Daniel 8

1 Iti maikatlo a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Belsazar, Siak a ni Daniel, ket adda nagparang kaniak a sirmata (kalpasan iti immuna a sirmata a nagparang kaniak).

In the third year of the rule of Belshazzar the king, a vision was seen by me, Daniel, after the one I saw at first.

2 Bayat ti panangkitkitak, nakitak iti sirmata, nga addaak iti nasarikedkedan a siudad ti Susa idiay probinsia ti Elam. Nakitak iti sirmata nga addaak iti abay ti Karayan Ulai.

And I saw in the vision; and when I saw it, I was in the strong town Shushan, which is in the country of Elam; and in the vision I was by the water-door of the Ulai.

3 Timmangadak ket nakitak iti sangoanak ti maysa a kalakian a karnero nga addaan kadagiti dua a sara, nga agtaktakder iti abay ti karayan. At-atiddog ti maysa a sara ngem ti sabali a sara, ngem nabunbuntog nga agtubo ti at-atiddog a sara ngem ti ab-ababa ket linumbaanna a dimmakkel daytoy.

And lifting up my eyes, I saw, there before the stream, a male sheep with two horns: and the two horns were high, but one was higher than the other, the higher one coming up last.

4 Nakitak nga agwangwang-it ti kalakian a karnero nga agturong iti laud, kalpasanna iti amianan, ken kalpasanna iti abagatan; awan ti sabali nga ayup a makaparmek kenkuana. Awan kadakuada ti makabael a mangispal iti siasinoman manipud iti pannakabalinna. Inaramidna ti aniaman a kayatna, ket nagbalin isuna a nabileg.

I saw the sheep pushing to the west and to the north and to the south; and no beasts were able to keep their place before him, and no one was able to get people out of his power; but he did whatever his pleasure was and made himself great.

5 Kabayatan a panpanunotek daytoy, nakakitaak iti maysa a bulog a kalding nga um-umay manipud iti laud, iti ngatoen ti entero a daga, kasta unay ti pardas ti tarayna, kasla saan nga agdisso dagiti sakana iti daga. Addaan iti dakkel a sara ti kalding iti nagbaetan dagiti matana.

And while I was giving thought to this, I saw a he-goat coming from the west over the face of all the earth without touching the earth: and the he-goat had a great horn between his eyes.

6 Nagturong isuna iti ayan ti kalakian a karnero nga addaan kadagiti dua a sara—nakitak ti karnero nga agtaktakder iti igid ti karayan—ket nakarungrungsot a nagtaray ti kalding nga agturong iti ayan ti karnero.

And he came to the two-horned sheep which I saw before the stream, rushing at him in the heat of his power.

7 Nakitak nga umas-asideg ti kalding iti karnero. Makapungtot unay isuna iti karnero, ket sinangdona ti karnero ket natukkol dagiti dua a sara daytoy. Awan ti kabaelan ti karnero a makiranget kenkuana. Tinumba isuna iti kalding iti daga ket impayatpayatna daytoy. Awan ti siasinoman a makaispal iti karnero manipud iti pannakabalinna.

And I saw him come right up to the sheep, and he was moved with wrath against him, attacking the sheep so that his two horns were broken; and the sheep had not strength to keep his place before him, but was pushed down on the earth and crushed under his feet: and there was no one to get the sheep out of his power.

8 Ket dimmakkel unay ti kalding. Ngem idi pimmigsa isuna, natukkol ti dakkel a sarana, ket iti nakaikkatan ti sarana, nagtubo dagiti uppat a dadakkel a sara a nakaturong kadagiti uppat nga angin dagiti langit.

And the he-goat became very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken, and in its place came up four other horns turned to the four winds of heaven.

9 Adda nagtubo a sabali a sara manipud iti maysa kadagitoy, bassit idi un-unana, ngem dimmakkel unay iti abagatan, iti daya, ken idiay nadayag a daga ti Israel.

And out of one of them came another horn, a little one, which became very great, stretching to the south and to the east and to the beautiful land.

10 Dimmakkel unay daytoy a kasla makigubat payen iti armada ti langit. Sumagmamano iti dayta nga armada ken sumagmamano kadagiti bituen ket naitappuak iti daga, ket impayatpayatna dagitoy.

And it became great, even as high as the army of heaven, pulling down some of the army, even of the stars, to the earth and crushing them under its feet.

11 Bimmileg unay daytoy, kabilbileg pay iti armada ti nadiosan a mangidadaulo. Ti kadawyan a daton a mapuoran ket innalada kenkuana, ken natulawan ti santuariona.

It made itself great, even as great as the lord of the army; and by it the regular burned offering was taken away, and the place overturned and the holy place made waste.

12 Gapu iti panagrebelde, maitedto ti armada iti sara ti kalding, ket maisardengto ti daton a mapuoran. Itinnagto ti sara ti kinapudno iti daga, ket agballiginto daytoy iti aniaman nga ar-aramidenna.

... against the regular burned offering; and ... crushed down to the earth, and it did its pleasure and things went well for it.

