Daniel 10

Tamin'ny taona fahatelo nanjakan'i Kyrosy, mpanjakan'i Persia, dia nisy nambara tamin'i Daniela, izay atao hoe Beltesazara; marina ny teny, ary ady mafy no nolazainy; ary nahalala ny teny izy sady nahafantatra ny fahitana.

In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.

Tamin'izany andro izany izaho Daniela dia nisaona roatokom-bolana mipaka.

In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.

Tsy nihinana hanim-py aho, sady tsy nanendry hena na divay ny vavako, ary tsy nihosotra diloilo akory aho ambara-pahatapitry ny roatokom-bolana mipaka.

I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.

Ary tamin'ny andro fahefatra amby roa-polo tamin'ny volana voalohany, raha teo amoron'ny ony lehibe aho (Hidekela izany),

And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel;

dia nanopy ny masoko aho ka nijery, ary, indro, nisy lehilahy iray nitafy rongony fotsy, ka tena volamena avy any Ofaza no nisikinany;

Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:

tahaka ny krysolita ny tenany. ary tahaka ny helatra ny tarehiny, ary tahaka ny fanilo mirehitra ny masony, ary mivolom-barahina manganohano ny sandriny sy ny tongony; ary ny feony toy ny feon'olona maro be;

His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.

ary izaho Daniela ihany no nahita ny fahitana; fa ny olona izay teo amiko kosa tsy mba nahita izany, fa toran-kovitra indrindra izy ka nandositra niery.

And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.

Ary dia nilaozana ho irery aho ary nahita izany fahitana lehibe izany, dia tsy nisy hery tafajanona tato amiko; fa nihasimba nivaloarika ny tarehiko, ary tsy nisy hery intsony tamiko.

Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.

Nefa nandre ny teniny ihany aho; ary nony nandre izany aho, dia renoky ny torimaso niankohoka tamin'ny tany.

Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.

Ary, indro, nisy tanana nanohina ka nanarina ahy handohalika sy hitehin-tanana, nefa mbola nangozohozo ihany.

And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.

Ary hoy izy tamiko: Ry Daniela malala ô, fantaro ny teny Izay lazaiko aminao, ka mijoroa; fa nirahina ho atỳ aminao aho ankehitriny. Ary nony nilaza izany teny izany tamiko izy, dia nitsangana nangozohozo teo aho.

And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.

Dia hoy izy tamiko: Aza matahotra, ry Daniela; fa hatramin'ilay andro voalohany nampiasanao ny fonao hahalala sy hampahory ny tenanao teo anatrehan'Andriamanitrao dia reko ny teninao, ary noho ny teninao dia avy aho.

Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.

Fa ilay andrianan'ny fanjakan'i Persia nanohitra ahy iraika amby roa-polo andro; fa indro kosa Mikaela, anankiray amin'ireo andriana lehibe, no tonga hanampy ahy; ka dia izaho ihany no sisa nijanona teo amin'ny mpanjakan'i Persia.

But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.

Ary avy hampahafantatra anao izay hanjo ny firenenao any am-parany aho, satria mbola hihatra amin'izany andro izany ny fahitana.

Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.

Ary nony nilaza izany teny izany tamiko izy, dia niankohoka tamin'ny tany aho sady tsy nahateny.

And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.

Ary, indro, nisy anankiray miendri-janak'olombelona nanendry ny molotro, dia niloa-bava aho ka niteny nanao tamin'ilay nitsangana teo anatrehako hoe: Tompoko, azon'ny fanaintainana aho noho ny fahitana ka tsy manan-kery intsony.

And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.

Fa aiza no ahazoan'ity izaho mpanompon'ny tompoko ity hiteny aminao tompoko? Ary tamin'izay dia tsy nisy hery nitoetra tato amiko intsony, na nisy aina sisa tato amiko.

For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.

Ary nisy indray nanana endrik'olona nanendry ahy koa, dia nampahery ahy

Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,

ka nanao hoe: Aza matahotra, ry ilay malala indrindra; fiadanana anie ho anao, mahereza, eny, mahereza. Ary rehefa niteny tamiko izy, dia nihahery aho ka nanao hoe: Aoka hiteny ianao tompoko, satria efa nampahery ahy.

And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.

Dia hoy izy: Moa fantatrao va ny nihaviako atỳ aminao? Ankehitriny dia hiverina hiady amin'ny andrianan'i Persia aho, ary rehefa mivoaka aho, dia, indro, ho avy ny andrianan'i Grisia.

Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.

Fa hambarako aminao izay voasoratra ao amin'ny soratra marina; nefa tsy misy miara-misikina amiko hanohitra ireo, afa-tsy Mikaela andriananareo.

But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
