¹In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who 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 the books the number of the years about which the word of Yahweh “Yahweh” is God’s proper Name, sometimes rendered “LORD” (all caps) in other translations. came to Jeremiah the prophet, for the accomplishing of the desolations of Jerusalem, even seventy years.

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.

³I set my face to the Lord God, to seek by prayer and petitions, 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.

⁴I prayed to Yahweh my God, and made confession, and said, Oh, Lord, the great and dreadful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness with those who love him and 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 dealt perversely, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even turning aside from your precepts and from your ordinances;

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

⁶neither have we listened to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your 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.

⁷Lord, righteousness belongs to you, but to us confusion of face, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, through all the countries where you have driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against you.

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.

⁸Lord, to us belongs confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against you.

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 forgiveness; for 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 Yahweh 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.

¹¹Yes, all Israel have transgressed your law, turning aside, that they should not obey your voice: therefore the curse and the oath written in the law of Moses the servant of God has been poured out on us; for 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.

¹²He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our judges who judged us, by bringing on us a great evil; for under the whole sky, such has not been done as has been done to 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 has come on us: yet have we not entreated the favor of Yahweh our God, that we should turn from our iniquities, and have discernment in your 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 has Yahweh watched over the evil, and brought it on us; for Yahweh our God is righteous in all his works which he does, and we have not obeyed 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.

¹⁵Now, Lord our God, who has brought your people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and have gotten yourself 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.

¹⁶Lord, according to all your righteousness, let your anger and please let your wrath be turned away from your city Jerusalem, your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a reproach to all who are around 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, our God, listen to the prayer of your servant, and to his petitions, and cause your face to shine on your 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!

¹⁸My God, turn your ear, and hear; open your eyes, and see our desolations, and the city which is called by your name: for we do not present our petitions before you for our righteousness, but for your great mercies’ sake.

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.

¹⁹Lord, hear; Lord, forgive; Lord, listen and do; don’t defer, for your own sake, my God, because your city and your people are called by your 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.

²⁰While I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before Yahweh 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;

²¹yes, while I was speaking in prayer, 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 offering.

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.

²²He instructed me, and talked with me, and said, Daniel, I am now come forth to give you wisdom 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 your petitions the commandment went forth, and I have come to tell you; for you are greatly beloved: therefore consider the matter, and understand 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 decreed on your people and on your holy city, to finish disobedience, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up 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 discern, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem to the Anointed One, “Anointed One” can also be translated “Messiah” (same as “Christ”). the prince, shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks: it shall be built again, with street and moat, even in troubled 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.

²⁶After the sixty-two weeks the Anointed One “Anointed One” can also be translated “Messiah” (same as “Christ”). shall be cut off, and shall have nothing: and the people of the prince who shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and its end shall be with a flood, and even to the end shall be 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.

²⁷He shall make a firm covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease; and on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate; and even to the full end, and that determined, shall wrath be poured out on 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.
