Daniela 11
1 Fa tamin’ ny taona voalohany nanjakan’ i Dariosa Mediana dia nitsangana hampahery sy hanatanjaka azy aho.
“As for me, in the first year of Darius the Mede, I stood up to confirm and strengthen him.
2 Ary ankehitriny izay tenany tokoa dia haharihariko aminao. Indro, mbola hisy mpanjaka telo koa hitsangana any Persia; ary ny fahefatra hanan-karena be mihoatra noho izy rehetra; koa rehefa mahery izy noho ny hareny, dia hotairiny avokoa ny olona rehetra hamely ny fanjakan’ i Grisia.
“Now I will show you the truth. Behold, three more kings will stand up in Persia. The fourth will be far richer than all of them. When he has grown strong through his riches, he will stir up all against the realm of Greece.
3 Ary hisy mpanjaka mahery hitsangana, izay hanapaka amin’ ny fanapahana lehibe sady hanao araka izay sitrapony.
A mighty king will stand up, who will rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.
4 Ary rehefa mitsangana izy, dia horavana ny fanjakany ka hozaraina ho amin’ ny rivotra efatry ny lanitra; fa tsy ho an’ ny taranany, na araka ny fanapahany izay nanapahany, fa hongotana ny fanjakany ka ho an’ ny hafa, fa tsy ho an’ ireo.
When he stands up, his kingdom will be broken and will be divided towards the four winds of the sky, but not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion with which he ruled; for his kingdom will be plucked up, even for others besides these.
5 Ary hahery ny mpanjakan’ ny atsimo; nefa ny anankiray amin’ ny andriandahiny dia hahery noho izy aza ka hanapaka; ary ho fanapahana lehibe ny fanapahany.
“The king of the south will be strong. One of his princes will become stronger than him, and have dominion. His dominion will be a great dominion.
6 Ary rehefa afaka taona vitsivitsy, dia hikambana izy roa lahy ireo; ary ho avy ny zanakavavin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny atsimo hankany amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny avaratra hahatsara ny fihavanana; nefa tsy hahatana ny herin-tsandry izy, ary tsy hahajanona ilay mpanjaka na ny sandriny, fa hatolotra razazavavy sy ireo nitondra azy sy rainy niteraka azy mbamin’ izay nampahery azy tamin’ izany andro izany.
At the end of years they will join themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make an agreement, but she will not retain the strength of her arm. He will also not stand, nor will his arm; but she will be given up, with those who brought her, and he who became the father of her, and he who strengthened her in those times.
7 Fa hisy solofony anankiray avy amin’ ny fakany hitsangana handimby azy, ka hihavian’ izay ny miaramila, ary hidirany ny fiarovana mafin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny avaratra, ka hasiany ireo, dia hahery izy.
“But out of a shoot from her roots one will stand up in his place, who will come to the army and will enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and will deal against them and will prevail.
8 Ary ny andriamaniny koa mbamin’ ny sarin-javatra an-idina sy ny fanaka tsara ananany, na ny volafotsy na ny volamena, dia hobaboiny avokoa; ary hijanona elaela tsy hamely ny mpanjakan’ ny avaratra izy.
He will also carry their gods with their molten images, and with their goodly vessels of silver and of gold, captive into Egypt. He will refrain some years from the king of the north.
9 Ary ho tonga amin’ ny fanjakan’ ny mpanjakan’ ny atsimo izy, nefa hody any amin’ ny taniny ihany.
He will come into the realm of the king of the south, but he will return into his own land.
10 Fa hanomana tafika ny zanany ka hanangona miaramila maro be; dia ho avy tokoa ireo ka hanerana toy ny safotra, rehefa afaka izany, dia hiverina izy, ary hanihiny ihany na dia ny fiarovana mafiny aza.
His sons will wage war, and will assemble a multitude of great forces which will come on, and overflow, and pass through. They will return and wage war, even to his fortress.
11 Ary dia hisafoaka ny mpanjakan’ ny atsimo, ka hivoaka hiady aminy izy, dia amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny avaratra, ary izy hanangona maro be; ary ny maro be dia hatolotra ho eo an-tànany.
