Daniela 10
1 Ie tan-taom-paha-telo’ i Kòrese mpanjaka’ i Parase, le nibentareñe amy Daniele natao Beltesatsare ty tsara; to i tsaray, toe hotakotake jabajaba; nioni’e i tsaray vaho nahafohiñe i aroñaroñey.
In the third year of Cyrus, king of Persia, was a revelation made to Daniel, who was also called Belteshazzar; and the revelation is true, and relateth to long warfare. And he gave heed to the revelation, and had understanding of the vision.
2 Ie tañ’ andro izay, nandala telo hereñandro garagadìñe, izaho Daniele.
In those days, I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.
3 Tsy nihinan-kàne mafiry naho tsy nizilik’ am-bavako ao ty hena ndra divay; vaho le lia’e tsy nihoso-batañe am-para’ te niheneke i hereñandro telo do’ey.
I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine into my mouth, till three whole weeks were ended.
4 Aa ie amy andro faha-roa-polo-efats’ ambi’ i volam-baloha’ey, le tañolo’ ty oñe jabajaba atao Kidekele iraho;
And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river Hiddekel,
5 ie naandrako o masokoo le nitreako te ingo t’indaty misikin-deny naho miè-bolamena ki’e boak’e Ofaze;
I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, a certain man, clothed in linen garments, and his loins girded with gold of Uphaz.
6 nanahake ty vatosoa’ i Tarsise ty sandri’e, naho hoe helatse ty lahara’e, naho hoe failo o fihaino’eo, naho hoe volon-torisìke solanto’e o fità’eo naho o fandia’eo, vaho nanahake ty firedoña’ i màroy ty fiarañanaña’e.
His body was like chrysolite, and his face had the appearance of lightning, and his eyes were as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet like the appearance of polished brass, and the sound of his words was as the shout of a multitude.
7 Izaho Daniele avao ty nahatrea i aroñaroñey, le tsy nahaisake i aroñaroñey ondaty nindre amakoo, fa fangebahebahañe ty nivotrahañe naho nitriban-day vaho nietak’ añe.
And I Daniel alone saw the vision and the men who were with me saw not the vision; but a great terror fell upon them, and they fled to hide themselves.
8 Le nidoñe eo avao iraho nañente i aroñaroñe ra’elahiy, vaho ni-po-kaozarañe, nikomavo ty vintako, le tsy nahatan-kafatrarañe.
Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision; and there remained no strength in me, and my color was changed upon me into a deadly paleness, and I retained no strength.
9 Tsinanoko ty fiarañanaña’ o tsara’eo, le izaho nitsanoñe ty fiarañanaña’ o tsara’eo ro nampilañahen-droro an-tareheko, ty pandako nitolik’ an-tane.
And I heard the sound of his words; and as I heard the sound of his words, I fell senseless upon my face, and my face toward the ground.
10 Nañedre ahy amy zao ty fitàñe nampihohok’ ahy añ’ongotse naho an-dela-tañañe.
And behold, a hand touched me, and lifted me upon my knees and the palms of my hands.
11 Le hoe re tamako, O Daniele, ondaty toe kokoañeo, tsendreño ty tsara hitaroñako, le mitrahàña naho mijohaña; fa nampihitrifeñe ama’o iraho. Ie nisaontsie’e i tsaray le nijagarìdiñe an-titititike avao iraho.
And he said to me, Daniel, much-beloved man, give heed to the words which I speak to thee, and stand upright! for to thee am I now sent. And when he said this to me, I stood up trembling.
12 Le hoe re amako, Ko hemban-drehe, Daniele, fa boak’ amy andro valoha’ i nanolora’o arofo hahafohiñe, naho nampisotrie’o añ’ atrefan’ Añahare ty fiai’oiy, le fa jinanjiñe o enta’oo, vaho o saontsi’oo ty nivotrahako etoañe;
Then said he to me, Fear not, Daniel! for from the first day that thou didst set thy mind to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come on account of thy words.
13 fe nanebañe ahy andro roapolo-raik’ amby ty roandria mpifehe’ i Parase; ie amy zay niheo amako mb’eo t’i Mikaele, raik’ amo mpifehe amboneo, nañolotse ahy tsy ho paiañe amo mpanjaka’ i Paraseo ka.
But the prince of the kingdom of Persia stood up against me one and twenty days; but lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I was left there victorious with the kings of Persia.
14 Pok’ etoan-draho hampahafohiñe azo ty hifetsak’ am’ ondati’oo amo andro honka’eo, fe mbe andro maro añe i niaroñaroñañey.
Now I am come to teach thee what shall befall thy people in the latter days; for the vision yet relates to distant days.
15 Aa ie nisaontsy i tsaray amako, le nitolik’ mb’an-tane iraho vaho nijomohõñe.
And when he had spoken these words to me, I set my face toward the ground, and was dumb.
16 Le ingo te nitsapa o soñikoo ty hambam-bintañ’ ami’ty ana’ondaty; le nanoka-bava, nanao ty hoe amy nijohañe aoloko eoy: Ry Talèko, mampioremeñe ahy i aroñaroñey vaho tsy mahatàn-kafatrarañe.
And behold, one having the appearance of the sons of men touched my lips; then I opened my mouth and spake, and said to him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my pain came upon me, and I have no strength left.
17 Fa aia ty mpitoron-Talèko t’ie hahafivolañe amy Talè? Aa izaho henane zay, le tsy aman-kery vaho tsy nahakofòke.
And how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? And now there remaineth no strength in me, neither is breath left in me.
18 Nimb’ amako indraike indaty manahake i ana’ ondatiy, nañedre naho nañohò ahy.
Then one having the appearance of a man again touched me and strengthened me,
19 Hoe re, Ko hemban-drehe, ry toe kokoañeo, fañaintsiñe ama’o, mifalea, naho mijangaña. Ie nisaontsy amako le nihafatratse vaho nanoeko ty hoe: Ehe isaontsio ry Talèko fa nampahozare’o.
and said, Fear not, much-beloved man! peace be to thee! be strong, yea, be strong! And while he was speaking with me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.
20 Aa le hoe re, Fohi’o hao ty nivotrahako ama’o etoy? Amy t’ie tsy mete tsy mibalike hialy amy roandria’ i Parasey; le ie engako, ho avy ka ty roandria’ Iavane.
Then he said, Knowest thou wherefore I have come to thee? And now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia, and I will go forth, and behold, the prince of Greece will come.
21 Fe ho razañeko ama’o i misokitse amy boken-katòy; izaho tsy amam-pañolotse amy raha rezay, naho tsy i Mikaele roandria’oy avao.
But I will show thee what is written in the book of truth. No one putteth forth his strength with me against them but Michael, your prince.
