< Daniēla 8 >
1 Ķēniņa Belsacara trešā valdīšanas gadā man, Daniēlim, rādījās parādīšana, pēc tās, kas man papriekš bija parādījusies.
In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision appeared unto me, [even] to me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.
2 Un es skatījos tai parādīšanā, un notika, ka es skatīdamies biju Sūsanas pilī Elama valstī, un es skatījos tai parādīšanā, un es biju pie Ulaī upes.
And I saw in the vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was in the fortress of Shushan, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai.
3 Un es pacēlu savas acis un skatījos, redzi, auns stāvēja upes malā, tam bija divi ragi, un tie divi ragi bija augsti, un viens bija augstāks nekā otrs, un tas augstākais izcēlās vēlāk.
And I lifted up mine eyes and saw, and behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns; and the two horns were high; and one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
4 Es redzēju, ka tas auns ar saviem ragiem badīja pret vakariem un pret ziemeļa pusi un pret dienasvidu, un neviens zvērs pret viņu nevarēja pastāvēt, un neviens no viņa rokas neizglābās, bet viņš darīja, kas tam patika un paaugstinājās.
I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no beast could stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; and he did according to his will, and became great.
5 Un kamēr es to pārdomāju, redzi, tad āzis nāca no vakariem pār visu zemes virsu un neaizskāra zemi, un tam āzim bija skaists rags starp viņa acīm.
And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat came from the west over the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
6 Un tas nāca pie tā auna ar tiem diviem ragiem, ko es biju redzējis stāvam upes malā, un tas lauzās pret viņu ar stipru karstumu.
And he came to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran upon him in the fury of his power.
7 Un es redzēju, ka tas tuvu nāca pie tā auna un pret viņu apskaitās un badīja to aunu un salauza viņa divus ragus, un tam aunam nebija spēka, viņa priekšā pastāvēt, un viņš to nometa zeme un to samina, un neviena nebija, kas to aunu izglābtu no viņa rokas.
And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged with him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; and he cast him down to the ground, and trampled upon him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.
8 Un tas āzis ļoti paaugstinājās, bet kad tas bija palicis stiprs, tad tas lielais rags salūza, un viņa vietā četri skaisti ragi izauga pret tiem četriem debess vējiem.
And the he-goat became exceeding great; but when he was become strong, the great horn was broken; and in its stead came up four notable ones toward the four winds of the heavens.
9 Un no viena no tiem iznāca viens mazs rags, tas tapa ļoti liels pret dienasvidu un pret rītiem un pret to mīlīgo zemi.
And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which became exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beauty [of the earth].
10 Un tas tapa liels līdz debess pulkam un nometa kādus no tā pulka un no tām zvaigznēm zemē un tos samina.
And it became great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down [some] of the host and of the stars to the ground, and trampled upon them.
11 Un tas tapa liels līdz debess pulka valdniekam, un šim tapa atņemts tas dienišķais upuris, un viņa svētās vietas dzīvoklis tapa izpostīts.
(And he magnified [himself] even to the prince of the host, and from him the continual [sacrifice] was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
12 Un karapulks tika nodots līdz ar dienišķo upuri apgrēkošanās dēļ, un tas (rags) nometa patiesību pie zemes, un ko viņš darīja, tas viņam izdevās.
And a time of trial was appointed unto the continual [sacrifice] by reason of transgression.) And it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised and prospered.
13 Un es dzirdēju vienu svētu runājam, un cits svēts sacīja uz to, kas runāja: uz cik ilgu laiku tad zīmējās tā parādīšana par to dienišķo upuri un par to briesmīgo grēku, ka ir tā svētā vieta, ir tas karapulks top nodoti samīšanai?
And I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that one who spoke, How long shall be the vision of the continual [sacrifice] and of the transgression that maketh desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden down under foot?
14 Un viņš uz mani sacīja: divi tūkstoši un trīssimt dienas būs skaitāmas no vakara līdz rītam, tad tā svētā vieta atkal taps iesvētīta.
And he said unto me, Until two thousand and three hundred evenings [and] mornings: then shall the sanctuary be vindicated.
15 Un kad es, Daniēls, to parādīšanu redzēju, tad es to meklēju saprast, un redzi, tur stāvēja manā priekšā viens, no izskata kā vīrs.
And it came to pass, when I Daniel had seen the vision, I sought for the understanding of it, and behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.
16 Un es dzirdēju starp Ulaī upes (malām) cilvēka balsi, tā sauca un sacīja: Gabriel, izskaidro šim to parādīšanu.
And I heard a man's voice between [the banks of] the Ulai; and he called and said, Gabriel, make this [man] to understand the vision.
17 Un viņš nāca tuvu, kur es stāvēju; un kad viņš nāca, tad es izbijos un kritu uz savu vaigu; un viņš uz mani sacīja: ņem vērā, cilvēka bērns, jo šī parādīšana iet uz pastara laiku.
And he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was afraid, and fell on my face; and he said unto me, Understand, son of man; for the vision is for the time of the end.
18 Kad viņš nu ar mani runāja, tad es nokritu pamiris pie zemes, bet viņš mani aizskāra un mani uzcēla stāvu.
Now, as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep stupor, with my face toward the ground. And he touched me, and set me up where I had stood.
19 Un viņš sacīja: redzi, es tev daru zināmu, kas notiks dusmības gala laikā; jo tas iet uz to nolikto laika galu.
And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be at the end of the indignation: for at the set time the end shall be.
20 Tas auns ar tiem diviem ragiem, ko tu esi redzējis, tie ir Mēdiešu un Persiešu ķēniņi.
The ram that thou sawest having the two horns: they are the kings of Media and Persia.
21 Un tas sprogainais āzis ir Grieķu ķēniņš, un tas lielais rags starp viņa acīm, ir tas pirmais ķēniņš.
And the rough goat is the king of Greece; and the great horn that was between his eyes is the first king.
22 Un kad tas būs salūzis, tad četri nāks viņa vietā; četras valstis celsies no tās tautas, bet ne ar tādu spēku, kāds viņam bija.
Now that being broken, whereas four stood up in its stead, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.
23 Bet šīs valsts pastara laikā, kad tie atkāpēji augumā būs auguši, celsies nikns un izmanīgs ķēniņš.
And at the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors shall have come to the full, a king of bold countenance, and understanding riddles, shall stand up.
24 Un viņa spēks būs stiprs, bet ne caur paša spēku, un viņš brīnišķi postīs un viņam laimēsies, un viņš to padarīs. Un viņš postīs tos varenos un to svēto tautu.
And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy marvellously, and shall prosper, and shall practise, and shall destroy the mighty ones, and the people of the saints.
25 Un caur viņa gudrību viltus viņa rokā tam izdosies, un viņš savā sirdī leposies un nejauši postīs lielu pulku, un celsies pretī tam valdnieku Valdniekam, bet viņš bez rokas taps salauzts.
And through his cunning shall he cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he will magnify [himself] in his heart, and by prosperity will corrupt many; and he will stand up against the Prince of princes: but he shall be broken without hand.
26 Un tas parādījums par vakaru un rītu, par ko runāts, ir patiesīgs un tu apslēp šo parādījumu, jo vēl ir ilgs laiks līdz tam.
And the vision of the evening and the morning which hath been told is true; but close thou up the vision, for it is for many days [to come].
27 Un es, Daniēls, paliku vājš un biju kādas dienas slims. Tad es cēlos un darīju ķēniņa darbu, un iztrūcinājos par šo parādījumu, bet neviens to nemanīja.
And I Daniel fainted, and was sick [certain] days: then I rose up, and did the king's business. And I was astonished at the vision, but none understood [it].
