< Daniela 9 >

1 Tamin’ ny taona voalohany nanjakan’ i Dariosa, zanak’ i Ahasoerosy, avy amin’ ny taranaky ny Mediana, izay nampanjakaina tamin’ ny fanjakan’ ny Kaldeana,
In the first year of Darius, the son of Ahasuerus, of the race of the Medes, who became king over the realm of the Chaldaeans,
2 tamin’ ny taona voalodany nanjakany, izaho Daniela nahalala tamin’ ny boky ny isan’ ny taona nampahafantarin’ ny tenin’ i Jehovah an’ i Jeremia mpaminany, izay hahataperan’ ny fito-polo taona amin’ ny hahafoanan’ i Jerosalema.
in the first year of his reign, I Daniel attentively considered in the Books the number of the years, concerning which the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah the prophet, that Jerusalem should remain in ruins till they were accomplished, namely, seventy years.
3 Ary nampanatrehiko an’ Andriamanitra Tompo ny tavako hitady izay hivavahana sy hifonana amin’ ny fifadian-kanina ny lamba fisaonana ary ny lavenona.
And I set my face toward God, the Lord, and made prayers and supplications, with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
4 Ary nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro aho ka nitsotra hoe: Indrisy! Tompo ô, Andriamanitra lehibe sy mahatahotra, mitandrina ny fanekena sy ny famindram-po ho amin’ izay tia Azy sy mitandrina ny didiny,
And I prayed to Jehovah, my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and terrible God, who keepeth the covenant and mercy to them that love him and keep his commandments!
5 efa nanota izahay sady nanao meloka ary nanao ratsy sy niodina, eny, efa niala tamin’ ny didinao sy ny fitsipikao izahay,
We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and thy statutes.
6 ary tsy nohenoinay ny mpaminany mpanomponao, izay niteny tamin’ ny anaranao tamin’ ny mpanjakanay sy ny mpanapaka anay sy ny razanay ary ny vahoaka rehetra.
Neither have we hearkened to thy servants, the prophets, who spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 Anao ny fahamarinana, Tompo ô, fa anay kosa ny fangaihaizana, tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao, dia an’ ny Joda sy ny mponina any Jerosalema ary ny Isiraely rehetra, na ny akaiky na ny lavitra, dia any amin’ ny tany rehetra izay efa nandroahanao azy noho ny fahadisoany izay nandisoany taminao;
To thee, O Lord, belongeth righteousness, but to us confusion of face, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, to those that are near and to those that are far off through all the countries whither thou hast driven them because of their trespass which they have trespassed against thee.
8 eny, anay ny fangaihaizana, Tompo ô, dia an’ ny mpanjakanay sy ny mpanapaka anay ary ny razanay, satria efa nanota taminao izahay.
O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
9 An’ ny Tompo Andriamanitray kosa ny famindram-po sy ny famelan-keloka, satria efa niodina taminy izahay
Yet with the Lord our God is mercy and forgiveness. For we have rebelled against him,
10 ka tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray, mba handeha araka ny lalàny izay nasainy napetraky ny mpaminany mpanompony teo anoloanay.
and have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants, the prophets.
11 Eny, ny Isiraely rehetra efa nandika ny lalànao ka niala, fa tsy nihaino ny feonao, ka dia naidina taminay ny ozona sy ny fianianana izay voasoratra ao amin’ ny lalàn’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ Andriamanitra, satria efa nanota taminy izahay.
Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, and turned away, so as not to obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured out upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses, the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.
12 Ary notanterahiny ny teniny, izay nolazainy hamelezana anay sy ny mpitsaranay izay nitsara anay, ka nataony niharan-doza lehibe izahay, fa tetỳ ambanin’ ny lanitra rehetra dia tsy mbola nisy natao tahaka izay natao tany Jerosalema.
And he hath fulfilled his word which he spake against us, and against our judges who judged us, by bringing great calamity upon us; for under the whole heaven hath it not been done as hath been done to Jerusalem.
13 Araka ny voasoratra ao amin’ ny lalàn’ i Mosesy no nahatongavan’ izao loza rehetra izao taminay; nefa tsy nifona teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray izahay hialanay amin’ ny helokay sy hahafantaranay ny fahamarinanao.
As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil came upon us. For we made not our prayer to Jehovah our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and give heed to thy truth.
14 Koa izany no nitehirizan’ i Jehovah ny loza, ka nataony mihatra aminay, fa marina Jehovah Andriamanitray amin’ ny asany rehetra izay efa nataony; fa izahay no tsy nihaino ny feony.
Therefore hath Jehovah our God kept his mind upon the evil, and brought it upon us; for Jehovah our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth; for we obeyed not his voice.
15 Koa ankehitriny, Tompo Andriamanitray ô, Izay nitondra ny olonao nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta tamin’ ny tanana mahery ka nanao anarana ho Anao tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao, efa nanota izahay, efa nanao ratsy izahay.
