Daniel 7
1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel hath seen a dream, and the visions of his head on his bed, then the dream he hath written, the chief of the things he hath said.
E higa mokwongo mar loch Belshazar ruoth Babulon, Daniel noleko kendo noneno fweny mopogore opogore kane oyudo oyweyo e kitandane. Nondiko lekneno e kitabu.
2 Answered hath Daniel and said, 'I was seeing in my vision by night, and lo, the four winds of the heavens are coming forth to the great sea;
Daniel nowacho niya, “E fwenyna ma naneno gotieno, ne angʼicho, kendo e nyima ne nitie yembe angʼwen mag polo mane yuko nam maduongʼ.
3 and four great beasts are coming up from the sea, diverse one from another.
Ondiegi angʼwen moko malich, ma moro ka moro opogore gi nyawadgi, nowuok koa e nam.
4 The first [is] like a lion, and it hath an eagle's wings. I was seeing till that its wings have been plucked, and it hath been lifted up from the earth, and on feet as a man it hath been caused to stand, and a heart of man is given to it.
“Ondiek mokwongo ne chalo gi sibuor, kendo bwombene ne chalo gi mag ongo. Kane pod angʼiye to ne aneno ka bwombene olwar piny kendo ondiegino nochungʼ gi tiendene ka dhano, kendo nomiye paro ka mar dhano.
5 And lo, another beast, a second, like to a bear, and to the same authority it hath been raised, and three ribs [are] in its mouth, between its teeth, and thus they are saying to it, Rise, consume much flesh.
“Bangʼe ne achako aneno ondiek mar ariyo, mane chalo gi dubu. Ondiegino nonindo gibathe kotingʼo ngʼede adek e dhoge kendo ne awinjo dwol moro kanyise ni, ‘Aa malo kendo ichiem nyaka iyiengʼ!’
6 'After this I was seeing, and lo, another like a leopard, and it hath four wings of a fowl on its back, and four heads hath the beast, and dominion is given to it.
“Bangʼ mano, ne achako aneno ondiek mar adek mane chalo gi kwach. Ne en gi bwombe angʼwen e diengʼeye machalo gi bwombe winyo. Ondiegni ne nigi wiye angʼwen, kendo ne omiye teko mar bedo gi loch.
7 'After this I was seeing in the visions of the night, and lo, a fourth beast, terrible and fearful, and exceedingly strong; and it hath iron teeth very great, it hath consumed, yea, it doth break small, and the remnant with its feet it hath trampled; and it [is] diverse from all the beasts that [are] before it; and it hath ten horns.
“Bangʼ mano, kane pod aleko ne aneno ondiek mar angʼwen. Ne en ondiek manenore malich kendo man-gi teko ma kineno to ibuok malich kendo luoro maki. Ne en gi leke madongo machalo nyinyo; nosiko kochiemo achiema kendo gimoro amora mane odongʼ nonyono piny gi tiendene. En nopogore gi ondiegi adek mokwongo ka bende ne en gi tunge apar.
8 'I was considering about the horns, and lo, another horn, a little one, hath come up between them, and three of the first horns have been eradicated from before it, and lo, eyes as the eyes of man [are] in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things.
“Kane oyudo pod aparo kuom tungego, ne aneno tungʼ moro matin kawuok e kind tunge mamokogo; tungʼno nomuko tunge adek mane ni kanyo chon mondo omi odongi. Tungʼni ne nigi wenge machalo gi wenge dhano kod dhok ma wuoyo gi sunga.
9 'I was seeing till that thrones have been thrown down, and the Ancient of Days is seated, His garment as snow [is] white, and the hair of his head [is] as pure wool, His throne flames of fire, its wheels burning fire.
“Kane oyudo pod angʼicho, “kombe mag loch ne oketi kanyo Kendo Ngʼat Machon Manyaka nene nobet e kome. Lepe ne tar ka pe, yie wiye ne rachar ka yier rombe. Kom duongʼ mare ne chalo mach maliel kendo tiendene nosiko kotimo mach maliel aliela.
10 A flood of fire is proceeding and coming forth from before Him, a thousand thousands do serve Him, and a myriad of myriads before Him do rise up, the Judge is seated, and the books have been opened.
Mach nodhuolore e nyime, mana ka aora mamol! Ji gana gi gana ne tiyone; kendo ji tara gi tara nochungʼ e nyime. Bangʼe noel kitepe eka bura nochakore.
11 'I was seeing, then, because of the voice of the great words that the horn is speaking, I was seeing till that the beast is slain, and his body hath been destroyed, and given to the burning fire;
“Eka namedo winjo weche mag achaya mane wuok e tungʼno, kendo nomedo timo kamano nyaka ondiegno nonegi mi ringre nokethi kendo obol e mach makakni.
12 and the rest of the beasts have caused their dominion to pass away, and a prolongation in life is given to them, till a season and a time.
Ondiegi mamoko noyudo osetiek lochgi, to makmana nine pod owegi mangima kuom ndalo manok.
13 'I was seeing in the visions of the night, and lo, with the clouds of the heavens as a son of man was [one] coming, and unto the Ancient of Days he hath come, and before Him they have brought him near.