13 Kalpasanna, nangngegko ti maysa a nasantoan nga agsasao ket sungsungbatan isuna ti sabali a nasantoan. “Kasano kapaut dagitoy a banbanag, daytoy a sirmata maipapan iti daton a mapuoran, ti basol a mangyeg iti pannakadadael, ti pannakaiyawat ti santuario, ken ti panakaipayatpayat ti armada ti langit?”

Then there came to my ears the voice of a holy one talking; and another holy one said to that certain one who was talking, How long will the vision be while the regular burned offering is taken away, and the unclean thing causing fear is put up, and the holy place crushed under foot?

14 Kinunana kaniak, “Agpaut daytoy iti 2, 300 a rabii ken agsapa. Kalpasan dayta sumayaatto ti santuario.”

And he said to him, For two thousand, three hundred evenings and mornings; then the holy place will be made clean.

15 Idi nakitak ti sirmata, siak a ni Daniel ket pinadasko nga awaten daytoy. Ket adda nagtakder iti sangoanak nga aglanglanga a kasla maysa a tao.

And it came about that when I, Daniel, had seen this vision, I had a desire for the sense of it to be unfolded; and I saw one before me in the form of a man.

16 Nakangngegak iti timek ti tao nga agpukpukkaw iti nagbaetan dagiti teppang ti Karayan Ulai. Kinunana, “Gabriel, tulongam a maawatan daytoy a tao ti sirmata.”

And the voice of a man came to my ears between the sides of the Ulai, crying out and saying, Gabriel, make the vision clear to this man.

17 Isu nga immasideg isuna iti pagtaktakderak. Idi dimteng isuna, nagbutengak ket nagpaklebak iti daga. Kinunana kaniak, “Anak ti tao, awatem a ti sirmata ket para iti tiempo ti panungpalan.”

So he came and took his place near where I was; and when he came, I was full of fear and went down on my face: but he said to me, Let it be clear to you, O son of man; for the vision has to do with the time of the end.

18 Idi makisasao isuna kaniak, nakaturogak ti narnekan a sipapakleb iti daga. Ket sinagidnak ken pinatakdernak.

Now while he was talking to me, I went into a deep sleep with my face to the earth: but touching me, he put me on my feet where I had been.

19 Kinunana, “Kitaem, ipakitak kenka ti mapasamakto iti maud-udi a tiempo ti pungtot, gapu ta maseknan ti sirmata iti naikeddeng a tiempo iti panungpalan.

And he said, See, I will make clear to you what is to come in the later time of the wrath: for it has to do with the fixed time of the end.

20 Ket maipapan iti nakitam a kalakian a karnero, ti addaan kadagiti dua a sara— isuda dagiti ari ti Medes ken Persia.

The sheep which you saw with two horns, they are the kings of Media and Persia.

21 Ti bulog a kalding ket ti ari ti Grecia. Ti dakkel a sara iti nagbaetan dagiti matana ket ti umuna nga ari.

And the he-goat is the king of Greece: and the great horn between his eyes is the first king.

22 Ket maipapan iti sara a natukkol, iti disso a nagtuboan ti sabali nga uppat— tumaudto dagiti uppat a pagarian manipud iti nasionna, ngem saan a kabilbileg ti pannakabalinna.

And as for that which was broken, in place of which four came up, four kingdoms will come up from his nation, but not with his power.

23 Iti maud-udi a tiempo dagitoy a pagarian, inton agpatingga ti kinadakesda, tumaudto ti maysa a nakabutbuteng ti rupana nga ari a nalaing unay.

And in the later years of their kingdom, when their evil doings have become complete, there will come up a king full of pride and expert in dark sayings.

24 Nabilegto ti pannakabalinna— ngem saan a babaen iti bukodna a pannakabalin. Nalawanto ti dadaelenna, ket agballiginto isuna iti aniaman nga aramidenna. Dadaelennanto dagiti nabileg a tattao, tattao a nasantoan.

And his power will be great, and he will be purposing strange things. And all will go well for him and he will do his pleasure; and he will send destruction on the strong ones.

25 Babaen iti kinasikapna rumang-ayto iti panangallilaw iti imana. Tumakderto pay isuna a bumusor iti Ari dagiti ari, ken maparmekto isuna— ngem saan a babaen iti pannakabalin ti tao.

And his designs will be turned against the holy people, causing deceit to do well in his hand; in his heart he will make himself great, and send destruction on numbers who are living unconscious of their danger; and he will put himself up against the prince of princes; but he will be broken, though not by men's hands.

26 Ti sirmata a naibaga maipapan kadagiti rabii ken kadagiti agsapa ket pudno. Ngem selioam ti sirmata, ta dakdakamatenna daytoy dagiti adu nga aldaw iti masakbayan.”

And the vision of evenings and mornings which has been talked of is true: and keep the vision secret; for it has to do with the far-off future.

27 Ket siak a ni Daniel, kimmapsut ken nagsakitak iti sumagmamano nga aldaw. Kalpasanna, bimmangonak ket intuloyko ti pakaseknan ti ari. Ngem maikulkulengak gapu iti sirmata, ket awan ti siasinoman a makaawat iti daytoy.

And I, Daniel, was ill for some days; then I got up and did the king's business: and I was full of wonder at the vision, but no one was able to give the sense of it.
