Daniela 11

1 Aa ty amako, ie tan-taom-baloha’ i Dariavese nte-Madày le nitroatse hañosike naho hampaozatse aze.

I, therefore, in the first year of Darius the Mede, was at my station to strengthen and embolden him;

2 Ie henane zao le haboako ama’o ty hatò. Inay, fa ho mpanjaka telo ty e Parase ao, fa hanontoñe vara bey te amy telo rey iaby ty fah’efatse; le i hafatrara’ey añamo vara’eo ty hampitrobotroboe’e i màroy haname Iavane.

and, now, the truth, I will tell thee: —Lo! there are, yet three kings, to arise—belonging to Persia, and, the fourth, will amass greater riches than they all, and, when he hath strengthened himself in his riches, the whole, will stir up, the kingdom of Greece.

3 Hiongak’ amy zao ty mpanjaka mahimbañe, le ho felehe’e ty fifeheañe jabajaba vaho hanoe’e ze satri’e.

And so a hero king, will arise, —and wield great authority, and do according to his own pleasure;

4 Fa ie mifehe, le ho folaheñe i fifehea’ey vaho ho zaraeñe amo tiok’efa’ i likerañeio, fe tsy amo tarira’eo, ndra amy fifeheañe nifelehe’ey; fa hombotañe ho amo ila’e tsy a’ iareoo i fifehea’ey.

but, when he hath arisen, his kingdom, shall be broken in pieces, and be divided, toward the four winds of the heavens, —but not to his own posterity, nor according to his own authority which he wielded, for his kingdom, shall be uprooted, even for others besides these.

5 Le i mpanjaka’ i atimoiy, ty raik’ amo mpifele’eo ro hampifatra-batañe naho handikoatse aze vaho hihaozatse; ho bey henehene i fifehea’ey.

But a king of the south, will become strong, even from among his rulers, —and will prevail against him, and have authority, a great authority, shall his authority be.

6 Fa ie migadoñe i sa zay, le hifampipiteke iereo; fa homb’ amy mpanjaka’ i avaratsey ty anak’ ampela’ i atimoy hifañina, fe tsy ho tana’e ty hafatraram-pità’e; tsy hahafitroatse ka i lahilahiy ndra i fità’ey, fa haitoañe rekets’ o nanese azeo naho i nisamak’ azey, vaho o mpañimb’ aze amy andro zaio.

And, at the end of years, they will league together, yea, the daughter of the king of the south, will go in unto the king of the north, to make peace, but she shall not retain strength of arm, neither shall he stand, nor his arm, but she shall be delivered up—she herself, and they who brought her in, and he who begat her, and he that strengthened her in the times.

7 Fe boak’ ami’ty singam-baha’e ty hitroara’ ty raik’ amy fiambesa’ey naho hivotrak’ amy mpirai-lian-dahin­defoñey naho himoak’ an-kijoly fatra’ i mpanjaka avaratsey naho hanoe’e am’ iereo ze satri’e, vaho hahagioke;

But one will stand up from the sprout of her roots, [in] his stead, —and he will enter the army, and enter into a fortress of the king of the north, and deal with them and shew himself strong;

8 le fonga ho tavane’e naho hendese’e am-pandrohizañe mb’e Mitsraime añe o ndrahare’ iareoo, rekets’ o roandria’eo, naho o fanake volafoty naho volamena sa­rotseo, ie hahatam-bàtañe taoñe maromaro amy mpanjaka’ i avaratseiy.

yea, even their gods, with their molten images, with their delightful vessels of silver and gold, with a host of captives, will he bring into Egypt, —and, he, will stand more, years, than the king of the north;

9 Izay ty himoaha’ i mpanjaka’ i atimoy i fifeheañey vaho himpoly an-tane’e añe.

so will the king of the south, enter into the kingdom, and then return unto his own soil.

10 Fe hitrobo-vatañe o ana’eo naho hatonto’ iareo ty hatozantozan-dian-dahindefoñe naho hiherereake mb’eo, le hisorotombake, naho hiranga, naho hitolike vaho haname i kijoli’e fatra­tsey an-kaviñerañe.

But, his sons, will rouse themselves to war, and gather together a multitude of large armies, but he will come on and on, and overflow and pass through, —and will return and wage war, up to his fortress.

