Daniel 9
1 Le Ahasuerus (Mediatɔ ƒe vi), Darius, ame si wotsɔ ɖo fiae ɖe Babilonia fiaɖuƒea nu ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe gbãtɔ me la,
In the firste yeer of Darius, the sone of Assuerus, of the seed of Medeis, that was emperour on the rewme of Caldeis,
2 nye Daniel, mese egɔme tso Ŋɔŋlɔ Kɔkɔe la me, tso nya si Yehowa tsɔ na Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia me, be Yerusalem ƒe aƒedozuzu anɔ anyi ƒe blaadre.
in the firste yeer of his rewme, Y, Danyel, vndurstood in bookis the noumbre of yeeris, of which noumbre the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye, the profete, that seuenti yeer of desolacioun of Jerusalem schulde be fillid.
3 Ale metrɔ ɖe Yehowa, nye Mawu ŋu eye meƒo koko nɛ to gbedodoɖa, kukuɖeɖe, nutsitsidɔ, akpanyatata kple dzowɔsisi me.
And Y settide my face to my Lord God, to preie and to biseche in fastyngis, in sak, and aische.
4 Medo gbe ɖa na Yehowa, nye Mawu eye meʋu nye nu vɔ̃ me be, “O Yehowa, Mawu gã si ŋu ŋɔdzi le, ame si léa lɔlɔ̃ ƒe nubabla me ɖe asi na ame siwo katã lɔ̃nɛ eye wowɔa eƒe sewo dzi,
And Y preiede my Lord God, and Y knoulechide, and seide, Y biseche, thou Lord God, greet and ferdful, kepynge couenaunt and mercy to hem that louen thee, and kepen thi comaundementis.
5 míewɔ nu vɔ̃ eye míeda vo. Míesẽ ŋuta eye míedze aglã. Míeɖe asi le wò ɖoɖowo kple sewo ŋuti.
We han synned, we han do wickidnesse, we diden unfeithfuli, and yeden awei, and bowiden awei fro thi comaundementis and domes.
6 Míeɖo to wò dɔla nyagblɔɖilawo, ame siwo ƒo nu le wò ŋkɔ me na míaƒe fiawo, dumegãwo kple mía fofowo kple anyigbadzitɔwo katã o.
We obeieden not to thi seruauntis, profetis, that spaken in thi name to oure kyngis, to oure princes, and to oure fadris, and to al the puple of the lond.
7 “Aƒetɔ, ènye dzɔdzɔetɔ, ke egbe la, ŋukpe lé mí, Yudatɔwo kple Yerusalemtɔwo kple Israelviwo katã, kpuiƒetɔwo kple didiƒetɔwo siaa, le dukɔ siwo me nèka mí hlẽ ɖo le míaƒe nuteƒemawɔmawɔ na wò ta.
Lord, riytfulnesse is to thee, forsothe schenschipe of face is to vs, as is to dai to a man of Juda, and to the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and to al Israel, to these men that ben niy, and to these men that ben afer in alle londis, to which thou castidist hem out for the wickidnessis of hem, in whiche, Lord, thei synneden ayens thee.
8 O Yehowa, ŋukpe lé mí, míaƒe fiawo, míaƒe dumegãwo kple mía fofowo le ale si míeda vo ɖe ŋuwò la ta.
Schame of face is to vs, to oure kyngis, to oure princes, and to oure fadris, that synneden;
9 Aƒetɔ, mía Mawu la kpɔa nublanui eye wòtsɔa nu vɔ̃ kena togbɔ be míedze aglã ɖe eŋu hã.
but merci and benygnytee is to thee, oure Lord God. For we yeden awei fro thee,
10 Míeɖo to Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la o, eye míelé se siwo wòde na mí to eƒe dɔla, nyagblɔɖilawo dzi la me ɖe asi o.
and herden not the vois of oure Lord God, that we schulden go in the lawe of hym, whiche he settide to vs bi hise seruauntis, profetis.
11 Israel blibo la da le wò sewo dzi, wotrɔ le yowòme, eye wogbe toɖoɖo wò eya ta wotrɔ fiƒode kple atam siwo woŋlɔ ɖe Mawu ƒe dɔla Mose ƒe sewo me la, kɔ ɖe mía dzi elabena míewɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe ŋutiwò.
