< Daniel 11 >

1 "And as for me, in the first year of Daryavesh the Mede, I stood up to support and strengthen him.
Kai khaw Mede Darius kah a kum khat dongah tah anih taengah lunghim la om ham neh moem hamla kai m'pai sak.
2 And now what I show you is true. Look, there shall arise three more kings in Persia, and the fourth shall be far richer than all of them; and when he has grown strong through his riches, he shall stir up all the kingdom of Greece.
Te dongah nang taengah oltak kan thui coeng. Persia ah manghai pathum phoe pueng vetih a pali tah anmih boeih lakah a len la khuehtawn neh boei ni ne. Te vaengah a thadueng neh a khuehtawn loh Javan ram pum te a haeng ni.
3 And a powerful king shall arise, who shall rule an extensive empire, and do as he pleases.
Manghai hlangrhalh a pai vaengah ukkung boeiping la a taemrhai vetih a kolonah bangla a saii ni.
4 When he shall arise, his kingdom shall be broken up, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not to his posterity, nor according to his authority with which he ruled; for his kingdom shall be uprooted, and will go to others besides these.
Anih a pai neh a ram te rhek vetih vaan khohli pali taengla a haeh ni. A hmailong te khui pawt vetih a taemrhai ham tluk mahpawh. A ram te a phong pah vetih te rhoek bal lakah a tloe taengla a paek ni.
5 The king of the south shall grow strong, and one of his officers shall grow more powerful, and shall have a greater kingdom than his.
Tuithim manghai khaw moem uh suidae a mangpa rhoek lamlong khaw anih lakah moem uh vetih a khohung te ukkung boeiping loh a taemrhai ni.
6 At the end of years they shall join themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she shall not retain her power; neither shall his strength endure; but she shall be surrendered, and her attendants, and he who became the father of her, and he who supported her in those times.
Kum a thoknah dongah tah patai uh thae vetih tuithim manghai canu rhoek loh vanat la saii hamla tlangpuei manghai te a paan ni. Tedae a ban thaa ueh pawt vetih cak mahpawh. A ban khaw a puei taengah a paek vetih anih aka sa neh anih aka moem rhoek khaw hnin at dongah hma ni.
7 But out of a shoot from her roots shall arise in his place, who shall come against the army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail.
A kho ah a yung a pae te cawn vetih tatthai te a paan ni. Tlangpuei manghai kah lunghim khuila kun vetih amih a saii nen te moem uh ni.
8 Also their gods, with their molten images, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold, shall he carry captive into Egypt; and he shall withdraw for some years from the king of the north.
Amih kah pathen rhoek khaw, a boeimang neh, a sahnaih hnopai neh, cak neh sui khaw Egypt loh tamna la a khuen ni. Te daengah ni anih te kum a yet tlangpuei manghai taengah a pai eh.
9 And he shall come into the realm of the king of the south, but he shall return into his own land.
Te phoeiah tuithim manghai kah ram te a muk suidae amah kho la mael ni.
10 And his sons shall wage war, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces, which shall advance and overflow and pass through, and they shall return and wage war, as far as his fortress.
A ca rhoek neh a ca rhoek tah huek uh tih tatthai hlangping la muep tingtun uh ni. Te vaengah pakhat te kun rhoe kun vetih a yo phoeiah a poeng ni. A mael vaengah khaw huek uh vetih a lunghim, a lunghim duela huek uh ni.
11 The king of the south shall be moved with rage and shall come forth and fight against him, even with the king of the north; and he shall raise a great multitude, and the multitude shall be given into his hand.
Tuithim manghai te pae vetih a paan ni. Anih taengah tlangpuei manghai neh a vathoh vetih hlangping neh muep a pai thil ni. Tedae hlangping te anih kut ah ni a paek eh.
12 The multitude shall be taken away, and his heart shall be exalted; and he shall cast down tens of thousands, but he shall not prevail.
Hlangping a khuen vaengah a thinko te a pomsang la a pomsang ni. Tedae thawngrha a cungku sak akhaw tanglue mahpawh.
13 The king of the north shall return, and shall raise a multitude greater than the former; and he shall advance after some years with a great army and with abundant supplies.
Tlangpuei manghai te mael vetih lamhma kah pilnu hlangping la pai ni. Kum tue a bawtnah dongah tah tatthai pilnu neh, khuehtawn boeiping neh pai rhoe pai ni.
14 And in those times many shall rise up against the king of the south: also the violent ones among your people shall rise up in confirmation of the vision; but they shall fail.
Te vaeng tue ah tuithim manghai te muep a pai thil uh vetih mangthui phoe sak hamla na pilnam kah dingca ca a phueih suidae paloe uh ni.
15 So the king of the north shall come, and build up a siege mound and take a well-fortified city. And the forces of the south shall not prevail, neither his best troops, neither shall there be any strength to resist.
