< Daniela 8 >

1 I KA makahiki ekolu o ke au ia Belehazara ke alii, ua hoikeia mai ia'u ia Daniela nei, ka hihio mahope iho o ka mea i hoikeia mai ia'u mamua.
In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar, a vision appeared to me, Daniel, subsequent to the one that had appeared to me earlier.
2 Ua ike au ma ka hihio ana; a i kuu ike ana, ma ka pakaua no au ia wa, ma Susana, ma ka aina o Elama; a ike aku la au ma kuu hihio ana, aia no au ma ka muliwai o Ulai.
And in the vision I saw myself in the citadel of Susa, in the province of Elam. I saw in the vision that I was beside the Ulai Canal.
3 Alaila, leha ae la ko'u mau maka, a ike aku la au, aia hoi, he hipa kane e ku ana ma kapa o ka muliwai nona na pepeiaohao elua; ua kiekie kona mau pepeiaohao; ua oi aku uae ke kiekie o kekahi i ko kekahi, a o ka mea kiekie oia ka mea i ulu hope ae.
Then I lifted up my eyes and saw a ram with two horns standing beside the canal. The horns were long, but one was longer than the other, and the longer one grew up later.
4 Ike aku la no hoi au i ua hipa kane la e hookui ana ma ke komohana, a me ke kukulu akau, a me ke kukulu hema; i ole e hiki i kekahi holoholona ke ku imua ona, aole nae i hiki i kekahi ko hoopakele ae mai kona lima aku; aka, hana iho la oia mamuli o kona makemake iho a lilo no ia i mea nui.
I saw the ram charging toward the west and the north and the south. No animal could stand against him, and there was no deliverance from his power. He did as he pleased and became great.
5 A i ko'u noonoo aia, aia hoi, he kao kane, holo mai la ia mai ke komohana mai, maluna o ka honua a pau, aole ia e paa iki ma ka lepo; a o ua kao kane la he pepeiaohao nui mawaenakonu o kona mau maka.
As I was contemplating all this, suddenly a goat with a prominent horn between his eyes came out of the west, crossing the surface of the entire earth without touching the ground.
6 A hele mai la ia i ka hipakane nona ua mau pepeiaohao la elua, ka mea a'u i ike ai e ku ana ma ka muliwai, a holo aku la io na la, me ka huhu ikaika.
He came toward the two-horned ram I had seen standing beside the canal and rushed at him with furious power.
7 A i ko'u ike ana ia ia, hookokoke ia i ka hipakane, ua wela kona huhu ia ia, a kui ikaika aku la oia i ka hipakane, a haihaiia kona mau pepeiaohao; aole ikaika iloko O ka hipakane e ku imua ona, aka, hoolei oia ia ia ilalo i ka lepo, a hehi iho la ia maluna ona; aohe mea nana e hoopakele i ka hipakane mai kona lima aku.
I saw him approach the ram in a rage against him, and he struck the ram and shattered his two horns. The ram was powerless to stand against him, and the goat threw him to the ground and trampled him, and no one could deliver the ram from his power.
8 No ia mea, mahuahua loa ka ikaika o ua kao kane la; a i kona wa i ikaika loa ai, ua uhaiia kona pepeiaohao nui; a ua paniia no hoi Kona hakahaka i na pepeiaohao nui eha, e ku pono ana i na makani eha o ka lani.
Thus the goat became very great, but at the height of his power, his large horn was broken off, and four prominent horns came up in its place, pointing toward the four winds of heaven.
9 Kupu mai la no hoi kekahi pepeiaohao liilii noloko mai o kekahi o lakou, a lilo ia i mea nui loa ma ke kukulu hema, a ma ka hikina, a ma ka aina oluolu.
From one of these horns a little horn emerged and grew extensively toward the south and the east and toward the Beautiful Land.
10 A haanui oia ia ia iho i ka Puali o ka lani; a hoohina i kekahi o ka puali, a me na hoku ilalo i ka honua, a hehi iho la maluna o lakou.
It grew as high as the host of heaven, and it cast down some of the host and some of the stars to the earth, and trampled them.
11 Oia, haanui oia ia ia iho i ka luna o ka poe puali, a hoopau oia i ka mohai o na la, o ka wahi hoano kekahi, ua hooleiia ilalo.
It magnified itself, even to the Prince of the host; it removed His daily sacrifice and overthrew the place of His sanctuary.
12 A ua haawiia mai ia ia kekahi poe e ku e i ua mau mohai la no ka hala, a ua hoolei oia i ka mea oiaio ilalo i ka honua; a hana aku la oia, a lanakila.
And in the rebellion, the host and the daily sacrifice were given over to the horn, and it flung truth to the ground and prospered in whatever it did.
