| 1. | 2. | 主 將 猶 大 王 約 雅 敬 ， 並 神 殿 中 器 皿 的 幾 分 交 付 他 手 。 他 就 把 這 器 皿 帶 到 示 拿 地 ， 收 入 他 神 的 廟 裡 ， 放 在 他 神 的 庫 中 。 | The Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, along with some of the vessels of the house of God; and he brought them to the land of Shinar, to the house of his god, and he brought the vessels into the treasury of his god. | And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, and a part of the vessels of the house of God; and he carried them into the land of Shinar, to the house of his god; and he brought the vessels into the treasure-house of his god. | and the Lord giveth into his hand Jehoiakim king of Judah, and some of the vessels of the house of God, and he bringeth them in [to] the land of Shinar, [to] the house of his god, and the vessels he hath brought in [to] the treasure-house of his god. |
| 1. | 3. | 王 吩 咐 太 監 長 亞 施 毗 拿 ， 從 以 色 列 人 的 宗 室 和 貴 冑 中 帶 進 幾 個 人 來 ， | Then the king ordered Ashpenaz, the chief of his officials, to bring in some of the sons of Israel, including some of the royal family and of the nobles, | And the king spoke unto Ashpenaz the chief of his eunuchs, that he should bring of the children of Israel, both of the royal seed and of the nobles, | And the king saith, to Ashpenaz master of his eunuchs, to bring in out of the sons of Israel, (even of the royal seed, and of the chiefs,) |
| 1. | 4. | 就 是 年 少 沒 有 殘 疾 、 相 貌 俊 美 、 通 達 各 樣 學 問 、 知 識 聰 明 俱 備 、 足 能 侍 立 在 王 宮 裡 的 ， 要 教 他 們 迦 勒 底 的 文 字 言 語 。 | youths in whom was no defect, who were good-looking, showing intelligence in every branch of wisdom, endowed with understanding and discerning knowledge, and who had ability for serving in the king's court; and he ordered him to teach them the literature and language of the Chaldeans. | youths in whom was no blemish, and of goodly countenance, and skilful in all wisdom, and acquainted with knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability in them to stand in the king's palace, and whom they might teach the learning and the language of the Chaldeans. | lads in whom there is no blemish, and of good appearance, and skilful in all wisdom, and possessing knowledge, and teaching thought, and who have ability to stand in the palace of the king, and to teach them the literature and language of the Chaldeans. |
| 1. | 5. | 王 派 定 將 自 己 所 用 的 膳 和 所 飲 的 酒 ， 每 日 賜 他 們 一 分 ， 養 他 們 三 年 。 滿 了 三 年 ， 好 叫 他 們 在 王 面 前 侍 立 。 | The king appointed for them a daily ration from the king's choice food and from the wine which he drank, and appointed that they should be educated three years, at the end of which they were to enter the king's personal service. | And the king appointed unto them a daily provision of the king's delicate food, and of the wine that he drank, to nourish them three years, that at the end thereof they might stand before the king. | And the king doth appoint for them a rate, day by day, of the king's portion of food, and of the wine of his drinking, so as to nourish them three years, that at the end thereof they may stand before the king. |
| 1. | 6. | 他 們 中 間 有 猶 大 族 的 人 ： 但 以 理 、 哈 拿 尼 雅 、 米 沙 利 、 亞 撒 利 雅 。 | Now among them from the sons of Judah were Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. | Now among these were of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. | And there are among them out of the sons of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, |
| 1. | 7. | 太 監 長 給 他 們 起 名 ： 稱 但 以 理 為 伯 提 沙 撒 ， 稱 哈 拿 尼 雅 為 沙 得 拉 ， 稱 米 沙 利 為 米 煞 ， 稱 亞 撒 利 雅 為 亞 伯 尼 歌 。 | Then the commander of the officials assigned new names to them; and to Daniel he assigned the nameBelteshazzar, to Hananiah Shadrach, to Mishael Meshach and to Azariah Abed-nego. | And the prince of the eunuchs gave them names: to Daniel he gave [the name] Belteshazzar, and to Hananiah, Shadrach, and to Mishael, Meshach, and to Azariah, Abed-nego. | and the chief of the eunuchs setteth names on them, and he setteth on Daniel, Belteshazzar; and on Hananiah, Shadrach; and on Mishael, Meshach; and on Azariah, Abed-Nego. |
| 1. | 8. | 但 以 理 卻 立 志 不 以 王 的 膳 和 王 所 飲 的 酒 玷 污 自 己 ， 所 以 求 太 監 長 容 他 不 玷 污 自 己 。 | But Daniel made up his mind that he would not defile himself with the king's choice food or with the wine which he drank; so he sought permission from the commander of the officials that he might not defile himself. | And Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not pollute himself with the king's delicate food, nor with the wine which he drank; and he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not have to pollute himself. | And Daniel purposeth in his heart that he will not pollute himself with the king's portion of food, and with the wine of his drinking, and he seeketh of the chief of the eunuchs that he may not pollute himself. |
| 1. | 9. | 神 使 但 以 理 在 太 監 長 眼 前 蒙 恩 惠 ， 受 憐 憫 。 | Now God granted Daniel favor and compassion in the sight of the commander of the officials, | And God granted Daniel favour and mercy before the prince of the eunuchs. | And God giveth Daniel for kindness and for mercies before the chief of the eunuchs; |
| 1. | 10. | 太 監 長 對 但 以 理 說 ： 我 懼 怕 我 主 我 王 ， 他 已 經 派 定 你 們 的 飲 食 ； 倘 若 他 見 你 們 的 面 貌 比 你 們 同 歲 的 少 年 人 肌 瘦 ， 怎 麼 好 呢 ？ 這 樣 ， 你 們 就 使 我 的 頭 在 王 那 裡 難 保 。 | and the commander of the officials said to Daniel, "I am afraid of my lord the king, who has appointed your food and your drink; for why should he see your faces looking more haggard than the youths who are your own age? Then you would make me forfeit my head to the king." | And the prince of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king who hath appointed your food and your drink; for why should he see your faces worse liking than the youths who are of your age? and ye would endanger my head with the king. | and the chief of the eunuchs saith to Daniel, `I am fearing my lord the king, who hath appointed your food and your drink, for why doth he see your faces sadder than [those of] the lads which [are] of your circle? then ye have made my head indebted to the king,' |
| 1. | 11. | 但 以 理 對 太 監 長 所 派 管 理 但 以 理 、 哈 拿 尼 雅 、 米 沙 利 、 亞 撒 利 雅 的 委 辦 說 ： | But Daniel said to the overseer whom the commander of the officials had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, | And Daniel said to the steward, whom the prince of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, | And Daniel saith unto the Meltzar, whom the chief of the eunuchs hath appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, |
| 1. | 12. | 求 你 試 試 僕 人 們 十 天 ， 給 我 們 素 菜 吃 ， 白 水 喝 ， | "Please test your servants for ten days, and let us be given some vegetables to eat and water to drink. | Prove thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us pulse to eat, and water to drink; | `Try, I pray thee, thy servants, ten days; and they give to us of the vegetables, and we eat, and water, and we drink; |
| 1. | 13. | 然 後 看 看 我 們 的 面 貌 和 用 王 膳 那 少 年 人 的 面 貌 ， 就 照 你 所 看 的 待 僕 人 罷 ！ | "Then let our appearance be observed in your presence and the appearance of the youths who are eating the king's choice food; and deal with your servants according to what you see." | then let our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the countenance of the youths that eat of the king's delicate food: and as thou shalt see, deal with thy servants. | and our appearance is seen before thee, and the appearance of the lads who are eating the king's portion of food, and as thou seest -- deal with thy servants.' |
| 1. | 14. | 委 辦 便 允 准 他 們 這 件 事 ， 試 看 他 們 十 天 。 | So he listened to them in this matter and tested them for ten days. | And he hearkened unto them in this matter, and proved them ten days. | And he hearkeneth to them, to this word, and trieth them ten days: |
| 1. | 15. | 過 了 十 天 ， 見 他 們 的 面 貌 比 用 王 膳 的 一 切 少 年 人 更 加 俊 美 肥 胖 。 | At the end of ten days their appearance seemed better and they were fatter than all the youths who had been eating the king's choice food. | And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and were fatter in flesh than all the youths that ate of the king's delicate food. | and at the end of ten days their appearance hath appeared better and fatter in flesh then any of the lads who are eating the king's portion of food. |
| 1. | 16. | 於 是 委 辦 撤 去 派 他 們 用 的 膳 ， 飲 的 酒 ， 給 他 們 素 菜 吃 。 | So the overseer continued to withhold their choice food and the wine they were to drink, and kept giving them vegetables. | So the steward took away their delicate food, and the wine that they should drink; and gave them pulse. | And the Meltzar is taking away their portion of food, and the wine of their drink, and is giving to them vegetables. |
| 1. | 17. | 這 四 個 少 年 人 ， 神 在 各 樣 文 字 學 問 （ 學 問 ： 原 文 是 智 慧 ） 上 賜 給 他 們 聰 明 知 識 ； 但 以 理 又 明 白 各 樣 的 異 象 和 夢 兆 。 | As for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and intelligence in everybranch of literature and wisdom; Daniel even understood all kinds of visions and dreams. | As for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams. | As to these four lads, God hath given to them knowledge and understanding in every [kind of] literature, and wisdom; and Daniel hath given instruction about every [kind of] vision and dreams. |
| 1. | 18. | 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 預 定 帶 進 少 年 人 來 的 日 期 滿 了 ， 太 監 長 就 把 他 們 帶 到 王 面 前 。 | Then at the end of the days which the king had specified for presenting them, the commander of the officials presented them before Nebuchadnezzar. | And at the end of the days that the king had said he should bring them in, the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar. | And at the end of the days that the king had said to bring them in, bring them in doth the chief of the eunuchs before Nebuchadnezzar. |
| 1. | 19. | 王 與 他 們 談 論 ， 見 少 年 人 中 無 一 人 能 比 但 以 理 、 哈 拿 尼 雅 、 米 沙 利 、 亞 撒 利 雅 ， 所 以 留 他 們 在 王 面 前 侍 立 。 | The king talked with them, and out of them all not one was found like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah; so they entered the king's personal service. | And the king spoke with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: and they stood before the king. | And the king speaketh with them, and there hath none been found among them all like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, and they stand before the king; |
| 1. | 20. | 王 考 問 他 們 一 切 事 ， 就 見 他 們 的 智 慧 聰 明 比 通 國 的 術 士 和 用 法 術 的 勝 過 十 倍 。 | As for every matter of wisdom and understanding about which the king consulted them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and conjurers who were in all his realm. | And in all matters of judicious wisdom, as to which the king enquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the scribes [and] magicians that were in all his realm. | and [in] any matter of wisdom [and] understanding that the king hath sought of them, he findeth them ten hands above all the scribes, the enchanters, who [are] in all his kingdom. |
| 1. | 21. | 到 古 列 王 元 年 ， 但 以 理 還 在 。 | And Daniel continued until the first year of Cyrus the king. | And Daniel continued unto the first year of king Cyrus. | And Daniel is unto the first year of Cyrus the king. |
| 2. | 1. | 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 在 位 第 二 年 ， 他 做 了 夢 ， 心 裡 煩 亂 ， 不 能 睡 覺 。 | Now in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams; and his spirit was troubled and his sleep left him. | And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, and his spirit was troubled, and his sleep went from him. | And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, dreamed hath Nebuchadnezzar dreams, and his spirit doth move itself, and his sleep hath been against him; |
