Daniel 8
Bíblia Portuguesa Mundial
1No terceiro ano do reinado do rei Belsazar, uma visão apareceu a mim, a mim mesmo, Daniel, depois daquela que me apareceu no princípio.
2Eu vi a visão. Aconteceu que, quando a vi, eu estava na cidadela de Susã, que fica na província de Elão. Eu vi na visão, e eu estava junto ao rio Ulai.
3Então levantei os meus olhos e vi, e eis que um carneiro que tinha dois chifres estava em pé diante do rio. Os dois chifres eram altos, mas um era mais alto que o outro, e o mais alto subiu por último.
4Eu vi o carneiro dando marradas para o oeste, para o norte e para o sul. Nenhum animal podia resistir diante dele. Não havia ninguém que pudesse livrar de sua mão, mas ele fazia segundo a sua vontade, e se engrandeceu.
5Enquanto eu considerava, eis que um bode veio do oeste sobre a superfície de toda a terra, e não tocava no chão. O bode tinha um chifre notável entre os seus olhos.
6Ele veio até o carneiro que tinha os dois chifres, o qual eu vi em pé diante do rio, e correu contra ele na fúria do seu poder.
7Eu o vi chegar perto do carneiro, e ele se moveu de ira contra ele, e feriu o carneiro, e quebrou os seus dois chifres. Não havia poder no carneiro para resistir diante dele; mas ele o lançou por terra e o pisoteou. Não havia ninguém que pudesse livrar o carneiro da sua mão.
8O bode se engrandeceu sobremaneira. Quando ele estava forte, o grande chifre foi quebrado; e em seu lugar subiram quatro chifres notáveis em direção aos quatro ventos do céu.
9De um deles saiu um pequeno chifre que cresceu sobremaneira — para o sul, e para o leste, e para a terra gloriosa.
10Ele cresceu muito, até o exército do céu; e lançou por terra parte do exército e das estrelas, e os pisoteou.
11Sim, ele se engrandeceu, até mesmo contra o príncipe do exército; e tirou dele o holocausto contínuo, e o lugar do seu santuário foi deitado abaixo.
12O exército foi entregue a ele junto com o holocausto contínuo por causa da desobediência. Ele lançou a verdade por terra, e fez o que lhe agradou e prosperou.
13Então ouvi um santo falando; e outro santo disse àquele certo ser que falava: “Até quando durará a visão sobre o holocausto contínuo, e a desobediência que causa desolação, para entregar tanto o santuário quanto o exército para serem pisoteados?”
14Ele me disse: “Até duas mil e trezentas tardes e manhãs. Então o santuário será purificado.”
15Quando eu, eu mesmo, Daniel, vi a visão, busquei entendê-la. Então eis que estava em pé diante de mim alguém com a aparência de um homem.
16Ouvi a voz de um homem entre as margens do Ulai, que chamou e disse: “Gabriel, faça este homem entender a visão.”
17Então ele chegou perto de onde eu estava; e quando ele veio, fiquei apavorado, e caí sobre o meu rosto; mas ele me disse: “Entenda, filho do homem, pois a visão pertence ao tempo do fim.”
18Ora, enquanto ele falava comigo, caí em um sono profundo com o meu rosto voltado para o chão; mas ele me tocou e me colocou em pé.
19Ele disse: “Eis que eu farei você saber o que acontecerá no último tempo da indignação, pois isso pertence ao tempo determinado do fim.
20O carneiro que você viu, que tinha os dois chifres, eles são os reis da Média e da Pérsia.
21O bode peludo é o rei da Grécia. O grande chifre que está entre os seus olhos é o primeiro rei.
22Quanto àquele que foi quebrado, no lugar onde quatro se levantaram, quatro reinos se levantarão da nação, mas não com o seu poder.
23“No último tempo do seu reino, quando os transgressores tiverem chegado ao limite, um rei de rosto feroz, e que entende enigmas, se levantará.
24O seu poder será grande, mas não pelo seu próprio poder. Ele causará destruição terrível, e prosperará no que fizer. Ele destruirá os poderosos e o povo santo.
