< Daniel 7 >

1 In yac se meet ke Belshazzar el tokosra lun acn Babylonia, nga tuh oru mweme se, ac liye sie aruruma ke fong sac. Nga tuh simusla koanon mweme sac, ac pa inge ma nga simusla ke
In the first year of Belshazzar, king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream, and visions of his head upon his bed. Then he wrote the dream, and related the sum of the matters.
2 ma nga liye in fong sac: Eng uh tuhtuh yen nukewa me, ac oru meoa uh in arulana pulkulakyak.
Daniel spake and said: —I saw in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of heaven burst forth upon the great sea.
3 Kosro na lulap sulallal akosr otyak in meoa uh me, ac tia oana sie lumahlos.
And four great beasts came up out of the sea, diverse one from another.
4 Ma soko oemeet ah oana luman lion soko, tusruktu oasr posohksok kacl oana eagle se. Ke nga srakna ngetang liye, na posohksok kacl uh kipatla. Na kosro soko ah touyak ac tulokyak in tu oana mwet se. Itukyang nu sel elan nunak in mwet.
The first was like a lion, and had the wings of an eagle; I beheld till its wings were plucked from it, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon its feet like a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
5 Kosro soko aklukwa ah lumahl oana bear soko ma tuyak fin nial tok. El ngalis sri in pap tolkwe ke oalul, ac pusra se fahk nu sel, “Kangla nufon ikwa ma kom ku in kang an!”
And behold, another beast, the second, like to a bear; and it stood up on one side, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth; and they spake thus to it: Arise, devour much flesh!
6 Ke nga srakna tu liye, na soko pacna kosro lulap sikyak. Lumahl oana kosro leopard soko, tusruk oasr posohksok akosr oan fintokol, oana posohksok ke won uh, ac oasr sifa akosr kacl. Lumahl oana in oasr wal na fulat lal.
After this I beheld, and lo, another, like a leopard, which had upon its back four wings of a bird; the beast also had four heads, and dominion was given to it.
7 Ke nga srakna tu liye, kosro lulap soko akakosr ah sikyak. El arulana fokoko, koluk lumahl ac aksangeng ngetngetal. El ac sang wihs osra na lulap kacl uh ac itungya ma el ac sruokya uh, na el ac lolongya in mokutkuti. El tia oana kosro saya uh, mweyen oasr koac singoul kacl.
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful, and terrible, and exceedingly strong; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured, and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet, and it differed from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
8 Ke nga ngetang liye koac inge, nga liye koac srisrik soko kapak inmasrlo. El sinukunla tolkwe sin koac ma oan meet ah. Koac srisrik soko inge oasr atronmutun mwet kac, ac sie oalu su arulana yokla tungak la.
I gave heed to the horns, and behold, there came up among them another little horn, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots; and behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.
9 Ke nga ngetang liye ma inge, oasr kutu nien muta fulat oakwuki in acn sac. Sie su nuna moul oemeet me el muta fin sie mwe muta inge. Nuknuk lal uh fasrfasr oana snow, ac aunsifal nasnas oana unen sheep. Mwe muta se lal inge oan fin wheel ma firir, ac sarmelik oana e,
I beheld, till thrones were placed, and an aged one seated himself, his garment white like snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne like a fiery flame, and its wheels like burning fire.
10 ac soko koa in e uh sroma liki mwe muta fulat sac oana soko infacl. Oasr tausin puspis mwet su akola in kulansupwal, ac million puspis mwet tu ye mutal. Na nununku uh mutawauk, ac book uh ikakla.
A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him; thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him; the tribunal sat, and the books were opened.
11 Ke nga ngetang liye ah, nga srakna lohng pusren tungak ac sifacna konkin lun koac srisrik soko ah. Nga srakna ngetang a kosro soko akakosr ah anwuki, ac manol sisiyang nu in e uh ac isisyak.
I beheld; and because of the great words which the horn spake, I beheld till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed and given to the burning flame.
12 Kosro saya ah itukla wal lalos, tusruktu filfilla elos in sifilpa muta ke kitin pacl.
As to the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away, for the duration of their lives had been appointed for a season and a time.
13 Ke pacl se nga liye aruruma se inge in fong sac, nga liye sie ma su oana luman mwet se. El fahsru ac pukunyeng uh apnulla, na el fahla nu yurin el su moul oemeet me, ac kolyukla el nu ye mutal.
