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;
1In the first year of Darius the son of Assuerus of the seed of the Medes, who reigned over the kingdom of the Chaldeans:
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.
2The first year of his reign, I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, concerning which the word of the Lord came to Jeremias the prophet, that seventy years should be accomplished of the desolation of Jerusalem.
3¶ Pea 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.
3And I set my face to the Lord my God, to pray and make supplication with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.
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:
4And I prayed to the Lord my God, and I made my confession, and said: I beseech thee, O Lord God, great and terrible, who keepest the covenant, and mercy to them that love thee, and keep thy commandments.
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:
5We have sinned, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly, and have revolted: and we have gone aside from thy commandments, and thy judgments.
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.
6We have not hearkened to thy servants the prophets, that have spoken in thy name to our kings, to our princes, to our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
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.
7To thee, O Lord, justice: but to us confusion of face, as at this day to the men of Juda, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel to them that are near, and to them that are far off in all the countries whither thou hast driven them, for their iniquities by which they have sinned against thee.
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.
8O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our princes, and to our fathers that have sinned.
9ʻOku ʻia Sihova ko homau ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi ʻaloʻofa mo e fakamolemole, ka naʻa mau angatuʻu kiate ia;
9But to thee, the Lord our God, mercy and forgiveness, for we have departed from thee:
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.
10And we have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his law, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
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.
11And all Israel have transgressed thy law, and have turned away from hearing thy voice, and the malediction, and the curse, which is written in the book of Moses the servant of God, is fallen upon us, because we have sinned against him.
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.
12And he hath confirmed his words which he spoke against us, and against our princes that judged us, that he would bring in upon us a great evil, such as never was under all the heaven, according to that which hath been done in Jerusalem.
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.
13As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: and we entreated not thy face, O Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and think on thy truth.
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.
14And the Lord hath watched upon the evil, and hath brought it upon us: the Lord our God is just in all his works which he hath done: for we have not hearkened to his voice.
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.
15And now, O Lord our God, who hast brought forth thy people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thee a name as at this day: we have sinned, we have committed iniquity,
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.
16O Lord, against all thy justice: let thy wrath and thy indignation be turned away, I beseech thee, from thy city Jerusalem, and from thy holy mountain. For by reason of our sins, and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem, and thy people are a reproach to all that are round about us.
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.
17Now therefore, O our God, hear the supplication of thy servant, and his prayers: and shew thy face upon thy sanctuary which is desolate, for thy own sake.
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.
18Incline, O my God, thy ear, and hear: open thy eyes, and see our desolation, and the city upon which thy name is called: for it is not for our justifications that we present our prayers before thy face, but for the multitude of thy tender mercies.
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.”
19O Lord, hear: O Lord, be appeased: hearken and do: delay not for thy own sake, O my God: because thy name is invocated upon thy city, and upon thy people.
20¶ Pea 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;
20Now while I was yet speaking, and praying, and confessing my sins, and the sins of my people of Israel, and presenting my supplications in the sight of my God, for the holy mountain of my God:
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.
21As I was yet speaking in prayer, behold the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, flying swiftly touched me at the time of the evening sacrifice.
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.
22And he instructed me, and spoke to me, and said: O Daniel, I am now come forth to teach thee, and that thou mightest understand.
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.
23From the beginning of thy prayers the word came forth: and I am come to shew it to thee, because thou art a man of desires: therefore do thou mark the word, and understand the vision.
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.
24Seventy weeks are shortened upon thy people, and upon thy holy city, that transgression may be finished, and sin may have an end, and iniquity may be abolished; and everlasting justice may be brought; and vision and prophecy may be fulfilled; and the saint of saints may be anointed.
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.
25Know thou therefore, and take notice: that from the going forth of the word, to build up Jerusalem again, unto Christ the prince, there shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks: and the street shall be built again, and the walls in straitness of times.
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.
26And after sixty-two weeks Christ shall be slain: and the people that shall deny him shall not be his. And a people with their leader that shall come, shall destroy the city and the sanctuary: and the end thereof shall be waste, and after the end of the war the appointed desolation.
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.”
27And he shall confirm the covenant with many, in one week: and in the half of the week the victim and the sacrifice shall fall: and there shall be in the temple the abomination of desolation: and the desolation shall continue even to the consummation, and to the end.
