Danyèl 8
1 Mwen menm Danyèl, mwen fè yon lòt vizyon ankò apre premye vizyon sa a. Lè sa a, Bèlchaza t'ap mache sou twazan depi li te wa.
In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision appeared to me. After that which I had seen in the beginning, I, Daniel,
2 Nan vizyon an, mwen wè mwen te lavil Souz, kapital la ki nan pwovens Elam lan. Mwen te kanpe bò larivyè Oulayi.
saw in my vision, that I was in the capital city of Susa, which is in the region of Elam, yet I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai.
3 Mwen leve je m' gade, mwen wè yon belye mouton ki te kanpe bò larivyè a. Li te gen de kòn byen long ki pa t' pouse menm lè. Sa ki te pouse apre a te pi long pase premye a.
And I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, a single ram stood before the marsh, having two high horns, and one was higher than the other and growing higher still.
4 Mwen wè belye mouton an t'ap bay kout kòn nan direksyon solèy kouche, nan direksyon nò ak nan direksyon sid. Pat gen yon bèt ki te ka kenbe tèt avè l'. Ni pa t' gen pesonn pou wete yo anba pat li. Li t'ap fè sa l' pito. Chak lè, li t'ap vin pi awogan.
After this, I saw the ram brandishing his horns against the West, and against the North, and against the Meridian, and all the beasts could not withstand him, nor be freed from his hand, and he did according to his own will, and he became great.
5 Antan mwen t'ap chache konprann sa sa te vle di, mwen wè yon bouk kabrit k'ap kouri vin soti bò solèy kouche. Li t'ap kouri sitèlman vit, pye l' pa t' touche tè. Li te gen yon sèl gwo kòn nan mitan de je l' yo.
And I understood, and behold, a he-goat among she-goats came from the West above the face of the entire earth, and he did not touch the ground. Furthermore, the he-goat had a preeminent horn between his eyes.
6 Li mache sou belye mouton mwen te wè kanpe bò larivyè a ak de kòn lan. Li vare sou li ak tout fòs.
And he went all the way 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 Mwen wè l' atake belye mouton an. Li move sou li, li frape l', li kase de kòn li yo. Belye mouton an pa t' gen fòs pou kenbe tèt ak li. Bouk kabrit la jete l' atè, li pilonnen l' anba pye l'. Pat gen pesonn pou wete belye a anba pat bouk kabrit la.
And when he approached near to the ram, he was enraged against him, and he 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 trampled him, and no one was able to free the ram from his hand.
8 Bouk kabrit la konmanse grandi, li vin awogan anpil. Lè li fin chita pouvwa li byen chita, gwo kòn li an kase. Kat lòt gwo kòn pouse nan plas premye a, yo chak t'ap pwente nan direksyon kat gwo van yo.
But the he-goat among she-goats became exceedingly great, and when he had prospered, the great horn was shattered, and four horns were rising up beneath it by means of the four winds of heaven.
9 Yon ti kòn pouse sou yonn nan kòn sa yo. Li grandi, li mache fè lagè ak moun peyi nan sid la, moun peyi bò solèy leve a ak moun peyi ki pi bèl pase tout lòt yo.
But from one of them came forth one little horn, and it became great against the Meridian, and against the East, and against the strength.
10 Li grandi toujou, jouk li rive atake lame ki nan syèl la, zetwal yo menm. Li jete kèk ladan yo sou latè, li pilonnen yo anba pye l'.
And it was magnified even towards the strength of heaven, and it threw down those of the strength and of the stars, and it trampled them.
11 Li grandi, li menm rive atake chèf lame ki nan syèl la, li fè yo sispann ofri bèt pou touye pou li. Li fè kraze Tanp yo te mete apa pou li a.
And it was magnified, even to the leader of the strength, and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary.
12 Li fè sòlda lame li yo al moute kan yo kote yo te konn ofri bèt pou touye pou Bondye a. Ti kòn lan voye bon relijyon Bondye a jete atè, li te rive nan tou sa l'ap fè.
And the advantage was given to him against the continual sacrifice, because of the sins, and truth will be struck down to the ground, and he will act, and he will prosper.
13 Apre sa, mwen tande yon zanj pale ak yon lòt zanj, li di li: -Kilè sa yo bay nan vizyon an va rive? Kilè y'a sispann fè gwo peche sa a nan plas ofrann bèt ki pou fèt chak jou a? Kilè y'a sispann pilonnen lame ki nan syèl la ak tanp Bondye a anba pye yo?
And I heard one of the holy ones speaking, and one saint said to another, (I know not to whom he was speaking, ) “What is the extent of the vision, and the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation, which has happened, and of the sanctuary and the strength, which will be trampled?”
