Книга пророка Даниила 11

1 Аз же в первое лето Кирово стах в державу и крепость.

And I in the first year of Darius the Mede had my station to assist and to protect him.

2 И ныне истину возвещу тебе се, еще трие царие востанут в Персиде четвертый же разбогатеет богатством великим паче всех и по одержании богатства своего востанет на вся царства Еллинская:

And now will I tell thee the truth. Behold, there will stand up yet three kings of Persia: and the fourth will obtain far greater riches than all [these]: and when he is strong through his riches will he stir up all, [namely, ] the kingdom of Javan.

3 и востанет царь силен, и обладает властию многою, и сотворит по воли своей.

And then will stand up a mighty king, who will rule with great dominion, and do according to his pleasure.

4 И егда станет царство его сокрушится и разделится на четыри ветры небесныя, и не в последняя своя, ниже по власти своей, еюже совладе, понеже исторгнется царство его и другим кроме сих отдастся.

And when he shall have stood, his kingdom will be broken, and will be divided toward the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled; for his kingdom will be torn asunder even for others beside those.

5 И укрепится царь южский, и от князей их един укепеет нань и обладает властию многою над властию его.

And the king of the south will become strong, yea, he who is one of his princes; but [another] will become strong against him, and will rule: a great dominion will his dominion be.

6 И по летех его смесятся, и дщи царя южска внидет к северску царю, еже сотворити завет с ним, и не удержит крепости мышцы, и не станет племя ея, и предастся та и приведшии ю, и дева и укрепляяй ю во временех.

But at the end of [some] years will they associate themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make a settlement of difficulties; but she will not retain the power of the support; neither will he stand, nor his support: but she will be given up with those that had brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in those times.

7 И востанет от цвета корене ея на уготование его и приидет в силу, и внидет во утверждения царя северскаго и сотворит в них и одержит:

But there will up a sprout of her roots in his place, and he will come to the army, and will enter into the stronghold of the king of the north, and will deal with them, and prevail:

8 и боги их со слиянными их, вся сосуды их вожделенны сребра и злата с пленники принесет во Египет, и той востанет паче царя северска:

And also their gods with their molten images, with their precious vessels of silver and of gold, will he carry into captivity to Egypt; and he will stand off some years from the king of the north.

9 и внидет в царство царя южскаго, и возвратится на свою землю.

But this one will then enter the kingdom of the king of the south, and then return into his own land.

10 И сынове его соберут народ силен мног, и внидет грядый и потопляяй: и мимо прейдет и сядет, и даже до крепости его снидется.

But his sons will commence a war, and assemble a multitude of great armies; and one will certainly enter, and overflow, and pass along: then will he return, and make war again, even to his stronghold.

11 И разсвирепеет царь южский, и изыдет и брань сотворит с царем северским, и поставит народ мног, и предастся народ в руце его.

And the king of the south will be moved with bitter wrath, and go forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he will set forth a great multitude; but the multitude [of the other] will be given up into his hand.

12 И возмет народы, и возвысится сердце его, и соодолеет тмам, и не укрепеет.

And the multitude will be lifted up, and his heart will become proud; and he will cast down myriads; but he will not be strengthened by it.

13 И возвратится царь северский и приведет народ мног паче прежняго: и на конец времен лет приидет входом в силе велицей и со имением многим.

And the king of the north will return, and set forth a multitude greater than the former; and at the end of the times, of years, will he certainly come with a great army and with much riches.

14 И в лета она мнози востанут на царя южска, и сынове губителей людий твоих воздвигнутся, еже поставити видение, и изнемогут.

And in those times many will stand up against the king of the south: also the rebellious sons of thy people will lift themselves up to establish the vision; but they will stumble.

15 И внидет царь северский и сотворит окоп и возмет грады тверды, мышцы же царя южскаго не станут и востанут избраннии его, и не будет крепости еже стати.