| 2. | 2. | 王 吩 咐 人 將 術 士 、 用 法 術 的 、 行 邪 術 的 ， 和 迦 勒 底 人 召 來 ， 要 他 們 將 王 的 夢 告 訴 王 ， 他 們 就 來 站 在 王 前 。 | Then the king gave orders to call in the magicians, the conjurers, the sorcerers and the Chaldeans to tell the king his dreams. So they came in and stood before the king. | And the king commanded to call the scribes, and the magicians, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, to shew the king his dreams; and they came and stood before the king. | and the king saith to call for scribes, and for enchanters, and for sorcerers, and for Chaldeans, to declare to the king his dreams. And they come in and stand before the king; |
| 2. | 3. | 王 對 他 們 說 ： 我 做 了 一 夢 ， 心 裡 煩 亂 ， 要 知 道 這 是 甚 麼 夢 。 | The king said to them, "I had a dream and my spirit is anxious to understand the dream." | And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream. | and the king saith to them, `A dream I have dreamed, and moved is my spirit to know the dream.' |
| 2. | 4. | 迦 勒 底 人 用 亞 蘭 的 言 語 對 王 說 ： 願 王 萬 歲 ！ 請 將 那 夢 告 訴 僕 人 ， 僕 人 就 可 以 講 解 。 | Then the Chaldeans spoke to the king in Aramaic: "O king, live forever! Tell the dream to your servants, and we will declare the interpretation." | And the Chaldeans spoke to the king in Aramaic, O king, live for ever! tell thy servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation. | And the Chaldeans speak to the king [in] Aramaean, `O king, to the ages live, tell the dream to thy servants, and the interpretation we do shew.' |
| 2. | 5. | 王 回 答 迦 勒 底 人 說 ： 夢 我 已 經 忘 了 （ 或 譯 ： 我 已 定 命 ； 八 節 同 ） ， 你 們 若 不 將 夢 和 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 我 ， 就 必 被 凌 遲 ， 你 們 的 房 屋 必 成 為 糞 堆 ； | The king replied to the Chaldeans, "The command from me is firm: if you do not make known to me the dream and its interpretation, you will be torn limb from limb and your houses will be made a rubbish heap. | The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The command is gone forth from me: If ye do not make known unto me the dream, and its interpretation, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill. | The king hath answered and said to the Chaldeans, `The thing from me is gone; if ye do not cause me to know the dream and its interpretation, pieces ye are made, and your houses are made dunghills; |
| 2. | 6. | 你 們 若 將 夢 和 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 我 ， 就 必 從 我 這 裡 得 贈 品 和 賞 賜 ， 並 大 尊 榮 。 現 在 你 們 要 將 夢 和 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 我 。 | "But if you declare the dream and its interpretation, you will receive from me gifts and a reward and great honor; therefore declare to me the dream and its interpretation." | But if ye shew the dream and its interpretation, ye shall receive of me gifts and rewards and great honour; therefore shew me the dream and its interpretation. | and if the dream and its interpretation ye do shew, gifts, and fee, and great glory ye receive from before me, therefore the dream and its interpretation shew ye me.' |
| 2. | 7. | 他 們 第 二 次 對 王 說 ： 請 王 將 夢 告 訴 僕 人 ， 僕 人 就 可 以 講 解 。 | They answered a second time and said, "Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we will declare the interpretation." | They answered the second time and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation. | They have answered a second time, and are saying, `Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and the interpretation we do shew. |
| 2. | 8. | 王 回 答 說 ： 我 准 知 道 你 們 是 故 意 遲 延 ， 因 為 你 們 知 道 那 夢 我 已 經 忘 了 。 | The king replied, "I know for certain that you are bargaining for time, inasmuch as you have seen that the command from me is firm, | The king answered and said, I know of a certainty that ye would gain time, because ye see the word is gone forth from me; | The king hath answered and said, `Of a truth I know that time ye are gaining, because that ye have seen that the thing is gone from me, |
| 2. | 9. | 你 們 若 不 將 夢 告 訴 我 ， 只 有 一 法 待 你 們 ； 因 為 你 們 預 備 了 謊 言 亂 語 向 我 說 ， 要 等 候 時 勢 改 變 。 現 在 你 們 要 將 夢 告 訴 我 ， 因 我 知 道 你 們 能 將 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 我 。 | that if you do not make the dream known to me, there is only one decree for you. For you have agreed together to speak lying and corrupt words before me until the situation is changed; therefore tell me the dream, that I may know that you can declare to me its interpretation." | but if ye do not make known unto me the dream, there is but one decree for you; for ye have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, till the time be changed: therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that ye can shew me its interpretation. | [so] that, if the dream ye do not cause me to know -- one is your sentence, seeing a word lying and corrupt ye have prepared to speak before me, till that the time is changed, therefore the dream tell ye to me, then do I know that its interpretation ye do shew me.' |
| 2. | 10. | 迦 勒 底 人 在 王 面 前 回 答 說 ： 世 上 沒 有 人 能 將 王 所 問 的 事 說 出 來 ； 因 為 沒 有 君 王 、 大 臣 、 掌 權 的 向 術 士 ， 或 用 法 術 的 ， 或 迦 勒 底 人 問 過 這 樣 的 事 。 | The Chaldeans answered the king and said, "There is not a man on earth who could declare the matter for the king, inasmuch as no great king or ruler hasever asked anything like this of any magician, conjurer or Chaldean. | The Chaldeans answered before the king and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can shew the king's matter; therefore there is no king, however great and powerful, that hath asked such a thing of any scribe, or magician, or Chaldean. | The Chaldeans have answered before the king, and are saying, `There is not a man on the earth who is able to shew the king's matter; therefore, no king, chief, and ruler, hath asked such a thing as this of any scribe, and enchanter, and Chaldean; |
| 2. | 11. | 王 所 問 的 事 甚 難 。 除 了 不 與 世 人 同 居 的 神 明 ， 沒 有 人 在 王 面 前 能 說 出 來 。 | "Moreover, the thing which the king demands is difficult, and there is no one else who could declare it to the king except gods, whose dwelling place is not with mortal flesh." | For the thing that the king demandeth is extraordinary, and there is none other that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh. | and the thing that the king is asking [is] precious, and others are there not that do shew it before the king, save the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.' |
| 2. | 12. | 因 此 ， 王 氣 忿 忿 地 大 發 烈 怒 ， 吩 咐 滅 絕 巴 比 倫 所 有 的 哲 士 。 | Because of this the king became indignant and very furious and gave orders to destroy all the wise men of Babylon. | For this cause the king was irritated and very wroth, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon. | Therefore the king hath been angry and very wroth, and hath said to destroy all the wise men of Babylon; |
| 2. | 13. | 於 是 命 令 發 出 ， 哲 士 將 要 見 殺 ， 人 就 尋 找 但 以 理 和 他 的 同 伴 ， 要 殺 他 們 。 | So the decree went forth that the wise men should be slain; and they looked for Daniel and his friends to kill them. | And the decree went forth that the wise men were to be slain; and they sought Daniel and his companions to slay them. | And the sentence hath gone forth, and the wise men are being slain, and they have sought Daniel and his companions to be slain. |
| 2. | 14. | 王 的 護 衛 長 亞 略 出 來 ， 要 殺 巴 比 倫 的 哲 士 ， 但 以 理 就 用 婉 言 回 答 他 ， | Then Daniel replied with discretion and discernment to Arioch, the captain of the king's bodyguard, who had gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon; | Then Daniel answered with counsel and prudence to Arioch the chief of the king's bodyguard, who had gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon: | Then Daniel hath replied [with] counsel and discretion to Arioch chief of the executioners of the king, who hath gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon. |
| 2. | 15. | 向 王 的 護 衛 長 亞 略 說 ： 王 的 命 令 為 何 這 樣 緊 急 呢 ？ 亞 略 就 將 情 節 告 訴 但 以 理 。 | he said to Arioch, the king's commander, "For what reason is the decree from the king so urgent?" Then Arioch informed Daniel about the matter. | he answered and said to Arioch the king's captain, Why is the decree so rigorous from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel. | He hath answered and said to Arioch the king's captain, `Wherefore [is] the sentence so urgent from before the king?' Then Arioch hath made the thing known to Daniel, |
| 2. | 16. | 但 以 理 遂 進 去 求 王 寬 限 ， 就 可 以 將 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 王 。 | So Daniel went in and requested of the king that he would give him time, in order that he might declare the interpretation to the king. | And Daniel went in, and requested of the king that he would give him time, that he might shew the king the interpretation. | and Daniel hath gone up, and sought of the king that he would give him time to shew the interpretation to the king. |
| 2. | 17. | 但 以 理 回 到 他 的 居 所 ， 將 這 事 告 訴 他 的 同 伴 哈 拿 尼 雅 、 米 沙 利 、 亞 撒 利 雅 ， | Then Daniel went to his house and informed his friends, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, about the matter, | Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions; | Then Daniel to his house hath gone, and to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, he hath made the thing known, |
| 2. | 18. | 要 他 們 祈 求 天 上 的 神 施 憐 憫 ， 將 這 奧 秘 的 事 指 明 ， 免 得 但 以 理 和 他 的 同 伴 與 巴 比 倫 其 餘 的 哲 士 一 同 滅 亡 。 | so that they might request compassion from the God of heaven concerning this mystery, so that Daniel and his friends would not be destroyed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. | that they would desire mercies of the God of the heavens concerning this secret; that Daniel and his companions should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. | and to seek mercies from before the God of the heavens concerning this secret, that they destroy not Daniel and his companions with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. |
| 2. | 19. | 這 奧 秘 的 事 就 在 夜 間 異 象 中 給 但 以 理 顯 明 ， 但 以 理 便 稱 頌 天 上 的 神 。 | Then the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven; | Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of the heavens. | Then to Daniel, in a vision of the night, the secret hath been revealed. Then hath Daniel blessed the God of the heavens. |
| 2. | 20. | 但 以 理 說 ： 神 的 名 是 應 當 稱 頌 的 ！ 從 亙 古 直 到 永 遠 ， 因 為 智 慧 能 力 都 屬 乎 他 。 | Daniel said, "Let the name of God be blessed forever and ever, | Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever; For wisdom and might are his. | Daniel hath answered and said, `Let the name of God be blessed from age even unto age, for wisdom and might -- for they are His. |
| 2. | For wisdom and power belong to Him. |
| 2. | 21. | 他 改 變 時 候 、 日 期 ， 廢 王 ， 立 王 ， 將 智 慧 賜 與 智 慧 人 ， 將 知 識 賜 與 聰 明 人 。 | "It is He who changes the times and the epochs; | And it is he that changeth times and seasons; He deposeth kings, and setteth up kings; He giveth wisdom to the wise, And knowledge to them that know understanding. | And He is changing times and seasons, He is causing kings to pass away, and He is raising up kings; He is giving wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those possessing understanding. |
| 2. | He removes kings and establishes kings; |
| 2. | He gives wisdom to wise men |
| 2. | And knowledge to men of understanding. |
