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

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

²I saw in the vision; now it was so, that when I saw, I was in the citadel of Susa, 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.

³Then I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but 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 animals could stand before him, neither was there any who could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and magnified himself.

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.

⁵As I was considering, behold, a male goat came from the west over the surface of the whole earth, and didn’t touch 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.

⁶He came to the ram that had the two horns, which I saw standing before the river, and ran on 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.

⁷I saw him come close to the ram, and he was moved with anger against him, and struck the ram, and broke his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; but he cast him down to the ground, and trampled on him; and there was none who 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.

⁸The male goat magnified himself exceedingly: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and instead of it there came up four notable horns toward the four winds of the sky.

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

⁹Out of one of them came forth a little horn, which grew exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious land .

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

¹⁰It grew great, even to the army of the sky; and some of the army and of the stars it cast down to the ground, and trampled on them.

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

¹¹Yes, it magnified itself, even to the prince of the army; and it took away from him the continual burnt offering, 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.

¹²The army was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering through disobedience; and it cast down truth to the ground, and it did its pleasure 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?'

¹³Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who spoke, How long shall be the vision concerning the continual burnt offering, and the disobedience that makes desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the army to be trodden under foot?

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

¹⁴He said to me, To two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

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

¹⁵It happened, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, that I sought to understand 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!'

¹⁶I heard a man’s voice between the banks of the Ulai, which 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!'

¹⁷So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was frightened, and fell on my face: but he said to me, Understand, son of man; for the vision belongs to 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 fell into a deep sleep with my face toward the ground; but he touched me, and set me upright.

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

¹⁹He said, Behold, I will make you know what shall be in the latter time of the indignation; for it belongs to the appointed time of the end.

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

²⁰The ram which you saw, that had the two horns, they are the kings of Media and Persia.

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

²¹The rough male goat is the king of Greece: and the great horn that is 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.

²²As for that which was broken, in the place where four stood up, 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.

²³In the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have come to the full, a king of fierce face, and understanding dark sentences, 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.

²⁴His power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper and do his pleasure; and he shall destroy the mighty ones and the holy people.

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.

²⁵Through his policy he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and in their security shall he destroy many: he shall also 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!'

²⁶The vision of the evenings and mornings which has been told is true: but seal up the vision; for it belongs to 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.

²⁷I, Daniel, fainted, and was sick certain days; then I rose up, and did the king’s business: and I wondered at the vision, but none understood it.
