Taniela 9

1In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, by descent a Mede, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans—

1‌ʻI HE ʻuluaki taʻu ʻo Talaiasi ko e foha ʻo ʻAhasivelo ko e hako ʻoe kau Mitia, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ko e tuʻi ki he puleʻanga ʻoe kau Kalitia;

2in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, perceived in the books the number of years that, according to the word of the LORD to Jeremiah the prophet, must pass before the end of the desolations of Jerusalem, namely, seventy years.

2‌ʻI he ʻuluaki taʻu ʻo ʻene pule, ko au Taniela naʻaku ʻilo mei he ngaahi tohi, hono lau ʻoe ngaahi taʻu ʻaia naʻe hoko ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Selemaia, ko e palōfita, koeʻuhi ʻi he pehē, ʻE fakakakato ʻae taʻu ʻe fitungofulu mo e fakalala ʻo Selūsalema.

3Then I turned my face to the Lord God, seeking him by prayer and pleas for mercy with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.

3Pea ne u hanga hoku mata kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ke kumi ʻi he lotu mo e ngaahi kole mo e ʻaukai mo e ʻai ʻae tauangaʻa mo e efuefu.

4I prayed to the LORD my God and made confession, saying, “O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments,

4Pea ne u lotu kia Sihova, ko hoku ʻOtua, pea ne u fai ʻeku vete, pea ne u pehē, “ʻE Sihova, ko e ʻOtua lahi mo fakamanavahēʻia, ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae fuakava mo e ʻaloʻofa maʻanautolu ʻoku ʻofa kiate ia, pea kiate kinautolu ʻoku maʻu ʻene ngaahi fekau:

5we have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled, turning aside from your commandments and rules.

5“Kuo mau angahala, pea kuo mau fai angahala mo fai kovi, pea kuo mau talangataʻa, ʻio, ʻi heʻemau hē mei hoʻo ngaahi fekau pea mo hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau:

6We have not 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.

6Pea naʻe ʻikai te mau fanongo ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae kau palōfita, ʻakinautolu naʻe lea ʻi ho huafa ki homau ngaahi tuʻi, mo homau houʻeiki mo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua.

7To you, O Lord, belongs righteousness, but to us open shame, as at this day, to the men of Judah, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, those who are near and those who are far away, in all the lands to which you have driven them, because of the treachery that they have committed against you.

7‌ʻE ʻEiki ʻoku ʻaʻau ʻae māʻoniʻoni ka ʻoku ʻamautolu ʻae mā ʻoe mata, ʻo hangē ko e ʻaho ni; ki he kau tangata ʻo Siuta, pea ki he kakai ʻo Selūsalema, pea ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻoku ofi mo mamaʻo atu ʻi he ngaahi fonua kotoa pē ʻaia kuo ke kapusi ʻakinautolu ki ai, koeʻuhi ko e angahala kuo nau fai angahala ai kiate koe.

8To us, O LORD, belongs open shame, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against you.

8‌ʻE ʻEiki ʻoku ʻamautolu ʻae mā ʻoe mata, ʻa homau ngaahi tuʻi, mo homau houʻeiki, pea mo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, koeʻuhi kuo mau fai angahala kiate koe.

9To the Lord our God belong mercy and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him

9‌ʻOku ʻia Sihova ko homau ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi ʻaloʻofa mo e fakamolemole, ka naʻa mau angatuʻu kiate ia;

10and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God by walking in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.

10Pea naʻe ʻikai te mau talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, ke ʻalu ʻi hono ngaahi fono ʻaia naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻi homau ʻao, ʻi heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita.

11All Israel has transgressed your law and turned aside, refusing to obey your voice. And the curse and oath that are written in the Law of Moses the servant of God have been poured out upon us, because we have sinned against him.

11‌ʻIo, kuo maumau ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa pē hoʻo fono, ʻi heʻenau tafoki, ke ʻoua naʻa nau talangofua ki ho leʻo; ko ia, kuo lilingi ai ʻae malaʻia kiate kimautolu, pea mo e fuakava ʻaia ʻoku tohi ʻi he fono ʻa Mōsese, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻae ʻOtua, koeʻuhi kuo mau fai angahala kiate ia.

