Daniel 7

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 In the first year of Baltasar king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream: and the vision of his head was upon his bed: and writing the dream, he comprehended it in few words: and relating the sum of it in short, he said:	1 ετους πρωτου βασιλευοντος βαλτασαρ χωρας βαβυλωνιας δανιηλ οραμα ειδε παρα κεφαλην επι της κοιτης αυτου τοτε δανιηλ το οραμα ο ειδεν εγραψεν εις κεφαλαια λογων
2 I saw in my vision by night, and behold the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.	2 επι της κοιτης μου εθεωρουν καθ' υπνους νυκτος και ιδου τεσσαρες ανεμοι του ουρανου ενεπεσον εις την θαλασσαν την μεγαλην
3 And four great beasts, different one from another, came up out of the sea.	3 και τεσσαρα θηρια ανεβαινον εκ της θαλασσης διαφεροντα εν παρα το εν
4 The first was like a lioness, and had the wings of an eagle: I beheld till her wings were plucked off, and she was lifted up from the earth, and stood upon her feet as a man, and the heart of a man was given to her.	4 το πρωτον ωσει λεαινα εχουσα πτερα ωσει αετου εθεωρουν εως οτου ετιλη τα πτερα αυτης και ηρθη απο της γης και επι ποδων ανθρωπινων εσταθη και ανθρωπινη καρδια εδοθη αυτη
5 And behold another beast like a bear stood up on one side: and there were three rows in the mouth thereof, and in the teeth thereof, and thus they said to it: Arise, devour much flesh.	5 και ιδου μετ' αυτην αλλο θηριον ομοιωσιν εχον αρκου και επι του ενος πλευρου εσταθη και τρια πλευρα ην εν τω στοματι αυτης και ουτως ειπεν αναστα καταφαγε σαρκας πολλας
6 After this I beheld, and lo, another like a leopard, and it had upon it four wings as of a fowl, and the beast had four heads, and power was given to it.	6 και μετα ταυτα εθεωρουν θηριον αλλο ωσει παρδαλιν και πτερα τεσσαρα επετεινον επανω αυτου και τεσσαρες κεφαλαι τω θηριω και γλωσσα εδοθη αυτω
7 After this I beheld in the vision of the night, and lo, a fourth beast, terrible and wonderful, and exceeding strong, it had great iron teeth, eating and breaking in pieces, and treading down the rest with its feet: and it was unlike to the other beasts which I had seen before it, and had ten horns.	7 μετα δε ταυτα εθεωρουν εν οραματι της νυκτος θηριον τεταρτον φοβερον και ο φοβος αυτου υπερφερων ισχυι εχον οδοντας σιδηρους μεγαλους εσθιον και κοπανιζον κυκλω τοις ποσι καταπατουν διαφορως χρωμενον παρα παντα τα προ αυτου θηρια ειχε δε κερατα δεκα
8 I considered the horns, and behold another little horn sprung out of the midst of them: and three of the first horns were plucked up at the presence thereof: and behold eyes like the eyes of a man were in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things.	8 και βουλαι πολλαι εν τοις κερασιν αυτου και ιδου αλλο εν κερας ανεφυη ανα μεσον αυτων μικρον εν τοις κερασιν αυτου και τρια των κερατων των πρωτων εξηρανθησαν δι' αυτου και ιδου οφθαλμοι ωσπερ οφθαλμοι ανθρωπινοι εν τω κερατι τουτω και στομα λαλουν μεγαλα και εποιει πολεμον προς τους αγιους
9 I beheld till thrones were placed, and the Ancient of days sat: his garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like clean wool: his throne like flames of fire: the wheels of it like a burning fire.	9 εθεωρουν εως οτε θρονοι ετεθησαν και παλαιος ημερων εκαθητο εχων περιβολην ωσει χιονα και το τριχωμα της κεφαλης αυτου ωσει εριον λευκον καθαρον ο θρονος ωσει φλοξ πυρος
10 A swift stream of fire issued forth from before him: thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times a hundred thousand stood before him: the judgment sat, and the books were opened.	10 και εξεπορευετο κατα προσωπον αυτου ποταμος πυρος χιλιαι χιλιαδες εθεραπευον αυτον και μυριαι μυριαδες παρειστηκεισαν αυτω και κριτηριον εκαθισε και βιβλοι ηνεωχθησαν
11 I beheld because of the voice of the great words which that horn spoke: and I saw that the beast was slain, and the body thereof was destroyed, and given to the fire to be burnt:	11 εθεωρουν τοτε την φωνην των λογων των μεγαλων ων το κερας ελαλει και απετυμπανισθη το θηριον και απωλετο το σωμα αυτου και εδοθη εις καυσιν πυρος
12 And that the power of the other beasts was taken away: and that times of life were appointed them for a time, and time.	12 και τους κυκλω αυτου απεστησε της εξουσιας αυτων και χρονος ζωης εδοθη αυτοις εως χρονου και καιρου
13 I beheld therefore in the vision of the night, and lo, one like the son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and he came even to the Ancient of days: and they presented him before him.	13 εθεωρουν εν οραματι της νυκτος και ιδου επι των νεφελων του ουρανου ως υιος ανθρωπου ηρχετο και ως παλαιος ημερων παρην και οι παρεστηκοτες παρησαν αυτω
