¹In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;

¹Saß li xbên chihab nak laj Darío aj Medo li ralal laj Asuero cuan chokß xreyeb laj Babilonia,

²In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.

²saß ajcuiß li chihab aßan nak cuan chokß rey laj Darío, lâin aj Daniel quin-oc chirilbal saß li Santil Hu ut quicuil nak lajêb xcâcßâl chihab tâcuânk chi jucßbil ru li tenamit Jerusalén joß quiyeheß re laj Jeremías xban li nimajcual Dios.

³And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:

³Ut chi anchal inchßôl quintijoc chiru li Kâcuaß ut quintzßâman chiru. Quinbânu lin ayûn ut quicuocsi li kßes ru tßicr ut quinqßue li cha chicuix.

⁴And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;

⁴Ut quintijoc chiru li Kâcuaß lin Dios ut quintzßâma xcuybal xmâqueb lin tenamit chiru. Quinye re: —At Kâcuaß, at nimajcual Dios, âcßulub nak tâxucuâk âcuu. Lâat nacabânu li cßaßru nacaye saß li contrato ut nacacuuxtâna ruheb li nequeßrahoc âcue ut nequeßbânun re li chakßrab li xaqßue.

⁵We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:

⁵Lâo xomâcob châcuu ut xkabânu li mâusilal. Incßaß us li kayehom kabânuhom ut xkakßetkßeti kib châcuu. Xkacanab xbânunquil li chakßrab li qßuebil ke âban lâat.

⁶Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.

⁶Incßaß xo-abin chiruheb li profeta li queßcßanjelac châcuu. Eb aßan queßâtinac saß âcßabaß chiruheb li karey ut chiruheb li queßtaklan saß kabên, ut queßâtinac ajcuiß riqßuineb li kanaß kayucuaß ut chiruheb chixjunileb lâ tenamit.

⁷O LORD, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.

⁷At Kâcuaß, lâat junelic nacabânu li tîquilal, abanan lâo xutânal noco-el riqßuin li mâusilal nakabânu. Chikajunilo lâo aj Israel xomâcob toj chalen anakcuan, li cuanqueb Judá joß ajcuiß li cuanqueb Jerusalén ut chixjunileb li tenamit Israel; li cuanqueb chi nachß joß ajcuiß li cuanqueb chi najt saß chixjunileb li naßajej bar xajeqßuiheb cuiß ruheb xban nak xeßxkßet li chakßrab li qßuebil reheb âban.

⁸O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.

⁸At Kâcuaß, kßaxal xutânal nakacßul lâo joßqueb ajcuiß li karey ut eb li nequeßtaklan saß kabên, joßqueb ajcuiß li kanaß kayucuaß xban nak xomâcob châcuu.

⁹To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;

⁹At Kâcuaß, at kaDios, lâat nacat-uxtânan ku ut lâat nacatcuyuc re li kamâc usta ac xkakßet lâ cuâtin.

¹⁰Neither have we obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.

¹⁰Incßaß xkapâb lâ cuâtin, at Kâcuaß at kaDios. Incßaß xkabânu li chakßrab li xaqßue ke li queßxchßolob xyâlal chiku eb li profeta laj cßanjeleb châcuu.

¹¹Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.

¹¹Chikajunilo lâo aj Israel, xkakßet li chakßrab li caqßue ke ut incßaß xkabânu li cßaßru caye. Joßcan nak xtßaneß saß kabên chixjunil li raylal li tzßîbanbil saß li chakßrab li caqßue re laj Moisés, laj cßanjel châcuu. Xomâcob châcuu, at Kâcuaß.

¹²And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem.

¹²Lâat xabânu joß caye chak chikix ut chirixeb li nequeßtaklan saß kabên. Xoâqßue chixtojbal li kamâc ut xaqßueheb ajcuiß chixtojbal lix mâqueb li nequeßtaklan saß kabên. Numtajenak li raylal xkacßul. Mâ jun sut quicßulman saß ruchichßochß joß xcßul li tenamit Jerusalén.

¹³As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.

¹³Chixjunil li raylal aßin xaqßue saß kabên joß tzßîbanbil saß li chakßrab li caqßue re laj Moisés. Ut lâo incßaß ajcuiß xkatzßâma kacuybal châcuu, at Kâcuaß, at kaDios, chi moco xkacanab xbânunquil li mâusilal chi moco xkaj xtaubal ru lix yâlal.

¹⁴Therefore hath the LORD watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the LORD our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.

¹⁴At Kâcuaß, lâat xabânu joß xaye. Xatakla chak li raylal saß kabên, xban nak lâo incßaß xkabânu li cßaßru xaye ke. Lâat, at Kâcuaß, chixjunil nacabânu saß tîquilal.

¹⁵And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.

¹⁵At Kâcuaß, at kaDios, nakanau nak lâat cat-isin reheb lâ tenamit aran Egipto riqßuin xnimal lâ cuanquil. Riqßuin aßan nanauman nak nim lâ cuanquil toj chalen anakcuan. Lâo xomâcob ut incßaß us li kayehom kabânuhom.

¹⁶O LORD, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us.

