Daniel 1



1. In the third <7969 shalowsh > year <8141 shaneh > of the
reign <4438 malkuwth > of Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > king
<4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > came <0935 bow> >
Nebuchadnezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of
Babylon <0894 Babel > unto Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and
besieged <6696 tsuwr > it.



2 And the Lord <0136 >Adonay > gave <5414 nathan > Jehoiakim
<3079 Y@howyaqiym > king <4428 melek > of Judah < 3063 Y@huwdah >
into his hand <3027 yad >, with part <7117 q@tsath > of the
vessels <3627 k@liy > of the house <1004 bayith > of God <0430
>elohiym >: which he carried <0935 bow> > into the land <0776
>erets > of Shinar <8152 Shin<ar > to the house <1004 bayith >
of his god <0430 >elohiym >; and he brought <0935 bow> > the
vessels <3627 k@liy > into the treasure <0214 >owtsar > house
<1004 bayith > of his god <0430 >elohiym >.



3 And the king <4428 melek > spake <0559 >amar > unto Ashpenaz
<0828 >Ashp@naz > the master <7227 rab > of his eunuchs <5631
cariyc >, that he should bring <0935 bow> > [certain] of the
children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, and of the
king's <4410 m@luwkah > seed <2233 zera< >, and of the princes
<6579 partam >;



4 Children <3206 yeled > in whom [was] no <0369 > ayin > blemish
<3971 m>uwm >, but well <2896 towb > favoured < 4758 mar>eh >,
and skilful <7919 sakal > in all <3605 kol > wisdom <2451
chokmah >, and cunning <3045 yada< > in knowledge < 1847 da<ath >,
and understanding <0995 biyn > science <4093 madda< >, and such
as [had] ability <3581 koach > in them to stand <5975 <amad > in
the king's <4428 melek > palace <1964 heykal >, and whom they
might teach <3925 lamad > the learning <5612 cepher > and the
tongue <3956 lashown > of the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > .



5 And the king <4428 melek > appointed <4487 manah > them a
daily <3117 yowm > provision <1697 dabar > of the king's <4428
melek > meat <6598 pathbag >, and of the wine <3196 yayin >
which he drank <4960 mishteh >: so nourishing <1431 gadal > them
three <7969 shalowsh > years <8141 shaneh >, that at the end
<7117 q@tsath > thereof they might stand <5975 <amad > before
<6440 paniym > the king <4428 melek >.



6 Now among these <1992 hem > were of the children < 1121 ben >
of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, Hananiah
<2608 Chananyah >, Mishael <4332 Miysha>el >, and Azariah <5838
<Azaryah >:



7 Unto whom <1992 hem > the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs
<5631 cariyc > gave <7760 suwm > names <8034 shem >: for he gave
<7760 suwm > unto Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > [the name <8034 shem
>] of Belteshazzar <1095 Belt@sha>tstsar >; and to Hananiah
<2608 Chananyah >, of Shadrach <7714 Shadrak >; and to Mishael
<4332 Miysha>el >, of Meshach <4335 Meyshak >; and to Azariah
<5838 <Azaryah >, of Abednego <5664 <Abed N@gow >.



8. But Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > purposed <7760 suwm > in his
heart <3820 leb > that he would not defile <1351 ga> al > himself
with the portion <6598 pathbag > of the king's <4428 melek >
meat <6598 pathbag >, nor with the wine <3196 yayin > which he
drank <4960 mishteh >: therefore he requested <1245 baqash > of
the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs <5631 cariyc > that he
might not defile <1351 ga>al > himself.



9 Now God <0430 >elohiym > had brought <5414 nathan > Daniel
<1840 Daniye>l > into favour <2617 checed > and tender love with
the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs <5631 cariyc >.



10 And the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs <5631 cariyc >
said <0559 >amar > unto Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, I fear <3373
yare> > my lord <0113 >adown > the king <4428 melek >, who <0834
>aher > hath appointed <4487 manah > your meat < 3978 ma>akal >
and your drink <4960 mishteh >: for why <4100 mah > should he
see <7200 ra>ah > your faces <6440 paniym > worse <2196 za<aph >
liking than <4480 min > the children <3206 yeled > which <0834
>aher > [are] of your sort <1524 giyl >? then shall ye make [me]
endanger <2325 chuwb > my head <7218 ro>sh > to the king <4428
melek >.



11 Then said <0559 >amar > Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > to Melzar
<4453 meltsar >, whom <0834 >aher > the prince < 8269 sar > of
the eunuchs <5631 cariyc > had set <4487 manah > over <5921 <al
> Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, Hananiah <2608 Chananyah >, Mishael
<4332 Miysha>el >, and Azariah <5838 <Azaryah >,



12 Prove <5254 nacah > thy servants <5650 <ebed >, I beseech
<4994 na> > thee, ten <6235 <eser > days < 3117 yowm >; and let
them give <5414 nathan > us pulse <2235 zeroa< > to eat <0398
>akal >, and water <4325 mayim > to drink <8354 shathah >.



13 Then let our countenances <4758 mar>eh > be looked <7200
ra>ah > upon before <6440 paniym > thee, and the countenance
<4758 mar>eh > of the children <3206 yeled > that eat <0398
>akal > of the portion <6598 pathbag > of the king's <4428 melek
> meat <6598 pathbag >: and as thou seest <7200 ra> ah >, deal
<6213 <asah > with thy servants <5650 <ebed >.



14 So he consented <8085 shama< > to them in this < 2088 zeh >
matter <1697 dabar >, and proved <5254 nacah > them ten <6235
<eser > days <3117 yowm >.



15 And at the end <7117 q@tsath > of ten <6235 <eser > days
<3117 yowm > their countenances <4758 mar>eh > appeared <7200
ra>ah > fairer <2896 towb > and fatter <1277 bariy> > in flesh
<1320 basar > than <4480 min > all <3605 kol > the children
<3206 yeled > which did eat <0398 >akal > the portion <6598
pathbag > of the king's <4428 melek > meat <6598 pathbag >.



16 Thus Melzar <4453 meltsar > took <5375 nasa> > away the
portion <6598 pathbag > of their meat <6598 pathbag >, and the
wine <3196 yayin > that they should drink <4960 mishteh >; and
gave <5414 nathan > them pulse <2235 zeroa< >.



17. As for these <0428 >el-leh > four <0702 > arba< > children
<3206 yeled >, God <0430 >elohiym > gave <5414 nathan > them
knowledge <4093 madda< > and skill <7919 sakal > in all <3605
kol > learning <5612 cepher > and wisdom <2451 chokmah >: and
Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > had understanding <0995 biyn > in all
<3605 kol > visions <2377 chazown > and dreams < 2472 chalowm >.



18 Now at the end <7117 q@tsath > of the days <3117 yowm > that
the king <4428 melek > had said <0559 >amar > he should bring
<0935 bow> > them in, then the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs
<5631 cariyc > brought <0935 bow> > them in before <6440 paniym
> Nebuchadnezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar >.



19 And the king <4428 melek > communed <1696 dabar > with them;
and among them all <3605 kol > was found <4672 matsa> > none
<3808 lo> > like Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, Hananiah <2608
Chananyah >, Mishael <4332 Miysha>el >, and Azariah <5838
<Azaryah >: therefore stood <5975 <amad > they before <6440
paniym > the king <4428 melek >.



20 And in all <3605 kol > matters <1697 dabar > of wisdom <2451
chokmah > [and] understanding <0998 biynah >, that the king
<4428 melek > enquired <1245 baqash > of them, he found <4672
matsa> > them ten <6235 <eser > times better < 3027 yad > than
<5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the magicians <2748 chartom > [and]
astrologers <0825 >ashshaph > that [were] in all < 3605 kol > his
realm <4438 malkuwth >.



21 And Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > continued <1961 hayah > [even]
unto the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > of king <4428
melek > Cyrus <3566 Kowresh >.



Daniel 2



1. And in the second <8147 sh@nayim > year <8141 shaneh > of
the reign <4438 malkuwth > of Nebuchadnezzar <5019
N@buwkadne>tstsar > Nebuchadnezzar <5019 N@buwkadne> tstsar >
dreamed <2492 chalam > dreams <2472 chalowm >, wherewith his
spirit <7307 ruwach > was troubled <6470 pa<am >, and his sleep
<8142 shehah > brake <1961 hayah > from him.



2 Then the king <4428 melek > commanded <0559 >amar > to call
<7121 qara> > the magicians <2748 chartom >, and the astrologers
<0825 >ashshaph >, and the sorcerers <3784 kashaph >, and the
Chaldeans <3779 Kasday >, for to shew <5046 nagad > the king
<4428 melek > his dreams <2472 chalowm >. So they came <0935
bow> > and stood <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > the king
<4428 melek >.



3 And the king <4428 melek > said <0559 >amar > unto them, I
have dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm >, and my
spirit <7307 ruwach > was troubled <6470 pa<am > to know <3045
yada< > the dream <2472 chalowm >.



4 Then spake <1696 dabar > the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > to the
king <4428 melek > in Syriack <0762 >Aramiyth >, O king <4430
melek >, live <2418 chaya> > for ever <5957 < alam >: tell <0560
>amar > thy servants <5649 <abad > the dream < 2493 chelem >, and
we will shew <2324 chava> > the interpretation <6591 p@shar >.



5 The king <4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560
>amar > to the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday >, The thing <4406 millah
> is gone <0230 >azad > from me: if <2006 hen > ye will not make
known <3046 y@da< > unto me the dream <2493 chelem >, with the
interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof, ye shall be cut < 5648
<abad > in pieces <1917 haddam >, and your houses < 1005 bayith >
shall be made <7761 suwm > a dunghill <5122 n@valuw >.



6 But if <2006 hen > ye shew <2324 chava> > the dream <2493
chelem >, and the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof, ye
shall receive <6902 q@bal > of me gifts <4978 matt@na> > and
rewards <5023 n@bizbah > and great <7690 saggiy> > honour <3367
y@qar >: therefore <2006 hen > shew <2324 chava> > me the dream
<2493 chelem >, and the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof.



7 They answered <6032 <anah > again <8579 tinyanuwth > and said
<0560 >amar >, Let the king <4430 melek > tell < 0560 >amar > his
servants <5649 <abad > the dream <2493 chelem >, and we will
shew <2324 chava> > the interpretation <6591 p@shar > of it.



8 The king <4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560
>amar >, I know <3046 y@da< > of certainty < 3330 yatstsiyb >
that ye would gain <2084 z@ban > the time <5732 < iddan >,
because ye see <2370 chaza> > the thing <4406 millah > is gone
<0230 >azad > from me.



9 But if <2006 hen > ye will not make known <3046 y@da< > unto
me the dream <2493 chelem >, [there is but] one <2298 chad >
decree <1882 dath > for you: for ye have prepared <2164 z@man >
lying <3538 k@dab > and corrupt <7844 sh@chath > words <4406
millah > to speak <0560 >amar > before <6925 qodam > me, till
<5704 <ad > the time <5732 <iddan > be changed <8133 sh@na> >:
therefore <2006 hen > tell <0560 >amar > me the dream <2493
chelem >, and I shall know <3046 y@da< > that ye can shew <2324
chava> > me the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof.



10 The Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > answered <6032 <anah > before
<6925 qodam > the king <4430 melek >, and said < 0560 >amar >,
There is not a man <0606 >enash > upon the earth < 3007
yabbesheth > that can <3202 y@kel > shew <2324 chava> > the
king's <4430 melek > matter <4406 millah >: therefore [there is]
no king <4430 melek >, lord <7229 rab >, nor ruler <7990
shalliyt >, [that] asked <7593 sh@>el > such <1836 den > things
at any <3606 kol > magician <2749 chartom >, or astrologer <0826
>ashshaph >, or Chaldean <3777 Kesed >.





11 And [it is] a rare <3358 yaqqiyr > thing <4406 millah > that
the king <4430 melek > requireth <7593 sh@>el >, and there is
none <3809 la> > other <0321 >ochoran > that can shew <2324
chava> > it before <6925 qodam > the king <4430 melek >, except
<3861 lawhen > the gods <0426 >elahh >, whose < 1768 diy >
dwelling <4070 m@dowr > is not with flesh <1321 b@sar >.



12 For this <1836 den > cause the king <4430 melek > was angry
<1149 b@nac > and very <7690 saggiy> > furious < 7108 q@tsaph >,
and commanded <0560 >amar > to destroy <7> all < 3606 kol > the
wise <2445 chakkiym > [men] of Babylon <0895 Babel >.



13 And the decree <1882 dath > went <5312 n@phaq > forth <5312
n@phaq > that the wise <2445 chakkiym > [men] should be slain
<6992 q@tal >; and they sought <1158 ba<ah > Daniel <1841
Daniye>l > and his fellows <2269 chabar > to be slain <6992
q@tal >.



14. Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > answered <8421
tuwb > with counsel <5843 <eta> > and wisdom < 2942 t@<em > to
Arioch <0746 >Aryowk > the captain <7229 rab > of the king's
<4430 melek > guard <2877 tabbach >, which <1768 diy > was gone
<5312 n@phaq > forth <5312 n@phaq > to slay <6992 q@tal > the
wise <2445 chakkiym > [men] of Babylon <0895 Babel >:



15 He answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > to Arioch
<0746 >Aryowk > the king's <4430 melek > captain <7990 shalliyt
>, Why [is] the decree <1882 dath > [so] hasty <2685 chatsaph >
from the king <4430 melek >? Then <0116 >edayin > Arioch <0746
>Aryowk > made the thing <4406 millah > known < 3046 y@da< > to
Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >.



16 Then Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > went <5954 <alal > in, and
desired <1156 b@<a> > of the king <4430 melek > that he would
give <5415 n@than > him time <2166 z@man >, and that he would
shew <2324 chava> > the king <4430 melek > the interpretation
<6591 p@shar >.



17 Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > went <0236
>azal > to his house <1005 bayith >, and made the thing <4406
millah > known <3046 y@da< > to Hananiah <2608 Chananyah >,
Mishael <4332 Miysha>el >, and Azariah <5839 < Azaryah >, his
companions <2269 chabar >:



18 That they would desire <1156 b@<a> > mercies < 7359 r@chem >
of the God <0426 >elahh > of heaven <8065 shamayin > concerning
<5922 <al > this <1836 den > secret <7328 raz >; that Daniel
<1841 Daniye>l > and his fellows <2269 chabar > should not
perish <7> with the rest <7606 sh@>ar > of the wise <2445
chakkiym > [men] of Babylon <0895 Babel >.



19 Then <0116 >edayin > was the secret <7328 raz > revealed
<1541 g@lah > unto Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > in a night <3916
leyl@ya> > vision <2376 chezev >. Then <0116 > edayin > Daniel
<1841 Daniye>l > blessed <1289 b@rak > the God < 0426 >elahh > of
heaven <8065 shamayin >.



20 Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > answered <6032 <anah > and said
<0560 >amar >, Blessed <1289 b@rak > be the name <8036 shum > of
God <0426 >elahh > for ever <5957 <alam > and ever <5957 <alam >:
for wisdom <2452 chokmah > and might <1370 g@buwrah > are his:



21 And he changeth <8133 sh@na> > the times <5732 <iddan > and
the seasons <2166 z@man >: he removeth <5709 <ada> > kings <4430
melek >, and setteth <6966 quwm > up kings <4430 melek >: he
giveth <3052 y@hab > wisdom <2452 chokmah > unto the wise <2445
chakkiym >, and knowledge <0998 biynah > to them that know <3046
y@da< > understanding <0999 biynah >:



22 He revealeth <1541 g@lah > the deep <5994 <amiyq > and
secret <5642 c@thar > things: he knoweth <3046 y@da< > what
<4101 mah > [is] in the darkness <2816 chashowk >, and the light
<5094 n@hiyr > dwelleth <8271 sh@re> > with him.



23 I thank <3029 y@da> > thee, and praise <7624 sh@bach > thee,
O thou God <0426 >elahh > of my fathers <2>, who <1768 diy >
hast given <3052 y@hab > me wisdom <2452 chokmah > and might
<1370 g@buwrah >, and hast made known <3046 y@da< > unto me now
<3705 k@<an > what <1768 diy > we desired <1156 b@<a> > of thee:
for thou hast [now <3705 k@<an >] made known <3046 y@da< > unto
us the king's <4430 melek > matter <4406 millah >.



24. Therefore Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > went <5954 < alal > in
unto Arioch <0746 >Aryowk >, whom <1768 diy > the king <4430
melek > had ordained <4483 m@na> > to destroy < 7> the wise <2445
chakkiym > [men] of Babylon <0895 Babel >: he went < 0236 >azal >
and said <0560 >amar > thus <3652 ken > unto him; Destroy <7>
not the wise <2445 chakkiym > [men] of Babylon <0895 Babel >:
bring <5924 <ella> > me in before <6925 qodam > the king <4430
melek >, and I will shew <2324 chava> > unto the king <4430
melek > the interpretation <6591 p@shar >.



25 Then <0116 >edayin > Arioch <0746 >Aryowk > brought <5954
<alal > in Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > before <6925 qodam > the king
<4430 melek > in haste <0927 b@hal >, and said < 0560 >amar >
thus <3652 ken > unto him, I have found <4672 matsa> > a man
<1400 g@bar > of the captives of Judah <3061 Y@huwd >, that will
make known <3046 y@da< > unto the king <4430 melek > the
interpretation <6591 p@shar >.



26 The king <4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560
>amar > to Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >, whose <1768 diy > name <8036
shum > [was] Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar >, Art <0383
>iythay > thou able <3546 k@hal > to make known < 3046 y@da< >
unto me the dream <2493 chelem > which <1768 diy > I have seen
<2370 chaza> >, and the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof?



