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.
Ní ọdún àkọ́kọ́ Belṣassari ọba Babeli, Daniẹli lá àlá kan, ìran náà sì wá sí ọkàn an rẹ̀ bí ó ṣe sùn sórí ibùsùn un rẹ̀, ó sì kọ àlá náà sílẹ̀.
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;
Daniẹli sọ pé, “Nínú ìran mi lóru mo wò ó, mo sì rí afẹ́fẹ́ ọ̀run mẹ́rin tí ó ń ru omi Òkun ńlá sókè.
3 and four great beasts are coming up from the sea, diverse one from another.
Ẹranko ńlá mẹ́rin tí ó yàtọ̀ sí ara wọn, jáde láti inú Òkun náà.
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.
“Ẹranko kìn-ín-ní dàbí i kìnnìún, ó sì ní ìyẹ́ apá a idì, mo sì wò títí a fi fa ìyẹ́ apá rẹ̀ náà tu, a sì gbé e sókè kúrò ní ilẹ̀, a mú kí ó fi ẹsẹ̀ dúró bí ènìyàn, a sì fi àyà ènìyàn fún un.
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.
“Mo sì tún rí ẹranko kejì, ó rí bí irú ẹranko ńlá beari kan tí ó ń gbé ilẹ̀ òtútù; o gbé ara sókè ní apá kan, ó sì ní egungun ìhà mẹ́ta láàrín ẹ̀yìn in rẹ̀, wọ́n sì sọ fún un pé, ‘Dìde kí o sì jẹ ẹran tó pọ̀!’
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.
“Lẹ́yìn ìgbà náà, mo tún rí ẹranko kẹta ó rí bí àmọ̀tẹ́kùn. Ẹranko náà ní ìyẹ́ bí i ti ẹyẹ ní ẹ̀yìn, ó sì ní orí mẹ́rin, a sì fún un ní agbára láti ṣe ìjọba.
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.
“Lẹ́yìn èyí, nínú ìran mi ní òru mo tún rí ẹranko kẹrin, ó dẹ́rùbà ni, ó dáyà fo ni, ó sì lágbára gidigidi. Ó ní eyín irin ńlá; ó ń jẹ, ó sì ń fọ́ túútúú, ó sì fi ẹsẹ̀ tẹ èyí tókù mọ́lẹ̀. Ó yàtọ̀ sí gbogbo àwọn ẹranko ti ìṣáájú, ó sì ní ìwo mẹ́wàá.
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.
“Bí mo ṣe ń ronú nípa ìwo náà, nígbà náà ni mo rí ìwo mìíràn, tí ó kéré tí ó jáde wá ní àárín wọn; mẹ́ta lára àwọn ìwo ti àkọ́kọ́ sì fàtu níwájú u rẹ̀. Ìwo yìí ní ojú bí i ojú ènìyàn àti ẹnu tí ń sọ̀rọ̀ ìgbéraga.
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.
“Bí mo ṣe ń wò, “a gbé ìtẹ́ ọba kan kalẹ̀, ẹni ìgbàanì jókòó sórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀. Aṣọ rẹ̀ funfun bí ẹ̀gbọ̀n òwú; irun orí rẹ̀ funfun bí òwú, ìtẹ́ ọba rẹ̀ rí bí ọwọ́ iná. Àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ ń jó bí i iná.
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.
Odò iná ń sàn, ó ń jáde ní iwájú rẹ̀ wá. Àwọn ẹgbẹ̀rún lọ́nà ẹgbẹ̀rún ń ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún un; ọ̀nà ẹgbẹẹgbàárùn-ún nígbà ẹgbàárùn-ún dúró níwájú rẹ̀. Àwọn onídàájọ́ jókòó, a sì ṣí ìwé wọ̀n-ọn-nì sílẹ̀.
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;
“Nígbà náà ni mo bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní wò, nítorí àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ ìgbéraga tí ìwo náà ń sọ, mo wò títí a fi pa ẹranko náà, a sì pa á run, a sì jù ú sínú iná tí ń jó.
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.
A sì gba ìjọba lọ́wọ́ àwọn ẹranko yòókù, ṣùgbọ́n a fún wọn láààyè láti wà fún ìgbà díẹ̀.
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.
“Nínú ìran mi ní òru mo wò, mo rí ẹnìkan tí ó dúró sí iwájú u mi, ó rí bí ọmọ ènìyàn, ó ń bọ̀ wá nínú àwọsánmọ̀ ọ̀run, ó ń bọ̀ wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni ìgbàanì, a sì mú u wá sí iwájú rẹ̀.
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.
