Daniel 10
1 Iti maikatlo a tawen a panagturay ni Ciro nga ari ti Persia, maysa a mensahe ti naipaltiing kenni Daniel, (a maawagan pay iti Beltesazar) ket pudno daytoy a mensahe. Maipanggep daytoy iti dakkel a gubat. Naawatan ni Daniel ti mensahe idi naaddaan isuna iti pannakaawat iti sirmata.
In the third year of Cyrus king of the Persians, a word was revealed to Daniel surnamed Baltassar, and a true word, and great strength: and he understood the word: for there is need of understanding in a vision.
2 Kadagidiay nga al-aldaw, siak a ni Daniel ket nagladladingit iti las-ud iti tallo a lawas.
In those days I Daniel mourned the days of three weeks.
3 Saanak a nangnangan iti naiimas a taraon, iti karne, saanak nga immin-inom iti arak, ken saanak a nagsapsapo iti lana agingga a maturpos ti tallo a lawas.
I ate no desirable bread, and neither flesh, nor wine entered into my mouth, neither was I anointed with ointment: till the days of three weeks were accomplished.
4 Iti maikaduapulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti umuna a bulan, bayat ti kaaddak iti igid ti dakkel a karayan (nga isu ti Tigris),
And in the four and twentieth day of the first month I was by the great river which is the Tigris.
5 timmangadak ket nakakitaak iti maysa a tao a nakakawes iti lino, nakabarikes isuna iti barikes a puro a balitok a nagtaud iti Ufaz.
And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw: and behold a man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with the finest gold:
6 Naraniag ti bagina a kasla iti topaz, naraniag ti rupana a kasla iti kimat, kasla umap-apuy a pagsilawan dagiti matana, kasla napasileng a gambang dagiti takkiag ken sakana, ket kasla ariwawa ti nakaad-adu a tattao ti timekna.
And his body was like the chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as a burning lamp: and his arms, and all downward even to the feet, like in appearance to glittering brass: and the voice of his word like the voice of a multitude.
7 Siak laeng a ni Daniel ti nakakita iti sirmata, ta saan a nakita dagiti lallaki a kadduak ti sirmata. Nupay kasta, nagbutengda iti kasta unay, ket nagtarayda a naglemmeng.
And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw it not: but an exceeding great terror fell upon them, and they fled away, and hid themselves.
8 Isu a siak laeng ti nabati ken nakakita iti daytoy a naisangsangayan a sirmata. Napakapsutannak unay; nakabutbuteng ti panagbaliw iti naraniag a langak; ket napakapsutannak unay.
And I being left alone saw this great vision: and there remained no strength in me, and the appearance of my countenance was changed in me, and I fainted away, and retained no strength.
9 Ket nangngegko dagiti saona - ket bayat a mangmangegko nga agsasaoda, naawananak iti puot ket natuangak a papakleb iti daga.
And I heard the voice of his words: and when I heard, I lay in a consternation, upon my face, and my face was close to the ground.
10 Maysa nga ima ti nangsagid kaniak, ket pinagkutukotna dagiti tumengko ken pinagpigergerna dagiti imak.
And behold a hand touched me, and lifted me up upon my knees, and upon the joints of my hands.
11 Kinuna ti anghel kaniak, “Daniel, sika a tao a dungdungoen unay ti Dios, awatem dagiti sasao nga ibagbagak kenka, ket tumakderka, ta naibaonak nga umay kenka.” Idi naibagana daytoy a sao kaniak, agpigpigergerak a timmakder.
And he said to me: Daniel, thou man of desires, understand the words that I speak to thee, and stand upright: for I am sent now to thee. And when he had said this word to me, I stood trembling.
12 Ket kinunana kaniak, “Saanka nga agbuteng Daniel. Manipud idi umuna nga aldaw nga inkeddengmo a mang-awat iti sirmata ken agpakumbabaka iti sangoanan ti Diosmo, naipangag dagiti saom, ket immayak gapu kadagiti saom.
And he said to me: Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, to afflict thyself in the sight of thy God, thy words have been heard: and I am come for thy words.
13 Linapdannak ti prinsipe iti pagarian ti Persia, ket nagtalinaedak sadiay kadagiti ar-ari ti Persia iti las-ud ti duapulo ket maysa nga aldaw. Ngem immaynak tinulongan ni Miguel, maysa kadagiti kangatoan a prinsipe.
But the prince of the kingdom of the Persians resisted me one and twenty days: and behold Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, and I remained there by the king of the Persians.
14 Ita, immayak tapno tulonganka a mang-awat no ania ti mapasamak kadagiti tattaom iti maudi nga al-aldaw. Ta ti sirmata ket para kadagiti masungad pay laeng nga al-aldaw.”
But I am come to teach thee what things shall befall thy people in the latter days, for as yet the vision is for days.
15 Idi insaona kaniak dagitoy, nagdumogak ken saanak a makasao.
And when he was speaking such words to me, I cast down my countenance to the ground, and held my peace.
16 Maysa a kaas-asping ti tao ti nangsagid kadagiti bibigko, ket inungapko ti ngiwatko ket nagsaoak kenkuana a nakatakder iti sangoanak, “Apok, pinagbutengnak ti sirmata, ket napakapsutanak unay.
And behold, as it were the likeness of a son of man touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spoke, and said to him that stood before me: O my Lord, at the sight of thee my joints are loosed, and no strength hath remained in me.
17 Siak ket adipenmo. Kasanoak a makisao iti apok? Ta napakapsutanak unayen ket saanak a makaanges.”
And how can the servant of my lord speak with my lord? for no strength remaineth in me, moreover my breath is stopped.
18 Sinagid ken pinapigsanak ti kaas-asping ti tao.
Therefore he that looked like a man touched me again, and strengthened me.
19 Kinunana, “Tao nga ay-ayaten unay ti Dios, saanka nga agbuteng. Kappia koma ti adda kenka. Bumilegka ita; bumilegka!” Idi nagsao isuna kaniak, pimmigsaak ket kinunak, “Agsao koma ti apok, ta pinapigsanak.”
And he said: Fear not, O man of desires, peace be to thee: take courage and be strong. And when he spoke to me, I grew strong: and I said: Speak, O my lord, for thou hast strengthened me.
20 Kinunana, “Ammom kadi no apay nga immayak kenka? Agsubliak ita tapno makirangetak a maibusor iti prinsipe ti Persia. Inton rummuarak, umayto ti prinsipe ti Grecia.
And he said: Dost thou know wherefore I am come to thee? and now I will return, to fight against the prince of the Persians. When I went forth, there appeared the prince of the Greeks coming.
21 Ngem ibagak kenka ti nakasurat iti Libro ti Kinapudno - awan ti siasinoman a mangipakpakita a nabilegda malaksid kaniak, malaksid kenni Miguel a prinsipeyo.”
But I will tell thee what is set down in the scripture of truth: and none is my helper in all these things, but Michael your prince.
