< 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 the reign of King Cyrus of Persia, a message was revealed to Daniel (also called Belteshazzar). The message was certain and concerned a great conflict. He understood the message and gained understanding of the vision.
2 A wannan lokaci ni Daniyel na yi makoki har na sati uku.
When this happened, I, Daniel, had been in mourning 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 ate no fine food. No meat or wine passed my lips. I used no perfumed oils until those three weeks were over.
4 A rana ta ashirin da huɗu ga watan farko, a sa’ad da nake tsaye a bakin babban kogi, Tigris,
On the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was standing on the bank of the great River Tigris.
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.
I looked around and saw a man dressed in linen, and around his waist was a belt of pure 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.
His body shone like a jewel; his face was as bright as lightning; his eyes were like blazing torches; his arms and legs gleamed like polished bronze; and his voice sounded like the roar of a crowd.
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.
I, Daniel, was the only one to see this vision—the others with me did not see the vision, but they suddenly felt very frightened and ran away to hide themselves.
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.
I was left alone to see this wonderful vision. My strength drained away, and my face turned pale as death. I didn't have an ounce of strength left.
9 Sai na ji yana magana, da ina sauraronsa, sai na shiga barci mai nauyi, na kuwa fāɗi rubda ciki.
I heard him speaking, and when I heard his voice I lost consciousness and I lay face down on the ground.
10 Sai hannu ya taɓa ni ya sa makyarkyata a hannuna da ƙafafuna.
Then a hand touched me and lifted me onto my hands and knees.
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.
He said to me, “Daniel, God loves you very much. Pay attention to what I'm telling you. Stand up, because I have been sent to you.” When he told me this I stood up, trembling.
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.
“Don't be afraid, Daniel,” he said. “From the first day you concentrated on trying to understand this, and to humble yourself before God, your prayer was heard, and I have come to answer you.
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 prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed me for twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was being detained there by 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've come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the last days, for the vision is about a time in the future.”
15 Yayinda yake faɗin mini haka, sai na sunkuyar da kaina ƙasa shiru, ba magana.
As he told me this I remained there with my face to the ground and couldn't say a word.
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 the one who looked like a human being touched my lips and I was able to speak. I told the one standing in front of me, “My lord, since I saw the vision I've been in agony and I feel really weak.
17 Yaya ni bawanka zan iya magana da kai, ranka yă daɗe? Ƙarfina ya ƙare kuma ina numfashi da ƙyar.”
How can I, your servant, speak to you, my lord? I have no strength, and I can hardly breathe.”
18 Har yanzu wannan wanda yana kama da mutum ya taɓa ni ya kuma ba ni ƙarfi.
Once again the one who looked like a human being touched me and restored my 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.”
“Don't be afraid; God loves you very much. May you have peace! Be strong! Have courage!” As he spoke to me, I became stronger and I said, “My lord, speak to me, for you have strengthened me.”
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;
“Do you know why I've come to you?” he asked. “Shortly I will have to go back and fight the prince of Persia, and after that the prince of Greece will come.
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 before that I will tell you what is written down in the Book of Truth. No one helps me fight against these princes except Michael your prince.