I saw in the night visions, and behold, with the clouds of heaven came one like a son of man, and came to the aged one, and they brought him near before him.
14 Itukyang nu sel wal, sunak, ac ku fulat, tuh mwet in mutunfacl nukewa ac kain in kas nukewa fah kulansapwal. Ku fulat lal ac fah oan ma pahtpat, ac tokosrai lal ac fah wangin saflaiya.
And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not be destroyed.
15 Aruruma ma nga liye inge oru nga fosrngala ac arulana fohsak.
I Daniel was grieved in my spirit within me, and the visions of my head troubled me.
16 Nga fahsryang nu yurin sie selos su tu insac, ac siyuk lah el ac ku in akkalemye kalmen ma inge nu sik. Na el fahkma kalmac uh.
I came near to one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth concerning all this. So he told me, and made known to me the interpretation of the things.
17 El fahk ouinge, “Kosro lulap akosr inge pa tokosrai lulap akosr ma ac sikyak fin faclu.
These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.
18 Ac mwet lun God Fulatlana elos ac fah eis ku fulat ac sruokya nwe tok ma pahtpat.”
Then shall the saints of the Most High receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, even for ever and ever.
19 Ac nga sifilpa ke lohng kutu ke kosro soko akakosr ma tia oana kosro saya nufon — kosro aksangeng soko ma ac sang wihs osra kacl uh ac nia bronze kacl uh in itungya ma el sruokya uh, na lolongya.
Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth beast, which differed from all the others, exceedingly dreadful, whose teeth were of iron and his nails of brass, which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;
20 Ac nga ke etu pac ke koac singoul ke sifal, ac ke koac soko ma sikyak pac tok ac oru tolkwe koac uh in putatla ah. Oasr atronmutal ac oalul, ac arulana upa tungak lal uh. Yohk aksangeng lal uh liki koac nukewa saya ah.
and concerning the ten horns which were in his head, and the other which came up, and before which three fell, —even that horn which had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, and whose appearance was larger than that of his fellows.
21 Ke nga ngetang liye ma inge, na koac srisrik soko ah mweun lain mwet lun God ac kutangulosla.
I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints and prevailed against them,
22 Na el su nuna moul oemeet me tuku, ac akkalemye lah nununku lal wi layen mwet lun God Fulatlana. Sun tari pacl fal tuh mwet lun God in eis ku fulat lun tokosra.
until the aged one came, and judgment was rendered to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints should possess the kingdom.
23 Pa inge ma el aketeya nu sik: “Kosro soko akakosr ah pa tokosrai lulap se akakosr ma ac sikyak nu fin faclu, ac el ac fah siena liki tokosrai lulap nukewa saya uh. El ac fah itungya faclu nufon, ac futfutungya.
He spake thus: The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom upon the earth, which shall differ from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 Koac singoul ah pa tokosra singoul ma ac leumi tokosrai lulap sac. Na sie pac tokosra ac fah sikyak, ac el ac arulana sie liki na tokosra nukewa ma tuku meet ah, ac el ac fah sinukunla tokosra tolu.
And the ten horns are ten kings, which shall arise out of this kingdom; and another shall arise after them; and he shall differ from the former, and shall subdue three kings.
25 El ac fah kaskas lain God Fulatlana, ac akkeokye mwet lun God. El ac fah srike elan ekulla ma sap lun lulalfongi lalos ac len in kufwa lalos, na mwet lun God uh ac fah muta ye ku lal ke lusen yac tolu tafu.
And he will speak great words against the Most High, and will harass the saints of the Most High, and will resolve to change times and laws; and they shall be given into his hand a time, and times, and half a time.
26 Na nununku uh ac fah mutawauk, ac eisla ku lal uh, ac arulana kunausulla.
But the tribunal shall sit, and his dominion shall be taken away, and consumed and destroyed forever.
27 Ku ac pwengpeng lun tokosrai nukewa fin faclu ac fah itukyang nu sin mwet lun God Fulatlana. Ku fulat lalos ac fah wangin saflaiya, ac mwet kol nukewa fin faclu ac fah kulansupwalos ac akos sap lalos.”
And the sovereignty and dominion and power over all kingdoms under the whole heaven shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
28 Pa inge saflaiyen ma srumunyuk uh. Yoklana sangeng luk, oru nga arulana efla, ac nga sruokyana ma inge oan sik.
Here ended his words. As for me Daniel, my thoughts terrified me much, and my countenance changed; but I kept the matter in my heart.
