Daniyel 11
1 A shekara ta fari ta Dariyus mutumin Mede, na ɗauki matsayina domin in goyi baya in kuma kāre shi.)
“And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, stood up to strengthen and protect him.
2 “Yanzu dai, zan faɗa maka gaskiya. Sarakuna uku za su taso a Farisa, sa’an nan kuma na huɗu, wanda zai fi dukansu dukiya. Sa’ad da zai sami iko saboda dukiyarsa, zai zuga dukan kowane mutum yă yi gāba da masarautar Girka.
Now then, I will tell you the truth: Three more kings will arise in Persia, and then a fourth, who will be far richer than all the others. By the power of his wealth, he will stir up everyone against the kingdom of Greece.
3 Sa’an nan wani babban sarki zai bayyana, wanda zai yi mulki da babban iko yă kuma yi abin da ya ga dama.
Then a mighty king will arise, who will rule with great authority and do as he pleases.
4 Bayan da ya bayyana, daularsa za tă wargaje za a rarraba ta zuwa kusurwoyi huɗu na duniya, a ba waɗansu waɗanda ba zuriyarsa ba, ba kuwa za su yi mulki da iko kamar yadda ya yi ba, gama za a tumɓuki daularsa a kuma ba wa waɗansu.
But as soon as he is established, his kingdom will be broken up and parceled out toward the four winds of heaven. It will not go to his descendants, nor will it have the authority with which he ruled, because his kingdom will be uprooted and given to others.
5 “Sai sarki Kudu zai yi ƙarfi ƙwarai, amma ɗaya daga cikin komandodinsa zai yi ƙarfi fiye da shi, zai kuma yi mulki masarautarsa da iko mai girma.
The king of the South will grow strong, but one of his commanders will grow even stronger and will rule his own kingdom with great authority.
6 Bayan’yan shekaru, za su haɗa kai. Diyar sarkin Kudu za tă je wurin sarkin Arewa ta sada zumunci, amma ba za tă riƙe iko ba, shi kuwa da ikonsa ba za su daɗe ba. A waɗannan kwanaki za a bashe ta, da ita da masu rakiyarta da kuma mahaifinta da kuma wanda ya goyi bayanta.
After some years they will form an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the South will go to the king of the North to seal the agreement. But his daughter will not retain her position of power, nor will his strength endure. At that time she will be given up, along with her royal escort and her father and the one who supported her.
7 “Wani daga cikin zuriyarta zai taso yă ɗauki matsayinta. Zai kai wa sojojin sarkin Arewa hari yă kuma shiga kagararsa; zai yi yaƙi da su yă kuma yi nasara.
But one from her family line will rise up in his place, come against the army of the king of the North, and enter his fortress, fighting and prevailing.
8 Zai ƙwace allolinsu, siffofinsu na ƙarfe da kuma kaya masu daraja na azurfa da na zinariya a kuma kai su Masar. Zai yi’yan shekaru bai kai wa sarkin Arewa yaƙi ba.
He will take even their gods captive to Egypt, with their metal images and their precious vessels of silver and gold. For some years he will stay away from the king of the North,
9 Sa’an nan sarkin Arewa zai kai wa sarkin Kudu hari, amma zai janye, yă koma ƙasarsa.
who will invade the realm of the king of the South and then return to his own land.
10 ’Ya’yansa maza za su yi shirin yaƙi za su kuma tattara babbar rundunar sojoji, waɗanda za su yi ta mamayewa kamar rigyawar da ba iya tarewa, kuma za su kai yaƙin har kagararsa.
But his sons will stir up strife and assemble a great army, which will advance forcefully, sweeping through like a flood, and will again carry the battle as far as his fortress.
11 “Sa’an nan sai sarkin Kudu zai kama hanya da fushi zuwa yaƙi da sarkin Arewa, wanda zai tattara babbar rundunar yaƙi, amma za a ci shi da yaƙi.
In a rage, the king of the South will march out to fight the king of the North, who will raise a large army, but it will be delivered into the hand of his enemy.
12 Sa’ad da zai kawar da rundunar, sarkin Kudu zai cika da girman kai zai kuma kashe mutane dubbai, duk da haka ba zai kasance mai nasara ba.
When the army is carried off, the king of the South will be proud in heart and will cast down tens of thousands, but he will not triumph.
13 Sarki Arewa kuma zai ƙara tara babbar rundunar soja, wadda ta fi ta dā girma; bayan waɗansu shekaru kuma, zai tafi yaƙi da babbar rundunar mayaƙa cike da kayan yaƙi.
For the king of the North will raise another army, larger than the first, and after some years he will advance with a great army and many supplies.
14 “A waɗannan lokutan mutane da yawa za su tashi gāba da sarkin Kudu. Amma waɗansu’yan kama-karya za su taso daga jama’arka da niyya su cika abin da wahayin ya ce, amma za a fatattake su.
In those times many will rise up against the king of the South. Violent ones among your own people will exalt themselves in fulfillment of the vision, but they will fail.
