Daniel 11

1 Eu, pois, no primeiro anno de Dario, medo, estive para o esforçar e fortalecer.

“And so, from the first year of Darius the Mede, I stood firm, so that he might be reinforced and strengthened.

2 E agora te declararei a verdade: Eis que ainda tres reis estarão na Persia, e o quarto será enriquecido de grandes riquezas mais do que todos; e, esforçando-se com as suas riquezas, suscitará a todos contra o reino da Grecia.

And now I will announce to you the truth. Behold, up to a certain point, three kings will stand in Persia, and the fourth will be exceedingly enriched in power above them all. And when he has grown strong by his resources, he will stir up all against the kingdom of Greece.

3 Depois se levantará um rei valente, que reinará com grande dominio, e fará o que lhe aprouver.

But there will rise up a strong king, and he will rule with great power, and he will do what he pleases.

4 Mas, estando elle em pé, o seu reino será quebrado, e será repartido para os quatro ventos do céu, porém não para a sua posteridade, nem tão pouco segundo o seu dominio com que reinou, porque o seu reino será arrancado, e será para outros fóra d'estes.

And when he has been firmly established, his kingdom will be shattered and will be divided towards the four winds of the heaven, but not to his posterity, nor according to his power with which he ruled. For his kingdom will be torn to pieces, even for the outsiders who have been expelled from these.

5 E se esforçará o rei do sul, um d'entre os seus principes; mas outro se esforçará, mais do que elle, e reinará, e dominio grande será o seu dominio,

And the king of the South will be reinforced, yet one of his leaders will prevail over him, and he will rule with riches, for great is his domain.

6 Mas, ao cabo de alguns annos, um com outro fará concerto; e a filha do rei do sul virá ao rei do norte para fazer um tratado, mas ella não terá força de braço; nem elle persistirá, nem o seu braço, porque ella será entregue, e os que a tiverem trazido, e seu pae, e o que a esforçava n'aquelles tempos!

And after the end of years, they will form a federation, and the daughter of the king of the South will come to the king of the North to make friendship, but she will not obtain the strength of arms, neither will her offspring stand firm, and she will be handed over, along with those who brought her, her young men, and those who comforted her in these times.

7 Mas do renovo das suas raizes um se levantará em seu logar, e virá com o exercito, e entrará nas fortalezas do rei do norte, e obrará contra elles, e prevalecerá.

And a transplant from the germination of her roots will stand up, and he will come with an army, and will enter into the province of the king of the North, and he will abuse them, and will hold it fast.

8 E tambem os seus deuses com os seus principes, com os seus vasos preciosos de prata e oiro, levará captivos para o Egypto; e por alguns annos elle persistirá contra o rei do norte.

And, in addition, he will carry away captive into Egypt their gods, and their graven images, and likewise their precious vessels of gold and silver. He will prevail against the king of the North.

9 Assim entrará o rei do sul no reino, e tornará para a sua terra.

And the king of the South will enter into the kingdom, and will return to his own land.

10 Porém seus filhos se entremetterão em guerra, e ajuntarão grande numero de exercitos, e um d'elles virá á pressa, e inundará, e passará, e tornará a entremetter-se em guerra, até chegar á sua fortaleza

But his sons will be challenged, and they will assemble a multitude of very many forces. And he will arrive rushing and overflowing. And he will be turned back, and he will be enraged, and he will join the battle in his redness.

11 Então o rei do sul se exasperará, e sairá, e pelejará contra elle, a saber, contra o rei do norte, que porá em campo grande multidão, mas aquella multidão será entregue na sua mão

And the king of the South, having being challenged, will go forth and will fight against the king of the North, and he will prepare an exceedingly great multitude, and a multitude will be given into his hand.

12 Quando fôr tirada aquella multidão, o seu coração se elevará: ainda que derribará muitos milhares, comtudo não prevalecerá.

And he will seize a multitude, and his heart will be exalted, and he will cast down many thousands, but he will not prevail.

13 Porque o rei do norte tornará, e porá em campo uma multidão maior do que a primeira, e ao cabo dos tempos, isto é, annos, virá á pressa com grande exercito e com muita fazenda.

For the king of the North will change strategy and will prepare a multitude much greater than before, and at the end of times and years, he will rush forward with a great army and exceedingly great resources.

14 E, n'aquelles tempos, muitos se levantarão contra o rei do sul; e os filhos dos prevaricadores do teu povo se levantarão para confirmar a visão, e cairão.

And in those times, many will rise up against the king of the South. And likewise the sons of the deceivers among your people will extol themselves, so as to fulfill the vision, and they will collapse.