14 Lòt zanj lan reponn: -Se pou nou tann mil sansenkant (1150) jou ankò pase anvan yo rekonmanse ak ofrann bèt pou Bondye yo. Se lè sa a Bondye va rebati tanp li a ankò.
And he said to him, “From evening until morning, two thousand three hundred days, and so the sanctuary will be cleansed.”
15 Mwen t'ap chache konprann sa vizyon an te vle di, lè mwen rete konsa mwen wè yon fòm ki te sanble ak yon moun kanpe devan m'.
But it came to pass, when I, Daniel, saw the vision and sought understanding that, behold, there stood in my sight something like the appearance of a man.
16 Mwen tande yon vwa moun ki soti lòt bò larivyè Oulayi a ki t'ap di: -Gabriyèl! Esplike nonm sa a vizyon an non!
And I heard the voice of a man within Ulai, and he called out and said, “Gabriel, make this one understand the vision.”
17 Gabriyèl pwoche bò kote m' te ye a. Mwen te sitèlman pè mwen tonbe fas atè. Li di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Konprann byen: Vizyon an fè ou konnen ki jan sa pral fini sou latè.
And he came and stood next to where I was standing, and when he approached, I fell on my face, trembling, and he said to me, “Understand, son of man, for in the time of the end the vision will be fulfilled.”
18 Pandan li t'ap pale konsa, mwen pèdi konesans, mwen tonbe fas atè. Men, li ban m' men, li fè m' kanpe sou pye m' ankò.
And when he spoke to me, I fell forward onto the ground, and so he touched me and stood me upright.
19 Epi li di: -M'ap fè ou wè sa k'ap rive lè kòlè Bondye a va fin pase. Wi, lè pou tout bagay fini an pral rive.
And he said to me, “I will reveal to you what the future things are in the earlier tribulation, for the time has its end.
20 Belye mouton ou te wè ak de gwo kòn nan tèt li a, se de wa k'ap gouvènen de peyi, peyi Medi ak peyi Pès.
The ram, which you saw to have horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians.
21 Bouk kabrit la menm se wa peyi Lagrès la. Gwo kòn ou te wè nan mitan je l' yo se te premye wa a.
Furthermore, the he-goat among she-goats is the king of the Greeks, and the great horn, which was between his eyes, is the same one, the first king.
22 Kat kòn ou wè ki te pouse apre premye kòn lan te kase a, sa vle di gen kat moun ki pral separe peyi a. Yo chak pral gouvènen bò pa yo. Men, peyi a p'ap janm gen menm fòs la ankò.
And since, having been shattered, there grew four in its place, four kings will rise up from his people, but not in his strength.
23 Lè ti wa sa yo va rive nan bout yo, lè y'a fin fè kont peche yo, gen yon wa k'ap parèt, l'ap san respè pou Bondye, l'ap woule tout moun.
And after their reign, when iniquities will be increased, there will arise a king of shameless face and understanding negotiations.
24 L'ap grandi, l'ap vin fò. Men se pa fòs pa l' menm k'ap sou li. L'ap fè anpil dega. L'a reyisi nan tou sa l'ap fè. L'a kraze anpil gwo chèf ansanm ak anpil moun nan pèp Bondye a.
And his advantage will be strengthened, but not by his kind of force, and other than what he will be able to trust, everything will be eradicated, and he will prosper, and he will act. And he will execute the successful and the people of the saints,
25 L'ap rize anpil. L'a reyisi chak fwa l'ap twonpe moun. L'ap fè lwanj tèt li. San bay avètisman, l'ap detwi anpil moun ki t'ap viv ak kè poze. L'ap atake ata pi gwo chèf la, chèf tout chèf yo. Men li menm, rive yon lè l'ap disparèt, san se pa ankenn moun ki fè l' anyen.
according to his will, and treachery will be guided by his hand. And his heart will be inflated, and by the abundance of everything he will kill many, and he will rise up against the Lord of lords, and he will be knocked down without a hand.
26 Vizyon ou te fè pou maten ak aswè yo gen pou rive vre jan yo te esplike ou li a. Men, pa di anyen sou sa, paske l'ap pran yon bon ti tan anvan li rive vre.
And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true. Therefore, you must seal the vision, because, after many days, it will occur.”
27 Lè sa a, mwen santi mwen t'ap faya. Mwen pase kèk jou malad. Apre sa, mwen leve, m' al fè travay wa a te ban m' fè a. Men, vizyon an t'ap boulvèse lespri m' toujou, m' pa t' ka konprann li.
And I, Daniel, languished and was sick for some days, and when I had lifted myself up, I performed the king’s works, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none who could interpret it.