14 And he gave him power, and glory, and a kingdom: and all peoples, tribes and tongues shall serve him: his power is an everlasting power that shall not be taken away: and his kingdom that shall not be destroyed.	14 και εδοθη αυτω εξουσια και παντα τα εθνη της γης κατα γενη και πασα δοξα αυτω λατρευουσα και η εξουσια αυτου εξουσια αιωνιος ητις ου μη αρθη και η βασιλεια αυτου ητις ου μη φθαρη
15 My spirit trembled, I Daniel was affrighted at these things, and the visions of my head troubled me.	15 και ακηδιασας εγω δανιηλ εν τουτοις εν τω οραματι της νυκτος
16 I went near to one of them that stood by, and asked the truth of him concerning all these things, and he told me the interpretation of the words, and instructed me:	16 προσηλθον προς ενα των εστωτων και την ακριβειαν εζητουν παρ' αυτου υπερ παντων τουτων αποκριθεις δε λεγει μοι και την κρισιν των λογων εδηλωσε μοι
17 These four great beasts are four kingdoms, which shall arise out of the earth.	17 ταυτα τα θηρια τα μεγαλα εισι τεσσαρες βασιλειαι αι απολουνται απο της γης
18 But the saints of the most high God shall take the kingdom: and they shall possess the kingdom for ever and ever.	18 και παραληψονται την βασιλειαν αγιοι υψιστου και καθεξουσι την βασιλειαν εως του αιωνος και εως του αιωνος των αιωνων
19 After this I would diligently learn concerning the fourth beast. which was very different from all, and exceeding terrible: his teeth and claws were of iron: he devoured and broke in pieces, and the rest he stamped upon with his feet:	19 τοτε ηθελον εξακριβασασθαι περι του θηριου του τεταρτου του διαφθειροντος παντα και υπερφοβου και ιδου οι οδοντες αυτου σιδηροι και οι ονυχες αυτου χαλκοι κατεσθιοντες παντας κυκλοθεν και καταπατουντες τοις ποσι
20 And concerning the ten horns that he had on his head: and concerning the other that came up, before which three horns fell: and of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and was greater than the rest.	20 και περι των δεκα κερατων αυτου των επι της κεφαλης και του ενος του αλλου του προσφυεντος και εξεπεσαν δι' αυτου τρια και το κερας εκεινο ειχεν οφθαλμους και στομα λαλουν μεγαλα και η προσοψις αυτου υπερεφερε τα αλλα
21 I beheld, and lo, that horn made war against the saints, and prevailed over them,	21 και κατενοουν το κερας εκεινο πολεμον συνισταμενον προς τους αγιους και τροπουμενον αυτους
22 Till the Ancient of days came and gave judgment to the saints of the most High, and the time came, and the saints obtained the kingdom.	22 εως του ελθειν τον παλαιον ημερων και την κρισιν εδωκε τοις αγιοις του υψιστου και ο καιρος εδοθη και το βασιλειον κατεσχον οι αγιοι
23 And thus he said: The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be greater than all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.	23 και ερρεθη μοι περι του θηριου του τεταρτου οτι βασιλεια τεταρτη εσται επι της γης ητις διοισει παρα πασαν την γην και αναστατωσει αυτην και καταλεανει αυτην
24 And the ten horns of the same kingdom, shall be ten kings: and another shall rise up after them, and he shall be mightier than the former, and he shall bring down three kings.	24 και τα δεκα κερατα της βασιλειας δεκα βασιλεις στησονται και ο αλλος βασιλευς μετα τουτους στησεται και αυτος διοισει κακοις υπερ τους πρωτους και τρεις βασιλεις ταπεινωσει
25 And he shall speak words against the High One, and shall crush the saints of the most High: and he shall think himself able to change times and laws, and they shall be delivered into his hand until a time, and times, and half a time.	25 και ρηματα εις τον υψιστον λαλησει και τους αγιους του υψιστου κατατριψει και προσδεξεται αλλοιωσαι καιρους και νομον και παραδοθησεται παντα εις τας χειρας αυτου εως καιρου και καιρων και εως ημισους καιρου
26 And judgment shall sit, that his power may be taken away, and be broken in pieces, and perish even to the end.	26 και η κρισις καθισεται και την εξουσιαν απολουσι και βουλευσονται μιαναι και απολεσαι εως τελους
27 And that the kingdom, and power, and the greatness of the kingdom, under the whole heaven, may be given to the people of the saints of the most High: whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all kings shall serve him, and shall obey him.	27 και την βασιλειαν και την εξουσιαν και την μεγαλειοτητα αυτων και την αρχην πασων των υπο τον ουρανον βασιλειων εδωκε λαω αγιω υψιστου βασιλευσαι βασιλειαν αιωνιον και πασαι αι εξουσιαι αυτω υποταγησονται και πειθαρχησουσιν αυτω
28 Hitherto is the end of the word. I Daniel was much troubled with my thoughts, and my countenance was changed in me: but I kept the word in my heart.	28 εως καταστροφης του λογου εγω δανιηλ σφοδρα εκστασει περιειχομην και η εξις μου διηνεγκεν εμοι και το ρημα εν καρδια μου εστηριξα
