Daniel 11
1 Ní ọdún kìn-ín-ní Dariusi ará Media, mo dúró láti tì í lẹ́yìn àti láti dáàbò bò ó.)
“And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, my standing [is] for a strengthener, and for a stronghold to him;
2 “Ní ìsinsin yìí, mo sọ òtítọ́ fún ọ ọba mẹ́ta yóò dìde sí i ní Persia, àti ẹ̀kẹrin tí yóò jẹ́ ọlọ́rọ̀ ju gbogbo wọn lọ. Tí ó bá ti di alágbára nípa ọrọ̀ rẹ̀, yóò sì ru gbogbo wọn sókè lòdì sí ìjọba Giriki.
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 Nígbà náà ni ọba alágbára kan yóò fi ara hàn, yóò ṣe àkóso pẹ̀lú agbára ńlá, yóò sì ṣe bí ó ti wù ú.
And a mighty king has stood, and he has ruled a great dominion, and has done according to his will;
4 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó bá fi ara hàn tán, ìjọba rẹ̀ yóò fọ́, yóò sì pín sí mẹ́rin ní orígun mẹ́rẹ̀ẹ̀rin ayé, ìjọba náà kò sì ṣọ́wọ́ àwọn ìran rẹ̀ tàbí kí ó ní agbára tí ó ń lò tẹ́lẹ̀, nítorí, a ó fa ìjọba rẹ̀ tu a ó sì fi fún àwọn mìíràn.
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 “Ọba ìhà gúúsù yóò di alágbára ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀kan lára àwọn aláṣẹ rẹ̀ yóò di alágbára jù ú lọ, yóò sì ṣe àkóso ìjọba rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú agbára ńlá.
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 Lẹ́yìn ọdún púpọ̀ wọn yóò dá májẹ̀mú àlàáfíà, ọmọbìnrin ọba gúúsù yóò lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba àríwá láti bá a dá májẹ̀mú àlàáfíà, ṣùgbọ́n òun kì yóò lè di agbára apá a rẹ̀ mú, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni òun kì yóò lè dádúró, ṣùgbọ́n a ó tẹrí i rẹ̀ ba àti àwọn tí ó mú un wá, àti ọmọ tí ó bí, àti ẹni tí ó ń mu lọ́kàn le ní gbogbo àkókò wọ̀nyí.
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 “Ọ̀kan lára àwọn ìdílé e rẹ̀, ọmọbìnrin ọba gúúsù yóò dìde láti gba ipò o rẹ̀. Yóò sì kọlu ogun ọba àríwá, yóò sì wó odi alágbára; yóò bá wọn jà yóò sì borí.
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 Yóò gba òrìṣà wọn, ère dídá àti ohun èlò oníye lórí ti fàdákà àti ti wúrà, yóò sì kó wọn lọ sí Ejibiti. Fún ọdún díẹ̀ yóò fi ọba àríwá lọ́rùn sílẹ̀.
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 Nígbà náà, ni ọba àríwá yóò gbógun ti ilẹ̀ ọba, gúúsù, ṣùgbọ́n yóò padà sí Orílẹ̀-èdè, òun fúnra rẹ̀.
And the king of the south has come into the kingdom, and turned back to his own land;
10 Àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò múra ogun wọn yóò kó ogun ńlá jọ, èyí tí a ó gbá lọ bí àgbàrá omi ńlá, yóò sì gbá a lọ títí dé ìlú olódi rẹ̀.
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 “Nígbà náà ni ọba gúúsù yóò jáde pẹ̀lú ìbínú, yóò sì bá ọba àríwá jà, ẹni tí yóò kó ọmọ-ogun púpọ̀ jọ, ṣùgbọ́n ọba gúúsù yóò borí i wọn.
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 Nígbà tí a bá kó ogun náà lọ, ọba gúúsù yóò kún fún agbára, yóò sì pa ẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún ní ìpakúpa síbẹ̀ kì yóò ṣẹ́gun.
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 Nítorí ọba àríwá yóò lọ kó ogun mìíràn jọ, tí ó pọ̀ ju ti àkọ́kọ́ lẹ́yìn ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọdún, yóò jáde pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ogun tí ó ti dira ogun fún dáradára.
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 “Ní àkókò ìgbà náà, ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ yóò dìde sí ọba gúúsù. Àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀ nínú àwọn ènìyàn an rẹ̀ yóò ṣọ̀tẹ̀ ní ìmúṣẹ ìran náà, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kì yóò borí.
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 Nígbà náà ni ọba àríwá yóò wá yóò sì gbé ogun tì í, yóò sì kó ìlú olódi. Ogun ọba gúúsù kò ní ní agbára láti kọjú ìjà sí i; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ogun tó dára jù kò ní ní agbára láti dúró.