27 Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > answered <6032 <anah > in the
presence <6925 qodam > of the king <4430 melek >, and said <0560
>amar >, The secret <7328 raz > which <1768 diy > the king <4430
melek > hath demanded <7593 sh@>el > cannot the wise <2445
chakkiym > [men], the astrologers <0826 >ashshaph >, the
magicians <2749 chartom >, the soothsayers <1505 g@zar >, shew
<2324 chava> > unto the king <4430 melek >;



28 But there is a God <0426 >elahh > in heaven <8065 shamayin >
that revealeth <1541 g@lah > secrets <7328 raz >, and maketh
known <3046 y@da< > to the king <4430 melek > Nebuchadnezzar
<5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > what <4101 mah > shall be in the latter
<0320 >achariyth > days <3118 yowm >. Thy dream <2493 chelem >,
and the visions <2376 chezev > of thy head <7217 re> sh > upon
thy bed <4903 mishkab >, are these <1836 den >;



29 As for thee, O king <4430 melek >, thy thoughts < 7476
ra<yown > came <5559 c@liq > [into thy mind] upon thy bed <4903
mishkab >, what <4101 mah > should come <1934 hava> > to pass
hereafter: and he that revealeth <1541 g@lah > secrets < 7328 raz
> maketh known <3046 y@da< > to thee what <4101 mah > shall come

30 But as for me, this <1836 den > secret <7328 raz > is not
revealed <1541 g@lah > to me for [any] wisdom <2452 chokmah >
that I have <0383 >iythay > more <4481 min > than <4481 min >
any <3606 kol > living <2417 chay >, but for [their] sakes <1701
dibrah > that shall make known <3046 y@da< > the interpretation
<6591 p@shar > to the king <4430 melek >, and that thou mightest
know <3046 y@da< > the thoughts <7476 ra<yown > of thy heart
<3825 l@bab >.



31. Thou, O king <4430 melek >, sawest <2370 chaza> >, and
behold <0431 >aluw > a great <7690 saggiy> > image <6755 tselem
>. This <1797 dikken > great <7229 rab > image < 6755 tselem >,
whose brightness <2122 ziyv > [was] excellent <3493 yattiyr >,
stood <6966 quwm > before <6903 q@bel > thee; and the form <7299
rev > thereof [was] terrible <1763 d@chal >.



32 This <1931 huw> > image's <6755 tselem > head <7217 re>sh >
[was] of fine <2869 tab > gold <1722 d@hab >, his breast <2306
chadiy > and his arms <1672 da>ag > of silver < 3702 k@caph >,
his belly <4577 m@<ah > and his thighs <3410 yarka> > of brass
<5174 n@chash >,



33 His legs <8243 shaq > of iron <6523 parzel >, his feet <7271
r@gal > part <4481 min > of iron <6523 parzel > and part <4481
min > of clay <2635 chacaph >.



34 Thou sawest <2370 chaza> > till <5704 <ad > that a stone
<69> was cut <1505 g@zar > out without hands <3028 yad >, which
smote <4223 m@cha> > the image <6755 tselem > upon his feet
<7271 r@gal > [that were] of iron <6523 parzel > and clay <2635
chacaph >, and brake <1855 d@qaq > them to pieces.



35 Then <0116 >edayin > was the iron <6523 parzel >, the clay
<2635 chacaph >, the brass <5174 n@chash >, the silver <3702
k@caph >, and the gold <1722 d@hab >, broken <1854 daqaq > to
pieces together <2298 chad >, and became <1934 hava> > like the
chaff <5784 <uwr > of the summer <7007 qayit > threshingfloors
<0147 >iddar >; and the wind <7308 ruwach > carried <5376 n@sa>
> them away, that no place <0870 >athar > was found <7912
sh@kach > for them: and the stone <69> that smote < 4223 m@cha> >
the image <6755 tselem > became <1934 hava> > a great <7229 rab
> mountain <2906 tuwr >, and filled <4391 m@la> > the whole
<3606 kol > earth <0772 >ara< >.



36 This <1836 den > [is] the dream <2493 chelem >; and we will
tell <0560 >amar > the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof
before <6925 qodam > the king <4430 melek >.



37 Thou, O king <4430 melek >, [art] a king <4430 melek > of
kings <4430 melek >: for the God <0426 >elahh > of heaven <8065
shamayin > hath given <3052 y@hab > thee a kingdom < 4437 malkuw
>, power <2632 checen >, and strength <8632 t@qoph >, and glory
<3367 y@qar >.



38 And wheresoever the children <1123 ben > of men < 0606 >enash
> dwell <1753 duwr >, the beasts <2423 cheyva> > of the field
<1251 bar > and the fowls <5776 <owph > of the heaven <8065
shamayin > hath he given <3052 y@hab > into thine hand <3028 yad
>, and hath made thee ruler <7981 sh@let > over them all <3606
kol >. Thou [art] this <1931 huw> > head <7217 re>sh > of gold
<1722 d@hab >.



39 And after <0870 >athar > thee shall arise <6965 quwm >
another <0317 >ochoriy > kingdom <4437 malkuw > inferior <0772
>ara< > to thee, and another <0317 >ochoriy > third <8523
t@liythay > kingdom <4437 malkuw > of brass <5174 n@chash >,
which <1768 diy > shall bear <7981 sh@let > rule < 7981 sh@let >
over all <3606 kol > the earth <0772 >ara< >.



40 And the fourth <7244 r@biy<ay > kingdom <4437 malkuw > shall
be strong <8624 taqqiyph > as iron <6523 parzel >: forasmuch as
iron <6523 parzel > breaketh <1855 d@qaq > in pieces and
subdueth <2827 chashal > all <3606 kol > [things]: and as iron
<6523 parzel > that breaketh <7940 Sakar > all < 3606 kol > these
<0459 >illeyn >, shall it break <1854 daqaq > in pieces and
bruise <7490 r@<a< >.



41 And whereas <1768 diy > thou sawest <2370 chaza> > the feet
<7271 r@gal > and toes <0677 >etsba< >, part <4481 min > of
potters <6353 pechar >' clay <2635 chacaph >, and part <4481 min
> of iron <6523 parzel >, the kingdom <4437 malkuw > shall be
divided <6386 p@lag >; but there shall be in it of the strength
<5326 nitsbah > of the iron <6523 parzel >, forasmuch as thou
sawest <2370 chaza> > the iron <6523 parzel > mixed <6151 <arab
> with miry <2917 tiyn > clay <2635 chacaph >.



42 And [as] the toes <0677 >etsba< > of the feet < 7271 r@gal >
[were] part <4481 min > of iron <6523 parzel >, and part <4481
min > of clay <2635 chacaph >, [so] the kingdom <4437 malkuw >
shall be partly <7118 q@tsath > strong <8624 taqqiyph >, and
partly <7118 q@tsath > broken <8406 t@bar >.



43 And whereas <1768 diy > thou sawest <2370 chaza> > iron
<6523 parzel > mixed <6151 <arab > with miry < 2917 tiyn > clay
<2635 chacaph >, they shall mingle <6151 <arab > themselves with
the seed <2234 z@ra< > of men <0606 >enash >: but they shall not
cleave <1693 d@baq > one <1836 den > to another < 1836 den >,
even <1887 he> > as iron <6523 parzel > is not mixed <6151 <arab
> with clay <2635 chacaph >.



44 And in the days <3118 yowm > of these <0581 > innuwn > kings
<4430 melek > shall the God <0426 >elahh > of heaven <8065
shamayin > set <6966 quwm > up a kingdom <4437 malkuw >, which
<1768 diy > shall never be destroyed <2255 chabal >: and the
kingdom <4437 malkuw > shall not be left <7662 sh@baq > to other
<0321 >ochoran > people <5972 <am >, [but] it shall break <1854
daqaq > in pieces and consume <5487 cuwph > all <3606 kol >
these <0459 >illeyn > kingdoms <4437 malkuw >, and it shall
stand <6966 quwm > for ever <5957 <alam >.



45 Forasmuch as thou sawest <2370 chaza> > that the stone <69>
was cut <1505 g@zar > out of the mountain <2906 tuwr > without
hands <3028 yad >, and that it brake <1855 d@qaq > in pieces the
iron <6523 parzel >, the brass <5174 n@chash >, the clay <2635
chacaph >, the silver <3702 k@caph >, and the gold < 1722 d@hab >;
the great <7229 rab > God <0426 >elahh > hath made known <3046
y@da< > to the king <4430 melek > what <4101 mah > shall come
<1934 hava> > to pass hereafter: and the dream <2493 chelem >
[is] certain <3330 yatstsiyb >, and the interpretation < 6591
p@shar > thereof sure <0546 >omnah >.



46. Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > Nebuchadnezzar
<5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > fell <5308 n@phal > upon his face <0600
>anaph >, and worshipped <5457 c@gid > Daniel < 1841 Daniye>l >,
and commanded <0560 >amar > that they should offer < 5260 n@cak >
an oblation <8641 t@ruwmah > and sweet <5208 niychowach > odours
<5208 niychowach > unto him.



47 The king <4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > unto Daniel
<1841 Daniye>l >, and said <0560 >amar >, Of a truth <7187
q@showt > [it is], that your God <0426 >elahh > [is] a God <0426
>elahh > of gods <0426 >elahh >, and a Lord < 4756 mare> > of
kings <4430 melek >, and a revealer <1541 g@lah > of secrets
<7328 raz >, seeing <1768 diy > thou couldest < 3202 y@kel >
reveal <1541 g@lah > this <1836 den > secret <7328 raz >.



48 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > made <7236 r@bah
> Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > a great <7236 r@bah > man, and gave
<3052 y@hab > him many <7690 saggiy> > great < 7260 rabrab >
gifts <4978 matt@na> >, and made him ruler <7981 sh@let > over
<5922 <al > the whole <3606 kol > province < 4083 m@diynah > of
Babylon <0895 Babel >, and chief <7229 rab > of the governors
<5461 cagan > over <5922 <al > all <3606 kol > the wise <2445
chakkiym > [men] of Babylon <0895 Babel >.



49 Then Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > requested <1156 b@<a> > of the
king <4430 melek >, and he set <4483 m@na> > Shadrach <7715
Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego < 5665 <Abed
N@gow> >, over <5922 <al > the affairs <5673 <abiydah > of the
province <4083 m@diynah > of Babylon <0895 Babel >: but Daniel
<1841 Daniye>l > [sat] in the gate <8651 t@ra< > of the king
<4430 melek >.



Daniel 3



1. Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king < 4430 melek
> made <5648 <abad > an image <6755 tselem > of gold <1722 d@hab

shittiyn > cubits <0521 >ammah >, [and] the breadth <6613 p@thay

quwm > it up in the plain <1236 biq<a> > of Dura <1757 Duwra> >,
in the province <4083 m@diynah > of Babylon <0895 Babel >.



2 Then Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430
melek > sent <7972 sh@lach > to gather <3673 kanash > together
the princes <0324 >achashdarpan >, the governors < 5461 cagan >,
and the captains <6347 pechah >, the judges <0148 > adargazer >,
the treasurers <1411 g@dabar >, the counsellors <1884 d@thabar >,
the sheriffs <8614 tiphtay >, and all <3606 kol > the rulers
<7984 shiltown > of the provinces <4082 m@diynah >, to come
<0858 >athah > to the dedication <2597 chanukka> > of the image
<6755 tselem > which <1768 diy > Nebuchadnezzar < 5020
N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 melek > had set < 6966 quwm >
up.



3 Then <0116 >edayin > the princes <0324 > achashdarpan >, the
governors <5461 cagan >, and captains <6347 pechah >, the judges
<0148 >adargazer >, the treasurers <1411 g@dabar >, the
counsellors <1884 d@thabar >, the sheriffs <8614 tiphtay >, and
all <3606 kol > the rulers <7984 shiltown > of the provinces
<4082 m@diynah >, were gathered <3673 kanash > together unto the
dedication <2597 chanukka> > of the image <6755 tselem > that
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 melek >
had set <6966 quwm > up; and they stood <6966 quwm > before
<6903 q@bel > the image <6755 tselem > that Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar > had set <6966 quwm > up.



4 Then an herald <3744 karowz > cried <7123 q@ra> > aloud <2429
chayil >, To you it is commanded <0560 >amar >, O people <5972
<am >, nations <0524 >ummah >, and languages < 3961 lishshan >,



5 [That] at what <1768 diy > time <5732 <iddan > ye hear <8086
sh@ma< > the sound <7032 qal > of the cornet <7162 qeren >,
flute <4953 mashrowqiy >, harp <7030 qiytharoc >, sackbut <5443
cabb@ka> >, psaltery <6460 p@canteriyn >, dulcimer <5481
cuwmpown@yah >, and all <3606 kol > kinds <2177 zan > of musick

c@gid > the golden <1722 d@hab > image <6755 tselem > that
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 melek >
hath set <6966 quwm > up:



6 And whoso falleth <5308 n@phal > not down and worshippeth
<5457 c@gid > shall the same hour <8160 sha<ah > be cast <7412
r@mah > into the midst <1459 gav > of a burning <3345 y@qad >
fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >.





7 Therefore at that time <2166 z@man >, when <1768 diy > all
<3606 kol > the people <5972 <am > heard <8086 sh@ma< > the
sound <7032 qal > of the cornet <7162 qeren >, flute <4953
mashrowqiy >, harp <7030 qiytharoc >, sackbut <5443 cabb@ka> >,
psaltery <6460 p@canteriyn >, and all <3606 kol > kinds <2177
zan > of musick <2170 z@mar >, all <3606 kol > the people <5972
<am >, the nations <0524 >ummah >, and the languages <3961
lishshan >, fell <5308 n@phal > down [and] worshipped <5457
c@gid > the golden <1722 d@hab > image <6755 tselem > that
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 melek >
had set <6966 quwm > up.



8. Wherefore at that time <2166 z@man > certain <1400 g@bar >
Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > came <7127 q@reb > near < 7127 q@reb >,
and accused <7170 q@rats > the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy >.



9 They spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > to the king
<4430 melek > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar >, O king
<4430 melek >, live <2418 chaya> > for ever < 5957 <alam >.



10 Thou, O king <4430 melek >, hast made <7761 suwm > a decree
<2942 t@<em >, that every <3606 kol > man <0606 >enash > that
shall hear <8086 sh@ma< > the sound <7032 qal > of the cornet
<7162 qeren >, flute <4953 mashrowqiy >, harp < 7030 qiytharoc >,
sackbut <5443 cabb@ka> >, psaltery <6460 p@canteriyn >, and
dulcimer <5481 cuwmpown@yah >, and all <3606 kol > kinds <2177
zan > of musick <2170 z@mar >, shall fall <5308 n@phal > down
and worship <5457 c@gid > the golden <1722 d@hab > image <6755
tselem >:



11 And whoso falleth <5308 n@phal > not down and worshippeth
<5457 c@gid >, [that] he should be cast <7412 r@mah > into the
midst <1459 gav > of a burning <3345 y@qad > fiery <5135 nuwr >
furnace <0861 >attuwn >.



12 There are certain <1400 g@bar > Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > whom
<3487 yath > thou hast set <4483 m@na> > over < 5921 <al > the
affairs <5673 <abiydah > of the province <4083 m@diynah > of
Babylon <0895 Babel >, Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336
Meyshak >, and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >; these <0479 >illek

thee: they serve <6399 p@lach > not thy gods <0426 > elahh >, nor
<3809 la> > worship <5457 c@gid > the golden < 1722 d@hab > image
<6755 tselem > which <1768 diy > thou hast set < 6966 quwm > up.



13 Then <0116 >edayin > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar >
in [his] rage <7266 r@gaz > and fury <2528 chema> > commanded
<0560 >amar > to bring <0858 >athah > Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >,
Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >. Then
<0116 >edayin > they brought <0858 >athah > these <0479 >illek >
men <1400 g@bar > before <6925 qodam > the king < 4430 melek >.



14 Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > spake <6032 <anah >
and said <0560 >amar > unto them, [Is it] true <6656 ts@da> >, O
Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego
<5665 <Abed N@gow> >, do not ye serve <6399 p@lach > my gods
<0426 >elahh >, nor <3809 la> > worship < 5457 c@gid > the golden
<1722 d@hab > image <6755 tselem > which <1768 diy > I have set
<6966 quwm > up?



15 Now <3705 k@<an > if <2006 hen > ye be ready <6263 <athiyd >
that at what <1768 diy > time <5732 <iddan > ye hear <8086
sh@ma< > the sound <7032 qal > of the cornet <7162 qeren >,
flute <4953 mashrowqiy >, harp <7030 qiytharoc >, sackbut <5443
cabb@ka> >, psaltery <6460 p@canteriyn >, and dulcimer <5481
cuwmpown@yah >, and all <3606 kol > kinds <2177 zan > of musick
<2170 z@mar >, ye fall <5308 n@phal > down and worship <5457
c@gid > the image <6755 tselem > which <1768 diy > I have made
<5648 <abad >; [well]: but if <2006 hen > ye worship <5457 c@gid

<5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >; and who < 4479 man > [is]
that God <0426 >elahh > that shall deliver <7804 sh@zab > you
out of my hands <3028 yad >?



16 Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and
Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >, answered <6032 < anah > and said
<0560 >amar > to the king <4430 melek >, O Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar >, we [are] not careful <2818 chashach > to
answer <8421 tuwb > thee in this <1836 den > matter <6600
pithgam >.



17 If <2006 hen > it be [so], our God <0426 >elahh > whom <1768
diy > we serve <6399 p@lach > is able <3202 y@kel > to deliver
<7804 sh@zab > us from the burning <3345 y@qad > fiery <5135
nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >, and he will deliver <7804 sh@zab
> [us] out of thine hand <3028 yad >, O king <4430 melek >.



18 But if not, be it known <3046 y@da< > unto thee, O king
<4430 melek >, that we will not serve <6399 p@lach > thy gods
<0426 >elahh >, nor <3809 la> > worship < 5457 c@gid > the golden
<1722 d@hab > image <6755 tselem > which <1768 diy > thou hast
set <6966 quwm > up.



19. Then <0116 >edayin > was Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar > full <4391 m@la> > of fury < 2528 chema> >,
and the form <6755 tselem > of his visage <0600 > anaph > was
changed <8133 sh@na> > against <5922 <al > Shadrach <7715
Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego < 5665 <Abed
N@gow> >: [therefore] he spake <6032 <anah >, and commanded
<0560 >amar > that they should heat <0228 >aza> > the furnace
<0861 >attuwn > one <2298 chad > seven <7655 shib<ah > times
more <5922 <al > than <1768 diy > it was wont < 2370 chaza> > to
be heated <0228 >aza> >.



20 And he commanded <0560 >amar > the most <2429 chayil >
mighty <1401 gibbar > men <1400 g@bar > that [were] in his army
<2429 chayil > to bind <3729 k@phath > Shadrach < 7715 Shadrak >,
Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >,
[and] to cast <7412 r@mah > [them] into the burning < 3345 y@qad
> fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >.



21 Then <0116 >edayin > these <0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar >
were bound <3729 k@phath > in their coats <5622 carbal >, their
hosen <6361 pattiysh >, and their hats <3737 karb@la< >, and
their [other] garments <3831 l@buwsh >, and were cast < 7412
r@mah > into the midst <1459 gav > of the burning < 3345 y@qad >
fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >.



