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;

¹V prvem letu Darija, sinu Ahasverjevega, iz zaroda Medcev, ki je zakraljeval državi Kaldejcev,

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.

²v prvem letu kraljevanja njegovega sem jaz Daniel obrnil pozornost v pismih na število let, o katerih se je zgodila beseda GOSPODOVA Jeremiju proroku, da se ima dopolniti razvalinam Jeruzalema sedemdeset let.

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

³In obrnil sem obličje h Gospodu Bogu, da bi ga iskal z molitvijo in s prošnjami, ob postu, raševniku in pepelu.

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;

⁴In molil sem h GOSPODU, svojemu Bogu, in sem pripoznaval grehe ter dejal: Ah, Gospod! veliki in strašni Bog mogočni, ki hrani zavezo in milost tistim, ki ga ljubijo in izpolnjujejo zapovedi njegove!

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

⁵Grešili smo in popačeno ravnali in brezbožno delali, in uprli smo se, ker smo odstopili od zapovedi in pravic tvojih.

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.

⁶In nismo poslušali služabnikov tvojih, prorokov, ki so v tvojem imenu govorili kraljem našim, knezom in očetom našim in vsemu ljudstvu dežele.

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.

⁷Tebi, o Gospod, gre pravičnost, nam pa osramotitev obraza, kakor je danes: možem Judovim in prebivalcem jeruzalemskim in vsem Izraelcem, ki so blizu in ki so daleč po vseh deželah, kamor si jih razkropil zavoljo nezvestobe, ki so jo zakrivili zoper tebe.

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

⁸O Gospod, nam gre osramotitev obraza, našim kraljem, našim knezom in očetom, ker smo grešili zoper tebe.

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

⁹Pri Gospodu, našem Bogu, je obilo usmiljenje in odpuščenje; kajti uprli smo se mu

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.

¹⁰in nismo poslušali glasu GOSPODA, Boga svojega, da bi hodili po postavah njegovih, ki nam jih je del pred oči po hlapcih svojih, prorokih.

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.

¹¹Ampak ves Izrael je prestopil postavo tvojo in se odvrnil, da ni poslušal tvojega glasu. Zato se je razlilo na nas prokletstvo in prisega, ki je zapisana v zakonu Mojzesa, hlapca Božjega, ker smo grešili zoper njega.

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.

¹²In izpolnil je besede svoje, ki jih je govoril zoper nas in zoper naše sodnike, ki so nas sodili, s tem, da je spravil nad nas veliko nesrečo, da se ni zgodilo pod vsem nebom kaj takega, kakor se je zgodilo v Jeruzalemu.

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.

¹³Prav tako, kakor je pisano v zakonu Mojzesovem, je prišla vsa ta nesreča nad nas; vendar nismo ponižno prosili obličja GOSPODA, Boga svojega, da bi se bili odvrnili od krivic svojih in prejeli razumnost v resnici tvoji.

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.

¹⁴Zato je GOSPOD čuval nad nesrečo in jo pripeljal nad nas. Kajti pravičen je GOSPOD, Bog naš, v vseh delih svojih, ki jih dela, mi pa nismo poslušali glasu njegovega.

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.

¹⁵In sedaj, o Gospod, Bog naš, ki si peljal ljudstvo svoje iz dežele Egiptovske z mogočno roko in si storil sebi ime, kakor je današnji dan: grešili smo, brezbožno smo ravnali.

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.

¹⁶O Gospod, po vsej svoji pravičnosti odvrni, prosim, jezo svojo in srd svoj od mesta Jeruzalema, gore svetosti svoje! zakaj zaradi grehov naših in krivic naših očetov je prišel Jeruzalem in ljudstvo tvoje v zasrambo vsem, ki so okoli nas.

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.

¹⁷In sedaj poslušaj, o Bog naš, molitev hlapca svojega in ponižne prošnje njegove in razjasni obličje svoje nad svojim svetiščem, ki je opustošeno, zavoljo Gospoda!

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.

¹⁸Nagni uho, o Bog moj, in čuj, odpri oko in poglej pustote naše in mesto, ki se zove po imenu tvojem. Kajti ne na podlagi pravičnosti svoje padamo na tla in milo prosimo pred tvojim obličjem, ampak na podlagi preobilega usmiljenja tvojega.

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.

¹⁹O Gospod, čuj, Gospod, odpusti, Gospod, poslušaj in delaj! ne odlašaj, zaradi sebe, o Bog moj! ker mesto in ljudstvo tvoje se zoveta po tvojem imenu.

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;

²⁰Ko sem še govoril in molil in pripoznaval greh svoj in greh ljudstva svojega Izraela in ponižno prosil pred obličjem GOSPODA, svojega Boga, za sveto goro svojega Boga;

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.

²¹ko sem še govoril v molitvi, prileti hitro mož Gabriel, ki sem ga bil videl v prikazni v začetku, in se me dotakne v času večerne daritve.

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

²²In poučil me je ter je z menoj govoril in dejal: Daniel, zdaj sem prišel, da ti razsvetlim razum.

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.

²³V začetku prošenj tvojih je izšla beseda, in prišel sem, da ti jo oznanim, ker si drag in ljubljen. Zato pazi na besedo in umej prikazen:

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.

²⁴Sedemdeset tednov je odločenih nad ljudstvom tvojim in nad svetim mestom tvojim, da preneha odpad in se naredi konec grehom ter da se stori poravnava za krivico in se privede večna pravičnost in se zapečati prikazen in proroštvo in da se pomazili Najsvetejše.

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.

²⁵Vedi torej in razumej: Odkar izide povelje, da naj se obnovi in pozida Jeruzalem, do Maziljenca, Vojvode, bode sedem tednov, in dvainšestdeset tednov. Mesto se obnovi in pozida z ulicami in z obzidjem, in to v časih stiske.

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.

²⁶In po tistih dvainšestdesetih tednih bo Maziljenec iztrebljen in nič mu ne ostane. In ljudstvo vojvode, kateri pride, razdene mesto in svetišče; in konec tega bode v povodnji, in prav do konca bode vojska, določene pustote.In trdno zavezo sklene z mnogimi za en teden in sredi tedna stori, da neha klalna in jedilna daritev. In na perutih gnusob pride pustošnik; in do pokončanja, trdno določenega, se izlije jeza nad pustošnika.

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.

²⁷In trdno zavezo sklene z mnogimi za en teden in sredi tedna stori, da neha klalna in jedilna daritev. In na perutih gnusob pride pustošnik; in do pokončanja, trdno določenega, se izlije jeza nad pustošnika.
