< Daniyel 10 >
1 A shekara ta uku ta Sairus sarkin Farisa, sai aka ba wa Daniyel (wanda ake kira Belteshazar) wahayi. Saƙon kuwa gaskiya ce wadda take tattare da babban yaƙi. Fahimtar saƙon ya zo masa a cikin wahayi.
In the third year of Cyrus, king of Persia, a secret was unfolded to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, even a hard work: and he had knowledge of it, and the vision was clear to him.
2 A wannan lokaci ni Daniyel na yi makoki har na sati uku.
In those days I, Daniel, gave myself up to grief for three full weeks.
3 Ban ci abinci mai kyau ba; ba nama ko ruwa inabin da ya shiga bakina; kuma ba na amfani da man shafawa gaba ɗaya har sai da sati nan uku suka wuce.
I had no pleasing food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, and I put no oil on my body till three full weeks were ended.
4 A rana ta ashirin da huɗu ga watan farko, a sa’ad da nake tsaye a bakin babban kogi, Tigris,
And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was by the side of the great river;
5 na ɗaga kaina na duba sai ga wani mutum tsaye sanye da rigar lilin, ya yi ɗamara da zinariya zalla daga Ufaz kewaye da ƙugunsa.
And lifting up my eyes I saw the form of a man clothed in a linen robe, and round him there was a band of gold, of the best gold:
6 Jikinsa kamar lu’ulu’u yake, fuskarsa kuma kamar walƙiya, idanunsa kamar harshen wuta, hannuwansa da ƙafafunsa kamar gogaggiyar tagulla, muryarsa kuma kamar amon babban taron jama’a.
And his body was like the beryl, and his face had the look of a thunder-flame, and his eyes were like burning lights, and his arms and feet like the colour of polished brass, and the sound of his voice was like the sound of an army.
7 Ni, Daniyel, kaɗai ne na ga wahayin; mutanen da suke tare da ni ba su gani ba, amma wata irin babbar razana ta auko musu har suka gudu suka ɓuya.
And I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see it; but a great shaking came on them and they went in flight to take cover.
8 Sai aka bar ni ni kaɗai, ina juyayi wannan babban wahayi, ba ni da sauran ƙarfi, fuskata ta yamutse kuma ba ni da sauran ƙarfi.
So I was by myself, and I saw this great vision, and all my strength went from me; and the colour went from my face.
9 Sai na ji yana magana, da ina sauraronsa, sai na shiga barci mai nauyi, na kuwa fāɗi rubda ciki.
But the sound of his words came to my ears, and on hearing his voice I went into a deep sleep with my face to the earth.
10 Sai hannu ya taɓa ni ya sa makyarkyata a hannuna da ƙafafuna.
Then a hand gave me a touch, awaking me, and putting me on my knees and my hands.
11 Sai ya ce, “Daniyel, kai ne wanda ake ƙauna sosai, ka yi lura da kyau game da kalmomin da zan yi maka magana a kansu, ka tashi yanzu, gama an aiko ni a gare ka.” Sa’ad da ya faɗa mini haka, sai na tashi a tsaye ina rawan jiki.
And he said to me, O Daniel, you man dearly loved, take in the sense of the words I say to you and get up on to your feet: for to you I am now sent; and when he had said this to me I got on to my feet, shaking with fear.
12 Sai ya ci gaba da cewa, “Kada ka ji tsoro, Daniyel. Gama tun daga ran da ka fara sa zuciya ga neman ganewa, ka kuma ƙasƙantar da kanka a gaban Allahnka, an ji addu’arka, amsar addu’arka ce ta kawo ni.
Then he said to me, Have no fear, Daniel; for from the first day when you gave your heart to getting wisdom and making yourself poor in spirit before your God, your words have come to his ears: and I have come because of your words.
13 Amma mai mulkin masarautar Farisa ya tsare ni har kwana ashirin da ɗaya. Sai da Mika’ilu, ɗaya daga cikin manya shugabanni, ya zo ya taimake ni, saboda an tsare ni a can tare da sarkin Farisa.
But the angel of the kingdom of Persia put himself against me for twenty-one days; but Michael, one of the chief angels, came to my help; and when I came he was still there with the angel of the kings of Persia.
14 Yanzu na zo domin in bayyana maka abin da zai faru da mutanenka nan gaba, gama wahayin ya shafi lokacin da bai riga ya zo ba ne.”
Now I have come to give you knowledge of the fate of your people in the later days; for there is still a vision for the days.
15 Yayinda yake faɗin mini haka, sai na sunkuyar da kaina ƙasa shiru, ba magana.
And after he had said these words to me, I kept my face turned to the earth and was unable to say anything.
16 Sai wani wanda ya yi kama da mutum ya taɓa leɓunana, na kuma buɗe bakina sai na fara magana. Na ce wa wannan da yake tsaye a gabana, “Na cika da azaba saboda wannan wahayi, ranka yă daɗe, ina kuma neman taimako.
Then one whose form was like the sons of men put his finger on my lips; and opening my mouth, I said to him who was before me, O my lord, because of the vision my pains have come on me, and I have no more strength.
17 Yaya ni bawanka zan iya magana da kai, ranka yă daɗe? Ƙarfina ya ƙare kuma ina numfashi da ƙyar.”
For how may this servant of my lord have talk with my lord? for, as for me, straight away my strength went from me and there was no breath in my body.
18 Har yanzu wannan wanda yana kama da mutum ya taɓa ni ya kuma ba ni ƙarfi.
Then again one having the form of a man put his hand on me and gave me strength.
19 Ya kuma ce, “Kada ka ji tsoro, ya kai mutumin da ake fahariya, salama a gare ka! Ka ƙarfafa yanzu; ka yi ƙarfin hali.” Sa’ad da ya yi magana da ni, sai na samu ƙarfi na ce, “Ka yi magana ranka yă daɗe, tun da yake ka sa na sami ƙarfi.”
And he said to me, O man greatly loved, have no fear: peace be with you, be strong and let your heart be lifted up. And at his words I became strong, and said, Let my lord say on, for you have given me strength.
20 Sai ya ce mini, “Ka san abin da ya kawo ni gare ka? Ba da jimawa ba zan koma in yi yaƙi da mai mulkin Farisa, kuma idan na tafi, mai mulkin Hellenawa zai taso;
Then he said, It is clear to you why I have come to you. And now I will give you an account of what is recorded in the true writings:
21 amma da farko zan faɗa maka abin da aka rubuta a cikin Littafin Gaskiya (Babu wanda ya taimake ni yaƙi da waɗannan sai dai Mika’ilu, sarkinku.
But I am going back to make war with the angel of Persia, and when I am gone, the angel of Greece will come. And there is no one on my side against these, but Michael, your angel.
