Taneo 8
1 Hagi Belsasa'ma kinima manino egeno nampa 3ma hia kafufina, nagra Danieli'na mago'ene nampa 2 avanagnaza ke'noe.
During the third year that Belshazzar was the King [of Babylonia], I had another vision.
2 Ana ava'nagna zampima ke'noana, Elamu mopafima ugagotama hu'nea ran kuma Susa kumate Ulai timofo ankenare oti'nena ana ava'nagna zana ke'noe.
In that vision I was in Susa, the capital city of Elam Province. I was [standing] alongside the Ulai Canal.
3 Hagi anante nagra kesgama hu'na koana, tare za'za pazive hunte'nea ve sipisipi afu'mo tinkenare oti'nege'na ke'noe. Hagi tare pazive'mokea za'za hu'na'anagi henkarfama hageno mareri'nea pazivemo'a, kotama marerinea pazivemofona agatereno za'za hu'ne.
I looked up and saw a ram that was standing alongside the canal. It had two [long] horns, but the newest one was longer than the other one.
4 Ana ve sipisipimo'a hankavenentake hu'neakino kogeno'a, zage fre kazigane, noti kazigane, sauti kazigane vuno eno nehuno, maka zama avugama me'nea zana ome mitre eme mitre hu'ne. Ana higeno mago'a afi'zagamo'za oti hankavetine'za hara hunente'za, agrama ha'ma huzmantea vahera zamagu vazigara osu'naze. Ana hazageno agra avesite nazano hunaku'ma hiazana nehuno hankave nentake afi'zaga efore hu'ne.
The ram butted/knocked away [with its horns] everything that was west and everything that was north and everything that was south of it. There were no [other] animals that were able to oppose it, and none that could rescue/save [other animals] from its power. The ram did whatever it wanted to do and became very powerful.
5 Hanki ana ava'nama koa zanku antahintahi hakare nehu'na koana, mago ve meme afu'mo'a zage fre kazigati efore huteno, moparera agiamo'a avako osiaza, ame huno maka ama mopafina agareno vuno e'no hu'ne. Ana mememofona tare avurgararemofo amunompina mago tusizankna pazive mareri'ne.
While I was thinking [about what I had seen, in the vision] I saw a goat come from the west. It ran across the land so quickly, that [it seemed like] its feet did not touch the ground. This goat had one very large horn between its eyes.
6 Hagi tinkenare'ma oti'nege'nama ko'ma ke'noa ve sipisipi afu'ma mani'nerega, ana ve meme afu'mo'a tusi arimpa nehegeno taragino vu'ne.
It was very angry, and it ran [straight] toward the ram that I had seen [previously, the ram] that was standing alongside the canal.
7 Ana hige'na anante kogeno ana mememo'a sipisipi afu'mofona tusi arimpa ahenenteno, eme ahe nefrino, tare pazive'ararena rufutagi atre'ne. Ana sipisipimo'a hankavetino hara hugara osigeno, meme afumo'a ahetregeno masegeno agiareti rehapati'ne. Ana higeno mago afi'zagamo'a, mememofo hankavefintira aza huno agura ovazi'ne.
The goat struck the ram furiously and broke off its two horns, with the result that the ram was unable [to defend itself]. [So] the goat knocked the ram down and trampled on it. No one could rescue the ram from the goat’s power.
8 Anama huteno'a mememo'a tusi hankavenentake zaga efore hu'ne. Hianagi hankave'amo'ma ome rama nehigeno'a, hankavenentake pazive'amo'a ruhantagirami'ne. Ana higeno anampintira 4'a hankave pazivetami hanatiteno, ama mopamofona 4'a kaziga asoparega avugosa ome hunte eme hunte hu'ne.
The goat became very powerful. But when its power was very great, its horn was broken off. But four [other] large horns took its place. They each pointed in a different direction.
9 Hagi mago pazivepintira mago osi pazive hanatiteno, ana pazivemo'ma ome ran kerfama huno hankavema enerino'a, sauti kaziga vahe'ene zage hanati kaziga vahe'ene, knare zantfama hu'nea Israeli mopafi vahera zamazeri haviza hu'ne.
[Then] from one of those [large horns] appeared a little horn, which became very big, [and pointed] toward the south and [then] toward the east and [then] toward the beautiful land [of Israel].
10 Ana nehigeno ana pazivemofo hankavemo'a ra ome huno monafinkama nemaniza sondia vahe ha' ome huzmante'ne. Ana nehuno monafima me'nea hanafitamina eri atafri atreno agareti zamare hapati'ne.