22 Therefore because the king's <4430 melek > commandment <4406
millah > was urgent <2685 chatsaph >, and the furnace <0861
>attuwn > exceeding <2493 chelem > hot <0228 > aza> >, the flame
<7631 s@biyb > of the fire <5135 nuwr > slew <6992 q@tal > those
<0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar > that took < 5267 n@caq > up
Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego
<5665 <Abed N@gow> >.



23 And these <0479 >illek > three <8532 t@lath > men <1400
g@bar >, Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and
Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >, fell <5308 n@phal > down bound
<3729 k@phath > into the midst <1459 gav > of the burning <3345
y@qad > fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >.



24 Then <0116 >edayin > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar >
the king <4430 melek > was astonied <8429 t@vahh >, and rose
<6965 quwm > up in haste <0927 b@hal >, [and] spake <6032 <anah

Did not we cast <7412 r@mah > three <8532 t@lath > men <1400
g@bar > bound <3729 k@phath > into the midst <1459 gav > of the
fire <5135 nuwr >? They answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560
>amar > unto the king <4430 melek >, True <3330 yatstsiyb >, O
king <4430 melek >.



25 He answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar >, Lo <1888
he> >, I see <2370 chaza> > four <0703 > arba< > men <1400 g@bar

gav > of the fire <5135 nuwr >, and they have <0383 >iythay > no
<3809 la> > hurt <2257 chabal >; and the form < 7299 rev > of the
fourth <7244 r@biy<ay > is like <1821 d@mah > the Son <1247 bar

26 Then <0116 >edayin > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar >
came <7127 q@reb > near <7127 q@reb > to the mouth <8651 t@ra< >
of the burning <3345 y@qad > fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861
>attuwn >, [and] spake <6032 <anah >, and said < 0560 >amar >,
Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego
<5665 <Abed N@gow> >, ye servants <5649 <abad > of the most
<5943 <illay > high <5943 <illay > God <0426 >elahh >, come
<5312 n@phaq > forth <5312 n@phaq >, and come < 0858 >athah >
[hither]. Then <0116 >edayin > Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach
<4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >, came <5312
n@phaq > forth <5312 n@phaq > of the midst <1459 gav > of the
fire <5135 nuwr >.



27 And the princes <0324 >achashdarpan >, governors < 5461 cagan
>, and captains <6347 pechah >, and the king's <4430 melek >
counsellors <1907 haddabar >, being gathered <3673 kanash >
together, saw <2370 chaza> > these <0479 >illek > men <1400
g@bar >, upon whose <1768 diy > bodies <1655 geshem > the fire
<5135 nuwr > had no <3809 la> > power <7981 sh@let >, nor <3809
la> > was an hair <8177 s@<ar > of their head < 7217 re>sh >
singed <2761 charak >, neither <3809 la> > were their coats
<5622 carbal > changed <8133 sh@na> >, nor < 3809 la> > the smell
<7382 reyach > of fire <5135 nuwr > had passed < 5709 <ada> > on
them.



28. [Then] Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > spake <6032
<anah >, and said <0560 >amar >, Blessed <1289 b@rak > [be] the
God <0426 >elahh > of Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336
Meyshak >, and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >, who <1768 diy >
hath sent <7972 sh@lach > his angel <4398 mal>ak >, and
delivered <7804 sh@zab > his servants <5649 <abad > that trusted
<7365 r@chats > in him, and have changed <8133 sh@na> > the
king's <4430 melek > word <4406 millah >, and yielded <3052
y@hab > their bodies <1655 geshem >, that they might not serve
<6399 p@lach > nor <3809 la> > worship <5457 c@gid > any <3606
kol > god <0426 >elahh >, except <3861 lawhen > their own God
<0426 >elahh >.



29 Therefore I make <7761 suwm > a decree <2942 t@< em >, That
every <3606 kol > people <5972 <am >, nation < 0524 >ummah >, and
language <3961 lishshan >, which <1768 diy > speak <0560 >amar >
any thing amiss <7955 shalah > against <5922 <al > the God <0426
>elahh > of Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach < 4336 Meyshak >,
and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >, shall be cut < 5648 <abad > in
pieces <1917 haddam >, and their houses <1005 bayith > shall be
made <7739 sh@vah > a dunghill <5122 n@valuw >: because there is
no <3809 la> > other <0321 >ochoran > God < 0426 >elahh > that
can <3202 y@kel > deliver <5338 n@tsal > after < 1863 dardar >
this <1836 den > sort.



30 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > promoted <6744
ts@lach > Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and
Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >, in the province < 4082 m@diynah >
of Babylon <0895 Babel >.



Daniel 4



1. Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king < 4430 melek
>, unto all <3606 kol > people <5972 <am >, nations <0524 >ummah

all <3606 kol > the earth <0772 >ara< >; Peace <8001 sh@lam > be
multiplied <7680 s@ga> > unto you.



2 I thought it good <8232 sh@phar > to shew <2324 chava> > the
signs <0852 >ath > and wonders <8540 t@mahh > that the high
<5943 <illay > God <0426 >elahh > hath wrought <5648 <abad >
toward <5974 <im > me.



3 How <4101 mah > great <7260 rabrab > [are] his signs <0852
>ath >! and how <4101 mah > mighty <8624 taqqiyph > [are] his
wonders <8540 t@mahh >! his kingdom <4437 malkuw > [is] an
everlasting <5957 <alam > kingdom <4437 malkuw >, and his
dominion <7985 sholtan > [is] from generation <1859 dar > to
generation <1859 dar >.



4. I Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > was at rest <7954
sh@lah > in mine house <1005 bayith >, and flourishing <7487
ra<anan > in my palace <1965 heykal >:



5 I saw <2370 chaza> > a dream <2493 chelem > which made me
afraid <1763 d@chal >, and the thoughts <2031 harhor > upon my
bed <4903 mishkab > and the visions <2376 chezev > of my head
<7217 re>sh > troubled <0927 b@hal > me.



6 Therefore made <7761 suwm > I a decree <2942 t@<em > to bring
<5924 <ella> > in all <3606 kol > the wise < 2445 chakkiym >
[men] of Babylon <0895 Babel > before <6925 qodam > me, that
they might make known <3046 y@da< > unto me the interpretation
<6591 p@shar > of the dream <2493 chelem >.



7 Then <0116 >edayin > came <5954 <alal > in the magicians
<2749 chartom >, the astrologers <0826 >ashshaph >, the
Chaldeans <3779 Kasday >, and the soothsayers <1505 g@zar >: and
I told <0560 >amar > the dream <2493 chelem > before <6925 qodam
> them; but they did not make known <3046 y@da< > unto me the
interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof.



8 But at <5706 <ad > the last <0318 >ochoreyn > Daniel <1841
Daniye>l > came <5954 <alal > in before me, whose <1768 diy >
name <8036 shum > [was] Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha> tstsar >,
according to the name <8036 shum > of my god <0426 > elahh >, and
in whom <1768 diy > [is] the spirit <7308 ruwach > of the holy
<6922 qaddiysh > gods <0426 >elahh >: and before <6925 qodam >
him I told <0560 >amar > the dream <2493 chelem >, [saying],



9 O Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar >, master < 0729 >araz >
of the magicians <2749 chartom >, because <1768 diy > I know
<3046 y@da< > that the spirit <7308 ruwach > of the holy <6922
qaddiysh > gods <0426 >elahh > [is] in thee, and no secret <7328
raz > troubleth <0598 >anac > thee, tell <0560 > amar > me the
visions <2376 chezev > of my dream <2493 chelem > that I have
seen <2370 chaza> >, and the interpretation <6591 p@shar >
thereof.



10 Thus [were] the visions <2376 chezev > of mine head < 7217
re>sh > in my bed <4903 mishkab >; I saw <2370 chaza> >, and
behold <0431 >aluw > a tree <0363 >iylan > in the midst <1459
gav > of the earth <0772 >ara< >, and the height <7314 ruwm >
thereof [was] great <7690 saggiy> >.



11 The tree <0363 >iylan > grew <7236 r@bah >, and was strong
<8631 t@qeph >, and the height <7314 ruwm > thereof reached
<4291 m@ta> > unto heaven <8065 shamayin >, and the sight <2379
chazowth > thereof to the end <5491 cowph > of all < 3606 kol >
the earth <0772 >ara< >:



12 The leaves <6074 <ophiy > thereof [were] fair < 8509 takriyk
>, and the fruit <4> thereof much <7690 saggiy> >, and in it
[was] meat <4203 mazown > for all <3606 kol >: the beasts <2423
cheyva> > of the field <1251 bar > had shadow < 2927 t@lal >
under <8460 t@chowth > it, and the fowls <6853 ts@phar > of the
heaven <8065 shamayin > dwelt <1753 duwr > in the boughs <6056
<anaph > thereof, and all <3606 kol > flesh <1321 b@sar > was
fed <2110 zuwn > of it.



13 I saw <2370 chaza> > in the visions <2376 chezev > of my
head <7217 re>sh > upon my bed <4903 mishkab >, and, behold
<0431 >aluw >, a watcher <5894 <iyr > and an holy <6922 qaddiysh
> one came <5182 n@chath > down <5182 n@chath > from heaven
<8065 shamayin >;



14 He cried <7123 q@ra> > aloud <2429 chayil >, and said <0560
>amar > thus <3652 ken >, Hew <1414 g@dad > down the tree <0363
>iylan >, and cut <7113 q@tsats > off his branches <6056 <anaph
>, shake <5426 n@ther > off <0575 >an > his leaves <6074 <ophiy
>, and scatter <0921 b@dar > his fruit <4>: let the beasts <2423
cheyva> > get <5111 nuwd > away <5111 nuwd > from under <8478
tachath > it, and the fowls <6853 ts@phar > from his branches
<6056 <anaph >:





15 Nevertheless <1297 b@ram > leave <7662 sh@baq > the stump
<6136 <iqqar > of his roots <8330 shoresh > in the earth <0772
>ara< >, even with a band <0613 >ecuwr > of iron <6523 parzel >
and brass <5174 n@chash >, in the tender grass <1883 dethe> > of
the field <1251 bar >; and let it be wet <6647 ts@ba< > with the
dew <2920 tal > of heaven <8065 shamayin >, and [let] his
portion <2508 chalaq > [be] with the beasts <2423 cheyva> > in
the grass <6211 <ash > of the earth <0772 >ara< >:



16 Let his heart <3825 l@bab > be changed <8133 sh@na> > from
man's <0606 >enash >, and let a beast's <2423 cheyva> > heart
<3825 l@bab > be given <3052 y@hab > unto him; and let seven
<7655 shib<ah > times <5732 <iddan > pass < 2499 chalaph > over
<5922 <al > him.



17 This matter <6600 pithgam > [is] by the decree <1510 g@zerah
> of the watchers <5894 <iyr >, and the demand < 7595 sh@>ela> >
by the word <3983 me>mar > of the holy <6922 qaddiysh > ones: to
the intent <1701 dibrah > that the living <2417 chay > may know
<3046 y@da< > that the most <5943 <illay > High <5943 <illay >
ruleth <7980 shalat > in the kingdom <4437 malkuw > of men <0606
>enash >, and giveth <5415 n@than > it to whomsoever <4479 man >
he will <6634 ts@ba> >, and setteth <6966 quwm > up over <5922
<al > it the basest <8215 sh@phal > of men <0606 >enash >.



18 This <1836 den > dream <2493 chelem > I king < 4430 melek >
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > have seen <2370 chaza> >.
Now thou, O Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar >, declare <0560
>amar > the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof, forasmuch as
all <3606 kol > the wise <2445 chakkiym > [men] of my kingdom
<4437 malkuw > are not able <3202 y@kel > to make known <3046
y@da< > unto me the interpretation <6591 p@shar >: but thou
[art] able <3546 k@hal >; for the spirit <7308 ruwach > of the
holy <6922 qaddiysh > gods <0426 >elahh > [is] in thee.



19. Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >, whose <1768
diy > name <8036 shum > [was] Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar
>, was astonied <8075 sh@mam > for one <2298 chad > hour <8160
sha<ah >, and his thoughts <7476 ra<yown > troubled <0927 b@hal

<0560 >amar >, Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar >, let not the
dream <2493 chelem >, or the interpretation <6591 p@shar >
thereof, trouble <0927 b@hal > thee. Belteshazzar <1096
Belt@sha>tstsar > answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar >,
My lord <4756 mare> >, the dream <2493 chelem > [be] to them
that hate <8131 s@ne> > thee, and the interpretation < 6591
p@shar > thereof to thine enemies <6146 <ar >.



20 The tree <0363 >iylan > that thou sawest <2370 chaza> >,
which <1768 diy > grew <7236 r@bah >, and was strong <8631
t@qeph >, whose height <7314 ruwm > reached <4291 m@ta> > unto
the heaven <8065 shamayin >, and the sight <2379 chazowth >
thereof to all <3606 kol > the earth <0772 >ara< >;



21 Whose leaves <6074 <ophiy > [were] fair <8509 takriyk >, and
the fruit <4> thereof much <7690 saggiy> >, and in it [was] meat
<4203 mazown > for all <3606 kol >; under <8460 t@chowth > which
the beasts <2423 cheyva> > of the field <1251 bar > dwelt <1753
duwr >, and upon whose branches <6056 <anaph > the fowls <6853
ts@phar > of the heaven <8065 shamayin > had their habitation
<7932 sh@kan >:



22 It [is] thou, O king <4430 melek >, that art grown < 7236
r@bah > and become <8631 t@qeph > strong <8631 t@qeph >: for thy
greatness <7238 r@buw > is grown <7236 r@bah >, and reacheth
<4291 m@ta> > unto heaven <8065 shamayin >, and thy dominion
<7985 sholtan > to the end <5491 cowph > of the earth <0772
>ara< >.



23 And whereas <1768 diy > the king <4430 melek > saw <2370
chaza> > a watcher <5894 <iyr > and an holy < 6922 qaddiysh > one
coming <5182 n@chath > down <5182 n@chath > from heaven <8065
shamayin >, and saying <0560 >amar >, Hew <1414 g@dad > the tree
<0363 >iylan > down, and destroy <2255 chabal > it; yet <1297
b@ram > leave <7662 sh@baq > the stump <6136 < iqqar > of the
roots <8330 shoresh > thereof in the earth <0772 > ara< >, even
with a band <0613 >ecuwr > of iron <6523 parzel > and brass
<5174 n@chash >, in the tender grass <1883 dethe> > of the field
<1251 bar >; and let it be wet <6647 ts@ba< > with the dew <2920
tal > of heaven <8065 shamayin >, and [let] his portion <2508
chalaq > [be] with the beasts <2423 cheyva> > of the field <1251
bar >, till <5704 <ad > seven <7655 shib<ah > times <5732 <iddan
> pass <2499 chalaph > over <5922 <al > him;



24 This <1836 den > [is] the interpretation <6591 p@shar >, O
king <4430 melek >, and this <1931 huw> > [is] the decree <1510
g@zerah > of the most <5943 <illay > High <5943 <illay >, which
<1768 diy > is come <4291 m@ta> > upon my lord < 4756 mare> > the
king <4430 melek >:



25 That they shall drive <2957 t@rad > thee from men < 0606
>enash >, and thy dwelling <4070 m@dowr > shall be with the
beasts <2423 cheyva> > of the field <1251 bar >, and they shall
make thee to eat <2939 t@<am > grass <6211 <ash > as oxen <8450
towr >, and they shall wet <6647 ts@ba< > thee with the dew
<2920 tal > of heaven <8065 shamayin >, and seven < 7655 shib<ah

> thee, till <5704 <ad > thou know <3046 y@da< > that the most
<5943 <illay > High ruleth <7980 shalat > in the kingdom <4437
malkuw > of men <0606 >enash >, and giveth <5415 n@than > it to
whomsoever <4479 man > he will <6634 ts@ba> >.



26 And whereas <1768 diy > they commanded <0560 > amar > to
leave <7662 sh@baq > the stump <6136 <iqqar > of the tree <0363
>iylan > roots <8330 shoresh >; thy kingdom <4437 malkuw > shall
be sure <7011 qayam > unto thee, after <1767 day > that thou
shalt have known <3046 y@da< > that the heavens <8065 shamayin >
do rule <7990 shalliyt >.



27 Wherefore <3861 lawhen >, O king <4430 melek >, let my
counsel <4431 m@lak > be acceptable <8232 sh@phar > unto thee,
and break <6562 p@raq > off thy sins <2408 chatiy > by
righteousness <6665 tsidqah >, and thine iniquities < 5758 <ivya>
> by shewing mercy <2604 chanan > to the poor <6033 <anah >; if
<2006 hen > it may be a lengthening <0754 >arka> > of thy
tranquillity <7963 sh@levah >.



28. All <3606 kol > this came <4291 m@ta> > upon the king <4430
melek > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar >.



29 At the end <7118 q@tsath > of twelve months <3393 y@rach >
he walked <1981 halak > in the palace <1965 heykal > of the
kingdom <4437 malkuw > of Babylon <0895 Babel >.



30 The king <4430 melek > spake <6032 <anah >, and said <0560
>amar >, Is not this <1668 da> > great <7227 rab > Babylon <0895
Babel >, that I have built <1124 b@na> > for the house <1005
bayith > of the kingdom <4437 malkuw > by the might < 8632 t@qoph
> of my power <2632 checen >, and for the honour < 3367 y@qar >
of my majesty <1923 hadar >?



31 While <5751 <owd > the word <4406 millah > [was] in the
king's <4430 melek > mouth <6433 pum >, there fell <5308 n@phal
> a voice <7032 qal > from heaven <8065 shamayin >, [saying], O
king <4430 melek > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar >, to
thee it is spoken <0560 >amar >; The kingdom <4437 malkuw > is
departed <5709 <ada> > from thee.



32 And they shall drive <2957 t@rad > thee from men < 0606
>enash >, and thy dwelling <4070 m@dowr > [shall be] with the
beasts <2423 cheyva> > of the field <1251 bar >: they shall make
thee to eat <2939 t@<am > grass <6211 <ash > as oxen <8450 towr

<2499 chalaph > over <5922 <al > thee, until < 5704 <ad > thou
know <3046 y@da< > that the most <5943 <illay > High <5943
<illay > ruleth <7980 shalat > in the kingdom < 4437 malkuw > of
men <0606 >enash >, and giveth <5415 n@than > it to whomsoever
<4479 man > he will <6634 ts@ba> >.



