Danieli 8
1 Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa gatatũ wa wathani wa Mũthamaki Belishazaru-rĩ, niĩ Danieli nĩndonire kĩoneki kĩngĩ, thuutha wa kĩrĩa ndoonete mbere.
In the third year of the reign of king Baltasar, a vision appeared to me. I Daniel, after what I had seen in the beginning,
2 Kĩoneki-inĩ kĩu gĩakwa ndeyonire ndĩ itũũra-inĩ igitĩre rĩa Shushani bũrũri-inĩ wa Elamu; kĩoneki-inĩ kĩu ndeyonire ndĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Rũũĩ rwa Ulai.
Saw in my vision when I was in the castle of Susa, which is in the province of Elam: and I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai.
3 Na rĩrĩ, ngĩcũthĩrĩria, na hau mbere yakwa ngĩona ndũrũme ĩrũngiĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia rũũĩ, na yarĩ na hĩa igĩrĩ, nacio ciarĩ ndaaya. Rũhĩa rũmwe rwarĩ rũraihu gũkĩra rũrĩa rũngĩ, o na gũtuĩka nĩruo rwamerete thuutha.
And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold a ram stood before the water, having two high horns, and one higher than the other, and growing up. Afterward
4 Ngĩcooka ngĩona ndũrũme ĩyo yaguthũka ĩrorete mwena wa ithũĩro na wa gathigathini na wa gũthini, no gũtirĩ nyamũ o na ĩmwe ĩngĩahotire kũmĩĩtiiria, na gũtirĩ ĩngĩahotire kwĩhonokia kuuma harĩ hinya wayo. Yekaga o ta ũrĩa ĩngĩendire gwĩka, nayo ĩkĩgĩa na hinya mũno.
I saw the ram pushing with his horns against the west, and against the north, and against the south: and no beasts could withstand him, nor be delivered out of his hand: and he did according to his own will, and became great.
5 Na rĩrĩa ndacũũranagia ũhoro ũcio, o rĩmwe hagĩũka thenge yumĩte mwena wa ithũĩro, ĩtuĩkanĩirie thĩ yothe ĩtekũhutia thĩ, nayo thenge ĩyo yarĩ na rũhĩa rũmwe rũnene thiithi-inĩ.
And I understood: and behold a he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and he touched not the ground, and the he goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
6 Ĩgĩũka yerekeire harĩ ndũrũme ĩrĩa yarĩ na hĩa igĩrĩ, ĩyo ndoonete ĩrũngiĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia rũũĩ, ĩkĩmĩguthũkĩra ĩrĩ na mangʼũrĩ manene.
And he went up to the ram that had the horns, which I had seen standing before the gate, and he ran towards him in the force of his strength.
7 Ngĩona yatharĩkĩra ndũrũme ĩyo ĩrakarĩte mũno, ĩkĩringa ndũrũme ĩyo na ĩkiunanga hĩa ciayo cierĩ. Nayo ndũrũme ĩyo ndĩarĩ na hinya wa kũmĩĩtiiria, nĩ ũndũ ũcio thenge ĩyo ĩkĩmĩgũtha, ĩkĩmĩgũithia thĩ na ĩkĩmĩrangĩrĩria, na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩahotire kũhonokia ndũrũme ĩyo kuuma harĩ hinya wa thenge ĩyo.
And when he was come near the ram, he was enraged against him, and struck the ram: and broke his two horns, and the ram could not withstand him: and when he had cast him down on the ground, he stamped upon him, and none could deliver the ram out of his hand.
8 Thenge ĩyo ĩkĩgĩa na hinya mũno, no rĩrĩa hinya wayo waingĩhire mũno-rĩ, rũhĩa rũu rwayo rũnene rũkiunĩka, na ithenya rĩaruo hakĩmera hĩa ingĩ inya nene, irorete mĩena ĩna ĩrĩa huho iria cia igũrũ ihurutanaga.