12He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us and against our rulers who ruled us, by bringing upon us a great calamity. For under the whole heaven there has not been done anything like what has been done against Jerusalem.

12Pea kuo ne fakamoʻoni ki heʻene ngaahi folofola, ʻaia naʻa ne folofola kiate kimautolu, pea mo homau kau fakamaau, ʻaia naʻe fakamaauʻi ʻakimautolu, ʻi heʻene ʻomi kiate kimautolu ʻae kovi lahi: he naʻe ʻikai ha fai ʻi he lalo langi kotoa pē ʻo hangē ko ia kuo fai ki Selūsalema.

13As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this calamity has come upon us; yet we have not entreated the favor of the LORD our God, turning from our iniquities and gaining insight by your truth.

13‌ʻO hangē ko ia naʻe tohi ʻi he fono ʻa Mōsese, kuo hoko ʻae kovi ni kotoa pē kiate kimautolu: ka naʻe ʻikai ke fai ʻemau lotu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke mau tafoki mei heʻemau ngaahi hia, pea ʻilo hoʻo moʻoni.

14Therefore the LORD has kept ready the calamity and has brought it upon us, for the LORD our God is righteous in all the works that he has done, and we have not obeyed his voice.

14Ko ia kuo leʻohi ʻa Sihova ki he kovi, pea kuo ne fakahoko ia kiate kimautolu: he ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ʻa Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, ʻi heʻene ngāue kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ne fai: he naʻe ʻikai te mau talangofua ki hono leʻo.

15And now, O Lord our God, who brought your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and have made a name for yourself, as at this day, we have sinned, we have done wickedly.

15“Pea ko eni, ʻE ʻEiki ko homau ʻOtua, ʻa koe naʻa ke ʻomi ʻa hoʻo kakai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite ʻaki ʻae nima mālohi, pea kuo ke maʻu kiate koe ʻae ongoongo, ʻo hangē ʻi he ʻaho ni; kuo mau angahala, kuo mau fai kovi.

16“O Lord, according to all your righteous acts, let your anger and your wrath turn away from your city Jerusalem, your holy hill, because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a byword among all who are around us.

16“ʻE Sihova ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ʻo fakatatau mo hoʻo māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē, ke fakaʻafeʻi ho houhau mo ho tuputāmaki lahi mei hoʻo kolo ko Selūsalema, ko ho moʻunga tapu: he koeʻuhi ko ʻemau ngaahi hia, pea mo e hia ʻa ʻemau ngaahi tamai, kuo hoko ʻa Selūsalema, mo hoʻo kakai, ko e manukiʻanga kiate kinautolu kotoa pē, ʻoku nofo takatakai kiate kimautolu.

17Now therefore, O our God, listen to the prayer of your servant and to his pleas for mercy, and for your own sake, O Lord, make your face to shine upon your sanctuary, which is desolate.

17Pea ko eni, ʻe homau ʻOtua, fanongo ki he hū ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, mo ʻene ngaahi kole, pea tuku ke ulo mai ho fofonga ki ho fale tapu, ʻaia ʻoku lala, koeʻuhi ko koe pe, ʻe ʻEiki.

18O my God, incline your ear and hear. Open your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by your name. For we do not present our pleas before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercy.

18‌ʻE hoku ʻOtua, fakatokangaʻi ho fofonga, pea fanongo, ke ke fofonga ʻaa, pea ʻafioʻi homau tuʻutāmaki, pea mo e kolo ʻoku ui ʻaki ho huafa: he ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻatu ʻemau ngaahi kole ki ho ʻao, koeʻuhi ko ʻemau māʻoniʻoni, ka koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ngaahi ʻaloʻofa lahi.

19O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive. O Lord, pay attention and act. Delay not, for your own sake, O my God, because your city and your people are called by your name.”

