< Daniel 11 >

1 'And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, my standing [is] for a strengthener, and for a stronghold to him;
Y en el año primero de Darío, el de Media, yo estuve para animarle, y fortalecerle.
2 and, now, truth I declare to thee, Lo, yet three kings are standing for Persia, and the fourth doth become far richer than all, and according to his strength by his riches he stirreth up the whole, with the kingdom of Javan.
Y ahora yo te mostraré la verdad: He aquí que aun tres reyes estarán en Persia; y el cuarto se enriquecerá de grandes riquezas, más que todos; y fortificándose con sus riquezas, despertará a todos contra el reino de Grecia.
3 And a mighty king hath stood, and he hath ruled a great dominion, and hath done according to his will;
Y levantarse ha un rey valiente, el cual se enseñoreará sobre gran señorío, y hará a su voluntad.
4 and according to his standing is his kingdom broken, and divided to the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion that he ruled, for his kingdom is plucked up — and for others apart from these.
Y cuando se hubiere enseñoreado, su reino será quebrantado, y será partido en los cuatro vientos del cielo, y no a su descendiente, ni según el señorío con que él se enseñoreó; porque su reino será arrancado, y para otros fuera de estos.
5 'And a king of the south — even of his princes — doth become strong, and doth prevail against him, and hath ruled; a great dominion [is] his dominion.
Y hacerse ha fuerte el rey del mediodía y de sus principados, y sobrepujarle ha, y apoderarse ha, y su señorío será grande señorío.
6 'And at the end of years they do join themselves together, and a daughter of the king of the south doth come in unto the king of the north to do upright things; and she doth not retain the power of the arm; and he doth not stand, nor his arm; and she is given up, she, and those bringing her in, and her child, and he who is strengthening her in [these] times.
Mas al cabo de algunos años se concertarán, y la hija del rey del mediodía vendrá al rey del norte, para hacer los conciertos: Mas no tendrá fuerza de brazo, ni permanecerá él, ni su brazo. Porque ella será entregada, y los que la hubieron traído, y su padre, y los que estaban de su parte en aquellos días.
7 'And [one] hath stood up from a branch of her roots, [in] his station, and he cometh in unto the bulwark, yea, he cometh into a stronghold of the king of the south, and hath wrought against them, and hath done mightily;
Mas del renuevo de sus raíces se levantará sobre su silla, y vendrá al ejército, y entrará en la fortaleza del rey del norte, y hará en ellos a su voluntad, y corroborarse ha.
8 and also their gods, with their princes, with their desirable vessels of silver and gold, into captivity he bringeth [into] Egypt; and he doth stand more years than the king of the north.
Y aun los dioses de ellos, con sus príncipes, con sus vasos preciosos de plata y de oro, llevará cautivos a Egipto. Y por algunos años él se mantendrá contra el rey del norte.
9 'And the king of the south hath come into the kingdom, and turned back unto his own land;
Y vendrá en el reino el rey del mediodía, y volverá a su tierra.
10 and his sons stir themselves up, and have gathered a multitude of great forces, and he hath certainly come in, and overflowed, and passed through, and he turneth back, and they stir themselves up unto his stronghold.
Mas sus hijos se airarán, y juntarán multitud de muchos ejércitos, y vendrá a gran priesa, e inundará, y pasará, y tornará, y llegará con ira hasta su fortaleza.
11 And the king of the south doth become embittered, and hath gone forth and fought with him, with the king of the north, and hath caused a great multitude to stand, and the multitude hath been given into his hand,
Por lo cual el rey del mediodía se enojará, y saldrá, y peleará con el mismo rey del norte; y pondrá en campo gran multitud, y toda aquella multitud será entregada en su mano.
12 and he hath carried away the multitude, his heart is high, and he hath caused myriads to fall, and he doth not become strong.
Por lo cual la multitud se ensoberbecerá, elevarse ha su corazón, y derribará muchos millares, y no prevalecerá.
13 'And the king of the north hath turned back, and hath caused a multitude to stand, greater than the first, and at the end of the times a second time he doth certainly come in with a great force, and with much substance;
Y volverá el rey del norte, y pondrá en campo mayor multitud que primero; y al cabo del tiempo de algunos años vendrá a gran priesa con grande ejército, y con muchas riquezas.
14 and in those times many do stand up against the king of the south, and sons of the destroyers of thy people do lift themselves up to establish the vision — and they have stumbled.
Mas en aquellos tiempos muchos se levantarán contra el rey del mediodía; e hijos de disipadores de tu pueblo se levantarán para confirmar la profecía, y caerán.