25Por meio da sua astúcia ele fará o engano prosperar em sua mão. Ele se engrandecerá em seu coração, e destruirá a muitos em sua segurança. Ele também se levantará contra o Príncipe dos príncipes, mas será quebrado sem mãos humanas.
26“A visão das tardes e manhãs que foi contada é verdadeira; mas sele a visão, pois ela se refere a muitos dias vindouros.”
27Eu, Daniel, desmaiei, e fiquei doente por alguns dias. Então me levantei e tratei dos negócios do rei. Eu me espantei com a visão, mas ninguém a entendeu.
Reina-Valera 1909
1EN el año tercero del reinado del rey Belsasar, me apareció una visión á mí, Daniel, después de aquella que me había aparecido antes.
2Vi en visión, (y aconteció cuando vi, que yo estaba en Susán, que es cabecera del reino en la provincia de Persia;) vi pues en visión, estando junto al río Ulai,
3Y alcé mis ojos, y miré, y he aquí un carnero que estaba delante del río, el cual tenía dos cuernos: y aunque eran altos, el uno era más alto que el otro; y el más alto subió á la postre.
4Vi que el carnero hería con los cuernos al poniente, al norte, y al mediodía, y que ninguna bestia podía parar delante de él, ni había quien escapase de su mano: y hacía conforme á su voluntad, y engrandecíase.
5Y estando yo considerando, he aquí un macho de cabrío venía de la parte del poniente sobre la haz de toda la tierra, el cual no tocaba la tierra: y tenía aquel macho de cabrío un cuerno notable entre sus ojos:
6Y vino hasta el carnero que tenía los dos cuernos, al cual había yo visto que estaba delante del río, y corrió contra él con la ira de su fortaleza.
7Y vilo que llegó junto al carnero, y levantóse contra él, é hiriólo, y quebró sus dos cuernos, porque en el carnero no había fuerzas para parar delante de él: derribólo por tanto en tierra, y hollólo; ni hubo quien librase al carnero de su mano.
8Y engrandecióse en gran manera el macho de cabrío; y estando en su mayor fuerza, aquel gran cuerno fué quebrado, y en su lugar subieron otros cuatro maravillosos hacia los cuatro vientos del cielo.
9Y del uno de ellos salió un cuerno pequeño, el cual creció mucho al mediodía, y al oriente, y hacia la tierra deseable.
10Y engrandecióse hasta el ejército del cielo; y parte del ejército y de las estrellas echó por tierra, y las holló.
11Aun contra el príncipe de la fortaleza se engrandeció, y por él fué quitado el continuo sacrificio, y el lugar de su santuario fué echado por tierra.
12Y el ejército fuéle entregado á causa de la prevaricación sobre el continuo sacrificio: y echó por tierra la verdad, é hizo cuanto quiso, y sucedióle prósperamente.
13Y oí un santo que hablaba; y otro de los santos dijo á aquél que hablaba: ¿Hasta cuándo durará la visión del continuo sacrificio, y la prevaricación asoladora que pone el santuario y el ejército para ser hollados?
14Y él me dijo: Hasta dos mil y trescientos días de tarde y mañana; y el santuario será purificado.
15Y acaeció que estando yo Daniel considerando la visión, y buscando su inteligencia, he aquí, como una semejanza de hombre se puso delante de mí.
16Y oí una voz de hombre entre las riberas de Ulai, que gritó y dijo: Gabriel, enseña la visión á éste.
17Vino luego cerca de donde yo estaba; y con su venida me asombré, y caí sobre mi rostro. Empero él me dijo: Entiende, hijo del hombre, porque al tiempo se cumplirá la visión.
18Y estando él hablando conmigo, caí dormido en tierra sobre mi rostro: y él me tocó, é hízome estar en pie.
19Y dijo: He aquí yo te enseñaré lo que ha de venir en el fin de la ira: porque al tiempo se cumplirá:
20Aquel carnero que viste, que tenía cuernos, son los reyes de Media y de Persia.
21Y el macho cabrío es el rey de Javán: y el cuerno grande que tenía entre sus ojos es el rey primero.
22Y que fué quebrado y sucedieron cuatro en su lugar, significa que cuatro reinos sucederán de la nación, mas no en la fortaleza de él.
