| [1]In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539 a thingH1697 was revealedH1540[H8738] unto DanielH1840, whose nameH8034 was calledH7121[H8738] BelteshazzarH1095; and the thingH1697 was trueH571, but the time appointedH6635 was longH1419: and he understoodH995[H8804] the thingH1697, and had understandingH998 of the visionH4758. |
[1]In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision. |
| [2]In those daysH3117 I DanielH1840 was mourningH56[H8693] threeH7969 fullH3117 weeksH7620. |
[2]In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks. |
| [3]I ateH398[H8804] no pleasantH2532 breadH3899, neither cameH935[H8804] fleshH1320 nor wineH3196 in my mouthH6310, neither did I anointH5480[H8804] myself at allH5480[H8800], till threeH7969 wholeH3117 weeksH7620 were fulfilledH4390.[H8800] |
[3]I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled. |
| [4]And in the fourH702 and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the firstH7223 monthH2320, as I was by the sideH3027 of the greatH1419 riverH5104, which is HiddekelH2313; |
[4]And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel; |
| [5]Then I lifted upH5375[H8799] mine eyesH5869, and lookedH7200[H8799], and behold a certainH259 manH376 clothedH3847[H8803] in linenH906, whose loinsH4975 were girdedH2296[H8803] with fine goldH3800 of UphazH210: |
[5]Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz: |
| [6]His bodyH1472 also was like the berylH8658, and his faceH6440 as the appearanceH4758 of lightningH1300, and his eyesH5869 as lampsH3940 of fireH784, and his armsH2220 and his feetH4772 like in colourH5869 to polishedH7044 brassH5178, and the voiceH6963 of his wordsH1697 like the voiceH6963 of a multitudeH1995. |
[6]His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. |
| [7]And I DanielH1840 alone sawH7200[H8804] the visionH4759: for the menH582 that were with me sawH7200[H8804] not the visionH4759; butH61 a greatH1419 quakingH2731 fellH5307[H8804] upon them, so that they fledH1272[H8799] to hideH2244 themselvesH8736. |
[7]And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves. |
| [8]Therefore I was left aloneH7604[H8738], and sawH7200[H8799] this greatH1419 visionH4759, and there remainedH7604[H8738] no strengthH3581 in me: for my comelinessH1935 was turnedH2015[H8738] in me into corruptionH4889, and I retainedH6113[H8804] no strengthH3581. |
[8]Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength. |
| [9]Yet heardH8085[H8799] I the voiceH6963 of his wordsH1697: and when I heardH8085[H8800] the voiceH6963 of his wordsH1697, then was I in a deep sleepH7290[H8737] on my faceH6440, and my faceH6440 toward the groundH776. |
[9]Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground. |
| [10]And, behold, an handH3027 touchedH5060[H8804] me, which setH5128[H8686] me upon my kneesH1290 and upon the palmsH3709 of my handsH3027. |
[10]And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands. |
| [11]And he saidH559[H8799] unto me, O DanielH1840, a manH376 greatly belovedH2532, understandH995[H8685] the wordsH1697 that I speakH1696[H8802] unto thee, and standH5975[H8798] uprightH5977: for unto thee am I now sentH7971[H8795]. And when he had spokenH1696[H8763] this wordH1697 unto me, I stoodH5975[H8804] tremblingH7460.[H8688] |
[11]And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling. |
| [12]Then saidH559[H8799] he unto me, FearH3372[H8799] not, DanielH1840: for from the firstH7223 dayH3117 that thou didst setH5414[H8804] thine heartH3820 to understandH995[H8687], and to chastenH6031[H8692] thyself beforeH6440 thy GodH430, thy wordsH1697 were heardH8085[H8738], and I am comeH935[H8804] for thy wordsH1697. |
[12]Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words. |
| [13]But the princeH8269 of the kingdomH4438 of PersiaH6539 withstoodH5975[H8802] me oneH259 and twentyH6242 daysH3117: but, lo, MichaelH4317, oneH259 of the chiefH7223 princesH8269, cameH935[H8804] to helpH5826[H8800] me; and I remainedH3498[H8738] there withH681 the kingsH4428 of PersiaH6539. |
[13]But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. |
| [14]Now I am comeH935[H8804] to make thee understandH995[H8687] what shall befallH7136[H8799] thy peopleH5971 in the latterH319 daysH3117: for yet the visionH2377 is for many daysH3117. |
[14]Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days. |
| [15]And when he had spokenH1696[H8763] such wordsH1697 unto me, I setH5414[H8804] my faceH6440 toward the groundH776, and I became dumbH481.[H8738] |
[15]And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb. |
| [16]And, behold, one like the similitudeH1823 of the sonsH1121 of menH120 touchedH5060[H8802] my lipsH8193: then I openedH6605[H8799] my mouthH6310, and spakeH1696[H8762], and saidH559[H8799] unto him that stoodH5975[H8802] before me, O my lordH113, by the visionH4759 my sorrowsH6735 are turnedH2015[H8738] upon me, and I have retainedH6113[H8804] no strengthH3581. |
[16]And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength. |
| [17]For howH1963 canH3201[H8799] the servantH5650 of this my lordH113 talkH1696[H8763] with this my lordH113? for as for me, straightwayH6258 there remainedH5975[H8799] no strengthH3581 in me, neither is there breathH5397 leftH7604 in meH8738. |
[17]For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me. |
| [18]Then there came againH3254[H8686] and touchedH5060[H8799] me one like the appearanceH4758 of a manH120, and he strengthenedH2388 meH8762, |
[18]Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me, |
| [19]And saidH559[H8799], O manH376 greatly belovedH2532, fearH3372[H8799] not: peaceH7965 be unto thee, be strongH2388[H8798], yea, be strongH2388[H8798]. And when he had spokenH1696[H8763] unto me, I was strengthenedH2388[H8694], and saidH559[H8799], Let my lordH113 speakH1696[H8762]; for thou hast strengthenedH2388 meH8765. |
[19]And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me. |
| [20]Then saidH559[H8799] he, KnowestH3045[H8804] thou wherefore I comeH935[H8804] unto thee? and now will I returnH7725[H8799] to fightH3898[H8736] with the princeH8269 of PersiaH6539: and when I am gone forthH3318[H8802], lo, the princeH8269 of GreciaH3120 shall comeH935.[H8804] |
[20]Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come. |
| [21]ButH61 I will shewH5046[H8686] thee that which is notedH7559[H8803] in the scriptureH3791 of truthH571: and there is noneH259 that holdethH2388[H8693] with me in these things, but MichaelH4317 your princeH8269. |
[21]But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince. |
