< Daniel 9 >

1 In the first year of Daryavesh the son of Achashyerosh, of Median descent, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans—
Tamin’ ny taona voalohany nanjakan’ i Dariosa, zanak’ i Ahasoerosy, avy amin’ ny taranaky ny Mediana, izay nampanjakaina tamin’ ny fanjakan’ ny Kaldeana,
2 in the first year of his reign I, Daniel, understood from the books the number of the years about which the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, for the completion of the desolation of Jerusalem, seventy years.
tamin’ ny taona voalodany nanjakany, izaho Daniela nahalala tamin’ ny boky ny isan’ ny taona nampahafantarin’ ny tenin’ i Jehovah an’ i Jeremia mpaminany, izay hahataperan’ ny fito-polo taona amin’ ny hahafoanan’ i Jerosalema.
3 And I turned to the Lord God, to seek by prayer and petitions, with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
Ary nampanatrehiko an’ Andriamanitra Tompo ny tavako hitady izay hivavahana sy hifonana amin’ ny fifadian-kanina ny lamba fisaonana ary ny lavenona.
4 I prayed to the LORD my God, and made this confession, "O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant and loving kindness with those who love him and keep his commandments.
Ary nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro aho ka nitsotra hoe: Indrisy! Tompo ô, Andriamanitra lehibe sy mahatahotra, mitandrina ny fanekena sy ny famindram-po ho amin’ izay tia Azy sy mitandrina ny didiny,
5 We have sinned, and have done what is wrong and wicked, and have rebelled, even turning aside from your commandments and from your ordinances.
efa nanota izahay sady nanao meloka ary nanao ratsy sy niodina, eny, efa niala tamin’ ny didinao sy ny fitsipikao izahay,
6 Neither have we listened to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our leaders, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
ary tsy nohenoinay ny mpaminany mpanomponao, izay niteny tamin’ ny anaranao tamin’ ny mpanjakanay sy ny mpanapaka anay sy ny razanay ary ny vahoaka rehetra.
7 Lord, righteousness belongs to you, but to us open shame, as at this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, through all the countries where you have driven them, because of their unfaithful deeds that they have committed against you.
Anao ny fahamarinana, Tompo ô, fa anay kosa ny fangaihaizana, tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao, dia an’ ny Joda sy ny mponina any Jerosalema ary ny Isiraely rehetra, na ny akaiky na ny lavitra, dia any amin’ ny tany rehetra izay efa nandroahanao azy noho ny fahadisoany izay nandisoany taminao;
8 LORD, to us belongs open shame, to our kings, to our leaders, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against you.
eny, anay ny fangaihaizana, Tompo ô, dia an’ ny mpanjakanay sy ny mpanapaka anay ary ny razanay, satria efa nanota taminao izahay.
9 To the Lord our God belong compassion and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him.
An’ ny Tompo Andriamanitray kosa ny famindram-po sy ny famelan-keloka, satria efa niodina taminy izahay
10 And have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
ka tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray, mba handeha araka ny lalàny izay nasainy napetraky ny mpaminany mpanompony teo anoloanay.
11 Yes, all Israel has transgressed your law, and turned away, refusing to obey your voice. Therefore has the curse been poured out on us, and the oath that is written in the Law of Moses the servant of God, for we have sinned against you.
Eny, ny Isiraely rehetra efa nandika ny lalànao ka niala, fa tsy nihaino ny feonao, ka dia naidina taminay ny ozona sy ny fianianana izay voasoratra ao amin’ ny lalàn’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ Andriamanitra, satria efa nanota taminy izahay.
12 He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our rulers who ruled us, by bringing on us a great calamity; for under the whole heaven such has not been done as has been done on Jerusalem.
Ary notanterahiny ny teniny, izay nolazainy hamelezana anay sy ny mpitsaranay izay nitsara anay, ka nataony niharan-doza lehibe izahay, fa tetỳ ambanin’ ny lanitra rehetra dia tsy mbola nisy natao tahaka izay natao tany Jerosalema.
13 As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this calamity has come on us. Yet have we not tried to gain the favor of the LORD our God, that we should turn from our iniquities, and have discernment in your truth.
Araka ny voasoratra ao amin’ ny lalàn’ i Mosesy no nahatongavan’ izao loza rehetra izao taminay; nefa tsy nifona teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray izahay hialanay amin’ ny helokay sy hahafantaranay ny fahamarinanao.
14 Therefore has the LORD watched over the calamity, and brought it on us, for the LORD our God is just in all he has done, and we have not obeyed his voice.
Koa izany no nitehirizan’ i Jehovah ny loza, ka nataony mihatra aminay, fa marina Jehovah Andriamanitray amin’ ny asany rehetra izay efa nataony; fa izahay no tsy nihaino ny feony.
15 "And now, Lord our God, who has brought your people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and have made a name for yourself, even to this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
Koa ankehitriny, Tompo Andriamanitray ô, Izay nitondra ny olonao nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta tamin’ ny tanana mahery ka nanao anarana ho Anao tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao, efa nanota izahay, efa nanao ratsy izahay.
