Jerusalem na ndị gị bụrụ ihe ịkwa emo nye ndị gbara anyị gburugburu.
17 But now, oure God, here thou the preyer of thi seruaunt, and the bisechyngis of him, and schewe thi face on thi seyntuarie, which is forsakun.
“Ma ugbu a, Chineke anyị, biko nụrụ ekpere na arịrịọ ohu gị. Nʼihi aha gị, Onyenwe anyị jiri amara mee ka ihe si nʼihu gị mụkwasị ụlọnsọ gị nke tọgbọrọ nʼefu.
18 My God, for thi silf boowe doun thin eere, and here; opene thin iyen, and se oure desolacioun, and the citee, on which thi name is clepid to help. For not in oure iustifiyngis we setten forth mekeli preiers bifor thi face, but in thi many merciful doyngis.

19 Lord, here thou; Lord, be thou plesid, perseyue thou, and do; my Lord God, tarie thou not, for thi silf, for thi name is clepid to help on the citee, and on thi puple.
Onyenwe anyị nụrụ! Onyenwe anyị, gbaghara anyị! Onyenwe anyị biko, gee ntị ma zaa anyị. Nʼihi aha gị, O Chineke m, anọkwala ọdụ, nʼihi obodo gị, na ndị nke gị bụ aha gị ka a na-akpọ ha.”
20 And whanne Y spak yit, and preiede, and knoulechide my synnes, and the synnes of my puple Israel, that Y schulde sette forth mekeli my preieris in the siyt of my God, for the hooli hil of my God,
Mgbe m nọ na-ekwu okwu na-ekpe ekpere, na-ekwupụta mmehie m na mmehie ndị m Izrel, na-arịọkwa amara nʼihu Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke m maka ugwu dị nsọ nke Chineke m,
21 the while Y spak yit in my preyer, lo! the man Gabriel, whom Y hadde seyn in visioun at the bigynnyng, flei soone, and touchide me in the tyme of euentid sacrifice;
ebe m ka nọ na-ekpere, Gebrel, nwoke ahụ m hụrụ nʼọhụ na mbụ, feere ọsịịsọ bịakwute m nʼoge a na-achụ aja nke uhuruchi.
22 and he tauyt me, and he spak to me, and seide, Danyel, now Y yede out, that Y schulde teche thee, and thou schuldist vndurstonde.
Ọ bịara sị m, “Daniel, a bịara m ugbu a inye gị uche na nghọta.
23 Fro the bigynnyng of thi preieris a word yede out. Forsothe Y cam to schewe to thee, for thou art a man of desiris; therfor perseyue thou the word, and vndurstonde thou the visioun.
Na mbido oge ị malitere ịrịọ arịrịọ, ka okwu ọsịsa pụtara. Abịara m ịgwa gị ya, nʼihi na ị bụ onye a na-akwanyere ugwu nke ukwuu. Ya mere, tụgharịa uche nʼokwu a, ghọtakwa ọhụ a.
24 Seuenti woukis of yeeris ben abreggid on thi puple, and on thin hooli citee, that trespassyng be endid, and synne take an ende, and that wickidnesse be doon awei, and euerlastynge riytfulnesse be brouyt, and that the visioun, and prophesie be fillid, and the hooli of seyntis be anoyntid.
“Iri izu ụka asaa, ka e dere nʼiwu nye ndị gị na obodo nsọ gị iji kwụsị njehie, ime ka mmehie kwụsị, na ịchụ aja maka ikpuchi ajọ omume na iweta ezi omume nke ga-adị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, na ịkachi ọhụ na amụma ahụ akara, nakwa ite Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ mmanụ.
25 Therfor wite thou, and perseyue; fro the goyng out of the word, that Jerusalem be bildid eft, til to Crist, the duyk, schulen be seuene woukis of yeeris and two and sixti woukis of yeeris; and eft the street schal be bildid, and wallis, in the angwisch of tymes.
“Ma mara, werekwa uche ghọta nke a: Site nʼoge e nyere iwu ka e wugharịa Jerusalem tutu ruo mgbe Onye ahụ e tere mmanụ, onyendu ahụ ga-abịa, ga-abụ izu ụka asaa, na izu ụka iri isii na abụọ, a ga-ewughachi ya, na okporoụzọ ya, na olulu mmiri ya, maọbụ nʼime oge nsogbu.
26 And after two and sixti woukis `of yeeris Crist schal be slayn. And it schal not be his puple, that schal denye hym. And the puple with the duyk to comynge schal distrie the citee, and the seyntuarie; and the ende therof schal be distriyng, and after the ende of batel schal be ordeynede desolacioun.
Mgbe izu ụka iri isii na abụọ gasịrị, Onye ahụ e tere mmanụ ka a ga-egbu, ma o nweghị ihe ọ ga-enwe. Usuu agha nke onye ọchịchị ga-abịa bibie obodo na ụlọnsọ. Oge ikpeazụ ga-abịa dịka idee mmiri; agha ga-adịgide ruo nʼoge ọgwụgwụ, e kpebiela na ịla nʼiyi ga-adị.
27 Forsothe o wouk `of yeeris schal conferme the couenaunt to many men, and the offryng and sacrifice schal faile in the myddis of the wouke of yeeris; and abhomynacioun of desolacioun schal be in the temple, and the desolacioun schal contynue til to the parformyng and ende.