15 E o rei do norte virá, e levantará baluartes, e tomará a cidade forte; e os braços do sul não poderão subsistir, nem o seu povo escolhido, pois não haverá força para subsistir.

And the king of the North will arrive and will transport siege works, and he will seize the most fortified cities. And the arms of the South will not withstand him, and his elect will rise up to resist, but the strength will not.

16 O que pois ha de vir contra elle fará segundo a sua vontade, e não haverá quem possa subsistir diante d'elle: e estará na terra gloriosa, e haverá consumição na sua mão.

And when he arrives, he will do just as he pleases, and there will be none who stand against his face. And he will stand in the illustrious land, and it will be consumed by his hand.

17 E porá o seu rosto, para vir com a potencia de todo o seu reino, e com elle os rectos, e o fará: e lhe dará uma filha das mulheres, para a destruir a ella, mas ella não subsistirá, nem será por elle.

And he will set his face to strive to hold his entire kingdom, and he will make fair conditions with him. And he will give him a daughter among women, so as to overthrow it. But she will not stand, neither will she be for him.

18 Depois virará o seu rosto para as ilhas, e tomará muitas; e um principe fará cessar o seu opprobrio contra elle, e ainda fará tornar sobre elle o seu opprobrio.

And he will turn his face towards the islands, and he will seize many. And he will cause the leader of his reproach to cease, and his reproach will be turned around for him.

19 Virará pois o seu rosto para as fortalezas da sua terra, mas tropeçará, e cairá, e não será achado.

And he will turn his face to the empire of his own land, and he will strike, and will overthrow, but he will not succeed.

20 E em seu logar se levantará quem fará passar o arrecadador em gloria real; mas em poucos dias será quebrantado, e isto não em ira nem em batalha.

And there will stand up in his place one who is most worthless and unworthy of kingly honor. And in a short time, he will be worn out, but not in fury, nor in battle.

21 Depois se levantará em seu logar um homem vil, ao qual não darão a dignidade real; mas virá caladamente, e tomará o reino com engano.

And there will stand up in his place the despicable one, and he will not be assigned the honor of a king. And he will arrive in secret, and he will obtain the kingdom by deceitfulness.

22 E os braços da inundação serão inundados de diante d'elle; e serão quebrantados, como tambem o principe do concerto.

And the arms of the fighting will be assaulted before his face and will be shattered, and, in addition, the leader of the federation.

23 E, depois dos concertos com elle, usará de engano; e subirá, e será esforçado com pouca gente.

And, after making friends, he will trick him, and he will go up and will overcome with a small people.

24 Virá tambem caladamente aos logares gordos da provincia, e fará o que nunca fizeram seus paes, nem os paes de seus paes; repartirá entre elles a preza e os despojos, e a riqueza, e formará os seus projectos contra as fortalezas, porém sómente por certo tempo

And he will enter into rich and resourceful cities, and he will do what his fathers never did, nor his fathers’ fathers. He will scatter their spoils, and their prey, and their riches, and will form a plan against the most steadfast, and this until a time.

25 E suscitará a sua força e o seu coração contra o rei do sul com um grande exercito; e o rei do sul se entremetterá na guerra com um grande e mui poderoso exercito; mas não subsistirá, porque formarão projectos contra elle.

And his strength and his heart will be enraged against the king of the South with a great army. And the king of the South will be provoked into going to war by having many allies and exceedingly good circumstances, and yet these will not stand, for they will form plans against him.

26 E os que comerem os seus manjares o quebrantarão; e o exercito d'elle inundará, e cairão muitos traspassados.

And those who eat bread with him will crush him, and his army will be suppressed, and very many will die, having been executed.

27 Tambem estes dois reis terão o coração attento para fazerem o mal, e a uma mesma mesa fallarão a mentira, mas não prosperará, porque o fim ainda terá logar no tempo determinado.

And the heart of two kings will be similar, to do harm, and they will speak lies at one table, but they will not succeed, because as yet the end is for another time.

28 E tornará para a sua terra com grande riqueza, e o seu coração será contra o sancto concerto; e obrará, e tornará para a sua terra

And he will return to his land with many resources. And his heart will be against the holy testament, and he will act, and he will return to his own land.

29 Ao tempo determinado tornará a vir contra o sul; mas não será a ultima como a primeira vez.

At the appointed time, he will return, and he will approach the South, but the latter time will not be like the former.

30 Porque virão contra elle navios de Chittim, de que se entristecerá; e tornará, e se indignará contra o sancto concerto, e obrará, porque tornará a attender aos que tiverem desamparado o sancto concerto.