11 Aa le hiforoforo amy zao i mpanjaka’ i atimoy naho haname aze vaho hialy ama’e, amy mpanjaka’ i avaratseiy, aa ndra t’ie valobohòke ro havotra’e amy montoñey, toe hene hatolotse am-pità’e i valobohòkey.

Then will the king of the south, be enraged, and go forth and fight with him, with the king of the north, —and will raise a great multitude, but the multitude, will be delivered, into his hand.

12 Aa ie fa nasese’e i valobohòkey, le hirengevoke ty arofo’e, vaho añ’ ale añ’ ale ty hafetsa’e ambane, fe tsy hampanjofak’ aze.

And, when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart, will be uplifted, —and he will cause tens of thousands to fall, but will not conquer.

13 Ie añe, le hatonto’ i mpanjaka avara­tsey ty lahi-ale mandikoatse i teoy, le ie am-pigadoñan-tsà naho taoñe ro hañoridañe mb’eo reketse lian-dahialen-defoñe mitozantozañe naho haraotse tsifotofoto.

Then will the king of the north again raise a multitude, greater than the first, —and, at the end of the times—some years, he will come on and on with a great army, and with great substance.

14 Fe maro ty hitroatse haname i mpanjaka’ i atimoy amy sa zay; o ana-piaroteñe am’ondati’oo ty hitroatse hañenefa’ iareo i aroñaroñey, fe hihotrake.

And, in those times, many, will rise against the king of the south, —and, the sons of the oppressors of thy people, will exalt themselves to confirm the vision, but will be overthrown.

15 Aa le homb’eo ty mpanjaka’ i avaratsey hamotry tamboho naho hitavañe ty rova maòzatse, le tsy hahatañ’ aze o fità’atimoo, ndra i lia-raike jinobo’ey, ie ho po-haozarañe tsy hahafitroatse.

Then will come in the king of the north, and cast up a rampart, and capture a city of strongholds, —and, the arms of the south, will not rise, nor the people of his chosen ones, and there shall be no strength to rise.

16 Hanao ze satri’e i haname azey, naho tsy eo ty hahafiatrek’ ama’e, ie hijohañe amy tane engeñey, vaho fanjamanañe ty ho am-pità’e.

So shall he that cometh against him do according to his own pleasure, and, none, shall stand before him, —therefore will he take his stand in the beautiful land, and it will languish and be exhausted in his hand.

17 Hampiatrefe’e laharañe homba’e mb’eo reketse ze hene haozaram-pifehea’e naho hifañina’e: hatolo’e aze ty anak’ ampelan-drakemba, hampimomohañe aze; fe tsy hijohañe ho aze i ampelay vaho tsy ho tohaña’e.

Then will he set his face to enter, with the might of all his kingdom, and, equitable terms with him, will make, —and, a daughter of women, will he give him to corrupt her, but she will not remain, nor, his, shall she become.

18 Aa le hampitolihe’e mb’amo tokonoseo ty lahara’e, le ho tavane’e ty maro, fe hampijihetse ty fañinjea’e ty roandriañe vaho hafote’e ama’e i fañinjea’ey.

Then will he turn his face to the Coastlands, and will capture many, —but a commander, will bring to an end, his reproach against himself, that, his reproach, return not unto him.

19 Hampitolihe’e laharañe mb’ amo kijoly an-tane’eo, fe hitsikapy re toe hikoromake vaho tsy ho tendreke ka.

Therefore will he turn his face towards the fortresses of his land, —but he shall stagger and fall, and shall not be found.

20 Hitroatse handimbe aze ty hampiranga mpamori-haba ami’ty enge’ i fifeheañey; f’ie modo ty andro tsy ampe le ho folake tsy aman-kaboseke tsy aman-aly.

Then will rise up in his stead, one causing an exactor to pass through the ornament of the kingdom, —but, in a few days, shall he be broken in pieces, not with anger, nor in battle.

21 Handimbe aze ty lo-tse­reke; tsy hatolotse ama’e ty asi’ i fifeheañey; f’ie hivotrake eo am-pilongoañe le ho azo’e an-kabeake i fifeheañey.

Then will rise up in his stead, one despised, and they will not lay upon him the dignity of the kingdom, —but he will come in unexpectedly, and strengthen the kingdom by flatteries;

22 Lahindefo tsifotofoto ty hisaok’ añatrefa’e hoe sinaon-tsorotombake, vaho ho pozaheñe; eka, ndra i ana-dona’ i fañinaiy.

and, the arms of an overflowing flood, will sweep all before him, and they shall be broken in pieces, —moreover also, the prince of a covenant;

23 Ie nifandrimboñe, te mone hitolom-pamañahiañe, vaho hitroatse naho hihaozatse am-borizàñe kedekedeke.

and, by reason of the leaguing against him, he will work deceitfully, and will come up and become strong, with a small nation.