And the king of the north will come, and cast up a mound, and capture the city defended by fortifications: and the arms of the south will not withstand, and as regardeth his chosen people, there will be no power [in them] to withstand.

16 И сотворит входяй к нему по воли своей, и несть стоящаго противу лица его: и станет на земли савеи, и скончается в руце его.

But he that cometh against them will do according to his pleasure, and none will stand before him; and he will place himself in the glorious land, which will be altogether in his hand.

17 И вчинит лице свое внити в силе всего царства своего, и праве вся сотворит с ним: и дщерь жен даст ему еже растлити ю, и не пребудет, и не будет ему.

He will also direct his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, having professions of peace with him; and thus will he do it: and he will give him the daughter of his wife to destroy it: but it will not stand, and it will not remain his.

18 И обратит лице свое на островы, и возмет многи, и погубит князи укоризны своея, обаче укоризна его возвратится ему.

And he will direct his face unto the isles, and capture many; but a chieftain will cause to cease his reproach against him: without his giving back to him his own reproach.

19 И обратит лице свое в крепость земли своея, и изнеможет, и падется, и не обрящется.

Then will he direct his face toward the strong-holds of his own land; but he will stumble and fall, and will no more be found.

20 И востанет от корене его сад царства на уготование его производяй творяй славу царства: и в тыя дни еще сокрушится, и не в лицах, ни в рати:

And there will stand up in his place one who will cause the exactor [of taxes] to pass through the glorious [land] of the kingdom; but within a few days will he be broken, but not in anger, nor in battle.

21 станет во уготовании его ункчижися, и не даша нань славы царства: и приидет со обилием и соодолеет царству лестьми,

And there will stand up in his place a despicable person, to whom they assigned not the honor of the kingdom; but he will come in quietly, and lay hold of the kingdom by flatteries.

22 и мышцы потопляющаго потопятся от лица его и сокрушатся и старейшина завета.

And the powers of the overflow will be swept away from before him, and will be broken: yea, so also the prince in covenant [with him].

23 И от совокуплений к нему сотворит лесть, и взыдет, и преодолеет их в мале языце:

And from the time of his associating with him will he deal deceitfully; and he will come up, and obtain the victory with a small number of people.

24 и во обилие и в тучныя страны приидет, и сотворит, яже не сотвориша отцы его и отцы отцев его: пленение и корысти и имение им расточит, и на Египта помыслит мыслию даже до времене.

In quiet and into the fattest portion of the province will he enter; and he will do what his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers: the prey, and spoil, and riches will he divide freely to them, and against the strong-holds will he devise his plans, but only till a certain time.

25 И востанет крепость его, и сердце его на царя южскаго в силе велице, царь же южский сотворит с ним сечь силою великою и крепкою зело, и не станут: яко помышляют нань помышления

And he will then stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army: and the king of the south will prepare himself for the war with an exceedingly great and mighty army; but he will not stand; for they will devise [evil] plans against him.

26 и изядят потребная его и сокрушат его, и силы разсыплет, и падут язвении мнози.

Yea, they that eat of his food will bring his downfall, and the army of the other will overflow; and many will fall down slain.

27 И оба царя, сердца их на лукавство, и на трапезе единей возглаголют лжу, и не предуспеет, яко еще конец на время.

And as for both these kings, their heart is bent on mischief, and at one table will they speak lies; but it shall not prosper; for the end is yet for the time appointed.

28 И возвратится на свою землю со имением многим, и сердце его на завет святый, и сотворит, и возвратится на свою землю.

Then will he return into his land with great riches, and his heart will be against the holy covenant: and he will do it, and return to his own land.

29 На время возвратится и приидет на юг, и не будет якоже первая и последняя.

At the time appointed will he return, and enter into the south; but not as in the former will it be in the latter time.

30 И внидут с ним исходящии Китяне, и смирится, и возвратится, и возярится на завет святый: и сотворит, и возвратится, и умыслит на оставльшыя завет святый.