And the Greek warships and the Romans will come upon him, and he will be pierced, and will retreat, and will have scorn against the testament of the sanctuary, and he will act. And he will return and will consult their adversaries, who have forsaken the covenant of the sanctuary.

31 E sairão a elle uns braços, e profanarão o sanctuario e a fortaleza, e tirarão o continuo sacrificio, e porão a abominação assoladora.

And arms will take his side, and they will pollute the sanctuary of the strength, and they will take away the continual sacrifice and will replace it with the abomination of desolation.

32 E aos violadores do concerto com lisonjas fará usar de hypocrisia, mas o povo que conhece ao seu Deus se esforçará e fará proezas.

And the impious within the testament will imitate deceitfully, but the people, knowing their God, will persevere and will act.

33 E os entendidos entre o povo ensinarão a muitos; e cairão pela espada, e pelo fogo, e pelo captiveiro, e pelo roubo, por muitos dias.

And the teachers among the people will teach many, but they will be ruined by the sword, and by fire, and by captivity, and by assaults for many days.

34 E, caindo elles, serão ajudados com pequeno soccorro; e muitos se ajuntarão com elles com lisonjas.

And when they have fallen, they will be supported with a little help, but many will apply to them deceitfully.

35 E alguns dos entendidos cairão, para os provar, e purgar, e embranquecer, até ao fim do tempo, porque será ainda até ao tempo determinado.

And some of the learned will be ruined, that they may be kindled and chosen and purified, up to the predetermined time, because there will be still another time.

36 E este rei fará conforme a sua vontade, e se levantará, e se engrandecerá sobre todo o deus; e contra o Deus dos deuses fallará coisas maravilhosas, e será prospero, até que a ira seja acabada; porque aquillo que está determinado será feito.

And the king will act according to his will, and he will be lifted up and will be extolled against every god. And he will speak great things against the God of gods, and he will control, until the passion is completed. Once accomplished, the limit is reached with certainty.

37 E não terá respeito algum ao Deus de seus paes, nem terá respeito ao amor das mulheres, nem a algum outro deus, porque sobre tudo se engrandecerá.

And he will give no thought to the God of his fathers, and he will be in the desire of women, and he will not attend to any gods, because he will rise up against all things.

38 E ao deus das fortalezas honrará em seu logar, a saber, ao deus a quem seus paes não conheceram honrará com oiro, e com prata, e com pedras preciosas, e com coisas desejadas.

But he will do homage to the god Maozim in his place, and, a god whom his fathers did not know, he will worship with gold, and silver, and precious stones, and costly things.

39 E fará os castellos fortes com o deus estranho; aos que reconhecer multiplicará a honra, e os fará reinar sobre muitos, e repartirá a terra por preço.

And he will act to reinforce Maozim with an alien god, of whom he has become aware, and he will increase their glory, and will give them power over many, and he will distribute land for free.

40 E, no fim do tempo, o rei do sul lhe dará marradas, e o rei do norte o accommetterá com carros, e com cavalleiros, e com muitos navios; e entrará nas terras, e as inundará, e passará.

And, at the predetermined time, the king of the South will fight against him, and the king of the North will come against him like a tempest, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with a great fleet, and he will enter into the lands, and will crush and pass through.

41 E entrará na terra gloriosa, e muitas terras serão derribadas, mas escaparão da sua mão estes: Edom e Moab, e as primicias dos filhos d'Amon.

And he will enter into the glorious land, and many will fall. But only these will be saved from his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the first part of the sons of Ammon.

42 E estenderá a sua mão ás terras, e a terra do Egypto não escapará.

And he will cast his hand upon the lands, and the land of Egypt will not escape.

43 E apoderar-se-ha dos thesouros de oiro e de prata, e de todas as coisas desejadas do Egypto; e os lybios e os ethiopes o seguirão.

And he will rule over the treasure chests of gold, and silver, and all the precious things of Egypt, and likewise he will pass through Libya and Ethiopia.

44 Mas os rumores do oriente e do norte o espantarão; e sairá com grande furor, para destruir e extirpar a muitos.

And rumors from the East and from the North will trouble him. And he will arrive with a great multitude to destroy and to execute many.

45 E armará as tendas do seu palacio entre o mar grande, no monte sancto e glorioso; mas virá ao seu fim, e não haverá quem o soccorra.

And he will fasten his tabernacle, Apadno, between the seas, upon an illustrious and holy mountain, and he will come even to its summit, and no one will help him.”
