< Daniēla 7 >

1 Belsacara, Bābeles ķēniņa, pirmā gadā Daniēls redzēja sapni un savas galvas parādīšanas uz savas gultas. Tad viņš to sapni uzrakstīja, stāstīdams tās svarīgās lietas.
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel had a dream and visions of his head while on his bed. Then he wrote the dream and told the sum of the matters.
2 Daniēls iesāka un sacīja: es redzēju savā parādīšanā naktī, un raugi, tie četri debess vēji lauzās uz lielo jūru.
Daniel spoke and said, “I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the sky broke out on the great sea.
3 Un četri lieli zvēri izkāpa no jūras, ikkatrs savu izskatu.
Four great animals came up from the sea, different from one another.
4 Pirmais bija kā lauva, un tam bija kā ērgļu spārni. Es skatījos, tiekams viņam spārni tapa izrauti un tas no zemes tapa uzcelts un stāvēja uz kājām kā cilvēks, un tam tapa dota cilvēka sirds.
“The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings. I watched until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on two feet as a man. A man’s heart was given to it.
5 Un redzi, tur bija cits zvērs itin kā lācis, tas stāvēja vienā malā, un tam bija trīs lieli zobi mutē starp saviem citiem zobiem, un uz to tapa tā sacīts: celies un ēd daudz gaļas.
“Behold, there was another animal, a second, like a bear. It was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth. They said this to it: ‘Arise! Devour much flesh!’
6 Pēc tam es redzēju, un raugi, tur bija vēl cits zvērs itin kā pardelis(leopards), tam bija četri putnu spārni uz muguras, un šim zvēram bija četras galvas, un tam tapa dota vara.
“After this I saw, and behold, another, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird. The animal also had four heads; and dominion was given to it.
7 Un pēc tam es redzēju nakts parādīšanās, un raugi, ceturtais zvērs, briesmīgs un negants un ļoti stiprs, un tam bija lieli dzelzs zobi, tas ēda un satrieca un to, kas atlika, tas samina ar kājām, un tas bija citāds nekā tie citi zvēri priekš viņa, un tam bija desmit ragi.
“After this I saw in the night visions, and, behold, there was a fourth animal, awesome, powerful, and exceedingly strong. It had great iron teeth. It devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet. It was different from all the animals that were before it. It had ten horns.
8 Un es tos ragus liku vērā, un redzi, vēl viens mazs rags cēlās starp tiem, un viņa priekšā trīs no tiem pirmajiem ragiem tapa izlauzti, un redzi, tanī ragā bija acis kā cilvēka acis un mute, kas lielas lietas runāja.
“I considered the horns, and behold, there came up amongst them another horn, a little one, 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 arrogantly.
9 Es skatījos, tiekams krēsli tapa nolikti, un laiku Vecais apsēdās, kam drēbes bija baltas kā sniegs un galvas mati kā šķīsta vilna, Viņa krēsls bija kā uguns liesmas, un Viņa skrituļi bija degošs uguns.
“I watched until thrones were placed, and one who was Ancient of Days sat. His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool. His throne was fiery flames, and its wheels burning fire.
10 Un no Viņa priekšas iztecēja uguns upe. Tūkstošu tūkstoši Viņam kalpoja, un desmit reiz' tūkstošu tūkstoši stāvēja Viņa priekšā; tiesa tapa turēta, un grāmatas tapa atvērtas.
A fiery stream issued and came out from before him. Thousands of thousands ministered to him. Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The judgement was set. The books were opened.
11 Es skatījos tās lielās valodas dēļ, ko tas rags runāja, es skatījos, kamēr tas zvērs tapa nonāvēts un viņa miesa nokauta un nodota, ka ugunī taptu sadedzināta.
“I watched at that time because of the voice of the arrogant words which the horn spoke. I watched even until the animal was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given to be burnt with fire.
12 Arī tiem citiem zvēriem vara tapa atņemta, jo tiem bija laiks un stunda nolikta, cik ilgi tiem bija dzīvot.
As for the rest of the animals, their dominion was taken away; yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
13 Es redzēju nakts parādīšanās, un raugi, viens nāca debess padebešos kā Cilvēka Dēls, un nāca pie tā laiku Vecā, un tapa vests Viņa priekšā.
