< Daniela 11 >
1 I KA makahiki mua o Dariu ka Media, ua ku no au iluna e hookupaa a e hooikaika ia ia.
In the first year of Darius the Mede, I myself came to support and protect Michael.
2 Ano e hai aku au ia oe i ka mea oiaio. Aia hoi, e ku mai auanei iluna ekolu alii ma Peresia; a o ka ha e oi nui aku kona waiwai mamua o ko lakou a pau; a ma kona ikaika no ka waiwai e hoala oia i na mea a pau e ku e i ke aupuni o Helene.
Now I will tell you the truth. Three kings will arise in Persia, and a fourth will be far richer than all the others. When he has gained power through his riches, he will stir up everyone against the kingdom of Greece.
3 E ku mai auanei iluna kekahi alii ikaika loa, e alii ana oia me ka ikaika nui, a e hana no hoi ia mamuli o kona makemake iho.
A mighty king will rise up who will rule a very great kingdom, and he will act according to his desires.
4 A i kona ku ana iluna e wawahiia kona aupuni, a maheleia ae la ma na makani eha o ka lani; aole ia no kana poe keiki, aole no mamuli o kona aupuni ka mea ana i malama ai; no ka mea, e hoohioloia kona aupuni, no kekahi poe e ae ia, aole no kana.
When he has risen up, his kingdom will be broken and divided to the four winds of heaven, but not to his own descendants, and not with his power when he had been ruling. For his kingdom will be uprooted for others besides his descendants.
5 A e lilo ana no ke alii o ke kukulu hema i mea ikaika, a o kekahi alii ona, e oi aku kona ikaika mamua o kela, a e alii ana oia; o kona aupuni he aupuni nui loa ia.
The king of the South will become strong, but one of his commanders will become even stronger than he and will rule his kingdom with great power.
6 A ma ka hope o na makahiki e kuikahi lakou ia lakou kekahi me kekahi; no ka mea, o hele mai ke kaikamahine a ke alii o ke kukulu hema i ke alii o ke kukulu akau e hookuikahi; aka, aole e mau ia ia ka ikaika o ka lima; aole ia e ku paa, aole kona lima; aka, e haawiia aku oia, a me ka poe nana ia i lawe mai, a me ka mea nana ia i hanau, a me ka mea i hooikaika ia ia ia mau la.
After a few years, when the time is right, they will make an alliance. The daughter of the king of the South will come to the king of the North to confirm the agreement. But she will not keep her arm's strength, nor will he stand, or his arm. She will be abandoned—she and those who brought her, and her father, and the one who supported her in those times.
7 Aka, e ku mai auanei kekahi mailoko mai o ka lala o kona kumu ma kona hakahaka, ka mea nana e hele mai me na koa, a e komo hoi iloko o ka hulili o ke alii o ke kukulu akau, a hana ku e no hoi, a lanakila maluna iho;
But a branch from her roots will rise up in her place. He will attack the army and enter the fortress of the king of the North. He will fight them, and he will conquer them.
8 A lawe pio aku no hoi oia iloko o Aigupita i ko lakou mau akua, a me ko lakou mau kii i hooheheeia, a me ko lakou mau ipu maikai o ke kala a me ke gula; a e oi aku kona mau makahiki mamua o ke alii o ka akau.
He will carry off to Egypt their gods along with their cast metal figures and their precious vessels of silver and of gold. For some years he will stay away from the king of the North.
9 Pela e komo mai ke alii o ka hema i ko aupuni, a e hoi hou i kona aina iho.
Then the king of the North will invade the realm of the king of the South, but he will withdraw to his own land.
10 Aka, o kana poe keiki o hoalaia mai lakou, a e hoakoakoa no lakou i na koa he lehulehu; oiaio, kekahi o lakou e hele mai no ia, a e hoohalana, a kahe aku hoi; alaila, e hoi mai ia a hoalaia e ku e aku i kona hulili.
His sons will get ready and assemble a great army. It will keep coming and will flood everything; it will pass through all the way to his fortress.
11 A e huhu ke alii o ke kukulu hema, a e hele mai ia e kaua pu me ia, me ke alii no o ka akau; a e hoomakaukau ia i na kanaka he lehulehu; aka, e haawiia ua poe lehulehu la iloko o kona lima.
