Daniel 7
1 No primeiro anno de Belshazzar, rei de Babylonia, teve Daniel um sonho e visões da sua cabeça estando na sua cama: escreveu logo o sonho, e relatou a summa das coisas.
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions in his mind on his bed. Then he wrote the dream and told the summary of it.
2 Fallou Daniel, e disse: Eu estava vendo na minha visão da noite, e eis que os quatro ventos do céu combatiam no mar grande.
Daniel spoke and said, "I saw in my vision by night, and, look, the four winds of the sky broke forth on the great sea.
3 E quatro animaes grandes, differentes uns dos outros, subiam do mar.
Four great animals came up from the sea, different from one another.
4 O primeiro era como leão, e tinha azas de aguia: eu estava olhando, até que lhe foram arrancadas as azas; e foi levantado da terra, e posto em pé como um homem, e foi-lhe dado um coração de homem.
The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings. I saw until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand on two feet as a man; and a man's mind was given to it.
5 E eis aqui outro segundo animal, similhante a um urso, o qual se levantou de um lado, e tinha na bocca tres costellas entre os seus dentes, e foi-lhe dito assim: Levanta-te, devora muita carne.
And look, another animal, a second one, like a bear; and it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth. And they said this to it, 'Arise, devour much flesh.'
6 Depois d'isto, eu estava olhando, e eis aqui outro, que era como leopardo, e tinha quatro azas de ave nas suas costas: tinha tambem este animal quatro cabeças, e foi-lhe dado dominio.
After this I saw, and look, another one, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird. The animal also had four heads; and dominion was given to it.
7 Depois d'isto, eu estava olhando nas visões da noite, e eis aqui o quarto animal, terrivel e espantoso, e muito forte, o qual tinha dentes grandes de ferro, devorava e fazia em pedaços, e pizava aos seus pés o que sobejava; e era differente de todos os animaes que foram antes d'elle, e tinha dez pontas.
After this I saw in the night visions, and look, a fourth animal, awesome and powerful, and extremely strong. And it had great iron teeth. It devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped what was left with its feet. And it was diverse from all the animals that were before it; and it had ten horns.
8 Estando eu considerando as pontas, eis que outra ponta pequena subia entre ellas, e tres das pontas primeiras foram arrancadas de diante d'elle; e eis que n'esta ponta havia olhos, como olhos de homem, e uma bocca que fallava grandiosamente.
I considered the horns, and look, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots. And look, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking arrogant things.
9 Eu estive olhando, até que foram postos uns thronos, e o ancião de dias se assentou: o seu vestido era branco como a neve, e o cabello da sua cabeça como a limpa lã; o seu throno chammas de fogo, e as rodas d'elle fogo ardente.
I saw until thrones were placed, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool. His throne was fiery flames, and its wheels burning fire.
10 Um rio de fogo manava e sahia de diante d'elle: milhares de milhares o serviam, e milhões de milhões estavam em pé diante d'elle: assentou-se o juizo, e abriram-se os livros.
A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him. Thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court sat in judgment, and the books were opened.
11 Então estive olhando, por causa da voz das grandes palavras que fallava a ponta: estive olhando até que mataram o animal, e o seu corpo foi desfeito, e entregue para ser queimado pelo fogo.
I saw at that time because of the voice of the arrogant words which the horn spoke. I was watching until the animal was killed and its body destroyed and was given to be burned with fire.
12 E, quanto aos outros animaes, foi-lhes tirado o dominio; todavia foi-lhes dado prolongação de vida até certo espaço de tempo.
As for the rest of the animals, their dominion was taken away, yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
13 Eu estava vendo nas minhas visões da noite, e eis que era vindo nas nuvens do céu um como o filho do homem: e chegou até ao ancião dos dias, e o fizeram chegar perante elle.
I saw in the night visions, and look, there came with the clouds of the sky one like a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of Days, and they brought him near before him.
