< Daniel 11 >
1 At tungkol sa akin, nang unang taon ni Dario na taga Media, ako'y tumayo upang patibayin at palakasin siya.
“And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, my standing [is] for a strengthener, and for a stronghold to him;
2 At ngayo'y aking ipatatalastas sa iyo ang katotohanan. Narito, tatayo pa ang tatlong hari sa Persia; at ang ikaapat ay magiging totoong mayaman kay sa kanilang lahat: at pagka siya'y lumakas sa kaniyang mga yaman, ay kaniyang kikilusin ang lahat laban sa kaharian ng Grecia.
and now, I declare to you truth: Behold, yet three kings are standing for Persia, and the fourth becomes far richer than all, and according to his strength by his riches he stirs up the whole, with the kingdom of Javan.
3 At isang makapangyarihang hari ay tatayo, na magpupuno na may malaking kapangyarihan, at gagawa ng ayon sa kaniyang kalooban.
And a mighty king has stood, and he has ruled a great dominion, and has done according to his will;
4 At pagka tatayo siya ay magigiba ang kaniyang kaharian, at mababahagi sa apat na hangin ng langit, nguni't hindi sa kaniyang anak, ni ayon man sa kaniyang kapangyarihan na kaniyang ipinagpuno; sapagka't ang kaniyang kaharian ay mabubunot para sa mga iba bukod sa mga ito.
and according to his standing is his kingdom broken, and divided to the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion that he ruled, for his kingdom is plucked up—and for others apart from these.
5 At ang hari sa timugan ay magiging malakas, at ang isa sa kaniyang mga prinsipe; at siya'y magiging malakas kay sa kaniya, at magtataglay ng kapangyarihan; ang kaniyang kapangyarihan ay magiging dakilang kapangyarihan.
And a king of the south—even of his princes—becomes strong, and prevails against him, and has ruled; a great dominion [is] his dominion.
6 At sa katapusan ng mga taon, sila'y magpipipisan; at ang anak na babae ng hari sa timugan ay paroroon sa hari sa hilagaan upang gumawa ng pakikipagkasundo: nguni't hindi niya mapananatili ang lakas ng kaniyang bisig; o siya ma'y tatayo, o ang bisig man niya; kundi siya'y mabibigay, at yaong mga nangagdala sa kaniya, at ang nanganak sa kaniya, at ang nagpalakas sa kaniya sa mga panahong yaon.
And at the end of years they join themselves together, and a daughter of the king of the south comes to the king of the north to do upright things; and she does not retain the power of the arm; and he does not stand, nor his arm; and she is given up, she, and those bringing her in, and her child, and he who is strengthening her in [these] times.
7 Nguni't sa suwi ng kaniyang mga ugat ay tatayo ang isa na kahalili niya na paroroon sa hukbo, at papasok sa katibayan ng hari sa hilagaan, at gagawa ng laban sa kanila, at mananaig.
And [one] has stood up from a branch of her roots, [in] his station, and he comes to the bulwark, indeed, he comes into a stronghold of the king of the north, and has worked against them, and has done mightily;
8 At gayon din ang kanilang mga dios sangpu ng kanilang mga larawang binubo, at ng kanilang mga mainam na sisidlan na pilak at ginto ay dadalhing samsam sa Egipto; at siya'y magluluwat na ilang taon kay sa hari sa hilagaan.
and also their gods, with their princes, with their desirable vessels of silver and gold, he brings in captivity [to] Egypt; and he stands more years than the king of the north.
9 At siya'y paroroon sa kaharian ng hari sa timugan, nguni't siya'y babalik sa kaniyang sariling lupain.
And the king of the south has come into the kingdom, and turned back to his own land;
10 At ang kaniyang mga anak ay makikipagdigma, at mapipisan ng isang karamihang malaking hukbo, na magpapatuloy, at aabot, at lalagpas; at sila'y magsisibalik at makikipagdigma, hanggang sa kaniyang katibayan.
and his sons stir themselves up, and have gathered a multitude of great forces, and he has certainly come in, and overflowed, and passed through, and he turns back, and they stir themselves up to his stronghold.
11 At ang hari sa timugan ay makikilos ng pagkagalit, at lalabas at makikipaglaban sa kaniya, sa makatuwid baga'y sa hari sa hilagaan; at siya'y maglalabas ng malaking karamihan, at ang karamiha'y mabibigay sa kaniyang kamay.
