Daniel 11
1 “And so, from the first year of Darius the Mede, I stood firm, so that he might be reinforced and strengthened.
Ego autem ab anno primo Darii Medi stabam ut confortaretur et roboraretur
2 And now I will announce to you the truth. Behold, up to a certain point, three kings will stand in Persia, and the fourth will be exceedingly enriched in power above them all. And when he has grown strong by his resources, he will stir up all against the kingdom of Greece.
Et nunc veritatem annunciabo tibi Ecce adhuc tres reges stabunt in Perside et quartus ditabitur opibus nimiis super omnes et cum invaluerit divitiis suis concitabit omnes adversum regnum Graeciae
3 But there will rise up a strong king, and he will rule with great power, and he will do what he pleases.
Surget vero rex fortis et dominabitur potestate multa et faciet quod placuerit ei
4 And when he has been firmly established, his kingdom will be shattered and will be divided towards the four winds of the heaven, but not to his posterity, nor according to his power with which he ruled. For his kingdom will be torn to pieces, even for the outsiders who have been expelled from these.
Et cum steterit conteretur regnum eius et dividetur in quattuor ventos caeli sed non in posteros eius neque secundum potentiam illius qua dominatus est lacerabitur enim regnum eius etiam in externos exceptis his
5 And the king of the South will be reinforced, yet one of his leaders will prevail over him, and he will rule with riches, for great is his domain.
Et confortabitur rex Austri et de principibus eius praevalebit super eum et dominabitur ditione multa enim dominatio eius
6 And after the end of years, they will form a federation, and the daughter of the king of the South will come to the king of the North to make friendship, but she will not obtain the strength of arms, neither will her offspring stand firm, and she will be handed over, along with those who brought her, her young men, and those who comforted her in these times.
Et post finem annorum foederabuntur filiaque regis Austri veniet ad regem Aquilonis facere amicitiam et non obtinebit fortitudinem brachii nec stabit semen eius et tradetur ipsa et qui adduxerunt eam adolescentes eius et qui confortabant eam in temporibus
7 And a transplant from the germination of her roots will stand up, and he will come with an army, and will enter into the province of the king of the North, and he will abuse them, and will hold it fast.
Et stabit de germine radicum eius plantatio et veniet cum exercitu et ingredietur provinciam regis Aquilonis et abutetur eis et obtinebit
8 And, in addition, he will carry away captive into Egypt their gods, and their graven images, and likewise their precious vessels of gold and silver. He will prevail against the king of the North.
Insuper et deos eorum et sculptilia vasa quoque pretiosa argenti et auri captiva ducet in Aegyptum ipse praevalebit adversus regem Aquilonis
9 And the king of the South will enter into the kingdom, and will return to his own land.
Et intrabit in regnum rex Austri et revertetur ad terram suam
10 But his sons will be challenged, and they will assemble a multitude of very many forces. And he will arrive rushing and overflowing. And he will be turned back, and he will be enraged, and he will join the battle in his redness.
Filii autem eius provocabuntur et congregabunt multitudinem exercituum plurimorum et veniet properans et inundans et revertetur et concitabitur et congredietur cum robere eius
11 And the king of the South, having being challenged, will go forth and will fight against the king of the North, and he will prepare an exceedingly great multitude, and a multitude will be given into his hand.
Et provocatus rex Austri egredietur et pugnabit adversus regem Aquilonis et praeparabit multitudinem nimiam et dabitur multitudo in manu eius
12 And he will seize a multitude, and his heart will be exalted, and he will cast down many thousands, but he will not prevail.
Et capiet multitudinem et exaltabitur cor eius et deiiciet multa millia sed non praevalebit
13 For the king of the North will change strategy and will prepare a multitude much greater than before, and at the end of times and years, he will rush forward with a great army and exceedingly great resources.
Convertetur enim rex Aquilonis et praeparabit multitudinem multo maiorem quam prius et in fine temporum annorumque veniet properans cum exercitu magno et opibus nimiis
14 And in those times, many will rise up against the king of the South. And likewise the sons of the deceivers among your people will extol themselves, so as to fulfill the vision, and they will collapse.