And the he goat became exceeding great: and when he was grown, the great horn was broken, and there came up four horns under it towards the four winds of heaven.
9 Na rĩrĩ, rũmwe rwacio rũkĩmerererwo nĩ rũhĩa rũngĩ, rũrĩa rwambĩrĩirie rũrĩ rũnini, no rũgĩkũra rũkĩgĩa na hinya rwerekeire mwena wa gũthini, na wa irathĩro, na wa Bũrũri ũrĩa Mũthaka.
And out of one of them came forth a little horn: and it became great against the south, and against the east, and against the strength.
10 Rũkĩraiha nginya rũgĩkinyĩra mbũtũ cia igũrũ, na rũkĩrutũrũra mbũtũ imwe rũgĩcigũithia thĩ na rũgĩcirangĩrĩria.
And it was magnified even unto the strength of heaven: and it threw down of the strength, and of the stars, and trod upon them.
11 Rũgĩĩtũũgĩria rũnenehe rũiganane na Mũtongoria wa mbũtũ icio cia igũrũ; rũkĩeheria magongona marĩa maacinagwo o mũthenya kuuma harĩ we, nakĩo gĩikaro gĩake kĩrĩa kĩamũre gĩkĩngʼaũranio.
And it was magnified even to the prince of the strength: and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary.
12 Nĩ ũndũ wa ũremi, mbũtũ cia andũ arĩa atheru na magongona ma o mũthenya makĩneanwo harĩ ruo. Rũkĩgaacĩra maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa rwekire, naguo ũhoro wa ma ũgĩteanĩrio.
And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper.
13 Ningĩ ngĩcooka ngĩigua ũmwe wa andũ arĩa atheru akĩaria, nake ũngĩ mũtheru akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Kĩoneki gĩkĩ-rĩ, gĩgũikara ihinda rĩigana atĩa gĩgĩkahingio: kĩoneki kĩu gĩkoniĩ magongona ma o mũthenya, na ũremi ũcio wa kũrehe ihooru, na kũneanwo gwa gĩikaro kĩrĩa gĩtheru, na kũrangĩrĩrio thĩ kwa mbũtũ?”
And I heard one of the saints speaking, and one saint said to another, I know not to whom that was speaking: How long shall be the vision, concerning the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation that is made: and the sanctuary, and the strength be trodden under foot?
14 Nake akĩnjookeria atĩrĩ: “Ũhoro ũcio ũgũikara matukũ 2,300; na thuutha ũcio gĩikaro kĩu gĩtheru nĩgĩkaamũrwo rĩngĩ.”
And he said to him: Unto evening and morning two thousand three hundred days: and the sanctuary shall be cleansed.
15 Rĩrĩa niĩ Danieli nderoragĩra kĩoneki kĩu o ngĩgeragia kũmenya gĩtũmi gĩakĩo-rĩ, hau mbere yakwa hakĩrũgama ũmwe wahaanaga ta mũndũ.
And it came to pass when I Daniel saw the vision, and sought the meaning, that behold there stood before me as it were the appearance of a man.
16 Na ngĩigua mũgambo wa mũndũ ũgĩĩtana kuuma Rũũĩ rwa Ulai, ũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee Gaburieli, ta taũrĩra mũndũ ũyũ gĩtũmi gĩa kĩoneki kĩu onete.”
And I heard the voice of a man between Ulai: and he called, and said: Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
17 Na rĩrĩa aakuhĩrĩirie harĩa ndarũgamĩte, ngĩtuĩka nda, ngĩgwa ngĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ. Nake akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ: “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, nĩ wega ũmenye atĩ kĩoneki kĩu gĩkoniĩ mahinda ma ithirĩro.”
And he came and stood near where I stood: and when he was come, I fell on my face trembling, and he said to me: Understand, O son of man, for in the time of the end the vision shall be fulfilled.
