दानिएल 8

1 राजा बेलसजरले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गरेको तेस्रो वर्षमा, (मैले पहिला देखेको दर्शनपछि) म, दानिएलले अर्को दर्शन देखें ।

In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.

2 मैले हेरिरहँदा, दर्शनमा मैले आफूलाई एलाम प्रदेशको शूशनको किल्लामा भएको देखें । दर्शनमा म ऊलै नहरको छेउमा थिएँ ।

And I saw in the vision; now it was so, that when I saw, I was in Shushan the castle, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in the vision, and I was by the stream Ulai.

3 मैले माथि हेरें र मेरो सामु नहरको छेउमा दुईवटा सिङ भएको एउटा भेडालाई मैले देखें । एउटा सिङचाहिं अर्कोभन्दा लामो थियो, तर छोटोभन्दा लामो ढिला बढ्यो र छोटोले त्‍यसलाई जित्‍यो ।

And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the stream 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 अनि त्यो भेडाले पश्‍चिममा, त्‍यसपछि उत्तरमा, र त्यसपछि दक्षिणमा हानिरहेको मैले देखें । त्यसको सामु अरू कुनै पशु खडा हुन सकेन । तीमध्‍ये कुनैले पनि कसैलाई पनि त्यसको हातबाट बचाउन सकेन । आफूलाई जे मन लाग्‍यो, त्‍यसले त्‍यही गर्‍यो, र त्यो महान् भयो ।

I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; and no beasts could stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and magnified himself.

5 जब मैले यसको बारेमा विचार गरिरहेको थिएँ, तब पश्‍चिमबाट आउँदै गरेको एउटा बोकोलाई मैले देखें, जो जमिनलाई नै नछोए जस्‍तो गरी द्रुत गतिमा दौडेर सम्‍पूर्ण पृथ्वीको सतहमा गयो । त्यो बोकोको आँखाहरूका बिचमा एउटा ठुलो सिङ थियो ।

And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat came from the west over the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground; and the goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes.

6 दुईवटा सिङ भएको भेडाकहाँ त्यो आयो—त्यो भेडालाई नहरको किनारमा खडा भएको मैले देखेको थिएँ— र त्यो बोको उक्‍त भेडातर्फ शक्तिशाली क्रोधमा दौडियो ।

And he came to the ram that had the two horns, which I saw standing before the stream, and ran at him in the fury of his power.

7 त्यो बोकोलाई उक्‍त भेडाको नजिक आएको मैले देखें । भेडासँग त्यो धेरै रिसाएको थियो, र त्यसले भेडालाई हिर्कायो र त्यसका दुईवटै सिङलाई भाँचिदियो । त्यसको सामु खडा हुनलाई त्यो भेडो शक्तिहीन थियो । बोकोले त्यसलाई भुइँमा ढाल्‍यो र त्यसलाई कुल्चियो । त्यसको शक्तिबाट त्यो भेडालाई बचाउने त्यहाँ कोही थिएन ।

And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler 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 trampled upon him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.

8 तब त्यो बोको धेरै ठुलो भयो । तर जब त्यो शक्तिशाली भयो, त्यसको ठुलो सिङ भाँचियो, र त्यसको ठाउँमा अरू चार ठुला सिङ पलाए जसले आकाशका चारै बतासलाई देखाए ।

And the he-goat magnified himself exceedingly; and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and instead of it there came up the appearance of four horns toward the four winds of heaven.

9 तीमध्येबाट अर्को एउटा सिङ पलायो, जुन पहिला सानो थियो, तर त्यो दक्षिणमा, पूर्वमा, र सुन्दरताको देशमा धेरै विशाल भयो ।

And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beauteous land.

10 त्यो यति विशाल भयो, कि त्यो स्वर्गको सेनासँग युद्ध गर्न तयार भयो । ती सेनामध्ये कोही र केही ताराहरू पृथ्वीमा फालिए, र त्यसले तीमाथि कुल्चियो ।

And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and some of the host and of the stars it cast down to the ground, and trampled upon them.

11 त्यसले आफूलाई सेनाका कमान्‍डर जत्तिकै महान् बनायो । त्यसले उहाँबाट नियमित होमबलि खोसेर लग्यो, र उहाँको पवित्रस्थानलाई अशुद्ध पारियो ।

Yea, it magnified itself, even to the prince of the host; and from him the continual burnt-offering was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

12 विद्रोहको कारणले, त्‍यो सेनालाई बोकोको सिङकहाँ सुम्पिइनेछ, र होमबलि रोकिनेछ । त्यो सिङले सत्यतालाई तल जमिनमा फाल्नेछ, र त्यसले जे गर्छ त्यसमा त्यो सफल हुनेछ ।

And the host was given over to it together with the continual burnt-offering through transgression; and it cast down truth to the ground, and it wrought, and prospered.

13 त्‍यसपछि एक जना पवित्र जनले बोल्‍दै गर्नुभएको र अर्को पवित्र जनले उहाँलाई यसो भनेर जवाफ दिंदै गर्नुभएको मैले सुनें, “यी दर्शनका कुराहरू रहने, होमबलि, सर्वनाश ल्याउने पाप, पवित्रस्थानको हस्तान्तरण, र स्वर्गका सेनाहरू कुल्चिइएका पूरा हुनलाई कहिलेसम्म लाग्‍छ?”

Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said unto that certain one who spoke: 'How long shall be the vision concerning the continual burnt-offering, and the transgression that causes appalment, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trampled under foot?'

14 उहाँले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “यो २,३०० साँझ र बिहानसम्म रहनेछ । त्यसपछि पवित्रस्थान फेरि शुद्ध पारिनेछ ।”

And he said unto me: 'Unto two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings; then shall the sanctuary be victorious.'

15 जब म, दानिएलले त्यो दर्शन देखें, तब मैले त्यो बुझ्ने कोसिस गरें । तब मेरो सामु एक जना खडा भए जो मानिसजस्तो देखिन्‍थे ।

And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, that I sought to understand it; and, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.

16 ऊलै नहरको किनाराहरूका बिचबाट एक जना मानिसले यस्तो भन्दै गरेको आवाज मैले सुनें । उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “ए गाब्रिएल, यो दर्शन बुझ्‍नलाई यस मानिसलाई मदत गर ।”

And I heard the voice of a man between the banks of Ulai, who called, and said: 'Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.'

17 यसैले तिनी म उभिएको ठाउँ नजिक आए । जब तिनी आए, म भयभीत भएँ र आफूलाई भुइँमा लम्‍पसार पारेर दण्डवत् गरें । तिनले मलाई भने, “ए मानिसको पुत्र, यो दर्शन अन्तको समयको निम्ति हो भन्‍ने कुरा बुझ ।”

So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was terrified, and fell upon my face; but he said unto me: 'Understand, O son of man; for the vision belongeth to the time of the end.'

18 तिनले मसँग बोलिरहँदा, मेरो अनुहार भुइँमा घोप्‍टो पारेर म गहिरो निद्रामा निदाएँ । तब तिनले मलाई छोए र मलाई खडा गराए ।

Now as he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep with my face toward the ground; but he touched me, and set me upright.

19 तिनले भने, “हेर, पछि क्रोधको समयमा के हुनेछ भनेर म तिमीलाई देखाउनेछु, किनभने यो दर्शन अन्त हुन तोकिएको समयको निम्ति हो ।

And he said: 'Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the latter time of the indignation; for it belongeth to the appointed time of the end.

20 तिमीले देखेका भेडाको बारेमा, जसका दुई सिङ थिए, ती मादी र फारसका राजाहरू हुन् ।

The ram which thou sawest having the two horns, they are the kings of Media and Persia.

21 त्यो बोकोचाहिं ग्रीसको राजा हो । त्यसका आँखाका बिचको सिङचाहिं पहिलो राजा हो ।

And the rough he-goat is the king of Greece; and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.

22 अनि जुन सिङ भाँचियो, जसको ठाउँमा चारवटा अरू उम्रे, उसको राज्यबाट चारवटा राज्‍य खडा हुनेछन्, तर उसको महान् शक्तिमा होइन ।

And as for that which was broken, in the place whereof four stood up, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.

23 ती राज्यहरूको पछिल्लो समयमा, जब अपराधीहरूको पाप चरम सिमामा पुग्छ, एक जना हठी राजा खडा हुनेछ, जो धेरै बुद्धिमान् हुनेछ ।

And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have completed their transgression, there shall stand up a king of fierce countenance, and understanding stratagems.

24 उसको शक्ति महान् हुनेछ— तर उसको आफ्नै शक्तिले होइन । उसले जे कुराको विनाश गर्छ, त्‍यसमा ऊ अचम्ममा पर्नेछ । काम गर्नेछ र सफल हुनेछ । उसले शक्तिशाली मानिसहरू, अर्थात् पवित्र जनहरूका बिचमा भएका मानिसहरूलाई सर्वनाश गर्नेछ ।

And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper and do; and he shall destroy them that are mighty and the people of the saints.

25 आफ्नो धूर्तताले उसले आफ्नो हातमुनि छललाई सफल पार्नेछ । आफ्नै मनमा ऊ महान् हुनेछ । उसले अप्रत्‍यासित किसिमले धेरै मानिसहरूलाई नाश गर्नेछ । राजाहरूका राजाको विरुद्धमा पनि ऊ उठ्नेछ, र ऊ टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिनेछ, तर मानिसका हातले होइन ।

And through his cunning he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and in time of security shall he destroy many; he shall also stand up against the prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

26 साँझ र बिहानको विषयमा बताइएका यी दर्शनहरू सत्य हुन् । तर यो दर्शनलाई मोहर लगाई बन्द गर, किनकि यसले भविष्यका धेरै दिनहरूलाई जनाउँछ ।”

And the vision of the evenings and mornings which hath been told is true; but thou, shut thou up the vision; for it belongeth to many days to come.'

27 अनि, म दानिएल थकित भएँ र केही दिनसम्म कमजोर भएँ । त्यसपछि, म उठें, र राजाको कामधन्धामा लागें । तर म दर्शनको कारणले भयभीत भएँ, र यसलाई बुझ्ने त्यहाँ कोही थिएन ।

And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; then I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was appalled at the vision, but understood it not.