24 Hivotrak’ amo toetse vondrak’ amy faritaneio re an-tsam-pierañerañañe; vaho hanoe’e am’ iereo ty tsy nanoen-drae’e, ndra o roaen-drae’eo; ho zarae’e am’ iereo ty tsindroke, ty kopake, naho ty vara; eka hikinia ty fikililia’e amo rova fatra­tseo fe am-para’ i àndroy avao.

Unexpectedly, even into the rich places of the province, will he enter, and will do what neither his fathers nor his father’s fathers had done, prey and spoil and substance—among them, will he scatter, —and, against strongholds, will he devise plots even until a (convenient) time.

25 Ho trobotroboe’e ty hafatrara’e naho ty hahavania’e hiatreke i mpanjaka’ i atimoy ami’ty hatozantozan-dahin-defo’e; hihàroke hihotakotake ty mpanjaka’ i atimoy an-dia-rain-dahin-defo jabajaba naho maozatse; fe tsy hahafijohañe, amy t’ie hikinià’ iareo.

Then will he stir up his strength and his heart, against the king of the south, with a great army, and, the king of the south, will wage war, with a great and exceedingly mighty army, —but will make no stand, for they will devise against him plots;

26 Eka, o mitrao-pikama ama’eo ty handrotsak’ aze, naho hisaok’ añe i lia-rain-dahin-defo’ey, vaho lako ty hitsingoritritse am-pizamanañe.

and, they who have been eating his delicacies, will break him in pieces, and, his army, will he overwhelm like a flood, —and many wounded, will fall.

27 Le ty amy mpanjaka roroey, hifamañahy avao ty arofo’ iareo, vaho hifandañitse am-pandambañañe eo, fe tsy hiraorao; amy te i andro tinendrey avao ty higadoña’e.

Now, as for the two kings, their heart, will be set on acting wickedly, and, at one table, will they speak, falsehood, —but it shall not succeed, for yet is the end for an appointed time.

28 Ie mimpoly mb’an-tane’e mb’ eo, amam-bara tsifotofoto, le te hiatreatre i fañina miavakey ty tro’e, naho hanoe’e ze satri’e, vaho himpoly an-tane’e añe.

So then he will return to his own land, with great substance, with, his heart, set upon a holy covenant; yea he will act with effect, and return to his own land.

29 Ie añ’andro tinendre le hibalike, vaho hivotrak’ atimo ao; fe tsy ho hambañe amy taoloy i henane zay.

At the appointed time, will he again enter the south, —but it shall not be like the former, nor like the latter.

30 F’ie tamè o sambo’ i Kitìo le hanahelo naho himpoly vaho hatorifi’e i fañina miavakey; aa le hanoe’e ze satri’e naho hibalike vaho hitrao-kilily amo namo­rintseñe i fañina miavakeio.

Then will come in against him the ships of Cyprus, and he will be disheartened, and again have indignation against a holy covenant, and will act with effect, —and again gain intelligence, concerning them who are forsaking a holy covenant.

31 Hanontoñe lahin-defon-dre, le ho leore’ iareo i toetse miavakey naho i rova fatratsey, vaho hapitso’ iareo i fisoroñañe boak’ àndroy, handim­beza’ iareo fiterateràñe mampangoakoake.

And, arms, from him, will arise, —and will profane the sanctuary, the fortress, and will set aside the continual [ascending-sacrifice], and place the horrid abomination that astoundeth.

32 Hanao kabeake re hampanan-kakeo o mifotetse amy fañinaio, fe hihaozatse ondaty mahafohiñe an’ Andria­nañahare’eo vaho hitoloñe.

And, them who are ready to deal lawlessly with a covenant, will he make impious by flatteries, —but, the people who know their God, will be strong and act with effect.

33 Hampahilala i màroy o mahihitse am’ondatio, fe hampikorovohem-pibara naho afo, naho fandrohizañe, vaho fikopahañe andro maro.