33 The same hour <8160 sha<ah > was the thing <4406 millah >
fulfilled <5487 cuwph > upon Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar >: and he was driven <2957 t@rad > from men
<0606 >enash >, and did eat <0399 >akal > grass <6211 <ash > as
oxen <8450 towr >, and his body <1655 geshem > was wet <6647
ts@ba< > with the dew <2920 tal > of heaven <8065 shamayin >,
till <5704 <ad > his hairs <8177 s@<ar > were grown <7236 r@bah
> like eagles <5403 n@shar >' [feathers], and his nails <2953
t@phar > like birds <6853 ts@phar >' [claws].





34. And at the end <7118 q@tsath > of the days <3118 yowm > I
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > lifted <5191 n@tal > up
mine eyes <5870 <ayin > unto heaven <8065 shamayin >, and mine
understanding <4486 manda< > returned <7725 shuwb > unto me, and
I blessed <1289 b@rak > the most <5943 <illay > High <5943
<illay >, and I praised <7624 sh@bach > and honoured <1922 hadar

<1768 diy > dominion <7985 sholtan > [is] an everlasting <5957
<alam > dominion <7985 sholtan >, and his kingdom < 4437 malkuw >
[is] from generation <1859 dar > to generation <1859 dar >:



35 And all <3606 kol > the inhabitants <1753 duwr > of the
earth <0772 >ara< > [are] reputed <2804 chashab > as nothing

<4101 mah > doest <5648 <abad > thou?



36 At the same time <2166 z@man > my reason <4486 manda< >
returned <7725 shuwb > unto me; and for the glory <3367 y@qar >
of my kingdom <4437 malkuw >, mine honour <1923 hadar > and
brightness <2122 ziyv > returned <7725 shuwb > unto me; and my
counsellors <1907 haddabar > and my lords <7261 rabr@ban >
sought <1158 ba<ah > unto me; and I was established < 8627 t@qan

majesty <7238 r@buw > was added <3255 y@caph > unto me.



37 Now <3705 k@<an > I Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar >
praise <7624 sh@bach > and extol <7313 ruwm > and honour <1922

Daniel 5



1. Belshazzar <1113 Belsha>tstsar > the king <4430 melek > made
<5648 <abad > a great <7227 rab > feast <3900 l@chem > to a
thousand <0506 >alaph > of his lords <7261 rabr@ban >, and drank
<8355 sh@thah > wine <2562 chamar > before <6903 q@bel > the
thousand <0506 >alaph >.



2 Belshazzar <1113 Belsha>tstsar >, whiles he tasted <2942
t@<em > the wine <2562 chamar >, commanded <0560 >amar > to
bring <0858 >athah > the golden <1722 d@hab > and silver <3702
k@caph > vessels <3984 ma>n > which <1768 diy > his father <2>
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > had taken <5312 n@phaq >
out of the temple <1965 heykal > which <1768 diy > [was] in
Jerusalem <3390 Y@ruwshalem (Chald) >; that the king < 4430 melek
>, and his princes <7261 rabr@ban >, his wives <7695 shegal >,
and his concubines <3904 l@chenah >, might drink <8355 sh@thah >
therein.



3 Then <0116 >edayin > they brought <0858 >athah > the golden
<1722 d@hab > vessels <3984 ma>n > that were taken <5312 n@phaq
> out of the temple <1965 heykal > of the house <1005 bayith >
of God <0426 >elahh > which <1768 diy > [was] at Jerusalem <3390
Y@ruwshalem (Chald) >; and the king <4430 melek >, and his
princes <7261 rabr@ban >, his wives <7695 shegal >, and his
concubines <3904 l@chenah >, drank <8355 sh@thah > in them.



4 They drank <8355 sh@thah > wine <2562 chamar >, and praised
<7624 sh@bach > the gods <0426 >elahh > of gold <1722 d@hab >,
and of silver <3702 k@caph >, of brass <5174 n@chash > , of iron
<6523 parzel >, of wood <0636 >a< >, and of stone <69>.



5 In the same hour <8160 sha<ah > came <5312 n@phaq > forth
<5312 n@phaq > fingers <0677 >etsba< > of a man's <0606 >enash >
hand <3028 yad >, and wrote <3790 k@thab > over < 6903 q@bel >
against <6903 q@bel > the candlestick <5043 nebr@sha> > upon the
plaister <1528 giyr > of the wall <3797 k@thal > of the king's
<4430 melek > palace <1965 heykal >: and the king < 4430 melek >
saw <2370 chaza> > the part <6447 pac > of the hand <3028 yad >
that wrote <3790 k@thab >.



6 Then <0116 >edayin > the king's <4430 melek > countenance
<2122 ziyv > was changed <8133 sh@na> >, and his thoughts <7476
ra<yown > troubled <0927 b@hal > him, so that the joints <7001
q@tar > of his loins <2788 charer > were loosed <8271 sh@re> >,
and his knees <0755 >arkubah > smote <5368 n@qash > one <1668

7 The king <4430 melek > cried <7123 q@ra> > aloud <2429 chayil
> to bring <5924 <ella> > in the astrologers < 0826 >ashshaph >,
the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday >, and the soothsayers <1505 g@zar >.
[And] the king <4430 melek > spake <6032 <anah >, and said <0560
>amar > to the wise <2445 chakkiym > [men] of Babylon <0895
Babel >, Whosoever <3605 kol > shall read <7123 q@ra> > this
<1836 den > writing <3792 k@thab >, and shew <2324 chava> > me
the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof, shall be clothed
<3848 l@bash > with scarlet <0711 >arg@van >, and [have] a chain
<2002 hamniyk > of gold <1722 d@hab > about <5922 <al > his neck
<6676 tsavva>r >, and shall be the third <8523 t@liythay > ruler
<7981 sh@let > in the kingdom <4437 malkuw >.



8 Then <0116 >edayin > came <5954 <alal > in all <3606 kol >
the king's <4430 melek > wise <2445 chakkiym > [men]: but they
could <3546 k@hal > not read <7123 q@ra> > the writing <3792
k@thab >, nor make known <3046 y@da< > to the king <4430 melek >
the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof.



9 Then <0116 >edayin > was king <4430 melek > Belshazzar <1113
Belsha>tstsar > greatly <7690 saggiy> > troubled <0927 b@hal >,
and his countenance <2122 ziyv > was changed <8133 sh@na> > in
him, and his lords <7261 rabr@ban > were astonied <2672 chatsab

10. [Now] the queen <4433 malka> >, by reason <6903 q@bel > of
the words <4406 millah > of the king <4430 melek > and his lords
<7261 rabr@ban >, came <5954 <alal > into the banquet <4961
mishteh > house <1005 bayith >: [and] the queen <4433 malka> >
spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar >, O king <4430 melek >,
live <2414 chataph > for ever <5957 <alam >: let not thy
thoughts <7476 ra<yown > trouble <0927 b@hal > thee, nor <0408
>al > let thy countenance <2122 ziyv > be changed < 8133 sh@na> >:



11 There is a man <1400 g@bar > in thy kingdom <4437 malkuw >,
in whom <1768 diy > [is] the spirit <7308 ruwach > of the holy
<6922 qaddiysh > gods <0426 >elahh >; and in the days <3118 yowm
> of thy father <2> light <5094 n@hiyr > and understanding <7924
sokl@thanuw > and wisdom <2452 chokmah >, like the wisdom <2452
chokmah > of the gods <0426 >elahh >, was found < 7912 sh@kach >
in him; whom the king <4430 melek > Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar > thy father <2>, the king <4430 melek >, [I
say], thy father <2>, made master <0729 >araz > of the magicians
<2749 chartom >, astrologers <0826 >ashshaph >, Chaldeans <3779
Kasday >, [and] soothsayers <1505 g@zar >;



12 Forasmuch as an excellent <3493 yattiyr > spirit < 7308
ruwach >, and knowledge <0998 biynah >, and understanding <7924
sokl@thanuw >, interpreting <6591 p@shar > of dreams < 2493
chelem >, and shewing <0263 >achavah > of hard < 0280 >achiydah >
sentences <0280 >achiydah >, and dissolving <8271 sh@re> > of
doubts <7001 q@tar >, were found <7912 sh@kach > in the same
Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >, whom <1768 diy > the king <4430 melek >
named <8036 shum > Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar >: now
<3705 k@<an > let Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > be called <7123 q@ra>

p@shar >.



13 Then <0116 >edayin > was Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > brought
<5954 <alal > in before <6925 qodam > the king < 4430 melek >.
[And] the king <4430 melek > spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560
>amar > unto Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >, [Art] thou that Daniel
<1841 Daniye>l >, which <1768 diy > [art] of the children <1123
ben > of the captivity <1547 galuwth > of Judah <3061 Y@huwd >,
whom <1768 diy > the king <4430 melek > my father < 2> brought
<0858 >athah > out of Jewry <3061 Y@huwd >?



14 I have even heard <8086 sh@ma< > of thee, that the spirit
<7308 ruwach > of the gods <0426 >elahh > [is] in thee, and
[that] light <5094 n@hiyr > and understanding <7924 sokl@thanuw
> and excellent <3493 yattiyr > wisdom <2452 chokmah > is found
<7912 sh@kach > in thee.



15 And now <3705 k@<an > the wise <2445 chakkiym > [men], the
astrologers <0826 >ashshaph >, have been brought < 5954 <alal >
in before <6925 qodam > me, that they should read <7123 q@ra> >
this <1836 den > writing <3792 k@thab >, and make known <3046
y@da< > unto me the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof: but
they could <5346 Neqeb > not shew <2324 chava> > the
interpretation <6591 p@shar > of the thing <4406 millah >:



16 And I have heard <8086 sh@ma< > of thee, that thou canst
<3202 y@kel > make interpretations <6591 p@shar >, and dissolve
<8271 sh@re> > doubts <7001 q@tar >: now <3705 k@<an > if <2006
hen > thou canst <3202 y@kel > read <7123 q@ra> > the writing
<3792 k@thab >, and make known <3046 y@da< > to me the
interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof, thou shalt be clothed
<3848 l@bash > with scarlet <0711 >arg@van >, and [have] a chain
<2002 hamniyk > of gold <1722 d@hab > about <5922 <al > thy neck
<6676 tsavva>r >, and shalt be the third <8531 t@lath > ruler
<7981 sh@let > in the kingdom <4437 malkuw >.



17 Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > answered <6032
<anah > and said <0560 >amar > before <6925 qodam > the king
<4430 melek >, Let thy gifts <4978 matt@na> > be to thyself, and
give <3052 y@hab > thy rewards <5023 n@bizbah > to another <0321
>ochoran >; yet <1297 b@ram > I will read <7123 q@ra> > the
writing <3792 k@thab > unto the king <4430 melek >, and make
known <3046 y@da< > to him the interpretation <6591 p@shar >.



18 O thou king <4430 melek >, the most <5943 <illay > high
<5943 <illay > God <0426 >elahh > gave <3052 y@hab >
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > thy father <2> a kingdom
<4437 malkuw >, and majesty <7238 r@buw >, and glory <3367 y@qar
>, and honour <1923 hadar >:



19 And for the majesty <7238 r@buw > that he gave <3052 y@hab >
him, all <3606 kol > people <5972 <am >, nations <0524 >ummah >,
and languages <3961 lishshan >, trembled <2112 zuwa< > and
feared <1763 d@chal > before him: whom <1768 diy > he would
<6634 ts@ba> > he slew <6992 q@tal >; and whom < 1768 diy > he
would <6634 ts@ba> > he kept alive <2418 chaya> >; and whom
<1768 diy > he would <6634 ts@ba> > he set < 7313 ruwm > up; and
whom he would <6634 ts@ba> > he put <8214 sh@phal > down <8214
sh@phal >.



20 But when <1768 diy > his heart <3825 l@bab > was lifted
<7313 ruwm > up, and his mind <7307 ruwach > hardened <8631
t@qeph > in pride <2103 zuwd >, he was deposed <5182 n@chath >
from his kingly <4437 malkuw > throne <3764 korce> >, and they
took <5709 <ada> > his glory <3367 y@qar > from him:



21 And he was driven <2957 t@rad > from the sons <1123 ben > of
men <0606 >enash >; and his heart <3825 l@bab > was made <7737
shavah > like <5974 <im > the beasts <2423 cheyva> >, and his
dwelling <4070 m@dowr > [was] with the wild <6167 < arad > asses
<6167 <arad >: they fed <2939 t@<am > him with grass <6211 <ash
> like oxen <8450 towr >, and his body <1655 geshem > was wet
<6647 ts@ba< > with the dew <2920 tal > of heaven <8065 shamayin
>; till <5704 <ad > he knew <3046 y@da< > that the most <5943
<illay > high <5943 <illay > God <0426 > elahh > ruled <7990
shalliyt > in the kingdom <4437 malkuw > of men <0606 >enash >,
and [that] he appointeth <6966 quwm > over <5922 <al > it
whomsoever he will <6634 ts@ba> >.



22 And thou his son <1247 bar >, O Belshazzar <1113
Belsha>tstsar >, hast not humbled <8214 sh@phal > thine heart
<3825 l@bab >, though thou knewest <3046 y@da< > all <3606 kol >
this <1836 den >;



23 But hast lifted <7313 ruwm > up thyself against < 5922 <al >
the Lord <4756 mare> > of heaven <8065 shamayin >; and they have
brought <0858 >athah > the vessels <3984 ma>n > of his house
<1005 bayith > before <6925 qodam > thee, and thou, and thy
lords <7261 rabr@ban >, thy wives <7695 shegal >, and thy
concubines <3904 l@chenah >, have drunk <8355 sh@thah > wine
<2562 chamar > in them; and thou hast praised <7624 sh@bach >
the gods <0426 >elahh > of silver <3702 k@caph >, and gold <1722
d@hab >, of brass <5174 n@chash >, iron <6523 parzel >, wood
<0636 >a< >, and stone <69>, which <1768 diy > see <2370 chaza>

<3046 y@da< >: and the God <0426 >elahh > in whose <1768 diy >
hand <3028 yad > thy breath <5396 nishma> > [is], and whose
[are] all <3606 kol > thy ways <0735 >orach >, hast thou not
glorified <1922 hadar >:



24 Then <0116 >edayin > was the part <6447 pac > of the hand
<3028 yad > sent <7972 sh@lach > from him; and this <1836 den >
writing <3792 k@thab > was written <7560 r@sham >.



25 And this <1836 den > [is] the writing <3792 k@thab > that
was written <7560 r@sham >, MENE <4484 mene> >, MENE <4484 mene>

26 This <1836 den > [is] the interpretation <6591 p@shar > of
the thing <4406 millah >: MENE <4484 mene> >; God <0426 >elahh >
hath numbered <4483 m@na> > thy kingdom <4437 malkuw >, and
finished <8000 sh@lam > it.



27 TEKEL <8625 t@qal >; Thou art weighed <8625 t@qal > in the
balances <3976 mo>zen >, and art found <7912 sh@kach > wanting
<2627 chacciyr >.



28 PERES <6537 p@rac >; Thy kingdom <4437 malkuw > is divided
<6537 p@rac >, and given <3052 y@hab > to the Medes <4076 Maday
> and Persians <6540 Parac >.



29 Then <0116 >edayin > commanded <0560 >amar > Belshazzar
<1113 Belsha>tstsar >, and they clothed <3848 l@bash > Daniel
<1841 Daniye>l > with scarlet <0711 >arg@van >, and [put] a
chain <2002 hamniyk > of gold <1722 d@hab > about < 5922 <al >
his neck <6676 tsavva>r >, and made a proclamation < 3745 k@raz >
concerning <5922 <al > him, that he should be the third <8531
t@lath > ruler <7990 shalliyt > in the kingdom <4437 malkuw >.



30. In that night <3916 leyl@ya> > was Belshazzar < 1113
Belsha>tstsar > the king <4430 melek > of the Chaldeans <3779
Kasday > slain <6992 q@tal >.



31 And Darius <1868 Dar@yavesh > the Median <4077 Maday > took
<6902 q@bal > the kingdom <4437 malkuw >, [being] about
threescore <8361 shittiyn > and two <8648 t@reyn > years <8140
sh@nah > old <1247 bar >.



Daniel 6



1. It pleased <8232 sh@phar > Darius <1868 Dar@yavesh > to set
<3966 m@<od > over <5922 <al > the kingdom < 4437 malkuw > an
hundred <3969 ma>ah > and twenty <6243 <esriyn > princes <0324
>achashdarpan >, which <1768 diy > should be over the whole
<3606 kol > kingdom <4437 malkuw >;



2 And over <5924 <ella> > these <4481 min > three <8532 t@lath

[was] first <2298 chad >: that the princes <0324 > achashdarpan >
might give <3052 y@hab > accounts <2941 ta<am > unto them, and
the king <4430 melek > should have <1934 hava> > no <3809 la> >
damage <5142 n@zaq >.



3 Then <0116 >edayin > this <1836 den > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >
was preferred <5330 n@tsach > above <5922 <al > the presidents
<5632 carek > and princes <0324 >achashdarpan >, because an
excellent <3493 yattiyr > spirit <7308 ruwach > [was] in him;
and the king <4430 melek > thought <6246 <ashith > to set <3966
m@<od > him over <5922 <al > the whole <3606 kol > realm <4437
malkuw >.



4 Then <0116 >edayin > the presidents <5632 carek > and princes
<0324 >achashdarpan > sought <1158 ba<ah > to find <7912 sh@kach

concerning <6655 tsad > the kingdom <4437 malkuw >; but they
could <3202 y@kel > find <7912 sh@kach > none < 3809 la> >
occasion <5931 <illah > nor <3809 la> > fault <7844 sh@chath >;
forasmuch as he [was] faithful <0540 >aman >, neither <3809 la>

sh@chath > found <7912 sh@kach > in him.



5 Then <0116 >edayin > said <0560 >amar > these <0479 >illek >
men <1400 g@bar >, We shall not find <7912 sh@kach > any <3606

sh@kach > [it] against him concerning the law <1882 dath > of
his God <0426 >elahh >.



6. Then <0116 >edayin > these <0459 >illeyn > presidents <5632
carek > and princes <0324 >achashdarpan > assembled <7284 r@gash

thus <3652 ken > unto him, King <4430 melek > Darius <1868
Dar@yavesh >, live <2414 chataph > for ever <5757 < Avviy >.



