Daniel 7
1 Sa unang taon ni haring Belsazar ng Babilonia, nagkaroon si Daniel ng panaginip at mga pangitain habang siya ay nakahiga sa kaniyang higaan. Pagkatapos, isinulat niya kung ano ang kaniyang nakita sa panaginip. Isinulat niya ang mga pinakamahalagang kaganapan.
In the first year of Belshazzar, king of Babylon, Daniel, beheld, a dream, and visions of his head upon his bed, —then, the dream, he wrote, the sum of the matters, he told.
2 Ipinaliwanag ni Daniel, “Sa aking pangitain kagabi, nakita ko na pinapagalaw ng apat na hangin ng langit ang malaking dagat.
Daniel spake and said, I was looking, in my vision [which came] with the night, —when, lo! the four winds of the heavens, bursting forth upon the great sea;
3 Lumitaw mula sa dagat ang apat na malalaking hayop, bawat isa ay hindi magkakapareho
and four large wild beasts, coming up out of the sea, —diverse, one from another: —
4 Ang una ay tulad ng isang leon ngunit mayroong mga pakpak ng agila. Habang ako ay nagmamasid, natanggal ang mga pakpak nito at iniangat ito mula sa lupa at pinatayo sa dalawang paa tulad ng tao. Ibinigay rito ang pag-iisip ng isang tao.
The foremost, like a lion, having, the wings of an eagle, —I looked until the wings thereof, were torn out, and it was lifted up from the earth, and, upon its feet, like a man, was it caused to stand, and, the heart of a man, was given to it.
5 At mayroong ikalawang hayop na tulad ng isang oso, nakayuko at mayroon itong tatlong tadyang sa pagitan ng mga ngipin sa bunganga nito. Sinabihan ito na, “Tumayo ka at lamunin ang maraming tao.'
And, lo! another wild beast, a second, resembling a bear, and, on one side, was it raised up, with three ribs in its mouth, between its teeth, —and, thus, were they saying to it, Rise! devour much flesh.
6 Pagkatapos, muli akong tumingin. Mayroon pang isang hayop na kahawig ng isang leopardo. Sa likod nito ay mayroong apat na pakpak na tulad ng mga pakpak ng ibon at mayroon itong apat na ulo. Binigyan ito ng karapatan upang mamahala.
After that, I was looking, and lo! another like a leopard, and it, had four wings of a bird upon its back, —and four heads, had the wild beast, and dominion, was given to it,
7 Pagkatapos nito, nakita ko sa aking panaginip kagabi ang ika-apat na hayop na nakakasindak, nakakatakot at napakalakas. Mayroon itong malaking bakal na ngipin. Lumalamon ito, dumudurog ng mga piraso at tinapak-tapakan ang natira. Kakaiba ito sa iba pang mga hayop at mayroon itong sampung sungay.
After that, I was looking in the visions of the night, when lo! a fourth wild beast, terrible and well-hipped and exceeding strong, and it had, large teeth of iron, it devoured and brake in pieces, and, the residue—with its feet, it trampled down, —and, it, was diverse from all the wild beasts that were before it, and it had, ten horns.
8 Habang pinagmamasdan ko ang mga sungay, tumingin ako at nakita ko ang isa pang sungay na tumubo mula sa kanila, isang maliit na sungay. Tatlo mula sa mga sungay ang pinihit palabas sa kanilang mga ugat. Nakita ko sa sungay na ito ang mga mata na tulad ng mga mata ng tao at isang bibig na nagmamayabang tungkol sa dakilang mga bagay.
I was considering the horns, when lo! another horn, a little one, came up among them, and, three of the former horns, were uprooted from before it, —and lo! eyes, like the eyes of a man, in this horn, and, a mouth, speaking great things.
9 Habang nakatingin ako, inihanda ang mga trono sa lugar nito at naupo sa kaniyang upuan ang Sinaunang mga Araw. Kasing puti ng niyebe ang kaniyang damit at ang buhok sa kaniyang ulo ay tulad ng balahibo ng tupa. Nagliliyab na apoy ang kaniyang trono at nagliliyab na apoy ang mga gulong nito.
