Daniele 8
1 Na mobu ya misato ya bokonzi ya mokonzi Balitazari, ngai, Daniele, nazwaki emoniseli moko ya sika, sima na oyo nazwaki liboso.
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 Kati na emoniseli yango, nazalaki kotala mpe namimonaki lokola kati na Size, engumba batonga makasi, kati na etuka ya Elami; kati na emoniseli yango kaka, namimonaki lisusu lokola natelemi pembeni ya moluka Ulayi.
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 Natombolaki miso na ngai na likolo mpe namonaki, liboso na ngai, meme moko ya mobali etelemi pembeni ya moluka; ezalaki na maseke mibale ya milayi makasi, kasi moko kati na maseke yango, oyo ebotaki sima, elekaki mosusu na molayi.
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 Bongo, namonaki meme ya mobali ezali kobeta na ngambo ya weste, ya nor mpe na sude. Nyama moko te ekokaki kobundisa yango mpe moto moko te akokaki kokangola soki ekangi yango. Ezalaki kosala nyonso oyo yango elingi mpe ezalaki kokola.
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 Wana nazalaki kokanisa na tina na yango, ntaba moko ya mobali eyaki wuta na ngambo ya weste; ezalaki kotambola mabele mobimba na kozanga konyata yango. Ntaba yango ya mobali ezalaki na liseke moko ya monene na kati-kati ya miso na yango;
And as I was considering, behold, a male 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 eyaki kino epai ya meme ya mobali oyo namonaki etelemi pembeni ya moluka mpe ezalaki na maseke mibale; ebetaki yango makasi, na maseki te.
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 Namonaki ntaba yango kopusana pene ya meme ya mobali na kanda makasi, ebetaki meme ya mobali mpe ebukaki yango maseke nyonso mibale; meme ezalaki ata na makasi te ya kobundisa ntaba. Boye, ntaba ebwakaki meme na mabele mpe enyataki yango; mpe ezalaki na moto moko te mpo na kobikisa meme ya mobali na maboko ya ntaba wana.
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 Ntaba ya mobali ekolaki makasi; kasi tango ekomaki lisusu na nguya makasi, liseke na yango ya monene ebukanaki. Maseke minei ya minene ebotaki na esika ya liseke wana moko mpe etalaki na bangambo minei ya likolo.
Therefore the male goat became very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and in its stead came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.
9 Bongo, wuta na moko kati na maseke nyonso minei, liseke moko ya moke ebimaki. Ekolaki makasi, mpe nguya na yango ekomaki na ngambo ya sude, ya este mpe na ngambo ya Mokili oyo eleki kitoko.
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 pleasant land.
10 Ekolaki lisusu kino na mampinga ya likolo, ebwakaki na mabele ndambo ya mampinga yango mpe ndambo ya minzoto, mpe enyataki yango.
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 Emitombolaki kino kotia tembe na Mokonzi ya mampinga, elongolaki mbeka ya mokolo na mokolo na losambo mpe ebebisaki Esika na Ye ya bule elongo na miboko na yango.
Yea, 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 Likolo ya botomboki ya bato liboso ya Nzambe, mampinga ya likolo ekomaki na se ya bokonzi ya liseke elongo na mbeka ya mokolo na mokolo. Liseke yango ezalaki kolonga na makambo nyonso oyo ezalaki kosala mpe ebwakaki solo na mabele.
And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it continued, and prospered.
13 Nayokaki mosantu moko koloba, mpe mosantu mosusu kotuna ye: — Makambo oyo etalisami na emoniseli ekosala mikolo boni? Mbeka ya mokolo na mokolo ekopesama lisusu te mikolo boni? Botomboki oyo ememaka pasi ekosala mikolo boni? Mikolo boni Esika ya bule mpe mampinga ekotiama na se ya matambe?
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 Alobaki na ngai: — Ekosalema bapokwa nkoto moko na nkama moko na tuku mitano mpe batongo nkoto moko na nkama moko na tuku mitano; sima na yango nde Esika ya bule ekobulisama lisusu mpo na losambo.
And he said to me, Until two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
15 Wana ngai, Daniele, nazalaki komona emoniseli yango na makanisi mpe koluka kososola yango, namonaki lokola moto moko atelemi liboso na ngai.
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 one having the appearance of a man.
16 Nayokaki mongongo moko lokola ya moto wuta na kati-kati ya moluka Ulayi; ezalaki kobelela: — Gabrieli, limbolela moto oyo emoniseli.
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 Lokola azalaki kopusana pene ya esika oyo nazalaki, nakomaki na somo mpe nakweyaki elongi kino na mabele. Alobaki na ngai: — Mwana na moto, sosola malamu ete emoniseli oyo etali makambo ya suka ya tango.
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 Wana azalaki koloba na ngai, nakomaki na pongi moko ya makasi, mpe nakweyaki elongi kino na mabele; kasi asimbaki ngai mpe atelemisaki ngai, kaka na esika oyo nazalaki.
Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.
19 Bongo, alobaki na ngai: — Nakoyebisa yo makambo oyo ekosalema na sima na tango ya kanda ya Nzambe, pamba te emoniseli oyo etali tango oyo ekatama mpo na mikolo ya suka.
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 Maseke mibale ya meme ya mobali oyo omonaki ezali kolakisa bakonzi ya Medi mpe ya Persi.
The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.
21 Ntaba mobali ya bapwale ebele ezali mokonzi ya Grese, mpe liseke monene oyo ezali na kati-kati ya miso na yango ezali mokonzi ya liboso.
And the rough goat is the king of Greece: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.
22 Tango liseke yango ebukanaki, maseke minei ebimaki na esika na yango: ezali kolakisa ete babokonzi minei ekobima wuta na ekolo oyo, kasi nguya na yango ekokokana te.
Now that being broken, though four stood up in its place, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.
23 Na suka ya bokonzi na yango, tango batomboki bakokolisa mabe na bango kino na suka, mokonzi moko ya motema makasi mpe ya mayele mabe akobima;
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 akokoma makasi koleka, kasi na nguya na ye moko te. Akobebisa mokili na ndenge ya kokamwa mpe akolonga na makambo nyonso oyo akosala; akoboma bato ya makasi mpe basantu.
And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and continue, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25 Na mayele mabe na ye, akolonga kokosa bato ebele mpe akokoma na motema ya lofundu; akoboma bato ebele oyo bazalaki na bango na kimia mpe akotelemela Mokambi ya bakambi, kasi akobebisama na nguya ya moto te.
And through his policy also he shall cause deceit 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 Emoniseli ya bapokwa mpe ya batongo oyo epesamelaki yo ezali ya solo, kasi bomba yango malamu, pamba te etali makambo oyo ekosalema na mikolo ekoya.
And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: therefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days.
27 Ngai, Daniele, nalembaki penza nzoto mpe nabelaki mikolo ebele. Sima na yango, natelemaki mpe nazongelaki kolandela misala ya mokonzi. Emoniseli oyo nazwaki ekamwisaki ngai mpe nazalaki kososola yango te.
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.