“The king of the south will be moved with anger and will come out and fight with him, even with the king of the north. He will send out a great multitude, and the multitude will be given into his hand.
12 Ary raha miainga ireo maro be ireo, dia hiavonavona ny fony; ary haharipaka alinalina izy, nefa tsy hahery.
The multitude will be carried off, and his heart will be exalted. He will cast down tens of thousands, but he won’t prevail.
13 Fa hiverina ny mpanjakan’ ny avaratra ka hanangona olona maro be mihoatra noho ny teo; ary rehefa afaka ny fe-taona, dia ho avy tokoa izy ka hitondra miaramila maro sy fitaovana betsaka.
The king of the north will return, and will send out a multitude greater than the former. He will come on at the end of the times, even of years, with a great army and with abundant supplies.
14 Ary amin’ izany andro izany dia maro no hitsangana hamely ny mpanjakan’ ny atsimo; ary ireo loza indrindra amin’ ny firenenao dia hanandra-tena hahatò ny fahitana, nefa ho lavo izy.
“In those times many will stand up against the king of the south. Also the children of the violent amongst your people will lift themselves up to establish the vision, but they will fall.
15 Ka dia ho avy ny mpanjakan’ ny avaratra hanandratra tovon-tany hanafaka ny tanàna mimanda; ary na ny sandrin’ ny atsimo na ny olom-pidiny dia tsy hahomby, ary tsy hisy hery hahombiazany.
So the king of the north will come and cast up a mound, and take a well-fortified city. The forces of the south won’t stand, neither will his select troops, neither will there be any strength to stand.
16 Fa izay avy hamely azy dia hanao araka Izay sitrapony, ka tsy hisy hahajanona eo anatrehany; ary izy hijanona ao amin’ ny tany mahafinaritra, ary hisy fandringanana eny an-tànany.
But he who comes against him will do according to his own will, and no one will stand before him. He will stand in the glorious land, and destruction will be in his hand.
17 Dia hivonona tsara handeha amin’ ny herin’ ny fanjakany rehetra izy ka hanao izay hahatsara ny fihavanana; ary homeny ny zanakavavin’ ny vehivavy izy ka hahatonga loza aminy; ary tsy hahalavorary razazavavy, na hahasoa azy akory.
He will set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and with him equitable conditions. He will perform them. He will give him the daughter of women, to destroy the kingdom, but she will not stand, and won’t be for him.
18 Ary hitodika mankany amin’ ny nosy izy ka hahalasa be; ary hisy mpanapaka hampitsahatra ny latsa ataony, sady hatsingeriny aminy ny latsa ataony.
After this he will turn his face to the islands, and will take many, but a prince will cause the reproach offered by him to cease. Yes, moreover, he will cause his reproach to turn on him.
19 Dia hitodika hankany, amin’ ny fiarovana mafy any amin’ ny taniny izy; kanjo ho tafintohina sy ho lavo izy ka tsy ho hita.
Then he will turn his face towards the fortresses of his own land; but he will stumble and fall, and won’t be found.
20 Ary hitsangana handimby azy indray ny anankiray izay hampandeha mpampiasa ho any amin’ izay tsara indrindra amin’ ny fanjakany; fa rehefa afaka andro vitsy, dia ho faty io, nefa tsy amin’ ny fahatezerana, na amin’ ny ady.
“Then one who will cause a tax collector to pass through the kingdom to maintain its glory will stand up in his place; but within few days he shall be destroyed, not in anger, and not in battle.
21 Ary hisy olona famingavinga hitsangana handimby io indray, izay tsy homena ny voninahitry ny fanjakana; fa hiditra tsy ampoizina izy ka hahazo ny fanjakana amin’ ny fahafetsena,
“In his place a contemptible person will stand up, to whom they had not given the honour of the kingdom; but he will come in time of security, and will obtain the kingdom by flatteries.
22 ary ireo miaramila toy ny safotra no hindaosina hiala eo anatrehany sady ho resiny mbamin’ ny andriana vita fanekena aminy koa.
