Daniel 12
1 “Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, Mikael, mawudɔlawo ƒe amegã si dzɔa wò amewo ŋu la atso. Xaxaɣi si tɔgbi meva kpɔ o, tso dukɔwo ƒe gɔmedzedze va se ɖe ɣe ma ɣi la anɔ anyi. Ke le ɣe ma ɣi me, wo ame siwo ƒe ŋkɔwo woŋlɔ ɖe agbegbalẽ la me la akpɔ xɔxɔ.
'And at that time stand up doth Michael, the great head, who is standing up for the sons of thy people, and there hath been a time of distress, such as hath not been since there hath been a nation till that time, and at that time do thy people escape, every one who is found written in the book.
2 Ame gbogbo siwo le alɔ̃ dɔm le anyigba ƒe tume la anyɔ, ɖewo na agbe mavɔ, eye bubuawo na ŋukpe kple vlododo mavɔ.
'And the multitude of those sleeping in the dust of the ground do awake, some to life age-during, and some to reproaches — to abhorrence age-during.
3 Nunyalawo aklẽ abe dziƒoŋunuwo ene eye ame siwo fiaa dzɔdzɔenyenye ƒe mɔ ame geɖewo la hã aklẽ abe ɣletiviwo ene tegbetegbe.
And those teaching do shine as the brightness of the expanse, and those justifying the multitude as stars to the age and for ever.
4 Ke wò, Daniel, dzra nya siawo ɖo eye nàtre lãgbalẽgbalẽ la me nyawo nu va se ɖe esime nuwuwu ƒe ɣeyiɣi la naɖo. Ame geɖewo ayi afii kple afi mɛ be yewoadzi yewoƒe nunya ɖe edzi.”
And thou, O Daniel, hide the things, and seal the book till the time of the end, many do go to and fro, and knowledge is multiplied.'
5 Tete nye, Daniel, mefɔ mo dzi eye, kpɔ ɖa, ame bubu eve le tsitre ɖe nye ŋkume, ɖeka le tɔsisi la ƒe go sia dzi eye evelia le go kemɛ dzi.
And I have looked — I, Daniel — and lo, two others are standing, one here at the edge of the flood, and one there at the edge of the flood,
6 Wo dometɔ ɖeka gblɔ na ame si do aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu eye wòle tsitre ɖe tɔsisi la tame be, “Va sa ɖe ɣe ka ɣi hafi nu manyatalenu siawo ava eme?”
and he saith to the one clothed in linen, who [is] upon the waters of the flood, 'Till when [is] the end of these wonders?'
7 Ŋutsu si do aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu eye wòle tsitre ɖe tɔsisi la tame la, do eƒe ɖusibɔ kple miabɔ ɖe dziƒo eye mese wòta ame si le agbe tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me la gblɔ be, “Anye le ƒe ɖeka, ƒe eve alo ƒe afã megbe, nenye be woŋe ame kɔkɔeawo ƒe ŋusẽ mlɔeba la, ekema nu siawo katã ava eme.”
And I hear the one clothed in linen, who [is] upon the waters of the flood, and he doth lift up his right hand and his left unto the heavens, and sweareth by Him who is living to the age, that, 'After a time, times, and a half, and at the completion of the scattering of the power of the holy people, finished are all these.'
8 Mesee gake nyemese egɔme o. Ale mebiae be, “Nye Aƒetɔ, nu ka anye nu siawo ƒe metsonu?”
And I have heard, and I do not understand, and I say, 'O my lord, what [is] the latter end of these?'
9 Eɖo eŋu nam be, “Daniel, heyi elabena wowu nyawo nu eye wotre wo nu va se ɖe esime nuwuwu ƒe ɣeyiɣi la naɖo.
And he saith, 'Go, Daniel; for hidden and sealed [are] the things till the time of the end;
10 Woakɔ ame geɖewo ŋu, awɔ wo dzadzɛe, ɖiƒoƒo aɖeke manɔ wo ŋu o gake ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ya aganɔ vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi dzi ko. Ame vɔ̃ɖi aɖeke mase egɔme o gake nunyalawo ya ase egɔme.
Purify themselves, yea, make themselves white, yea, refined are many: and the wicked have done wickedly, and none of the wicked understand, and those acting wisely do understand;
11 “Tso esime wotsi gbe sia gbe ƒe vɔsawo nu, eye woɖo ŋunyɔnu si hea gbegblẽ vɛ te la, anye ŋkeke akpe ɖeka, alafa eve blaasiekɛ.
and from the time of the turning aside of the perpetual [sacrifice], and to the giving out of the desolating abomination, [are] days a thousand, two hundred, and ninety.
12 Woayra ame si do dzi, eye wònɔ te va se ɖe ŋkeke akpe ɖeka, alafa etɔ̃ blaetɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃ ƒe nuwuwu.
O the blessedness of him who is waiting earnestly, and doth come to the days, a thousand, three hundred, thirty and five.
13 “Ke wò la, lé wò mɔ ɖe asi va se ɖe nuwuwu. Wò la, àdzudzɔ, eye le ŋkekeawo ƒe nuwuwu la, àtsi tsitre, eye nàxɔ domenyinu si nye wò gome.”
And thou, go on to the end, then thou dost rest, and dost stand in thy lot at the end of the days.'