[The man who was represented by] that horn became very strong, with the result that he attacked some of the [soldiers of the] army of heaven, and (OR, meaning) the stars in the sky [which represented God’s people]. He threw some of them to the ground and trampled on them.
11 Ana nehuno monafima nemaniza sondia vahete Kva nekna hanue nehuno agrite'ma mago mago zupama ofama hunentaza ofanena erinetreno, mono'ma hunentaza nonena eri haviza hutre'ne.
He (defied/considered himself to be greater than) the leader of the army [of heaven], and prevented [priests from] offering sacrifices to him. He also (defiled the temple/caused the temple to become unholy).
12 Vahemo'zama kumi'ma nehaza zamo ana pazive'mofona hankave amigeno, monafima nemaniza sondia vahe hankavea eri netreno, mago mago zupama ofama nehaza zana eri netreno, tamage nanekea eritre'ne. Ana nehuno ana pazivemo'ma nazano hunaku'ma hiazana amne tro huke'za hu'ne.
Then God’s people allowed the [man who was represented by] that horn to control/rule them, with the result that they sinned by offering sacrifices to him. And he threw to the ground the [laws that contained the] true religion. Everything that he did was successful.
13 Anante ruotage'ma hu'na'a ankerontre'ma mani'nampintira magomo'a amanage huno magomofona antahige'ne. Ke ontahi havi avu'ava zama ama ava'nagna zampima fore hia zantamina nama'a kna maniteno vagaregahie? Ana hanige'za vahe'mo'za ina zupa ete eri agafa hu'za mago mago zupama huterema nehaza ofa hugahaze? Ina zupa ana pazivemofo hankavea vagaresnigeno, Monafi sondia vahetamima zamazeri haviza nehuno, mono noma agiareti'ma eri havizama nehia zamo'a vagaregahie?
Then I heard two angels who were talking to each other. One of them asked, “How long will the things/events that were in this vision continue? How long will the man who rebels against God and causes [the temple] to be defiled be able to prevent [priests from] offering sacrifices? How long will he trample on the temple and on the armies of heaven?”
14 Higeno mago ankeromo'a kenona huno, ama ana knazamo'a 2tausen 300'a zagene hanine maniteno ome vagaresnige'za, Anumzamofo mono nona ete eri so'e hugahaze.
The other angel replied, “[It will continue] for 1,150 days. During all of that time, [people will not be permitted to offer sacrifices] in the morning or in the evening. After that, the temple will be purified.”
15 Hanki nagra Danieli'na ana avana gnazama nege'na, ana ava'nagna zamofo agafa'agu'ma antahintahi hakarema nehugeno'a, ame huno mago ne'mo navuga eme oti'ne.
While I, Daniel, was trying to understand what the vision meant, suddenly [an angel] who resembled a man stood/appeared in front of me.
16 Anante antahugeno mago vahe'mofo ageru'mo Ulai tintegati kezatino, Danieli'ma ke'nea ava'nagna zamofo agafa'a Gebrieliga eri ama hunka asamio hu'ne.
And I heard a man call out from [the other side of] the Ulai Canal, saying, “Gabriel, explain to him the meaning of the vision [that he saw]!”
17 Higeno ankero ne' Gebrieli'ma eno nagrama oti'noa tvaonte'ma ege'na, nagra tusi koro nehu'na navugosaregati mopafi kepri hu'na masogeno, Gebrieli'a huno, mopafi vahetfa mani'nane. Hianagi monane mopanema vagareku'ma hania knafima fore'ma hania knaza ava'nafima kana zantamimofo agafa'a antahi ama' hugahane.
So Gabriel came and stood beside me. I was very terrified, with the result that I fell onto the ground. But he said to me, “You human, it is necessary for you to understand that [the events that you saw in] the vision will occur [near] the time that [the world] will end.”
18 Hagi ana ankeromo'ma agi'ma reaka huno keagama nenasamigeno'a, navumo'a kagigagi hige'na navugosaregati mopafi traka hu'na mase'noe. Hianagi ana ankeromo'a navako huno nazeri otige'na oti fatgo hu'noe.
While he was speaking, I fainted. I lay there, unconscious, with my face still on the ground. But Gabriel put his hand on me and lifted me up in order that I could stand again.
19 Anama huteno'a anante amanage hu'ne. Henkama knazama fore'ma hania zamofo kasaminaku e'noe. Anumzamo'a arimpa ahe'zama'ama eri ama'ma hania kna ko huhamprinte neankino, kagrama ava'nafima ke'nana kante anteno, ana maka zamo'a eama hugahie.
