< Daniel 11 >

1 “As for me, during the first year that Darius was king, I helped and encouraged Michael.”
И ја прве године Дарија Мидијанина стадох да Му помогнем, и да Га поткрепим.
2 [The angel also said], “And what I am going to reveal to you now will truly [happen]. There will be three more kings to rule Persia, [one after the other]. Then there will be a fourth king, who will be much richer than the others. As a result of [his giving] a lot of money [to people, they will enable him to] become very powerful. Then he will incite/persuade many nations [HYP] [to fight] against the kingdom of Greece.
А сада ћу ти казати истину. Ево, још ће три цара настати у Персији; и четврти ће бити богатији од свих, и кад се укрепи богатством својим, све ће подигнути на грчко царство.
3 Then a very powerful king will appear [in Greece]. He will rule over a very large empire, and he will do whatever he wants to do.
Потом ће настати силан цар, и владаће великом државом и радиће шта хоће.
4 But when he has become very powerful, [he will die]. Then his kingdom will be divided into four parts. Kings who are not his descendants will rule, but they will not be as powerful as he was.
А како нестане, расуће се царство његово и разделиће се у четири ветра небеска, не међу натражје његово нити с влашћу с којом је он владао, јер ће се царство његово укинути и допасти другима, а не њима.
5 Then the King of Egypt [MTY] will become very powerful. But one of his army generals will become more powerful than he is, and he will rule a bigger area.
И цар јужни осилиће, и један од кнезова његових, и биће силнији од њега, и владаће, и држава ће његова бити велика.
6 Several years later, the King of Egypt and the King of Syria will make an (alliance/agreement to help each other) [MTY]. The King of Syria will give his daughter to the King of Egypt to become his wife. But she will not be able to influence him [MTY] very long, and that woman, her husband, her child, and her servants will all be killed/assassinated.
И после неколико година они ће се опријатељити, и кћи јужног цара доћи ће к цару северном да учини погодбу; али она неће сачувати силе мишици, нити ће се он одржати мишицом својом, него ће бити предана и она и они који је доведу и син њен и онај који јој буде помагао у то време.
7 Soon after that, one of her relatives [MET] will become King [of Egypt]. His army will attack the army of Syria. They will enter the fortress of the soldiers of Syria and defeat them.
Потом ће од изданка из корена њеног настати један на место његово, који ће доћи с војском својом и ударити на градове цара северног, и биће их и освојиће их.
8 They will return to Egypt, taking the statues of the gods [of the people of Syria] and many items made of silver and gold that had been dedicated to those gods. Then for several years his army will not attack [the army of] the King of Syria.
И богове ће њихове и кнезове њихове са закладама њиховим драгоценим златним и сребрним однети у ропство у Мисир, и остаће неколико година јачи од цара северног.
9 Then the army of the King of Syria will invade Egypt, but they will soon return to Syria.
И тако ће цар јужни доћи у своје царство, и вратиће се у своју земљу.
10 However, the sons of the King of Syria will prepare to start a war, and they will gather a large army. That army will march [south] and spread all over [Israel] like a huge flood. They will attack a strong fortress [in the south of Israel].
Али ће синови његови заратити, и скупиће велику војску; и један ће доћи изненада, и поплавити и проћи; и вративши се ратоваће до града његовог.
11 Then the King of Egypt, having become very angry, will march [with his army north] from Egypt and fight against the army of Syria. The King [of Syria] will gather together a very large army, but [the army of the King of Egypt] will defeat them.
Тада ће се разљутити цар јужни, и изаћи ће и ратоваће с њим, с царем северним, и подигнуће велику војску, те ће му бити дата у руке војска.
12 The King of Egypt will become very proud because of [his army] having killed a very large number of soldiers [from Syria], but his army will not continue to win battles.
И кад разбије војску, понеће се срце његово, и побиће хиљаде, али се неће укрепити.
13 The King of Syria will again gather together an army that will be bigger than the one that he had before. After a few years, he will again march [south on their way to Egypt] with a large army and a lot of equipment [for fighting battles].
Јер ће цар северни опет дигнути војску већу од прве; и после неколико година доћи ће с великом војском и с великим благом.
14 At that time, many people in Egypt will rebel against their king. In order to fulfill a vision that [one of their leaders had seen], some violent/lawless people from your country [of Israel] will also rebel [in order to not be controlled by Egypt any more], but they will be defeated.
И у то ће време многи устати на цара јужног; и зликовци од твог народа подигнуће се да се потврди утвара, и попадаће.
15 Then the King of Syria will come [south with his army] and pile up dirt against the walls of a city that is well protected, and they will [break through those walls and] they will capture the city. The soldiers from Egypt [who have come to defend that city], even the best troops, will not be strong enough to continue to fight.