A sì fi ìjọba, ògo àti agbára ilẹ̀ ọba fún un; gbogbo ènìyàn, orílẹ̀-èdè àti èdè gbogbo wọn wólẹ̀ fún un. Ìjọba rẹ̀, ìjọba ayérayé ni, èyí tí kò le è kọjá, ìjọba rẹ̀ kò sì le è díbàjẹ́ láéláé.
15 'Pierced hath been my spirit — I, Daniel — in the midst of the sheath, and the visions of my head trouble me;
“Ọkàn èmi Daniẹli, dàrú, ìran tí ó wá sọ́kàn mi dẹ́rùbà mí.
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:
Mo lọ bá ọ̀kan nínú àwọn tí ó dúró níbẹ̀, mo sì bi í léèrè òtítọ́ ìtumọ̀ nǹkan wọ̀nyí. “Ó sọ fún mi, ó sì túmọ̀ àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún mi:
17 'These great beasts, that [are] four, [are] four kings, they rise up from the earth;
‘Àwọn ẹranko ńlá mẹ́rin yìí, ni ìjọba mẹ́rin tí yóò dìde ní ayé.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n, ẹni mímọ́ ti Ọ̀gá-ògo ni yóò gba ìjọba náà, yóò sì jogún un rẹ títí láé àti títí láéláé.’
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;
“Nígbà náà, ni mo fẹ́ mọ ìtumọ̀ òtítọ́ ẹranko kẹrin, tí ó yàtọ̀ sí àwọn yòókù, èyí tí ó dẹ́rùba ni gidigidi, tí ó ní eyín irin àti èékánná idẹ, ẹranko tí ó ń run tí ó sì ń pajẹ, tí ó sì ń fi ẹsẹ̀ tẹ èyí tókù mọ́lẹ̀.
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.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni mo sì fẹ́ mọ̀ nípa ìwo mẹ́wàá orí rẹ̀ àti nípa ìwo yòókù tí ó jáde, nínú èyí tí mẹ́ta lára wọn ṣubú, ìwo tí ó ní ojú, tí ẹnu rẹ̀ ń sọ̀rọ̀ ìgbéraga.
21 'I was seeing, and this horn is making war with the saints, and hath prevailed over them,
Bí mo ṣe ń wò, ìwo yìí ń bá àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ jagun, ó sì borí i wọn,
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.
títí ẹni ìgbàanì fi dé, ó sì ṣe ìdájọ́ ìdáláre fún àwọn ẹni mímọ́ Ọ̀gá-ògo, àsìkò náà sì dé nígbà tí àwọn ẹni mímọ́ náà jogún ìjọba.
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.
“Ó ṣe àlàyé yìí fún mi pé, ‘Ẹranko kẹrin ni ìjọba kẹrin tí yóò wà ní ayé. Yóò yàtọ̀ sí gbogbo àwọn ìjọba yòókù yóò sì pa gbogbo ayé run, yóò tẹ̀ ẹ́ mọ́lẹ̀, yóò sì fọ́ ọ́ sí wẹ́wẹ́.
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;
Ìwo mẹ́wàá ni ọba mẹ́wàá tí yóò wá láti inú ìjọba yìí. Lẹ́yìn tí wọn ní ọba mìíràn yóò dìde, ti yóò yàtọ̀ sí tí àwọn ti ìṣáájú, yóò sì borí ọba mẹ́ta.
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.
Yóò sọ̀rọ̀ odi sí Ọ̀gá-ògo, yóò sì pọ́n ẹni mímọ́ lójú, yóò sì gbèrò láti yí ìgbà àti òfin padà. A ó fi àwọn ẹni mímọ́ lé e lọ́wọ́ fún ìgbà díẹ̀, ní ọdún méjì àti ààbọ̀.
26 'And the Judge is seated, and its dominion they cause to pass away, to cut off, and to destroy — unto the end;
“‘Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn onídàájọ́ yóò jókòó, nígbà náà ni a ó gba agbára rẹ̀, a ó sì pa á rùn pátápátá títí ayé.
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.
Nígbà náà, ni a ó gba ìjọba, agbára àti títóbi ìjọba rẹ̀ ní abẹ́ gbogbo ọ̀run, a ó sì fi fún àwọn ẹni mímọ́, àwọn ènìyàn Ọ̀gá-ògo. Ìjọba rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ ìjọba títí ayé, gbogbo aláṣẹ ni yóò máa ṣe ìgbọ́ràn sí i, wọn yóò sì máa sìn ín.’
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.
“Báyìí ni àlá náà ṣe parí, ọkàn èmi Daniẹli sì dàrú gidigidi, nítorí èrò ọkàn mi yìí, ojú mi sì yípadà ṣùgbọ́n mo pa ọ̀ràn náà mọ́ ní ọkàn mi.”
