< دَانِيآل 10 >

فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّالِثَةِ لِكُورَشَ مَلِكِ فَارِسَ كُشِفَ أَمْرٌ لِدَانِيآلَ ٱلَّذِي سُمِّيَ بِٱسْمِ بَلْطَشَاصَّرَ. وَٱلْأَمْرُ حَقٌّ وَٱلْجِهَادُ عَظِيمٌ، وَفَهِمَ ٱلْأَمْرَ وَلَهُ مَعْرِفَةُ ٱلرُّؤْيَا. ١ 1
In the third year of the reign of King Cyrus of Persia, a message was revealed to Daniel (also called Belteshazzar). The message was certain and concerned a great conflict. He understood the message and gained understanding of the vision.
فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أَنَا دَانِيآلَ كُنْتُ نَائِحًا ثَلَاثَةَ أَسَابِيعِ أَيَّامٍ ٢ 2
When this happened, I, Daniel, had been in mourning for three full weeks.
لَمْ آكُلْ طَعَامًا شَهِيًّا وَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ فِي فَمِي لَحْمٌ وَلَا خَمْرٌ، وَلَمْ أَدَّهِنْ حَتَّى تَمَّتْ ثَلَاثَةُ أَسَابِيعِ أَيَّامٍ. ٣ 3
I ate no fine food. No meat or wine passed my lips. I used no perfumed oils until those three weeks were over.
وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعِ وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ، إِذْ كُنْتُ عَلَى جَانِبِ ٱلنَّهْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ هُوَ دِجْلَةُ، ٤ 4
On the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was standing on the bank of the great River Tigris.
رَفَعْتُ وَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا بِرَجُلٍ لَابِسٍ كَتَّانًا، وَحَقْوَاهُ مُتَنَطِّقَانِ بِذَهَبِ أُوفَازَ، ٥ 5
I looked around and saw a man dressed in linen, and around his waist was a belt of pure gold.
وَجِسْمُهُ كَٱلزَّبَرْجَدِ، وَوَجْهُهُ كَمَنْظَرِ ٱلْبَرْقِ، وَعَيْنَاهُ كَمِصْبَاحَيْ نَارٍ، وَذِرَاعَاهُ وَرِجْلَاهُ كَعَيْنِ ٱلنُّحَاسِ ٱلْمَصْقُولِ، وَصَوْتُ كَلَامِهِ كَصَوْتِ جُمْهُورٍ. ٦ 6
His body shone like a jewel; his face was as bright as lightning; his eyes were like blazing torches; his arms and legs gleamed like polished bronze; and his voice sounded like the roar of a crowd.
فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَا دَانِيآلُ ٱلرُّؤْيَا وَحْدِي، وَٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعِي لَمْ يَرَوْا ٱلرُّؤْيَا، لَكِنْ وَقَعَ عَلَيْهِمِ ٱرْتِعَادٌ عَظِيمٌ، فَهَرَبُوا لِيَخْتَبِئُوا. ٧ 7
I, Daniel, was the only one to see this vision—the others with me did not see the vision, but they suddenly felt very frightened and ran away to hide themselves.
فَبَقِيتُ أَنَا وَحْدِي، وَرَأَيْتُ هَذِهِ ٱلرُّؤْيَا ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ. وَلَمْ تَبْقَ فِيَّ قُوَّةٌ، وَنَضَارَتِي تَحَوَّلَتْ فِيَّ إِلَى فَسَادٍ، وَلَمْ أَضْبِطْ قُوَّةً. ٨ 8
I was left alone to see this wonderful vision. My strength drained away, and my face turned pale as death. I didn't have an ounce of strength left.
وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ كَلَامِهِ. وَلَمَّا سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ كَلَامِهِ كُنْتُ مُسَبَّخًا عَلَى وَجْهِي، وَوَجْهِي إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٩ 9
I heard him speaking, and when I heard his voice I lost consciousness and I lay face down on the ground.
وَإِذَا بِيَدٍ لَمَسَتْنِي وَأَقَامَتْنِي مُرْتَجِفًا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيَّ وَعَلَى كَفَّيْ يَدَيَّ. ١٠ 10
Then a hand touched me and lifted me onto my hands and knees.
وَقَالَ لِي: «يَا دَانِيآلُ، أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْمَحْبُوبُ ٱفْهَمِ ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي أُكَلِّمُكَ بِهِ، وَقُمْ عَلَى مَقَامِكَ لِأَنِّي ٱلْآنَ أُرْسِلْتُ إِلَيْكَ». وَلَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ مَعِي بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ قُمْتُ مُرْتَعِدًا. ١١ 11
He said to me, “Daniel, God loves you very much. Pay attention to what I'm telling you. Stand up, because I have been sent to you.” When he told me this I stood up, trembling.