16 Lord, according to all your righteousness, let your anger and please let your wrath be turned away from your city Jerusalem, your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a reproach to all who are around us.
Tompo ô, mifona aminao aho, araka ny fahamarinanao rehetra, aoka re hionona ny fahatezeranao sy ny fahaviniranao amin’ i Jerosalema tanànanao, tendrombohitrao masìna, fa ny helokay sy ny fahotan’ ny razanay no nahatonga an’ i Jerosalema sy ny olonao ho latsa amin’ izay rehetra manodidina anay.
17 Now therefore, our God, listen to the prayer of your servant, and to his petitions, and cause your face to shine on your sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.
Fa ankehitriny, ry Andriamanitray ô, henoy ny fivavaky ny mpanomponao sy ny fifonany, ary ampamirapirato ny tavanao amin’ ny fitoeranao masìna izay efa foana, satria Tompo Hianao.
18 My God, turn your ear, and hear; open your eyes, and see our desolation, and the city which is called by your name. For we do not present our petitions before you for our righteousness, but for your great mercy.
Andriamanitra ô, atongilano ny sofinao, ka mihainoa; ahirato ny masonao, ka jereo ny fahafoananay sy ny tanàna izay nantsoina amin’ ny anaranao; fa tsy amin’ ny fahamarinanay no andoaranay ny fifonanay eto anatrehanao, fa amin’ ny halehiben’ ny indrafonao.
19 Lord, hear. Lord, forgive. Lord, listen and take action. Do not delay, for your own sake, my God, because your city and your people are called by your name."
Tompo ô, mandrenesa, Tompo ô, mamelà heloka; Tompo ô, mihainoa, ka miasà; aza ela Hianao, ry Andriamanitro ô noho ny aminao; fa ny tanànanao sy ny olonao dia nantsoina amin’ ny anaranao.
20 While I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my petition before the LORD my God for the holy mountain of my God,
Ary raha mbola niteny sy nivavaka sy niaiky ny fahotako mbamin’ ny fahotan’ ny Isiraely fireneko aho ka nandoatra ny fifonako teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro ho an’ ny tendrombohitra masin’ Andriamanitro,
21 while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, came to me in my weariness about the time of the evening sacrifice.
eny, raha mbola niteny nivavaka aho, dia, indro, ilay lehilahy Gabriela izay hitako tamin’ ny fahitana voalohany, dia nampanidinina faingana ka nanatona ahy tokony ho tamin’ ny fotoan’ ny fanatitra hariva.
22 He instructed me, and talked with me, and said, "Daniel, I have now come forth to give you wisdom and understanding.
Ary izy nampahalala ahy sy niresaka tamiko ka nanao hoe: Ry Daniela ô, avy hampahazava saina anao aho.
23 At the beginning of your petitions the commandment went forth, and I have come to tell you, for you are greatly loved. Therefore consider the matter, and understand the vision.
Tamin’ ny niantombohan’ ny fivavakao dia nisy teny nivoaka, ka dia tonga hanambara aminao aho, satria malala indrindra ianao; koa diniho ny teny, ary aoka ho fantatrao ny fahitana.
24 Seventy weeks are decreed on your people and on your holy city, to put an end to the transgression, and to make an end to sin, and to atone for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy place.
Fito-polo herinandro no voatendry ho an’ ny firenenao sy ny tanànanao masìna, hahatapaka ny fahadisoana sy hanampina ny fahotana, ary hanao fanavotana noho ny heloka sy hampiditra fahamarinana mandrakizay, ary hanisy tombo-kase ny fahitana sy ny faminaniana sy hanosotra izay masìna indrindra.
25 Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem until the time of the Messiah, the Prince, there shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks. It shall be built again, with open spaces and a moat, but in times of distress.
Koa aoka ho fantatrao sy ho azonao fa hatramin’ ny hivoahan’ ny didy hanavaozana sy hanamboarana an’ i Jerosalema ka hatramin’ i Mesia Andriana dia ho fito herinandro sy roa amby enim-polo herinandro; hamboarina indray ny lalana sy ny hady, dia amin’ izay andro mampahory.
26 After the sixty-two weeks the Messiah shall be cut off, and shall have nothing. And the people of a ruler who shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and his end shall come with a flood, and until the end there shall be war; desolations are decreed.
Ary rehefa afaka ny roa amby enim-polo herinandro, dia hovonoina ny Mesia ka tsy hanana; ary ny vahoaky ny mpanjaka izay ho avy dia handrava ny tanana sy ny fitoerana masìna; ary ny farany dia hisy safotra, ary hatramin’ ny farany dia hisy ady sy fandravana voatendry.
27 He shall make a firm covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease. And on the wing of abominations shall come one who destroys, and even until a complete destruction, until the decreed end is poured out on the one who destroys."
Ary hanorina fanekena ho herinandro amin’ ny maro izy ary hampitsahatra ny fanatitra alatsa-drà sy ny fanatitra hafa hatramin’ ny antsasaky ny herinandro, ary amin’ ny elatry ny fahavetavetana no nihavian’ ny mpandrava, hatramin’ ny fahafonganana voatendry, izay haidina amin’ ny mpandrava.
