Daniel 11

ego autem ab anno primo Darii Medi stabam ut confortaretur et roboraretur

Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him.

et nunc veritatem adnuntiabo tibi ecce adhuc tres reges stabunt in Perside et quartus ditabitur opibus nimiis super omnes et cum invaluerit divitiis suis concitabit omnes adversum regnum Graeciae

And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia.

surget vero rex fortis et dominabitur potestate multa et faciet quod placuerit ei

And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.

et cum steterit conteretur regnum eius et dividetur in quattuor ventos caeli sed non in posteros eius neque secundum potentiam illius qua dominatus est lacerabitur enim regnum eius etiam in externos exceptis his

And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those.

et confortabitur rex austri et de principibus eius praevalebit super eum et dominabitur dicione multa enim dominatio eius

And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion.

et post finem annorum foederabuntur filiaque regis austri veniet ad regem aquilonis facere amicitiam et non obtinebit fortitudinem brachii nec stabit semen eius et tradetur ipsa et qui adduxerunt eam adulescentes eius et qui confortabant eam in temporibus

And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she shall not retain the power of the arm; neither shall he stand, nor his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in these times.

et stabit de germine radicum eius plantatio et veniet cum exercitu et ingredietur provinciam regis aquilonis et abutetur eis et obtinebit

But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail:

insuper et deos eorum et sculptilia vasa quoque pretiosa argenti et auri captiva ducet in Aegyptum ipse praevalebit adversum regem aquilonis

And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the north.

et intrabit in regnum rex austri et revertetur ad terram suam

So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land.

filii autem eius provocabuntur et congregabunt multitudinem exercituum plurimorum et veniet properans et inundans et revertetur et concitabitur et congredietur cum robore eius

But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and one shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through: then shall he return, and be stirred up, even to his fortress.

et provocatus rex austri egredietur et pugnabit adversum regem aquilonis et praeparabit multitudinem nimiam et dabitur multitudo in manu eius

And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand.

et capiet multitudinem et exaltabitur cor eius et deiciet multa milia sed non praevalebit

And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it.

convertetur enim rex aquilonis et praeparabit multitudinem multo maiorem quam prius et in fine temporum annorumque veniet properans cum exercitu magno et opibus nimiis

For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.

et in temporibus illis multi consurgent adversum regem austri filii quoque praevaricatorum populi tui extollentur ut impleant visionem et corruent

And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall.

et veniet rex aquilonis et conportabit aggerem et capiet urbes munitissimas et brachia austri non sustinebunt et consurgent electi eius ad resistendum et non erit fortitudo

So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the most fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.

et faciet veniens super eum iuxta placitum suum et non erit qui stet contra faciem eius et stabit in terra inclita et consumetur in manu eius

But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed.

et ponet faciem suam ut veniat ad tenendum universum regnum eius et recta faciet cum eo et filiam feminarum dabit ei ut evertat illud et non stabit nec illius erit

He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand on his side, neither be for him.

et convertet faciem suam ad insulas et capiet multas et cessare faciet principem obprobrii sui et obprobrium eius convertetur in eum

After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many: but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him.

et convertet faciem suam ad imperium terrae suae et inpinget et corruet et non invenietur

Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found.

et stabit in loco eius vilissimus et indignus decore regio et in paucis diebus conteretur non in furore nec in proelio

Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

et stabit in loco eius despectus et non tribuetur ei honor regius et veniet clam et obtinebit regnum in fraudulentia

And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

et brachia pugnantis expugnabuntur a facie eius et conterentur insuper et dux foederis

And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant.

et post amicitias cum eo faciet dolum et ascendet et superabit in modico populo

And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people.

abundantes et uberes urbes ingredietur et faciet quae non fecerunt patres eius et patres patrum eius rapinas et praedam et divitias eorum dissipabit et contra firmissimas cogitationes iniet et hoc usque ad tempus

He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time.

et concitabitur fortitudo eius et cor eius adversum regem austri in exercitu magno et rex austri provocabitur ad bellum multis auxiliis et fortibus nimis et non stabunt quia inibunt adversum eum consilia

And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand: for they shall forecast devices against him.

et comedentes panem cum eo conterent illum exercitusque eius opprimetur et cadent interfecti plurimi

Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow: and many shall fall down slain.

duorum quoque regum cor erit ut malefaciant et ad mensam unam mendacium loquentur et non proficient quia adhuc finis in aliud tempus

And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.

et revertetur in terram suam cum opibus multis et cor eius adversus testamentum sanctum et faciet et revertetur in terram suam

Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land.

statuto tempore revertetur et veniet ad austrum et non erit priori simile novissimum

At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter.

et venient super eum trieres et Romani et percutietur et revertetur et indignabitur contra testamentum sanctuarii et faciet reverteturque et cogitabit adversum eos qui dereliquerunt testamentum sanctuarii

For the ships of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant.

et brachia ex eo stabunt et polluent sanctuarium fortitudinis et auferent iuge sacrificium et dabunt abominationem in desolationem

And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.

et impii in testamentum simulabunt fraudulenter populus autem sciens Deum suum obtinebit et faciet

And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

et docti in populo docebunt plurimos et ruent in gladio et in flamma in captivitate et rapina dierum

And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.

cumque corruerint sublevabuntur auxilio parvulo et adplicabuntur eis plurimi fraudulenter

Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.

et de eruditis ruent ut conflentur et eligantur et dealbentur usque ad tempus praefinitum quia adhuc aliud tempus erit

And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.

et faciet iuxta voluntatem suam rex et elevabitur et magnificabitur adversum omnem deum et adversum Deum deorum loquetur magnifica et diriget donec conpleatur iracundia perpetrata est quippe definitio

And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.

et Deum patrum suorum non reputabit et erit in concupiscentiis feminarum nec quemquam deorum curabit quia adversum universa consurget

Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.

deum autem Maozim in loco suo venerabitur et deum quem ignoraverunt patres eius colet auro et argento et lapide pretioso rebusque pretiosis

But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.

et faciet ut muniat Maozim cum deo alieno quem cognovit et multiplicabit gloriam et dabit eis potestatem in multis et terram dividet gratuito

Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.

et in tempore praefinito proeliabitur adversum eum rex austri et quasi tempestas veniet contra illum rex aquilonis in curribus et in equitibus et in classe magna et ingredietur terras et conteret et pertransiet

And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.

et introibit in terram gloriosam et multae corruent hae autem solae salvabuntur de manu eius Edom et Moab et principium filiorum Ammon

He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.

et mittet manum suam in terras et terra Aegypti non effugiet

He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

et dominabitur thesaurorum auri et argenti et in omnibus pretiosis Aegypti per Lybias quoque et Aethiopias transibit

But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.

et fama turbabit eum ab oriente et ab aquilone et veniet in multitudine magna ut conterat et interficiat plurimos

But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.

et figet tabernaculum suum Apedno inter maria super montem inclitum et sanctum et veniet usque ad summitatem eius et nemo auxiliabitur ei

And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.
