< Daniel 8 >

1 Le fia Belsazar ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe etɔ̃lia me la, nye Daniel mekpɔ ŋutega aɖe ɖe esi mekpɔ xoxo la yome.
In the thridde yeer of the rewme of Balthasar, the king, a visioun apperide to me. Y, Danyel, after that thing that Y hadde seyn in the bigynnyng,
2 Le nye ŋutega la me la, mekpɔ ɖokuinye be mele Susa fiadu la me le Elam nutogã me. Le ŋutega la me la, mekpɔ hã be menɔ Ulai tɔsisi la to.
siy in my visioun, whanne Y was in the castel of Susis, which is in the cuntrei of Helam; sotheli Y siy in the visioun that Y was on the yate Vlay.
3 Mefɔ kɔ dzi, eye mekpɔ agbo aɖe si to dzo eve, wòtsi tsitre ɖe tɔsisi la to; eƒe dzowo didi. Dzoawo dometɔ ɖeka nɔ kpuie wu evelia gake eva didi ɖe edzi emegbe.
And Y reiside myn iyen, and Y siy; and lo! o ram stood bifor the mareis, and hadde hiy hornes, and oon hiyere than the tother, and vndurwexynge.
4 Menɔ ŋku lém ɖe agboa ŋu esi wònɔ dzo dam ɖo ta ɣetoɖoƒe kple anyiehe kple dziehe. Lã aɖeke mete ŋu nɔ te ɖe enu o eye ɖeke mete ŋu xɔ nu léle le esi o. Ewɔ nu si dze eŋu eye wòkpɔ ŋusẽ ŋutɔ.
Aftirward Y siy the ram wyndewynge with hornes ayens the eest, and ayens the west, and ayens the north, and ayens the south; and alle beestis myyten not ayenstonde it, nether be delyuered fro the hondis of it. And it dide bi his wille, and was magnefied.
5 Esi menɔ nu sia ŋu bum la, gbɔ̃tsu aɖe tso ɣetoɖoƒe gome va le anyigba blibo la dzi tsam kple du gake eƒe afɔwo menɔ anyigba kam o. Gbɔ̃tsu la to dzo titri eve ɖe eƒe ŋkuwo dome.
And Y vndurstood. Lo! forsothe a buk of geet cam fro the west on the face of al erthe, and touchide not the erthe; forsothe the buk of geet hadde a noble horn bitwixe hise iyen;
6 Eva agbo si to dzo eve si mekpɔ le tɔsisi la to la gbɔ eye wòlũ ɖe edzi kple dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ.
and he cam til to that horned ram, which Y hadde seyn stondynge bifore the yate, and he ran in the fersnesse of his strengthe to that ram.
7 Mekpɔe wòlũ ɖe agbo la dzi dɔmedzoetɔe, tu dzoe eye wòŋe eƒe dzo eveawo. Ŋusẽ menɔ agbo la ŋu wòatrɔ anɔ te ɖe enu o. Gbɔ̃tsu la ƒoe ƒu anyi, tu afɔ edzi eye naneke mete ŋu ɖee le eƒe asi me o.
And whanne he hadde neiyid niy the ram, he hurlide fersly on hym, and he smoot the ram, and al to-brak tweyne hornes of hym, and the ram miyte not ayenstonde hym. And whanne he hadde sent that ram in to erthe, he defoulide; and no man miyte delyuere the ram fro his hond.
8 Gbɔ̃tsu la va xɔ ŋkɔ ale gbegbe gake le eƒe ŋusẽ ƒe kɔkɔƒe la, eƒe dzo biɖa la ŋe eye dzo titri ene to ɖe eteƒe do ɖe dziƒoya eneawo gbɔ.
Forsothe the buk of geet was maad ful greet; and whanne he hadde encreessid, the greet horn was brokun, and foure hornes risiden vndur it, bi foure wyndis of heuene.