Then the king of the South will become very angry; he will go and fight against him, the king of the North. The king of the North will raise up a great army, but the army will be given into his hand.
12 A i kona lawe ana i ua poe nui la, e hookiekieia kona naau; a e hoohiolo iho oia i na tausani he nui; aole nae ia e lilo i mea ikaika malaila.
The army will be carried off, and the heart of the king of the South will be lifted up, and he will make tens of thousands to fall, but he will not be victorious.
13 No ka mea, e hoi mai auanei ke alii o ke kukulu akau, a e hoomakaukau i kekahi poe nui e oi aku ana i kela poe mamua, a hala kekahi mau makahiki, e hele mai no oia me ka poe koa he lehulehu, a me ka waiwai he nui.
Then the king of the North will raise up another army, greater than the first. After some years, the king of the North will surely come with a great army supplied with much equipment.
14 Ia mau manawa he nui ka poe e ku e mai i ke alii o ke kukulu hema; ka poe powa o kou poe kanaka kekahi e hookiekie ia lakou iho e hooko i ka hihio; aka, e haule auanei lakou.
In those times many will rise against the king of the South. Sons of the violent among your people will set themselves in order to fulfill a vision, but they will stumble.
15 E hele mai ke alii o ke kukulu akau e hana i puu, a e lawe pio i na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa; aole e ku paa na lima o ke kukulu hema, aole hoi kona poe i waeia, aole hoi on a ikaika e ku e ai.
The king of the North will come, pour out earth for siege mounds, and capture a city with fortifications. The forces of the South will not be able to stand, not even their best soldiers. There will be no strength to stand.
16 Aka, o ka mea e hele ku o mai ia ia, e hana no ia mamuli o kona makemake, aole e hiki i kekahi ke ku imua ona; a e ku iho oia ma ka aina hanohano o hoopauia'i e kona lima.
Instead, the one who comes will act according to his desires against him; no one will stand in his way. He will stand in the land of beauty, and destruction will be in his hand.
17 A e haka pono kona maka e komo me ka ikaika a pau o kona aupuni, a me ka poe pololei pu me ia; pela no oia e hana'i; e haawi no hoi ia i ke kaikamahine o na wahine, e hoohaumia ana ia ia; aka, aole kela e ku me ia, aole hoi ma kona aoao.
The king of the North will set his face to come with the strength of his entire kingdom, and with him will be an agreement that he will make with the king of the South. He will give him a daughter of women in marriage to ruin the kingdom of the South. But the plan will not succeed or help him.
18 Mahope huli ae la oia i kona maka i na mokununi, a e lawe pio aku i na mea he lehulehu; aka, na kekahi lunakoa e hoopio i kona inaina nona iho: a e hoihoi ia ia i kona inaina maluna iho ona.
After this, the king of the North will pay attention to the coastlands and will capture many of them. But a commander will end his arrogance and will cause his arrogance to turn back upon him.
19 Alaila, e huli ae la ia i kona maka i na hulili o kona aina iho; aka, e okupe auanei ia a hina ilalo, aole hoi e ike hou ia mai.
Then he will pay attention to the fortresses of his own land, but he will stumble and fall; he will not be found.
20 Alaila, e ku mai iluna ma kona wahi kekahi mea nana e hoouna i ka mea auhau waiwai maluna o ka nani o ia aupuni; aka, aole e hala na la he nui a lukuia oia, aole na ka huhu, aole hoi na ke kaua.
Then someone will rise up in his place who will make a tax collector pass through for the sake of the splendor of the kingdom. But in the next days he will be broken, but not in anger or in battle.
21 A e ku mai no iluna ma kona hakahaka kekahi mea ino, aole lakou e haawi ia ia i ka hanohano o ke aupuni; aka, e hele mai oia i ka wa maluhia, a e loaa ia ia ke aupuni ma na olelo malimali.
In his place will rise up a despised person to whom the people will not have given the honor of royal power; he will come unexpectedly and will take over the kingdom by trickery.
22 A me ka ikaika o ka waikahe e lukuia'i lakou imua ona, a e haihai liilii ia, oia, o ke alii e kuikahi ana.
An army will be swept away like a flood from before him. Both that army and the leader of the covenant will be destroyed.