| 2. | 22. | 他 顯 明 深 奧 隱 秘 的 事 ， 知 道 暗 中 所 有 的 ， 光 明 也 與 他 同 居 。 | "It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things; | It is he that revealeth the deep and secret things; He knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him. | He is revealing deep and hidden things; He hath known what [is] in darkness, and light with Him hath dwelt. |
| 2. | He knows what is in the darkness, |
| 2. | And the light dwells with Him. |
| 2. | 23. | 我 列 祖 的 神 啊 ， 我 感 謝 你 ， 讚 美 你 ， 因 你 將 智 慧 才 能 賜 給 我 ， 允 准 我 們 所 求 的 ， 把 王 的 事 給 我 們 指 明 。 | "To You, O God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, | I thank thee, and I praise thee, O God of my fathers, Who hast given me wisdom and might, And hast made known unto me already what we desired of thee; For thou hast made known unto us the king's matter. | Thee, O God of my fathers, I am thanking and praising, for wisdom and might Thou hast given to me; and now, Thou hast caused me to know that which we have sought from Thee, for the king's matter Thou hast caused us to know.' |
| 2. | For You have given me wisdom and power; |
| 2. | Even now You have made known to me what we requested of You, |
| 2. | For You have made known to us the king's matter." |
| 2. | 24. | 於 是 ， 但 以 理 進 去 見 亞 略 ， 就 是 王 所 派 滅 絕 巴 比 倫 哲 士 的 ， 對 他 說 ： 不 要 滅 絕 巴 比 倫 的 哲 士 ， 求 你 領 我 到 王 面 前 ， 我 要 將 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 王 。 | Therefore, Daniel went in to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he went and spoke to him as follows: "Do not destroy the wise men of Babylon! Take me into the king's presence, and I will declare the interpretation to the king." | Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he went and said thus unto him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon; bring me in before the king, and I will shew unto the king the interpretation. | Therefore Daniel hath gone up unto Arioch, whom the king hath appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he hath gone, and thus hath said to him, `The wise men of Babylon thou dost not destroy, bring me up before the king, and the interpretation to the king I do shew.' |
| 2. | 25. | 亞 略 就 急 忙 將 但 以 理 領 到 王 面 前 ， 對 王 說 ： 我 在 被 擄 的 猶 大 人 中 遇 見 一 人 ， 他 能 將 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 王 。 | Then Arioch hurriedly brought Daniel into the king's presence and spoke to him as follows: "I have found a man among the exiles from Judah who can make the interpretation known to the king!" | Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him: I have found a man of the sons of the captivity of Judah that will make known unto the king the interpretation. | Then Arioch in haste hath brought up Daniel before the king, and thus hath said to him -- `I have found a man of the sons of the Removed of Judah, who the interpretation to the king doth make known.' |
| 2. | 26. | 王 問 稱 為 伯 提 沙 撒 的 但 以 理 說 ： 你 能 將 我 所 做 的 夢 和 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 我 麼 ？ | The king said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, "Are you able to make known to me the dream which I have seen and its interpretation?" | The king answered and said unto Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto me the dream that I have seen, and its interpretation? | The king hath answered and said to Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar, `Art thou able to cause me to know the dream that I have seen, and its interpretation?' |
| 2. | 27. | 但 以 理 在 王 面 前 回 答 說 ： 王 所 問 的 那 奧 秘 事 ， 哲 士 、 用 法 術 的 、 術 士 、 觀 兆 的 都 不 能 告 訴 王 ； | Daniel answered before the king and said, "As for the mystery about which the king has inquired, neither wise men, conjurers, magicians nor diviners are able to declareit to the king. | Daniel answered in the presence of the king and said, The secret that the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the magicians, the scribes, the astrologers, shew unto the king; | Daniel hath answered before the king and said, `The secret that the king is asking, the wise men, the enchanters, the scribes, the soothsayers, are not able to shew to the king; |
| 2. | 28. | 只 有 一 位 在 天 上 的 神 能 顯 明 奧 秘 的 事 。 他 已 將 日 後 必 有 的 事 指 示 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 。 你 的 夢 和 你 在 床 上 腦 中 的 異 象 是 這 樣 ： | "However, there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will take place in the latter days. This was your dream and the visions in your mind whileon your bed. | but there is a God in the heavens, who revealeth secrets, and maketh known to king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be at the end of days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed are these: | but there is a God in the heavens, a revealer of secrets, and He hath made known to king Nebuchadnezzar that which [is] to be in the latter end of the days. `Thy dream and the visions of thy head on thy bed are these: |
| 2. | 29. | 王 啊 ， 你 在 床 上 想 到 後 來 的 事 ， 那 顯 明 奧 祕 事 的 主 把 將 來 必 有 的 事 指 示 你 。 | "As for you, O king, while on your bed your thoughts turned to what would take place in the future; and He who reveals mysteries has made known to you what will take place. | -- as for thee, O king, thy thoughts arose upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter; and he that revealeth secrets hath made known to thee what shall come to pass. | Thou, O king, thy thoughts on thy bed have come up [concerning] that which [is] to be after this, and the Revealer of secrets hath caused thee to know that which [is] to be. |
| 2. | 30. | 至 於 那 奧 祕 的 事 顯 明 給 我 ， 並 非 因 我 的 智 慧 勝 過 一 切 活 人 ， 乃 為 使 王 知 道 夢 的 講 解 和 心 裡 的 思 念 。 | "But as for me, this mystery has not been revealed to me for any wisdom residing in me more than in any other living man, but for the purpose of making the interpretation known to the king, and that you may understand the thoughts of your mind. | And as for me, this secret is revealed to me, not by [any] wisdom that I have more than any living, but to the intent that the interpretation should be made known to the king, and that thou mightest know the thoughts of thy heart. | As to me -- not for [any] wisdom that is in me above any living hath this secret been revealed to me; but for the intent that the interpretation to the king they make known, and the thoughts of thy heart thou dost know. |
| 2. | 31. | 王 啊 ， 你 夢 見 一 個 大 像 ， 這 像 甚 高 ， 極 其 光 耀 ， 站 在 你 面 前 ， 形 狀 甚 是 可 怕 。 | "You, O king, were looking and behold, there was a single great statue; that statue, which was large and of extraordinary splendor, was standing in front of you, and its appearance was awesome. | Thou, O king, sawest, and behold, a great image. This image was mighty and its brightness excellent; it stood before thee, and its appearance was terrible. | `Thou, O king, wast looking, and lo, a certain great image. This image [is] mighty, and its brightness excellent; it is standing over-against thee, and its appearance [is] terrible. |
| 2. | 32. | 這 像 的 頭 是 精 金 的 ， 胸 膛 和 膀 臂 是 銀 的 ， 肚 腹 和 腰 是 銅 的 ， | "The head of that statue was made of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze, | This image's head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass, | This image! its head [is] of good gold, its breasts and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass; |
| 2. | 33. | 腿 是 鐵 的 ， 腳 是 半 鐵 半 泥 的 。 | its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay. | its legs of iron, its feet part of iron and part of clay. | its legs of iron, its feet, part of them of iron, and part of them of clay. |
| 2. | 34. | 你 觀 看 ， 見 有 一 塊 非 人 手 鑿 出 來 的 石 頭 打 在 這 像 半 鐵 半 泥 的 腳 上 ， 把 腳 砸 碎 ； | "You continued looking until a stone was cut out without hands, and it struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and crushed them. | Thou sawest till a stone was cut out without hands; and it smote the image upon its feet of iron and clay, and broke them to pieces. | Thou wast looking till that a stone hath been cut out without hands, and it hath smitten the image on its feet, that [are] of iron and of clay, and it hath broken them small; |
| 2. | 35. | 於 是 金 、 銀 、 銅 、 鐵 、 泥 都 一 同 砸 得 粉 碎 ， 成 如 夏 天 禾 場 上 的 糠 秕 ， 被 風 吹 散 ， 無 處 可 尋 。 打 碎 這 像 的 石 頭 變 成 一 座 大 山 ， 充 滿 天 下 。 | "Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were crushed all at the same time and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them was found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth. | Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken in pieces together, and they became like the chaff of the summer threshing-floors; and the wind carried them away, and no place was found for them. And the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. | then broken small together have been the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, and they have been as chaff from the summer threshing-floor, and carried them away hath the wind, and no place hath been found for them: and the stone that smote the image hath become a great mountain, and hath filled all the land. |
| 2. | 36. | 這 就 是 那 夢 。 我 們 在 王 面 前 要 講 解 那 夢 。 | "This was the dream; now we will tell its interpretation before the king. | This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation of it before the king. | This [is] the dream, and its interpretation we do tell before the king. |
| 2. | 37. | 王 啊 ， 你 是 諸 王 之 王 。 天 上 的 神 已 將 國 度 、 權 柄 、 能 力 、 尊 榮 都 賜 給 你 。 | "You, O king, are the king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given the kingdom, the power, the strength and the glory; | Thou, O king, art a king of kings, unto whom the God of the heavens hath given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the glory; | `Thou, O king, art a king of kings, for the God of the heavens a kingdom, strength, and might, and glory, hath given to thee; |
| 2. | 38. | 凡 世 人 所 住 之 地 的 走 獸 ， 並 天 空 的 飛 鳥 ， 他 都 交 付 你 手 ， 使 你 掌 管 這 一 切 。 你 就 是 那 金 頭 。 | and wherever the sons of men dwell, orthe beasts of the field, or the birds of the sky, He has given them into your hand and has caused you to rule over them all. You are the head of gold. | and wheresoever the children of men, the beasts of the field, and the fowl of the heavens dwell, he hath given them into thy hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all: thou art this head of gold. | and whithersoever sons of men are dwelling, the beast of the field, and the fowl of the heavens, He hath given into thy hand, and hath caused thee to rule over them all; thou [art] this head of gold. |
| 2. | 39. | 在 你 以 後 必 另 興 一 國 ， 不 及 於 你 ； 又 有 第 三 國 ， 就 是 銅 的 ， 必 掌 管 天 下 。 | "After you there will arise another kingdom inferior to you, then another third kingdom of bronze, which will rule over all the earth. | And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee; then another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth. | And after thee doth rise up another kingdom lower than those, and another third kingdom of brass, that doth rule overall the earth. |
| 2. | 40. | 第 四 國 ， 必 堅 壯 如 鐵 ， 鐵 能 打 碎 剋 制 百 物 ， 又 能 壓 碎 一 切 ， 那 國 也 必 打 碎 壓 制 列 國 。 | "Then there will be a fourth kingdom as strong as iron; inasmuch as iron crushes and shatters all things, so, like iron that breaks in pieces, it will crush and break all these in pieces. | And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth everything, and as iron that breaketh all these, so shall it break in pieces and bruise. | And the fourth kingdom is strong as iron, because that iron is breaking small, and making feeble, all [things], even as iron that is breaking all these, it beateth small and breaketh. |