И доћи ће цар северни, и начиниће опкопе, и узеће тврде градове, и мишице јужног цара неће одолети ни изабрани народ његов, нити ће бити силе да се опре.
16 So the King of Syria will do whatever he wants to, and no one will be able to oppose him. [His army] will occupy the glorious land [of Israel] and completely control/subdue it.
И онај дошав на њ чиниће шта хоће, и неће бити никога да му се опре; и зауставиће се у красној земљи, коју ће потрти својом руком.
17 Then he will decide to march [south] with all the soldiers from his kingdom. He will make an alliance with the King [of Egypt] and in order that his own daughter will [help him to] destroy the kingdom of Egypt, he will give her to the King of Egypt to become his wife. But that plan will fail.
Потом ће окренути да дође са силом свега царства свог, али ће се погодити с њим, и даће му кћер за жену да би га упропастио, али се она неће држати, нити ће бити с њим.
18 After that, the [army of] the King of Syria will attack the regions that are close to the [Mediterranean] Sea, and his [army] will conquer many of them. But [the army of] a leader from another country will defeat the army of Syria and will stop their king from continuing to be proud. He will do to the King of Syria what he deserved for being very insolent.
Потом ће се окренути на острва, и освојиће многа; али ће један војвода прекинути срамоту коју чини, и обориће на њ срамоту његову.
19 Then the King of Syria will return to the fortresses in his own land. But he will be defeated, and he will (die/be assassinated) [EUP] there.
Потом ће се окренути ка градовима своје земље, и спотакнуће се и пашће, и неће се више наћи.
20 Then another man will (succeed him/become king). That king will send one of his officers to oppress the people [in Jerusalem] by forcing them to pay big taxes, in order to get more money for his kingdom. But after a few years [HYP] that king will die, but he will not die as a result of people being angry with him or in a battle.
И на његово ће место настати који ће послати настојника у слави царској; али ће за мало дана погинути без гнева и без боја.
21 The next King of Syria will be an evil man who, [because he will not be the son of the previous king, ] will not have the right to become king. But he will come when people do not expect it, and he will become king by tricking the people.
А на његово ће место доћи незнатан човек, коме није намењена част царска; али ће доћи мирно и освојиће царство ласкањем.
22 When his army advances, they will attack any armies that oppose him and destroy those armies. They will also kill God’s Supreme Priest.
И мишице које плаве он ће поплавити и поломити, па и кнеза с којим је учинио веру.
23 By making treaties/alliances with [the rulers of] other nations, he will deceive them, and he will become very powerful, even though he rules a nation that does not have a lot of people.
Јер удруживши се с њим учиниће превару, и дошавши надвладаће с мало народа.
24 Suddenly his [army] will invade a province that is very wealthy, and they will do things that none of his ancestors did: they will capture in battles all kinds of possessions from the people whom they defeat. Then the king will divide those possessions among his friends. He will also plan [for his army] to attack fortresses [in Egypt], but only for a short time.
И доћи ће мирно у родна места у земљи, и учиниће шта ни очеви његови ни очеви отаца његових не учинише, разделиће им плен и грабеж и благо, и смишљаће мисли на градове, за неко време.
25 He will courageously/boldly conscript/gather a large and powerful army to attack [the army of] the king of Egypt. But the King of Egypt will prepare to fight against them with a huge and powerful army. However, someone will deceive him, with the result that his plan will not be successful.
Потом ће подигнути силу своју и срце своје на цара јужног с великом војском; и цар ће јужни доћи у бој с великом и врло силном војском; али неће одолети, јер ће му се чинити невера.
26 Even his most trusted advisors will plan to get rid of him. His army will be defeated and many of his soldiers will be killed.
И који једу хлеб његов сатрће га; војска ће његова поплавити, и многи ће пасти побијени.
27 Then the two [kings who both want to rule that area] will sit down at the same table and eat together, but they will both lie to each other. Neither of them will get what he wants, because it will not be the time [that God] has determined/set [for them to rule Egypt].
И срце ће обојице царева радити о злу, и за једним ће столом лагати; али се неће извршити; јер ће крај још бити у одређено време.
28 [The army of] the King [of Syria] will return to Syria, taking with them all the valuable things [that they had captured]. The king will be determined to get rid of the Supreme Priest of the Jewish people. He will do what he wants to [in Israel], and then return to his own country.
И тако ће се вратити у своју земљу с великим благом; и срце ће се његово обратити на свети завет, и кад изврши, вратиће се у своју земљу.
29 When it is the time that God has decided, the King of Syria [and his army] will invade Egypt again. But this time he will not be successful like he was before.
У одређено ће време опет доћи на југ; али други пут неће бити као први пут.
30 The army of Rome will come in ships and oppose his army and cause him to be afraid. So he will be very angry, and [with his army] he will return [to Israel] and try to get rid of the Supreme Priest. The King of Syria will do what those who have abandoned the Jewish religion advise/want him to do for them.