7 All <3606 kol > the presidents <5632 carek > of the kingdom
<4437 malkuw >, the governors <5461 cagan >, and the princes
<0324 >achashdarpan >, the counsellors <1907 haddabar >, and the
captains <6347 pechah >, have consulted <3272 y@<at > together
to establish <6966 quwm > a royal <4430 melek > statute <7010
q@yam >, and to make a firm <8631 t@qeph > decree < 0633 >ecar >,
that whosoever <3605 kol > shall ask <1156 b@<a> > a petition

<3861 lawhen > of thee, O king <4430 melek >, he shall be cast
<7412 r@mah > into the den <1358 gob > of lions < 0744 >aryeh >.



8 Now <3705 k@<an >, O king <4430 melek >, establish <6966 quwm

<3792 k@thab >, that it be not changed <8133 sh@na> >, according
to the law <1882 dath > of the Medes <4076 Maday > and Persians
<6540 Parac >, which <1768 diy > altereth <5709 <ada> > not.



9 Wherefore king <4430 melek > Darius <1868 Dar@yavesh > signed
<7560 r@sham > the writing <3792 k@thab > and the decree <0633
>ecar >.



10 Now <1768 diy > when <1768 diy > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >
knew <3046 y@da< > that the writing <3792 k@thab > was signed
<7560 r@sham >, he went <5954 <alal > into his house <1005
bayith >; and his windows <3551 kav > being open < 6606 p@thach >
in his chamber <5952 <alliyth > toward <5049 neged > Jerusalem
<3390 Y@ruwshalem (Chald) >, he kneeled <1289 b@rak > upon his
knees <1291 berek > three <8532 t@lath > times < 2166 z@man > a
day <3118 yowm >, and prayed <6739 ts@la> >, and gave thanks
<3029 y@da> > before <6925 qodam > his God < 0426 >elahh >, as he
did <5648 <abad > aforetime.



11. Then <0116 >edayin > these <0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar >
assembled <7284 r@gash >, and found <7912 sh@kach > Daniel <1841
Daniye>l > praying <1156 b@<a> > and making supplication <2604
chanan > before <6925 qodam > his God <0426 >elahh >.



12 Then <0116 >edayin > they came <7127 q@reb > near <7127
q@reb >, and spake <0560 >amar > before <6925 qodam > the king
<4430 melek > concerning <5922 <al > the king's <4430 melek >
decree <0633 >ecar >; Hast thou not signed <7560 r@sham > a
decree <0633 >ecar >, that every <3606 kol > man <0606 >enash >
that shall ask <1156 b@<a> > [a petition] of any < 3606 kol > God
<0426 >elahh > or man <0606 >enash > within < 5705 <ad > thirty
<8533 t@lathiyn > days <3118 yowm >, save <3861 lawhen > of thee,
O king <4430 melek >, shall be cast <7412 r@mah > into the den
<1358 gob > of lions <0744 >aryeh >? The king < 4430 melek >
answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar >, The thing <4406
millah > [is] true <3330 yatstsiyb >, according to the law <1882
dath > of the Medes <4076 Maday > and Persians <6540 Parac >,
which <1768 diy > altereth <5709 <ada> > not.



13 Then <0116 >edayin > answered <6032 <anah > they and said
<0560 >amar > before <6925 qodam > the king < 4430 melek >, That
Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >, which <1768 diy > [is] of the children
<1123 ben > of the captivity <1547 galuwth > of Judah <3061
Y@huwd >, regardeth not thee, O king <4430 melek >, nor the
decree <0633 >ecar > that thou hast signed <7560 r@sham >, but
maketh his petition <1159 ba<uw > three <8532 t@lath > times
<2166 z@man > a day <3118 yowm >.



14 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek >, when <1768 diy
> he heard <8086 sh@ma< > [these] words <4406 millah >, was sore
<7690 saggiy> > displeased <0888 b@>esh > with himself, and set
<7761 suwm > [his] heart <1079 bal > on <5922 < al > Daniel <1841
Daniye>l > to deliver <7804 sh@zab > him: and he laboured <7712
sh@dar > till <5704 <ad > the going <4606 me<al > down <4606
me<al > of the sun <8122 shemesh > to deliver < 5338 n@tsal > him.





15 Then <0116 >edayin > these <0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar >
assembled <7284 r@gash > unto the king <4430 melek >, and said
<0560 >amar > unto the king <4430 melek >, Know <3046 y@da< >, O
king <4430 melek >, that the law <1882 dath > of the Medes <4076
Maday > and Persians <6540 Parac > [is], That no decree <0633
>ecar > nor statute <7010 q@yam > which <1768 diy > the king
<4430 melek > establisheth <6966 quwm > may be changed <8133
sh@na> >.



16 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > commanded <0560
>amar >, and they brought <0858 >athah > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >,
and cast <7412 r@mah > [him] into the den <1358 gob > of lions
<0744 >aryeh >. [Now <0116 >edayin >] the king <4430 melek >
spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > unto Daniel <1841
Daniye>l >, Thy God <0426 >elahh > whom <1768 diy > thou servest
<6399 p@lach > continually <8411 t@diyra> >, he will deliver
<7804 sh@zab > thee.



17 And a stone <69> was brought <0858 >athah >, and laid <7760
suwm > upon the mouth <6433 pum > of the den <1358 gob >; and
the king <4430 melek > sealed <2857 chatham > it with his own
signet <5824 <izqa> >, and with the signet <5824 <izqa> > of his
lords <7261 rabr@ban >; that the purpose <6640 ts@buw > might
not be changed <8133 sh@na> > concerning Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >.



18. Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > went <0236
>azal > to his palace <1965 heykal >, and passed the night <0956
buwth > fasting <2908 t@vath >: neither <3809 la> > were
instruments <1761 dachavah > of musick brought <5954 < alal >
before <6925 qodam > him: and his sleep <8139 sh@nah > went
<5075 n@dad > from him.



19 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > arose <6966 quwm

and went <0236 >azal > in haste <0927 b@hal > unto the den <1358
gob > of lions <0744 >aryeh >.



20 And when he came <7127 q@reb > to the den <1358 gob >, he
cried <2200 z@<iq > with a lamentable <6088 <atsab > voice <7032
qal > unto Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >: [and] the king <4430 melek >
spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > to Daniel <1841
Daniye>l >, O Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >, servant < 5649 <abad > of
the living <2417 chay > God <0426 >elahh >, is thy God <0426
>elahh >, whom <1768 diy > thou servest <6399 p@lach >
continually <8411 t@diyra> >, able <3202 y@kel > to deliver
<7804 sh@zab > thee from the lions <0744 >aryeh >?



21 Then <0116 >edayin > said <4449 m@lal > Daniel <1841
Daniye>l > unto the king <4430 melek >, O king < 4430 melek >,
live <2414 chataph > for ever <5957 <alam >.



22 My God <0426 >elahh > hath sent <7972 sh@lach > his angel
<4398 mal>ak >, and hath shut <5463 c@gar > the lions <0744
>aryeh >' mouths <6433 pum >, that they have not hurt <2255
chabal > me: forasmuch as before <6925 qodam > him innocency
<2136 zakuw > was found <7912 sh@kach > in me; and also <0638
>aph > before <6925 qodam > thee, O king <4430 melek >, have I
done <5648 <abad > no <3809 la> > hurt <2248 chabuwlah >.



23 Then <0116 >edayin > was the king <4430 melek > exceeding
<7689 saggiy> > glad <2868 t@>eb > for him, and commanded <0560
>amar > that they should take <5267 n@caq > Daniel <1841
Daniye>l > up out of the den <1358 gob >. So Daniel <1841
Daniye>l > was taken <5267 n@caq > up out of the den <1358 gob >,
and no manner of hurt <2257 chabal > was found <7912 sh@kach >
upon him, because <1768 diy > he believed <0540 >aman > in his
God <0426 >elahh >.



24 And the king <4430 melek > commanded <0560 >amar >, and they
brought <0858 >athah > those <0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar >
which <1768 diy > had accused <7170 q@rats > Daniel <1841
Daniye>l >, and they cast <7412 r@mah > [them] into the den
<1358 gob > of lions <0744 >aryeh >, them, their children <1123
ben >, and their wives <5389 nashiyn >; and the lions <0744
>aryeh > had the mastery <6981 Qowre> > of them, and brake <1855
d@qaq > all <3606 kol > their bones <1635 gerem > in pieces or
ever <3809 la> > they came <4291 m@ta> > at the bottom <0773
>ar<iyth > of the den <1358 gob >.



25. Then <0116 >edayin > king <4430 melek > Darius <1868
Dar@yavesh > wrote <3790 k@thab > unto all <3606 kol > people
<5972 <am >, nations <0524 >ummah >, and languages <3961
lishshan >, that dwell <1753 duwr > in all <3606 kol > the earth
<0772 >ara< >; Peace <8001 sh@lam > be multiplied <7680 s@ga> >
unto you.



26 I make <7761 suwm > a decree <2942 t@<em >, That in every
<3606 kol > dominion <7985 sholtan > of my kingdom <4437 malkuw
> men tremble <2112 zuwa< > and fear <1763 d@chal > before the
God <0426 >elahh > of Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >: for he [is] the
living <2417 chay > God <0426 >elahh >, and stedfast <7011 qayam
> for ever <5957 <alam >, and his kingdom <4437 malkuw > [that]
which <1768 diy > shall not be destroyed <2255 chabal >, and his
dominion <7985 sholtan > [shall be even] unto the end < 5491
cowph >.



27 He delivereth <7804 sh@zab > and rescueth <5338 n@tsal >,
and he worketh <5648 <abad > signs <0852 >ath > and wonders
<8540 t@mahh > in heaven <8065 shamayin > and in earth <0772
>ara< >, who <1768 diy > hath delivered <7804 sh@zab > Daniel
<1841 Daniye>l > from the power <3028 yad > of the lions <0744
>aryeh >.



28 So this <1836 den > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > prospered <6744
ts@lach > in the reign <4437 malkuw > of Darius <1868 Dar@yavesh
>, and in the reign <4437 malkuw > of Cyrus <3567 Kowresh > the
Persian <6523 parzel >.



Daniel 7



1. In the first <2298 chad > year <8140 sh@nah > of Belshazzar
<1113 Belsha>tstsar > king <4430 melek > of Babylon <0895 Babel
> Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > had <2370 chaza> > a dream <2493
chelem > and visions <2376 chezev > of his head <7217 re>sh >
upon his bed <4903 mishkab >: then <0116 >edayin > he wrote
<3790 k@thab > the dream <2493 chelem >, [and] told <0560 >amar
> the sum <7217 re>sh > of the matters <4406 millah >.



2 Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560
>amar >, I saw <2370 chaza> > in my vision < 2376 chezev > by
night <3916 leyl@ya> >, and, behold <0718 >aruw >, the four
<0703 >arba< > winds <7308 ruwach > of the heaven <8065 shamayin
> strove <1519 giyach > upon the great <7227 rab > sea <3221 yam
>.



3 And four <0703 >arba< > great <7260 rabrab > beasts <2423
cheyva> > came <5559 c@liq > up from the sea <3221 yam >,
diverse <8133 sh@na> > one <1668 da> > from another <1668 da> >.



4 The first <6933 qadmay > [was] like a lion <0738 > ariy >, and
had eagle's <5403 n@shar > wings <1611 gaph >: I beheld till
<5704 <ad > the wings <1611 gaph > thereof were plucked <4804
m@rat >, and it was lifted <5191 n@tal > up from the earth <0772
>ara< >, and made stand <6966 quwm > upon the feet <7271 r@gal >
as a man <0606 >enash >, and a man's <0606 >enash > heart <3825
l@bab > was given <3052 y@hab > to it.



5 And behold <0718 >aruw > another <0317 >ochoriy > beast <2423
cheyva> >, a second <8578 tinyan >, like <1821 d@mah > to a bear
<1678 dob >, and it raised <6966 quwm > up itself on one <2298
chad > side <7859 sh@tar >, and [it had] three <8532 t@lath >
ribs <6763 tsela< > in the mouth <6433 pum > of it between <0997
beyn > the teeth <8128 shen > of it: and they said < 0560 >amar >
thus <3652 ken > unto it, Arise <6965 quwm >, devour <0399 >akal
> much <7690 saggiy> > flesh <1321 b@sar >.



6 After <0870 >athar > this <1836 den > I beheld, and lo <0718
>aruw > another <0317 >ochoriy >, like a leopard <5245 n@mar >,
which <1768 diy > had upon the back <1355 gab > of it four <0703
>arba< > wings <1611 gaph > of a fowl <5776 < owph >; the beast
<2423 cheyva> > had also four <0703 >arba< > heads <7217 re>sh >;
and dominion <7985 sholtan > was given <3052 y@hab > to it.



7 After <0870 >athar > this <1836 den > I saw < 2370 chaza> > in
the night <3916 leyl@ya> > visions <2376 chezev >, and behold
<0718 >aruw > a fourth <7244 r@biy<ay > beast <2423 cheyva> >,
dreadful <1763 d@chal > and terrible <0574 >emtaniy >, and
strong <8624 taqqiyph > exceedingly <3493 yattiyr >; and it had
great <7260 rabrab > iron <6523 parzel > teeth < 8128 shen >: it
devoured <0399 >akal > and brake <1855 d@qaq > in pieces, and
stamped <7512 r@phac > the residue <7606 sh@>ar > with the feet
<7271 r@gal > of it: and it [was] diverse <8133 sh@na> > from
all <3606 kol > the beasts <2423 cheyva> > that [were] before
<6925 qodam > it; and it had ten <6236 <asar > horns <7162 qeren
>.



8 I considered <7920 s@kal > the horns <7162 qeren >, and,
behold <0431 >aluw >, there came <5559 c@liq > up among <0997
beyn > them another <0317 >ochoriy > little <2192 z@<eyr > horn
<7162 qeren >, before <6925 qodam > whom there were three <8532
t@lath > of the first <6933 qadmay > horns <7162 qeren > plucked
<6132 <aqar > up by the roots <6132 <aqar >: and, behold <0431
>aluw >, in this <1668 da> > horn <7162 qeren > [were] eyes
<5870 <ayin > like the eyes <5870 <ayin > of man <0606 >enash >,
and a mouth <6433 pum > speaking <4449 m@lal > great <7260
rabrab > things.



9. I beheld till <5704 <ad > the thrones <3764 korce> > were
cast <7412 r@mah > down, and the Ancient <6268 < attiyq > of days
<3118 yowm > did sit <3488 y@thiyb >, whose garment <3831
l@buwsh > [was] white as snow <8517 t@lag >, and the hair <8177
s@<ar > of his head <7217 re>sh > like the pure <5343 n@qe> >
wool <6015 <amar >: his throne <3764 korce> > [was like] the
fiery <5135 nuwr > flame <7631 s@biyb >, [and] his wheels <1535
galgal > [as] burning <1815 d@laq > fire <5135 nuwr >.



10 A fiery <5135 nuwr > stream <5103 n@har > issued <5047 n@gad
> and came <5312 n@phaq > forth <5312 n@phaq > from before <6925
qodam > him: thousand <0506 >alaph > thousands < 0506 >alaph >
ministered <8120 sh@mash > unto him, and ten <7240 ribbow >
thousand <7240 ribbow > times ten <7240 ribbow > thousand <7240
ribbow > stood <6966 quwm > before <6925 qodam > him: the
judgment <1780 diyn > was set <3488 y@thiyb >, and the books
<5609 c@phar > were opened <6606 p@thach >.



11 I beheld then <0116 >edayin > because <4481 min > of the
voice <7032 qal > of the great <7260 rabrab > words <4406 millah
> which <1768 diy > the horn <7162 qeren > spake <4449 m@lal >:
I beheld [even <5705 <ad >] till <5704 <ad > the beast <2423
cheyva> > was slain <6992 q@tal >, and his body < 1655 geshem >
destroyed <7>, and given <3052 y@hab > to the burning <3346
y@qeda> > flame <0785 >esh >.



12 As concerning the rest <7606 sh@>ar > of the beasts <2423
cheyva> >, they had their dominion <7985 sholtan > taken <5709
<ada> > away <5709 <ada> >: yet their lives <2417 chay > were
prolonged for a season <2166 z@man > and time <5732 < iddan >.



13 I saw <2370 chaza> > in the night <6916 qiddah > visions
<2376 chezev >, and, behold <0718 >aruw >, [one] like the Son
<1247 bar > of man <0606 >enash > came with the clouds <6050
<anan > of heaven <8065 shamayin >, and came <4291 m@ta> > to
the Ancient <6268 <attiyq > of days <3118 yowm >, and they
brought <7127 q@reb > him near <7127 q@reb > before <6925 qodam
> him.



14 And there was given <3052 y@hab > him dominion <7985 sholtan
>, and glory <3367 y@qar >, and a kingdom <4437 malkuw >, that
all <3606 kol > people <5972 <am >, nations < 0524 >ummah >, and
languages <3961 lishshan >, should serve <6399 p@lach > him: his
dominion <7985 sholtan > [is] an everlasting <5957 < alam >
dominion <7985 sholtan >, which <1768 diy > shall not pass <5709
<ada> > away <5709 <ada> >, and his kingdom <4437 malkuw >
[that] which <1768 diy > shall not be destroyed <2255 chabal >.



15. I Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > was grieved <3735 Kara> > in my
spirit <7308 ruwach > in the midst <1459 gav > of [my] body
<5085 nidneh >, and the visions <2376 chezev > of my head <7217
re>sh > troubled <0927 b@hal > me.



16 I came <7127 q@reb > near <7127 q@reb > unto one <2298 chad
> of them that stood <6966 quwm > by, and asked <1156 b@<a> >
him the truth <3330 yatstsiyb > of all <3606 kol > this <1836
den >. So he told <0560 >amar > me, and made me know <3046 y@da<
> the interpretation <6591 p@shar > of the things < 4406 millah >.



17 These <0459 >illeyn > great <7260 rabrab > beasts <2423
cheyva> >, which <1768 diy > are four <0703 > arba< >, [are] four
<0703 >arba< > kings <4430 melek >, [which] shall arise <6965
quwm > out of the earth <0772 >ara< >.



18 But the saints <6922 qaddiysh > of the most <5946 <elyown >
High <5946 <elyown > shall take <6902 q@bal > the kingdom <4437
malkuw >, and possess <2631 chacan > the kingdom < 4437 malkuw >
for ever <5957 <alam >, even <5705 <ad > for ever <5957 <alam >
and ever <5957 <alam >.