Te phoeiah tlangpuei manghai ha pai vetih tanglung a lun ni. Te vaengah hmuencak khopuei te a loh vetih tuithim kah ban loh oel mahpawh. A pilnam hlangrhoei rhoek pataeng khaw a pai hamla thadueng tal ni.
16 But he who comes against him shall do as he pleases, and no one shall be able to withstand him. And he shall stand in the beautiful land, and destruction will be within his power.
Anih taengla aka pha te a kolonah bangla a saii vetih a mikhmuh ah pai uh mahpawh. Kirhang khohmuen te a thoh vetih amah kut khuiah a tlak sak ni.
17 He shall set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and will reach an agreement with him which he shall put into effect. And he shall give him a daughter of women to send destruction on him; but it will not last or be to his advantage.
A ram pum kah saithainah neh kun hamla a mikhmuh ah a tawn ni. A taengah a thuem la a saii vetih a canu a yuu la a paek ni. Te te phae cakhaw coeng hae pawt vetih a taengah om hae mahpawh.
18 After this shall he turn his face to the coastal regions, and shall capture many. But a commander shall bring his insolence to an end. In addition, he shall repay him for his insolence.
Te phoeiah mael vetih sanglak la a maelhmai a khueh ni. Te vaengah muep a loh akhaw a kokhahnah rhalboei khaw amah la kangkuen vetih a kokhahnah loh om kolla amah taengla mael ni.
19 Then he shall turn his attention toward the fortresses of his own land, but he shall stumble and fall, and shall not be found again.
Te vaengah a maelhmai te a khohmuen kah lunghim taengla la mael ni. Tedae paloe vetih a cungku phoeiah phoe voel mahpawh.
20 Then shall arise in his place one who shall send an exactor of tribute to pass through the kingdom to maintain its glory; but within few days he shall be destroyed, though not in anger nor in battle.
Anih hmuen kah aka pai loh ram kah boeilennah soah laisuk a paan sak ni. Tedae khohnin pakhat dongah bawt vetih thintoek neh om kolla caemtloek khuiah khaw om mahpawh.
21 In his place shall arise a despicable person, to whom the honor of kingship had not been given, but he shall come in a time of prosperity, and shall obtain the kingdom through deceit.
Anih yueng la aka pai khaw a hnaep uh vetih a taengah ram kah mueithennah te pae uh mahpawh. Tedae ommongnah khuila a pha vaengah ram te longtlang longah a moem ni.
22 And large armies shall be swept away and shattered before him, as well as the prince of the covenant.
Lungpook bantha khaw a mikhmuh dong lamloh khoe uh vetih paipi rhaengsang bal khaw bawt ni.
23 And after an alliance is made with him he shall work deceitfully; for he shall become strong with a small force.
Tedae anih neh a patai lamlong tah hlangthai palat la om vetih pongpa ni. Te vaengah namtom hlangsi neh rhoeng ni.
24 In a time of prosperity he shall come even on the richest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor their fathers; he shall distribute among them plunder, and spoil, and property. He shall devise plans against their strongholds, but only for a time.
Ommongnah neh paeng ah thaomthathueng la kun vetih a napa neh a napa kah a napa rhoek loh a saii uh noek pawt te a saii ni. Kutbuem neh hnorhawt khaw amih ham khuehtawn la a haeh ni. A tuetang bangla a kopoek neh hmuencak te a moeh ni.
25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall wage war in battle with an extremely large and powerful army; but he shall not stand; for they shall devise plans against him.
Tuithim manghai neh tatthai pilnu taengah a thadueng neh a thinko te a haeng ni. Tuithim manghai khaw caemtloek khuiah tatthai neh muep huek uh vetih pilnu khungdaeng ni. Tedae anih te kopoek neh a moeh uh dongah pai thai mahpawh.
26 Yes, those who eat of his royal food shall seek to destroy him, and his army shall be swept away; and many shall fall slain.
A buh aka ca rhoek long pataeng amah te a bawt uh vetih amah caem rhoek te a muelh vaengah rhok la muep cungku uh ni.
27 As for both these kings, their minds shall be fixed on evil, and they shall speak lies at the table; but it shall not succeed; for still the end shall be at the appointed time.
Amih manghai rhoi tah a thinko ah boethae neh caboei pakhat dongah laithae a thui rhoi dae thaihtak mahpawh. A khoning vaengah a bawtnah koep om ni.
28 Then shall he return into his land with great property; and his mind shall be against the holy covenant. And he shall take action, and then return to his own land.
Khuehtawn neh amah kho la muep mael sitoe cakhaw a thinko ah cimcaihnah paipi a poe nen ni amah kho la a mael eh.
29 At the appointed time he shall return, and come into the south; but this time the outcome shall not be as it was before.
A khoning vaengah tah mael vetih tuithim la cet ni. Tedae lamhma kah bangla lamhnuk ah om mahpawh.