18 Hĩndĩ ĩyo aanjaragĩria-rĩ, ndaarĩ toro mũnene, ngakoma ndurumithĩtie ũthiũ thĩ. Nake akĩĩhutia na akĩnjũkĩria, akĩndũgamia na igũrũ.
And when he spoke to me I fell flat on the ground: and he touched me, and set me upright,
19 Akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũkwĩra ũrĩa gũkaahaana thuutha-inĩ hĩndĩ ya mangʼũrĩ, tondũ rĩrĩ, kĩoneki gĩkĩ gĩkoniĩ mahinda marĩa maathĩrĩirio ma ithirĩro.
And he said to me: I will shew thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end.
20 Ndũrũme ĩyo wonire ĩrĩ na hĩa igĩrĩ, hĩa icio irũgamĩrĩire athamaki a Media na Perisia.
The ram, which thou sawest with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians.
21 Nayo thenge ĩyo ĩrĩ na maguoya maingĩ mwĩrĩ nĩo mũthamaki wa Ũyunani, na rũhĩa rũu rũnene rũrĩ thiithi nĩruo mũthamaki wakuo wa mbere.
And the he goat, is the king of the Greeks, and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king.
22 Hĩa icio inya ciamerire ithenya rĩa rũhĩa rũu ruoinĩkire irũgamĩrĩire mothamaki mana marĩa makoima thĩinĩ wa bũrũri wake, no matigaakorwo marĩ na ũhoti ta wake.
But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength.
23 “Ningĩ mahinda ma kũrigĩrĩria ma ũthamaki wao, rĩrĩa andũ aremi magaakorwo maaganĩte biũ, nĩgũkarahũka mũthamaki ũngĩ ũtarĩ tha, mũndũ mwara na mũũgĩ na maũndũ ma ungumania.
And after their reign, when iniquities shall be grown up, there shall arise a king of a shameless face, and understanding dark sentences.
24 Nĩakagĩa na hinya mũno, no ti ũndũ wa ũhoti wake mwene. Nĩakarehithia mwanangĩko wa kũmakania, ningĩ nĩakagaacĩra ũndũ-inĩ wothe ageeka. Nĩakaniina andũ arĩa marĩ hinya na andũ arĩa a Ngai.
And his power shall be strengthened, but not by his own force: and he shall lay all things waste, and shall prosper, and do more than can be believed. And he shall destroy the mighty, and the people of the saints,
25 Nĩagatũma maũndũ ma maheeni magaacĩre, na nĩakeyona arĩ mũnene gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ. Rĩrĩa makaigua ta kũrĩ thayũ nĩguo nake akooragithia andũ aingĩ, o na okĩrĩre Mũnene wa anene. No rĩrĩ, nĩakanangwo, no ti hinya wa mũndũ ũkaamwananga.
According to his will, and craft shall be successful in his hand: and his heart shall be puffed up, and in the abundance of all things he shall kill many: and he shall rise up against the prince of princes, and shall be broken without hand.
26 “Kĩoneki kĩu wonirio kĩa mahwaĩ-inĩ na ma rũciinĩ-rĩ, nĩ kĩa ma, no rĩrĩ, hingĩrĩria ũhoro wa kĩoneki kĩu tondũ gĩkoniĩ mahinda marĩ kũraya gĩgĩkahingio.”
And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true: thou therefore seal up the vision, because it shall come to pass after many days.
27 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, niĩ Danieli ngĩthirwo nĩ hinya, na ngĩikara ndĩ mũrũaru mĩthenya mĩingĩ. Ngĩcooka ngĩũkĩra, na ngĩthiĩ na mbere kũruta wĩra wa mũthamaki. Nĩndainainirio nĩ kĩoneki kĩu, tondũ ndiahotire gũtaũkĩrwo nĩ ũhoro wakĩo.
And I Daniel languished, and was sick for some days: and when I was risen up, I did the king’s business, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none that could interpret it.