| 2. | 41. | 你 既 見 像 的 腳 和 腳 指 頭 ， 一 半 是 窯 匠 的 泥 ， 一 半 是 鐵 ， 那 國 將 來 也 必 分 開 。 你 既 見 鐵 與 泥 攙 雜 ， 那 國 也 必 有 鐵 的 力 量 。 | "In that you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter's clay and partly of iron, it will be a divided kingdom; but it will have in it the toughness of iron, inasmuch as you saw the iron mixed with common clay. | And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potter's clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. | As to that which thou hast seen: the feet and toes, part of them potter's clay, and part of them iron, the kingdom is divided: and some of the standing of the iron [is] to be in it, because that thou hast seen the iron mixed with miry clay. |
| 2. | 42. | 那 腳 指 頭 ， 既 是 半 鐵 半 泥 ， 那 國 也 必 半 強 半 弱 。 | "As the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of pottery, so some of the kingdom will be strong and part of it will be brittle. | And [as] the toes of the feet were part of iron and part of clay, the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. | As to the toes of the feet, part of them iron, and part of them clay: some part of the kingdom is strong, and some part of it is brittle. |
| 2. | 43. | 你 既 見 鐵 與 泥 攙 雜 ， 那 國 民 也 必 與 各 種 人 攙 雜 ， 卻 不 能 彼 此 相 合 ， 正 如 鐵 與 泥 不 能 相 合 一 樣 。 | "And in that you saw the iron mixed with common clay, they will combine with one another in the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, even as iron does not combine with pottery. | And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men; but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron doth not mingle with clay. | Because thou hast seen iron mixed with miry clay, they are mixing themselves with the seed of men: and they are not adhering one with another, even as iron is not mixed with clay. |
| 2. | 44. | 當 那 列 王 在 位 的 時 候 ， 天 上 的 神 必 另 立 一 國 ， 永 不 敗 壞 ， 也 不 歸 別 國 的 人 ， 卻 要 打 碎 滅 絕 那 一 切 國 ， 這 國 必 存 到 永 遠 。 | "In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which will never be destroyed, and that kingdom will not be left for another people; it will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, but it will itself endure forever. | And in the days of these kings shall the God of the heavens set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the sovereignty thereof shall not be left to another people: it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, but itself shall stand for ever. | `And in the days of these kings raise up doth the God of the heavens a kingdom that is not destroyed -- to the age, and its kingdom to another people is not left: it beateth small and endeth all these kingdoms, and it standeth to the age. |
| 2. | 45. | 你 既 看 見 非 人 手 鑿 出 來 的 一 塊 石 頭 從 山 而 出 ， 打 碎 金 、 銀 、 銅 、 鐵 、 泥 ， 那 就 是 至 大 的 神 把 後 來 必 有 的 事 給 王 指 明 。 這 夢 準 是 這 樣 ， 這 講 解 也 是 確 實 的 。 | "Inasmuch as you saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands and that it crushed the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold, the great God has made known to the king what will take place in the future; so the dream is true and its interpretation is trustworthy." | Forasmuch as thou sawest that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold, -- the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter. And the dream is certain, and the interpretation of it sure. | Because that thou hast seen that out of the mountain cut hath been a stone without hands, and it hath beaten small the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king that which [is] to be after this; and the dream [is] true, and its interpretation stedfast. |
| 2. | 46. | 當 時 ， 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 俯 伏 在 地 ， 向 但 以 理 下 拜 ， 並 且 吩 咐 人 給 他 奉 上 供 物 和 香 品 。 | Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face and did homage to Daniel, and gave orders to present to him an offering and fragrant incense. | Then king Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odours unto him. | Then hath king Nebuchadnezzar fallen on his face, and to Daniel he hath done obeisance, and present, and sweet things, he hath said to pour out to him. |
| 2. | 47. | 王 對 但 以 理 說 ： 你 既 能 顯 明 這 奧 祕 的 事 ， 你 們 的 神 誠 然 是 萬 神 之 神 、 萬 王 之 主 ， 又 是 顯 明 奧 祕 事 的 。 | The king answered Daniel and said, "Surely your God is a God of gods and a Lord of kings and a revealer of mysteries, since you have been able to reveal this mystery." | The king answered Daniel and said, Of a truth it is that your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, because thou wast able to reveal this secret. | The king hath answered Daniel and said, `Of a truth [it is] that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since thou hast been able to reveal this secret.' |
| 2. | 48. | 於 是 王 高 抬 但 以 理 ， 賞 賜 他 許 多 上 等 禮 物 ， 派 他 管 理 巴 比 倫 全 省 ， 又 立 他 為 總 理 ， 掌 管 巴 比 倫 的 一 切 哲 士 。 | Then the king promoted Daniel and gave him many great gifts, and he made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon and chief prefect over all the wise men of Babylon. | Then the king made Daniel great, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon. | Then the king hath made Daniel great, and many great gifts he hath given to him, and hath caused him to rule over all the province of Babylon, and chief of the perfects over all the wise men of Babylon. |
| 2. | 49. | 但 以 理 求 王 ， 王 就 派 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 管 理 巴 比 倫 省 的 事 務 ， 只 是 但 以 理 常 在 朝 中 侍 立 。 | And Daniel made request of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego over the administration of the province of Babylon, while Daniel was at the king's court. | And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego over the administration of the province of Babylon. And Daniel was in the gate of the king. | And Daniel hath sought from the king, and he hath appointed over the work of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, and Daniel [is] in the gate of the king. |
| 3. | 1. | 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 造 了 一 個 金 像 ， 高 六 十 肘 ， 寬 六 肘 ， 立 在 巴 比 倫 省 杜 拉 平 原 。 | Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, the height of which was sixty cubits and its width six cubits; he set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon. | Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits, [and] its breadth six cubits; he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon. | Nebuchadnezzar the king hath made an image of gold, its height sixty cubits, its breadth six cubits; he hath raised it up in the valley of Dura, in the province of Babylon; |
| 3. | 2. | 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 差 人 將 總 督 、 欽 差 、 巡 撫 、 臬 司 、 藩 司 、 謀 士 、 法 官 ， 和 各 省 的 官 員 都 召 了 來 ， 為 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 所 立 的 像 行 開 光 之 禮 。 | Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent wordto assemble the satraps, the prefects and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates and all the rulers of the provinces to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. | And Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the justices, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. | and Nebuchadnezzar the king hath sent to gather the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the honourable judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the province, to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up. |
| 3. | 3. | 於 是 總 督 、 欽 差 、 巡 撫 、 臬 司 、 藩 司 、 謀 士 、 法 官 ， 和 各 省 的 官 員 都 聚 集 了 來 ， 要 為 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 所 立 的 像 行 開 光 之 禮 ， 就 站 在 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 所 立 的 像 前 。 | Then the satraps, the prefects and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates and all the rulers of the provinces were assembled for the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. | Then the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the justices, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. | Then are gathered the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the honourable judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the province, to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up: and they are standing before the image that Nebuchadnezzar hath raised up. |
| 3. | 4. | 那 時 傳 令 的 大 聲 呼 叫 說 ： 各 方 、 各 國 、 各 族 （ 原 文 是 舌 ： 下 同 ） 的 人 哪 ， 有 令 傳 與 你 們 ： | Then the herald loudly proclaimed: "To you the command is given, O peoples, nations and men of every language, | And the herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, [O] peoples, nations, and languages, | And a crier is calling mightily: `To you they are saying: O peoples, nations, and languages! |
| 3. | 5. | 你 們 一 聽 見 角 、 笛 、 琵 琶 、 琴 、 瑟 、 笙 ， 和 各 樣 樂 器 的 聲 音 ， 就 當 俯 伏 敬 拜 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 所 立 的 金 像 。 | that at the moment you hear the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe and all kinds of music, you are to fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has set up. | that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, bagpipe, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up; | at the time that ye hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, the symphony, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and do obeisance to the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up: |
| 3. | 6. | 凡 不 俯 伏 敬 拜 的 ， 必 立 時 扔 在 烈 火 的 窯 中 。 | "But whoever does not fall down and worship shall immediately be cast into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire." | and whosoever doth not fall down and worship shall that same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. | and whoso doth not fall down and do obeisance, in that hour he is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.' |
| 3. | 7. | 因 此 各 方 、 各 國 、 各 族 的 人 民 一 聽 見 角 、 笛 、 琵 琶 、 琴 、 瑟 ， 和 各 樣 樂 器 的 聲 音 ， 就 都 俯 伏 敬 拜 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 所 立 的 金 像 。 | Therefore at that time, when all the peoples heard the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe and all kinds of music, all the peoples, nations and men of every language fell down andworshiped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. | Therefore at that time when all the peoples heard the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the peoples, the nations, and the languages fell down [and] worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. | Therefore at that time, when all the peoples are hearing the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and all kinds of music, falling down are all the peoples, nations and languages, doing obeisance to the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up. |
| 3. | 8. | 那 時 ， 有 幾 個 迦 勒 底 人 進 前 來 控 告 猶 大 人 。 | For this reason at that time certain Chaldeans came forward and brought charges against the Jews. | Whereupon at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews. | Therefore at that time drawn near have certain Chaldeans, and accused the Jews; |
| 3. | 9. | 他 們 對 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 說 ： 願 王 萬 歲 ！ | They responded and said to Nebuchadnezzar the king: "O king, live forever! | They spoke and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever! | they have answered, yea, they are saying to Nebuchadnezzar the king, `O king, to the ages live! |