فَقَالَ لِي: «لَا تَخَفْ يَا دَانِيآلُ، لِأَنَّهُ مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ جَعَلْتَ قَلْبَكَ لِلْفَهْمِ وَلِإِذْلَالِ نَفْسِكَ قُدَّامَ إِلَهِكَ، سُمِعَ كَلَامُكَ، وَأَنَا أَتَيْتُ لِأَجْلِ كَلَامِكَ. ١٢ 12
“Don't be afraid, Daniel,” he said. “From the first day you concentrated on trying to understand this, and to humble yourself before God, your prayer was heard, and I have come to answer you.
وَرَئِيسُ مَمْلَكَةِ فَارِسَ وَقَفَ مُقَابِلِي وَاحِدًا وَعِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا، وَهُوَذَا مِيخَائِيلُ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ جَاءَ لِإِعَانَتِي، وَأَنَا أُبْقِيتُ هُنَاكَ عِنْدَ مُلُوكِ فَارِسَ. ١٣ 13
But the prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed me for twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was being detained there by the kings of Persia.
وَجِئْتُ لِأُفْهِمَكَ مَا يُصِيبُ شَعْبَكَ فِي ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْأَخِيرَةِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرُّؤْيَا إِلَى أَيَّامٍ بَعْدُ». ١٤ 14
Now I've come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the last days, for the vision is about a time in the future.”
فَلَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ مَعِي بِمِثْلِ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ جَعَلْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَصَمَتُّ. ١٥ 15
As he told me this I remained there with my face to the ground and couldn't say a word.
وَهُوَذَا كَشِبْهِ بَنِي آدَمَ لَمَسَ شَفَتَيَّ، فَفَتَحْتُ فَمِي وَتَكَلَّمْتُ وَقُلْتُ لِلْوَاقِفِ أَمَامِي: «يَا سَيِّدِي، بِٱلرُّؤْيَا ٱنْقَلَبَتْ عَلَيَّ أَوْجَاعِي فَمَا ضَبَطْتُ قُوَّةً. ١٦ 16
Then the one who looked like a human being touched my lips and I was able to speak. I told the one standing in front of me, “My lord, since I saw the vision I've been in agony and I feel really weak.
فَكَيْفَ يَسْتَطِيعُ عَبْدُ سَيِّدِي هَذَا أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ مَعَ سَيِّدِي هَذَا وَأَنَا فَحَالًا، لَمْ تَثْبُتْ فِيَّ قُوَّةٌ وَلَمْ تَبْقَ فِيَّ نَسَمَةٌ؟». ١٧ 17
How can I, your servant, speak to you, my lord? I have no strength, and I can hardly breathe.”
فَعَادَ وَلَمَسَنِي كَمَنْظَرِ إِنْسَانٍ وَقَوَّانِي، ١٨ 18
Once again the one who looked like a human being touched me and restored my strength.
وَقَالَ: «لَا تَخَفْ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْمَحْبُوبُ. سَلَامٌ لَكَ. تَشَدَّدْ. تَقَوَّ». وَلَمَّا كَلَّمَنِي تَقَوَّيْتُ وَقُلْتُ: «لِيَتَكَلَّمْ سَيِّدِي لِأَنَّكَ قَوَّيْتَنِي». ١٩ 19
“Don't be afraid; God loves you very much. May you have peace! Be strong! Have courage!” As he spoke to me, I became stronger and I said, “My lord, speak to me, for you have strengthened me.”
فَقَالَ: «هَلْ عَرَفْتَ لِمَاذَا جِئْتُ إِلَيْكَ؟ فَٱلْآنَ أَرْجِعُ وَأُحَارِبُ رَئِيسَ فَارِسَ. فَإِذَا خَرَجْتُ هُوَذَا رَئِيسُ ٱلْيُونَانِ يَأْتِي. ٢٠ 20
“Do you know why I've come to you?” he asked. “Shortly I will have to go back and fight the prince of Persia, and after that the prince of Greece will come.
وَلَكِنِّي أُخْبِرُكَ بِٱلْمَرْسُومِ فِي كِتَابِ ٱلْحَقِّ. وَلَا أَحَدٌ يَتَمَسَّكُ مَعِي عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ إِلَّا مِيخَائِيلُ رَئِيسُكُمْ. ٢١ 21
But before that I will tell you what is written down in the Book of Truth. No one helps me fight against these princes except Michael your prince.