15 'And the king of the north cometh in, and poureth out a mount, and hath captured fenced cities; and the arms of the south do not stand, nor the people of his choice, yea, there is no power to stand.
Y vendrá el rey del norte, y fundará baluartes, y tomará la ciudad fuerte, y los brazos del mediodía no podrán permanecer, ni su pueblo escogido, ni habrá fortaleza que pueda resistir.
16 And he who is coming unto him doth according to his will, and there is none standing before him; and he standeth in the desirable land, and [it is] wholly in his hand.
Y el que vendrá contra él, hará a su voluntad, ni habrá quien se le pueda parar delante; y estará en la tierra deseable, la cual será consumida en su poder.
17 And he setteth his face to go in with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; and he hath wrought, and the daughter of women he giveth to him, to corrupt her; and she doth not stand, nor is for him.
Y pondrá su rostro para venir con la potencia de todo su reino, y hará con él cosas rectas, y darle ha una hija de sus mujeres para trastornarla: mas no estará, ni será por él.
18 'And he turneth back his face to the isles, and hath captured many; and a prince hath caused his reproach of himself to cease; without his reproach he turneth [it] back to him.
Volverá después su rostro a las islas, y tomará muchas; y un príncipe le hará parar su vergüenza, y aun volverá sobre él su vergüenza.
19 And he turneth back his face to the strongholds of his land, and hath stumbled and fallen, and is not found.
De aquí volverá su rostro a las fortalezas de su tierra; y tropezará, y caerá, y no parecerá más.
20 'And stood up on his station hath [one] causing an exactor to pass over the honour of the kingdom, and in a few days he is destroyed, and not in anger, nor in battle.
Mas sucedará en su silla quien quitará las exacciones, el cual será gloria del reino: mas en pocos días será quebrantado, no en enojo, ni en batalla.
21 'And stood up on his station hath a despicable one, and they have not given unto him the honour of the kingdom, and he hath come in quietly, and hath strengthened the kingdom by flatteries.
Y sucederá en su lugar un vil, al cual no darán la honra del reino: mas vendrá con paz, y tomará el reino con halagos.
22 And the arms of the flood are overflowed from before him, and are broken; and also the leader of the covenant.
Y los brazos serán inundados de inundación delante de él; y serán quebrantados, y aun también el capitán del concierto.
23 And after they join themselves unto him, he worketh deceit, and hath increased, and hath been strong by a few of the nation.
Y después de los conciertos con él, él hará engañó; y subirá, y saldrá vencedor con poca gente.
24 Peaceably even into the fertile places of the province He cometh, and he hath done that which his fathers did not, nor his fathers' fathers; prey, and spoil, and substance, to them he scattereth, and against fenced places he deviseth his devices, even for a time.
Estando la provincia en paz, y en abundancia, entrará, y hará lo que nunca hicieron sus padres, ni los padres de sus padres: presa, y despojos, y riqueza repartirá a sus soldados; y contra las fortalezas pensará con sus pensamientos; y esto por tiempo.
25 'And he stirreth up his power and his heart against the king of the south with a great force, and the king of the south stirreth himself up to battle with a very great and mighty force, and standeth not, for they devise devices against him,
Y despertará sus fuerzas y su corazón contra el rey del mediodía con grande ejército; y el rey del mediodía será provocado a la guerra con grande ejército y muy fuerte: mas no prevalecerá, porque le harán traición.
26 and those eating his portion of food destroy him, and his force overfloweth, and fallen have many wounded.
Y los que comerán su pan, le quebrantarán; y su ejército será destruido, y caerán muchos muertos.
27 'And both of the kings' hearts [are] to do evil, and at one table they speak lies, and it doth not prosper, for yet the end [is] at a time appointed.
Y el corazón de estos dos reyes será para hacer se mal; y en una misma mesa tratarán mentira: mas no servirá de nada; porque el plazo aun no es llegado.
28 And he turneth back [to] his land with great substance, and his heart [is] against the holy covenant, and he hath wrought, and turned back to his land.
Y volverse ha a su tierra con grande riqueza; y su corazón será contra el santo concierto; y hará, y volverse ha a su tierra.
29 At the appointed time he turneth back, and hath come against the south, and it is not as the former, and as the latter.
Al tiempo señalado tornará al mediodía: mas no será la postrera venida como la primera.
30 And ships of Chittim have come in against him, and he hath been pained, and hath turned back, and hath been insolent toward the holy covenant, and hath wrought, and turned back, and he understandeth concerning those forsaking the holy covenant.
