Daniel 8
1 In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar, a vision appeared to me, even to me, Daniel, after that which appeared to me at the first.
Na mobu ya misato ya bokonzi ya mokonzi Balitazari, ngai, Daniele, nazwaki emoniseli moko ya sika, sima na oyo nazwaki liboso.
2 I saw the vision. Now it was so, that when I saw, I was in the citadel of Susa, which is in the province of Elam. I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai.
Kati na emoniseli yango, nazalaki kotala mpe namimonaki lokola kati na Size, engumba batonga makasi, kati na etuka ya Elami; kati na emoniseli yango kaka, namimonaki lisusu lokola natelemi pembeni ya moluka Ulayi.
3 Then I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, a ram which had two horns stood before the river. The two horns were high, but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
Natombolaki miso na ngai na likolo mpe namonaki, liboso na ngai, meme moko ya mobali etelemi pembeni ya moluka; ezalaki na maseke mibale ya milayi makasi, kasi moko kati na maseke yango, oyo ebotaki sima, elekaki mosusu na molayi.
4 I saw the ram pushing westward, northward, and southward. No animals could stand before him. There wasn’t any who could deliver out of his hand, but he did according to his will, and magnified himself.
Bongo, namonaki meme ya mobali ezali kobeta na ngambo ya weste, ya nor mpe na sude. Nyama moko te ekokaki kobundisa yango mpe moto moko te akokaki kokangola soki ekangi yango. Ezalaki kosala nyonso oyo yango elingi mpe ezalaki kokola.
5 As I was considering, behold, a male goat came from the west over the surface of the whole earth, and didn’t touch the ground. The goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
Wana nazalaki kokanisa na tina na yango, ntaba moko ya mobali eyaki wuta na ngambo ya weste; ezalaki kotambola mabele mobimba na kozanga konyata yango. Ntaba yango ya mobali ezalaki na liseke moko ya monene na kati-kati ya miso na yango;
6 He came to the ram that had the two horns, which I saw standing before the river, and ran on him in the fury of his power.
eyaki kino epai ya meme ya mobali oyo namonaki etelemi pembeni ya moluka mpe ezalaki na maseke mibale; ebetaki yango makasi, na maseki te.
7 I saw him come close to the ram, and he was moved with anger against him, and struck the ram, and broke his two horns. There was no power in the ram to stand before him; but he cast him down to the ground and trampled on him. There was no one who could deliver the ram out of his hand.
Namonaki ntaba yango kopusana pene ya meme ya mobali na kanda makasi, ebetaki meme ya mobali mpe ebukaki yango maseke nyonso mibale; meme ezalaki ata na makasi te ya kobundisa ntaba. Boye, ntaba ebwakaki meme na mabele mpe enyataki yango; mpe ezalaki na moto moko te mpo na kobikisa meme ya mobali na maboko ya ntaba wana.
8 The male goat magnified himself exceedingly. When he was strong, the great horn was broken; and instead of it there came up four notable horns toward the four winds of the sky.
Ntaba ya mobali ekolaki makasi; kasi tango ekomaki lisusu na nguya makasi, liseke na yango ya monene ebukanaki. Maseke minei ya minene ebotaki na esika ya liseke wana moko mpe etalaki na bangambo minei ya likolo.
9 Out of one of them came out a little horn which grew exceedingly great—toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious land.
Bongo, wuta na moko kati na maseke nyonso minei, liseke moko ya moke ebimaki. Ekolaki makasi, mpe nguya na yango ekomaki na ngambo ya sude, ya este mpe na ngambo ya Mokili oyo eleki kitoko.
10 It grew great, even to the army of the sky; and it cast down some of the army and of the stars to the ground and trampled on them.
Ekolaki lisusu kino na mampinga ya likolo, ebwakaki na mabele ndambo ya mampinga yango mpe ndambo ya minzoto, mpe enyataki yango.
11 Yes, it magnified itself, even to the prince of the army; and it took away from him the continual burnt offering, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
Emitombolaki kino kotia tembe na Mokonzi ya mampinga, elongolaki mbeka ya mokolo na mokolo na losambo mpe ebebisaki Esika na Ye ya bule elongo na miboko na yango.
12 The army was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering through disobedience. It cast down truth to the ground, and it did its pleasure and prospered.
Likolo ya botomboki ya bato liboso ya Nzambe, mampinga ya likolo ekomaki na se ya bokonzi ya liseke elongo na mbeka ya mokolo na mokolo. Liseke yango ezalaki kolonga na makambo nyonso oyo ezalaki kosala mpe ebwakaki solo na mabele.
13 Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who spoke, “How long will the vision about the continual burnt offering, and the disobedience that makes desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the army to be trodden under foot be?”
