Daniele 10

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Anno tertio Cyri regis Per sarum verbum revelatum est Danieli cognomentoBaltassar, et verum verbum et acies magna; intellexitque sermonem, intellegentiaenim fuit ei in visione.	1 In the third year of Cyrus king of the Persians, a word was revealed to Daniel surnamed Baltassar, and a true word, and great strength: and he understood the word: for there is need of understanding in a vision.
2 In diebus illis ego Daniel lugebam tribus hebdomadisdierum,	2 In those days I Daniel mourned the days of three weeks.
3 panem desiderabilem non comedi, et caro et vinum non introierunt in osmeum, sed neque unguento unctus sum, donec complerentur tres hebdomades dierum.	3 I ate no desirable bread, and neither flesh, nor wine entered into my mouth, neither was I anointed with ointment: till the days of three weeks were accomplished.
4 Die autem vicesima et quarta mensis primi eram iuxta fluvium magnum, qui estTigris,	4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month I was by the great river which is the Tigris.
5 et levavi oculos meos et vidi: et ecce vir unus vestitus lineis, etrenes eius accincti auro obryzo;	5 And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw: and behold a man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with the finest gold:
6 et corpus eius quasi chrysolithus, et facieseius velut species fulgoris, et oculi eius ut lampas ardens, et brachia eius et,quae deorsum sunt usque ad pedes, quasi species aeris candentis, et vox sermonumeius ut vox multitudinis.	6 And his body was like the chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as a burning lamp: and his arms, and all downward even to the feet, like in appearance to glittering brass: and the voice of his word like the voice of a multitude.
7 Vidi autem ego Daniel solus visionem; porro viri,qui erant mecum, visionem non viderunt, sed terror nimius irruit super eos, etfugerunt in absconditum.	7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw it not: but an exceeding great terror fell upon them, and they fled away, and hid themselves.
8 Ego autem relictus solus vidi visionem grandem hanc,et non remansit in me fortitudo, sed et species mea immutata est in me usque addissipationem, nec habui quidquam virium.	8 And I being left alone saw this great vision: and there remained no strength in me, and the appearance of my countenance was changed in me, and I fainted away, and retained no strength.
9 Et audivi vocem sermonum eius; etaudiens vocem sermonum eius iacebam consternatus super faciem meam, et vultusmeus haerebat terrae.	9 And I heard the voice of his words: and when I heard, I lay in a consternation, upon my face, and my face was close to the ground.
10 Et ecce manus tetigit me et erexit me super genua mea et super palmas manuummearum,	10 And behold a hand touched me, and lifted me up upon my knees, and upon the joints of my hands.
11 et dixit ad me: “ Daniel, vir desideriorum, intellege verba, quaeego loquor ad te, et sta in gradu tuo; nunc enim sum missus ad te ”. Cumquedixisset mihi sermonem istum, steti tremens.	11 And he said to me: Daniel, thou man of desires, understand the words that I speak to thee, and stand upright: for I am sent now to thee. And when he had said this word to me, I stood trembling.
12 Et ait ad me: “ Noli metuere,Daniel, quia ex die primo, quo posuisti cor tuum ad intellegendum et adhumiliandum te in conspectu Dei tui, exaudita sunt verba tua; et ego venipropter sermones tuos.	12 And he said to me: Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, to afflict thyself in the sight of thy God, thy words have been heard: and I am come for thy words.
13 Princeps autem regni Persarum restitit mihi viginti etuno diebus; et ecce Michael, unus de principibus primis, venit in adiutoriummeum; et ego remansi ibi iuxta regem Persarum.	13 But the prince of the kingdom of the Persians resisted me one and twenty days: and behold Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, and I remained there by the king of the Persians.
14 Veni autem, ut docerem te,quae ventura sunt populo tuo in novissimis diebus, quoniam adhuc visio in dies”.	14 But I am come to teach thee what things shall befall thy people in the latter days, for as yet the vision is for days.
15 Cumque loqueretur mihi huiuscemodi verbis, deieci vultum meum ad terramet tacui.	15 And when he was speaking such words to me, I cast down my countenance to the ground, and held my peace.
16 Et ecce quasi similitudo filiorum hominis tetigit labia mea; etaperiens os meum locutus sum et dixi ad eum, qui stabat contra me: “ Dominemi, in visione angustiae venerunt super me, et nihil in me remansit virium.	16 And behold, as it were the likeness of a son of man touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spoke, and said to him that stood before me: O my Lord, at the sight of thee my joints are loosed, and no strength hath remained in me.
17 Et quomodo poterit servus domini mei loqui cum hoc domino meo? Nihil enim in meremansit virium, et halitus meus non remansit in me ”.	17 And how can the servant of my lord speak with my lord? for no strength remaineth in me, moreover my breath is stopped.
18 Rursum ergo tetigitme quasi visio hominis et confortavit me	18 Therefore he that looked like a man touched me again, and strengthened me.
19 et dixit: “Noli timere, virdesideriorum; pax tibi, confortare et esto robustus ”. Cumque loquereturmecum, convalui et dixi: “ Loquere, domine mi, quia confortasti me ”.	19 And he said: Fear not, O man of desires, peace be to thee: take courage and be strong. And when he spoke to me, I grew strong: and I said: Speak, O my lord, for thou hast strengthened me.
20 Et ait: “ Numquid scis, quare venerim ad te? Et nunc revertar, ut proelieradversum principem Persarum. Et ego egrediar, et ecce princeps Graecorumveniens.	20 And he said: Dost thou know wherefore I am come to thee? and now I will return, to fight against the prince of the Persians. When I went forth, there appeared the prince of the Greeks coming.
21 Verumtamen annuntiabo tibi, quod expressum est in scripturaveritatis; et nemo est adiutor meus adversus hos, nisi Michael princeps vester.	21 But I will tell thee what is set down in the scripture of truth: and none is my helper in all these things, but Michael your prince.