Porque vendrán contra él naves de Quitim; y él se contristará, y tornarse ha, y enojarse ha contra el santo concierto, y hará; y volverse ha, y pensará contra los que habrán desamparado el santo concierto.
31 And strong ones out of him stand up, and have polluted the sanctuary, the stronghold, and have turned aside the continual [sacrifice], and appointed the desolating abomination.
Y serán puestos brazos de su parte, y contaminarán el santuario de fortaleza; y quitarán el continuo sacrificio, y pondrán la abominación espantosa.
32 And those acting wickedly [against] the covenant, he defileth by flatteries; and the people knowing their God are strong, and have wrought.
Y con lisonjas hará pecar a los violadores del concierto: mas el pueblo que conoce a su Dios se esforzará, y hará.
33 And the teachers of the people give understanding to many; and they have stumbled by sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil — days.
Y los sabios del pueblo darán sabiduría a muchos; y morirán a cuchillo, a fuego, y cautividad, y saco, por algunos días.
34 And in their stumbling, they are helped — a little help, and joined to them have been many with flatteries.
Y en su caer serán ayudados de pequeño socorro; y muchos se juntarán con ellos con lisonjas.
35 And some of the teachers do stumble for refining by them, and for purifying, and for making white — till the end of the time, for [it is] yet for a time appointed.
Mas de los sabios caerán, para ser purgados, y limpiados, y emblanquecidos, hasta el tiempo determinado; porque aun para esto hay plazo.
36 'And the king hath done according to his will, and exalteth himself, and magnifieth himself against every god, and against the God of gods he speaketh wonderful things, and hath prospered till the indignation hath been completed, for that which is determined hath been done.
Y el rey hará a su voluntad; y ensoberbecerse ha, y engrandecerse ha sobre todo dios; y contra el Dios de los dioses hablará maravillas, y será prosperado, hasta que la ira sea acabada; porque hecha está determinación.
37 And unto the God of his fathers he doth not attend, nor to the desire of women, yea, to any god he doth not attend, for against all he magnifieth himself.
Y del Dios de sus padres no hará caso, ni del amor de las mujeres: ni se cuidará de Dios alguno; porque sobre todo se engrandecerá.
38 And to the god of strongholds, on his station, he giveth honour; yea, to a god whom his fathers knew not he giveth honour, with gold, and with silver, and with precious stone, and with desirable things.
Mas al dios Mauzim honrará en su lugar, dios que sus padres no conocieron: honrarle ha con oro, y plata, y piedras preciosas, y con cosas de gran precio.
39 And he hath dealt in the fortresses of the strongholds with a strange god whom he hath acknowledged; he multiplieth honour, and hath caused them to rule over many, and the ground he apportioneth at a price.
Y con el dios ajeno que conocerá, hará castillos fuertes, ensanchará su gloria, y hacerlos ha señores sobre muchos, y repartirá la tierra por precio.
40 'And at the time of the end, push himself forward with him doth a king of the south, and storm against him doth a king of the north, with chariot, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he hath come in to the lands, and hath overflowed, and passed over,
Mas al cabo del tiempo el rey del mediodía se acorneará con él, y el rey del norte levantará contra él tempestad, con carros, y gente de a caballo, y muchos navíos; y entrará por las tierras, e inundará, y pasará.
41 and hath come into the desirable land, and many do stumble, and these escape from his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the sons of Ammon.
Y vendrá en la tierra deseable, y muchas provincias caerán: mas estas escaparán de su mano, Edom, y Moab, y lo primero de los hijos de Ammón.
42 'And he sendeth forth his hand upon the lands, and the land of Egypt is not for an escape;
Y extendará su mano a las tierras; y la tierra de Egipto no escapará.
43 and he hath ruled over treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the desirable things of Egypt, and Lubim and Cushim [are] at his steps.
Y apoderarse ha de los tesoros de oro y plata, y de todas las cosas preciosas de Egipto, de Libia, y Etiopía por donde pasará.
44 'And reports trouble him out of the east and out of the north, and he hath gone forth in great fury to destroy, and to devote many to destruction;
Mas nuevas de oriente y del norte le espantarán; y saldrá con grande ira para destruir y matar muchos.
45 and he planteth the tents of his palace between the seas and the holy desirable mountain, and hath come unto his end, and there is no helper to him.
Y plantará las tiendas de su palacio entre los mares, en el monte deseable del santuario; y vendrá hasta su fin, y no tendrá quien le ayude.