23Y al cabo del imperio de éstos, cuando se cumplirán los prevaricadores, levantaráse un rey altivo de rostro, y entendido en dudas.
24Y su poder se fortalecerá, mas no con fuerza suya; y destruirá maravillosamente, y prosperará; y hará arbitrariamente, y destruirá fuertes y al pueblo de los santos.
25Y con su sagacidad hará prosperar el engaño en su mano; y en su corazón se engrandecerá, y con paz destruirá á muchos: y contra el príncipe de los príncipes se levantará; mas sin mano será quebrantado.
26Y la visión de la tarde y la mañana que está dicha, es verdadera: y tú guarda la visión, porque es para muchos días.
27Y yo Daniel fuí quebrantado, y estuve enfermo algunos días: y cuando convalecí, hice el negocio del rey; mas estaba espantado acerca de la visión, y no había quien la entendiese.
King James Version
1In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.
2And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was at Shushan in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai.
3Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
4I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great.
5And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
6And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.
7And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.
8Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.
9And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.
10And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.
11Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
12And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.
13Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
14And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
15And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.
16And I heard a man’s voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
17So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.
18Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.
19And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.
20The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.
21And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.
22Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.
23And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
24And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
26And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days.
27And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king’s business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.
World English Bible
1In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar, a vision appeared to me, even to me, Daniel, after that which appeared to me at the first.
2I saw the vision. Now it was so, that when I saw, I was in the citadel of Susa, which is in the province of Elam. I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai.
3Then I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, a ram which had two horns stood before the river. The two horns were high, but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
4I saw the ram pushing westward, northward, and southward. No animals could stand before him. There wasn’t any who could deliver out of his hand, but he did according to his will, and magnified himself.
5As I was considering, behold, a male goat came from the west over the surface of the whole earth, and didn’t touch the ground. The goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
6He came to the ram that had the two horns, which I saw standing before the river, and ran on him in the fury of his power.
7I saw him come close to the ram, and he was moved with anger against him, and struck the ram, and broke his two horns. There was no power in the ram to stand before him; but he cast him down to the ground and trampled on him. There was no one who could deliver the ram out of his hand.
8The male goat magnified himself exceedingly. When he was strong, the great horn was broken; and instead of it there came up four notable horns toward the four winds of the sky.
9Out of one of them came out a little horn which grew exceedingly great—toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious land.
10It grew great, even to the army of the sky; and it cast down some of the army and of the stars to the ground and trampled on them.
11Yes, it magnified itself, even to the prince of the army; and it took away from him the continual burnt offering, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
12The army was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering through disobedience. It cast down truth to the ground, and it did its pleasure and prospered.
13Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who spoke, “How long will the vision about the continual burnt offering, and the disobedience that makes desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the army to be trodden under foot be?”
14He said to me, “To two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings. Then the sanctuary will be cleansed.”
15When I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, I sought to understand it. Then behold, there stood before me someone with the appearance of a man.
16I heard a man’s voice between the banks of the Ulai, which called and said, “Gabriel, make this man understand the vision.”
17So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was frightened, and fell on my face; but he said to me, “Understand, son of man, for the vision belongs to the time of the end.”
18Now as he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep with my face toward the ground; but he touched me and set me upright.
19He said, “Behold, I will make you know what will be in the latter time of the indignation, for it belongs to the appointed time of the end.
20The ram which you saw, that had the two horns, they are the kings of Media and Persia.
21The rough male goat is the king of Greece. The great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.
22As for that which was broken, in the place where four stood up, four kingdoms will stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.
23“In the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have come to the full, a king of fierce face, and understanding riddles, will stand up.
24His power will be mighty, but not by his own power. He will destroy awesomely, and will prosper in what he does. He will destroy the mighty ones and the holy people.
25Through his policy he will cause deceit to prosper in his hand. He will magnify himself in his heart, and he will destroy many in their security. He will also stand up against the prince of princes, but he will be broken without human hands.
26“The vision of the evenings and mornings which has been told is true; but seal up the vision, for it belongs to many days to come.”
27I, Daniel, fainted, and was sick for some days. Then I rose up and did the king’s business. I wondered at the vision, but no one understood it.