14 E foi-lhe dado o dominio e a honra, e o reino, e que todos os povos, nações e linguas o servissem: o seu dominio é um dominio eterno, que não passará, e o seu reino se não destruirá.
There was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
15 Quanto a mim, Daniel, o meu espirito foi abatido dentro do corpo, e as visões da minha cabeça me espantavam.
As for me, Daniel, my spirit was grieved in the midst of my body, and the visions of my mind troubled me.
16 Cheguei-me a um dos que estavam em pé, e pedi-lhe a certeza ácerca de tudo isto. E elle me disse, e fez-me saber a interpretação das coisas.
I came near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the true meaning concerning all this. So he told me, and revealed to me the interpretation of these things.
17 Estes grandes animaes, que são quatro, são quatro reis, que se levantarão da terra.
These great animals, which are four, are four kings, who shall arise out of the earth.
18 Mas os sanctos do Altissimo receberão o reino, e possuirão o reino para todo o sempre, e de eternidade em eternidade.
But the holy ones of the Most High shall receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, forever and ever.
19 Então tive desejo de ter certeza do quarto animal, que era differente de todos os outros, muito terrivel, cujos dentes eram de ferro, e as suas unhas de metal; que devorava, fazia em pedaços e pizava a pés o que sobrava.
Then I desired to know the true meaning concerning the fourth animal, which was different from all of them, exceedingly terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and its claws of bronze; which devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped what was left with its feet.
20 Tambem das dez pontas que tinha na cabeça, e da outra que subia, de diante da qual cairam tres, d'aquella ponta, digo, que tinha olhos, e bocca que fallava grandiosamente, e cujo parecer era maior do que o das suas companheiras.
And concerning the ten horns that were on its head, and the other horn which came up, and before which three fell, even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke arrogant things, whose look was larger than the others.
21 Eu olhava, e eis que esta ponta fazia guerra contra os sanctos, e os vencia.
I saw, and the same horn made war with the holy ones, and prevailed against them,
22 Até que veiu o ancião de dias, e se deu o juizo aos sanctos do Altissimo, e chegou o tempo em que os sanctos possuiram o reino.
until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given to the holy ones of the Most High, and the time came that the holy ones possessed the kingdom.
23 Disse assim: O quarto animal será o quarto reino na terra, o qual será differente de todos os reinos; e devorará toda a terra, e a pizará aos pés, e a fará em pedaços.
This he said, 'The fourth animal shall be a fourth kingdom on earth, which shall be different from all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 E, quanto ás dez pontas, d'aquelle mesmo reino se levantarão dez reis; e depois d'elles se levantará outro, o qual será differente dos primeiros, e abaterá a tres reis
As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom shall ten kings arise, and another shall arise after them; and he shall be diverse from the former, and he shall put down three kings.
25 E fallará palavras contra o Altissimo, e destruirá os sanctos do Altissimo, e cuidará em mudar os tempos e a lei; e serão entregues na sua mão por um tempo, e tempos, e a metade d'um tempo.
He shall speak words against the Most High, and shall oppress the holy ones of the Most High; and he shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given over to him until a time and times and half a time.
26 E o juizo estará assentado, e tirarão o seu dominio, para o destruir e para o desfazer até ao fim.
And the court shall sit in judgment, and they shall take away his dominion, consumed and completely destroyed forever.
27 E o reino, e o dominio, e a magestade dos reinos debaixo de todo o céu se dará ao povo dos sanctos do Altissimo: o seu reino será um reino eterno, e todos os dominios o servirão, e lhe obedecerão:
The kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the holy ones of the Most High. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.'
28 Até aqui foi o fim do negocio. Quanto a mim, Daniel, os meus pensamentos muito me espantavam, e mudou-se em mim o meu semblante; mas guardei o negocio no meu coração.
Here is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts troubled me greatly, and my face turned pale. I kept the matter to myself."
