Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the message was true, even a great warfare. He understood the message, and had understanding of the vision.
Persiate leng, Cyrus kitipa, leng chankal kumthum lhinkumin, Belteshazzar jong kisah Daniel chun, themgao thilmu in mu aneikitin ahi. Aman hichea athilmu chu, khonunga hesoh gentheina leh gal nasatah phat hung lhung tei ding, kiphong doh ahi, ti ahetai.
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks.
Hiche themgao thilmua mu kanei laitah chun, Daniel keima, hapta thum lhingset lunghem puldouva ka um laitah ahi.
3 I ate no pleasant food. No meat or wine came into my mouth. I didn’t anoint myself at all, until three whole weeks were fulfilled.
Chuche phatsungse se chun, keiman anneh alhum atwi kanepoi. Sa jong kanepon chuleh lengpitwi jong kakam sunga alutkha poi. Chuleh hapta thum lhinkah chun, thao namtwi jong kinu louvin ka um’e.
4 In the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel,
Lhamasa nisomni leh nili lhinnin, keima vadung minthang Tigris pang’a kana dingin ahi.
5 I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a man clothed in linen, whose waist was adorned with pure gold of Uphaz.
Keima kadahin kavet leh, tupat ponnem kisil mipa khat kamun, ama chun akong’a sana thengsel konggah akigahin ahi.
6 His body also was like beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches. His arms and his feet were like burnished bronze. The voice of his words was like the voice of a multitude.
Amapa tahsa chu song mantam abangin, amaiso jong kolphe bangin avahin, chuleh amit teni jong meikou kide abang e. Abanjang teni leh akeng teni jong, sum-eng kinot jolsel bang in avalin, chuleh a awso jong mihon tamtah awgin abangin ahi.
7 I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me didn’t see the vision, but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves.
Daniel keima, changsehin, hiche themgao thilmu hi kamu ahi. Kaum khompi miho chun hiche kathilmu chu amupouve. Ahin, amaho atijauvin, chuleh kiseldoh dingin ajam mang soh tauve.
8 So I was left alone and saw this great vision. No strength remained in me; for my face grew deathly pale, and I retained no strength.
Chuin keima ka changsehin eidalhauvin, chuche themgao thilmu nasatah chu kamu tai. Hichun katha jouse abeijin, kamelso akikhelin chuleh thanei louvin kalel lheh jengin ahi.
9 Yet I heard the voice of his words. When I heard the voice of his words, then I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
Chuin keiman mipa thusei chu kajan, chutia ama awgin kajah chun, tol-ah kalhun, kamai kasulutin chuleh kathimilliu tan ahi.
10 Behold, a hand touched me, which set me on my knees and on the palms of my hands.
Hichepet chun khut khatin eihinthamin chuleh eikai touvin, kihot pum pumin keima jong kakhup tenin ka pansan, ka bung’e.
11 He said to me, “Daniel, you greatly beloved man, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have been sent to you, now.” When he had spoken this word to me, I stood trembling.
Chuin mipa chun ka jah’a aseijin, “Daniel nangma Pathen dingin manlutah nahi. Hijeh chun, nahenga kasei ding hohi chingthei tahin ngaijin. Chuleh dingdohin, keima hi nang kom’a eihung kisol ahi,” ati.
12 Then he said to me, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel; for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. I have come for your words’ sake.
Chuin aman kajah’a, kicha hih in Daniel. Nangma na Pathen ang sung’a na kineo sah’a, thil hetkhen themna nathum nikho amasapen’a pat’a chu na taona jouse van’a na kingai peh ahitai. Hijeh’a chu keima nahenga hung’a kahi.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; but, behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me because I remained there with the kings of Persia.
Amavang nisom ni leh nikhat sung chu, Persia leng chapa lhagao gilou chun ka lampia eitingin ahi. Hijeh chun vantil pipu Michael vantil chu eipanhu dingin ahungin, chuleh keiman Michael vantil chu leng chapa lhagao chutoh kidou dingin ka dalha tai.
14 Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision is yet for many days.”
Tua hilaija kahung hi, khonunga namite chunga ipi thil hungsoh ding ham, ti seipeh’a hung kahi. Ajeh chu themgao thilmua namu chengse hi, khonung thil hungsoh ding ngen ahibouve ati.
15 When he had spoken these words to me, I set my face toward the ground and was mute.
Aman hitia aseipet chun, keiman tol lang kaven kakunin, thucheng khat jong seidoh theilouvin ka um’e.
16 Behold, one in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth, and spoke and said to him who stood before me, “My lord, by reason of the vision my sorrows have overtaken me, and I retain no strength.
Chuin mihem tobang khatin, kane teni ahung thamin ahileh, keiman kakam kahinkah tan, chuleh kahung paodoh tai. Hichun kenjong ka masang’a dingpa jah’a chun, “Vo kapu, themgao thilmua mu kaneijeh in, ka pumin kanatlo tan, chuleh kalel lheh jeng tai.”
17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? For as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me. There was no breath left in me.”
Kapu, na sohpa keima hitobang bep hi, iti nangtoh ka kihoulim jou ding ham? Ka tha jouse abeitan chuleh kahaina hu jong amangpai ding ahi tai,” kati.
18 Then one like the appearance of a man touched me again, and he strengthened me.
Chuphat in mihem tobang’a melpupa chun, eihin tham kitin ahileh, ka hung hatdoh kit tai.
19 He said, “Greatly beloved man, don’t be afraid. Peace be to you. Be strong. Yes, be strong.” When he spoke to me, I was strengthened, and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
Aman aseijin, “Kicha hihin, ajehchu nangma hi Pathen dinga manlutah nahi. Lungmongin, kitilkhouvin chuleh hattahin pangin,” eiti. Aman hitia asei kajah phatin, apettah chun, ka tha ahung hatdoh tan, amapa jah’a chun, “Kapu, nei lungsetin, thu chu nei seipeh tan, ajeh chu, nangman neihat doh sahkit ahitai,” kati.
20 Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? Now I will return to fight with the prince of Persia. When I go out, behold, the prince of Greece will come.
Chuin aman eidonbut in, “Ipi bol’a naheng’a hung kahi nahet em? Tua hi, ka kile kit’a, Persia leng chapa lhagao gilou chutoh kisat ding kahi. Chujou tengleh, vetan, Greek leng chapa chu hung ding ahitai.
21 But I will tell you that which is inscribed in the writing of truth. There is no one who holds with me against these but Michael your prince.
Chuleh keiman thutah lekhabu a kijih chu, nangma kaseipeh ding ahi. Vetan, hiche lhagao gilou ho toh kakidouna-a hin, nangding’a leng chapa Michael vantil tilou, koima eipanhu ding aum poi.”