23 A mahope o ke kuikahi ana me ia, e hana hoopunipuni oia; no ka mea, e pii oia iluna, a e lilo ia i mea ikaika me ka poe uuku.
From the time an alliance is made with him, he will act deceitfully; with only a small number of people he will become strong.
24 I ka wa maluhia e komo oia maloko o na wahi momona o ka aina; a e hana oia i na mea a kona poe makua i haua ole ai, aole hoi na makua o kona mau makua; e hooleilei wale aku iwaena o lakou i ka waiwai pio a me ka waiwai kailiia, a me ka waiwai maoli; oiaio, e hoomaopopo oia i kona manao e ku e i na wahi paa, a i kekahi manawa.
Without warning he will come into the richest part of the province, and he will do what neither his father nor his father's father did. He will spread among his followers the booty, the plunder, and the wealth. He will plan the overthrow of fortresses, but only for a time.
25 A e hoala oia i kona ikaika, me kona naaukoa, a me ke kaua nui e ku e i ke alii o ke kukulu hema; a o ke alii o ke kukulu hema e hoalaia mai no hoi ia me ka poe koa he nui a ikaika loa e kaua; aole nae e hiki ke ku paa; no ka mea, e manao ku e ana lakou ia ia.
He will wake up his power and his heart against the king of the South with a great army. The king of the South will wage war with a large, very powerful army, but he will not stand because others will make plots against him.
26 Oiaio, o ka poe e ai ana i kana ai e luku lakou ia ia; a o ko ia la poe koa e halana lakou; a he nui ka poe e haule i ka pepehiia.
Even those who eat his fine food will try to destroy him. His army will be swept away like a flood, and many of them will fall killed.
27 A noonoo na naau o ua mau alii elua la ma ke kolohe; a e olelo hoopunipuni no laua ma ka papaaina hookahi; aka, aole no ia e pomaikai ana; no ka mea, no ka manawa i hoopaaia'i ka hopena.
Both these kings, with their hearts set on evil against each other, will sit at the same table and lie to each other, but it will be of no use. For the end will come at the time that has been fixed.
28 A i kona hoi ana aku i kona aina me ka waiwai nui; alaila ku e kona naau i ka berita hoano; a e hana aku hoi ia i kona manao, a hoi no i kona aina iho.
Then the king of the North will go back into his land with great riches, with his heart set against the holy covenant. He will act and then will return to his own land.
29 I ka manawa i hoopaaia'i e hoi hou mai no ia, a hele no hoi i ke kukuluhema; aka, aole e like me ko ka mua, aole hoi me ko ka hope.
At the appointed time he will return and come against the South again. But this time it will not be as before.
30 No ka mea, e holo ku e mai no na moku no Kitima ia ia; nolaila e kaumaha no, a hoi mai, a e huhu loa aku ia i ka berita hoano; pela no oia e hana'i; a hoi mai no ia, a e kuikahi pu me ka poe i haalele i ua berita hoano la.
For ships of Kittim will come against him, and he will become afraid and will turn back. He will be furious against the holy covenant, and he will show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant.
31 A e ku mai auanei na koa ma kona aoao, a e hoohaumia lakou i kahi hoano ikaika, a e hoopau i ka mohai o na la, a e hooku ae lakou i ka mea ino e hooneoneo ai.
His forces will rise up and profane the fortress sanctuary. They will take away the regular burnt offering, and they will set up the abomination that causes desolation.
32 A o ka poe hoino aku i ka berita, e hoohuli oia ia lakou mamuli o na olelo malimali; aka, o ka poe i ike pono i ko lakou Akua, e ikaika lakou, a e hana aku no hoi.
As for those who acted wickedly against the covenant, he will deceive them and corrupt them. But the people who know their God will be strong and will take action.
33 A o ka poe naauao o na kanaka, e ao aku lakou i na mea he nui; aka, e haule auanei lakou i ka pahikaua, a me ka lapalapa ahi, e lawe pio ia, a e hao wale ia lakou i na la he nui.
The wise among the people will make many understand. But they will stumble by the sword and by flame; they will stumble into captivity and into being robbed for days.
34 A i ko lakou haule ana, e kokuaia mai lakou he wahi kokua iki no; aka, he nui ka poe e pili ia lakou me na olelo malimali.