13 Alaila, lohe aku la au i kekahi haipule e olelo ana, a i aku kekahi haipule e i ua haipule la e olelo ana, Pehea ka loihi o ka hihio no ka mohai o na la, a no ka mea ino e hooneoneo ai, no ka haawi ana i kahi hoano a me ka puali, e hehiia malalo iho o ka wawae?
Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another holy one said to him, “How long until the fulfillment of the vision of the daily sacrifice, the rebellion that causes desolation, and the surrender of the sanctuary and of the host to be trampled?”
14 A i mai la ia ia'u, A hala na la elua tausani ekolu haneri; alaila e hoomaemae ia kahi hoano.
He said to me, “It will take 2,300 evenings and mornings; then the sanctuary will be properly restored.”
15 Eia kekahi, i ka wa a'u a Daniela nei i ike ai ma ka hihio, a imi au i ke ano, alaila, aia hoi, ku mai la kekahi mea imua o'u, ua like kona ano me ko ke kanaka.
While I, Daniel, was watching the vision and trying to understand it, there stood before me one having the appearance of a man.
16 A lohe aku la au i ka leo kanaka ma Ulai e kahea ana, i ae la, E Gaberiela e, e hoakaka ae oe i na mea i ikeia ma ka hihio, i keia kanaka.
And I heard the voice of a man calling from between the banks of the Ulai: “Gabriel, explain the vision to this man.”
17 Alaila, hookokoke mai oia i kahi a'u i ku ai, a i kona hiki ana mai, makau iho la au, a haule iho ilalo ko'u maka: aka, i mai la oia ia'u, E ike pono oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka; no ka mea, no ka manawa mahope keia hihio.
As he came near to where I stood, I was terrified and fell facedown. “Son of man,” he said to me, “understand that the vision concerns the time of the end.”
18 A i kana olelo ana mai ia'u, ua moe loa iho la au ilalo ko'u maka i ka honua: aka, hoopa mai oia ia'u, a hoala ae ia'u iluna.
While he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep, with my face to the ground. Then he touched me, helped me to my feet,
19 I mai oia ia'u, Aia hoi, e hoakaka au ia oe i ka mea e hiki mai ana ma ka manawa hope o ka huhu ana; no ka mea, no ka wa mahope keia hihio.
and said, “Behold, I will make known to you what will happen in the latter time of wrath, because it concerns the appointed time of the end.
20 O ka hipakane au i ike ai nona na pepeiaohao elua, he mau alii laua o Media, a me Peresia.
The two-horned ram that you saw represents the kings of Media and Persia.
21 A o ua kao kane huluhulu la, oia ke alii o Helene; a o ua pepeiaohao nui la mawaenakonu o kona mau maka, oia ke alii mua.
The shaggy goat represents the king of Greece, and the large horn between his eyes is the first king.
22 A o ka haihai ana o ia mea, a kupu mai na mea eha e pani i kona hakahaka, pela no e ku mai ai na aupuni eha mai loko mai o keia lahuikanaka, aka, aole nae e like me kona ikaika.
The four horns that replaced the broken one represent four kingdoms that will rise from that nation, but will not have the same power.
23 A i ka hope o ko lakou aupuni, i ka manawa i piha ai ko lakou hewa, e ku mai kekahi alii, he maka hihiu kona, he mea ike i na olelo pohihihi.
In the latter part of their reign, when the rebellion has reached its full measure, an insolent king, skilled in intrigue, will come to the throne.
24 A e nui auanei kona ikaika, aole nae ma kona ikaika iho; a e luku loa aku ia, a lanakila hoi; e hana aku ia, a e pepehi no hoi ia i ka poe ikaika, a me ka poe haipule.
His power will be great, but it will not be his own. He will cause terrible destruction and succeed in whatever he does. He will destroy the mighty men along with the holy people.
25 A ma kona maalea hoi, e hoolanakila oia i ka hana maalea a kona lima; e hookiekie oia ia ia iho iloko o kona naau, a i ka wa maluhia, e luku aku ia i na lehulehu; a e ku e no hoi ia i ke Alii o na'lii; aka, e okaoka liilii no ia me ka lima ole.
Through his craft and by his hand, he will cause deceit to prosper, and in his own mind he will make himself great. In a time of peace he will destroy many, and he will even stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be broken off, but not by human hands.
26 A o ka hihio no ke ahiahi a me ke kakahiaka, ka mea i haiia mai, he oiaio no ia; no ia mea, e pani oe i ua hihio la; no ka mea, no na la he nui loa ia.
The vision of the evenings and the mornings that has been spoken is true. Now you must seal up the vision, for it concerns the distant future.”
27 Owau, o Daniela nei, ua maule iho la au, a ua mai hoi i kekahi mau la. Mahope iho, ku ae la au iluna, a hana ae la i ka hana a ke alii; a kahaha nui iho la ko'u naau i ua hihio la, aka, aohe mea nana i ike.
I, Daniel, was exhausted and lay ill for days. Then I got up and went about the king’s business. I was confounded by the vision; it was beyond understanding.