19 Then <0116 >edayin > I would <6634 ts@ba> > know <3046 y@da<
> the truth <3321 y@tseb > of the fourth <7244 r@biy<ay > beast
<2423 cheyva> >, which <1768 diy > was diverse < 8133 sh@na> >
from all <3606 kol > the others, exceeding <3493 yattiyr >
dreadful <1763 d@chal >, whose <1768 diy > teeth < 8128 shen >
[were of] iron <6523 parzel >, and his nails <2953 t@phar > [of]
brass <5174 n@chash >; [which] devoured <0399 >akal >, brake
<1855 d@qaq > in pieces, and stamped <7512 r@phac > the residue
<7606 sh@>ar > with his feet <7271 r@gal >;



20 And of the ten <6236 <asar > horns <7162 qeren > that [were]
in his head <7217 re>sh >, and [of] the other <0317 >ochoriy >
which <1768 diy > came <5559 c@liq > up, and before whom <4479
man > three <8532 t@lath > fell <5308 n@phal >; even [of] that
horn <7162 qeren > that had eyes <5870 <ayin >, and a mouth
<6433 pum > that spake <4449 m@lal > very <7260 rabrab > great
<7260 rabrab > things, whose look <2376 chezev > [was] more
<5750 <owd > stout <7229 rab > than <4481 min > his fellows
<2273 chabrah >.



21 I beheld, and the same <1797 dikken > horn <7162 qeren >
made <5648 <abad > war <7129 q@rab > with the saints <6922
qaddiysh >, and prevailed <3202 y@kel > against them;



22 Until <5704 <ad > the Ancient <6268 <attiyq > of days <3118
yowm > came <0858 >athah >, and judgment <1780 diyn > was given
<3052 y@hab > to the saints <6922 qaddiysh > of the most <5946
<elyown > High <5946 <elyown >; and the time < 2166 z@man > came
<4291 m@ta> > that the saints <6922 qaddiysh > possessed <2631
chacan > the kingdom <4437 malkuw >.



23 Thus <3652 ken > he said <0560 >amar >, The fourth <7244
r@biy<ay > beast <2423 cheyva> > shall be the fourth <7244
r@biy<ay > kingdom <4437 malkuw > upon earth <0772 >ara< >,
which <1768 diy > shall be diverse <8133 sh@na> > from all <3606

the whole <3606 kol > earth <0772 >ara< >, and shall tread <1759
duwsh > it down, and break <1854 daqaq > it in pieces.



24 And the ten <6236 <asar > horns <7162 qeren > out of this
kingdom <4437 malkuw > [are] ten <6236 <asar > kings <4430 melek

shall rise <6966 quwm > after <0311 >achar > them; and he shall
be diverse <8133 sh@na> > from the first <6933 qadmay >, and he
shall subdue <8214 sh@phal > three <8532 t@lath > kings <4430
melek >.





25 And he shall speak <4449 m@lal > [great] words <4406 millah

of the most <5946 <elyown > High <5946 <elyown > , and think
<5452 c@bar > to change <8133 sh@na> > times < 2166 z@man > and
laws <1882 dath >: and they shall be given <3052 y@hab > into
his hand <3028 yad > until <5704 <ad > a time < 5732 <iddan > and
times <5732 <iddan > and the dividing <6387 p@lag > of time
<5732 <iddan >.



26 But the judgment <1780 diyn > shall sit <3488 y@thiyb >, and
they shall take <5709 <ada> > away <5709 < ada> > his dominion
<7985 sholtan >, to consume <8046 sh@mad > and to destroy <7>
[it] unto the end <5491 cowph >.



27 And the kingdom <4437 malkuw > and dominion <7985 sholtan >,
and the greatness <7238 r@buw > of the kingdom <4437 malkuw >
under <8460 t@chowth > the whole <3606 kol > heaven <8065

obey <8086 sh@ma< > him.



28 Hitherto [is] the end <5491 cowph > of the matter < 4406
millah >. As for me Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >, my cogitations
<7476 ra<yown > much <7690 saggiy> > troubled <0927 b@hal > me,
and my countenance <2122 ziyv > changed <8133 sh@na> > in me:
but I kept <5202 n@tar > the matter <4406 millah > in my heart
<3821 leb >.



Daniel 8



1. In the third <7969 shalowsh > year <8141 shaneh > of the
reign <4438 malkuwth > of king <4428 melek > Belshazzar <1113
Belsha>tstsar > a vision <2377 chazown > appeared < 7200 ra>ah >
unto me, [even unto] me Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, after <0310
>achar > that which appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto me at the first
<8462 t@chillah >.



2 And I saw <7200 ra>ah > in a vision <2377 chazown >; and it
came <1961 hayah > to pass, when I saw <7200 ra>ah >, that I
[was] at Shushan <7800 Shuwshan > [in] the palace <1002 biyrah >,
which <0834 >aher > [is] in the province <4082 m@diynah > of
Elam <5867 <Eylam >; and I saw <7200 ra>ah > in a vision <2377
chazown >, and I was by the river <0180 >uwbal > of Ulai <0195
>Uwlay >.



3 Then I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine eyes <5869 < ayin >, and
saw <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, there stood <5975
<amad > before <6440 paniym > the river <0180 > uwbal > a ram
<0352 >ayil > which had [two] horns <7161 qeren >: and the [two]
horns <7161 qeren > [were] high <1364 gaboahh >; but one <0259
>echad > [was] higher <1364 gaboahh > than <4480 min > the other
<8145 sheniy >, and the higher <1364 gaboahh > came <5927 <alah
> up last <0314 >acharown >.



4 I saw <7200 ra>ah > the ram <0352 >ayil > pushing <5055
nagach > westward <3220 yam >, and northward <6828 tsaphown >,
and southward <5045 negeb >; so that no <3808 lo> > beasts <2416
chay > might stand <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > him,
neither <0369 >ayin > [was there any] that could deliver <5337
natsal > out of his hand <3027 yad >; but he did < 6213 <asah >
according to his will <7522 ratsown >, and became <1431 gadal >
great <1431 gadal >.



5 And as I was considering <0995 biyn >, behold <2009 hinneh >,
an he goat <5795 <ez > came <0935 bow> > from the west <4628
ma<arab > on the face <6440 paniym > of the whole < 3605 kol >
earth <0776 >erets >, and touched <5060 naga< > not the ground
<0776 >erets >: and the goat <6842 tsaphiyr > [had] a notable
<2380 chazuwth > horn <7161 qeren > between <0996 beyn > his
eyes <5869 <ayin >.



6 And he came <0935 bow> > to the ram <0352 >ayil > that had
[two] horns <7161 qeren >, which <0834 >aher > I had seen <7200
ra>ah > standing <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > the river
<0180 >uwbal >, and ran <7323 ruwts > unto him in the fury <2534
chemah > of his power <3581 koach >.



7 And I saw <7200 ra>ah > him come <5060 naga< > close <0681
>etsel > unto the ram <0352 >ayil >, and he was moved with
choler <4843 marar > against <0413 >el > him, and smote <5221
nakah > the ram <0352 >ayil >, and brake <7665 shabar > his two
<8147 sh@nayim > horns <7161 qeren >: and there was no <3808 lo>
> power <3581 koach > in the ram <0352 >ayil > to stand <5975
<amad > before <6440 paniym > him, but he cast < 7993 shalak >
him down to the ground <0776 >erets >, and stamped < 7429 ramac >
upon him: and there was none <3808 lo> > that could deliver
<5337 natsal > the ram <0352 >ayil > out of his hand <3027 yad >.



8 Therefore the he goat <6842 tsaphiyr > waxed very great <1431
gadal >: and when he was strong <6105 <atsam >, the great <1419
gadowl > horn <7161 qeren > was broken <7665 shabar >; and for
it came <5927 <alah > up four <0702 >arba< > notable <2380
chazuwth > ones toward the four <0702 >arba< > winds <7307
ruwach > of heaven <8064 shamayim >.



9 And out of one <0259 >echad > of them came <3318 yatsa> >
forth <3318 yatsa> > a little <4704 mitsts@<iyrah > horn <7161
qeren >, which waxed exceeding <3499 yether > great < 1431 gadal
>, toward <0413 >el > the south <5045 negeb >, and toward <0413
>el > the east <4217 mizrach >, and toward <0413 >el > the
pleasant <6643 ts@biy > [land].



10 And it waxed great <1431 gadal >, [even] to the host <6635
tsaba> > of heaven <8064 shamayim >; and it cast < 5307 naphal >
down <5307 naphal > [some] of the host <6635 tsaba> > and of the
stars <3556 kowkab > to the ground <0776 >erets >, and stamped
<7429 ramac > upon them.



11 Yea, he magnified <1431 gadal > [himself] even to the prince
<8269 sar > of the host <6635 tsaba> >, and by him the daily
<8548 tamiyd > [sacrifice] was taken <7311 ruwm > away <7311
ruwm >, and the place <4349 makown > of his sanctuary <4720
miqdash > was cast <7993 shalak > down.



12 And an host <6635 tsaba> > was given <5414 nathan > [him]
against <5921 <al > the daily <8548 tamiyd > [sacrifice] by
reason of transgression <6588 pesha< >, and it cast < 7993 shalak
> down the truth <0571 >emeth > to the ground < 0776 >erets >;
and it practised <6213 <asah >, and prospered <6743 tsalach >.



13 Then I heard <8085 shama< > one <0259 >echad > saint <6918
qadowsh > speaking <1696 dabar >, and another <0259 >echad >
saint <6918 qadowsh > said <0559 >amar > unto that certain <6422
palmowniy > [saint] which spake <1696 dabar >, How < 5704 <ad >
long <5704 <ad > [shall be] the vision <2377 chazown >
[concerning] the daily <8548 tamiyd > [sacrifice], and the
transgression <6588 pesha< > of desolation <8074 shamem >, to
give <5414 nathan > both the sanctuary <6944 qodesh > and the
host <6635 tsaba> > to be trodden <4823 mirmac > under foot
<4823 mirmac >?



14 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Unto two thousand <0505
>eleph > and three <7969 shalowsh > hundred <3967 me>ah > days;
then shall the sanctuary <6944 qodesh > be cleansed < 6663 tsadaq
>.



15. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when I, [even] I Daniel
<1840 Daniye>l >, had seen <7200 ra>ah > the vision <2377
chazown >, and sought <1245 baqash > for the meaning < 0998
biynah >, then, behold <2009 hinneh >, there stood < 5975 <amad >
before <5048 neged > me as the appearance <4758 mar> eh > of a
man <1397 geber >.



16 And I heard <8085 shama< > a man's <0120 >adam > voice <6963
qowl > between <0996 beyn > [the banks of] Ulai <0195 >Uwlay >,
which called <7121 qara> >, and said <0559 >amar >, Gabriel
<1403 Gabriy>el >, make this <1975 hallaz > [man] to understand
<0995 biyn > the vision <4758 mar>eh >.



17 So he came <0935 bow> > near <0681 >etsel > where I stood
<5977 <omed >: and when he came <0935 bow> >, I was afraid <1204
ba<ath >, and fell <5307 naphal > upon my face < 6440 paniym >:
but he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Understand <0995 biyn >, O
son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >: for at the time <6256 <eth
> of the end <7093 qets > [shall be] the vision <4758 mar>eh >.



18 Now as he was speaking <1696 dabar > with me, I was in a
deep <7290 radam > sleep <7290 radam > on <5921 <al > my face
<6440 paniym > toward the ground <0776 >erets >: but he touched
<5060 naga< > me, and set <5975 <amad > me upright <5977 <omed >.



19 And he said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2005 hen >, I will make
thee know <3045 yada< > what shall be in the last < 0319
>achariyth > end of the indignation <2195 za<am >: for at the
time appointed <4150 mow<ed > the end <7093 qets > [shall be].



20 The ram <0352 >ayil > which <0834 >aher > thou sawest <7200
ra>ah > having <1167 ba<al > [two] horns <7161 qeren > [are] the
kings <4428 melek > of Media <4074 Maday > and Persia <6539
Parac >.



21 And the rough <8163 sa<iyr > goat <6842 tsaphiyr > [is] the
king <4428 melek > of Grecia <3120 Yavan >: and the great <1419
gadowl > horn <7161 qeren > that [is] between <0996 beyn > his
eyes <5869 <ayin > [is] the first <7223 ri>shown > king <4428
melek >.



22 Now that being broken <7665 shabar >, whereas four < 0702
>arba< > stood <5975 <amad > up for it, four <0702 >arba< >
kingdoms <4438 malkuwth > shall stand <5975 <amad > up out of
the nation <1471 gowy >, but not in his power <3581 koach >.



23 And in the latter <0319 >achariyth > time of their kingdom
<4438 malkuwth >, when the transgressors <6586 pasha< > are come
to the full <8552 tamam >, a king <4428 melek > of fierce <5794
<az > countenance <6440 paniym >, and understanding <0995 biyn >
dark <2420 chiydah > sentences <2420 chiydah >, shall stand
<5975 <amad > up.



24 And his power <3581 koach > shall be mighty <6105 <atsam >,
but not by his own power <3581 koach >: and he shall destroy
<7843 shachath > wonderfully <6381 pala> >, and shall prosper
<6743 tsalach >, and practise <6213 <asah >, and shall destroy
<7843 shachath > the mighty <6099 <atsuwm > and the holy <6918
qadowsh > people <5971 <am >.



25 And through <5921 <al > his policy <7922 sekel > also he
shall cause craft <4820 mirmah > to prosper <6743 tsalach > in
his hand <3027 yad >; and he shall magnify <1431 gadal >
[himself] in his heart <3824 lebab >, and by peace <7962 shalvah
> shall destroy <7843 shachath > many <7227 rab >: he shall also
stand <5975 <amad > up against <5921 <al > the Prince <8269 sar
> of princes <8269 sar >; but he shall be broken < 7665 shabar >
without <0657 >ephec > hand <3027 yad >.



26 And the vision <4758 mar>eh > of the evening < 6153 <ereb >
and the morning <1242 boqer > which <0834 >aher > was told <0560
>amar > [is] true <0571 >emeth >: wherefore shut <5640 catham >
thou up the vision <2377 chazown >; for it [shall be] for many
<7227 rab > days <3117 yowm >.



27 And I Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > fainted <1961 hayah >, and was
sick <2470 chalah > [certain] days <3117 yowm >; afterward I
rose <6965 quwm > up, and did <6213 <asah > the king's <4428
melek > business <4399 m@la>kah >; and I was astonished <8074
shamem > at <5921 <al > the vision <4758 mar>eh >, but none
<0369 >ayin > understood <0995 biyn > [it].



Daniel 9



1. In the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > of Darius
<1867 Dar<yavesh > the son <1121 ben > of Ahasuerus <0325
>Achashverowsh >, of the seed <2233 zera< > of the Medes <4074
Maday >, which <0834 >aher > was made king <4427 malak > over
<5921 <al > the realm <4438 malkuwth > of the Chaldeans <3778
Kasdiy >;



2 In the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > of his reign
<4427 malak > I Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > understood <0995 biyn >
by books <5612 cepher > the number <4557 micpar > of the years
<8141 shaneh >, whereof <0834 >aher > the word < 1697 dabar > of
the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > to Jeremiah <3414
Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> >, that he would accomplish
<4390 male> > seventy <7657 shib<iym. > years <8141 shaneh > in
the desolations <2723 chorbah > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim

3 And I set <5414 nathan > my face <6440 paniym > unto the Lord
<0136 >Adonay > God <0430 >elohiym >, to seek <1245 baqash > by
prayer <8605 t@phillah > and supplications <8469 tachanuwn >,
with fasting <6685 tsowm >, and sackcloth <8242 saq >, and ashes
<0665 >epher >:



4. And I prayed <6419 palal > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > my
God <0430 >elohiym >, and made my confession <3034 yadah >, and
said <0559 >amar >, O Lord <0136 >Adonay >, the great <1419
gadowl > and dreadful <3372 yare> > God <0410 > el >, keeping
<8104 shamar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth > and mercy <2617
checed > to them that love <0157 >ahab > him, and to them that
keep <8104 shamar > his commandments <4687 mitsvah >;



5 We have sinned <2398 chata> >, and have committed < 5753 <avah
> iniquity <5753 <avah >, and have done wickedly < 7561 rasha< >,
and have rebelled <4775 marad >, even by departing <5493 cuwr >
from thy precepts <4687 mitsvah > and from thy judgments <4941
mishpat >:



6 Neither <3808 lo> > have we hearkened <8085 shama< > unto thy
servants <5650 <ebed > the prophets <5030 nabiy> >, which <0834
>aher > spake <1696 dabar > in thy name <8034 shem > to our
kings <4428 melek >, our princes <8269 sar >, and our fathers
<1>, and to all <3605 kol > the people <5971 < am > of the land
<0776 >erets >.



7 O Lord <0136 >Adonay >, righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >
[belongeth] unto thee, but unto us confusion <1322 bosheth > of
faces <6440 paniym >, as at this <2088 zeh > day < 3117 yowm >;
to the men <0376 >iysh > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, and to the
inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >,
and unto all <3605 kol > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, [that are]
near <7138 qarowb >, and [that are] far <7350 rachowq > off,
through all <3605 kol > the countries <0776 >erets > whither
thou hast driven <5080 nadach > them, because of their trespass
<4604 ma<al > that they have trespassed <4603 ma< al > against
thee.



8 O Lord <0136 >Adonay >, to us [belongeth] confusion <1322
bosheth > of face <6440 paniym >, to our kings <4428 melek >, to
our princes <8269 sar >, and to our fathers <1>, because <0834
>aher > we have sinned <2398 chata> > against thee.



9 To the Lord <0136 >Adonay > our God <0430 > elohiym > [belong]
mercies <7356 racham > and forgivenesses <5547 c@liychah >,
though <3588 kiy > we have rebelled <4775 marad > against him;



10 Neither <3808 lo> > have we obeyed <8085 shama< > the voice
<6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God < 0430 >elohiym

>aher > he set <5414 nathan > before <6440 paniym > us by his
servants <5650 <ebed > the prophets <5030 nabiy> >.