“Bende ne achako aneno fweny moro gotieno mi aneno ngʼat moro machalo wuod dhano kalor biro e boche polo, kodhi ir Nyasaye Maratego kendo notelne nyaka e nyime.
14 And to him is given dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, and all peoples, nations, and languages do serve him, his dominion [is] a dominion age-during, that passeth not away, and his kingdom that which is not destroyed.
Eka nomiye teko gi duongʼ kod loch; kendo ogendini duto gi pinje duto kod jogo duto mawacho dhok mopogore opogore nolame. Lochne en loch mosiko nyaka chiengʼ, kendo pinyruodhe en pinyruoth ma ok nyal tieki ngangʼ.
15 'Pierced hath been my spirit — I, Daniel — in the midst of the sheath, and the visions of my head trouble me;
“An Daniel, chunya nochandore, kendo fweny mane aneno mopogore opogore nodhiera nono.
16 I have drawn near unto one of those standing, and the certainty I seek from him of all this; and he hath said to me, yea, the interpretation of the things he hath caused me to know:
Ne adhi ir achiel kuom joma nochungʼ kanyo mi napenje tiend lek mane aseleko. “Omiyo nonyisa, tiend wechegi kowacho niya,
17 'These great beasts, that [are] four, [are] four kings, they rise up from the earth;
‘Ondiegi angʼwen malichgo gin pinjeruodhi angʼwen mabiro bet e piny e ndalo mabiro.
18 and receive the kingdom do the saints of the Most High, and they strengthen the kingdom unto the age, even unto the age of the ages.
To jomaler mar Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo ema biro rito pinjego kendo ginibed gi loch nyaka chiengʼ.’
19 'Then I wished for certainty concerning the fourth beast, that was diverse from them all, fearful exceedingly; its teeth of iron, and its nails of brass, it hath devoured, it doth break small, and the remnant with its feet it hath trampled;
“Bangʼ mano ne adwaro ngʼeyo tiend ngech ondiek mar angʼwen, ondiegno nopogore gi ondiegi mamoko kendo nomiyo ji luoro ahinya; ne en gi leke mag chuma kod kogno mag mula kendo nosiko kochiemo achiema kendo onyono gi tiende gimoro amora mane odongʼ piny.
20 and concerning the ten horns that [are] in its heads, and of the other that came up, and before which three have fallen, even of that horn that hath eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and whose appearance [is] great above its companions.
Bende nadwaro ngʼeyo kuom tunge apar mane otwi e wiye kendo kuom tungʼ machielo mane owuok bangʼe momuko tunge adek mamokoka; tungʼno ne nigi wenge kendo weche mag sunga ne wuok e dhoge. Tungʼno ne nenore maduongʼ moloyo tunge moko.
21 'I was seeing, and this horn is making war with the saints, and hath prevailed over them,
Kane pod amedo ngʼicho to tungʼni notugo lweny gi jomaler mi oloyogi,
22 till that the Ancient of Days hath come, and judgment is given to the saints of the Most High, and the time hath come, and the saints have strengthened the kingdom.
nyaka ne Nyasaye Maratego obiro mongʼado bura kachwako jomaler mar Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo, kendo kinde koro nosechopo ma jo-Nyasaye yude loch mar rito piny.
23 'Thus he said: The fourth beast is the fourth kingdom in the earth, that is diverse from all kingdoms, and it consumeth all the earth, and treadeth it down, and breaketh it small.
“Eka nonyisa niya: ‘Ondiek mar angʼwen en pinyruoth mar angʼwen mabiro bet e piny. Obiro pogore gi pinjeruodhi duto, kendo obiro mako piny duto, monyone kendo otieke chuth.
24 And the ten horns out of the kingdom [are] ten kings, they rise, and another doth rise after them, and it is diverse from the former, and three kings it humbleth;
Tunge apar gin ruodhi apar mabiro wuok e pinyruodhni. To bangʼ e ruoth moro biro wuok, mopogore gi mago motelo, kendo enolo adekgo.
25 and words as an adversary of the Most High it doth speak, and the saints of the Most High it doth wear out, and it hopeth to change seasons and law; and they are given into its hand, till a time, and times, and a division of a time.
Obiro wuoyo marach kuom Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo kendo obiro sando jo-Nyasaye koloko chike mag lemogi kod sewni mag-gi. Jo-Nyasaye nobed e bwo lochne kuom higni adek gi nus.
26 'And the Judge is seated, and its dominion they cause to pass away, to cut off, and to destroy — unto the end;
“‘Bangʼ mano bura nongʼadi, mi nomaye lochne duto mondo otieke chuth.
27 and the kingdom, and the dominion, even the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heavens, is given to the people — the saints of the Most High, His kingdom [is] a kingdom age-during, and all dominions do serve and obey Him.
Eka loch, gi teko kod duongʼ mag pinjeruodhi manie bwo polo noket e lwet jo-Nyasaye, ma gin jo-Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo. Pinyruodhe nobed pinyruoth mochwere, kendo ruodhi duto nolame kendo miye luor.’
28 'Hitherto [is] the end of the matter. I, Daniel, greatly do my thoughts trouble me, and my countenance is changed on me, and the matter in my heart I have kept.
“Mano e giko wechego. An, Daniel, wechego nochando chunya, mi nabuok kuom gik mane aneno, to kata kamano ne ok awachone ngʼato wechego.”
