Daniel 8
1 'In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision hath appeared unto me — I Daniel — after that which had appeared unto me at the beginning.
Nʼafọ nke atọ site na mgbe eze Belshaza bidoro ịbụ eze, mụ bụ Daniel hụrụ ọhụ ọzọ.
2 And I see in a vision, and it cometh to pass, in my seeing, and I [am] in Shushan the palace that [is] in Elam the province, and I see in a vision, and I have been by the stream Ulai.
Nʼime ọhụ, ahụrụ m onwe m nʼobodo Susa, nke bụ obodo ukwu ebe eze nwere isi ọchịchị ya, nʼobodo dị na mpaghara Elam. Eguzokwara m nʼakụkụ osimiri Ulai.
3 And I lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, a certain ram is standing before the stream, and it hath two horns, and the two horns [are] high; and the one [is] higher than the other, and the high one is coming up last.
Eweliri m anya elu, hụ otu ebule nwere mpi ogologo abụọ ka o guzo nʼakụkụ iyi, otu nʼime mpi abụọ ya ahụ bidoro ito ogologo karịa nke ọzọ.
4 I have seen the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no living creatures do stand before it, and there is none delivering out of its hand, and it hath done according to its pleasure, and hath exerted itself.
Mgbe m na-ele anya, ebule ahụ malitere iji mpi ya na-asọ ihe o bụla dị nʼọdịda anyanwụ na nʼugwu nakwa na ndịda. O nweghị anụ ọbụla nwere ike iguzogide ya, o nwekwaghị onye ọbụla pụrụ inyere ndị ọ lụsoro ọgụ aka. O mere ihe ọbụla masịrị ya si otu a dị ukwuu.
5 'And I have been considering, and lo, a young he-goat hath come from the west, over the face of the whole earth, whom none is touching in the earth; as to the young he-goat, a conspicuous horn [is] between its eyes.
Mgbe m nọ na-atule nke a, na mberede ahụrụ m otu mkpi si nʼọdịda anyanwụ pụta, na-agafe ụwa niile ma ụkwụ erughị ya ala. Mkpi a, nwere otu mpi nʼetiti anya abụọ ya.
6 And it cometh unto the ram possessing the two horns, that I had seen standing before the stream, and runneth unto it in the fury of its power.
Ọ bịaruru nso ebule ahụ nwere mpi abụọ nke m hụrụ guzo nʼakụkụ mmiri, were oke iwe na-agbata ọsọ nʼebe ọ nọ.
7 And I have seen it coming near the ram, and it becometh embittered at it, and smiteth the ram, and breaketh its two horns, and there hath been no power in the ram to stand before it, and it casteth it to the earth, and trampleth it down, and there hath been no deliverer to the ram out of its power.
Ahụrụ m ka o ji oke iwe lụso ebule ahụ ọgụ kujipụ mpi abụọ ya. Ebule ahụ enweghị ike iguzogide ya. Ọ tụdara ya nʼala, were ụkwụ ya zọda ya, ma na o nweghị onye ọbụla nwere ike ịnapụta ebule ahụ site nʼike ya.
8 'And the young he-goat hath exerted itself very much, and when it is strong, broken hath been the great horn; and come up doth a vision of four in its place, at the four winds of the heavens.
Mkpi ahụ, dịịrị ike nke ukwu, ma nʼuju ike ya a gbajipụrụ mpi ukwu ya. Nʼọnọdụ mpi ahụ mpi anọ puputara chee ihu nʼakụkụ anọ nke eluigwe,
9 And from the one of them come forth hath a little horn, and it exerteth itself greatly toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beauteous [land];
Otu ntakịrị mpi sitere nʼime otu nʼime mpi ndị ahụ pụta, tokwaa ma buo ibu nke ukwuu ruo na ndịda, na ọwụwa anyanwụ, ruokwa nʼala ọma ahụ
10 yea, it exerteth unto the host of the heavens, and causeth to fall to the earth of the host, and of the stars, and trampleth them down.
O toro tutu o ruo usuu nke eluigwe. Ọ kwatukwara ụfọdụ nʼime usuu nke eluigwe na ụfọdụ nʼime kpakpando nʼala, zọtọọ ha.
11 And unto the prince of the host it exerteth itself, and by it taken away hath been the continual [sacrifice], and thrown down the base of his sanctuary.
O mere onwe ya ka ọ dị ukwuu megide onyeisi nke usuu eluigwe, ọ napụrụ ya aja niile a na-achụ kwa ụbọchị ma tụdakwa ebe nsọ ya nʼala.
12 And the host is given up, with the continual [sacrifice], through transgression, and it throweth down truth to the earth, and it hath worked, and prospered.
Nʼihi nnupu isi, e nyefere usuu ndị nsọ na aja nsure ọkụ a na-esure kwa ụbọchị nʼaka ya. Ọ gara nʼihu nʼihe niile o mere. E mekwara ka eziokwu daa nʼala.
13 'And I hear a certain holy one speaking, and a certain holy one saith to the wonderful numberer who is speaking: Till when [is] the vision of the continual [sacrifice], and of the transgression, an astonishment, to make both sanctuary and host a treading down?
Mgbe ahụ, anụrụ m ka otu mmụọ ozi na-ajụ ibe ya sị, “Olee mgbe ọ ga-akwụsị bụ ọhụ maka aja nsure ọkụ a na-achụ kwa ụbọchị, njehie nke na-eweta ịtọgbọ nʼefu, inyefe ebe nsọ na maka ndị nsọ a na-azọtọ ụkwụ?”