30 For ships from Kittim shall come against him; therefore he shall be intimidated, and shall turn back, and be enraged against the holy covenant, and shall take action. He shall turn back, and show regard to those who forsake the holy covenant.
Anih te Kittim timbaw a paan vaengah pae vetih mael ni. Cimcaihnah paipi te kosi a hong vetih a rhoi ni. A mael vaengah cimcaihnah paipi aka hnoo te a yakming ni.
31 Forces shall come at his order, and they shall profane the sanctuary and the fortress, and shall take away the daily burnt offering, and they shall set up the abomination that causes desolation.
Amah kah a bantha khaw pai uh vetih lunghim rhokso a poeih uh ni. Sainoek te a phaelh uh vetih aka pong rhoek kah sarhingkoi a khueh uh ni.
32 And those who act wickedly toward the covenant he shall corrupt by smooth words; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and take action.
Paipi aka boe sak rhoek khaw hoemdawk loh a poeih ni. Tedae a Pathen aka ming pilnam tah a moem uh vetih a rhoi uh ni.
33 And those who are wise among the people shall instruct many; yet they shall fall by the sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder for some time.
Pilnam aka cangbam rhoek tah tumca dongah, hmaisai neh, tamna neh, kutbuem tue neh paloe uh cakhaw a yet taengah a yakming sak ni.
34 Now when they shall fall, they shall receive a little help. And many shall join with them insincerely.
A paloe uh ham vaengah khaw bomkung loh bet a bom uh vetih amih taengah olhnal rhoek muep naep uh ni.
35 Some of those who are wise shall fall, to be refined, purified and cleansed until the time of the end; for the appointed time is still to come.
Lungming khui lamkah khaw paloe uh suidae, amih te picai ham neh coelh ham, a bawtnah tue hil koep tingtunnah dongah a khueh ham dongah ni.
36 And the king shall do as he pleases. And he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak outrageous things against the God of gods. And he shall prosper until the indignation is accomplished; for that which is decreed shall be done.
Manghai loh a kolonah bangla a saii ni. Amah pomsang uh vetih pathen boeih lakah pantai ni. Pathen rhoek kah Pathen taengah khobaerhambae la cal ni. Tedae a oltloek a saii coeng dongah kosi a bawt duela thaihtak ni.
37 Neither shall he regard the gods of his fathers, nor the one desired by women, nor show regard to any other god, because he shall magnify himself above all.
A napa rhoek kah pathen te yakming pawt vetih huta sahnaih te khaw, pathen cungkuem te khaw yakming mahpawh. Tedae a cungkuem soah pomsang uh ni.
38 But instead he shall honor the god of fortresses; a god whom his fathers did not know shall he honor with gold and silver, and with valuable stones, and costly gifts.
Te yueng la lunghim pathen te a thangpom ni. A napa rhoek loh a ming uh mueh pathen te sui neh, cak neh, lung vang neh, hlangthen neh a thangpom ni.
39 And he shall deal with the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god. Whoever acknowledges him he shall grant considerable honor; and he shall make them rulers over many, and shall divide the land for a price.
Kholong pathen neh lunghim hmuencak te a saii ni. Te te aka hmat, aka hmat tah thangpomnah a yet sak ni. Amih te a yet soah a taemrhai vetih khohmuen te a phu la a tael pah ni.
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south attack him. And the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall invade countries, and pass through like a flood.
A bawtnah tue ah anih te tuithim manghai loh a thoeh ni. Tlangpuei manghai khaw anih taengah leng neh, marhang caem neh, sangpho neh muep hli ni. Khohmuen la a kun vaengah a muelh doela kat ni.
41 He shall enter also into the beautiful land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall be delivered out of his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the foremost of the sons of Ammon.
Kirhang khohmuen la a kun vaengah muep paloe uh ni. Tedae Edom, Moab neh Ammon koca kah tanglue rhoek he tah anih kut lamloh loeih uh ni.
42 He shall reach out his hand also on other countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
Khohmuen tom ah a kut a tueih vetih Egypt kho pataeng loeihnah ham om mahpawh.
43 But he shall have control over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the riches of Egypt; and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his feet.
Sui neh cak a thuhnah te a taemrhai ni. Egypt, Lubim neh Kushi kah sanaep boeih te a khokan dongah a khueh ni.
44 But news out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him; and he shall go out with tremendous rage to destroy and utterly sweep away many.
Tedae khocuk lamkah neh tlangpuei lamkah olthang loh anih a let sak ni. Te vaengah mitmoeng sak ham neh bit thup hamla kosi len neh ha pai ni.
45 And he shall pitch his royal tents between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain. Yet he shall come to his end, with no one to help him.
A tongmang dap te tuili kah laklo cimcaihnah kirhang tlang ah a tuk ni. Tedae a bawtnah te a pha vaengah anih aka bom om mahpawh.
