< 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 message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the message was true, even a great warfare. He understood the message, and had understanding of the vision.
2 Tanīs dienās es, Daniēls, biju noskumis cauras trīs nedēļas.
In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks.
3 Gardas barības es neēdu, un ne gaļa ne vīns nenāca manā mutē, es arī nesvaidījos, tiekams trīs veselas nedēļas bija pagājušas.
I ate no pleasant food. No meat or wine came into my mouth. I didn’t anoint myself at all, until three whole weeks were fulfilled.
4 Un pirmā mēneša divdesmit ceturtā dienā es biju Hideķeles lielupes malā.
In the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel,
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.
I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a man clothed in linen, whose waist was adorned with pure gold of Uphaz.
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.
His body also was like beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches. His arms and his feet were like burnished bronze. The voice of his words was like the voice of a multitude.
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.
I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me didn’t see the vision, but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves.
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 left alone and saw this great vision. No strength remained in me; for my face grew deathly pale, and I retained no strength.
9 Un es dzirdēju viņa valodas balsi, un kad es viņa valodas balsi dzirdēju, tad es nokritu pamiris uz savu vaigu pie zemes.
Yet I heard the voice of his words. When I heard the voice of his words, then I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
10 Un redzi, roka mani aizskāra un palīdzēja, ka es pacēlos uz saviem ceļiem un uz savām rokām.
Behold, a hand touched me, which set me on my knees and on the palms of 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.
He said to me, “Daniel, you greatly beloved man, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have been sent to you, now.” When he had spoken this word to me, I stood trembling.
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, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel; for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. I have come for your words’ sake.
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 prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; but, behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me because I remained there with 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 make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision is yet for many days.”
15 Un kad viņš šos vārdus ar mani runāja, tad es ar savu vaigu skatījos pie zemes un paliku klusu.
When he had spoken these words to me, I set my face toward the ground and was mute.
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.
Behold, one in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth, and spoke and said to him who stood before me, “My lord, by reason of the vision my sorrows have overtaken me, and I retain no 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 can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? For as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me. There was no breath left in me.”
18 Tad atkal viens mani aizskāra, kam bija cilvēka izskats, un mani spēcināja.
Then one like the appearance of a man touched me again, and he strengthened me.
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.
He said, “Greatly beloved man, don’t be afraid. Peace be to you. Be strong. Yes, be strong.” When he spoke to me, I was strengthened, and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
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, “Do you know why I have come to you? Now I will return to fight with the prince of Persia. When I go out, behold, the prince of Greece will come.
21 Bet es tev stāstīšu, kas patiesības rakstos uzrakstīts; un neviena nav, kas mani pret viņiem spēcina, kā vien jūsu valdnieks Miķelis.
But I will tell you that which is inscribed in the writing of truth. There is no one who holds with me against these but Michael your prince.
