Daniel 9
1 Ní ọdún kìn-ín-ní Dariusi ọmọ Ahaswerusi, ẹni tí a bí ní Media, òun ló jẹ ọba lórí ìjọba Babeli.
“In the first year of Darius, son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who has been made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans,
2 Ní ọdún kìn-ín-ní ìjọba rẹ̀, èmi Daniẹli fi iyè sí i láti inú ìwé, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí wòlíì Jeremiah, wá pé, àádọ́rin ọdún ni Jerusalẹmu yóò fi wà ní ahoro.
in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, have understood by scrolls the number of the years (in that a word of YHWH has been to Jeremiah the prophet), concerning the fulfilling of the desolations of Jerusalem—seventy years;
3 Nígbà náà, ni mo yípadà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run, mo bẹ̀ ẹ́ pẹ̀lú àdúrà àti ẹ̀bẹ̀, pẹ̀lú àwẹ̀, aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ àti eérú.
and I set my face toward the Lord God, to seek [by] prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.
4 Mo gbàdúrà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, mo sì jẹ́wọ́ wí pé: “Ìwọ Olúwa, Ọlọ́run tí ó tóbi, tí ó sì ní ẹ̀rù, ẹni tí ń pa májẹ̀mú ìfẹ́ mọ́, pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ó ní ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ àti àwọn tí ó ń pa àwọn òfin rẹ̀ mọ́.
And I pray to my God YHWH, and confess, and say: Ah, now, O Lord God, the great and the fearful, keeping the covenant and the kindness to those loving Him and to those keeping His commands;
5 Àwa ti ṣẹ̀, a sì ti ṣe búburú. Àwa ti hu ìwà búburú, a sì ti ṣe ọ̀tẹ̀, a ti yí padà kúrò nínú àwọn àṣẹ àti àwọn ìlànà rẹ̀.
we have sinned, and done perversely, and done wickedly, and rebelled, to turn aside from Your commands, and from Your judgments:
6 Àwa kò fetí sí àwọn wòlíì ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, ẹni tí ó sọ̀rọ̀ ní orúkọ rẹ sí àwọn ọba wa, àwọn ọmọ-aládé àti àwọn baba wa, àti sí gbogbo ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà.
and we have not listened to Your servants, the prophets, who have spoken in Your Name to our kings, our heads, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 “Olúwa ìwọ ni olódodo, ṣùgbọ́n báyìí ìtìjú dé bá àwọn ènìyàn Juda, àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu àti gbogbo Israẹli ní gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè tí ìwọ ti fọ́n wa ká sí nítorí àìṣòótọ́ ọ wa sí ọ.
To You, O Lord, [is] the righteousness, and to us the shame of face, as [at] this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, in all the lands to where You have driven them, in their trespass that they have trespassed against You.
8 Háà! Olúwa, àwa àti àwọn ọba wa, àwọn ọmọ-aládé, àti àwọn baba wa, ìtìjú dé bá wa nítorí àwa ti dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí ọ.
O Lord, to us [is] the shame of face, to our kings, to our heads, and to our fathers, in that we have sinned against You.
9 Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa ní àánú, ó sì ń dáríjì, bí àwa tilẹ̀ ti ṣe ọ̀tẹ̀ sí i;
To the Lord our God [are] the mercies and the forgivenesses, for we have rebelled against Him,
10 àwa kò gbọ́rọ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, a kò sì pa àwọn òfin rẹ mọ́, èyí tí ó fún wa nípasẹ̀ àwọn wòlíì ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
and have not listened to the voice of our God YHWH, to walk in His laws, that He has set before us by the hand of His servants the prophets;
11 Gbogbo Israẹli ti ṣẹ̀ sí òfin rẹ, wọ́n ti yípadà kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ, wọ́n kọ̀ láti ṣe ìgbọ́ràn sí ọ. “Nígbà náà ni ègún àti ìdájọ́ tí a kọ sílẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìbúra nínú òfin Mose ìránṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run dà sórí i wa, nítorí tí àwa ti sẹ̀ sí ọ.
and all Israel has transgressed Your law, to turn aside so as not to listen to Your voice; and poured on us is the execration, and the oath, that is written in the Law of Moses, servant of God, because we have sinned against Him.
