Daniele 8

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Anno tertio regni Balthasar regis visio apparuit mihi, ego Daniel, postid quod mihi apparuerat in principio.	1 In the third year of the reign of king Baltasar, a vision appeared to me. I Daniel, after what I had seen in the beginning,
2 Vidi in visione, et factum est, dumviderem, eram in Susis castro, quod est in Elam provincia; vidi autem in visioneesse me super rivum Ulai.	2 Saw in my vision when I was in the castle of Susa, which is in the province of Elam: and I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai.
3 Et levavi oculos meos et vidi: et ecce aries unusstabat ante rivum habens cornua et cornua excelsa et unum excelsius altero, etexcelsius crescebat in postero.	3 And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold a ram stood before the water, having two high horns, and one higher than the other, and growing up. Afterward
4 Vidi arietem cornibus ventilantem contraoccidentem et contra aquilonem et contra meridiem, et omnes bestiae non poterantresistere ei neque liberari de manu eius; fecitque secundum voluntatem suam etmagnificatus est.	4 I saw the ram pushing with his horns against the west, and against the north, and against the south: and no beasts could withstand him, nor be delivered out of his hand: and he did according to his own will, and became great.
5 Et ego intellegebam: ecce autem hircus caprarum veniebat aboccidente super faciem totius terrae et non tangebat terram; porro hircushabebat cornu insigne inter oculos suos.	5 And I understood: and behold a he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and he touched not the ground, and the he goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
6 Et venit usque ad arietem illumcornutum, quem videram stantem ante rivum, et cucurrit ad eum in impetufortitudinis suae.	6 And he went up to the ram that had the horns, which I had seen standing before the gate, and he ran towards him in the force of his strength.
7 Vidi eum appropinquantem prope arietem, et efferatus est ineum et percussit arietem et comminuit duo cornua eius, et non poterat ariesresistere ei; cumque eum misisset in terram, conculcavit, et nemo quibatliberare arietem de manu eius.	7 And when he was come near the ram, he was enraged against him, and struck the ram: and broke his two horns, and the ram could not withstand him: and when he had cast him down on the ground, he stamped upon him, and none could deliver the ram out of his hand.
8 Hircus autem caprarum magnus factus est nimis;cumque crevisset, fractum est cornu magnum, et orta sunt quattuor cornua locoillius per quattuor ventos caeli.	8 And the he goat became exceeding great: and when he was grown, the great horn was broken, and there came up four horns under it towards the four winds of heaven.
9 De uno autem ex eis egressum est cornu unummodicum et factum est grande contra meridiem et contra orientem et contrafortitudinem	9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn: and it became great against the south, and against the east, and against the strength.
10 et magnificatum est usque ad fortitudinem caeli et deiecit defortitudine et de stellis et conculcavit eas;	10 And it was magnified even unto the strength of heaven: and it threw down of the strength, and of the stars, and trod upon them.
11 et usque ad principemfortitudinis magnificatum est et ab eo tulit iuge sacrificium et deiecit locumsanctificationis eius.	11 And it was magnified even to the prince of the strength: and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary.
12 Militia autem data est contra iuge sacrificium propterpeccata, et prostrata est veritas in terra; cornu autem fecit et prosperatumest.	12 And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper.
13 Et audivi unum de sanctis loquentem, et dixit unus sanctus alteri, nesciocui, loquenti: “ Usquequo visio et iuge sacrificium et peccatum desolationis,quae facta est, et sanctuarium et fortitudo conculcabitur? ”.	13 And I heard one of the saints speaking, and one saint said to another, I know not to whom that was speaking: How long shall be the vision, concerning the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation that is made: and the sanctuary, and the strength be trodden under foot?
14 Et dixit ei:“ Usque ad vesperam et mane, dies duo milia trecenti; et mundabitursanctuarium ”.	14 And he said to him: Unto evening and morning two thousand three hundred days: and the sanctuary shall be cleansed.
15 Factum est autem cum viderem ego Daniel visionem et quaererem intellegentiam,ecce stetit in conspectu meo quasi species viri;	15 And it came to pass when I Daniel saw the vision, and sought the meaning, that behold there stood before me as it were the appearance of a man.
16 et audivi vocem viri interUlai, et clamavit et ait: “ Gabriel, fac intellegere istum visionem ”.	16 And I heard the voice of a man between Ulai: and he called, and said: Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
17 Etvenit et stetit iuxta, ubi ego stabam; cumque venisset, pavens corrui in faciemmeam, et ait ad me: “Intellege, fili hominis, quoniam in tempore finiscomplebitur visio ”.	17 And he came and stood near where I stood: and when he was come, I fell on my face trembling, and he said to me: Understand, O son of man, for in the time of the end the vision shall be fulfilled.
18 Cumque loqueretur ad me, collapsus sum pronus interram, et tetigit me et statuit me in gradu meo	18 And when he spoke to me I fell flat on the ground: and he touched me, and set me upright,
19 dixitque: “ Ecce egoostendam tibi, quae futura sint in novissimo maledictionis, quoniam in temporeerit finis.	19 And he said to me: I will shew thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end.
20 Aries, quem vidisti habere cornua, reges Medorum est atque Persarum;	20 The ram, which thou sawest with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians.
21 porrohircus caprarum rex Graecorum est, et cornu grande, quod erat inter oculos eius,ipse est rex primus.	21 And the he goat, is the king of the Greeks, and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king.
22 Quod autem, fracto illo, surrexerunt quattuor pro eo,quattuor regna de gente eius consurgent sed non in fortitudine eius.	22 But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength.
23 Et postregnum eorum, cum creverint iniquitate, consurget rex impudens facie etintellegens propositiones;	23 And after their reign, when iniquities shall be grown up, there shall arise a king of a shameless face, and understanding dark sentences.
24 et roborabitur fortitudo eius sed non in viribussuis, et supra quam credi potest universa vastabit et prosperabitur et faciet etinterficiet robustos et populum sanctorum,	24 And his power shall be strengthened, but not by his own force: and he shall lay all things waste, and shall prosper, and do more than can be believed. And he shall destroy the mighty, and the people of the saints,
25 et secundum sapientiam suamprosperabitur dolus in manu eius, et in corde suo magnificabitur et intranquillitate occidet plurimos et contra principem principum consurget et sinemanu conteretur.	25 According to his will, and craft shall be successful in his hand: and his heart shall be puffed up, and in the abundance of all things he shall kill many: and he shall rise up against the prince of princes, and shall be broken without hand.
26 Et visio vespere et mane, quae dicta est, vera est; tu ergosigna visionem, quia post dies multos erit ”.	26 And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true: thou therefore seal up the vision, because it shall come to pass after many days.
27 Et ego Daniel langui etaegrotavi per dies; cumque surrexissem, faciebam opera regis et stupebam advisionem, et non erat qui intellegeret.	27 And I Daniel languished, and was sick for some days: and when I was risen up, I did the king's business, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none that could interpret it.
