Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus, king of the Persians, a message was revealed to Daniel, called Belteshazzar, and a true word, and great strength. And he understood the message, for understanding is needed in a vision.
Na mobu ya misato ya bokonzi ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, Nzambe alakisaki makambo epai ya Daniele oyo bazalaki kobenga Belitsatsari. Makambo yango ezalaki ya solo: etalisaki pasi makasi oyo ekoya. Daniele azwaki mayele ya kososola yango kati na emoniseli.
2 In those days, I, Daniel, mourned for three weeks of days.
Na tango wana, ngai Daniele, nasalaki matanga oyo esalaki baposo misato.
3 I ate no desirable bread, and neither meat, nor wine, entered my mouth, neither was I anointed with ointment, until the three weeks of days were completed.
Nazalaki kolia lisusu bilei ya kitoko te; ezala misuni to vino, eloko moko te ekotaki lisusu na monoko na ngai. Mpe, na baposo misato wana, nazalaki kopakola lisusu mafuta ya solo kitoko te.
4 But on the twenty-fourth day of the first month, I was next to the great river, which is the Tigris.
Na mokolo ya tuku mibale na minei ya sanza ya liboso, tango nazalaki pembeni ya ebale monene Tigre,
5 And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw, and behold, one man clothed in linen, and his waist was wrapped with the finest gold,
natombolaki miso na ngai na likolo mpe namonaki moto moko alata bilamba ya lino mpe mokaba moko ya wolo ya Ufazi na loketo na ye.
6 and his body was like the golden stone, and his face had the appearance of lightning, and his eyes that of a burning lamp, and his arms and all that is downward all the way to the feet had the appearance of glowing brass, and his speaking voice was like the voice of a multitude.
Nzoto na ye ezalaki kongenga lokola topaze, elongi na ye ezalaki kongala lokola mokalikali, miso na ye ezalaki kopela lokola moto, maboko mpe makolo na ye ezalaki kongenga lokola ebende ya bronze oyo balekisa na moto, mpe mongongo na ye ezalaki koyokana lokola makelele ya bato ebele.
7 But I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see it, but an exceedingly great terror rushed over them, and they fled into hiding.
Ngai, Daniele, ngai moko kaka nde namonaki emoniseli yango. Bato oyo bazalaki elongo na ngai bamonaki yango te, kasi somo makasi ekweyelaki bango, bakimaki mpe babombamaki.
8 And I, having been left alone, saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me, moreover, my appearance was altered, and I languished, not having any strength.
Boye, natikalaki kaka ngai moko mpe nakomaki kotala emoniseli monene yango; makasi esilaki ngai, elongi na ngai ebebaki makasi mpe nalembaki nzoto.
9 And I heard the voice of his words, and when I heard, I lay down in confusion on my face, and my face was close to the ground.
Nayokaki moto yango koloba; bongo wana nazalaki koyoka mongongo na ye, nakweyaki makalikali, elongi kino na mabele.
10 And behold, a hand touched me, and raised me onto my knees and the knuckles of my hands.
Loboko moko esimbaki ngai mpe etelemisaki ngai, makolo mpe maboko na ngai ekomaki kolenga.
11 And he said to me, “Daniel, man of longing, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand yourself upright, for I am now sent to you.” And when he had said these words to me, I stood trembling.
Bongo moto yango alobaki na ngai: — Daniele, molingami ya Nzambe, yoka malamu maloba oyo nazali koyebisa yo mpe telema na esika oyo ozali, pamba te natindami sik’oyo epai na yo. Wana azalaki nanu koloba na ngai, natelemaki na kolenga.
12 And he said to me, “Do not be afraid, Daniel, because from the first day that you set your heart to understand, by afflicting yourself in the sight of your God, your words have been heeded, and I have arrived because of your words.
Akobaki koloba na ngai: — Daniele, kobanga te! Wuta mokolo ya liboso oyo ozwaki makanisi ya koluka kososola mpe komikitisa liboso ya Nzambe na yo, libondeli na yo eyokamaki, mpe nayaki lokola eyano na libondeli yango.
13 But the leader of the kingdom of the Persians resisted me for twenty-one days, and behold, Michael, one of the primary leaders, came to help me, and I remained there next to the king of the Persians.
Kasi mokambi ya mokili ya Persi atelemelaki ngai mikolo tuku mibale na moko. Boye, Misheli, moko kati na bakonzi ya ba-anjelu, ayaki kosunga ngai, pamba te bakonzi ya Persi bakangaki ngai kuna.
14 But I have come to teach you what will happen to your people in the latter days, because the vision is for a long time from now.”
Sik’oyo, nayei kolimbolela yo makambo oyo ekokomela bato na yo na mikolo ekoya, pamba te emoniseli oyo ezali kolobela lisusu makambo oyo ekosalema na mikolo ekoya.
15 And while he was speaking words to me in this way, I cast my face down to the ground and was silent.
Wana azalaki koloba na ngai, nakitisaki elongi mpe nakokaki lisusu koloba te.
16 And behold, something in the likeness of a son of man touched my lips. Then, opening my mouth, I spoke and said to him who stood before me, “My lord, at the sight of you, my limbs became weak and no strength has remained in me.
Boye, ekelamu oyo ezalaki lokola moto esimbaki bibebu na ngai, mpe nakokaki lisusu kofungola monoko na ngai mpo na koloba. Nalobaki na ekelamu oyo etelemaki liboso na ngai: — Nkolo na ngai, molimo na ngai etungisami likolo ya emoniseli oyo nasili kozwa, mpe, ngai moto, nalembi nzoto!
17 And so, how can the servant of my lord speak with my lord? For no strength remains in me; and even my breathing is hindered.”
Ndenge nini mosali lokola ngai, nakoka solo kosolola na yo, nkolo na ngai, awa makasi esili ngai mpe kopema na ngai ekomi na pasi?
18 Therefore, he who looked like a man, touched me again and strengthened me.
Ekelamu oyo ezalaki lokola moto esimbaki ngai lisusu mpe epesaki ngai makasi.
19 And he said, “Fear not, O man of longing. May peace be with you. Take courage and be strong.” And when he spoke to me, I recovered, and I said, “Speak, my lord, for you have strengthened me.”
Elobaki na ngai: — Molingami ya Nzambe, kobanga te, zala na kimia! Zala makasi; solo, zala makasi! Wana ezalaki koloba na ngai, nzoto na ngai ezwaki lisusu makasi mpe nalobaki: — Loba, nkolo na ngai, pamba te opesi ngai makasi.
20 And he said, “Do you not know why I have come to you? And next I will return, to fight against the leader of the Persians. When I was leaving, there appeared the leader of the Greeks arriving.
Boye, elobaki: — Boni, oyebi mpo na nini nayei epai na yo? Sik’oyo, nakomi pene ya kozonga mpo na kobundisa mokambi ya Persi; mpe tango ngai nakokende, mokambi ya Grese akoya;
21 But, in truth, I announce to you what is expressed in the scripture of truth. And no one is my helper in all these things, except Michael your leader.”
kasi liboso na nyonso, nakoyebisa yo makambo oyo ekomami kati na buku ya solo. Moto moko te asungaka ngai liboso na bango; kaka Misheli, mokambi na bino.