I continued looking, until that, thrones, were placed, and, the Ancient of days, took his seat, —whose, garment, like snow, was white, and, the hair of his head, like pure wool, his throne, was flames of fire, his wheels, a burning fire.
10 Isang ilog na apoy ang umaagos palabas sa kaniyang harapan, milyon-milyon ang naglilingkod sa kaniya, at isang daang milyon ang nakatayo sa kaniyang harapan. Nasa pagpupulong ang hukuman at nabuksan ang mga libro.
A stream of fire, was flowing on and issuing forth from before him, a thousand thousand, waited upon him and, ten thousand times ten thousand, before him, stood up, —Judgment, took its seat, and, books, were opened.
11 Patuloy akong tumingin dahil sa mayayabang na mga salitang binanggit ng sungay. Pinanood ko ang hayop habang pinapatay, nawasak ang katawan nito at ibinigay upang sunugin.
I continued looking, then because of the sound of the great words which the horn was speaking, I continued looking, until that the wild beast, was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning of the fire.
12 Para sa mga natitira sa apat na hayop, inalis ang kanilang kapangyarihan ng pamamahala, ngunit pinahaba ang kanilang buhay para sa nalalabing panahon.
As concerning the rest of the beasts, their dominion, was taken away, —but, a lengthening of life, was given to them, until time and season.
13 Sa aking pangitain nang gabing iyon, nakita ko ang isang dumarating kasabay ang mga ulap ng langit tulad ng isang anak ng tao. Lumapit siya sa Sinaunang mga Araw at iniharap siya sa kaniya.
I continued looking in the visions of the night, when lo! with the clouds of the heavens, one like a son of man, was coming, —and, unto the Ancient of days, he approached, and, before him, they brought him near;
14 Ibinigay sa kaniya ang karapatan upang mamuno, ang kaluwalhatian at ang makaharing kapangyarihan upang ang lahat ng mga tao, mga bansa, at mga wika ay dapat maglingkod sa kaniya. Walang hanggan ang kaniyang karapatang mamuno na hindi lilipas at hindi kailanman mawawasak ang kaniyang kaharian.
and, unto him, were given dominion and dignity and kingship, that all peoples, races and tongues, unto him, should do service, —his dominion, was an age-abiding dominion, which should not pass away, and, his kingdom, that which should not be destroyed.
15 Ngunit para sa akin, na si Daniel, nagdadalamhati sa aking kaloob-looban ang aking espiritu at ginagambala ako ng mga pangitain na aking nakita sa aking isipan.
The spirit of, me, Daniel, was grieved in the midst of the sheath, —and, the visions of my head, terrified me.
16 Nilapitan ko ang isa sa kanila na nakatayo roon at hiniling ko sa kaniya na ipakita sa akin ang kahulugan ng mga bagay na ito.
I drew near unto one of them who stood by, and made exact enquiry of him, concerning all this, —so he told me, and, the interpretation of the things, made he known unto me.
17 Ang malalaking hayop na ito, na apat ang bilang, ay apat na haring manggagaling mula sa daigdig.
These great wild beasts, which are four, —are four kings who shall arise out of the earth;
18 Ngunit tatanggapin ng mga taong banal ng Kataas-taasan ang kaharian at aangkinin nila ito magpakailanman.
but the holy ones of the Highest, shall receive the kingdom, —and shall possess the kingdom for the age, yea for the age of ages.
19 At nais ko pang malaman ang tungkol sa ikaapat na hayop, labis itong kakaiba sa mga iba at labis na kakila-kilabot ang bakal na ngipin at ang tansong mga kuko nito. Lumalamon ito, dumudurog ng mga piraso at tinatapakan ang anumang natira.
