< دَانِيآل 7 >

فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْأُولَى لِبَيْلْشَاصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، رَأَى دَانِيآلُ حُلْمًا وَرُؤَى رَأْسِهِ عَلَى فِرَاشِهِ. حِينَئِذٍ كَتَبَ ٱلْحُلْمَ وَأَخْبَرَ بِرَأْسِ ٱلْكَلَامِ. ١ 1
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions in his mind on his bed. Then he wrote the dream and told the summary of it.
أَجَابَ دَانِيآلُ وَقَالَ: «كُنْتُ أَرَى فِي رُؤْيَايَ لَيْلًا وَإِذَا بِأَرْبَعِ رِيَاحِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ هَجَمَتْ عَلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْكَبِيرِ. ٢ 2
Daniel spoke and said, "I saw in my vision by night, and, look, the four winds of the sky broke forth on the great sea.
وَصَعِدَ مِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ أَرْبَعَةُ حَيَوَانَاتٍ عَظِيمَةٍ، هَذَا مُخَالِفٌ ذَاكَ. ٣ 3
Four great animals came up from the sea, different from one another.
ٱلْأَوَّلُ كَٱلْأَسَدِ وَلَهُ جَنَاحَا نَسْرٍ. وَكُنْتُ أَنْظُرُ حَتَّى ٱنْتَتَفَ جَنَاحَاهُ وَٱنْتَصَبَ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَأُوقِفَ عَلَى رِجْلَيْنِ كَإِنْسَانٍ، وَأُعْطِيَ قَلْبَ إِنْسَانٍ. ٤ 4
The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings. I saw until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand on two feet as a man; and a man's mind was given to it.
وَإِذَا بِحَيَوَانٍ آخَرَ ثَانٍ شَبِيهٍ بِٱلدُّبِّ، فَٱرْتَفَعَ عَلَى جَنْبٍ وَاحِدٍ وَفِي فَمِهِ ثَلَاثُ أَضْلُعٍ بَيْنَ أَسْنَانِهِ، فَقَالُوا لَهُ هَكَذَا: قُمْ كُلْ لَحْمًا كَثِيرًا. ٥ 5
And look, another animal, a second one, like a bear; and it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth. And they said this to it, 'Arise, devour much flesh.'
وَبَعْدَ هَذَا كُنْتُ أَرَى وَإِذَا بِآخَرَ مِثْلِ ٱلنَّمِرِ وَلَهُ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ أَرْبَعَةُ أَجْنِحَةِ طَائِرٍ. وَكَانَ لِلْحَيَوَانِ أَرْبَعَةُ رُؤُوسٍ، وَأُعْطِيَ سُلْطَانًا. ٦ 6
After this I saw, and look, another one, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird. The animal also had four heads; and dominion was given to it.
بَعْدَ هَذَا كُنْتُ أَرَى فِي رُؤَى ٱللَّيْلِ وَإِذَا بِحَيَوَانٍ رَابعٍ هَائِلٍ وَقَوِيٍّ وَشَدِيدٍ جِدًّا، وَلَهُ أَسْنَانٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ كَبِيرَةٌ. أَكَلَ وَسَحَقَ وَدَاسَ ٱلْبَاقِيَ بِرِجْلَيْهِ. وَكَانَ مُخَالِفًا لِكُلِّ ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ ٱلَّذِينَ قَبْلَهُ، وَلَهُ عَشَرَةُ قُرُونٍ. ٧ 7
After this I saw in the night visions, and look, a fourth animal, awesome and powerful, and extremely strong. And it had great iron teeth. It devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped what was left with its feet. And it was diverse from all the animals that were before it; and it had ten horns.
كُنْتُ مُتَأَمِّلًا بِٱلْقُرُونِ، وَإِذَا بِقَرْنٍ آخَرَ صَغِيرٍ طَلَعَ بَيْنَهَا، وَقُلِعَتْ ثَلَاثَةٌ مِنَ ٱلْقُرُونِ ٱلْأُولَى مِنْ قُدَّامِهِ، وَإِذَا بِعُيُونٍ كَعُيُونِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ فِي هَذَا ٱلْقَرْنِ، وَفَمٍ مُتَكَلِّمٍ بِعَظَائِمَ. ٨ 8
I considered the horns, and look, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots. And look, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking arrogant things.