The overwhelming forces will be overwhelmed from before him, and will be broken. Yes, also the prince of the covenant.
23 Eny, rehefa mifanaiky aminy io, dia hanao fitaka; fa hiakatra izy ka hahery, na dia vitsy aza ny olona entiny.
After the treaty made with him he will work deceitfully; for he will come up and will become strong with few people.
24 Hiditra tsy ampoizina amin’ ny fari-tany mahavokatra indrindra izy ka hanao izay tsy nataon’ ny rainy na ny razany; hahahany eny amin’ ireny ny sambotra sy ny babo ary ny harena; ary hamoron-tsaina izy ka hamely ny fiarovana mandra-pahalanin’ ny fotoana.
In time of security he will come even on the fattest places of the province. He will do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers. He will scatter amongst them prey, plunder, and wealth. Yes, he will devise his plans against the strongholds, but only for a time.
25 Ary hanaitra ny heriny sy ny fony izy hamely ny mpanjakan’ ny atsimo amin’ ny miaramila maro; ary ny mpanjakan’ ny atsimo kosa hanafika mitondra miaramila maro sady mahery indrindra; nefa tsy hahajanona izy, satria hisy hamoron-tsaina hamely azy.
“He will stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south will wage war in battle with an exceedingly great and mighty army, but he won’t stand; for they will devise plans against him.
26 Eny, izay homana ny hanina avy aminy ihany no hahalavo azy, ary ny miaramilany hanerana toy ny safotra, sady maro ny faty hiampatrampatra.
Yes, those who eat of his delicacies will destroy him, and his army will be swept away. Many will fall down slain.
27 Ary ny fon’ ireo mpanjaka roa ireo dia samy ta-hanao ratsy, ary eo an-databatra iray no hiresahany lainga; nefa tsy hambinina izany; fa ny farany dia ho amin’ ny fotoana ihany.
As for both these kings, their hearts will be to do evil, and they will speak lies at one table; but it won’t prosper, for the end will still be at the appointed time.
28 Ary hiverina ho any amin’ ny taniny mitondra harena be izy; koa ny fony dia hanohitra ny fanekena masìna; ary hahefa sy hiverina ho any amin’ ny taniny izy
Then he will return into his land with great wealth. His heart will be against the holy covenant. He will take action, and return to his own land.
29 Amin’ ny fotoana dia ho lasa mianatsimo indray izy; nefa ny farany tsy ho toy ny voalohany;
“He will return at the appointed time and come into the south; but it won’t be in the latter time as it was in the former.
30 fa ny sambon’ i Kitima ho avy namely azy, ka dia ho kivy izy ka hiverina ary hisafoaka amin’ ny fanekena masìna ka hamely; eny, hiverina izy ka hisaina ny amin’ ireo efa mahafoy ny fanekena masìna.
For ships of Kittim will come against him. Therefore he will be grieved, and will return, and have indignation against the holy covenant, and will take action. He will even return, and have regard to those who forsake the holy covenant.
31 Ary hisy miaramila hitsangana noho ny teniny ka handoto ny fitoerana masìna, dia ny fiarovana mafy, ary hampitsahatra ny fanatitra isan’ andro sady hampiditra ny fahavetavetana mahatonga fandravana.
“Forces from him will profane the sanctuary, even the fortress, and will take away the continual burnt offering. Then they will set up the abomination that makes desolate.
32 Ary izay mivadika ny fanekena dia hambosiny amin’ ny fandroboana; fa ny dona izay mahalala an’ Andriamaniny kosa dia hifikitra amin’ izany ka hankatò azy.
He will corrupt those who do wickedly against the covenant by flatteries; but the people who know their God will be strong and take action.
33 Ary izay hendry ao amin’ ny olona dia hampianatra ny maro; nefa ho lavon’ ny sabatra sy ny lelafo sy ny famaboana ary ny fandrobana elaela ihany izy.
“Those who are wise amongst the people will instruct many; yet they will fall by the sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder, many days.
34 Ary rehefa lavo izy, dia hahazo famonjena kely; ary maro no hikambana aminy amin’ ny fihatsaram-belatsihy.
Now when they fall, they will be helped with a little help; but many will join themselves to them with flatteries.