| 3. | 10. | 王 啊 ， 你 曾 降 旨 說 ， 凡 聽 見 角 、 笛 、 琵 琶 、 琴 、 瑟 、 笙 ， 和 各 樣 樂 器 聲 音 的 都 當 俯 伏 敬 拜 金 像 。 | "You, O king, have made a decree that every man who hears the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery, and bagpipe and all kinds of music, is to fall down and worship the golden image. | Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image; | Thou, O king, hast made a decree that every man who doth hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, doth fall down and do obeisance to the golden image; |
| 3. | 11. | 凡 不 俯 伏 敬 拜 的 ， 必 扔 在 烈 火 的 窯 中 。 | "But whoever does not fall down and worship shall be cast into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire. | and [that] whosoever doth not fall down and worship, shall be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. | and whoso doth not fall down and do obeisance, is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. |
| 3. | 12. | 現 在 有 幾 個 猶 大 人 ， 就 是 王 所 派 管 理 巴 比 倫 省 事 務 的 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 ； 王 啊 ， 這 些 人 不 理 你 ， 不 事 奉 你 的 神 ， 也 不 敬 拜 你 所 立 的 金 像 。 | "There are certain Jews whom you have appointed over the administration of the province of Babylon, namely Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego. These men, O king, have disregarded you; they do not serve your gods or worship the golden image which you have set up." | There are certain Jews whom thou hast appointed over the administration of the province of Babylon: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: these men, O king, regard thee not; they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image that thou hast set up. | There are certain Jews whom thou hast appointed over the work of the province of Babylon -- Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, these men have not made of thee, O king, [any] regard; thy gods they are not serving, and to the golden image thou hast raised up -- are not making obeisance.' |
| 3. | 13. | 當 時 ， 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 沖 沖 大 怒 ， 吩 咐 人 把 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 帶 過 來 ， 他 們 就 把 那 些 人 帶 到 王 面 前 。 | Then Nebuchadnezzar in rage and anger gave orders to bring Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego; then these men were brought before the king. | Then Nebuchadnezzar in rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then were these men brought before the king. | Then Nebuchadnezzar, in anger and fury, hath said to bring in Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. Then these men have been brought in before the king. |
| 3. | 14. | 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 問 他 們 說 ： 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 ， 你 們 不 事 奉 我 的 神 ， 也 不 敬 拜 我 所 立 的 金 像 ， 是 故 意 的 麼 ？ | Nebuchadnezzar responded and said to them, "Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden image that I have set up? | Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said unto them, Is it of purpose, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, that ye serve not my god, nor worship the golden image that I have set up? | Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and said to them, `Is [it] a laid plan, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego -- my gods ye are not serving, and to the golden image that I have raised up ye are not doing obeisance? |
| 3. | 15. | 你 們 再 聽 見 角 、 笛 、 琵 琶 、 琴 、 瑟 、 笙 ， 和 各 樣 樂 器 的 聲 音 ， 若 俯 伏 敬 拜 我 所 造 的 像 ， 卻 還 可 以 ； 若 不 敬 拜 ， 必 立 時 扔 在 烈 火 的 窯 中 ， 有 何 神 能 救 你 們 脫 離 我 手 呢 ？ | "Now if you are ready, at the moment you hear the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery and bagpipe and all kinds of music, to fall down and worship the image that I have made, very well. But if you do not worship, you will immediately be cast into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire; and what god is there who can deliver you out of my hands?" | Now if ye be ready at the time that ye hear the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, to fall down and worship the image that I have made, [well]: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast that same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hands? | Now, lo, ye are ready, so that at the time that ye hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and do obeisance to the image that I have made! -- and lo, ye do no obeisance -- in that hour ye are cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; who is that God who doth deliver you out of my hands?' |
| 3. | 16. | 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 對 王 說 ： 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 啊 ， 這 件 事 我 們 不 必 回 答 你 ； | Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego replied to the king, "O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to give you an answer concerning this matter. | Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee in this matter. | Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego have answered, yea, they are saying to the king Nebuchadnezzar, `We have no need concerning this matter to answer thee. |
| 3. | 17. | 即 便 如 此 ， 我 們 所 事 奉 的 神 能 將 我 們 從 烈 火 的 窯 中 救 出 來 。 王 啊 ， 他 也 必 救 我 們 脫 離 你 的 手 ； | "If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire; and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king. | If it be [so], our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver [us] out of thy hand, O king. | Lo, it is; our God whom we are serving, is able to deliver us from a burning fiery furnace; and from thy hand, O king, He doth deliver. |
| 3. | 18. | 即 或 不 然 ， 王 啊 ， 你 當 知 道 我 們 決 不 事 奉 你 的 神 ， 也 不 敬 拜 你 所 立 的 金 像 。 | "But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we are not going to serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up." | But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image that thou hast set up. | And lo -- not! be it known to thee, O king, that thy gods we are not serving, and to the golden image thou hast raised up we do no obeisance.' |
| 3. | 19. | 當 時 ， 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 怒 氣 填 胸 ， 向 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 變 了 臉 色 ， 吩 咐 人 把 窯 燒 熱 ， 比 尋 常 更 加 七 倍 ； | Then Nebuchadnezzar was filled with wrath, and his facial expression was altered toward Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego. He answered by giving orders to heat the furnace seven times more than it was usually heated. | Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. He spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was wont to be heated. | Then Nebuchadnezzar hath been full of fury, and the expression of his face hath been changed concerning Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego; he answered and said to heat the furnace seven times above that which it is seen to be heated; |
| 3. | 20. | 又 吩 咐 他 軍 中 的 幾 個 壯 士 ， 將 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 捆 起 來 ， 扔 在 烈 火 的 窯 中 。 | He commanded certain valiant warriors who were in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego in order to castthem into the furnace of blazing fire. | And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, and cast them into the burning fiery furnace. | and to certain mighty men who [are] in his force he hath said to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to cast into the burning fiery furnace. |
| 3. | 21. | 這 三 人 穿 著 褲 子 、 內 袍 、 外 衣 ， 和 別 的 衣 服 ， 被 捆 起 來 扔 在 烈 火 的 窯 中 。 | Then these men were tied up in their trousers, their coats, their caps and theirother clothes, and were cast into the midst of the furnace of blazing fire. | Then these men were bound in their hosen, their tunics, and their cloaks, and their garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. | Then these men have been bound in their coats, their tunics, and their turbans, and their clothing, and have been cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. |
| 3. | 22. | 因 為 王 命 緊 急 ， 窯 又 甚 熱 ， 那 抬 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 的 人 都 被 火 燄 燒 死 。 | For this reason, because the king's command was urgent and the furnace had been made extremely hot, the flame of the fire slew those men who carried up Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego. | Forasmuch as the king's commandment was rigorous, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that had taken up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. | Therefore, because that the word of the king is urgent, and the furnace heated exceedingly, those men who have taken up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego -- killed them hath the spark of the fire. |
| 3. | 23. | 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 這 三 個 人 都 被 捆 著 落 在 烈 火 的 窯 中 。 | But these three men, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego, fell into the midst of the furnace of blazing fire still tied up. | And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. | And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, have fallen down in the midst of the burning fiery furnace -- bound. |
| 3. | 24. | 那 時 ， 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 驚 奇 ， 急 忙 起 來 ， 對 謀 士 說 ： 我 捆 起 來 扔 在 火 裡 的 不 是 三 個 人 麼 ？ 他 們 回 答 王 說 ： 王 啊 ， 是 。 | Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astounded and stood up in haste; he said to his high officials, "Was it not three men we cast bound into the midst of the fire?" They replied to the king, "Certainly, O king." | Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste; he spoke and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said to the king, True, O king. | Then Nebuchadnezzar the king hath been astonished, and hath risen in haste; he hath answered and said to his counsellors, `Have we not cast three men into the midst of the fire -- bound?' They have answered and are saying to the king, `Certainly, O king.' |
| 3. | 25. | 王 說 ： 看 哪 ， 我 見 有 四 個 人 ， 並 沒 有 捆 綁 ， 在 火 中 遊 行 ， 也 沒 有 受 傷 ； 那 第 四 個 的 相 貌 好 像 神 子 。 | He said, "Look! I see four men loosed andwalking about in the midst of the fire without harm, and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods!" | He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of God. | He answered and hath said, `Lo, I am seeing four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the appearance of the fourth [is] like to a son of the gods.' |
| 3. | 26. | 於 是 ， 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 就 近 烈 火 窯 門 ， 說 ： 至 高 神 的 僕 人 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 出 來 ， 上 這 裡 來 罷 ！ 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 就 從 火 中 出 來 了 。 | Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the door of the furnace of blazing fire; he responded and said, "Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego, come out, you servants of the Most High God, and come here!" Then Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego came out of the midst of the fire. | Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the opening of the burning fiery furnace; he spoke and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the Most High God, come forth, and come [hither]. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego came forth from the midst of the fire. | Then Nebuchadnezzar hath drawn near to the gate of the burning fiery furnace; he hath answered and said, `Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, servants of God Most High come forth, yea, come;' then come forth do Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, from the midst of the fire; |