كُنْتُ أَرَى أَنَّهُ وُضِعَتْ عُرُوشٌ، وَجَلَسَ ٱلْقَدِيمُ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. لِبَاسُهُ أَبْيَضُ كَٱلثَّلْجِ، وَشَعْرُ رَأْسِهِ كَٱلصُّوفِ ٱلنَّقِيِّ، وَعَرْشُهُ لَهِيبُ نَارٍ، وَبَكَرَاتُهُ نَارٌ مُتَّقِدَةٌ. ٩ 9
I saw until thrones were placed, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool. His throne was fiery flames, and its wheels burning fire.
نَهْرُ نَارٍ جَرَى وَخَرَجَ مِنْ قُدَّامِهِ. أُلُوفُ أُلُوفٍ تَخْدِمُهُ، وَرَبَوَاتُ رَبَوَاتٍ وُقُوفٌ قُدَّامَهُ. فَجَلَسَ ٱلدِّينُ، وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلْأَسْفَارُ. ١٠ 10
A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him. Thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court sat in judgment, and the books were opened.
كُنْتُ أَنْظُرُ حِينَئِذٍ مِنْ أَجْلِ صَوْتِ ٱلْكَلِمَاتِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ ٱلَّتِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهَا ٱلْقَرْنُ. كُنْتُ أَرَى إِلَى أَنْ قُتِلَ ٱلْحَيَوَانُ وَهَلَكَ جِسْمُهُ وَدُفِعَ لِوَقِيدِ ٱلنَّارِ. ١١ 11
I saw at that time because of the voice of the arrogant words which the horn spoke. I was watching until the animal was killed and its body destroyed and was given to be burned with fire.
أَمَّا بَاقِي ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ فَنُزِعَ عَنْهُمْ سُلْطَانُهُمْ، وَلَكِنْ أُعْطُوا طُولَ حَيَاةٍ إِلَى زَمَانٍ وَوَقْتٍ. ١٢ 12
As for the rest of the animals, their dominion was taken away, yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
«كُنْتُ أَرَى فِي رُؤَى ٱللَّيْلِ وَإِذَا مَعَ سُحُبِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ مِثْلُ ٱبْنِ إِنْسَانٍ أَتَى وَجَاءَ إِلَى ٱلْقَدِيمِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، فَقَرَّبُوهُ قُدَّامَهُ. ١٣ 13
I saw in the night visions, and look, there came with the clouds of the sky one like a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of Days, and they brought him near before him.
فَأُعْطِيَ سُلْطَانًا وَمَجْدًا وَمَلَكُوتًا لِتَتَعَبَّدَ لَهُ كُلُّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ وَٱلْأُمَمِ وَٱلْأَلْسِنَةِ. سُلْطَانُهُ سُلْطَانٌ أَبَدِيٌّ مَا لَنْ يَزُولَ، وَمَلَكُوتُهُ مَا لَا يَنْقَرِضُ. ١٤ 14
There was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
«أَمَّا أَنَا دَانِيآلَ فَحَزِنَتْ رُوحِي فِي وَسَطِ جِسْمِي وَأَفْزَعَتْنِي رُؤَى رَأْسِي. ١٥ 15
As for me, Daniel, my spirit was grieved in the midst of my body, and the visions of my mind troubled me.
فَٱقْتَرَبْتُ إِلَى وَاحِدٍ مِنَ ٱلْوُقُوفِ وَطَلَبْتُ مِنْهُ ٱلْحَقِيقَةَ فِي كُلِّ هَذَا. فَأَخْبَرَنِي وَعَرَّفَنِي تَفْسِيرَ ٱلْأُمُورِ: ١٦ 16
I came near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the true meaning concerning all this. So he told me, and revealed to me the interpretation of these things.
هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ ٱلَّتِي هِيَ أَرْبَعَةٌ هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ مُلُوكٍ يَقُومُونَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. ١٧ 17
These great animals, which are four, are four kings, who shall arise out of the earth.
أَمَّا قِدِّيسُو ٱلْعَلِيِّ فَيَأْخُذُونَ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ وَيَمْتَلِكُونَ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ وَإِلَى أَبَدِ ٱلْآبِدِينَ. ١٨ 18
But the holy ones of the Most High shall receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, forever and ever.
حِينَئِذٍ رُمْتُ ٱلْحَقِيقَةَ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْحَيَوَانِ ٱلرَّابِعِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ مُخَالِفًا لِكُلِّهَا، وَهَائِلًا جِدًّا وَأَسْنَانُهُ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَأَظْفَارُهُ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ، وَقَدْ أَكَلَ وَسَحَقَ وَدَاسَ ٱلْبَاقِيَ بِرِجْلَيْهِ، ١٩ 19
Then I desired to know the true meaning concerning the fourth animal, which was different from all of them, exceedingly terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and its claws of bronze; which devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped what was left with its feet.