¹⁶At Kâcuaß, lâo nakanau nak lâat nacat-uxtânan u. Joßcan nak nakatzßâma châcuu nak incßaß ta chic tatjoskßok saß xbên lâ tenamit Jerusalén xban nak aßan lâ lokßlaj tenamit. Aßan lâ lokßlaj tzûl Sión. Xban li mâusilal nakabânu ut xban li mâc queßxbânu li kanaß kayucuaß, xutânal na-el ut seßenbil lâ tenamit Jerusalén xbaneb li jalan tenamit.

¹⁷Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.

¹⁷Anakcuan ut at Kâcuaß, at kaDios, chacuabi taxak lin tij lâin laj cßanjel châcuu ut chasume taxak li yôquin chixtzßâmanquil châcuu. Chaxakab ta cuißchic lâ templo li jucßbil anakcuan. Chaxakab ta cuißchic re taxak nak chixjunileb teßxnau nak lâat li Kâcuaß.

¹⁸O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies.

¹⁸Chacuabi taxak lin tij, at Kâcuaß Dios, ut chacuil taxak xtokßobâl ku, at inDios. Chacuil taxak li raylal li yôco chixcßulbal. Chacuil taxak lâ tenamit Jerusalén li sachbil ru. Nakayâba lâ cßabaß saß xbên li tenamit aßan. Moco xban ta nak tîc li kachßôl nak nocotijoc châcuu. Nocotijoc ban châcuu xban nak nim lâ cuuxtân.

¹⁹O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.

¹⁹Choâcuabi, at Kâcuaß. Chacuy taxak li kamâc, at kaDios. At Kâcuaß, chasume taxak li katij. Matbay taxak chixsumenquil li cßaßru xkatzßâma âcue saß xcßabaß lix nimal lâ rahom. Lâo nakayâba lâ cßabaß saß xbên li tenamit aßin ut saß xbêneb lâ cualal âcßajol, chanquin re li Kâcuaß.

²⁰And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God for the holy mountain of my God;

²⁰Toj yôquin ajcuiß chi tijoc chiru li Dios ut yôquin chixxôtonquil lin mâc chiru joß ajcuiß lix mâqueb lin tenamit Israel. Chi anchal inchßôl yôquin chixtzßâmanquil chiru li Kâcuaß nak tixxakab cuißchic lix santil templo.

²¹Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.

²¹Toj yôquin ajcuiß chi tijoc nak quicuil li ángel Gabriel li quixcßutbesi rib chicuu junxil saß li visión. Yô chak chi rupupic ut saß ânil quicuulac cuiqßuin saß x-ôril li mayejac li nabânuman ecuu.

²²And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding.

²²Quixchßolob lix yâlal chicuu ut quixye cue: —At Daniel, lâin xinchal âcuiqßuin re xqßuebal ânaßleb re nak tâtau ru lix yâlal.

²³At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision.

²³Chalen nak xatiquib tzßâmânc chiru li Dios, aßan xrabi lâ tij ut tixbânu li cßaßru xatzßâma. Joßcan nak xinixtakla chak âcuiqßuin chixyebal âcue lix yâlal. Lâat rarôcat xban li Dios. Chacuabi li tinye âcue re nak tâtau ru lix yâlal li quicßutbesîc châcuu xban li Kâcuaß.

²⁴Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

²⁴Lajêb xcâcßâl xamân teßxcßul li raylal li ac tenebanbil saß xbên lix santil tenamit li Dios, joß eb ajcuiß li ralal xcßajol re nak teßxtoj rix lix mâqueb ut teßxcanab xbânunquil li mâusilal ut re nak teßxcanab xbânunquil li mâc. Nak tâxakabâk xcuanquil li tîquilal, tâcßulmânk li cßaßru quicßutbesîc châcuu joß ajcuiß li queßxye li profeta ut li santil templo tâxakabâk cuißchic.

²⁵Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.

²⁵Abi li yôquin chixyebal âcue ut qßue retal lix yâlal. Chalen nak xqßueheß li chakßrab xban li Dios nak tâyîbâk cuißchic li tenamit Jerusalén, toj retal tâcßulûnk li Mesías, li tzßakal rey, tânumekß cuukub xamân ut cuib xcâcßâl xamân. Tâyîbâk cuißchic li tenamit Jerusalén joßqueb ajcuiß li tzßac usta kßaxal nabal li raylal yôk xcßulbal saß eb li cutan aßan.

²⁶And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

²⁶Ut nak acak xnumeß li cuib xcâcßâl xamân, tâcamsîk li Mesías chi mâcßaß xmâc. Ut jun chic li rey tâchâlk ut aßan tânumtâk saß xbên li tenamit Jerusalén ut tixjuqßui li templo ut tixsach li tenamit.

²⁷And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

²⁷Li rey aßan tixbânu jun li contrato riqßuin nabaleb li tenamit re jun xamân. Abanan chirix oxib cutan riqßuin jun cuaßleb, li rey incßaß chic tixbânu li quixye saß li contrato ut tixye reheb laj Israel nak incßaß chic naru teßmayejak chiru li Kâcuaß.