And the king of the south becomes embittered, and has gone forth and fought with him, with the king of the north, and has caused a great multitude to stand, and the multitude has been given into his hand,
12 At ang karamihan ay madadala, at ang kaniyang puso ay magpapalalo; at siya'y magbubuwal ng libo-libo, nguni't hindi mananaig.
and he has carried away the multitude, his heart is high, and he has caused myriads to fall, and he does not become strong.
13 At ang hari sa hilagaan ay babalik, at maglalabas ng isang karamihan na lalong malaki kay sa una; at siya'y magpapatuloy hanggang sa wakas ng mga panahon, ng mga taon, na ma'y malaking hukbo, at maraming kayamanan.
And the king of the north has turned back, and has caused a multitude to stand, greater than the first, and at the end of the times a second time he certainly comes in with a great force, and with much substance;
14 At sa mga panahong yaon ay maraming magsisitayo laban sa hari sa timugan: gayon din ang mga anak na mangdadahas sa gitna ng iyong bayan ay magsisibangon upang itatag ang pangitain; nguni't sila'y mangabubuwal.
and in those times many stand up against the king of the south, and sons of the destroyers of your people lift themselves up to establish the vision—and they have stumbled.
15 Sa gayo'y paroroon ang hari sa hilagaan, at gagawa ng isang bunton, at sasakop ng isang bayan na nakukutaang mabuti: at ang pulutong ng timugan ay hindi makatatayo ni ang kaniya mang piling bayan, ni magtataglay man sila ng anomang kalakasan, upang tumayo.
And the king of the north comes in, and pours out a mound, and has captured fortified cities; and the arms of the south do not stand, nor the people of his choice, indeed, there is no power to stand.
16 Nguni't ang dumarating laban sa kaniya, ay gagawa ng ayon sa sariling kalooban, at walang tatayo sa harap niya; at siya'y tatayo sa maluwalhating lupain, at sasa kaniyang kamay ang paglipol.
And he who is coming to him does according to his will, and there is none standing before him; and he stands in the desirable land, and [it is] wholly in his hand.
17 At kaniyang itatanaw ang kaniyang mukha upang pumaroon na kasama ng lakas ng kaniyang buong kaharian, at ng mga tapat na kasama niya; at siya'y gagawa ng mga yaon: at ibibigay niya sa kaniya ang anak na babae ng mga babae, upang hamakin; nguni't siya'y hindi tatayo, ni siya'y mapapasa kaniya man.
And he sets his face to go in with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; and he has worked, and the daughter of women he gives to him, to corrupt her; and she does not stand, nor is for him.
18 Pagkatapos nito'y kaniyang ipipihit ang kaniyang mukha sa mga pulo, at sasakop ng marami: nguni't isang prinsipe ay magpapatigil ng pagkutya niya; oo, bukod dito'y kaniyang pababalikin ang kaniyang kakutyaan sa kaniya.
And he turns back his face to the islands, and has captured many; and a prince has caused his reproach of himself to cease; without his reproach he turns [it] back to him.
19 Kung magkagayo'y kaniyang ipipihit ang kaniyang mukha sa dako ng mga kuta ng kaniyang sariling lupain; nguni't siya'y matitisod at mabubuwal, at hindi masusumpungan.
And he turns back his face to the strongholds of his land, and has stumbled and fallen, and is not found.
20 Kung magkagayo'y tatayo na kahalili niya ang isa na magpaparaan ng maniningil sa kaluwalhatian ng kaharian; nguni't sa loob ng kaunting araw ay mapapahamak, na hindi sa kagalitan, o sa pagbabaka man.
And stood up on his station has [one] causing an exactor to pass over the honor of the kingdom, and in a few days he is destroyed, and not in anger, nor in battle.
21 At kahalili niya na tatayo ang isang hamak na tao, na hindi nila pinagbigyan ng karangalan ng kaharian: nguni't siya'y darating sa panahong katiwasayan, at magtatamo ng kaharian sa pamamagitan ng mga daya.
And a despicable one has stood up on his station, and they have not given to him the splendor of the kingdom, and he has come in quietly, and has strengthened the kingdom by flatteries.
22 At sa pamamagitan ng pulutong na huhugos ay mapapalis sila sa harap niya, at mabubuwal; oo, pati ng prinsipe ng tipan.
And the arms of the flood are overflowed from before him, and are broken; and also the leader of the covenant.