12 Ìwọ ti mú ọ̀rọ̀ tí o sọ sí wa sẹ àti lórí àwọn alákòóso wa, nípa mímú kí ibi ńlá bá wa, irú èyí tí kò tí ì ṣẹlẹ̀ rí lábẹ́ ọ̀run, bí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀ sí Jerusalẹmu yìí.
And He confirms His words that He has spoken against us, and against our judges who have judged us, to bring great calamity on us, in that it has not been done under the whole heavens as it has been done in Jerusalem,
13 Bí a ti kọ ọ́ sínú òfin Mose bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo ibi yìí ti dé bá wa, síbẹ̀ a kò bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún ojúrere Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, nípa yíyí padà kí a kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa kí a sì mọ òtítọ́ rẹ.
as it is written in the Law of Moses, all this evil has come on us, and we have not appeased the face of our God YHWH to turn back from our iniquities, and to act wisely in Your truth.
14 Olúwa kò jáfara láti mú ibi náà wá sórí wa, nítorí olódodo ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa nínú u gbogbo ohun tí ó ń ṣe; síbẹ̀ àwa kò ṣe ìgbọ́ràn sí i.
And YHWH watches for the evil, and brings it on us, for our God YHWH is righteous concerning all His works that He has done, and we have not listened to His voice.
15 “Ní ìsinsin yìí, Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, ẹni tí ó mú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá, pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ agbára, tí ó fún ara rẹ̀ ní orúkọ tí ó wà títí di òní, a ti ṣẹ̀, a sì ti ṣe búburú.
And now, O Lord our God, who has brought forth Your people from the land of Egypt by a strong hand, and makes for Yourself a name as at this day, we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 Olúwa, ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú ìwà òdodo rẹ, yí ìbínú àti ìrunú rẹ padà kúrò ní Jerusalẹmu ìlú u rẹ, òkè mímọ́ rẹ. Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa àti àìṣedéédéé àwọn baba wa ti mú Jerusalẹmu àti ènìyàn rẹ di ẹ̀gàn fún gbogbo àwọn tí ó yí wọn ká.
O Lord, according to all Your righteous acts, please let Your anger and Your fury turn back from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain, for by our sins, and by the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people [are] for a reproach to all our neighbors;
17 “Nísinsin yìí, Ọlọ́run wa, gbọ́ àdúrà àti ẹ̀bẹ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, nítorí i tìrẹ Olúwa, fi ojú àánú wo ibi mímọ́ rẹ tí ó ti dahoro.
and now, listen, O our God, to the prayer of Your servant, and to his supplication, and cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary that [is] desolate, for the Lord’s sake.
18 Tẹ́ etí rẹ sílẹ̀, Ọlọ́run, kí o gbọ́; ya ojú rẹ sílẹ̀, kí o sì wo ìdahoro ìlú tí a ń fi orúkọ rẹ pè. Àwa kò gbé ẹ̀bẹ̀ wa kalẹ̀ níwájú u rẹ nítorí pé a jẹ́ olódodo, bí kò ṣe nítorí àánú ńlá rẹ.
Incline, O my God, Your ear, and hear, open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city on which Your Name is called; for not for our righteous acts are we causing our supplications to fall before You, but for Your mercies that [are] many.
19 Olúwa, fetísílẹ̀! Olúwa, dáríjì! Olúwa, gbọ́ kí o sì ṣe é! Nítorí i tìrẹ, Ọlọ́run mi, má ṣe pẹ́ títí, nítorí ìlú rẹ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ ń jẹ́ orúkọ mọ́ ọ lára.”
O Lord, hear, O Lord, forgive; O Lord, attend and do; do not delay, for Your own sake, O my God, for Your Name is called on Your city, and on Your people.
20 Bí mo ṣe ń sọ̀rọ̀, tí mo sì ń gba àdúrà, tí mo ń jẹ́wọ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi àti ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn Israẹli ènìyàn mi, tí mo sì ń mú ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi tọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi nítorí òkè mímọ́ rẹ.