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 Ẹni tí ó gbóguntì í yóò máa ṣe bí ó ti wù ú, kò sì ṣí ẹni tí yóò le è dojúkọ ọ́. Yóò sì fún ara rẹ̀ ní ibùjókòó ní ilẹ̀ tí ó dára, yóò sì ní agbára láti bà á jẹ́.
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 Yóò pinnu láti wá pẹ̀lú agbára ìjọba rẹ̀, yóò sì ní májẹ̀mú àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú ọba gúúsù yóò sì fi ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ fún un láti fẹ́ ẹ ní ìyàwó nítorí kí ó lè gba ìjọba, ṣùgbọ́n ète rẹ̀ yìí kì yóò dúró tàbí ṣe ìrànlọ́wọ́ fún un.
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 Nígbà náà ni yóò yí ara padà sí ilẹ̀ etí Òkun, yóò mú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n aláṣẹ kan yóò mú òpin bá àfojúdi rẹ̀, yóò sì yí àfojúdi rẹ̀ padà sí orí rẹ̀.
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 Lẹ́yìn èyí, yóò sì yí padà sí ìlú olódi ti orílẹ̀-èdè òun fúnra rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n yóò kọsẹ̀ yóò sì ṣubú, a kì yóò sì rí i mọ́.
And he turns back his face to the strongholds of his land, and has stumbled and fallen, and is not found.
20 “Arọ́pò rẹ̀ yóò rán agbowó orí kan jáde láti fi ìdí ipò ọlá ọba múlẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n ní ìwọ̀n ọdún díẹ̀, a ó pa á run, kì yóò jẹ́ nípa ìbínú tàbí nínú ogun.
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 “Ẹni tí kò níláárí kan yóò rọ́pò rẹ̀, ẹni tí a kò tí ì fi ọlá ọba fún rí. Yóò sì gbógun sí ìjọba nígbà tí ọkàn àwọn ènìyàn balẹ̀ láìbẹ̀rù, yóò sì gbà á pẹ̀lú àrékérekè.
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 Nígbà náà, ni a ó gbà ogunlọ́gọ̀ ogun kúrò níwájú u rẹ̀, pẹ̀lú òun àti ọmọ-aládé ti májẹ̀mú náà ni a ó parun.
And the arms of the flood are overflowed from before him, and are broken; and also the leader of the covenant.
23 Lẹ́yìn tí ó wá ṣe ìpinnu pẹ̀lú u rẹ̀, yóò hùwà ẹ̀tàn, pẹ̀lú ìwọ̀nba ènìyàn kékeré ni yóò gba ìjọba.
And after they join themselves to him, he works deceit, and has increased, and has been strong by a few of the nation.
24 Nígbà tí àwọn agbègbè tí ó lọ́rọ̀ gidigidi wà láìbẹ̀rù ni yóò gbóguntì wọ́n, yóò ṣe ohun tí baba rẹ̀ tàbí baba ńlá rẹ̀ kò ṣe rí, yóò pín ìkógun ẹrù àti ọrọ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ lẹ́yìn in rẹ̀. Yóò pète àti bi àwọn ìlú olódi ṣubú, ṣùgbọ́n fún ìgbà díẹ̀ ni.
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 “Pẹ̀lú ogun púpọ̀, yóò sì ru agbára rẹ̀ àti ìgboyà rẹ̀ sókè sí ọba gúúsù. Ọba gúúsù yóò dìde ogun pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọmọ-ogun tí ó lágbára gidigidi, ṣùgbọ́n kò ní le è dúró, nítorí ọ̀tẹ̀ tí ó gbèrò sí i.
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 Àwọn tí ó jẹ nínú oúnjẹ ọba yóò gbìyànjú láti parun, a ó gbá ogun rẹ̀ dànù, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ni yóò ṣubú sí ogun.
and those eating his portion of food destroy him, and his force overflows, and many wounded have fallen.
27 Àwọn ọba méjèèjì, ọkàn wọn tẹ̀ sí búburú, wọn yóò jókòó lórí tábìlì kan, wọn yóò máa parọ́ sí ara wọn, ṣùgbọ́n kò ní yọrí sí nǹkan kan nítorí òpin yóò wá ní àsìkò tí a yàn.
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 Ọba àríwá yóò padà sí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọrọ̀ púpọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ọkàn rẹ̀ yóò lòdì sí májẹ̀mú mímọ́, yóò sì ṣiṣẹ́ lòdì sí i, yóò sì padà sí orílẹ̀-èdè òun fúnra rẹ̀.
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 “Ní àsìkò tí a yàn, yóò gbógun sí gúúsù lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, ṣùgbọ́n ní ìgbà yí àyọríṣí yóò yàtọ̀ sí ti ìṣáájú.
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 Nítorí pé, ọkọ̀ ojú omi àwọn ilẹ̀ etídò ìwọ̀-oòrùn yóò takò ó, ọkàn rẹ̀ yóò sì pami. Nígbà náà, ni yóò padà, yóò sì bínú sí májẹ̀mú mímọ́, yóò sì padà, yóò sì fi ojúrere hàn sí àwọn tí ó kọ májẹ̀mú mímọ́ náà.