Then desired I to be sure, concerning the fourth wild beast, which was diverse from all of them, —exceeding terrible, whose, teeth, were iron, and, his claws, of bronze, he devoured, brake in pieces, and, the residue—with his feet, he trampled down;
20 Nais kong malaman ang tungkol sa sampung sungay sa kaniyang ulo at ang tungkol sa ibang sungay na tumubo bago pa mahulog ang tatlong sungay. Nais ko pang malaman ang tungkol sa sungay na mayroong mga mata at tungkol sa bibig na nagyayabang tungkol sa mga dakilang mga bagay na parang mas nakatataas ito sa kaniyang mga kasamahan.
also concerning the ten horns, which were in his head, and the other, which came up, and there fell—from among them that were before it—three, —and this horn which had, eyes, and, a mouth, speaking great things, and, his look, was more proud than his fellows:
21 Habang nakatingin ako, nagtaguyod ng digmaan ang sungay na ito laban sa mga taong banal at tinatalo ang mga ito
I continued looking, when, this horn, made war with the holy ones, —and prevailed against them:
22 hanggang dumating ang Sinaunang mga Araw at ibinigay ang katarungan sa mga taong banal ng Kataas-taasan. At dumating ang panahon na tinanggap ng mga taong banal ang kaharian.
until that the Ancient of Days, came, and, justice, was granted to the holy ones of the Highest, —and, the time, arrived, that the holy ones should possess, the kingdom.
23 Ito ang sinabi ng taong iyon, 'Ngunit para sa ikaapat na hayop, magiging ikaapat na kaharian ito sa daigdig na magiging kakaiba mula sa iba pang mga kaharian. Lalamunin, aapakan at dudurugin nito nang pira-piraso ang buong daigdig.
Thus, he said, The fourth wild beast, is a fourth kingdom which shall be in the earth, which shall be diverse from all the kingdoms, —and shall devour all the earth, and shall trample it down, and break it in pieces.
24 Ngunit para sa sampung sungay, mula sa kahariang ito manggagaling ang sampung hari at isa pa ang lilitaw pagkatapos nila. Magiging kakaiba siya mula sa mga nauna. At masasakop niya ang tatlong hari.
And, the ten horns of that kingdom, are ten kings who will arise, —and, another, will arise after them, and, he, will be diverse from the former ones, and, three kings, will he cast down;
25 Magsasabi siya ng mga salita laban sa Kataas-taasan at aapihin niya ang mga taong banal ng Kataas-taasang Diyos. Susubukan niyang palitan ang mga pagdiriwang at ang kautusan. Maibibigay ang mga bagay na ito sa kaniyang mga kamay sa isang taon, dalawang taon at kalahating taon.
and, words against the Most High, will he speak, and, the holy ones of the Highest, will he afflict, —and will hope to change times and law, and they will be given into his hand, for a season and seasons and the dividing of a season,
26 Ngunit magpupulong ang hukuman at kukunin ang kaniyang makaharing kapangyarihan upang tupukin at wasakin sa huli.
but, Judgment, will take its seat, —and, his dominion, will they take away, to destroy and make disappear unto an end.
27 Maibibigay sa mga taong kabilang sa mga banal na tao ng Kataas-taasan ang kaharian, at ang kapangyarihan, ang mga kadakilaan ng mga kaharian sa ibaba ng buong kalangitan. Walang hanggang kaharian ang kaniyang kaharian, paglilingkuran at susundin siya ng lahat ng iba pang mga kaharian.
And, the kingdom, and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under all the heavens, shall be given to the people of the holy ones of the Highest, —his kingdom, is an age-abiding kingdom, and, all the dominions, unto him, will render service, and show themselves obedient.
28 Narito ang katapusan ng lahat ng bagay. Ngunit para sa akin, na si Daniel, labis na nabahala ang aking isipan at nabago ang itsura ng aking mukha. Ngunit itinago ko ang mga bagay na ito sa aking sarili.”
Hitherto is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, greatly did my thoughts terrify me, and, my bright looks, were changed upon me, but, the matter—in mine own heart, I kept.