11 Yea, all <3605 kol > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > have
transgressed <5674 <abar > thy law <8451 towrah >, even by
departing <5493 cuwr >, that they might not obey <8085 shama< >
thy voice <6963 qowl >; therefore the curse <0423 > alah > is
poured <5413 nathak > upon us, and the oath <7621 sh@buw<ah >
that [is] written <3789 kathab > in the law <8451 towrah > of
Moses <4872 Mosheh > the servant <5650 <ebed > of God <0430
>elohiym >, because <3588 kiy > we have sinned < 2398 chata> >
against him.



12 And he hath confirmed <6965 quwm > his words <1697 dabar >,
which <0834 >aher > he spake <1696 dabar > against <5921 <al >
us, and against <5921 <al > our judges <8199 shaphat > that
judged <8199 shaphat > us, by bringing <0935 bow> > upon us a
great <1419 gadowl > evil <7451 ra< >: for under <8478 tachath >
the whole <3605 kol > heaven <8064 shamayim > hath not been done
as hath been done <6213 <asah > upon Jerusalem <3389
Y@ruwshalaim >.



13 As [it is] written <3789 kathab > in the law <8451 towrah >
of Moses <4872 Mosheh >, all <3605 kol > this < 2063 zo>th > evil
<7451 ra< > is come <0935 bow> > upon us: yet made we not our
prayer <2470 chalah > before the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God
<0430 >elohiym >, that we might turn <7725 shuwb > from our
iniquities <5771 <avon >, and understand <7919 sakal > thy truth
<0571 >emeth >.



14 Therefore hath the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > watched < 8245 shaqad
> upon the evil <7451 ra< >, and brought <0935 bow> > it upon us:
for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym > [is]
righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > in all <3605 kol > his works <4639
ma<aseh > which <0834 >aher > he doeth <6213 <asah >: for we
obeyed <8085 shama< > not his voice <6963 qowl >.



15 And now <6258 <attah >, O Lord <0136 >Adonay > our God <0430
>elohiym >, that hast brought <3318 yatsa> > thy people <5971
<am > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the land < 0776 >erets > of
Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > with a mighty <2389 chazaq > hand <3027
yad >, and hast gotten <6213 <asah > thee renown < 8034 shem >,
as at this day <3117 yowm >; we have sinned <2398 chata> >, we
have done wickedly <7561 rasha< >.



16 O Lord <0136 >Adonay >, according to all <3605 kol > thy
righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >, I beseech <4994 na> > thee, let
thine anger <0639 >aph > and thy fury <2534 chemah > be turned
<7725 shuwb > away from thy city <5892 <iyr > Jerusalem <3389
Y@ruwshalaim >, thy holy <6944 qodesh > mountain < 2022 har >:
because <3588 kiy > for our sins <2399 chet> >, and for the
iniquities <5771 <avon > of our fathers <1>, Jerusalem <3389
Y@ruwshalaim > and thy people <5971 <am > [are become] a
reproach <2781 cherpah > to all <3605 kol > [that are] about
<5439 cabiyb > us.



17 Now <6258 <attah > therefore, O our God <0430 > elohiym >,
hear <8085 shama< > the prayer <8605 t@phillah > of thy servant
<5650 <ebed >, and his supplications <8469 tachanuwn >, and
cause thy face <6440 paniym > to shine <0215 >owr > upon thy
sanctuary <4720 miqdash > that is desolate <8074 shamem >, for
the Lord's <0136 >Adonay > sake <4616 ma<an >.



18 O my God <0430 >elohiym >, incline <5186 natah > thine ear
<0241 >ozen >, and hear <8085 shama< >; open <6491 paqach >
thine eyes <5869 <ayin >, and behold <7200 ra>ah > our
desolations <8074 shamem >, and the city <5892 <iyr > which
<0834 >aher > is called <7121 qara> > by thy name <8034 shem >:
for we do not present <5307 naphal > our supplications < 8469
tachanuwn > before <6440 paniym > thee for our righteousnesses
<6666 ts@daqah >, but for thy great <7227 rab > mercies <7356
racham >.



19 O Lord <0136 >Adonay >, hear <8085 shama< >; O Lord <0136
>Adonay >, forgive <5545 calach >; O Lord <0136 >Adonay >,
hearken <7181 qashab > and do <6213 <asah >; defer <0309 >achar

called <7121 qara> > by thy name <8034 shem >.



20. And whiles <5750 <owd > I [was] speaking <1696 dabar >, and
praying <6419 palal >, and confessing <3034 yadah > my sin <2403
chatta>ah > and the sin <2403 chatta>ah > of my people <5971 <am

supplication <8467 t@chinnah > before <6440 paniym > the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah > my God <0430 >elohiym > for the holy <6944
qodesh > mountain <2022 har > of my God <0430 > elohiym >;



21 Yea, whiles I [was] speaking <1696 dabar > in prayer <8605
t@phillah >, even the man <0376 >iysh > Gabriel < 1403 Gabriy>el

<2377 chazown > at the beginning <8462 t@chillah >, being caused
to fly <3286 ya<aph > swiftly <3288 y@aph >, touched <5060 naga<

oblation <4503 minchah >.



22 And he informed <0995 biyn > [me], and talked <1696 dabar >
with me, and said <0559 >amar >, O Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, I am
now <6258 <attah > come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > to
give thee skill <7919 sakal > and understanding <0998 biynah >.



23 At the beginning <8462 t@chillah > of thy supplications
<8469 tachanuwn > the commandment <1697 dabar > came <3318
yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >, and I am come < 0935 bow> > to
shew <5046 nagad > [thee]; for thou [art] greatly beloved <2530

dabar >, and consider <0995 biyn > the vision <2377 chazown >.



24 Seventy <7657 shib<iym. > weeks <7620 shabuwa< > are
determined <2852 chathak > upon thy people <5971 <am > and upon
thy holy <6944 qodesh > city <5892 <iyr >, to finish <3607 kala>

<3722 kaphar > for iniquity <5771 <avon >, and to bring <0935

prophecy <5030 nabiy> >, and to anoint <4886 mashach > the most
<6944 qodesh > Holy <6944 qodesh >.





25 Know <3045 yada< > therefore and understand <7919 sakal >,
[that] from the going <4161 mowtsa> > forth <4161 mowtsa> > of
the commandment <1697 dabar > to restore <7725 shuwb > and to
build <1129 banah > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > unto the

26 And after <0310 >achar > threescore <8346 shishshiym > and
two <8147 sh@nayim > weeks <7620 shabuwa< > shall Messiah <4899
mashiyach > be cut <3772 karath > off, but not for himself: and
the people <5971 <am > of the prince <5057 nagiyd > that shall
come <0935 bow> > shall destroy <7843 shachath > the city <5892

27 And he shall confirm <1396 gabar > the covenant < 1285

<7620 shabuwa< >: and in the midst <2677 chetsiy > of the week
<7620 shabuwa< > he shall cause the sacrifice <2077 zebach > and
the oblation <4503 minchah > to cease <7673 shabath >, and for
the overspreading <3671 kanaph > of abominations <8251 shiqquwts

Daniel 10



1. In the third <7969 shalowsh > year <8141 shaneh > of Cyrus
<3566 Kowresh > king <4428 melek > of Persia <6539 Parac > a
thing <1697 dabar > was revealed <1540 galah > unto Daniel <1840
Daniye>l >, whose <0834 >aher > name <8034 shem > was called
<7121 qara> > Belteshazzar <1095 Belt@sha>tstsar >; and the
thing <1697 dabar > [was] true <0571 >emeth >, but the time
appointed <6635 tsaba> > [was] long <1419 gadowl >: and he
understood <0995 biyn > the thing <1697 dabar >, and had
understanding <0998 biynah > of the vision <4758 mar> eh >.



2 In those <1992 hem > days <3117 yowm > I Daniel <1840
Daniye>l > was mourning <56> three <7969 shalowsh > full <3117
yowm > weeks <7620 shabuwa< >.



3 I ate <0398 >akal > no <3808 lo> > pleasant <2530 chamad >
bread <3899 lechem >, neither <3808 lo> > came < 0935 bow> >
flesh <1320 basar > nor <3808 lo> > wine <3196 yayin > in my
mouth <6310 peh >, neither <3808 lo> > did I anoint <5480 cuwk >
myself at all, till <5704 <ad > three <7969 shalowsh > whole
<3117 yowm > weeks <7620 shabuwa< > were fulfilled <4390 male> >.



4 And in the four <0702 >arba< > and twentieth < 6242 <esriym >
day <3117 yowm > of the first <7223 ri>shown > month <2320
chodesh >, as I was by the side <3027 yad > of the great <1419
gadowl > river <5104 nahar >, which <1931 huw> > [is] Hiddekel
<2313 Chiddeqel >;



5 Then I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine eyes <5869 < ayin >, and
looked <7200 ra>ah >, and behold <2009 hinneh > a certain <0259
>echad > man <0376 >iysh > clothed <3847 labash > in linen <0906
bad >, whose loins <4975 mothen > [were] girded <2296 chagar >
with fine gold <3800 kethem > of Uphaz <0210 >Uwphaz >:



6 His body <1472 g@viyah > also [was] like the beryl < 8658
tarshiysh >, and his face <6440 paniym > as the appearance <4758
mar>eh > of lightning <1300 baraq >, and his eyes < 5869 <ayin >
as lamps <3940 lappiyd > of fire <0784 >esh >, and his arms
<2220 z@rowa< > and his feet <4772 marg@lah > like in colour
<5869 <ayin > to polished <7044 qalal > brass < 5178 n@chosheth >,
and the voice <6963 qowl > of his words <1697 dabar > like the
voice <6963 qowl > of a multitude <1995 hamown >.



7 And I Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > alone <0905 bad > saw <7200
ra>ah > the vision <4759 mar>ah >: for the men < 0582 >enowsh >
that were with me saw <7200 ra>ah > not the vision < 4759 mar>ah
>; but a great <1419 gadowl > quaking <2731 charadah > fell
<5307 naphal > upon them, so that they fled <1272 barach > to
hide <2244> themselves.



8 Therefore I was left <7604 sha>ar > alone <0905 bad >, and
saw <7200 ra>ah > this great <1419 gadowl > vision <4759 mar>ah
>, and there remained <7604 sha>ar > no <3808 lo> > strength
<3581 koach > in me: for my comeliness <1935 howd > was turned
<2015 haphak > in me into corruption <4889 mashchiyth >, and I
retained <6113 <atsar > no <3808 lo> > strength <3581 koach >.



9 Yet heard <8085 shama< > I the voice <6963 qowl > of his
words <1697 dabar >: and when I heard <8085 shama< > the voice
<6963 qowl > of his words <1697 dabar >, then was I in a deep
<7290 radam > sleep <7290 radam > on my face <6440 paniym >, and
my face <6440 paniym > toward the ground <0776 >erets >.





10. And, behold <2009 hinneh >, an hand <3027 yad > touched
<5060 naga< > me, which set <5128 nuwa< > me upon my knees <1290
berek > and [upon] the palms <3709 kaph > of my hands <3027 yad
>.



11 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, O Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >,
a man <0376 >iysh > greatly beloved <2530 chamad > , understand
<0995 biyn > the words <1697 dabar > that I speak < 1696 dabar >
unto thee, and stand <5975 <amad > upright <5977 < omed >: for
unto thee am I now <6258 <attah > sent <7971 shalach >. And when
he had spoken <1696 dabar > this <2088 zeh > word < 1697 dabar >
unto me, I stood <5975 <amad > trembling <7460>.



12 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Fear <3372 yare> > not,
Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >: for from the first <7223 ri>shown > day
<3117 yowm > that thou didst set <5414 nathan > thine heart
<3820 leb > to understand <0995 biyn >, and to chasten <6031
<anah > thyself before <6440 paniym > thy God < 0430 >elohiym >,
thy words <1697 dabar > were heard <8085 shama< >, and I am come
<0935 bow> > for thy words <1697 dabar >.



13 But the prince <8269 sar > of the kingdom <4438 malkuwth >
of Persia <6539 Parac > withstood <5975 <amad > me one <0259
>echad > and twenty <6242 <esriym > days <3117 yowm >: but, lo
<2009 hinneh >, Michael <4317 Miyka>el >, one < 0259 >echad > of
the chief <7223 ri>shown > princes <8269 sar >, came <0935 bow>
> to help <5826 <azar > me; and I remained <3498 yathar > there
<8033 sham > with the kings <4428 melek > of Persia <6539 Parac
>.



14 Now I am come <0935 bow> > to make thee understand <0995
biyn > what shall befall <7136 qarah > thy people < 5971 <am > in
the latter <0319 >achariyth > days <3117 yowm >: for yet <5750
<owd > the vision <2377 chazown > [is] for [many] days <3117
yowm >.



15 And when he had spoken <1696 dabar > such <0428 > el-leh >
words <1697 dabar > unto me, I set <5414 nathan > my face <6440
paniym > toward the ground <0776 >erets >, and I became <0481
>alam > dumb <0481 >alam >.



16 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, [one] like the similitude <1823
d@muwth > of the sons <1121 ben > of men <0120 > adam > touched
<5060 naga< > my lips <8193 saphah >: then I opened <6605
pathach > my mouth <6310 peh >, and spake <1696 dabar >, and
said <0559 >amar > unto him that stood <5975 <amad > before
<6440 paniym > me, O my lord <0113 >adown >, by the vision <4758
mar>eh > my sorrows <6735 tsiyr > are turned <2015 haphak > upon
me, and I have retained <6113 <atsar > no <3808 lo> > strength
<3581 koach >.



17 For how <1963 heyk > can <3201 yakol > the servant <5650
<ebed > of this <2088 zeh > my lord <0113 > adown > talk <1696
dabar > with this <2088 zeh > my lord <0113 >adown >? for as for
me, straightway <6258 <attah > there remained <5975 <amad > no
<3808 lo> > strength <3581 koach > in me, neither <3808 lo> > is
there breath <5397 n@shamah > left <7604 sha>ar > in me.



18 Then there came again <3284 ya<anah > and touched <5060
naga< > me [one] like the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of a man
<0120 >adam >, and he strengthened <2388 chazaq > me,



19 And said <0559 >amar >, O man <0376 >iysh > greatly beloved
<2530 chamad >, fear <3372 yare> > not: peace < 7965 shalowm >
[be] unto thee, be strong <2388 chazaq >, yea, be strong <2388
chazaq >. And when he had spoken <1696 dabar > unto me, I was
strengthened <2388 chazaq >, and said <0559 >amar > , Let my lord
<0113 >adown > speak <1696 dabar >; for thou hast strengthened
<2388 chazaq > me.



20 Then said <0559 >amar > he, Knowest <3045 yada< > thou
wherefore <4100 mah > I come <0935 bow> > unto thee? and now
<6258 <attah > will I return <7725 shuwb > to fight <3898 lacham
> with the prince <8269 sar > of Persia <6539 Parac >: and when
I am gone <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >, lo <2009 hinneh >,
the prince <8269 sar > of Grecia <3120 Yavan > shall come <0935
bow> >.



21 But I will shew <5046 nagad > thee that which is noted <7559
rasham > in the scripture <3791 kathab > of truth < 0571 >emeth >:
and [there is] none <0369 >ayin > that holdeth <2388 chazaq >
with me in these <0428 >el-leh > things, but Michael < 4317
Miyka>el > your prince <8269 sar >.



Daniel 11



1. Also I in the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > of
Darius <1867 Dar<yavesh > the Mede <4075 Maday >, [even] I,
stood <5975 <amad > to confirm <2388 chazaq > and to strengthen
<4581 ma<owz > him.



2 And now <6258 <attah > will I shew <5046 nagad > thee the
truth <0571 >emeth >. Behold <2009 hinneh >, there shall stand
<5975 <amad > up yet <5750 <owd > three < 7969 shalowsh > kings
<4428 melek > in Persia <6539 Parac >; and the fourth <7243
r@biy<iy > shall be far <1419 gadowl > richer < 6238 <ashar >
than [they] all <3605 kol >: and by his strength <2394 chozqah >
through his riches <6239 <osher > he shall stir <5782 <uwr > up
all <3605 kol > against the realm <4438 malkuwth > of Grecia
<3120 Yavan >.



3 And a mighty <1368 gibbowr > king <4428 melek > shall stand
<5975 <amad > up, that shall rule <4910 mashal > with great
<7227 rab > dominion <4474 mimshal >, and do <6213 <asah >
according to his will <7522 ratsown >.



4 And when he shall stand <5975 <amad > up, his kingdom <4438
malkuwth > shall be broken <7665 shabar >, and shall be divided
<2673 chatsah > toward the four <0702 >arba< > winds <7307
ruwach > of heaven <8064 shamayim >; and not to his posterity
<0319 >achariyth >, nor <3808 lo> > according to his dominion
<4915 moshel > which <0834 >aher > he ruled < 4910 mashal >: for
his kingdom <4438 malkuwth > shall be plucked <5428 nathash > up,
even for others <0312 >acher > beside <0905 bad > those <0428
>el-leh >.



5. And the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > shall
be strong <2388 chazaq >, and [one] of his princes <8269 sar >;
and he shall be strong <2388 chazaq > above <5921 <al > him, and
have dominion <4910 mashal >; his dominion <4474 mimshal >
[shall be] a great <7227 rab > dominion <4474 mimshal >.



6 And in the end <7093 qets > of years <8141 shaneh > they
shall join <2266 chabar > themselves together; for the king's
<4428 melek > daughter <1323 bath > of the south < 5045 negeb >
shall come <0935 bow> > to the king <4428 melek > of the north
<6828 tsaphown > to make <6213 <asah > an agreement <4339
meyshar >: but she shall not retain <6113 <atsar > the power
<3581 koach > of the arm <2220 z@rowa< >; neither <3808 lo> >
shall he stand <5975 <amad >, nor his arm <2220 z@rowa< >: but
she shall be given <5414 nathan > up, and they that brought
<0935 bow> > her, and he that begat <3205 yalad > her, and he
that strengthened <2388 chazaq > her in [these] times < 6256 <eth
>.



7 But out of a branch <5342 netser > of her roots <8328 sheresh
> shall [one] stand <5975 <amad > up in his estate <3653 ken >,
which shall come <0935 bow> > with an army <2428 chayil >, and
shall enter <0935 bow> > into the fortress <4581 ma<owz > of the
king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown >, and shall deal
<6213 <asah > against them, and shall prevail <2388 chazaq >:



8 And shall also <1571 gam > carry <0935 bow> > captives <7628
sh@biy > into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > their gods < 0430 >elohiym
>, with their princes <5257 n@ciyk >, [and] with their precious
<2532 chemdah > vessels <3627 k@liy > of silver < 3701 keceph >
and of gold <2091 zahab >; and he shall continue <5975 <amad >
[more] years <8141 shaneh > than the king <4428 melek > of the
north <6828 tsaphown >.



