Daniel 11
1 And from the first year of Darius the Mede I stood up that he might be strengthened and confirmed.
瑪待人達理阿王元年，他前來堅固我，協助我。
2 And now I will shew thee the truth. Behold there shall stand yet three kings in Persia, and the fourth shall be enriched exceedingly above them all: and when he shall be grown mighty by his riches, he shall stir up all against the kingdom of Greece.
現在我要把真事告訴你：看，在波斯還要興起三位君王，第四位要擁有大量的財富，遠遠超過以前所有的君王；他因財富而強盛，於是煽動萬國對抗雅汪國。
3 But there shall rise up a strong king, and shall rule with great power: and he shall do what he pleaseth.
以後要興起一位英勇的君王，他獨掌大權，統治一切，為所欲為。
4 And when he shall come to his height, his kingdom shall be broken, and it shall 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 shall be rent in pieces, even for strangers, beside these.
但當他極盛的時候，他的國必要瓦解，他的天下必要四分五裂，而不歸於他的後裔；也沒有相似他所有的統治權，他的國必要滅亡，歸屬不是他後裔的外人。
5 And the king of the south shall be strengthened, and one of his princes shall prevail over him, and he shall rule with great power: for his dominion shall be great.
南方的君王要強盛起來，但他的將領中，有一個比他更強的要獲得政權；他王國的勢力非常強大。
6 And after the end of years they shall be in league together: and the daughter of the king of the south shall come to the king of the north to make friendship, but she shall not obtain the strength of the arm, neither shall her seed stand: and she shall be given up, and her young men that brought her, and they that strengthened her in these times.
幾年以後他們要締結同盟，南方君王的公主要嫁給北方的君王，以求修好；但是她得不到勢力，她和她所生的也不能久存；她和她的侍從，她的兒子以及輔助她的都要被殺害。到那時，
7 And a plant of the bud of her roots, shall stand up: and he shall come with an army, and shall enter into the province of the king of the north: and he shall abuse them, and shall prevail.
必從她根上出生一個嫩枝，繼承父位；他必興師出征，進入北方君王的保壘，將他們擊敗，獲得勝利；
8 And he shall also carry away captive into Egypt their gods, and their graven things, and their precious vessels of gold and silver: he shall prevail against the king of the north.
並將他們的神像、鑄像和金銀寶器劫往埃及，從此數年之久與北方的君王對峙；
9 And the king of the south shall enter into the kingdom, and shall return to his own land.
但北方的君王終要侵入南方君王的國土，事後仍返回本國。
10 And his sons shall be provoked, and they shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and he shall come with haste like a flood: and he shall return and be stirred up, and he shall join battle with his forces.
他的兒子必要備戰，招募強大的勁旅，親自出征；衝過時，相似洪水氾濫；他必猛攻，直逼敵軍的保壘。
11 And the king of the south being provoked shall go forth, and shall fight against the king of the north, and shall prepare an exceeding great multitude, and a multitude shall be given into his hand.
南方的君王必然大怒，出師與北方的君王交戰，北方的君王也必調集大軍，但這支大軍必被交在敵方手中。
12 And he shall take a multitude, and his heart shall be lifted up, and he shall cast down many thousands: but he shall not prevail.
這支大軍被擄去以後，南方的君王便心高氣傲，不過他雖擊斃千萬大軍，仍不能強盛，
13 For the king of the north shall return and shall prepare a multitude much greater than before: and in the end of times and years, be shall come in haste with a great army, and much riches.
因為北方君王必再調集大軍，比以前更為龐大，數年以後，再率領大軍，帶著大量的輜重，出征南下。
14 And in those times many shall rise up against the king of the south, and the children of prevaricators of thy people shall lift up themselves to fulfill the vision, and they shall fall.
那時，將有許多人起來攻擊南方君王，你百姓中的匪徒也要起來，為應驗異象，但他們終必失敗。
15 And the king of the north shall come, and shall cast up a mount, and shall take the best fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, and his chosen ones shall rise up to resist, and they shall not have strength.