“I saw in the night visions, and behold, there came with the clouds of the sky one like a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of Days, and they brought him near before him.
14 Un Viņam tapa dota valdība un godība un valstība: visiem ļaudīm, visām tautām un valodām būs Viņam kalpot; Viņa valdība ir mūžīga valdība, kas neiznīkst un Viņa valstībai nav gala.
Dominion was given him, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which will not pass away, and his kingdom one that will not be destroyed.
15 Man, Daniēlim, sirds miesās nogura, un manas galvas parādīšanas mani iztrūcināja.
“As for me, Daniel, my spirit was grieved within my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.
16 Es piegāju pie viena no tiem, kas tur stāvēja, un vaicāju no tā skaidru patiesību par visu to. Un viņš man to izteica un man izstāstīja šīs lietas:
I came near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the truth concerning all this. “So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.
17 Tie četri lielie zvēri ir četri ķēniņi, kas celsies virs zemes.
‘These great animals, which are four, are four kings, who will arise out of the earth.
18 Bet tā Visuaugstākā svētie iedabūs to valstību, un to turēs mūžīgi un mūžu mūžam.
But the saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever.’
19 Pēc tam es gribēju zināt skaidru patiesību par to ceturto zvēru, kas bija citāds nekā visi tie citi, ļoti briesmīgs, kam bija dzelzs zobi un vara nagi, kas rija un satrieca un to, kas atlika, samina ar savām kājām, -
“Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth animal, which was different from all of them, exceedingly terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of bronze; which devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet;
20 Un par viņa desmit ragiem uz viņa galvas, un par to vienu, kas cēlās, priekš kā trīs bija izkrituši, proti par to ragu, kam acis bija un mute, kas lielas lietas runāja, un kas bija lielāks, nekā tie citi.
and concerning the ten horns that were on its head and the other horn which came up, and before which three fell, even that horn that had eyes and a mouth that spoke arrogantly, whose look was more stout than its fellows.
21 Es redzēju šo ragu karojam pret tiem svētiem un arī tos pārvaram,
I saw, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them,
22 Tiekams tas laiku Vecais nāca un tā Visuaugstākā svētiem nesa tiesu, un tas nospriestais laiks nāca, kur tiem svētiem bija iedabūt to valstību.
until the Ancient of Days came, and judgement was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
23 Viņš sacīja tā: tas ceturtais zvērs būs tā ceturtā valsts virs zemes; tā būs citāda nekā visas citas valstis, un tā aprīs visu pasauli un to samīs un satrieks.
“So he said, ‘The fourth animal will be a fourth kingdom on earth, which will be different from all the kingdoms, and will devour the whole earth, and will tread it down and break it in pieces.
24 Un tie desmit ragi nozīmē, ka no tās valsts celsies desmit ķēniņi, un cits pēc tiem celsies, un tas būs jo varens nekā tie pirmaji un pazemos trīs ķēniņus.
As for the ten horns, ten kings will arise out of this kingdom. Another will arise after them; and he will be different from the former, and he will put down three kings.
25 Un tas runās vārdus pret to Visuaugstāko un postīs tā Visuaugstākā svētos un apņemsies pārgrozīt svētku laikus un bauslību, un tie viņam taps rokā doti vienu laiku un divus laikus un puslaiku.
He will speak words against the Most High, and will wear out the saints of the Most High. He will plan to change the times and the law; and they will be given into his hand until a time and times and half a time.
26 Pēc tam tiesa taps turēta, un viņam vara atņemta, ka tas pagalam top izdeldēts un iznīcināts.
“‘But the judgement will be set, and they will take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it to the end.
27 Bet tā valstība un valdība un augstība pār visām valstīm apakš visām debesīm taps dota tā Visuaugstākā svētiem ļaudīm; tā valstība būs mūžīga valstība, un visi varenie Viņam kalpos un Viņam paklausīs.
The kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole sky, will be given to the people of the saints of the Most High. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions will serve and obey him.’
28 Tas bija to vārdu gals. Bet es, Daniēls, savās domās tapu iztrūcināts, un mans ģīmis nobāla, un es tos vārdus paturēju savā sirdī
“Here is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts troubled me greatly, and my face was changed in me; but I kept the matter in my heart.”