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 “Agbára ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ yóò dìde láti ba ohun mímọ́ ilé olódi tẹmpili jẹ́, yóò sì pa ẹbọ ojoojúmọ́ rẹ́. Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò gbé ìríra tí ó fa ìsọdahoro kalẹ̀.
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 Pẹ̀lú irú àwọn tí ń ṣe búburú sí májẹ̀mú ní yóò fi ọ̀rọ̀ ìpọ́nni mú ṣọ̀tẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n, àwọn tí ó mọ Ọlọ́run wọn yóò mú ọkàn le. Wọn yóò sì máa ṣe iṣẹ́ agbára.
And those acting wickedly [against] the covenant, he defiles by flatteries; and the people knowing their God are strong, and have worked.
33 “Àwọn tí ó mòye yóò máa kọ́ ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n fún ìgbà díẹ̀, wọn yóò máa ṣubú nípa idà tàbí kí a jó wọn tàbí ìgbèkùn tàbí nípa ìkógun.
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 Nígbà tí wọ́n bá ṣubú, wọn yóò rí ìrànlọ́wọ́ díẹ̀, ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn tó ṣe aláìṣòótọ́ yóò sì darapọ̀ mọ́ wọn.
And in their stumbling, they are helped—a little help, and joined to them have been many with flatteries.
35 Lára àwọn tí ó mòye yóò kọsẹ̀, nítorí kí a ba à tún wọn ṣe, wọ́n di mímọ́ àti aláìlábàwọ́n títí di ìgbà ìkẹyìn nítorí yóò sì wá ní àkókò tí a yàn.
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 “Ọba yóò ṣe bí ó ti wù ú yóò sì gbé ara rẹ̀ ga, ju gbogbo òrìṣà lọ, yóò máa sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ tí kò-ṣe-é-gbọ́-létí sí Ọlọ́run àwọn Ọlọ́run, yóò sì máa yege títí àkókò ìbínú yóò fi parí, nítorí ohun tí a ti pinnu yóò ṣẹlẹ̀.
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 Òun kò ní ka òrìṣà àwọn baba rẹ̀ sí tàbí èyí tí àwọn fẹ́, òun kò ní ka nǹkan kan sí, ṣùgbọ́n yóò gbé ara rẹ̀ ga ju gbogbo wọn lọ.
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 Ṣùgbọ́n dípò wọn, yóò bu ọlá fún òrìṣà àwọn ìlú olódi: òrìṣà tí àwọn baba rẹ̀ kò mọ̀ ni yóò bu ọlá fún pẹ̀lú wúrà àti fàdákà, pẹ̀lú òkúta iyebíye àti ẹ̀bùn tí ó lówó lórí.
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 Yóò kọlu àwọn ìlú olódi tí ó lágbára pẹ̀lú ìrànlọ́wọ́ òrìṣà àjèjì, yóò sì bu ọláńlá fún ẹni tí ó jẹ́wọ́ rẹ̀. Yóò mú wọn ṣe alákòóso lórí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn, yóò sì pín ilẹ̀ náà fún wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí èrè.
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 “Ní ìgbà ìkẹyìn, ọba gúúsù yóò gbé ogun de sí i, ọba àríwá yóò sì jáde bí ìjì láti kọlù ú pẹ̀lú u kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti ẹlẹ́ṣin àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọkọ̀ ojú omi. Yóò gbógun wọ orílẹ̀-èdè púpọ̀, yóò sì bo wọn mọ́lẹ̀ bí ìkún omi.
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 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni yóò sì tún gbógun ti ilẹ̀ ológo náà pẹ̀lú, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè yóò ṣubú, ṣùgbọ́n Edomu, Moabu àti àwọn olórí Ammoni yóò bọ́ lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀.
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 Yóò lo agbára rẹ̀ lórí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè; Ejibiti kì yóò là.
And he sends forth his hand on the lands, and the land of Egypt is not for an escape;
43 Yóò gba àkóso ìṣúra wúrà àti fàdákà àti gbogbo ọrọ̀ Ejibiti, pẹ̀lú ti Libia àti Kuṣi nígbà tí ó mú wọn tẹríba.
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 Ṣùgbọ́n ìròyìn láti ìlà-oòrùn àti láti ìwọ̀-oòrùn yóò mú ìdáríjì bá a, yóò sì fi ìbínú ńlá jáde lọ láti parun, àti láti pa ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ run pátápátá.
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 Yóò sì pàgọ́ ọ rẹ̀ láàrín Òkun kọjú sí àárín òkè mímọ́ ológo. Síbẹ̀ yóò wá sí òpin rẹ̀, ẹnìkan kò ní ràn án lọ́wọ́.
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.”