| 3. | 27. | 那 些 總 督 、 欽 差 、 巡 撫 ， 和 王 的 謀 士 一 同 聚 集 看 這 三 個 人 ， 見 火 無 力 傷 他 們 的 身 體 ， 頭 髮 也 沒 有 燒 焦 ， 衣 裳 也 沒 有 變 色 ， 並 沒 有 火 燎 的 氣 味 。 | The satraps, the prefects, the governors and the king's high officials gathered around and saw in regard to these men that the fire had no effect on the bodies of these men nor was the hair of their head singed, nor were their trousers damaged, nor had the smell of fire even come upon them. | And the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had had no power, nor was the hair of their head singed, neither were their hosen changed, nor had the smell of fire passed on them. | and gathered together, the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, and the counsellors of the king, are seeing these men, that the fire hath no power over their bodies, and the hair of their head hath not been singed, and their coats have not changed, and the smell of fire hath not passed on them. |
| 3. | 28. | 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 說 ： 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 的 神 是 應 當 稱 頌 的 ！ 他 差 遣 使 者 救 護 倚 靠 他 的 僕 人 ， 他 們 不 遵 王 命 ， 捨 去 己 身 ， 在 他 們 神 以 外 不 肯 事 奉 敬 拜 別 神 。 | Nebuchadnezzar responded and said, "Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego, who has sent His angel and delivered His servants who put their trust in Him, violating the king's command, and yielded up their bodies so as not to serve or worship any god except their own God. | Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants who trusted in him, and who changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God! | Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and hath said, `Blessed [is] the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who hath sent His messenger, and hath delivered His servants who trusted on Him, and the word of the king changed, and gave up their bodies that they might not serve nor do obeisance to any god except to their own God. |
| 3. | 29. | 現 在 我 降 旨 ， 無 論 何 方 、 何 國 、 何 族 的 人 ， 謗 讟 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 之 神 的 ， 必 被 凌 遲 ， 他 的 房 屋 必 成 糞 堆 ， 因 為 沒 有 別 神 能 這 樣 施 行 拯 救 。 | "Therefore I make a decree that any people, nation or tongue that speaks anything offensive against the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego shall be torn limb from limb and their houses reduced to a rubbish heap, inasmuch as there is no other god who is able to deliver in this way." | Therefore I make a decree, that in every people, nation, and language, he who shall speak anything amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and his house shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that is able to deliver after this sort. | And by me a decree is made, that any people, nation, and language, that doth speak erroneously concerning the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, pieces he is made, and its house is made a dunghill, because that there is no other god who is able thus to deliver.' |
| 3. | 30. | 那 時 王 在 巴 比 倫 省 ， 高 升 了 沙 得 拉 、 米 煞 、 亞 伯 尼 歌 。 | Then the king caused Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego to prosper in the province of Babylon. | Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego in the province of Babylon. | Then the king hath caused Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to prosper in the province of Babylon. |
| 4. | 1. | 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 曉 諭 住 在 全 地 各 方 、 各 國 、 各 族 的 人 說 ： 願 你 們 大 享 平 安 ！ | Nebuchadnezzar the king to all the peoples, nations, and men of everylanguage that live in all the earth: "May your peace abound! | Nebuchadnezzar the king unto all the peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you. | `Nebuchadnezzar the king to all peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the earth: Your peace be great! |
| 4. | 2. | 我 樂 意 將 至 高 的 神 向 我 所 行 的 神 蹟 奇 事 宣 揚 出 來 。 | "It has seemed good to me to declare the signs and wonders which the Most High God has done for me. | It hath seemed good unto me to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God hath wrought toward me. | The signs and wonders that God Most High hath done with me, it is good before me to shew. |
| 4. | 3. | 他 的 神 蹟 何 其 大 ！ 他 的 奇 事 何 其 盛 ！ 他 的 國 是 永 遠 的 ； 他 的 權 柄 存 到 萬 代 ！ | "How great are His signs | How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation. | His signs how great! and His wonders how mighty!

| 4. | And how mighty are His wonders! |
| 4. | His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom |
| 4. | And His dominion is from generation to generation. |
| 4. | 4. | 我 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 安 居 在 宮 中 ， 平 順 在 殿 內 。 | "I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at ease in my house and flourishing in my palace. | I Nebuchadnezzar was at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace. | `I, Nebuchadnezzar, have been at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace: |
| 4. | 5. | 我 做 了 一 夢 ， 使 我 懼 怕 。 我 在 床 上 的 思 念 ， 並 腦 中 的 異 象 ， 使 我 驚 惶 。 | "I saw a dream and it made me fearful; and these fantasies as I lay on my bed and the visions in my mind kept alarming me. | I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me. | a dream I have seen, and it maketh me afraid, and the conceptions on my bed, and the visions of my head, do trouble me. |
| 4. | 6. | 所 以 我 降 旨 召 巴 比 倫 的 一 切 哲 士 到 我 面 前 ， 叫 他 們 把 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 我 。 | "So I gave orders to bring into my presence all the wise men of Babylon, that they might make known to me the interpretation of the dream. | And I made a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream. | And by me a decree is made, to cause all the wise men of Babylon to come up before me, that the interpretation of the dream they may cause me to know. |
| 4. | 7. | 於 是 那 些 術 士 、 用 法 術 的 、 迦 勒 底 人 、 觀 兆 的 都 進 來 ， 我 將 那 夢 告 訴 了 他 們 ， 他 們 卻 不 能 把 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 我 。 | "Then the magicians, the conjurers, the Chaldeans and the diviners came in and I related the dream to them, but they could not make its interpretation known to me. | Then came in the scribes, the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers; and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation of it. | Then coming up are the scribes, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers, and the dream I have told before them, and its interpretation they are not making known to me. |
| 4. | 8. | 末 後 那 照 我 神 的 名 ， 稱 為 伯 提 沙 撒 的 但 以 理 來 到 我 面 前 ， 他 裡 頭 有 聖 神 的 靈 ， 我 將 夢 告 訴 他 說 ： | "But finally Daniel came in before me, whose name is Belteshazzar according to the name of my god, and in whom is a spirit of the holy gods; and I related the dream to him, saying, | But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name is Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and before him I told the dream: | And at last come up before me hath Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar -- according to the name of my god -- and in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods, and the dream before him I have told: |

| 4. | 10. | 我 在 床 上 腦 中 的 異 象 是 這 樣 ： 我 看 見 地 當 中 有 一 棵 樹 ， 極 其 高 大 。 | `Now these were the visions in my mindas I lay on my bed: I was looking, and behold, there was a tree in the midst of the earth and its height was great. | Thus were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height was great. | As to the visions of my head on my bed, I was looking, and lo, a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height [is] great: |
| 4. | 11. | 那 樹 漸 長 ， 而 且 堅 固 ， 高 得 頂 天 ， 從 地 極 都 能 看 見 ， | `The tree grew large and became strong | The tree grew, and was strong, and its height reached unto the heavens, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth. | become great hath the tree, yea, strong, and its height doth reach to the heavens, and its vision to the end of the whole land; |

| 4. | 12. | 葉 子 華 美 ， 果 子 甚 多 ， 可 作 眾 生 的 食 物 ； 田 野 的 走 獸 臥 在 蔭 下 ， 天 空 的 飛 鳥 宿 在 枝 上 ； 凡 有 血 氣 的 都 從 這 樹 得 食 。 | `Its foliage was beautiful and its fruit abundant, | Its leaves were beautiful, and its fruit abundant, and in it was food for all: the beasts of the field found shade under it, and the birds of the heavens dwelt in its branches, and all flesh was fed from it. | its leaves [are] fair, and its budding great, and food for all [is] in it: under it take shade doth the beast of the field, and in its boughs dwell do the birds of the heavens, and of it fed are all flesh. |
| 4. | And in it was food for all. |
| 4. | The beasts of the field found shade under it, |
| 4. | And the birds of the sky dwelt in its branches, |
| 4. | And all living creatures fed themselves from it. |
| 4. | 13. | 我 在 床 上 腦 中 的 異 象 ， 見 有 一 位 守 望 的 聖 者 從 天 而 降 。 | `I was looking in the visions in my mind as I lay on my bed, and behold, an angelicwatcher, a holy one, descended from heaven. | I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and behold, a watcher and a holy one came down from the heavens; | `I was looking, in the visions of my head on my bed, and lo, a sifter, even a holy one, from the heavens is coming down. |
| 4. | 14. | 大 聲 呼 叫 說 ： 伐 倒 這 樹 ！ 砍 下 枝 子 ！ 搖 掉 葉 子 ！ 拋 散 果 子 ！ 使 走 獸 離 開 樹 下 ， 飛 鳥 躲 開 樹 枝 。 | `He shouted out and spoke as follows: | he cried aloud, and said thus: Hew down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its fruit; let the beasts get away from under it, and the birds from its branches. | He is calling mightily, and thus hath said, Cut down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its budding, move away let the beast from under it, and the birds from off its branches; |

| 4. | 15. | 樹 墩 卻 要 留 在 地 內 ， 用 鐵 圈 和 銅 圈 箍 住 ， 在 田 野 的 青 草 中 讓 天 露 滴 濕 ， 使 他 與 地 上 的 獸 一 同 吃 草 ， | "Yet leave the stump with its roots in the ground, | Nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be bathed with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth. | but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens is it wet, and with the beasts [is] his portion in the herb of the earth; |

| 4. | 17. | 這 是 守 望 者 所 發 的 命 ， 聖 者 所 出 的 令 ， 好 叫 世 人 知 道 至 高 者 在 人 的 國 中 掌 權 ， 要 將 國 賜 與 誰 就 賜 與 誰 ， 或 立 極 卑 微 的 人 執 掌 國 權 。 | "This sentence is by the decree of the angelic watchers | This sentence is by the decree of the watchers, and the decision by the word of the holy ones: that the living may know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men. | by the decree of the sifters [is] the sentence, and by the saying of the holy ones the requirement, to the intent that the living may know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He willeth He giveth it, and the lowest of men He doth raise up over it. |

| 4. | 18. | 這 是 我 ─ 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 所 做 的 夢 。 伯 提 沙 撒 啊 ， 你 要 說 明 這 夢 的 講 解 ； 因 為 我 國 中 的 一 切 哲 士 都 不 能 將 夢 的 講 解 告 訴 我 ， 惟 獨 你 能 ， 因 你 裡 頭 有 聖 神 的 靈 。 | `This is the dream which I, King Nebuchadnezzar, have seen.

| 4. | 19. | 於 是 稱 為 伯 提 沙 撒 的 但 以 理 驚 訝 片 時 ， 心 意 驚 惶 。 王 說 ： 伯 提 沙 撒 啊 ， 不 要 因 夢 和 夢 的 講 解 驚 惶 。 伯 提 沙 撒 回 答 說 ： 我 主 啊 ， 願 這 夢 歸 與 恨 惡 你 的 人 ， 講 解 歸 與 你 的 敵 人 。 | "Then Daniel, whose name is Belteshazzar, was appalled for a while as his thoughts alarmed him.

