< 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,
In anno primo Darii filii Assueri de semine Medorum qui imperavit super regnum Chaldaeorum
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.
Anno uno regni eius ego Daniel intellexi in libris numerum annorum de quo factus est sermo Domini ad Ieremiam prophetam ut complerentur desolationis Ierusalem septuaginta anni
3 And Y settide my face to my Lord God, to preie and to biseche in fastyngis, in sak, and aische.
Et posui faciem meam ad Dominum Deum meum rogare et deprecari in ieiuniis sacco et cinere
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.
Et oravi Dominum Deum meum et confessus sum et dixi Obsecro Domine Deus magne et terribilis custodiens pactum et misericordiam diligentibus te et custodientibus mandata tua
5 We han synned, we han do wickidnesse, we diden unfeithfuli, and yeden awei, and bowiden awei fro thi comaundementis and domes.
Peccavimus iniquitatem fecimus impie egimus et recessimus et declinavimus a mandatis tuis ac iudiciis
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.
Non obedivimus servis tuis prophetis qui locuti sunt in nomine tuo regibus nostris principibus nostris patribus nostris omnique populo terrae
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.
Tibi Domine iustitia nobis autem confusio faciei sicut est hodie viro Iuda et habitatoribus Ierusalem et omni Israel his qui prope sunt et his qui procul in universis terris ad quas eiecisti eos propter iniquitates eorum in quibus peccaverunt in te
8 Schame of face is to vs, to oure kyngis, to oure princes, and to oure fadris, that synneden;
Domine nobis confusio faciei regibus nostris principibus nostris et patribus nostris qui peccaverunt
9 but merci and benygnytee is to thee, oure Lord God. For we yeden awei fro thee,
Tibi autem Domino Deo nostro misericordia et propitiatio quia recessimus a te
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.
et non audivimus vocem Domini Dei nostri ut ambularemus in lege eius quam posuit nobis per servos suos prophetas
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.
Et omnis Israel praevaricati sunt legem tuam et declinaverunt ne audirent vocem tuam et stillavit super nos maledictio et detestatio quae scripta est in libro Moysi servi Dei quia peccavimus ei
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,
Et statuit sermones suos quos locutus est super nos et super principes nostros qui iudicaverunt nos ut superinduceret in nos magnum malum quale numquam fuit sub omni caelo secundum quod factum est in Ierusalem
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.
Sicut scriptum est in lege Moysi omne malum hoc venit super nos et non rogavimus faciem tuam Domine Deus noster ut reverteremur ab iniquitatibus nostris et cogitaremus veritatem tuam
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.
Et vigilavit Dominus super malitiam et adduxit eam super nos iustus Dominus Deus noster in omnibus operibus suis quae fecit non enim audivimus vocem eius
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,
Et nunc Domine Deus noster qui eduxisti populum tuum de Terra Aegypti in manu forti et fecisti tibi nomen secundum diem hanc peccavimus iniquitatem fecimus
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.
Domine in omnem iustitiam tuam avertatur obsecro ira tua et furor tuus a civitate tua Ierusalem et monte sancto tuo Propter peccata enim nostra et iniquitates patrum nostrorum Ierusalem et populus tuus in opprobrium sunt omnibus per circuitum nostrum
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.
Nunc ergo exaudi Deus noster orationem servi tui et preces eius et ostende faciem tuam super sanctuarium tuum quod desertum est propter temetipsum
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.
Inclina Deus meus aurem tuam et audi aperi oculos tuos et vide desolationem nostram et civitatem super quam invocatum est nomen tuum neque enim in iustificationibus nostris prosternimus preces ante faciem tuam sed in miserationibus tuis multis
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.
Exaudi Domine placare Domine attende et fac ne moreris propter temetipsum Deus meus quia nomen tuum invocatum est super civitatem et super populum tuum
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,
Cumque adhuc loquerer et orarem et confiterer peccata mea et peccata populi mei Israel et prosternerem preces meas in conspectu Dei mei pro monte sancto Dei mei
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;
Adhuc me loquente in oratione ecce vir Gabriel quem videram in visione a principio cito volans tetigit me in tempore sacrificii vespertini
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.
Et docuit me et locutus est mihi dixitque Daniel nunc egressus sum ut docerem te et intelligeres
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.
Ab exordio precum tuarum egressus est sermo ego autem veni ut indicarem tibi quia vir desideriorum es tu ergo animadverte sermonem et intellige visionem
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.
Septuaginta hebdomades abbreviatae sunt super populum tuum et super urbem sanctam tuam ut consummetur praevaricatio et finem accipiat peccatum et deleatur iniquitas et adducatur iustitia sempiterna et impleatur visio et prophetia et ungatur Sanctus sanctorum
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.
Scito ergo et animadverte Ab exitu sermonis ut iterum aedificetur Ierusalem usque ad Christum ducem hebdomades septem et hebdomades sexaginta duae erunt et rursum aedificabitur platea et muri in angustia temporum
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.
Et post hebdomades sexaginta duas occidetur Christus et non erit eius populus qui eum negaturus est Et civitatem et sanctuarium dissipabit populus cum duce venturo et finis eius vastitas et post finem belli statuta desolatio
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.
Confirmabit autem pactum multis hebdomada una et in dimidio hebdomadis deficiet hostia et sacrificium et erit in templo abominatio desolationis et usque ad consummationem et finem perseverabit desolatio