9 So the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > shall
come <0935 bow> > into [his] kingdom <4438 malkuwth >, and shall
return <7725 shuwb > into <0413 >el > his own land <0127 >adamah

10 But his sons <1121 ben > shall be stirred <1624 garah > up,
and shall assemble <0622 >acaph > a multitude <1995 hamown > of
great <7227 rab > forces <2428 chayil >: and [one] shall
certainly come <0935 bow> >, and overflow <7857 shataph >, and
pass <5674 <abar > through: then shall he return < 7725 shuwb >,
and be stirred <1624 garah > up, [even] to his fortress < 4581
ma<owz >.



11 And the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > shall
be moved with choler <4843 marar >, and shall come <3318 yatsa>
> forth <3318 yatsa> > and fight <3898 lacham > with him, [even]
with the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown >: and
he shall set <5975 <amad > forth <5975 <amad > a great <7227 rab
> multitude <1995 hamown >; but the multitude <1995 hamown >
shall be given <5414 nathan > into his hand <3027 yad >.



12 [And] when he hath taken <5375 nasa> > away the multitude
<1995 hamown >, his heart <3824 lebab > shall be lifted <7311
ruwm > up; and he shall cast <5307 naphal > down < 5307 naphal >
[many] ten <7239 ribbow > thousands <7239 ribbow >: but he shall
not be strengthened <5810 <azaz > [by it].



13 For the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown >
shall return <7725 shuwb >, and shall set <5975 <amad > forth a
multitude <1995 hamown > greater <7227 rab > than < 4480 min >
the former <7223 ri>shown >, and shall certainly come <0935 bow>

with a great <1419 gadowl > army <2428 chayil > and with much
riches <7399 r@kuwsh >.



14 And in those <1992 hem > times <6256 <eth > there shall many
<7227 rab > stand <5975 <amad > up against < 5921 <al > the king
<4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb >: also the robbers <6530
p@riyts > of thy people <5971 <am > shall exalt < 5375 nasa> >
themselves to establish <5975 <amad > the vision < 2377 chazown >;
but they shall fall <3782 kashal >.



15 So the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown >
shall come <0935 bow> >, and cast <8210 shaphak > up a mount
<5550 col@lah >, and take <3920 lakad > the most fenced <4013
mibtsar > cities <5892 <iyr >: and the arms <2220 z@rowa< > of
the south <5045 negeb > shall not withstand <5975 < amad >,
neither <0369 >ayin > his chosen <4005 mibchar > people <5971
<am >, neither <0369 >ayin > [shall there be any] strength <3581
koach > to withstand <5975 <amad >.



16 But he that cometh <0935 bow> > against <0413 > el > him
shall do <6213 <asah > according to his own <7522 ratsown > will
<7522 ratsown >, and none <0369 >ayin > shall stand <5975 <amad

the glorious <6643 ts@biy > land <0776 >erets >, which by his
hand <3027 yad > shall be consumed <3615 kalah >.



17 He shall also set <7760 suwm > his face <6440 paniym > to
enter <0935 bow> > with the strength <8633 toqeph > of his whole
<3605 kol > kingdom <4438 malkuwth >, and upright < 3477 yashar >
ones with him; thus shall he do <6213 <asah >: and he shall give
<5414 nathan > him the daughter <1323 bath > of women <0802
>ishshah >, corrupting <7843 shachath > her: but she shall not
stand <5975 <amad > [on his side], neither <3808 lo> > be for
him.



18 After this shall he turn <7725 shuwb > his face < 6440 paniym
> unto the isles <0339 >iy >, and shall take <3920 lakad > many
<7227 rab >: but a prince <7101 qatsiyn > for his own behalf
shall cause the reproach <2781 cherpah > offered by him to cease
<7673 shabath >; without <1115 biltiy > his own reproach <2781
cherpah > he shall cause [it] to turn <7725 shuwb > upon him.



19 Then he shall turn <7725 shuwb > his face <6440 paniym >
toward the fort <4581 ma<owz > of his own land <0776 >erets >:
but he shall stumble <3782 kashal > and fall <5307 naphal >, and
not be found <4672 matsa> >.



20 Then shall stand <5975 <amad > up in his estate < 3653 ken >
a raiser <5674 <abar > of taxes <5065 nagas > [in] the glory
<1925 heder > of the kingdom <4438 malkuwth >: but within few
<0259 >echad > days <3117 yowm > he shall be destroyed <7665
shabar >, neither <3808 lo> > in anger <0639 > aph >, nor <3808
lo> > in battle <4421 milchamah >.



21. And in his estate <3653 ken > shall stand <5975 < amad > up
a vile <0959 bazah > person, to whom <5921 <al > they shall not
give <5414 nathan > the honour <1935 howd > of the kingdom <4438
malkuwth >: but he shall come <0935 bow> > in peaceably <7962
shalvah >, and obtain <2388 chazaq > the kingdom < 4438 malkuwth
> by flatteries <2519 chalaqlaqqah >.



22 And with the arms <2220 z@rowa< > of a flood < 7858 sheteph >
shall they be overflown <7857 shataph > from before < 6440 paniym

<1571 gam > the prince <5057 nagiyd > of the covenant <1285
b@riyth >.



23 And after the league <2266 chabar > [made] with him he shall
work <6213 <asah > deceitfully <4820 mirmah >: for he shall come
<5927 <alah > up, and shall become <6105 <atsam > strong <6105
<atsam > with a small <4592 m@<at > people < 1471 gowy >.



24 He shall enter <0935 bow> > peaceably <7962 shalvah > even
upon the fattest <4924 mashman > places of the province < 4082
m@diynah >; and he shall do <6213 <asah > [that] which <0834
>aher > his fathers <1> have not done <6213 < asah >, nor his
fathers <1>' fathers <1>; he shall scatter <0967 bazar > among
them the prey <0961 bizzah >, and spoil <7998 shalal > , and
riches <7399 r@kuwsh >: [yea], and he shall forecast < 2803
chashab > his devices <4284 machashabah > against < 5921 <al >
the strong <4013 mibtsar > holds <4013 mibtsar >, even for a
time <6256 <eth >.



25 And he shall stir <5782 <uwr > up his power <3581 koach >
and his courage <3824 lebab > against <5921 <al > the king <4428
melek > of the south <5045 negeb > with a great <1419 gadowl >
army <2428 chayil >; and the king <4428 melek > of the south
<5045 negeb > shall be stirred <1624 garah > up to battle <4421
milchamah > with a very great <1419 gadowl > and mighty <6099
<atsuwm > army <2428 chayil >; but he shall not stand <5975
<amad >: for they shall forecast <2803 chashab > devices <4284
machashabah > against <5921 <al > him.



26 Yea, they that feed <0398 >akal > of the portion < 6598
pathbag > of his meat <6598 pathbag > shall destroy < 7665 shabar
> him, and his army <2428 chayil > shall overflow < 7857 shataph
>: and many <7227 rab > shall fall <5307 naphal > down slain
<2491 chalal >.



27 And both <8147 sh@nayim > these kings <4428 melek >' hearts
<3824 lebab > [shall be] to do mischief <4827 mera< >, and they
shall speak <1696 dabar > lies <3576 kazab > at < 5921 <al > one
<0259 >echad > table <7979 shulchan >; but it shall not prosper
<6743 tsalach >: for yet <5750 <owd > the end < 7093 qets >
[shall be] at the time appointed <4150 mow<ed >.



28 Then shall he return <7725 shuwb > into his land < 0776
>erets > with great <1419 gadowl > riches <7399 r@kuwsh >; and
his heart <3824 lebab > [shall be] against <5921 <al > the holy
<6944 qodesh > covenant <1285 b@riyth >; and he shall do <6213
<asah > [exploits], and return <7725 shuwb > to his own land
<0776 >erets >.



29 At the time appointed <4150 mow<ed > he shall return <7725
shuwb >, and come <0935 bow> > toward the south < 5045 negeb >;
but it shall not be as the former <7223 ri>shown >, or as the
latter <0314 >acharown >.



30 For the ships <6716 tsiy > of Chittim <3794 Kittiy > shall
come <0935 bow> > against him: therefore he shall be grieved
<3512 ka>ah >, and return <7725 shuwb >, and have indignation
<2194 za<am > against <5921 <al > the holy < 6944 qodesh >
covenant <1285 b@riyth >: so shall he do <6213 <asah >; he shall
even return <7725 shuwb >, and have intelligence <0995 biyn >
with them that forsake <5800 <azab > the holy <6944 qodesh >
covenant <1285 b@riyth >.



31 And arms <2220 z@rowa< > shall stand <5975 < amad > on his
part <2506 cheleq >, and they shall pollute <2490 chalal > the
sanctuary <4720 miqdash > of strength <4581 ma<owz >, and shall
take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the daily < 8548 tamiyd >
[sacrifice], and they shall place <5414 nathan > the abomination
<8251 shiqquwts > that maketh desolate <8074 shamem >.



32 And such as do wickedly <7561 rasha< > against the covenant
<1285 b@riyth > shall he corrupt <2610 chaneph > by flatteries
<2514 chalaqqah >: but the people <5971 <am > that do know <3045
yada< > their God <0430 >elohiym > shall be strong <2388 chazaq
>, and do <6213 <asah > [exploits].



33 And they that understand <7919 sakal > among the people
<5971 <am > shall instruct <0995 biyn > many < 7227 rab >: yet
they shall fall <3782 kashal > by the sword <2719 chereb >, and
by flame <3852 lehabah >, by captivity <7628 sh@biy >, and by
spoil <0961 bizzah >, [many] days <3117 yowm >.



34 Now when they shall fall <3782 kashal >, they shall be
holpen <5826 <azar > with a little <4592 m@<at > help <5828
<ezer >: but many <7227 rab > shall cleave <3867 lavah > to them
with flatteries <2519 chalaqlaqqah >.



35 And [some] of them of understanding <7919 sakal > shall fall
<3782 kashal >, to try <6884 tsaraph > them, and to purge <1305
barar >, and to make [them] white <3835 laban >, [even] to the
time <6256 <eth > of the end <7093 qets >: because [it is] yet
<5750 <owd > for a time appointed <4150 mow<ed > .





36 And the king <4428 melek > shall do <6213 <asah > according
to his will <7522 ratsown >; and he shall exalt <7311 ruwm >
himself, and magnify <1431 gadal > himself above <5921 <al >
every <3605 kol > god <0410 >el >, and shall speak <1696 dabar >
marvellous <6381 pala> > things against <5921 <al > the God
<0410 >el > of gods <0410 >el >, and shall prosper <6743 tsalach
> till <5704 <ad > the indignation <2195 za<am > be accomplished
<3615 kalah >: for that that is determined <2782 charats > shall
be done <6213 <asah >.



37 Neither <3808 lo> > shall he regard <0995 biyn > the God
<0430 >elohiym > of his fathers <1>, nor the desire <2532
chemdah > of women <0802 >ishshah >, nor <3808 lo> > regard
<0995 biyn > any <3605 kol > god <0433 >elowahh >: for he shall
magnify <1431 gadal > himself above <5921 <al > all <3605 kol >.



38 But in his estate <3653 ken > shall he honour <3513 kabad >
the God <0433 >elowahh > of forces <4581 ma<owz >: and a god
<0433 >elowahh > whom <0834 >aher > his fathers <1> knew <3045
yada< > not shall he honour <3513 kabad > with gold <2091 zahab
>, and silver <3701 keceph >, and with precious <3368 yaqar >
stones <68>, and pleasant <2530 chamad > things.



39 Thus shall he do <6213 <asah > in the most <4581 ma<owz >
strong <4581 ma<owz > holds <4013 mibtsar > with a strange <5236
nekar > god <0433 >elowahh >, whom <0834 >aher > he shall
acknowledge <5234 nakar > [and] increase <7235 rabah > with
glory <3519 kabowd >: and he shall cause them to rule < 4910
mashal > over many <7227 rab >, and shall divide < 2505 chalaq >
the land <0127 >adamah > for gain <4242 m@chiyr >.



40 And at the time <6256 <eth > of the end <7093 qets > shall
the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > push <5055
nagach > at him: and the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828
tsaphown > shall come <8175 sa<ar > against <5921 <al > him like
a whirlwind <8175 sa<ar >, with chariots <7393 rekeb >, and with
horsemen <6571 parash >, and with many <7227 rab > ships <0591
>oniyah >; and he shall enter <0935 bow> > into the countries
<0776 >erets >, and shall overflow <7857 shataph > and pass
<5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar >.





41 He shall enter <0935 bow> > also into the glorious <6643
ts@biy > land <0776 >erets >, and many <7227 rab > [countries]
shall be overthrown <3782 kashal >: but these <0428 > el-leh >
shall escape <4422 malat > out of his hand <3027 yad > , [even]
Edom <0123 >Edom >, and Moab <4124 Mow>ab >, and the chief <7225
re>shiyth > of the children <1121 ben > of Ammon < 5983 <Ammown >.





42 He shall stretch <7971 shalach > forth his hand < 3027 yad >
also upon the countries <0776 >erets >: and the land < 0776
>erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > shall not escape <6413
p@leytah >.



43 But he shall have power <4910 mashal > over the treasures
<4362 mikman > of gold <2091 zahab > and of silver <3701 keceph
>, and over all <3605 kol > the precious <2530 chamad > things
of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >: and the Libyans <3864 Luwbiy > and
the Ethiopians <3569 Kuwshiy > [shall be] at his steps < 4703
mits<ad >.



44 But tidings <8052 sh@muw<ah > out of the east < 4217 mizrach
> and out of the north <6828 tsaphown > shall trouble <0926
bahal > him: therefore he shall go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318
yatsa> > with great <1419 gadowl > fury <2534 chemah > to
destroy <8045 shamad >, and utterly to make away <2763 charam >
many <7227 rab >.



45 And he shall plant <5193 nata< > the tabernacles < 0168 >ohel

<3220 yam > in the glorious <6643 ts@biy > holy < 6944 qodesh >
mountain <2022 har >; yet he shall come <0935 bow> > to his end
<7093 qets >, and none <0369 >ayin > shall help <5826 <azar >
him.



Daniel 12



1. And at that time <6256 <eth > shall Michael <4317 Miyka>el >
stand <5975 <amad > up, the great <1419 gadowl > prince <8269
sar > which standeth <5975 <amad > for the children <1121 ben >
of thy people <5971 <am >: and there shall be a time < 6256 <eth

lo> > was since there was a nation <1471 gowy > [even] to that
same <1931 huw> > time <6256 <eth >: and at that time <6256 <eth

<3605 kol > one that shall be found <4672 matsa> > written <3789
kathab > in the book <5612 cepher >.



2 And many <7227 rab > of them that sleep <3463 yashen > in the
dust <6083 <aphar > of the earth <0127 >adamah > shall awake
<6974 quwts >, some <0428 >el-leh > to everlasting <5769 <owlam

cherpah > [and] everlasting <5769 <owlam > contempt <1860
d@ra>own >.



3 And they that be wise <7919 sakal > shall shine <2094 zahar >
as the brightness <2096 zohar > of the firmament <7549 raqiya< >;
and they that turn many <7227 rab > to righteousness < 6663
tsadaq > as the stars <3556 kowkab > for ever <5769 <owlam > and
ever <5703 <ad >.



4 But thou, O Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, shut <5640 catham > up
the words <1697 dabar >, and seal <2856 chatham > the book <5612
cepher >, [even] to the time <6256 <eth > of the end <7093 qets

shuwt >, and knowledge <1847 da<ath > shall be increased <7235
rabah >.



5. Then I Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > looked <7200 ra> ah >, and,
behold <2009 hinneh >, there stood <5975 <amad > other <0312

<2975 y@<or >, and the other <0259 >echad > on that side of the
bank <8193 saphah > of the river <2975 y@<or >.



6 And [one] said <0559 >amar > to the man <0376 > iysh > clothed
<3847 labash > in linen <0906 bad >, which <0834 >aher > [was]
upon the waters <4325 mayim > of the river <2975 y@< or >, How
<5704 <ad > long <5704 <ad > [shall it be to] the end <7093 qets

7 And I heard <8085 shama< > the man <0376 >iysh > clothed
<3847 labash > in linen <0906 bad >, which <0834 >aher > [was]
upon the waters <4325 mayim > of the river <2975 y@< or >, when
he held <7311 ruwm > up his right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225
yamiyn > and his left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl > unto
heaven <8064 shamayim >, and sware <7650 shaba< > by him that
liveth <2416 chay > for ever <5769 <owlam > that [it shall be]
for a time <4150 mow<ed >, times <4150 mow<ed >, and an half

<6944 qodesh > people <5971 <am >, all <3605 kol > these <0428

8 And I heard <8085 shama< >, but I understood <0995 biyn > not:
then said <0559 >amar > I, O my Lord <0113 >adown >, what <4100
mah > [shall be] the end <0319 >achariyth > of these <0428 >el-

9 And he said <0559 >amar >, Go <3212 yalak > thy way, Daniel
<1840 Daniye>l >: for the words <1697 dabar > [are] closed <5640
catham > up and sealed <2856 chatham > till <5704 < ad > the time

10 Many <7227 rab > shall be purified <1305 barar >, and made
white <3835 laban >, and tried <6884 tsaraph >; but the wicked
<7563 rasha< > shall do wickedly <7561 rasha< >: and none <3808
lo> > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > shall understand <0995 biyn >;
but the wise <7919 sakal > shall understand <0995 biyn >.



11 And from the time <6256 <eth > [that] the daily < 8548 tamiyd

the abomination <8251 shiqquwts > that maketh desolate < 8074

<0505 >eleph > two hundred <3967 me>ah > and ninety <8673
tish<iym > days <3117 yowm >.



12 Blessed <0835 >esher > [is] he that waiteth <2442 chakah >,
and cometh <5060 naga< > to the thousand <0505 > eleph > three
<7969 shalowsh > hundred <3967 me>ah > and five <2568 chamesh >
and thirty <7970 sh@lowshiym > days <3117 yowm >.



13 But go <3212 yalak > thou thy way <1870 derek > till the end
<7093 qets > [be]: for thou shalt rest <5117 nuwach >, and stand
<5975 <amad > in thy lot <1486 gowral > at the end <7093 qets >
of the days <3117 yowm >.