Јер ће доћи на њ лађе китејске, и он ће се ојадити, те ће се вратити; и разљутиће се на свети завет, и извршиће; и вративши се сложиће се с онима који остављају свети завет.
31 Some of his soldiers will do things to (defile the temple/cause the temple to become unholy for them). They will prevent the priests from offering sacrifices each day, and they will put [in the temple] something that is disgusting/abominable.
И војска ће стајати уза њ, и оскврниће светињу у граду, и укинути жртву свагдашњу и поставиће гнусобу пустошну.
32 By deceiving those who have abandoned the Jewish religion, he will persuade them to (become his supporters/help him to do what he wants to do). But those who are devoted to their God will firmly oppose them.
И који су безбожни према завету, он ће их ласкањем отпадити; али народ који познаје Бога свог охрабриће се и извршиће.
33 And wise [Israeli] leaders will teach others also. But for a while, some of those wise leaders will be killed in battles, and some will be burned to death, and some will be robbed, and some will be put in prison.
И разумни у народу научиће многе, и падаће од мача и огња, ропства и грабежа много времена.
34 While God’s people are being persecuted, some people will help them a little bit, although some of those who help them will not do it sincerely.
Али падајући добиће малу помоћ; и многи ће пристати с њима дволичећи.
35 Some of those wise leaders will be killed [EUP], but as a result the others will be purified [DOU]. This suffering will continue until it is the time [that God] has appointed [for it to] end.
И од разумних ће пасти неки да би се окушали и очистили и убелили до рока, јер ће још бити рок.
36 The King [of Syria] will do what he wants to. He will boast and say that he is greater than any god. He will even revile the Supreme God. He will be able to do what he wants until the time that [God] punishes [MTY] him. [God] will accomplish what he has planned.
И тај ће цар чинити шта хоће, и подигнуће се и узвисиће се изнад сваког бога, и чудно ће говорити на Бога над боговима, и биће срећан докле се не сврши гнев, јер ће се извршити шта је одређено.
37 The [King of Syria] will ignore the god that his ancestors worshiped and the god that many women love. He will ignore every god, because he will think that he is greater than all of them.
Неће марити ни за богове својих отаца ни за љубав женску, нити ће за ког бога марити, него ће се узвишавати нада све.
38 But he will honor the god who [people think] protects fortresses. That is a god whom his ancestors did not honor. And he will give gold, silver, (jewels/very valuable stones) and other expensive gifts to that god.
И на место Бога Најсилнијег славиће бога ког оци његови не знаше, славиће златом и сребром и драгим камењем и закладама.
39 He will ask that god (OR, people who worship a god) from another country to help him to defend his fortresses. He will greatly honor those who allow him [to be their ruler]. He will appoint [some of] them to important positions in the government; and to reward them, he will give them some land.
И учиниће да градови Бога Најсилнијег буду бога туђег; које позна умножиће им славу и учиниће их господарима над многима и разделиће земљу место плате.
40 But when his time [to rule] is almost ended, [the army of] the King of Egypt will attack his [army]. The [army of the] King of Syria will fight against them furiously [SIM]. [His soldiers will be driving] chariots and [riding on] horses and [traveling in] many ships. His army will invade many countries and [spread all over those countries] like a flood [MET].
А у последње време јужни ће се цар побити с њим; и цар ће северни ударити на њ као вихор с колима и коњицима и с многим лађама, и ушавши у земље поплавиће и проћи.
41 They will invade the glorious land [of Israel] and kill [EUP] tens of thousands of people. But the people of the Edom people-group and the people of the Moab people-group and the people of the Ammon people-group who are still alive will escape.
И доћи ће у красну земљу, и многи ће пропасти, а ови ће се избавити од његових руку: едомска, моавска и главни део синова Амонових.
42 When the army of Syria invades other countries, even the people of Egypt will be defeated.
И посегнуће руком својом на земље, и земља мисирска неће умакнути.
43 The army of Syria will take away from Egypt gold, silver, and other valuable items. The people of Libya and Ethiopia will allow [the King of Syria] to rule over them.
И освојиће благо у злату и у сребру и све закладе мисирске; и Ливијани и Етиопљани ићи ће за њим.
44 But he will become very frightened/alarmed when he hears reports about what is happening in the east and in the north. So he will become very angry, and send his army to fight furiously and kill many [of their enemies].
Али ће га гласови са истока и са севера смести, те ће изаћи са великим гневом да погуби и затре многе.
45 The [King of Syria] will set up his royal tents in the area between the [Mediterranean] Sea and the hill [in Jerusalem] on which the temple (exists/was built). But he will be killed there, because there will be no one to help him.”
И разапеће шаторе двора свог међу морима на красној светој гори; и кад дође к свом крају, нико му неће помоћи.