北方的君王就前來，興建壁壘，攻取堅城，南方的軍隊不能抵抗，連精銳的部隊也無力抵禦。
16 And he shall come upon him and do according to his pleasure, and there shall be none to stand against his face: and he shall stand in the glorious land, and it shall be consumed by his hand.
來攻南方君王的，必任意而行，沒有人能抵抗；他還要立足在華麗之地，破壞之權操在他手中。
17 And he shall set his face to come to possess all his kingdom, and he shall make upright conditions with him: and he shall give him a daughter of women, to overthrow it: and she shall not stand, neither shall she be for him.
他企圖征服整個南國，遂與南方君王立約通婚，將自己的女兒嫁給他，好傾覆他的國，但是他的企圖沒有成功，也沒有見效。
18 And he shall turn his face to the islands, and shall take many: and he shall cause the prince of his reproach to cease, and his reproach shall be turned upon him.
此後，他要轉向各島嶼，佔據了許多島嶼；但有一個將官要阻止他的蠻橫，使他的蠻橫害了自己。
19 And he shall turn his face to the empire of his own land, and he shall stumble, and fall, and shall not be found.
他遂轉身回到他國內的保壘裏，終於一蹶不振，從此消失不見。
20 And there shall stand up in his place, one most vile, and unworthy of kingly honour: and in a few days he shall be destroyed, not in rage nor in battle.
以後另有一人代他興起，他要派橫徵暴歛的人遍行國內華麗之地，但他沒有過幾天，就喪了命，不是由於叛變，也不是由於作戰。
21 And there shall stand up in his place one despised, and the kingly honour shall not be given him: and he shall come privately, and shall obtain the kingdom by fraud.
這以後將有一個下賤的人代他興起；原來人沒有將治國的權力授給他，他卻乘人不備，以陰謀篡奪了王位。
22 And the arms of the fighter shall be overcome before his face, and shall be broken; yea also the prince of the covenant.
來進攻他的大軍要被他完全擊潰，同盟之君也要被擊敗。
23 And after friendships, he will deal deceitfully with him: and he shall go up, and shall overcome with a small people.
有人與他聯合，他即施行騙術；他借助少數的人民，就漸漸強大起來。
24 And he shall enter into rich and plentiful cities: and he shall do that which his fathers never did, nor his fathers’ fathers: he shall scatter their spoils, and their prey, and their riches, and shall forecast devices against the best fenced places: and this until a time.
他又乘人不備，侵入省內肥沃之區，實行他祖先及他祖先的祖先所未行過的事，將戰利品、掠奪物和財產分給自己的黨羽；又策劃陰謀進攻保壘，但只到某一限期。
25 And his strength and his heart shall be stirred up against the king of the south with a great army: and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with many and very strong succours: and they shall not stand, for they shall form designs against him.
他要竭盡自己的精力，鼓起勇氣，率領大軍進攻南方君王；南方君王亦率領極強大的勁旅奮起迎戰，但無法抵禦，因為有人籌劃陰謀陷害他；
26 And they that eat bread with him, shall destroy him, and his army shall be overthrown: and many shall fall down slain.
那些破壞他的，正是吃他飯的人；他的勁旅將潰不成軍，傷亡的極多。
27 And the heart of the two kings shall be to do evil, and they shall speak lies at one table, and they shall not prosper: because as yet the end is unto another time.
兩位君王都存心不良，同坐一桌，各說謊話，而毫無成就，因為必須到所定的時期，纔有結局。
28 And he shall return into his land with much riches: and his heart shall be against the holy covenant, and he shall succeed and shall return into his own land.
北方的君王卻要帶著大量的財物返回本國；他既存心與聖約作對，也必採取行動，然後纔回國。
29 At the time appointed he shall return, and he shall come to the south, but the latter time shall not be like the former.
到了預定的時期，他必再度南征，但是第二次卻不如第一次，
30 And the galleys and the Romans shall come upon him, and he shall be struck, and shall return, and shall have indignation against the covenant of the sanctuary, and he shall succeed: and he shall return and shall devise against them that have forsaken the covenant of the sanctuary.