35 Ary hisy ho lavo koa ny manan-tsaina, mba hizahan-toetra sy hanadiovana ary hamotsiana azy ambara-pahatongan’ ny andro farany, fa mbola ho amin’ ny fotoana ihany izany.
Some of those who are wise will fall—to refine them, and to purify, and to make them white, even to the time of the end, because it is yet for the time appointed.
36 Ary ny mpanjaka hanao araka izay sitrapony; ary hisandratra sy hanandra-tena ho ambonin’ ny andriamanitra rehetra izy ka hiteny zavatra mahagaga ny amin’ Andriamanitry ny andriamanitra, ary hambinina ihany izy mandra-pahatanteraky ny fahatezerana; fa izay efa voatendry no tsy maintsy hatao.
“The king will do according to his will. He will exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, and will speak marvellous things against the God of gods. He will prosper until the indignation is accomplished, for that which is determined will be done.
37 Ary tsy hahoany akory ny andriamanitry ny razany, na ny fitiavan’ ny vehivavy; eny, tsy hahoany akory izay andriamanitra, fa hanandra-tena noho izy rehetra izy.
He won’t regard the gods of his fathers, or the desire of women, or regard any god; for he will magnify himself above all.
38 Fa ny andriamanitry ny fiarovana mafy no hankalazainy hisolo izany; ary volamena sy volafotsy sy vato soa ary zavatra mahafinaritra no ho entiny mankalaza ny andriamanitra izay tsy fantatry ny razany.
But in their place, he will honour the god of fortresses. He will honour a god whom his fathers didn’t know with gold, silver, and with precious stones and pleasant things.
39 Dia homban’ ny andriamani-kafa izy ka hamely ny batery mafy indrindra, ary izay manaiky azy dia homeny voninahitra be sady hataony mpanapaka ny maro, ary hozarainy ho azy ny tany ho valim-pitia.
He will deal with the strongest fortresses by the help of a foreign god. He will increase with glory whoever acknowledges him. He will cause them to rule over many, and will divide the land for a price.
40 Ary amin’ ny faran’ ny andro dia hanoto azy ny mpanjakan’ ny atsimo; ary ny mpanjakan’ ny avaratra koa ho avy hamely azy toy ny tafio-drivotra ka hitondra kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly ary sambo maro; ary hiditra amin’ ny tany izy ka hanerana toy ny safotra.
“At the time of the end the king of the south will contend with him; and the king of the north will come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, with horsemen, and with many ships. He will enter into the countries, and will overflow and pass through.
41 Hiditra ao amin’ ny tany mahafinaritra koa izy, ary maro no ho ripaka; fa izao kosa no ho afa-mandositra ny tànany: Edoma sy Moaba ary ireo lohan’ ny taranak’ i Amona.
He will enter also into the glorious land, and many countries will be overthrown; but these will be delivered out of his hand: Edom, Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.
42 Haninjitra ny tànany amin’ ny tany sasany koa izy; ary ny tany Egypta tsy ho afa-mandositra.
He will also stretch out his hand on the countries. The land of Egypt won’t escape.
43 Fa hahalasa ny rakitra volamena sy volafotsy ary ny zava-tsoan’ i Egypta rehetra izy; ary ny Libyana sy ny Etiopiana hanaraka azy.
But he will have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt. The Libyans and the Ethiopians will follow his steps.
44 Fa hisy siosion-teny avy any atsinanana sy avy any avaratra haharaiki-tahotra azy, ka dia hivoaka amin’ ny fahatezerana be izy handrava sy handringana maro.
But news out of the east and out of the north will trouble him; and he will go out with great fury to destroy and utterly to sweep away many.
45 Ary haoriny eo anelanelan’ ny ranomasina sy ny tendrombohitra masìna mahafinaritra ny trano-lainy izay lapany; nefa ho tonga ao amin’ ny hiafarany ihany izy, ka tsy hisy hamonjy azy.
He will plant the tents of his palace between the sea and the glorious holy mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.