| 4. | 29. | 過 了 十 二 個 月 ， 他 遊 行 在 巴 比 倫 王 宮 裡 （ 原 文 是 上 ） 。 | "Twelve months later he was walking on the roof of the royal palace of Babylon. | At the end of twelve months he was walking upon the royal palace of Babylon: | `At the end of twelve months, on the palace of the kingdom of Babylon he hath been walking; |
| 4. | 30. | 他 說 ： 這 大 巴 比 倫 不 是 我 用 大 能 大 力 建 為 京 都 ， 要 顯 我 威 嚴 的 榮 耀 麼 ？ | "The king reflected and said, `Is this not Babylon the great, which I myself have built as a royal residence by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?' | the king spoke and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty? | the king hath answered and said, Is not this that great Babylon that I have built, for the house of the kingdom, in the might of my strength, and for the glory of mine honour? |
| 4. | 31. | 這 話 在 王 口 中 尚 未 說 完 ， 有 聲 音 從 天 降 下 ， 說 ： 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 王 啊 ， 有 話 對 你 說 ， 你 的 國 位 離 開 你 了 。 | "While the word was in the king's mouth, a voice came from heaven, saying, `King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is declared: sovereignty has been removed from you, | While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from the heavens: King Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken: The kingdom is departed from thee; | `While the word is [in] the king's mouth a voice from the heavens hath fallen: To thee they are saying: O Nebuchadnezzar the king, the kingdom hath passed from thee, |
| 4. | 32. | 你 必 被 趕 出 離 開 世 人 ， 與 野 地 的 獸 同 居 ， 吃 草 如 牛 ， 且 要 經 過 七 期 。 等 你 知 道 至 高 者 在 人 的 國 中 掌 權 ， 要 將 國 賜 與 誰 就 賜 與 誰 。 | and you will be driven away from mankind, and your dwelling place will be with the beasts of the field. You will be given grass to eat like cattle, and seven periods of time will pass over you until you recognize that the Most High is ruler over the realm of mankind and bestows it on whomever He wishes.' | and they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field; they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will. | and from men they are driving thee away, and with the beast of the field [is] thy dwelling, the herb as oxen they do cause thee to eat, and seven times do pass over thee, till that thou knowest that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He willeth He giveth it. |
| 4. | 33. | 當 時 這 話 就 應 驗 在 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 的 身 上 ， 他 被 趕 出 離 開 世 人 ， 吃 草 如 牛 ， 身 被 天 露 滴 濕 ， 頭 髮 長 長 ， 好 像 鷹 毛 ； 指 甲 長 長 ， 如 同 鳥 爪 。 | "Immediately the word concerning Nebuchadnezzar was fulfilled; and he was driven away from mankind and began eating grass like cattle, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven until his hair had grown like eagles' feathers and his nails like birds' claws. | The same hour was the word fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar; and he was driven from men, and ate grass as oxen; and his body was bathed with the dew of heaven, till his hair grew like eagles' [feathers], and his nails like birds' [claws]. | `In that hour the thing hath been fulfilled on Nebuchadnezzar, and from men he is driven, and the herb as oxen he eateth, and by the dew of the heavens his body is wet, till that his hair as eagles' hath become great, and his nails as birds.' |
| 4. | 34. | 日 子 滿 足 ， 我 ─ 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 舉 目 望 天 ， 我 的 聰 明 復 歸 於 我 ， 我 便 稱 頌 至 高 者 ， 讚 美 尊 敬 活 到 永 遠 的 神 。 他 的 權 柄 是 永 有 的 ； 他 的 國 存 到 萬 代 。 | "But at the end of that period, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever; For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, | And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto the heavens, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation. | `And at the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, mine eyes to the heavens have lifted up, and mine understanding unto me returneth, and the Most High I have blessed, and the Age-during Living One I have praised and honoured, whose dominion [is] a dominion age-during, and His kingdom with generation and generation; |
| 4. | And His kingdom endures from generation to generation. |
| 4. | 35. | 世 上 所 有 的 居 民 都 算 為 虛 無 ； 在 天 上 的 萬 軍 和 世 上 的 居 民 中 ， 他 都 憑 自 己 的 意 旨 行 事 。 無 人 能 攔 住 他 手 ， 或 問 他 說 ， 你 做 甚 麼 呢 ？ | "All the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing, | And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he doeth according to his will in the army of the heavens, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? | and all who are dwelling on the earth as nothing are reckoned, and according to his will He is doing among the forces of the heavens and those dwelling on the earth, and there is none that doth clap with his hand, and saith to Him, What hast Thou done? |
| 4. | But He does according to His will in the host of heaven |
| 4. | And among the inhabitants of earth; |
| 4. | And no one can ward off His hand |
| 4. | Or say to Him, `What have You done?' |
| 4. | 36. | 那 時 ， 我 的 聰 明 復 歸 於 我 ， 為 我 國 的 榮 耀 、 威 嚴 ， 和 光 耀 也 都 復 歸 於 我 ； 並 且 我 的 謀 士 和 大 臣 也 來 朝 見 我 。 我 又 得 堅 立 在 國 位 上 ， 至 大 的 權 柄 加 增 於 我 。 | "At that time my reason returned to me. And my majesty and splendor were restored to me for the glory of my kingdom, and my counselors and my nobles began seeking me out; so I was reestablished in my sovereignty, and surpassing greatness was added to me. | At the same time mine understanding returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my nobles sought me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent greatness was added unto me. | `At that time my understanding doth return unto me, and for the glory of my kingdom, my honour and my brightness doth return unto me, and to me my counsellors and my great men do seek, and over my kingdom I have been made right, and abundant greatness hath been added to me. |
| 4. | 37. | 現 在 我 ─ 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 讚 美 、 尊 崇 、 恭 敬 天 上 的 王 ； 因 為 他 所 做 的 全 都 誠 實 ， 他 所 行 的 也 都 公 平 。 那 行 動 驕 傲 的 ， 他 能 降 為 卑 。 | "Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt and honor the King of heaven, for all His works are true and His ways just, and He is able to humble those who walk in pride." | Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of the heavens, all whose works are truth, and his paths judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase. | `Now, I, Nebuchadnezzar, am praising and exalting and honouring the King of the heavens, for all His works [are] truth, and His paths judgment, and those walking in pride He is able to humble.' |
| 5. | 1. | 伯 沙 撒 王 為 他 的 一 千 大 臣 設 擺 盛 筵 ， 與 這 一 千 人 對 面 飲 酒 。 | Belshazzar the king held a great feast for a thousand of his nobles, and he was drinking wine in the presence of the thousand. | Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his nobles, and drank wine before the thousand. | Belshazzar the king hath made a great feast to a thousand of his great men, and before the thousand he is drinking wine; |
| 5. | 2. | 伯 沙 撒 歡 飲 之 間 ， 吩 咐 人 將 他 父 （ 或 譯 ： 祖 ； 下 同 ） 尼 布 甲 尼 撒 從 耶 路 撒 冷 殿 中 所 掠 的 金 銀 器 皿 拿 來 ， 王 與 大 臣 、 皇 后 、 妃 嬪 好 用 這 器 皿 飲 酒 。 | When Belshazzar tasted the wine, he gave orders to bring the gold and silver vessels which Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem, so that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines might drink from them. | Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, might drink in them. | Belshazzar hath said -- while tasting the wine -- to bring in the vessels of gold and of silver that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken from the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, that drink with them may the king, and his great men, his wives, and his concubines. |
| 5. | 3. | 於 是 他 們 把 耶 路 撒 冷 神 殿 庫 房 中 所 掠 的 金 器 皿 拿 來 ， 王 和 大 臣 、 皇 后 、 妃 嬪 就 用 這 器 皿 飲 酒 。 | Then they brought the gold vessels that had been taken out of the temple, the house of God which was in Jerusalem; and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines drank from them. | Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, drank in them. | Then they have brought in the vessels of gold that had been taken out of the temple of the house of God that [is] in Jerusalem, and drunk with them have the king and his great men, his wives and his concubines; |
| 5. | 4. | 他 們 飲 酒 ， 讚 美 金 、 銀 、 銅 、 鐵 、 木 、 石 所 造 的 神 。 | They drank the wine and praised the gods of gold and silver, of bronze, iron, wood and stone. | They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone. | they have drunk wine, and have praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone. |
| 5. | 5. | 當 時 ， 忽 有 人 的 指 頭 顯 出 ， 在 王 宮 與 燈 臺 相 對 的 粉 牆 上 寫 字 。 王 看 見 寫 字 的 指 頭 | Suddenly the fingers of a man's hand emerged and began writing opposite the lampstand on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace, and the king saw the back of the hand that did the writing. | In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote. | In that hour come forth have fingers of a man's hand, and they are writing over-against the candlestick, on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king is seeing the extremity of the hand that is writing; |
| 5. | 6. | 就 變 了 臉 色 ， 心 意 驚 惶 ， 腰 骨 好 像 脫 節 ， 雙 膝 彼 此 相 碰 ， | Then the king's face grew pale and his thoughts alarmed him, and his hip joints went slack and his knees began knocking together. | Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another. | then the king's countenance hath changed, and his thoughts do trouble him, and the joints of his loins are loosed, and his knees are smiting one against another. |
| 5. | 7. | 大 聲 吩 咐 將 用 法 術 的 和 迦 勒 底 人 並 觀 兆 的 領 進 來 ， 對 巴 比 倫 的 哲 士 說 ， 誰 能 讀 這 文 字 ， 把 講 解 告 訴 我 ， 他 必 身 穿 紫 袍 ， 項 帶 金 鍊 ， 在 我 國 中 位 列 第 三 。 | The king called aloud to bring in the conjurers, the Chaldeans and the diviners. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, "Any man who can read this inscription and explain its interpretation to me shall be clothed with purple and havea necklace of gold around his neck, and have authority as third ruler in the kingdom." | The king cried aloud to bring in the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers.

