Daniel 10
1 V tretjem letu perzijskega kralja Kira je bila stvar razodeta Danielu, katerega ime je bilo imenovano Beltšacár. Stvar je bila resnična, toda določeni čas je bil dolg, in razumel je stvar in imel je razumevanje videnja.
In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, even a great warfare: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.
2 V tistih dneh sem jaz, Daniel, žaloval tri polne tedne.
In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks.
3 Nisem jedel nobenega prijetnega kruha, niti ni prišlo v moja usta meso, niti vino, niti se sploh nisem mazilil, dokler niso bili izpolnjeni dnevi treh tednov.
I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine into my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
4 Na štiriindvajseti dan prvega meseca, medtem ko sem bil ob bregu velike reke, ki je Hidekel,
And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel,
5 takrat sem povzdignil svoje oči in pogledal in glej, neki mož, oblečen v platno, čigar ledja so bila opasana s finim zlatom iz Ufaza.
I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with pure gold of Uphaz:
6 Tudi njegovo telo je bilo podobno berilu in njegov obraz kakor videz bliskanja in njegove oči kakor ognjene svetilke in njegovi lakti in njegova stopala podobna barvi zloščenega brona in glas njegovih besed podoben glasu množice.
his body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches, and his arms and his feet like unto burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
7 Samo jaz, Daniel, sem videl videnje, kajti ljudje, ki so bili z menoj, videnja niso videli, toda nanje je padlo veliko drgetanje, tako da so zbežali, da se poskrijejo.
And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision; for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, and they fled to hide themselves.
8 Torej sem ostal sam in gledal to veliko videnje in v meni ni ostalo nobene moči, kajti moja ljubkost je bila v meni spremenjena v pokvarjenost in nobene moči nisem ohranil.
So I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
9 Vendar sem zaslišal glas njegovih besed. Ko sem poslušal glas njegovih besed, sem bil potem v globokem spanju na svojem obrazu in s svojim obrazom proti tlom.
Yet heard I the voice of his words; and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I fallen into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
10 Glej, dotaknila se me je roka, ki me je postavila na moja kolena in na dlani mojih rok.
And, behold, a hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
11 Rekel mi je: »Oh Daniel, silno ljubljen mož, razumi besede, ki ti jih govorim in stoj pokončno, kajti sedaj sem poslan k tebi.« In ko mi je govoril to besedo, sem trepetajoč stal.
And he said unto me, O Daniel, thou man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright; for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
12 Potem mi je rekel: »Ne boj se, Daniel, kajti od prvega dne, ko si pripravil svoje srce k razumevanju in da se ponižaš pred svojim Bogom, so bile tvoje besede uslišane in prišel sem zaradi tvojih besed.
Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard: and I am come for thy words’ sake.
13 Toda princ perzijskega kraljestva se mi je zoperstavljal enaindvajset dni. Toda glej, prišel je Mihael, eden izmed glavnih princev, da mi pomaga, in ostal sem tam s perzijskimi kralji.
But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days; but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me: and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
14 Sedaj sem prišel, da ti dam razumevanje, kaj bo doletelo tvoje ljudstvo v zadnjih dneh, kajti videnje je še za mnoge dni.«
Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days; for the vision is yet for [many] days.
15 Ko mi je govoril takšne besede, sem pobesil svoj obraz proti tlom in postal nem.
And when he had spoken unto me according to these words, I set my face toward the ground, and was dumb.
16 Glej, nekdo podoben človeškim sinovom, se je dotaknil mojih ustnic. Potem sem odprl svoja usta in spregovoril ter rekel temu, ki je stal pred menoj: »Oh moj gospod, po videnju so se moje bridkosti obrnile k meni in nisem ohranil nobene moči.
And, behold, one in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by reason of the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I retain no strength.
17 Kajti kako lahko služabnik tega mojega gospoda govori s tem mojim gospodom? Kajti kar se mene tiče, nemudoma v meni ni ostalo nobene moči niti v meni ni ostalo diha.«
For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither was there breath left in me.
18 Potem je ponovno prišel in se me dotaknil nekdo, podoben videzu človeka, me okrepil
Then there touched me again one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me.
19 in rekel: »Oh silno ljubljeni mož, ne boj se. Mir ti bodi, bodi močan, da, bodi močan.« Ko mi je govoril, sem bil okrepljen in rekel [sem]: »Naj moj gospod govori, kajti okrepil si me.«
And he said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he spake unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.
20 Potem je rekel: »Ali veš zakaj sem prišel k tebi? Sedaj se bom vrnil, da se borim s princem Perzije. Ko odidem, glej, bo prišel princ Grčije.
Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I am come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I go forth, lo, the prince of Greece shall come.
21 Toda pokazal ti bom to, kar je zabeleženo v pismu resnice, in tam ni nikogar, ki drži z menoj v teh stvareh, razen Mihaela, vašega princa.«
But I will tell thee that which is inscribed in the writing of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me against these, but Michael your prince.