And al Israel braken thi lawe, and bowiden awei, that thei herden not thi vois; and cursyng, and wlatyng, which is writun in the book of Moises, the seruaunt of God, droppide on vs, for we synneden to hym.
12 Èwɔ nya siwo wogblɔ ɖe míawo kple míaƒe dziɖulawo ŋu la dzi, to dzɔgbevɔ̃e gã hehe va mía dzi me. Le dziƒo blibo la te la, womewɔ naneke kpɔ abe nu si wowɔ Yerusalem la ene o.
And he ordeynede hise wordis, whiche he spak on vs, and on oure princes, that demyden vs, that thei schulden brynge in on vs greet yuel, what maner yuel was neuer vndur al heuene, bi that that is doon in Jerusalem,
13 Abe ale si woŋlɔ ɖe Mose ƒe sewo me ene la, dzɔgbevɔ̃e sia katã dzɔ ɖe mía dzi, míedi Yehowa, mía Mawu la ƒe amenuveve to asiɖeɖe le míaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ŋu kple ŋkuléle ɖe wò nyateƒe la ŋu me o.
as it is writun in the lawe of Moises. Al this yuel cam on vs, and, oure Lord God, we preieden not thi face, that we schulden turne ayen fro oure wickidnessis, and schulden thenke thi treuthe.
14 Yehowa mehe ɖe megbe le dzɔgbevɔ̃e la hehe va mía dzi me o elabena Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la dzɔdzɔetɔe wònye le nu sia nu si wòwɔna la me gake míeɖo toe o.
And the Lord wakide on malice, and brouyt it on vs; oure Lord God is iust in alle his werkis whiche he made, for we herden not his vois.
15 “Azɔ la, O Aƒetɔ, mía Mawu, wò ame si kplɔ wò amewo do goe tso Egipte kple asi sesẽ eye nède ŋkɔ ɖokuiwò ŋu, ŋkɔ si le ŋuwò va ɖo egbe sia, míewɔ nu vɔ̃ eye míeda vo.
And now, Lord God, that leddist thi puple out of the lond of Egipt in strong hond, and madist to thee a name bi this dai, we han synnede,
16 O Aƒetɔ, le wò nu dzɔdzɔewo katã wɔwɔ me la, na wò dziku kple dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ naɖe ɖa le Yerusalem, wò du kple wò to kɔkɔe la ŋu. Míaƒe nu vɔ̃wo kple mía fofowo ƒe dzidadawo na Yerusalem kple wò amewo zu fewuɖunu na ame siwo katã ƒo xlã mí.
we han do wickidnesse, Lord, ayens thi riytfulnesse. Y biseche, thi wraththe and thi stronge veniaunce be turned awey fro thi citee Jerusalem, and fro thi hooli hil; for whi for oure synnes, and for the wickidnessis of oure fadris, Jerusalem and thi puple ben in schenschipe, to alle men bi oure cumpas.
17 “Azɔ, mía Mawu, se wò dɔla ƒe gbedodoɖa kple kokoƒoƒo. Le wò ŋutɔ ta, O Aƒetɔ, kpɔ wò Kɔkɔeƒe si zu aƒedo la ɖa kple amenuveve.
But now, oure God, here thou the preyer of thi seruaunt, and the bisechyngis of him, and schewe thi face on thi seyntuarie, which is forsakun.
18 Ɖo to, O Mawu eye nàse nu; ʋu wò ŋkuwo eye nàkpɔ wò du si ŋu wò Ŋkɔ le la ƒe aƒedozuzu ɖa. Míele nu biam wò le míaƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye ta o, ke boŋ le wò nublanuikpɔkpɔ gã la ta.
My God, for thi silf boowe doun thin eere, and here; opene thin iyen, and se oure desolacioun, and the citee, on which thi name is clepid to help. For not in oure iustifiyngis we setten forth mekeli preiers bifor thi face, but in thi many merciful doyngis.
19 O Aƒetɔ, ƒu to anyi! O Aƒetɔ, tsɔe ke dzro! O Aƒetɔ, se nu eye nàwɔ nu! Le wò ŋutɔ ta, O nye Mawu, mègahe ɖe megbe o elabena wò Ŋkɔ le wò du kple wò amewo ŋu.”
Lord, here thou; Lord, be thou plesid, perseyue thou, and do; my Lord God, tarie thou not, for thi silf, for thi name is clepid to help on the citee, and on thi puple.