Et in temporibus illis multi consurgent adversus regem Austri filii quoque praevaricatorum populi tui extollentur ut impleant visionem et corruent
15 And the king of the North will arrive and will transport siege works, and he will seize the most fortified cities. And the arms of the South will not withstand him, and his elect will rise up to resist, but the strength will not.
Et venit rex Aquilonis et comportabit aggerem et capiet urbes munitissimas et brachia Austri non sustinebunt et consurgent electi eius ad resistendum et non erit fortitudo
16 And when he arrives, he will do just as he pleases, and there will be none who stand against his face. And he will stand in the illustrious land, and it will be consumed by his hand.
Et faciet veniens super eum iuxta placitum suum et non erit qui stet contra faciem eius et stabit in terra inclyta et consumetur in manu eius
17 And he will set his face to strive to hold his entire kingdom, and he will make fair conditions with him. And he will give him a daughter among women, so as to overthrow it. But she will not stand, neither will she be for him.
Et ponet faciem suam ut veniat ad tenendum universum regnum eius et recta faciet cum eo et filiam feminarum dabit ei ut evertat illud et non stabit nec illius erit
18 And he will turn his face towards the islands, and he will seize many. And he will cause the leader of his reproach to cease, and his reproach will be turned around for him.
Et convertet faciem suam ad insulas et capiet multas et cessare faciet principem opprobrii sui et opprobrium eius convertetur in eum
19 And he will turn his face to the empire of his own land, and he will strike, and will overthrow, but he will not succeed.
Et convertet faciem suam ad imperium terrae suae et impinget et corruet et non invenietur
20 And there will stand up in his place one who is most worthless and unworthy of kingly honor. And in a short time, he will be worn out, but not in fury, nor in battle.
Et stabit in loco eius vilissimus et indignus decore regio et in paucis diebus conteretur non in furore nec in praelio
21 And there will stand up in his place the despicable one, and he will not be assigned the honor of a king. And he will arrive in secret, and he will obtain the kingdom by deceitfulness.
Et stabit in loco eius despectus et non tribuetur ei honor regius et veniet clam et obtinebit regnum in fraudulentia
22 And the arms of the fighting will be assaulted before his face and will be shattered, and, in addition, the leader of the federation.
Et brachia pugnantis expugnabuntur a facie eius et conterentur insuper et dux foederis
23 And, after making friends, he will trick him, and he will go up and will overcome with a small people.
Et post amicitias cum eo faciet dolum et ascendet et superabit in modico populo
24 And he will enter into rich and resourceful cities, and he will do what his fathers never did, nor his fathers’ fathers. He will scatter their spoils, and their prey, and their riches, and will form a plan against the most steadfast, and this until a time.
Et abundantes et uberes urbes ingredietur et faciet quae non fecerunt patres eius et patres patrum eius rapinas et praedam et divinitas eorum dissipabit et contra firmissimas cogitationes inibit et hoc usque ad tempus
25 And his strength and his heart will be enraged against the king of the South with a great army. And the king of the South will be provoked into going to war by having many allies and exceedingly good circumstances, and yet these will not stand, for they will form plans against him.
Et concitabitur fortitudo eius et cor eius adversum regem Austri in exercitu magno et rex Austri provocabitur ad bellum multis auxiliis et fortibus nimis et non stabunt quia inibunt adversus eum consilia
26 And those who eat bread with him will crush him, and his army will be suppressed, and very many will die, having been executed.
Et comedentes panem cum eo conterent illum exercitusque eius opprimetur et cadent interfecti plurimi
27 And the heart of two kings will be similar, to do harm, and they will speak lies at one table, but they will not succeed, because as yet the end is for another time.
Duorum quoque regnum cor erit ut malefaciant et ad mensam unam mendacium loquentur et non proficient quia adhuc finis in aliud tempus
28 And he will return to his land with many resources. And his heart will be against the holy testament, and he will act, and he will return to his own land.
Et revertetur in terram suam cum opibus multis et cor eius adversum testamentum sanctum et faciet et revertetur in terram suam
29 At the appointed time, he will return, and he will approach the South, but the latter time will not be like the former.
Statuto tempore revertetur et veniet ad Austrum et non erit priori simile novissimum
30 And the Greek warships and the Romans will come upon him, and he will be pierced, and will retreat, and will have scorn against the testament of the sanctuary, and he will act. And he will return and will consult their adversaries, who have forsaken the covenant of the sanctuary.