And now, O Lord our God, that broughtest thy people forth from the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and madest thee a name such as it is at this day, we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 Tompo ô, mifona aminao aho, araka ny fahamarinanao rehetra, aoka re hionona ny fahatezeranao sy ny fahaviniranao amin’ i Jerosalema tanànanao, tendrombohitrao masìna, fa ny helokay sy ny fahotan’ ny razanay no nahatonga an’ i Jerosalema sy ny olonao ho latsa amin’ izay rehetra manodidina anay.
O Lord, according to all thy goodness, let thine anger and thy fury, I beseech thee, be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain! for because of our iniquities, and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us.
17 Fa ankehitriny, ry Andriamanitray ô, henoy ny fivavaky ny mpanomponao sy ny fifonany, ary ampamirapirato ny tavanao amin’ ny fitoeranao masìna izay efa foana, satria Tompo Hianao.
Now, therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake!
18 Andriamanitra ô, atongilano ny sofinao, ka mihainoa; ahirato ny masonao, ka jereo ny fahafoananay sy ny tanàna izay nantsoina amin’ ny anaranao; fa tsy amin’ ny fahamarinanay no andoaranay ny fifonanay eto anatrehanao, fa amin’ ny halehiben’ ny indrafonao.
O my God, incline thine ear, and hear! open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name! for we do not present our supplications before thee on account of our righteousness, but on account of thy great mercy.
19 Tompo ô, mandrenesa, Tompo ô, mamelà heloka; Tompo ô, mihainoa, ka miasà; aza ela Hianao, ry Andriamanitro ô noho ny aminao; fa ny tanànanao sy ny olonao dia nantsoina amin’ ny anaranao.
O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, hearken and do! Defer not, for thine own sake, O my God! For thy city and thy people are called by thy name.
20 Ary raha mbola niteny sy nivavaka sy niaiky ny fahotako mbamin’ ny fahotan’ ny Isiraely fireneko aho ka nandoatra ny fifonako teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro ho an’ ny tendrombohitra masin’ Andriamanitro,
And while I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin, and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before Jehovah my God, for the holy mountain of my God,
21 eny, raha mbola niteny nivavaka aho, dia, indro, ilay lehilahy Gabriela izay hitako tamin’ ny fahitana voalohany, dia nampanidinina faingana ka nanatona ahy tokony ho tamin’ ny fotoan’ ny fanatitra hariva.
yea, while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the former vision, came, weary with running, and reached me about the time of the evening oblation.
22 Ary izy nampahalala ahy sy niresaka tamiko ka nanao hoe: Ry Daniela ô, avy hampahazava saina anao aho.
And he instructed me, and talked with me, and said: Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee understanding.
23 Tamin’ ny niantombohan’ ny fivavakao dia nisy teny nivoaka, ka dia tonga hanambara aminao aho, satria malala indrindra ianao; koa diniho ny teny, ary aoka ho fantatrao ny fahitana.
At the beginning of thy supplication a word went forth, and I am come to show it thee; for thou art greatly beloved; therefore give heed to the word, and consider the vision.
24 Fito-polo herinandro no voatendry ho an’ ny firenenao sy ny tanànanao masìna, hahatapaka ny fahadisoana sy hanampina ny fahotana, ary hanao fanavotana noho ny heloka sy hampiditra fahamarinana mandrakizay, ary hanisy tombo-kase ny fahitana sy ny faminaniana sy hanosotra izay masìna indrindra.
Seventy weeks are appointed for thy people, and for thy holy city, to complete the iniquity, and to fill up the measure of the sins, and to expiate the guilt, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal vision and prophet, and to anoint a holy of holies.
25 Koa aoka ho fantatrao sy ho azonao fa hatramin’ ny hivoahan’ ny didy hanavaozana sy hanamboarana an’ i Jerosalema ka hatramin’ i Mesia Andriana dia ho fito herinandro sy roa amby enim-polo herinandro; hamboarina indray ny lalana sy ny hady, dia amin’ izay andro mampahory.
Know, therefore, and understand! From the going forth of the word that Jerusalem should be restored and built till an anointed one, a prince, are seven weeks; and during sixty-two weeks it shall be restored and built with streets and moats, yet in troublous times.
26 Ary rehefa afaka ny roa amby enim-polo herinandro, dia hovonoina ny Mesia ka tsy hanana; ary ny vahoaky ny mpanjaka izay ho avy dia handrava ny tanana sy ny fitoerana masìna; ary ny farany dia hisy safotra, ary hatramin’ ny farany dia hisy ady sy fandravana voatendry.
And after the sixty-two weeks shall an anointed one be cut off, and there shall not be to him [[a successor]]; and the city and the sanctuary shall be destroyed by the people of a prince that shall come, whose end will be as in a flood; and to the end shall be war, decreed desolations.
27 Ary hanorina fanekena ho herinandro amin’ ny maro izy ary hampitsahatra ny fanatitra alatsa-drà sy ny fanatitra hafa hatramin’ ny antsasaky ny herinandro, ary amin’ ny elatry ny fahavetavetana no nihavian’ ny mpandrava, hatramin’ ny fahafonganana voatendry, izay haidina amin’ ny mpandrava.
And he will establish a covenant with many for one week, and during half a week he will cause sacrifice and oblation to cease, and upon the wing of abominations shall come the destroyer, until decreed destruction be poured out on the destroyer.