In their stumbling, they will be helped with a little help. In hypocrisy many will join themselves with them.
35 A e haule no kekahi poe naauao, i mea e hoao ai ia lakou, a e hoomaemae ai ia lakou, e hookeokeo ai ia lakou, a hiki i ka manawa o ka hopena; no ka mea, aia no ia i ka wa i hoopaaia mai ai.
Some of the wise will stumble so that refining will happen to them, and cleansing, and purifying, until the time of the end. For the appointed time is still to come.
36 A o ke alii e hana no ia mamuli o kona makemake iho; a e hookiekie ia ia iho maluna o na akua a pau, a e olelo i na mea kupaianaha ku e i ke Akua o na akua, a e pomaikai no nae ia a hiki i ka pau ana o ka huhuia mai; no ka mea, o ka mea i hoopaaia mai, e hookoia mai no ia.
The king will act according to his desires. He will lift himself up and make himself great above every god. Against the God of gods he will say astonishing things, for he will succeed until the wrath is completed. For what has been decreed will be done.
37 Aole oia e malama i ke Akua o kona poe kupuna, aole hoi i ka makemake o na wahine; aole pu hoi oia e malama i kekahi akua, aka, e hookiekie oia ia ia iho maluna o na mea a pau.
He will pay no attention to the gods of his ancestors or to the god desirable to women. Neither will he will pay attention to any other god. For all above every one he will make himself great.
38 Aka, ma ko ia la hakahaka e hoomana ai oia i ke akua o na pakaua; o ke akua a kona poe kupuna i ike ole ai, oia kana e hoonani ai me ke gula, a me ke kala, a me ka pohaku maikai, a me na mea nani hoi.
He will honor the god of fortresses instead of these. It is a god whom his fathers did not acknowledge that he will honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and valuable gifts.
39 Pela oia e hana ai ma na pakaua no ua akua e la; e hoonani oia i ka poe manaoio aku ia ia, a e hoalii oia ia lakou maluna o na mea he nui loa, a e mahele oia i ka aina i uku.
He will attack the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god. To anyone who acknowledges him, he will give much honor. He will make them rulers over many people, and he will divide up the land as a reward.
40 A i ka wa mahope e pahu aku no ke alii o ka hema ia ia; a e hele mai no hoi ke alii o ka akau me he puahiohio la, e ku e mai ia ia me na kaa kaua, a me na hoohololio, a me na moku he nui loa; a e komo ia iloko o na aina, a e halana e hele aku ma kela aoao.
At the time of the end the king of the South will attack. The king of the North will storm against him with chariots and horsemen, and with many ships. He will go against lands, flood them, and pass through.
41 A e komo no hoi ia iloko o ka aina nani, a e hookahuliia na mea he nui; aka, e hoopakeleia keia mau mea mai kona lima aku, o ko Edoma, a me ko Moaba, a me na pookela o na keiki a Amona.
He will go into the land of beauty, and tens of thousands of Israelites will fall. But these will escape from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the remainder of the people of Ammon.
42 E o aku hoi oia i kona lima maluna o na aina; aole no hoi e pakele ka aina o Aigupita.
He will extend his hand into lands; the land of Egypt will not be rescued.
43 Oia no ka mea maluna o na waiwai o ke gula, a me ke kala, a maluna o na mea maikai o Aigupita; a o ka poe Libuana, a me ko Aitiopa, aia lakou ma kona kapuwai.
He will have control over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the riches of Egypt; the Libyans and the Cushites will be in his footsteps.
44 Aka, no kona lono ana i na olelo mai ka hikina mai, a mai ke kukulu akau mai, e pilikia oia; no ia mea, e hele aku la me ka huhu nui e pepehi aku, a e luku loa aku i na mea he nui wale.
But news from the east and the north will frighten him, and he will go out with great rage to completely destroy and to set many apart for destruction.
45 A e kukulu iho oia i ka halelewa o kona halealii iwaena o na kai a me ka mauna nani hoano; aka, e hiki aku no oia i kona hope, aohe mea nana ia e kokua mai.
He will set up the tent of his royal residence between the seas and the mountain of the beauty of holiness. He will come to his end, and there will be no helper for him.