And while I am speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin, and the sin of my people Israel, and causing my supplication to fall before my God YHWH, for the holy mountain of my God,
21 Bí mo ṣe ń gba àdúrà náà lọ́wọ́, Gabrieli ọkùnrin tí mo rí nínú ìran ìṣáájú, yára kánkán wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi ní àkókò ẹbọ àṣálẹ́.
indeed, while I am speaking in prayer, then that one Gabriel, whom I had seen in vision at the commencement, being caused to fly swiftly, is coming to me at the time of the evening present.
22 Ó jẹ́ kí ó yé mi, ó sì wí fún mi pé, “Daniẹli, mo wá láti jẹ́ kí o mọ̀ kí o sì ní òye.
And he gives understanding, and speaks with me, and says, O Daniel, now I have come forth to cause you to consider understanding wisely;
23 Bí o ṣe bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí nígbà àdúrà, a fún ọ ní ìdáhùn kan, èyí tí mo wá láti sọ fún ọ, nítorí ìwọ jẹ́ àyànfẹ́ gidigidi. Nítorí náà, gba ọ̀rọ̀ náà yẹ̀ wò kí ìran náà sì yé ọ:
at the commencement of your supplications the word has come forth, and I have come to declare [it], for you [are] greatly desired, and understand concerning the matter, and consider concerning the appearance.
24 “Àádọ́rin ọ̀sẹ̀ ni a pàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ àti fún àwọn ìlú mímọ́ rẹ láti parí ìrékọjá, láti fi òpin sí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, láti ṣe ètùtù sí ìwà búburú, láti mú òdodo títí ayé wá, láti ṣe èdìdì ìran àti wòlíì àti láti fi òróró yan Ibi Mímọ́ Jùlọ.
Seventy periods of seven are determined for your people and for your holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in continuous righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the Holy of Holies.
25 “Nítorí náà, mọ èyí pé, láti ìgbà tí a ti gbé ọ̀rọ̀ náà jáde wí pé kí a tún Jerusalẹmu ṣe, kí a sì tún kọ́, títí dé ìgbà ọmọ-aládé, ẹni òróró náà, alákòóso wa yóò fi dé, ó jẹ́ ọ̀sẹ̀ méje àti ọ̀sẹ̀ méjìlélọ́gọ́ta, a ó sì tún ìgboro àti yàrá rẹ̀ mọ, ṣùgbọ́n ní àkókò wàhálà ni.
And you know, and consider wisely, from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem until Messiah the Leader [is] seven periods of seven, and sixty-two periods of seven: the broad place has been built again, and the rampart, even in the distress of the times.
26 Lẹ́yìn ọ̀sẹ̀ méjìlélọ́gọ́ta, a ó ké Ẹni òróró náà kúrò, kò sì ní ní ohun kan. Àwọn ènìyàn ọmọ-aládé náà tí yóò wá ni yóò pa ìlú náà àti ibi mímọ́ run. Òpin yóò dé bí ìkún omi, ogun yóò máa jà títí dé òpin, a sì ti pàṣẹ ìdahoro.
And after the sixty-two periods of seven, Messiah is cut off, but not for Himself, and the people of the leader who is coming destroy the city and the holy place; and its end [is] with a flood, and until the end [is] war, [and] desolations [are] determined.
27 Yóò sì fi ìdí i májẹ̀mú kan múlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ fún ọ̀sẹ̀ kan. Ní àárín ọ̀sẹ̀ ni yóò mú òpin bá ẹbọ àti ọrẹ ẹbọ. Àti lórí apá kan ni yóò dà ìríra tí ó mú ìdahoro wá, títí tí òpin tí a ti pàṣẹ lórí asọnidahoro yóò fi padà fi dé bá a.”
And he has strengthened a covenant with many [for] one period of seven, and [in] the midst of the period of seven he causes sacrifice and present to cease, and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate, even until the consummation, and that which is determined is poured on the desolate one.”