15 Sa’an nan sarkin arewa zai zo ya gina mahaurai a jikin katagar birni don yă ci birnin da yaƙi. Sojojin nan na Kudu kuwa ba za su iya tsayawa ba, ko zaɓaɓɓun jarumawansu ma, gama za su rasa ƙarfin tsayawa.
Then the king of the North will come, build up a siege ramp, and capture a fortified city. The forces of the South will not stand; even their best troops will not be able to resist.
16 Wanda ya kai harin zai yi yadda ya ga dama, ba wanda zai iya ja da shi. Zai kafa kansa a Kyakkyawar Ƙasa zai kuma sami ikon da zai hallaka ta.
The invader will do as he pleases, and no one will stand against him. He will establish himself in the Beautiful Land, with destruction in his hand.
17 Zai yunƙura yă zo da ƙarfin dukan masarautarsa zai kuma nemi haɗinkan sarkin Kudu. Zai kuma ba shi diyarsa yă aura don yă lalatar da mulkin, amma shirinsa ba zai yi nasara ba ko yă taimake shi ba.
He will resolve to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and will reach an agreement with the king of the South. He will give him a daughter in marriage in order to overthrow the kingdom, but his plan will not succeed or help him.
18 Sa’an nan zai mai da hankalinsa zuwa ƙasashe a bakin kogi, zai kuma kama da yawansu, amma wani komanda zai kawo ƙarshen faɗin ransa, zai kuma sa faɗin ransa yă koma masa.
Then he will turn his face to the coastlands and capture many of them. But a commander will put an end to his reproach and will turn it back upon him.
19 Bayan wannan, zai juya ga kagarar ƙasarsa, amma zai yi tuntuɓe yă fāɗi, ba kuwa za a ƙara ganinsa ba.
After this, he will turn back toward the fortresses of his own land, but he will stumble and fall and be no more.
20 “Magājinsa zai aiki mai karɓar haraji don darajar masarautarsa. Amma ba da daɗewa ba za a hallaka shi, duk da haka ba da fushi ko cikin yaƙi ba.
In his place one will arise who will send out a tax collector for the glory of the kingdom; but within a few days he will be destroyed, though not in anger or in battle.
21 “Magājin wannan sarki zai zama wani mutumin banza wanda ma bai fito daga gidan sarauta ba. Zai taso ba zato ba tsammani, yă ƙwace sarautar ta hanyar zamba.
In his place a despicable person will arise; royal honors will not be given to him, but he will come in a time of peace and seize the kingdom by intrigue.
22 Sa’an nan zai shafe mayaƙa masu yawa a gabansa; zai hallaka har da waɗanda suke mulki na alkawari.
Then a flood of forces will be swept away before him and destroyed, along with a prince of the covenant.
23 Bayan ƙulla yarjejjeniya da shi, zai yi zamba cikin aminci, kuma zai sami damar hawan mulki da goyon baya mutane kaɗan.
After an alliance is made with him, he will act deceitfully; for he will rise to power with only a few people.
24 Sa’ad da yankuna mafi arziki suke ji kome lafiya yake, zai kai musu hari kuma Zai aikata abin da kakanninsa ba su taɓa yi ba. Zai rarraba abin da aka kwaso daga yaƙi, da ganima, da dukiya ga dukan mabiyansa. Zai kuma yi shiri yă kai wa mafaka hari, amma na ɗan lokaci ne kawai.
In a time of peace, he will invade the richest provinces and do what his fathers and forefathers never did. He will lavish plunder, loot, and wealth on his followers, and he will plot against the strongholds—but only for a time.
25 “Tare da babbar rundunar mayaƙa zai yi ƙarfin hali yă far wa sarkin Kudu da yaƙi. Sarkin kudu zai haɗa babbar rundunar soja mai ƙarfi don yaƙin, amma ba zai iya karo da shi ba, domin za a shirya masa maƙarƙashiya.
And with a large army he will stir up his power and his courage against the king of the South, who will mobilize a very large and powerful army but will not withstand the plots devised against him.
26 Waɗanda suke ci daga tanadin sarki za su yi ƙoƙari su hallaka shi; za a share mayaƙansa, kuma za a kashe mutane masu yawa a yaƙin.
Those who eat from his provisions will seek to destroy him; his army will be swept away, and many will fall slain.
27 Sarakunan nan biyu sun sa mugunta a ransu. Za su zauna a tebur guda su yi ta shara wa juna ƙarya, amma a banza, gama lokacin da aka ƙayyade bai yi ba tukuna.
And the two kings, with their hearts bent on evil, will speak lies at the same table, but to no avail, for still the end will come at the appointed time.
28 “Sarkin Arewa zai koma ƙasarsa da dukiya mai girma, amma zuciyarsa za tă yi gāba da tsattsarkan alkawari. Zai ɗauki mataki a kan wannan abu sa’an nan yă koma ƙasarsa.
The king of the North will return to his land with great wealth, but his heart will be set against the holy covenant; so he will do damage and return to his own land.
29 “A ƙayyadadden lokaci zai sāke kai wa Kudu hari, amma a wannan karo abin da zai faru zai sha bamban daga abin da ya faru can baya.