Et veniet super eum Trieres et Romani et percutietur et revertetur et indignabitur contra testamentum sanctuarii et faciet reverteturque et cogitabit adversum eos qui dereliquerunt testamentum sanctuarii
31 And arms will take his side, and they will pollute the sanctuary of the strength, and they will take away the continual sacrifice and will replace it with the abomination of desolation.
Et brachia ex eo stabunt et polluent sanctuarium fortitudinis et auferent iuge sacrificium et dabunt abominationem in desolationem
32 And the impious within the testament will imitate deceitfully, but the people, knowing their God, will persevere and will act.
Et impii in testamentum simulabunt fraudulenter populus autem sciens Deum suum obtinebit et faciet
33 And the teachers among the people will teach many, but they will be ruined by the sword, and by fire, and by captivity, and by assaults for many days.
Et docti in populo docebunt plurimos et ruent in gladio et in flamma et in captivitate et in rapina dierum
34 And when they have fallen, they will be supported with a little help, but many will apply to them deceitfully.
Cumque corruerint sublevabuntur auxilio parvulo et applicabuntur eis plurimi fraudulenter
35 And some of the learned will be ruined, that they may be kindled and chosen and purified, up to the predetermined time, because there will be still another time.
Et de eruditis ruent ut conflentur et eligantur et dealbentur usque ad tempus praefinitum quia adhuc aliud tempus erit
36 And the king will act according to his will, and he will be lifted up and will be extolled against every god. And he will speak great things against the God of gods, and he will control, until the passion is completed. Once accomplished, the limit is reached with certainty.
Et faciet iuxta voluntatem suam rex et elevabitur et magnificabitur adversus omnem deum et adversus Deum deorum loquetur magnifica et dirigetur donec compleatur iracundia perpetrata quippe est definitio
37 And he will give no thought to the God of his fathers, and he will be in the desire of women, and he will not attend to any gods, because he will rise up against all things.
Et Deum patrum suorum non reputabit et erit in concupiscentiis feminarum nec quemquam deorum curabit quia adversum universa consurget
38 But he will do homage to the god Maozim in his place, and, a god whom his fathers did not know, he will worship with gold, and silver, and precious stones, and costly things.
Deum autem Maozim in loco suo venerabitur et Deum quem ignoraverunt patres eius colet auro et argento et lapide pretioso rebusque pretiosis
39 And he will act to reinforce Maozim with an alien god, of whom he has become aware, and he will increase their glory, and will give them power over many, and he will distribute land for free.
Et faciet ut muniat Maozim cum Deo alieno quem cognovit et multiplicabit gloriam et dabit eis potestatem in multis et terram dividet gratuito
40 And, at the predetermined time, the king of the South will fight against him, and the king of the North will come against him like a tempest, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with a great fleet, and he will enter into the lands, and will crush and pass through.
Et in tempore praefinito praeliabitur adversus eum rex Austri et quasi tempestas veniet contra illum rex Aquilonis in curribus et in equitibus et in classe magna et ingredietur terras et conteret et pertransiet
41 And he will enter into the glorious land, and many will fall. But only these will be saved from his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the first part of the sons of Ammon.
Et introibit in terram gloriosam et multae corruent hae autem solae salvabuntur de manu eius Edom et Moab et principium filiorum Ammon
42 And he will cast his hand upon the lands, and the land of Egypt will not escape.
Et mittet manum suam in terras et Terra Aegypti non effugiet
43 And he will rule over the treasure chests of gold, and silver, and all the precious things of Egypt, and likewise he will pass through Libya and Ethiopia.
Et dominabitur thesaurorum auri et argenti et in omnibus pretiosis Aegypti per Libyam quoque et Aethiopiam transibit
44 And rumors from the East and from the North will trouble him. And he will arrive with a great multitude to destroy and to execute many.
Et fama turbabit eum ab Oriente et ab Aquilone et veniet in multitudine magna ut conterat et interficiat plurimos
45 And he will fasten his tabernacle, Apadno, between the seas, upon an illustrious and holy mountain, and he will come even to its summit, and no one will help him.”
Et figet tabernaculum suum Apadno inter maria super montem inclytum et sanctum et veniet usque ad summitatem eius et nemo auxiliabitur ei