23 At pagkatapos ng pakikipagkasundo sa kaniya, siya'y gagawang may karayaan; sapagka't siya'y sasampa, at magiging matibay, na kasama ng isang munting bayan.
And after they join themselves to him, he works deceit, and has increased, and has been strong by a few of the nation.
24 Sa panahon ng katiwasayan darating siya hanggang sa mga pinakamainam na dako ng lalawigan; at kaniyang gagawin ang hindi ginawa ng kaniyang mga magulang, o ng mga magulang ng kaniyang mga magulang; siya'y magbabahagi sa kanila ng huli, at samsam, at kayamanan: oo, siya'y hahaka ng kaniyang mga haka laban sa mga kuta, hanggang sa takdang panahon.
Peaceably even into the fertile places of the province He comes, and he has done that which his fathers did not, nor his fathers’ fathers; prey, and spoil, and substance, he scatters to them, and against fortifications he devises his plans, even for a time.
25 At kaniyang kikilusin ang kaniyang kapangyarihan at ang kaniyang tapang laban sa hari sa timugan na may malaking hukbo; at ang hari sa timugan ay makikipagdigma sa pakikipagbaka na may totoong malaki at makapangyarihang hukbo; nguni't hindi siya tatayo, sapagka't sila'y magsisihaka ng mga panukala laban sa kaniya.
And he stirs up his power and his heart against the king of the south with a great force, and the king of the south stirs himself up to battle with a very great and mighty force, and does not stand, for they devise plans against him,
26 Oo, silang nagsisikain ng kaniyang masarap na pagkain ay siyang magpapahamak sa kaniya, at ang kaniyang hukbo ay mapapalis; at marami ay mabubuwal na patay.
and those eating his portion of food destroy him, and his force overflows, and many wounded have fallen.
27 At tungkol sa dalawang haring ito, ang kanilang mga puso ay magtataglay ng kasamaan, at sila'y mangagsasalita ng mga kabulaanan sa isang dulang: nguni't hindi giginhawa; sapagka't ang wakas ay magiging sa panahong takda pa.
And both of the kings’ hearts [are] to do evil, and at one table they speak lies, and it does not prosper, for yet the end [is] at a time appointed.
28 Kung magkagayo'y babalik siya sa kaniyang lupain na may malaking kayamanan; at ang kaniyang puso ay magiging laban sa banal na tipan; at siya'y gagawa ng kaniyang maibigan, at babalik sa kaniyang sariling lupain.
And he turns back [to] his land with great substance, and his heart [is] against the holy covenant, and he has worked, and turned back to his land.
29 Sa takdang panahon ay babalik siya, at papasok sa timugan; nguni't hindi magiging gaya ng una ang huli.
At the appointed time he turns back, and has come against the south, and it is not as the former, and as the latter.
30 Sapagka't mga sasakyan sa Chittim ay magsisiparoon laban sa kaniya; kaya't siya'y mahahapis, at babalik, at magtataglay ng galit laban sa banal na tipan, at gagawa ng kaniyang maibigan: siya nga'y babalik, at lilingapin yaong nangagpabaya ng banal na tipan.
And ships of Chittim have come in against him, and he has been pained, and has turned back, and has been insolent toward the holy covenant, and has worked, and turned back, and he understands concerning those forsaking the holy covenant.
31 At mga pulutong ay magsisitayo sa kaniyang bahagi, at kanilang lalapastanganin ang santuario, sa makatuwid baga'y ang kuta, at aalisin ang palaging handog na susunugin, at kanilang ilalagay ang kasuklamsuklam na naninira.
And strong ones stand up out of him, and have defiled the sanctuary, the stronghold, and have turned aside the continual [sacrifice], and appointed the desolating abomination.
32 At ang gayon na gumagawa na may kasamaan laban sa tipan, ay mahihikayat niya sa pamamagitan ng mga daya; nguni't ang bayan na nakakakilala ng kanilang dios ay magiging matibay, at gagawa ng kabayanihan.
And those acting wickedly [against] the covenant, he defiles by flatteries; and the people knowing their God are strong, and have worked.
33 At silang marunong sa bayan ay magtuturo sa marami; gayon ma'y mangabubuwal sila sa pamamagitan ng tabak at ng liyab, ng pagkabihag at ng samsam, na maraming araw.
And the teachers of the people give understanding to many; and they have stumbled by sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil—days.