At the appointed time he will invade the South again, but this time will not be like the first.
30 Jiragen ruwa yammancin bakin teku za su yi gāba da shi, zuciyarsa kuwa za tă yi sanyi. Sa’an nan zai juya ya huce haushinsa a kan tsattsarkan alkawari. Zai komo yă nuna jinƙai ga waɗanda suka juya wa tsattsarkan alkawari baya.
Ships of Kittim will come against him, and he will lose heart. Then he will turn back and rage against the holy covenant and do damage. So he will return and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant.
31 “Mayaƙansa za su taso su ƙazantar da kagarar haikali za su kuma kawar da hadaya ta kullum. Sa’an nan za su kafa abin banƙyama da yake lalatarwa.
His forces will rise up and desecrate the temple fortress. They will abolish the daily sacrifice and set up the abomination of desolation.
32 Ta wurin daɗin baki zai gurɓata waɗannan da suka karya alkawari, amma mutanen da suka san Allahnsu za su yi tsayin daka su yi jayayya da shi.
With flattery he will corrupt those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist him.
33 “Waɗanda suke da hikima za su wayar da kan mutane da yawa, duk da haka za a kashe su da takobi, waɗansu da wuta, a washe waɗansu a kai su bauta.
Those with insight will instruct many, though for a time they will fall by sword or flame, or be captured or plundered.
34 Sa’ad da suka fāɗi, za su sami ɗan taimako, mutane da yawa za su haɗa kai da su, amma da munafunci.
Now when they fall, they will be granted a little help, but many will join them insincerely.
35 Waɗansu masu hikima za su yi tuntuɓe, don a tsabtacce su, a tsarkake su, su yi tsab, har matuƙar da aka ƙayyade ta yi.
Some of the wise will fall, so that they may be refined, purified, and made spotless until the time of the end, for it will still come at the appointed time.
36 “Sarkin zai yi abin da ya ga dama. Zai ɗaukaka yă kuma girmama kansa gaba da kowane allah zai kuma faɗa munanan abubuwa a kan Allahn alloli. Zai yi nasara har sai lokacin hukunci ya cika, gama abin da aka ƙaddara zai cika.
Then the king will do as he pleases and will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and he will speak monstrous things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed, for what has been decreed must be accomplished.
37 Ba zai kula da alloli iyayensa ba ko wanda mata suke sha’awa, balle ma yă ga darajar wani allah, amma zai ɗaukaka kansa gaba da su duka.
He will show no regard for the gods of his fathers, nor for the one desired by women, nor for any other god, because he will magnify himself above them all.
38 A maimakonsu, zai ɗaukaka allahn kagarai; allahn da kakanninsa ba su ko sani ba, shi ne zai miƙa masa zinariya, da azurfa, da duwatsu masu daraja, da abubuwa masu tsada.
And in their place, he will honor a god of fortresses—a god his fathers did not know—with gold, silver, precious stones, and riches.
39 Zai kai wa kagarai mafi ƙarfi hari da taimakon baƙon allah zai kuma girmama waɗanda suka yarda da shi zai ba su girma, ya kuma shugabantar da su a kan mutane da yawa, zai raba musu ƙasa ta zama ladansu.
He will attack the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him, making them rulers over many and distributing the land for a price.
40 “A lokaci ƙarshe sarkin Kudu zai tasar masa da yaƙi, sarkin Arewa kuwa zai tunzura, yă tasar masa da kekunan yaƙi da mahayan dawakai, da jiragen ruwa da yawa. Zai ratsa ƙasashe, yă ci su da yaƙi, yă wuce.
At the time of the end, the king of the South will engage him in battle, but the king of the North will storm out against him with chariots, horsemen, and many ships, invading many countries and sweeping through them like a flood.
41 Zai kuma mamaye Kyakkyawa Ƙasa. Ƙasashe masu yawa za su fāɗi, amma Edom, Mowab da kuma shugabannin Ammon za su kuɓuta daga hannunsa.
He will also invade the Beautiful Land, and many countries will fall. But these will be delivered from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the leaders of the Ammonites.
42 Zai fadada mulkinsa har zuwa ƙasashe masu yawa; Masar ma ba za tă tsira ba.
He will extend his power over many countries, and not even the land of Egypt will escape.
43 Zai mallaki dukiyoyi na zinariya, da na azurfa, da dukan abubuwa masu tsada na Masar. Zai kuma ci Libiyawa da Kush da yaƙi.
He will gain control of the treasures of gold and silver and over all the riches of Egypt, and the Libyans and Cushites will also submit to him.
44 Amma labari daga gabas da arewa za su firgita shi, shi kuwa zai ci gaba da yin yaƙi da zafi, yă karkashe mutane da yawa, yă shafe su.
But news from the east and the north will alarm him, and he will go out with great fury to destroy many and devote them to destruction.
45 Zai kafa tentin mulkinsa tsakanin tekunan da suke a kyakkyawan tsauni mai tsarki. Duk da haka zai zo ga ƙarshensa, kuma babu wanda zai taimake shi.
He will pitch his royal tents between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain, but he will meet his end with no one to help him.