Then he said, “I [have come here to] tell you what will happen because of [God] being angry. These things will happen near the time when [the world] will end.
20 Hagi mago ve sipisipi afu'mofoma tare pazive'ma hunte'negenka ke'nanana, e'i Midia kini ne'ene Pesia kini netrente huvame huke me'na'e.
As for the ram with two horns that you saw, those horns [represent] the kingdoms of Media and Persia.
21 Hagi azokake'ma hu'nea ve meme afumo'a Grisi kini nete huvame huno me'ne. Ana mememofoma tare avurgamofo amu'nompima mago ra pazive'ma hunte'negenka'ma ke'nanana, e'i ko'ma Grisi mopare'ma kinima efore hu'nea nete huvame huno me'negenka ke'nane.
The goat [that you saw represents] the kingdom of Greece, and the horn that appeared between its eyes [represents] its first king.
22 Hagi ana mememofoma 4'a ne'onse pazivetamima hanati'za ra pazive'ma ruhantagi netre'za agri noma eri'naza zamofo agafa'amo'a, Grisi mopa 4'afi refko hanige'za, 4'a kini vahe'mo'za kegava hugahaze. Hianagi ko'ma Grisi mopare kinima mani'nea ne'mofo hankavea agateoregahaze.
As for the four horns that grew after the first horn was broken off, they [represent] four kingdoms into which that first kingdom will be divided [after the first king dies]. Those four kingdoms will not be as strong/powerful as the first kingdom was.
23 Hanki henka'a ana 4'a kini vahe'mo'zama kinima mani'za ome vagareku'ma hanaza knafina, vahe'mo'za tusi kumi hu'za eri hakare hugahaze. Anama hanaza knafina mago kini ne' efore hugahiankino, vahera zamage fenkami neteno, havigege nehuno, knare avu'avara huozmantegosie.
The people [in those kingdoms] will become very wicked, with the result that it will be necessary for them to be punished. But near the time when those kingdoms will end, one of those kingdoms will have a king who will be very proud/defiant [IDM]. He will [also] be very fierce and very deceitful.
24 Ana ne'mo'a tusi'a hankave kini efore hugahie. Hianagi agra'a hankaverera anazana osugahie. Ana nehuno hankave kva vahetamine Anumzamofo vahe'enena zamazeri haviza hugahie.
He will become very powerful, but it will not be because of what he himself does. He will terribly destroy things in many places, and he will succeed in doing everything that he wants to. He will get rid of [many] powerful men, and [also] some of God’s people.
25 Ana ne'mo'a havigema huno vahe'ma revatgama hania avu'avazamo hanigeno, maka zampina knarera nehuno, agrama agesama antahisiana nagra maka vahera zamagatere'noe huno antahigahie. Ana nehuno rama'a vahera antri hanazaza huno zamahe nefrino, maka kini vahe'mokizmi Kini nera ha' huntegahie. Hianagi mago vahe'mo ha'hunteno azeri haviza osaniaza agra'a haviza hugahie.
Because he is very cunning/clever, he will succeed by doing things that deceive many people. He will be proud of himself. He will destroy many people when they think that they are safe. He will also rebel against [God] [EUP], who is the greatest king. But [God] will destroy him, without the help [MTY] of any human being.
26 Hagi ava'nagna zampima mika nantera ofaramima nehaza zama negenka, mika kinaga ofaramima nehaza zama ke'nanana, e'i tamage'za ke'nane. Hianagi ana zamo'a ame' huno forera osu zazate meteno fore hugahianki, eri amara hunka vahera ozamasaminka atregeno frakino meno.
What you saw in the vision about [priests being prevented from making] sacrifices in the morning and in the evening, which [I] explained [to you], will surely happen. But [for the present time], do not reveal the vision [to others], because it will be many years before those things happen.”
27 Hagi nagra Danieli'na anankema antahitogeno'a hankavenimo'a omanege'na, mago'a kna kri eri'na mase'noe. Anama hutege'na ete oti'na kini ne'mofo eri'zama e'nerua eri'zante vu'noe. Ana nehu'na ana ava'nama ke'noa zanku antahintahi hakare hu'noanagi, ana ava'namofo agafa'a antahi amara osu'noe.
Then I, Daniel, became weak, and I was sick for several days. Then I arose and [returned to] doing the work that the king [had given to me], but I was perplexed/confused about the vision, and I could not understand it.