For there will come against him the ships of Kittim; and he will become faint-hearted, and return, and will rage against the holy covenant; and he will do it: and he will return, and have an understanding with those that forsake the holy covenant.

31 И мышцы и племена от него востанут и осквернят святыню могутства и преставят жертву всегдашнюю и дадят мерзость запустения,

And the army divisions will proceed from him, and they will defile the sanctuary, the fortress, and remove the continual sacrifice, and they will set up the desolating abomination.

32 и беззаконнующии завет наведут со прелестию: людие же ведуще Бога своего премогут и сотворят,

And such as act wickedly against the covenant will he corrupt by flatteries; but the people that do know their God will be strong, and deal [valiantly].

33 и смысленнии людие уразумеют много, и изнемогут в мечи и в пламени, и в пленении и в разграблении дний.

And the intelligent among the people will impart understanding to many: yet they will stumble through the sword, and through flame, through captivity, and through being plundered for some time.

34 И егда изнемогут, поможется им помощию малою, и приложатся к ним мнози со прелестию.

But in their stumbling will they be aided with a little help: but many will join themselves to them with deceptive flatteries.

35 И от смысливших изнемогут, еже разжещи я и избрати, и еже открыти даже до конца времене, яко еще на время.

And some of the intelligent will stumble, to make a purification among them, and to select and to cleanse them, until the time of the end; because it is yet for the time appointed.

36 И сотворит по воли своей, и царь возвысится и возвеличится над всяким богом, и на Бога богов возглаголет тяжкая, и управит, дондеже скончает гнев, в скончание бо бывает.

And the king will do according to his pleasure; and he will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and against the God of gods will he speak incredible things, and he will prosper till the indignation be at an end; for that which is determined will be accomplished.

37 И о всех бозех отцев своих не смыслит, и рачении жен, и о всяцем бозе не уразумеет, понеже паче всех возвеличится.

And to the gods of his fathers will he pay no regard; and to the desire of women, or to any god whatever will he not pay any regard; for above all will he magnify himself.

38 И бога маозима на месте своем прославит, и бога, егоже не ведеша отцы его, почтит сребром и златом и камыком честным и похотьми,

But in his place he will pay honor to the god of the fortresses; and to a god whom his fathers knew not will he pay honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and costly things.

39 и сотворит тверделем убежищ с богом чуждим, егоже познает, и умножит славу, и покорит им многи, и землю разделит в дары.

This will he do for the very strong fortresses together with the strange god: whoever will acknowledge him, him will he give much honor; and he will cause such to rule over many, and he will divide out the land for a price.

40 И на конец времене сразится ратию с царем южским: и соберется на него царь северский с колесницами и с конники и с корабли многими, и внидет в землю, и сокрушит, и мимоидет,

And at the time of the end will the king of the south push against him; and the king of the north will come against him like a storm-wind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he will enter into some countries, and will overflow and press along.

41 и внидет на землю саваимску, и мнози изнемогут: сии же спасутся от руки его, Едом и Моав и начало сынов Аммоних.

And he will enter into the glorious land, and much will be overthrown; but these will escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the first portion of the children of 'Ammon.

42 И прострет руку свою на землю, и земля Египетска не будет во спасение.

And he will stretch forth his hand against some countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape.

43 И владети начнет в сокровенных злата и сребра и во всех вожделенных Египта и Ливиев и Ефиопов, в тверделех их.

And he will have control over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the costly things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians will follow at his steps.

44 И слышания и поткщания возмутят его от восток и от севера: и приидет во ярости мнозе, еже погубити многи.

But reports out of the east and out of the north will terrify him; and he will go forth with great fury to destroy, and to exterminate many.

45 И поткнет кущу свою ефадано между морями, на горе святей савеи, приидет даже до части ея, и несть избавляяй его.

And he will pitch the tents of his palace between seas and the glorious holy mountain; and he will come to his end, without one to help him.
