¹Kuningas Belsassari valitsemise kolmandal aastal ilmutati mulle, Taanielile, nägemus lisaks sellele, mis mulle varem oli ilmutatud.

¹In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision appeared unto me, [even] to me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.

²Kui ma nägemuses nägin, siis ma olin, kui ma vaatasin, Suusani palees Eelami maakonnas; ja ma nägin selles nägemuses, et ma olin Uulai jõe ääres.

²And I saw in the vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was in the fortress of Shushan, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai.

³Ja ma tõstsin oma silmad üles ja vaatasin, ja ennäe, üks jäär seisis teisel pool jõge ja tal oli kaks sarve; ja sarved olid pikad, aga üks oli teisest pikem, ja pikem tõusis viimasena.

³And I lifted up mine eyes and saw, and behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns; and the two horns were high; and one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.

⁴Ma nägin jäära kaevlevat lääne ja põhja ja lõuna poole, ja ükski loom ei suutnud temale vastu seista ega olnud tema käest päästjat; ta tegi, nagu temale meeldis, ja ta suurustas.

⁴I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no beast could stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; and he did according to his will, and became great.

⁵Siis ma panin tähele, ja vaata, üks sikk tuli lääne poolt üle kogu maa, ilma et ta oleks puudutanud maad; ja sikul oli silmade vahel võimas sarv.

⁵And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat came from the west over the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.

⁶Ja ta tuli kahe sarvega jäära juurde, keda ma olin näinud seisvat teisel pool jõge, ja jooksis oma vägevas vihas sellele kallale.

⁶And he came to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran upon him in the fury of his power.

⁷Ja ma nägin teda jõudvat jäära juurde; siis ta märatses selle vastu ja puskis jäära ning murdis selle mõlemad sarved; ja jääral ei olnud jõudu temale vastu seista, vaid too paiskas ta maha ja tallas teda; ja ei olnud kedagi, kes oleks päästnud jäära tema käest.

⁷And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged with him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; and he cast him down to the ground, and trampled upon him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.

⁸Ja sikk suurustas väga, aga kui ta oli vägevuse tipul, murdus võimas sarv ja selle asemele kasvas neli suurt sarve taeva nelja tuule poole.

⁸And the he-goat became exceeding great; but when he was become strong, the great horn was broken; and in its stead came up four notable ones toward the four winds of the heavens.

⁹Ja ühest neist sarvedest tuli veel üks pisike sarv ja see kasvas väga suureks lõuna ja ida ja ilusa maa suunas.

⁹And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which became exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beauty [of the earth].

¹⁰Ta kasvas suureks kuni taeva väeni ja paiskas maha mõned sellest väest ja tähtedest ning tallas neid.

¹⁰And it became great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down [some] of the host and of the stars to the ground, and trampled upon them.

¹¹Ja ta tõstis ennast kuni selle väe vürstini; sellelt võeti ära alaline ohver ja ta pühamu paik tõugati ümber.

¹¹(And he magnified [himself] even to the prince of the host, and from him the continual [sacrifice] was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

¹²Ja alalise ohvri asemele pandi üleastumise vägi; ta paiskas tõe maha, ja mida ta tegi, läks tal korda.

¹²And a time of trial was appointed unto the continual [sacrifice] by reason of transgression.) And it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised and prospered.

¹³Siis ma kuulsin ühte püha kõnelevat, ja teine püha küsis kõnelejalt: 'Kui kaua kestab see nägemus alalisest ohvrist ja hukutavast üleastumisest, pühamu ja väe tallataandmisest?'

¹³And I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that one who spoke, How long shall be the vision of the continual [sacrifice] and of the transgression that maketh desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden down under foot?

¹⁴Ja ta ütles mulle: 'Kaks tuhat kolmsada õhtut-hommikut. Siis saab pühamu taas oma õiguse.'

¹⁴And he said unto me, Until two thousand and three hundred evenings [and] mornings: then shall the sanctuary be vindicated.

¹⁵Ja kui mina, Taaniel, olin näinud seda nägemust ja püüdsin seda mõista, vaata, siis seisis mu ees keegi, kellel oli mehe välimus.

¹⁵And it came to pass, when I Daniel had seen the vision, I sought for the understanding of it, and behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.

¹⁶Ja ma kuulsin inimese häält Uulai kallaste vahelt, ja see hüüdis ning ütles: 'Gabriel, seleta see nägemus tollele seal!'

¹⁶And I heard a man's voice between [the banks of] the Ulai; and he called and said, Gabriel, make this [man] to understand the vision.

¹⁷Siis ta tuli sinna, kus ma seisin, ja kui ta tuli, siis ma kohkusin ja langesin silmili maha. Ja ta ütles mulle: 'Inimesepoeg, pane tähele, et see nägemus tähendab viimset aega!'

¹⁷And he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was afraid, and fell on my face; and he said unto me, Understand, son of man; for the vision is for the time of the end.

¹⁸Ja kui ta minuga rääkis, olin ma sügavas unes, silmili maas; aga ta puudutas mind ja pani mu seisma sinna, kus ma olin seisnud,

¹⁸Now, as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep stupor, with my face toward the ground. And he touched me, and set me up where I had stood.

¹⁹ja ütles: 'Vaata, ma annan sulle teada, mis sünnib sajatuse viimsel ajal: seatud ajal tuleb lõpp!

¹⁹And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be at the end of the indignation: for at the set time the end shall be.

²⁰Jäär, keda sa nägid, kellel oli kaks sarve, on Meedia ja Pärsia kuningad.

²⁰The ram that thou sawest having the two horns: they are the kings of Media and Persia.

²¹Karune sikk on Kreeka kuningas; suur sarv tema silmade vahel on esimene kuningas.

²¹And the rough goat is the king of Greece; and the great horn that was between his eyes is the first king.

²²Ja et see murdus ning neli tõusid selle asemele, on neli kuningriiki, mis tõusevad tema rahvast, aga mitte nii vägevad kui tema.

²²Now that being broken, whereas four stood up in its stead, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.

²³Ja nende valitsuste lõpus, kui üleastujate mõõt on täis saanud, tõuseb üks kuningas, jultunud näoga ja salasepitsustes osav.

²³And at the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors shall have come to the full, a king of bold countenance, and understanding riddles, shall stand up.

²⁴Ja tema jõud on vägev, aga mitte tema enese jõust, ja ta valmistab tohutu õnnetuse; tal on kordaminek teos ja ta hävitab vägevaid ja püha rahva.

²⁴And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy marvellously, and shall prosper, and shall practise, and shall destroy the mighty ones, and the people of the saints.

²⁵Tema kavaluse tõttu õnnestub pettus ta käes; ta suurustab oma südames ja hävitab paljusid ootamatult. Ta tõuseb ka vürstide vürsti vastu, ent ta ise murtakse ilma inimkäeta.

²⁵And through his cunning shall he cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he will magnify [himself] in his heart, and by prosperity will corrupt many; and he will stand up against the Prince of princes: but he shall be broken without hand.

²⁶Ja nägemus õhtuist ja hommikuist, millest oli kõne, on tõsi; aga sina hoia see nägemus saladuses, sest see on kaugeiks päeviks!'

²⁶And the vision of the evening and the morning which hath been told is true; but close thou up the vision, for it is for many days [to come].

²⁷Ja mina, Taaniel, olin seejärel mõnda aega haige; siis ma tõusin üles ja toimetasin kuninga teenistust, aga ma olin kohkunud nägemuse pärast ega mõistnud seda.

²⁷And I Daniel fainted, and was sick [certain] days: then I rose up, and did the king's business. And I was astonished at the vision, but none understood [it].