14 And he saith unto me, Till evening — morning two thousand and three hundred, then is the holy place declared right.
Ọ gwara m, “A ga-echere tutu puku ụbọchị abụọ na narị ụbọchị atọ agafee, mgbe ahụ a ga-eme ka ebe nsọ ahụ dịghachikwa otu ọ dị na mbụ.”
15 'And it cometh to pass in my seeing — I, Daniel — the vision, that I require understanding, and lo, standing over-against me [is] as the appearance of a mighty one.
Mgbe mụ bụ Daniel nọ na-ele ọhụ ahụ na-achọkwa ịghọta ya, o nwere otu onye dịka nwoke bịara guzo nʼihu m.
16 And I hear a voice of man between [the banks of] Ulai, and he calleth and saith: Gabriel, cause this [one] to understand the appearance.
Ma anụrụ m olu otu onye na-akpọ oku site na mmiri Ulai sị, “Gebrel, kọwaara nwoke a ihe ọhụ a pụtara.”
17 And he cometh in near my station, and at his coming in I have been afraid, and I fall on my face, and he saith unto me: Understand, son of man, for at the time of the end [is] the vision.
Mgbe ọ bịara m nso nʼebe m guzo, egwu tụrụ m nke ukwu. Adara m, kpuo ihu m nʼala. Ma ọ gwara m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ghọta na ọhụ a bụ maka ọgwụgwụ oge.”
18 And in his speaking with me, I have been in a trance on my face, on the earth; and he cometh against me, and causeth me to stand on my station,
Mgbe ahụ ọ na-agwa m okwu, adara m nʼoke ụra, kpuo ihu nʼala. Ma o metụrụ m aka, nyere m aka iguzo ọtọ nʼụkwụ m.
19 and saith: Lo, I — I am causing thee to know that which is in the latter end of the indignation; for, at the appointed time [is] the end.
Ọ sịrị, “Lee, aga m agwa gị ihe na-aga ime nʼoge oke iwe. Nʼihi na ọhụ a bụ maka oge ọgwụgwụ ihe niile nke a kara aka.
20 'The ram that thou hast seen possessing two horns, [are] the kings of Media and Persia.
Ma banyere ebule ahụ ị hụrụ nke nwere mpi abụọ, na-egosi eze Midia na Peshịa.
21 And the young he-goat, the hairy one, [is] the king of Javan; and the great horn that [is] between its eyes is the first king;
Mkpi ahụ ị hụrụ na-egosi eze ndị Griis, nnukwu mpi nke dị nʼetiti anya ya abụọ bụ eze nke mbụ.
22 and that being broken, stand up do four in its place, four kingdoms from the nation do stand up, and not in its power.
Dịka mpi ahụ siri gbajie, mpi anọ ọzọ pupụta nʼọnọdụ ya, otu a ka alaeze anọ ga-esi pụta na mba ya, ma ike ha agaghị eru ka nke mbụ ahụ.
23 'And in the latter end of their kingdom, about the perfecting of the transgressors, stand up doth a king, fierce of face, and understanding hidden things;
“Ma na mgbe ọgwụgwụ alaeze ahụ, mgbe iko ndị nnupu isi juru, otu eze nke nwere ihu dị ike, na akọnuche na obi aghụghọ ga-ebili.
24 and his power hath been mighty, and not by his own power; and wonderful things he destroyeth, and he hath prospered, and wrought, and destroyed mighty ones, and the people of the Holy Ones.
Ọ ga-adị ike nke ukwuu, ma ọ bụghị nʼike onwe ya, ọ ga-eweta mbibi ga-eju anya. Ihe niile o metụrụ aka ga-agara ya nke ọma. Ọ ga-alakwa ndị dị ike na ndị nsọ nʼiyi.
25 'And by his understanding he hath also caused deceit to prosper in his hand, and in his heart he exerteth himself, and by ease he destroyeth many; and against the prince of princes he standeth — and without hand he is broken.
Ọ ga-eme ka aghụghọ baa ụba, ọ ga-ahụta onwe ya dịka onye dị elu karịa, mgbe ndị mmadụ na-eche na udo dị, ọ ga-ebibi ọtụtụ ndị. Ọ ga-eguzo megide Onyeisi nke ndịisi, a ga-ebibi ya ma ọ bụghị nʼike nke mmadụ.
26 And the appearance of the evening and of the morning, that is told, is true; and thou, hide thou the vision, for [it is] after many days.'
“Ọhụ a ị hụrụ, maka ụtụtụ na anyasị nke ekpughere gị bụ eziokwu, ma zobe ọhụ a, nʼihi na ọ dịrị ọtụtụ oge ka dị nʼihu.”
27 And I, Daniel, have been, yea, I became sick [for] days, and I rise, and do the king's work, and am astonished at the appearance, and there is none understanding.
Mụ bụ Daniel, nọrọ nʼọnọdụ ike ọgwụgwụ na ahụ esighị ike. Mgbe ụbọchị ole na ole gafekwara, ebiliri m bidokwa na-agagharị, na-arụkwa ọrụ eze, ma obi jọrọ m njọ nke ukwuu nʼihi nrọ ahụ, nʼihi na ọ karịrị m nghọta.