20 Esime menɔ nu ƒom, henɔ gbe dom ɖa nɔ nye kple nye dukɔ, Israel, ƒe nu vɔ̃ me ʋum eye menɔ koko ƒom na Yehowa, nye Mawu, ɖe eƒe to kɔkɔe la ta
And whanne Y spak yit, and preiede, and knoulechide my synnes, and the synnes of my puple Israel, that Y schulde sette forth mekeli my preieris in the siyt of my God, for the hooli hil of my God,
21 eye meganɔ gbe dom ɖa ko la, Gabriel, ame si mekpɔ le nye ŋutega si do ŋgɔ me la va do ɖe dzinye kpoyi le fiẽvɔsaɣi.
the while Y spak yit in my preyer, lo! the man Gabriel, whom Y hadde seyn in visioun at the bigynnyng, flei soone, and touchide me in the tyme of euentid sacrifice;
22 Efia num, gblɔ nam be, “Daniel, meva azɔ be mana sidzedze kple gɔmesese wò.
and he tauyt me, and he spak to me, and seide, Danyel, now Y yede out, that Y schulde teche thee, and thou schuldist vndurstonde.
23 Esime nèdze gbedodoɖa gɔme teti ko la, wona ŋuɖoɖo aɖe si meva be magblɔ na wò elabena wobua wò ŋutɔ eya ta bu gbedeasi la ŋu eye nàse ŋutega la gɔme:
Fro the bigynnyng of thi preieris a word yede out. Forsothe Y cam to schewe to thee, for thou art a man of desiris; therfor perseyue thou the word, and vndurstonde thou the visioun.
24 “Woɖo Kɔsiɖa blaadre na wò amewo kple wò du kɔkɔe la be miawu sedzidada nu, miadzudzɔ nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ, woalé avu ɖe vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi ta, woatsɔ dzɔdzɔenyenye mavɔtɔ vɛ, woatre ŋutegawo kple nyagblɔɖiwo nu eye woasi ami na kɔkɔeƒe ƒe kɔkɔeƒe la.
Seuenti woukis of yeeris ben abreggid on thi puple, and on thin hooli citee, that trespassyng be endid, and synne take an ende, and that wickidnesse be doon awei, and euerlastynge riytfulnesse be brouyt, and that the visioun, and prophesie be fillid, and the hooli of seyntis be anoyntid.
25 “Nya nu sia eye nàse egɔme. Tso sedede sia be woagbugbɔ Yerusalem atu dzi va se ɖe esime Amesiamina la, dziɖula la nava la, anye kɔsiɖa adre eye woagbugbɔe atu kple mɔtatawo kple tsisitoƒewo gake woawɔe le xaxaɣi.
Therfor wite thou, and perseyue; fro the goyng out of the word, that Jerusalem be bildid eft, til to Crist, the duyk, schulen be seuene woukis of yeeris and two and sixti woukis of yeeris; and eft the street schal be bildid, and wallis, in the angwisch of tymes.
26 Le kɔsiɖa blaade-vɔ-eveawo megbe la, woaɖe Amesiamina la ɖa eye naneke manɔ esi o. Dziɖula si ava la ƒe amewo agbã du la kple kɔkɔeƒe la. Nuwuwu la ava abe tsiɖɔɖɔ ene. Aʋawɔwɔ ayi edzi va se ɖe nuwuwu la eye woaɖe mɔ le aƒedozuzu ŋuti.
And after two and sixti woukis `of yeeris Crist schal be slayn. And it schal not be his puple, that schal denye hym. And the puple with the duyk to comynge schal distrie the citee, and the seyntuarie; and the ende therof schal be distriyng, and after the ende of batel schal be ordeynede desolacioun.
27 Aɖo kpe nu si wòbla kple ame geɖewo la dzi kɔsiɖa ɖeka. Le kɔsiɖa ɖeka la titina la, atɔ te vɔsawo kple nunanawo. Le gbedoxɔ la ƒe dzogoe ɖeka dzi la, ali ŋunyɔnu si hea gbegblẽ vɛ la ɖi va se ɖe esime woatrɔ nuwuwu si woɖo ɖi la akɔ ɖe edzi.”
Forsothe o wouk `of yeeris schal conferme the couenaunt to many men, and the offryng and sacrifice schal faile in the myddis of the wouke of yeeris; and abhomynacioun of desolacioun schal be in the temple, and the desolacioun schal contynue til to the parformyng and ende.