And, they who make the people wise, will impart understanding to the many, —yet shall they be brought low, by sword and by flame, by captivity and by prey, for some days;

34 Ie mikorovoke le holorañe fañolo­rañe kedeke, fe an-tsiriry ty hipiteha’ i màroy am’ iereo.

but, when they are brought low, they shall be helped with a little help, —and many, will join themselves unto them, by flatteries;

35 Hitsikapy ka ty ila’ o mahihitse am’ iereoo, ho tranaheñe naho lioveñe naho fotieñe ampara’ ty sa honka’e, fa mbe añe i andro tinendrey.

and, of them who make wise, some shall be brought low, to refine them, and to purify and make white, up to the time of the end, —for yet is it for an appointed time.

36 Hanao ze satri’e i mpanjakay, hitoabotse naho hisenge ambone’ ze atao ndrahare naho hilañoñe hatera­teràñe mahatan­goangoa aman’ Andria­nañaharen-drahare vaho hiraorao am-para’ te heneke i hatorifihañey, fa ho henefeñe ze tinendre.

And the king, will do according to his own pleasure, and will exalt himself, and magnify himself against every GOD, yea, against the GOD of GODS, will he speak wonderful things, —and will succeed, until exhausted is the indignation, for, what is decreed, must be done;

37 Tsy hahoa’e t’i Andria­nañaharen-droae’e, ndra ty fikokoan-ampela, ndra ty fañisohan’ añahare ia’ia; fa hitoabotoabotse ambone’ ze kila raha.

and, for the god of his fathers, will he have no regard, nor, for the delight of women, nor for any god, will he have regard, —for, against all, will he magnify himself.

38 Te mone hiasia’e ty ndraharen-toem-pàtratse, ndrahare tsy nifohin-droae’e; hiasie’e am-bolamena naho volafoty naho vato-soa vaho hareañe saro-bily.

Howbeit, to the god of the fortresses, in his place, will he give honour, —even to a god whom his fathers, knew not, will he give honour, with gold and with silver and with precious stones and with articles of delight.

39 Hi­traok’ amo mpi­aman-drahare kihàfao re hamboatse fipalirañe maozatse, le hampi­toabore’e ty enge’ iareo naho hampi­felehe’e ty maro vaho ho zarae’e i taney hahazoa’e tombo’e.

And he will prepare, for the strongholds of the fortress of the sea, the people of an alien god, whom he will acknowledge—will greatly honour, —and will give them authority over the many, and, the soil, will he apportion for a price.

40 Aa ie migadoñe i sa zay le hikapàke ama’e ty mpanjaka atimo, fe hampibobo tangololahy ama’e an-tsarete ty mpanjaka avaratse reketse soavala vaho sambo maro, hene hivotraha’e o taneo, ho sorotombahe’e ami’ty firanga’e mb’eo.

And, in the time of the end, will the king of the south, push at him, and the king of the north, will rush against him, with chariots and with horsemen, and with many ships, —and he will enter the lands, and overwhelm and pass over;

41 Homb’ amy tane rengèñey re le hihotrake ty fifeheañe maro, fe iretoañe ty hipolatitse am-pità’e: i Edome naho i Moabe vaho ty talen’ ana’ i Amone.

yea he will enter the beautiful land, and, many [lands], shall be laid low, —but, these, shall be delivered out of his hand, Edom and Moab, and the first portion of the sons of Ammon;

42 Hatorakitsi’e amo taneo ty fità’e vaho tsy hahafandrifitse ama’e ty tane Mitsraime.

yea he will thrust forth his hand against the lands, —and, the land of Egypt, shall have no deliverance;

43 Fonga ho fehè’e o vara volamena naho vola­fotio naho ze raha saro-bili’ i Mitsraime; le ho atimpahe’e o nte-Lobìo naho o nte-Kosio.

and he will have authority over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the delightful things of Egypt, —with Libyans and Ethiopians among his followers;

44 Fe hitsobore aze ty talily boak’ atiñanañe naho avaratse añe; aa le hionjomb’eo re am-poroforo mandofiry handro­tsake naho hanja­mañe ty maro.

but, tidings, will terrify him, out of the east, and out of the north, —therefore will he go forth with great fury, to destroy and to devote many;

45 Hajado’e añivo’ o riakeo naho i vohitse miavake fanjàkay o sokemitrahan-drova’eo vaho higadoñe ty fiai’e, tsy amam-pañolotse.

and will plant his palace-home between the seas, towards the beautiful holy mountain, but shall come to his end, with none to help him.
