Danyèl 12
1 “Alò, nan lè sa a, Micaël, gran prens ki te kanpe pou fis a pèp ou yo, va leve. Epi va gen yon tan gwo twoub jan sa pa t janm te konn fèt soti lè te gen yon nasyon jis rive nan lè sa a. Epi nan lè sa a, pèp ou a va vin delivre, tout moun ke gen non ekri nan liv la.
At that time Michael the great prince, the protector of your people, will stand up and there will be a time of trouble like never before, since nations first existed. But at that time your people will be saved, all whose names are written in the book.
2 Anpil nan sila ki dòmi nan pousyè latè yo va leve, yon pati pou lavi etènèl yo, men lòt yo pou gwo wont ak mepriz ki p ap janm fini.
Millions sleeping in the ground in death will awake, some to eternal life, and some to eternal shame and disgrace.
3 Sila ki gen bon konprann yo va briye klè tankou ekla a tout syèl la. Epi sila ki mennen anpil moun vè ladwati yo, va brile tankou zetwal jis pou tout tan, e pou tout tan.
Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky; those who have shown many the right way to live will shine as bright as the stars forever and ever.
4 Men ou menm, Daniel, kache pawòl sila yo, e sele liv la nèt, jis rive nan fen tan yo. Anpil moun va kouri fè ale vini, e konesans va ogmante.”
But as for you, Daniel, keep this message secret, and seal the book closed until the time of the end. Many will search this way and that way, and knowledge will grow greater and greater.”
5 Epi mwen menm, Daniel te gade, e vwala, de lòt moun te kanpe, youn sou bò rivyè sa a, e lòt la sou lòtbò a.
Then I, Daniel, noticed two others, each standing on opposite sides of the river.
6 Konsa youn te di a mesye abiye an len an, ki te sou dlo rivyè a: “Konbyen tan pou rive nan fen a bagay mèvèy sila yo?”
One of then asked the man dressed in linen who was above the river's waters, “How long before these outrageous things come to an end?”
7 Mwen te tande nonm abiye an len an, ki te sou dlo rivyè a, lè l te leve men dwat li ak men goch li vè syèl la. Li te jire pa li menm ki viv pou tout tan an, ki li va pou yon tan, tan yo, ak yon mwatye tan. Lè yo fin kraze pouvwa a pèp sen an, tout evenman sila yo va fini.
The man dressed in linen, who was above the river's waters, lifted both hands to heaven made a solemn promise by the One who lives eternally. I heard him say, “It will last for a time, times, and half a time. When the scattering of the power of the holy people has come to an end, then all these things will also come to an end.”
8 Konsa, mwen te tande, men mwen pa t ka konprann. Akoz sa, mwen te di: “Senyè mwen, kisa ki va fen a evenman sila yo?”
I heard the answer, but I didn't understand it. So I asked, “My lord, what's the final result of all this?”
9 Li te di: “Ale, Daniel, paske pawòl sila yo kache e sele nèt, jiska moman lafen an.
“Daniel, you can go on your way now,” he replied, “for this message is secret and kept sealed until the time of the end.
10 Anpil moun va pirifye tèt yo, e fè tèt yo blan pou vin rafine, men mechan yo va aji ak mechanste. Konsa okenn nan mechan yo p ap konprann, men sila ki gen sajès yo va konprann.
Many will be purified and cleansed and refined, but the wicked will go on being wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but the wise will understand.
11 “Soti nan lè ke sakrifis nòmal la te vin aboli a abominasyon ak dezolasyon vin monte a, va genyen mil-de-san-katreven-dis jou.
From the time the continual ministry is stopped in order to set up the idolatry that causes devastation will be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Beni se sila ki va tann, e rive jis nan Mil-twa-san-trann-senk jou yo.
Blessed are those who patiently wait for and reach the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
13 “Men ou menm, kontinye fè wout ou, jis rive nan fen an. Paske ou va antre nan repo, e ou va kanpe ankò pou pòsyon eritaj pa ou a nan fen jou yo.”
But as for you, go your way until your life ends, and then rest. You will rise to receive your reward at the end of time.”