因為此次基廷的船必來攻擊他，他只得驚慌而歸。他遂遷怒於聖約，任意妄為；回去以後，他必重用那些背棄聖約的人士。
31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall defile the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the continual sacrifice, and they shall place there the abomination unto desolation.
那些迎合他意思的軍隊，也去褻瀆聖所的保壘，廢除日常祭，在那裏設立了那招致荒涼的可憎之物。
32 And such as deal wickedly against the covenant shall deceitfully dissemble: but the people that know their God shall prevail and succeed.
至於那些作惡違犯聖約的人士，他要用詐術使他們更加敗壞，但那認識自己天主的人民必也更加堅強有力。
33 And they that are learned among the people shall teach many: and they shall fall by the sword, and by fire, and by captivity, and by spoil for many days.
民間賢明之士必要訓誨民眾，但他們有很多日子要受刀劍、烈火、充軍和劫掠的迫害。
34 And when they shall have fallen they shall be relieved with a small help: and many shall be joined to them deceitfully.
在他們受迫害時，稍微得到一些援助，但是有許多人卻懷著奸詐的心與他們聯合。
35 And some of the learned shall fall, that they may be tried, and may be chosen, and made white even to the appointed time, because yet there shall be another time.
有些賢明之士要受迫害，是為鍛鍊、洗滌和潔淨他們，直到時期結束，因為預定的時期尚未來到。
36 And the king shall do according to his will, and he shall be lifted up, and shall magnify himself against every god: and he shall speak great things against the God of gods, and shall prosper, till the wrath be accomplished. For the determination is made.
這位君王要任意妄為，妄自尊大，高舉自己在眾神之上，要發出怪謬的言論，反抗萬神之神，他暫時行事順利，直到天主的義怒洩盡，因為天主決定的事必要應驗。
37 And he shall make no account of the God of his fathers: and he shall follow the lust of women, and he shall not regard any gods: for he shall rise up against all things.
他不尊重自己祖先的神，也不尊重婦女們所愛的神，他不尊重任何神明，因為他將自己高舉在一切之上；
38 But he shall worship the god Maozim in his place: and a god whom his fathers knew not, he shall worship with gold, and silver, and precious stones, and things of great price.
卻去敬拜保壘之神，以金銀、寶石和珍品恭奉他祖先所不認識的神。
39 And he shall do this to fortify Maozim with a strange god, whom he hath acknowledged, and he shall increase glory and shall give them power over many, and shall divide the land gratis.
他要憑藉外神的助佑，攻擊堅固的保壘；凡附和他的，他必增加他們的光榮，使他們治理民眾，分封土地，做為賞報。
40 And at the time prefixed the king of the south shall fight against him, and the king of the north shall come against him like a tempest, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with a great navy, and he shall enter into the countries, and shall destroy, and pass through.
到末期，南方的君王將要與他交戰；北方的君王也要率領戰車、騎兵和許多戰艦，像旋風般向他還擊，侵入他的國土；所經之地，有如洪水破堤。
41 And he shall enter into the glorious land, and many shall fall: and these only shall be saved out of his hand, Edom, and Moab, and the principality of the children of Ammon.
他要侵入華麗之地，千萬人要喪亡，但是厄東、摩阿布和大部分阿孟子民，卻要逃脫他的手。
42 And he shall lay his hand upon the lands: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
他又要伸手攻擊各國，埃及地亦不能幸免；
43 And he shall have power over the treasures of gold, and of silver, and all the precious things of Egypt: and he shall pass through Libya, and Ethiopia.
他要佔有金銀府庫和埃及的一切寶物。利比亞和雇士人也要來與他聯合。
44 And tidings out of the east, and out of the north shall trouble him: and he shall come with a great multitude to destroy and slay many.
但是來自東方和北方的消息要使他震驚；他遂懷著盛怒去討伐，要許多人殺盡滅絕。
45 And he shall fix his tabernacle Apadno between the seas, upon a glorious and holy mountain: and he shall come even to the top thereof, and none shall help him.
他要在海洋和美麗聖山之間，支搭他堂皇的帳幕，但此時已到了他的末日，已沒有任何人能援助他。