وَعَنِ ٱلْقُرُونِ ٱلْعَشَرَةِ ٱلَّتِي بِرَأْسِهِ، وَعَنِ ٱلْآخَرِ ٱلَّذِي طَلَعَ فَسَقَطَتْ قُدَّامَهُ ثَلَاثَةٌ. وَهَذَا ٱلْقَرْنُ لَهُ عُيُونٌ وَفَمٌ مُتَكَلِّمٌ بِعَظَائِمَ وَمَنْظَرُهُ أَشَدُّ مِنْ رُفَقَائِهِ. ٢٠ 20
And concerning the ten horns that were on its head, and the other horn which came up, and before which three fell, even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke arrogant things, whose look was larger than the others.
وَكُنْتُ أَنْظُرُ وَإِذَا هَذَا ٱلْقَرْنُ يُحَارِبُ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ فَغَلَبَهُمْ، ٢١ 21
I saw, and the same horn made war with the holy ones, and prevailed against them,
حَتَّى جَاءَ ٱلْقَدِيمُ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، وَأُعْطِيَ ٱلدِّينُ لِقِدِّيسِيِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ، وَبَلَغَ ٱلْوَقْتُ، فَٱمْتَلَكَ ٱلْقِدِّيسُونَ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ. ٢٢ 22
until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given to the holy ones of the Most High, and the time came that the holy ones possessed the kingdom.
«فَقَالَ هَكَذَا: أَمَّا ٱلْحَيَوَانُ ٱلْرَّابِعُ فَتَكُونُ مَمْلَكَةٌ رَابِعَةٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مُخَالِفَةٌ لِسَائِرِ ٱلْمَمَالِكِ، فَتَأْكُلُ ٱلْأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا وَتَدُوسُهَا وَتَسْحَقُهَا. ٢٣ 23
This he said, 'The fourth animal shall be a fourth kingdom on earth, which shall be different from all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
وَٱلْقُرُونُ ٱلْعَشَرَةُ مِنْ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ هِيَ عَشَرَةُ مُلُوكٍ يَقُومُونَ، وَيَقُومُ بَعْدَهُمْ آخَرُ، وَهُوَ مُخَالِفٌ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ، وَيُذِلُّ ثَلَاثَةَ مُلُوكٍ. ٢٤ 24
As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom shall ten kings arise, and another shall arise after them; and he shall be diverse from the former, and he shall put down three kings.
وَيَتَكَلَّمُ بِكَلَامٍ ضِدَّ ٱلْعَلِيِّ وَيُبْلِي قِدِّيسِي ٱلْعَلِيِّ، وَيَظُنُّ أَنَّهُ يُغَيِّرُ ٱلْأَوْقَاتَ وَٱلسُّنَّةَ، وَيُسَلَّمُونَ لِيَدِهِ إِلَى زَمَانٍ وَأَزْمِنَةٍ وَنِصْفِ زَمَانٍ. ٢٥ 25
He shall speak words against the Most High, and shall oppress the holy ones of the Most High; and he shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given over to him until a time and times and half a time.
فَيَجْلِسُ ٱلدِّينُ وَيَنْزِعُونَ عَنْهُ سُلْطَانَهُ لِيَفْنَوْا وَيَبِيدُوا إِلَى ٱلْمُنْتَهَى. ٢٦ 26
And the court shall sit in judgment, and they shall take away his dominion, consumed and completely destroyed forever.
وَٱلْمَمْلَكَةُ وَٱلسُّلْطَانُ وَعَظَمَةُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ تَحْتَ كُلِّ ٱلسَّمَاءِ تُعْطَى لِشَعْبِ قِدِّيسِي ٱلْعَلِيِّ. مَلَكُوتُهُ مَلَكُوتٌ أَبَدِيٌّ، وَجَمِيعُ ٱلسَّلَاطِينِ إِيَّاهُ يَعْبُدُونَ وَيُطِيعُونَ. ٢٧ 27
The kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the holy ones of the Most High. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.'
إِلَى هُنَا نِهَايَةُ ٱلْأَمْرِ. أَمَّا أَنَا دَانِيآلَ، فَأَفْكَارِي أَفْزَعَتْنِي كَثِيرًا، وَتَغَيَّرَتْ عَلَيَّ هَيْئَتِي، وَحَفِظْتُ ٱلْأَمْرَ فِي قَلْبِي». ٢٨ 28
Here is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts troubled me greatly, and my face turned pale. I kept the matter to myself."