9 Dzo bubu to tso dzoawo dometɔ ɖeka me. Dzo sia nɔ sue gake eva tsi le ŋusẽ me yi ɖe dziehe godo, va ɣedzeƒe, do ɖe Anyigba Nyui la gbɔ ke.
Forsothe of oon of hem yede out o litil horn, and it was maad greet ayens the south, and ayens the eest, and ayens the strengthe.
10 Etsi va se ɖe esime wòtɔ dziƒo ŋu, ena ɣletivi aɖewo ge va dze anyigba eye wòtu afɔ wo dzi.
And it was magnefied til to the strengthe of heuene, and it castide doun of the strengthe and of sterris, and defoulide tho.
11 Edo eɖokui ɖe dzi ɖe aʋakɔwo ƒe Fia la ŋu eye wòxɔ gbe sia gbe ƒe vɔsalã le esi hegbã eƒe nɔƒe kɔkɔe la.
And he was magnefied til to the prince of strengthe, and he took awei fro hym the contynuel sacrifice, and castide doun the place of his halewyng.
12 Le aglãdzedze ta la, wotsɔ ame kɔkɔewo ƒe aʋakɔ la kple gbe sia gbe ƒe vɔsa de asi nɛ. Nu sia nu si wòwɔ la dze edzi nɛ eye wòtsɔ nyateƒe ƒu gbe ɖe anyigba.
Forsothe strengthe was youun to hym ayens the contynuel sacrifice for synnes, and treuthe schal be cast doun in erthe; and he schal haue prosperite, and schal do.
13 Tete mese ame kɔkɔe aɖe wònɔ nu ƒom eye ame kɔkɔe bubu gblɔ nɛ be “Va se ɖe ɣe ka ɣi hafi ŋutega sia nava eme, ŋutega si ku ɖe gbe sia gbe ƒe vɔsa, aglãdzedze si hea gbegblẽ vɛ kple asiɖeɖe le kɔkɔeƒe la ŋu kple dɔla si dzi woanye avuzi le?”
And Y herde oon of hooli aungels spekynge; and oon hooli aungel seide to another, Y noot to whom spekinge, Hou long the visioun, and the contynuel sacrifice, and the synne of desolacioun, which is maad, and the seyntuarie, and the strengthe schal be defoulid?
14 Egblɔ nam be, “Fiẽ kple ŋdi akpe eve alafa etɔ̃ ava yi ekema woagbugbɔ kɔkɔƒe la ŋu akɔ.”
And he seide to hym, Til to the euentid and morewtid, two thousynde daies and thre hundrid; and the seyntuarie schal be clensid.
15 Esime nye, Daniel, menɔ ŋutega la kpɔm eye menɔ agbagba dzem be mase egɔme la, ame aɖe si ɖi ŋutsu la tsi tsitre ɖe nye ŋkume
Forsothe it was doon, whanne Y, Danyel, siy the visioun, and axide the vndurstondyng, lo! as the licnesse of a man stood in my siyt.
16 eye mese ame aɖe ƒe gbe tso Ulai tɔsisi la gbɔ wògblɔ be, “Gabriel, gblɔ ŋutega la ƒe gɔmeɖeɖe na ŋutsu sia.”
And Y herde the voys of a man bitwixe Vlai, and he criede, and seide, Gabriel, make thou Danyel to vndurstonde this visioun.
17 Esi wògogo afi si metsi tsitre ɖo la, vɔvɔ̃ ɖom eye metsyɔ mo anyi. Egblɔ nam be, “Ame vi, se egɔme be ŋutega la ku ɖe nuwuwu ƒe ɣeyiɣi ŋu.”
And he cam, and stood bisidis where Y stood; and whanne he was comun, Y dredde, and felle on my face. And he seide to me, Thou, sone of man, vndurstonde, for the visioun schal be fillid in the tyme of ende.