19‌ʻE ʻEiki, fanongo, ʻE ʻEiki, fakamolemole; ʻE ʻEiki, tokanga, mo fai; ʻoua naʻa fakatuai, koeʻuhi pe ko koe, ʻe hoku ʻOtua; he ko hoʻo kolo, mo hoʻo kakai ʻoku ui ʻaki ho huafa.”

20While I was speaking and praying, confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my plea before the LORD my God for the holy hill of my God,

20Pea lolotonga ʻeku kei lea, mo lotu, mo fakahā ʻeku hia, mo e hia ʻa hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli, mo ʻeku kei ʻatu ʻeku kole ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ko e moʻunga tapu ʻo hoku ʻOtua;

21while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the first, came to me in swift flight at the time of the evening sacrifice.

21‌ʻIo, ʻi he lolotonga ʻeku kei lea ʻi he lotu, naʻe fekau ke puna vave mai ʻae tangata, ʻio, ko Kepeleli, ʻaia naʻaku mamata ʻi he meʻa hā mai ʻi hono kamataʻanga, pea naʻe haʻu ia ʻo ala kiate au, ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ʻoe feilaulau efiafi.

22He made me understand, speaking with me and saying, “O Daniel, I have now come out to give you insight and understanding.

22Pea ne fakahā mai, pea naʻa ma talanoa mo au, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Taniela, kuo u toki haʻu koeʻuhi ke tuku kiate koe ʻae poto mo e ʻilo.

23At the beginning of your pleas for mercy a word went out, and I have come to tell it to you, for you are greatly loved. Therefore consider the word and understand the vision.

23‌ʻI he kamata fai ʻa hoʻo ngaahi kole naʻe hoko mai ʻae fekau, pea kuo u haʻu ke fakahā kiate koe; he ko e ʻofeina lahi koe: ko ia ke ke ʻilo ʻae meʻa pea ke fakakaukau ki he meʻa hā mai.

24“Seventy weeks are decreed about your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to put an end to sin, and to atone for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal both vision and prophet, and to anoint a most holy place.

24“Kuo kotofa pau ʻae uike ʻe fitungofulu ki hoʻo kakai, mo hoʻo kolo tapu, ke fakaʻosi ʻae angahala, mo fakangata ʻae ngaahi hia, pea ke fai ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko e angahia, pea ke fakahoko mai ʻae māʻoniʻoni taʻengata, pea ke fakamaau ke maʻu ʻae meʻa hā mai mo e kikite, pea ke fakanofo ʻae Fungani Māʻoniʻoni.

25Know therefore and understand that from the going out of the word to restore and build Jerusalem to the coming of an anointed one, a prince, there shall be seven weeks. Then for sixty-two weeks it shall be built again with squares and moat, but in a troubled time.

25Ko ia ke ke poto pea ke ʻilo, mei he fakahā ʻoe fekau ke fakafoʻou mo langa ʻa Selūsalema, ʻo aʻu ki he Misaia ko e ʻEiki, ko e uike ʻe fitu ia, mo e uike ʻe onongofulu ma ua: ʻe toe langa ʻae hala mo e ʻa maka, ʻio, ʻi he kuonga ʻoe maveuveu.

26And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war. Desolations are decreed.

26Pea hili ʻae uike ʻe onongofulu ma ua ʻe motuhi ʻae Misaia, ka e ʻikai koeʻuhi ko ia: pea ko e kakai ʻoe ʻeiki ʻe haʻu, te nau fakaʻauha ʻae kolo mo e potu tapu; pea ko hono ngata ʻo ia ʻe hoko ʻo hangē ko e melemo, pea kuo pau pe ke fai ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi kovi, ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻoe taʻu.

27And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week he shall put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator.”

27Pea ʻe fakamoʻoni ʻe ia ʻae fuakava mo e tokolahi ʻi he uike ʻe taha: pea ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe uike ʻe fakangata ʻe ia hono fai ʻae feilaulau, mo e feilaulau tutu; pea ʻoka kāpui ia ʻe he meʻa fakalielia ʻoe fakaʻauha, ʻe fai ʻaia kuo tuʻutuʻuni ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga, pea ʻe lilingi atu ia ki he fakaʻauha.”
