< Daniēla 10 >
1 Kirus, Persiešu ķēniņa, trešā gadā Daniēlim, kas nosaukts Beltsacars, šī parādīšana tapa parādīta, un tas vārds ir patiesīgs un zīmē lielas bēdas, un viņš to lika vērā un saprata to parādīšanu.
In the third year of Cyrus, king of Persia, a secret was unfolded to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, even a hard work: and he had knowledge of it, and the vision was clear to him.
2 Tanīs dienās es, Daniēls, biju noskumis cauras trīs nedēļas.
In those days I, Daniel, gave myself up to grief for three full weeks.
3 Gardas barības es neēdu, un ne gaļa ne vīns nenāca manā mutē, es arī nesvaidījos, tiekams trīs veselas nedēļas bija pagājušas.
I had no pleasing food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, and I put no oil on my body till three full weeks were ended.
4 Un pirmā mēneša divdesmit ceturtā dienā es biju Hideķeles lielupes malā.
And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was by the side of the great river;
5 Un es pacēlu savas acis un skatījos, un redzi, tur bija vīrs nātnu(linu) drēbēs ģērbts, un viņa gurni bija apjozti ar šķīstu zeltu no Upas.
And lifting up my eyes I saw the form of a man clothed in a linen robe, and round him there was a band of gold, of the best gold:
6 Un viņa miesas bija kā krizolita akmens un viņa vaigs kā zibens un viņa acis kā degošas lāpas un viņa rokas un kājas kā degošs varš un viņa valodas balss kā trokšņa skaņa.
And his body was like the beryl, and his face had the look of a thunder-flame, and his eyes were like burning lights, and his arms and feet like the colour of polished brass, and the sound of his voice was like the sound of an army.
7 Un es, Daniēls, redzēju to parādīšanu viens pats, bet tie vīri, kas bija pie manis, to neredzēja, bet liela bailība tiem uzgāja, ka tie bēga un paslēpās.
And I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see it; but a great shaking came on them and they went in flight to take cover.
8 Es tad atliku viens pats un redzēju šo lielo parādīšanu, un pie manis spēka nepalika, un mans vaigs nejauki nobāla, un man spēka vairs neatlika.
So I was by myself, and I saw this great vision, and all my strength went from me; and the colour went from my face.
9 Un es dzirdēju viņa valodas balsi, un kad es viņa valodas balsi dzirdēju, tad es nokritu pamiris uz savu vaigu pie zemes.
But the sound of his words came to my ears, and on hearing his voice I went into a deep sleep with my face to the earth.
10 Un redzi, roka mani aizskāra un palīdzēja, ka es pacēlos uz saviem ceļiem un uz savām rokām.
Then a hand gave me a touch, awaking me, and putting me on my knees and my hands.
11 Un viņš uz mani sacīja: Daniēl, tu mīļais vīrs, ņem vērā tos vārdus, ko es uz tevi runāšu, un celies stāvu, jo tagad es pie tevis esmu sūtīts. Un kad viņš to vārdu ar mani runāja, tad es cēlos trīcēdams.
And he said to me, O Daniel, you man dearly loved, take in the sense of the words I say to you and get up on to your feet: for to you I am now sent; and when he had said this to me I got on to my feet, shaking with fear.
12 Un viņš uz mani sacīja: nebīsties, Daniēl! Jo no tās pirmās dienas, kad tu savā sirdī esi dzinies to saprast un esi mērdējies sava Dieva priekšā, tad tavi vārdi ir paklausīti, un es tavu vārdu dēļ esmu atnācis.
Then he said to me, Have no fear, Daniel; for from the first day when you gave your heart to getting wisdom and making yourself poor in spirit before your God, your words have come to his ears: and I have come because of your words.
13 Bet Persiešu valsts valdnieks man stāvēja pretī divdesmit un vienu dienu, un redzi, Miķelis, viens no tiem pirmajiem valdniekiem, man nāca palīgā, tad es tur uzvarēju pie tiem Persiešu ķēniņiem.
But the angel of the kingdom of Persia put himself against me for twenty-one days; but Michael, one of the chief angels, came to my help; and when I came he was still there with the angel of the kings of Persia.
14 Nu es esmu nācis, tev ziņu dot, kas taviem ļaudīm notiks nākamā laikā, jo arī vēl šī parādīšana notiks pēc ilga laika.
Now I have come to give you knowledge of the fate of your people in the later days; for there is still a vision for the days.
15 Un kad viņš šos vārdus ar mani runāja, tad es ar savu vaigu skatījos pie zemes un paliku klusu.
And after he had said these words to me, I kept my face turned to the earth and was unable to say anything.
16 Un redzi, viens, kas cilvēka bērniem bija līdzīgs, aizskāra manas lūpas. Tad es atdarīju savu muti un sacīju uz to, kas pie manis stāvēja: mans Kungs, par šo parādīšanu mani locekļi dreb, ka man spēka nepaliek.
Then one whose form was like the sons of men put his finger on my lips; and opening my mouth, I said to him who was before me, O my lord, because of the vision my pains have come on me, and I have no more strength.
17 Un kā šā sava kunga kalps var runāt ar šo savu kungu, jo no šī laika spēka pie manis nepaliek, un man arī dvašas neatliek.
For how may this servant of my lord have talk with my lord? for, as for me, straight away my strength went from me and there was no breath in my body.
18 Tad atkal viens mani aizskāra, kam bija cilvēka izskats, un mani spēcināja.
Then again one having the form of a man put his hand on me and gave me strength.
19 Un viņš sacīja: nebīsties, tu mīļais vīrs! Miers lai ir ar tevi! Un ņemies drošu, drošu prātu! Un viņam ar mani runājot, es atspirgu un sacīju: runā, mans Kungs, jo tu mani esi atspirdzinājis.
And he said to me, O man greatly loved, have no fear: peace be with you, be strong and let your heart be lifted up. And at his words I became strong, and said, Let my lord say on, for you have given me strength.
20 Tad viņš sacīja: vai tu zini, kāpēc es pie tevis esmu nācis? Es nu griezīšos atpakaļ, ar Persiešu valdnieku karot, un kad es būšu izgājis, tad nāks Grieķu valdnieks.
Then he said, It is clear to you why I have come to you. And now I will give you an account of what is recorded in the true writings:
21 Bet es tev stāstīšu, kas patiesības rakstos uzrakstīts; un neviena nav, kas mani pret viņiem spēcina, kā vien jūsu valdnieks Miķelis.
But I am going back to make war with the angel of Persia, and when I am gone, the angel of Greece will come. And there is no one on my side against these, but Michael, your angel.