Nayokaki mosantu moko koloba, mpe mosantu mosusu kotuna ye: — Makambo oyo etalisami na emoniseli ekosala mikolo boni? Mbeka ya mokolo na mokolo ekopesama lisusu te mikolo boni? Botomboki oyo ememaka pasi ekosala mikolo boni? Mikolo boni Esika ya bule mpe mampinga ekotiama na se ya matambe?
14 He said to me, “To two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings. Then the sanctuary will be cleansed.”
Alobaki na ngai: — Ekosalema bapokwa nkoto moko na nkama moko na tuku mitano mpe batongo nkoto moko na nkama moko na tuku mitano; sima na yango nde Esika ya bule ekobulisama lisusu mpo na losambo.
15 When I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, I sought to understand it. Then behold, there stood before me someone with the appearance of a man.
Wana ngai, Daniele, nazalaki komona emoniseli yango na makanisi mpe koluka kososola yango, namonaki lokola moto moko atelemi liboso na ngai.
16 I heard a man’s voice between the banks of the Ulai, which called and said, “Gabriel, make this man understand the vision.”
Nayokaki mongongo moko lokola ya moto wuta na kati-kati ya moluka Ulayi; ezalaki kobelela: — Gabrieli, limbolela moto oyo emoniseli.
17 So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was frightened, and fell on my face; but he said to me, “Understand, son of man, for the vision belongs to the time of the end.”
Lokola azalaki kopusana pene ya esika oyo nazalaki, nakomaki na somo mpe nakweyaki elongi kino na mabele. Alobaki na ngai: — Mwana na moto, sosola malamu ete emoniseli oyo etali makambo ya suka ya tango.
18 Now as he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep with my face toward the ground; but he touched me and set me upright.
Wana azalaki koloba na ngai, nakomaki na pongi moko ya makasi, mpe nakweyaki elongi kino na mabele; kasi asimbaki ngai mpe atelemisaki ngai, kaka na esika oyo nazalaki.
19 He said, “Behold, I will make you know what will be in the latter time of the indignation, for it belongs to the appointed time of the end.
Bongo, alobaki na ngai: — Nakoyebisa yo makambo oyo ekosalema na sima na tango ya kanda ya Nzambe, pamba te emoniseli oyo etali tango oyo ekatama mpo na mikolo ya suka.
20 The ram which you saw, that had the two horns, they are the kings of Media and Persia.
Maseke mibale ya meme ya mobali oyo omonaki ezali kolakisa bakonzi ya Medi mpe ya Persi.
21 The rough male goat is the king of Greece. The great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.
Ntaba mobali ya bapwale ebele ezali mokonzi ya Grese, mpe liseke monene oyo ezali na kati-kati ya miso na yango ezali mokonzi ya liboso.
22 As for that which was broken, in the place where four stood up, four kingdoms will stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.
Tango liseke yango ebukanaki, maseke minei ebimaki na esika na yango: ezali kolakisa ete babokonzi minei ekobima wuta na ekolo oyo, kasi nguya na yango ekokokana te.
23 “In the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have come to the full, a king of fierce face, and understanding riddles, will stand up.
Na suka ya bokonzi na yango, tango batomboki bakokolisa mabe na bango kino na suka, mokonzi moko ya motema makasi mpe ya mayele mabe akobima;
24 His power will be mighty, but not by his own power. He will destroy awesomely, and will prosper in what he does. He will destroy the mighty ones and the holy people.
akokoma makasi koleka, kasi na nguya na ye moko te. Akobebisa mokili na ndenge ya kokamwa mpe akolonga na makambo nyonso oyo akosala; akoboma bato ya makasi mpe basantu.
25 Through his policy he will cause deceit to prosper in his hand. He will magnify himself in his heart, and he will destroy many in their security. He will also stand up against the prince of princes, but he will be broken without human hands.
Na mayele mabe na ye, akolonga kokosa bato ebele mpe akokoma na motema ya lofundu; akoboma bato ebele oyo bazalaki na bango na kimia mpe akotelemela Mokambi ya bakambi, kasi akobebisama na nguya ya moto te.
26 “The vision of the evenings and mornings which has been told is true; but seal up the vision, for it belongs to many days to come.”
Emoniseli ya bapokwa mpe ya batongo oyo epesamelaki yo ezali ya solo, kasi bomba yango malamu, pamba te etali makambo oyo ekosalema na mikolo ekoya.
27 I, Daniel, fainted, and was sick for some days. Then I rose up and did the king’s business. I wondered at the vision, but no one understood it.
Ngai, Daniele, nalembaki penza nzoto mpe nabelaki mikolo ebele. Sima na yango, natelemaki mpe nazongelaki kolandela misala ya mokonzi. Emoniseli oyo nazwaki ekamwisaki ngai mpe nazalaki kososola yango te.