18 Esime wònɔ nu ƒom nam la, menɔ alɔ̃ me ʋĩi eye metsyɔ mo anyi. Eka asi ŋunye eye wòfɔm ɖe tsitre.
And whanne he spak to me, Y slood doun `plat to the erthe. And he touchide me, and settide me in my degree.
19 Egblɔ nam be, “Kpɔ ɖa, mele nu si ava dzɔ emegbe le dɔmedzoe ƒe ɣeyiɣi me la gblɔ ge na wò elabena ŋutega la ku ɖe nuwuwu ƒe ɣeyiɣi ɖoɖo la ŋu.
And he seide to me, Y schal schewe to thee what thingis schulen come in the laste of cursing, for the tyme hath his ende.
20 Agbo dzoevee si nèkpɔ la nye Media fia kple Persia fia.
The ram, whom thou siyest haue hornes, is the kyng of Medeis and of Perseis.
21 Gbɔ̃tsu la nye Grik fia eye dzo titri si nɔ eƒe ŋkuwo dome lae nye fia gbãtɔ.
Forsothe the buc of geet is the kyng of Grekis; and the greet horn that was bitwixe hise iyen, he is the firste kyng.
22 Dzo ene siwo to ɖe ɖeka si woŋe teƒe lae nye fiaɖuƒe ene siwo ado tso eƒe dukɔ me gake ŋusẽ ma tɔgbi ke manɔ wo ŋu o.
Forsothe that whanne that horn was brokun, foure hornes risiden for it, foure kyngis schulen rise of the folc of hym, but not in the strengthe of hym.
23 “Le woƒe dziɖuɖu ƒe nuwuwu lɔƒo esime aglãdzelawo ƒe aglãdzedze ado gã ɖe edzi la, fia vlo aɖe si nye ayetɔ gã aɖe la, ado.
And after the rewme of hem, whanne `wickidnessis han encreessid, a kyng schal rise vnschamefast in face, and vndurstondyng proposisiouns, ether resouns set forth; and his strengthe schal be maad stalworthe,
24 Azu ame sesẽ aɖe ŋutɔ gake menye to eya ŋutɔ ƒe ŋusẽ me o. Agblẽ nuwo nyamanyama eye wòakpɔ dzidzedze le nu sia nu si wòawɔ la me. Atsrɔ̃ ŋutsuwo kple ame kɔkɔewo.
but not in hise strengthis. And more than it mai be bileuyd he schal waste alle thingis, and he schal haue prosperite, and schal do. And he schal sle stronge men, and the puple of seyntis,
25 Ana beble nakpɔ dzidzedze eye wòabu eɖokui gã wu ale si wòle. Ne amewo bu be yewole dedie la, awu wo dometɔ geɖewo eye wòatsi tsitre ɖe fiawo dzi Fia la ŋu. Ke woatsrɔ̃e gake menye to amegbetɔ ƒe ŋusẽ me o.
bi his wille, and gile schal be dressid in his hond. And he schal magnefie his herte, and in abundaunce of alle thingis he schal sle ful many men. And he schal rise ayens the prince of princes, and withouten hond he schal be al to-brokun.
26 “Ŋutega si wona nèkpɔ tso fiẽ kple ŋdi ŋu la nye nyateƒe gake dzra ŋutega la ɖo ɖe wò dzi me elabena eku ɖe ɣeyiɣi didi aɖe si gbɔna la ŋu.”
And the visioun, which is seid in the morewtid and euentid, is trewe. Therfor seele thou the visioun, for it schal be after many daies.
27 Ɖeɖi te nye, Daniel ŋu eye menɔ dɔba dzi ŋkeke aɖewo. Emegbe mefɔ eye meyi fia la ƒe dɔwɔwɔ dzi. Ŋutega la wɔ nuku nam ŋutɔ; ekɔ wu amewo ƒe gɔmesese.
And Y, Danyel, was astonyed, and was sijk bi ful many daies; and whanne Y hadde rise, Y dide the werkis of the kyng; and Y was astonyed at the visioun, and `noon was that interpretide.