34 Pagka nga sila'y mangabubuwal, sila'y tutulungan ng kaunting tulong; nguni't marami ay magsisipisan sa kanila na may mga daya.
And in their stumbling, they are helped—a little help, and joined to them have been many with flatteries.
35 At ang ilan sa kanila na pantas ay mangabubuwal, upang dalisayin sila, at linisin, at paputiin, hanggang sa panahon ng kawakasan; sapagka't ukol sa panahon pang takda.
And some of the teachers stumble for refining by them, and for purifying, and for making white—until the end of the time, for [it is] yet for a time appointed.
36 At ang hari ay gagawa ng ayon sa kaniyang kalooban; at siya'y magmamalaki, at magpapakataas ng higit kay sa bawa't dios, at magsasalita ng mga kagilagilalas na bagay laban sa Dios ng mga dios; at siya'y giginhawa hanggang sa ang galit ay maganap; sapagka't ang ipinasiya ay gagawin.
And the king has done according to his will, and exalts himself, and magnifies himself against every god, and he speaks wonderful things against the God of gods, and has prospered until the indignation has been completed, for that which is determined has been done.
37 Wawaling bahala niya ang mga dios ng kaniyang mga magulang, o ang nasa man sa mga babae, o pakukundanganan man ang sinomang dios; sapagka't siya'y magmamalaki sa lahat.
And to the God of his fathers he does not attend, nor to the desire of women, indeed, he does not attend to any god, for he magnifies himself against all.
38 Kundi bilang kahalili ay pararangalan niya ang dios ng mga katibayan; at isang dios na hindi nakilala ng kaniyang mga magulang ay kaniyang pararangalan ng ginto, at pilak, at ng mga mahalagang bato at ng mga maligayang bagay.
And to the god of strongholds, on his station, he gives honor; indeed, to a god whom his fathers did not know he gives honor, with gold, and with silver, and with precious stone, and with desirable things.
39 At siya'y magbabagsak ng mga matibay na kuta sa tulong ng ibang dios; sinomang kumilala sa kaniya, mananagana sa kaluwalhatian; at pagpupunuin niya sila sa marami, at kaniyang babahagihin ang lupa sa halaga.
And he has dealt in the fortresses of the strongholds with a strange god whom he has acknowledged; he multiplies honor, and has caused them to rule over many, and the ground he apportions at a price.
40 At sa panahon ng kawakasan ay makikipagkaalit sa kaniya ang hari sa timugan; at ang hari sa hilagaan ay paroroon laban sa kaniya na gaya ng isang ipoipo, na may mga karo, at may mga mangangabayo, at may maraming sasakyan; at kaniyang papasukin ang mga lupain, at aabot at lalagpas.
And at the time of the end, a king of the south pushes himself forward with him, and a king of the north storms against him, with chariot, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he has come into the lands, and has overflowed, and passed over,
41 Siya'y papasok din naman sa maluwalhating lupain, at maraming lupain ay mababagsak; nguni't ang mga ito ay mangaliligtas mula sa kaniyang kamay: ang Edom, at ang Moab, at ang puno ng mga anak ni Ammon.
and has come into the desirable land, and many stumble, and these escape from his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the sons of Ammon.
42 Kaniyang iuunat din naman ang kaniyang kamay sa mga lupain; at ang lupain ng Egipto ay hindi makatatakas.
And he sends forth his hand on the lands, and the land of Egypt is not for an escape;
43 Nguni't siya'y magtataglay ng kapangyarihan sa mga kayamanang ginto at pilak, at sa lahat na mahalagang bagay sa Egipto; at ang mga taga Libia at ang mga taga Etiopia ay susunod sa kaniyang mga hakbang.
and he has ruled over treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the desirable things of Egypt, and Lubim and Cushim [are] at his steps.
44 Nguni't mga balita na mula sa silanganan at mula sa hilagaan ay babagabag sa kaniya; at siya'y lalabas na may malaking kapusukan upang gumiba at lumipol sa marami.
And reports trouble him out of the east and out of the north, and he has gone forth in great fury to destroy, and to devote many to destruction;
45 At kaniyang itatayo ang mga tolda ng kaniyang palasio sa pagitan ng dagat at ng maluwalhating banal na bundok; gayon ma'y darating siya sa kaniyang wakas, at walang tutulong sa kaniya.
and he plants the tents of his palace between the seas and the holy desirable mountain, and has come to his end, and there is no helper to him.”
