< Daniel 8 >

1 In yac aktolu ke pacl Belshazzar el tokosra, nga tuh liye aruruma se akluo.
In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared to me, [even to] me, Daniel, after that which appeared to me at the first.
2 In aruruma se inge, nga liye mu nga oasr in siti potyak lun Susa in acn Elam. Nga tu sisken Infacl Ulai,
And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I [was] at Shushan [in] the palace, which [is] in the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was by the river Ulai.
3 ac nga liye soko sheep mukul sisken infacl ah, su oasr koac na loeloes lukwa kac. Koac soko ma sikyak tok tuh loes liki ma soko ma sikyak meet.
Then I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, there stood before the river a ram which had [two] horns: and the [two] horns [were] high; but one [was] higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
4 Ac nga liye sheep mukul soko ah sang koacl sinukin acn roto, epang, ac eir. Wangin kosro ku in tulokinilya, ku kaingkunla kuiyal. El oru na oana lungse lal, ac arulana orek funmwet.
I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him, neither [was there any] that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great.
5 Ke nga srike in suk kalmen ma se inge, na nani soko sasma tuku liki acn roto, upala mui lal ah oru nial tiana pusral acn uh. Oasr koac soko tume inmasrlon atronmutal ma arulana kalem.
And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat [had] a notable horn between his eyes.
6 Nani soko ah yume nwe yurin sheep mukul soko ma nga liye tu sisken infacl ah, ac atuyang nu sel ke kuiyal nufon.
And he came to the ram that had [two] horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran to him in the fury of his power.
7 Nga liye na ke el uni sheep mukul soko ah. Upala kasrkusrak lal, oru el atuyang nu kacl twe koteya koac lukwa ah. Wangin ku lun sheep mukul soko ah in lainul. Toloki el nu infohk uh ac futfutungyuki el, ac wangin sie su ku in molella.
And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was moved with anger against him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.
8 Nani soko ah yokyokelik na funmwet lal, tusruktu in pacl se na ma yokelik ku lal uh, na kaptelik koac soko kacl ah, na koac akosr sifilpa kapak aolla, ac kais soko koac inge foralik nu epang, eir, kutulap ac roto.
Therefore the he-goat became very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and in its stead came up four notable ones towards the four winds of heaven.
9 Ac soko koac srisrik srunak liki soko sin koac akosr inge, su kuiyal fahsrelik nwe sun acn eir ac kutulap, ac sun pac Fulan Wuleang.
And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which became exceeding great, towards the south, and towards the east, and towards the pleasant [land].
10 Kuiyal yokyokelik nwe ke na el ku pac in mweun lain un mwet mweun lun kusrao, ac mweuni pac itu uh ac sisla kutu selos nu fin fohk uh, ac longolosi.
And it grew great, [even] to the host of heaven; and it cast down [some] of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.
11 Na koac srisrik soko ah oru nwe ke na el lain pac Fisrak lun un mwet mweun lun kusrao, ac tulokinya kisa ma orek nu sel ke len nukewa, ac aktaekyala Tempul uh.
Yes, he magnified [himself] even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily [sacrifice] was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
12 Mwet uh orekma koluk in Tempul, ac tila oru mwe kisa ma fal in orek we ke len nukewa uh, ac alu pwaye uh sisila. Koac srisrik soko ah orala nukewa ma el ke oru uh.
And a host was given [him] against the daily [sacrifice] by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered.
13 Na nga lohng sie lipufan uh siyuk sin sie pac, “Ma liyeyuk in aruruma se inge ac orek nwe ngac? Ma koluk lulap inge ac eisla acn sin orek kisa uh nwe ngac? Ac lolongyuki un mwet mweun lun kusrao ac Tempul uh nwe ngac?”
Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said to that certain [saint] who spoke, How long [shall be] the vision [concerning] the daily [sacrifice], and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
14 Ac nga lohng lipufan se ngia topuk ac fahk, “Ac orek ouinge ke len sie tausin siofok lumngaul, su orala pacl in kisa luo tausin tolfoko ke eku ac lotu, ma wangin kisa ac orek. Toko, na Tempul uh ac fah sifil akmutalyeyuk.”
And he said to me, Until two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
15 Nga srike in suk kalmen aruruma se inge, na in kitin pacl ah na sie ma su oana luman mwet se tume nu sik.
And it came to pass, when I, [even] I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.
16 Nga lohng sie pusra pangme liki Infacl Ulai ac fahk, “Gabriel, fahkak nu sel kalmen aruruma se el liye an.”
And I heard a man's voice between [the banks of] Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this [man] to understand the vision.
17 Na Gabriel el kaluku ac tu siskuk, na nga arulana sangengla ac putati nu infohk uh. El fahk nu sik, “Mwet sukawil, ne mwet se na pa kom, a nga ke in kalem sum kalmen aruruma uh. Aruruma sac fahkak ke saflaiyen faclu.”
So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said to me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end [shall be] the vision.
18 Ke el kaskas ah, nga putati nu infohk uh ac nikinyula. Tusruk el sruokyuwi, ac tulokinyuyak,
Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face towards the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.
19 ac fahk, “Nga akkalemye nu sum ma ac sikyak ke sripen kasrkusrak lun God. Aruruma sac fahkak ke ma ac sikyak ke safla lun ma nukewa.
And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end [shall be].
20 “Sheep mukul soko kom liye ma koac lukwa oan kac ah, pa tokosrai lun Media ac Persia.
The ram which thou sawest having [two] horns [are] the kings of Media and Persia.
21 Nani soko ah pa tokosrai lun Greece, ac koac soko ma kom tuh liye tume inmasrlon atronmutal ah pa tokosra se emeet uh.
And the rough goat [is] the king of Grecia: and the great horn that [is] between his eyes [is] the first king.
22 Koac akosr ma kom tuh liye sikyak tukun koac soko meet ah kaptalik ah, kalmac pa ac fah kitakatelik mutunfacl lulap sac nu ke tokosrai akosr, su ac fah tia ku oana kuiyen tokosrai se meet ah.
Now that being broken, whereas four stood up in its place, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.
23 “Ke ac apkuran in safla pacl lun tokosrai akosr inge, ac koluk lalos uh arulana yokelik pwanang ac enenu in akkeokyeyuk elos, na ac fah oasr sie pac tokosra sikyak su ac arulana likkeke, kutasrik, ac akmas.
And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
24 Ku lal ac fah yokyokelik — tusruktu tia ke ku lal sifacna. Yohk ma el ac fah kunausla, ac ma nukewa el oru ac fah wo ouiyal kac. El ac fah pwanang mwet na yohk ku la in kunausyukla, ac mwet lun God uh ac musalla pac.
And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25 Ke sripen kutasrik ac orek fwacfa lal uh, el ac fah eis pac wo ouiya ke inkanek kikiap lal. El ac fah sifacna yukunul ke ma el oru, ac kunausla mwet puspis ke inkanek lukma lal. El ac lain pac Tokosra se ma fulat liki nukewa, tusruktu ac kunausyukla el, tuh tia ke ku lun mwet uh.
And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify [himself] in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
26 Aruruma se kom tuh liye ke pacl in kisa in eku ac lotu ma aketeyuki nu sum ah, ac fah pwayena. Tusrktu mansis kom in tia srumun in pacl inge, mweyen ac fah akpwayeiyuk ke pacl na loes fahsru uh.”
And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told [is] true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it [shall be] for many days.
27 Nga arulana toasrla ac mas ke len na pus. Na nga fah tukakek ac folokla nu ke orekma ma tokosra el pakiya nu sik, tusruktu nga fohs na ke aruruma sac, ac tia ku in etu kalmac.
And I Daniel fainted, and was sick [certain] days; afterward I rose, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood [it].