| 5. | 8. | 於 是 王 的 一 切 哲 士 都 進 來 ， 卻 不 能 讀 那 文 字 ， 也 不 能 把 講 解 告 訴 王 。 | Then all the king's wise men came in, but they could not read the inscription or make known its interpretation to the king. | Then came in all the king's wise men, but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation. | Then coming up are all the wise men of the king, and they are not able to read the writing, and the interpretation to make known to the king; |
| 5. | 9. | 伯 沙 撒 王 就 甚 驚 惶 ， 臉 色 改 變 ， 他 的 大 臣 也 都 驚 奇 。 | Then King Belshazzar was greatly alarmed, his face grew even paler, and his nobles were perplexed. | Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his nobles were confounded. | then the king Belshazzar is greatly troubled, and his countenance is changing in him, and his great men are perplexed. |
| 5. | 10. | 太 后 （ 或 譯 ： 皇 后 ； 下 同 ） 因 王 和 他 大 臣 所 說 的 話 ， 就 進 入 宴 宮 ， 說 ： 願 王 萬 歲 ！ 你 心 意 不 要 驚 惶 ， 臉 面 不 要 變 色 。 | The queen entered the banquet hall because of the words of the king and his nobles; the queen spoke and said, "O king, live forever!

| 6. | 1. | 大 利 烏 隨 心 所 願 ， 立 一 百 二 十 個 總 督 ， 治 理 通 國 。 | It seemed good to Darius to appoint 120 satraps over the kingdom, that they would be in charge of the whole kingdom, | It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, who should be in all the kingdom; | It hath been good before Darius, and he hath established over the kingdom satraps -- a hundred and twenty -- that they may be throughout the whole kingdom, |
| 6. | 2. | 又 在 他 們 以 上 立 總 長 三 人 （ 但 以 理 在 其 中 ） ， 使 總 督 在 他 們 三 人 面 前 回 覆 事 務 ， 免 得 王 受 虧 損 。 | and over them three commissioners (of whom Daniel was one), that these satraps might be accountable to them, and that the king might not suffer loss. | and over these, three presidents -- of whom Daniel was one -- to whom these satraps should render account, and that the king should suffer no loss. | and higher than they three presidents, of whom Daniel [is] first, that these satraps may give to them an account, and the king have no loss. |
| 6. | 3. | 因 這 但 以 理 有 美 好 的 靈 性 ， 所 以 顯 然 超 乎 其 餘 的 總 長 和 總 督 ， 王 又 想 立 他 治 理 通 國 。 | Then this Daniel began distinguishing himself among the commissioners and satraps because he possessed an extraordinary spirit, and the king planned to appoint him over the entire kingdom. | Now this Daniel surpassed the presidents and the satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to appoint him over the whole realm. | Then this Daniel hath been overseer over the presidents and satraps, because that an excellent spirit [is] in him, and the king hath thought to establish him over the whole kingdom. |
| 6. | 4. | 那 時 ， 總 長 和 總 督 尋 找 但 以 理 誤 國 的 把 柄 ， 為 要 參 他 ； 只 是 找 不 著 他 的 錯 誤 過 失 ， 因 他 忠 心 辦 事 ， 毫 無 錯 誤 過 失 。 | Then the commissioners and satraps began trying to find a ground of accusation against Daniel in regard to government affairs; but they could find no ground of accusation or evidence of corruption, inasmuch as he was faithful, and no negligence or corruption was to be found in him. | Then the presidents and the satraps sought to find a pretext against Daniel with respect to the kingdom; but they could not find any pretext or fault; inasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him. | Then the presidents and satraps have been seeking to find a cause of complaint against Daniel concerning the kingdom, and any cause of complaint and corruption they are not able to find, because that he [is] faithful, and any error and corruption have not been found in him. |
| 6. | 5. | 那 些 人 便 說 ： 我 們 要 找 參 這 但 以 理 的 把 柄 ， 除 非 在 他 神 的 律 法 中 就 尋 不 著 。 | Then these men said, "We will not find any ground of accusation against this Daniel unless we find it against him with regard to the law of his God." | Then said these men, We shall not find any pretext against this Daniel, unless we find [it] against him touching the law of his God. | Then these men are saying, `We do not find against this Daniel any cause of complaint, except we have found [it] against him in the law of his God.' |
| 6. | 6. | 於 是 ， 總 長 和 總 督 紛 紛 聚 集 來 見 王 ， 說 ： 願 大 利 烏 王 萬 歲 ！ | Then these commissioners and satraps came by agreement to the king and spoke to him as follows: "King Darius, live forever! | Then these presidents and satraps came in a body to the king, and said thus unto him: King Darius, live for ever! | Then these presidents and satraps have assembled near the king, and thus they are saying to him: `O king Darius, to the ages live! |
| 6. | 7. | 國 中 的 總 長 、 欽 差 、 總 督 、 謀 士 ， 和 巡 撫 彼 此 商 議 ， 要 立 一 條 堅 定 的 禁 令 （ 或 譯 ： 求 王 下 旨 要 立 一 條 … … ） ， 三 十 日 內 ， 不 拘 何 人 ， 若 在 王 以 外 ， 或 向 神 或 向 人 求 甚 麼 ， 就 必 扔 在 獅 子 坑 中 。 | "All the commissioners of the kingdom, the prefects and the satraps, the high officials and the governors have consulted together that the king should establish a statute and enforce an injunction that anyone who makes a petition to any god or man besides you, O king, for thirty days, shall be cast into the lions' den. | All the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counsellors, and the governors have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions. | Taken counsel have all the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counsellors, and the governors, to establish a royal statute, and to strengthen an interdict, that any who seeketh a petition from any god and man until thirty days, save of thee, O king, is cast into a den of lions. |
| 6. | 8. | 王 啊 ， 現 在 求 你 立 這 禁 令 ， 加 蓋 玉 璽 ， 使 禁 令 決 不 更 改 ； 照 瑪 代 和 波 斯 人 的 例 是 不 可 更 改 的 。 | "Now, O king, establish the injunction and sign the document so that it may not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked." | Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked. | Now, O king, thou dost establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it is not to be changed, as a law of Media and Persia, that doth not pass away.' |
| 6. | 9. | 於 是 大 利 烏 王 立 這 禁 令 ， 加 蓋 玉 璽 。 | Therefore King Darius signed the document, that is, the injunction. | Therefore king Darius signed the writing and the decree. | Therefore king Darius hath signed the writing and interdict. |
| 6. | 10. | 但 以 理 知 道 這 禁 令 蓋 了 玉 璽 ， 就 到 自 己 家 裡 （ 他 樓 上 的 窗 戶 開 向 耶 路 撒 冷 ） ， 一 日 三 次 ， 雙 膝 跪 在 他 神 面 前 ， 禱 告 感 謝 ， 與 素 常 一 樣 。 | Now when Daniel knew that the document was signed, he entered his house (now in his roof chamber he had windows open toward Jerusalem); and he continued kneeling on his knees three times a day, praying and giving thanks before his God, as he had been doing previously. | And when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and, his windows being open in his upper chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime. | And Daniel, when he hath known that the writing is signed, hath gone up to his house, and the window being opened for him, in his upper chamber, over-against Jerusalem, three times in a day he is kneeling on his knees, and praying, and confessing before his God, because that he was doing [it] before this. |
| 6. | 11. | 那 些 人 就 紛 紛 聚 集 ， 見 但 以 理 在 他 神 面 前 祈 禱 懇 求 。 | Then these men came by agreement and found Daniel making petition and supplication before his God. | But those men came in a body, and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God. | Then these men have assembled, and found Daniel praying and entreating grace before his God; |
| 6. | 12. | 他 們 便 進 到 王 前 ， 提 王 的 禁 令 ， 說 ： 王 啊 ， 三 十 日 內 不 拘 何 人 ， 若 在 王 以 外 ， 或 向 神 或 向 人 求 甚 麼 ， 必 被 扔 在 獅 子 坑 中 。 王 不 是 在 這 禁 令 上 蓋 了 玉 璽 麼 ？ 王 回 答 說 ： 實 有 這 事 ， 照 瑪 代 和 波 斯 人 的 例 是 不 可 更 改 的 。 | Then they approached and spoke before the king about the king's injunction, "Did you not sign an injunction that any man who makes a petition to any god or man besides you, O king, for thirty days, is to be cast into the lions' den?" The king replied, "The statement is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked." | Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king's decree: Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that shall ask [anything] of any god or man within thirty days, except of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked. | then they have come near, yea, they are saying before the king concerning the king's interdict: `Hast thou not signed an interdict, that any man who seeketh from any god and man until thirty days, save of thee, O king, is cast into a den of lions?' Answered hath the king, and said, `The thing [is] certain as a law of Media and Persia, that doth not pass away.' |
| 6. | 13. | 他 們 對 王 說 ： 王 啊 ， 那 被 擄 之 猶 大 人 中 的 但 以 理 不 理 你 ， 也 不 遵 你 蓋 了 玉 璽 的 禁 令 ， 他 竟 一 日 三 次 祈 禱 。 | Then they answered and spoke before the king, "Daniel, who is one of the exiles from Judah, pays no attention to you, O king, or to the injunction which you signed, but keeps making his petition three times a day." | Then they answered and said before the king, That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the decree that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day. | Then they have answered, yea, they are saying before the king, that, `Daniel, who [is] of the sons of the Removed of Judah, hath not placed on thee, O king, [any] regard, nor on the interdict that thou hast signed, and three times in a day he is seeking his petition.' |
| 6. | 14. | 王 聽 見 這 話 ， 就 甚 愁 煩 ， 一 心 要 救 但 以 理 ， 籌 劃 解 救 他 ， 直 到 日 落 的 時 候 。 | Then, as soon as the king heard this statement, he was deeply distressed and set his mind on delivering Daniel; and even until sunset he kept exerting himself to rescue him. | Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore distressed thereby, and set his heart on Daniel to save him; and he laboured till the going down of the sun to deliver him. | Then the king, when he hath heard the matter, is greatly displeased at himself, and on Daniel he hath set the heart to deliver him, and till the going up of the sun he was arranging to deliver him. |
| 6. | 15. | 那 些 人 就 紛 紛 聚 集 來 見 王 ， 說 ： 王 啊 ， 當 知 道 瑪 代 人 和 波 斯 人 有 例 ， 凡 王 所 立 的 禁 令 和 律 例 都 不 可 更 改 。 | Then these men came by agreement to the king and said to the king, "Recognize, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians that no injunction or statute which the king establishes may be changed." | Then these men came in a body unto the king, and said unto the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, That no decree nor statute which the king establisheth may be changed. | Then these men have assembled near the king, and are saying to the king, `know, O king, that the law of Media and Persia [is]: That any interdict and statute that the king doth establish is not to be changed.' |
| 6. | 16. | 王 下 令 ， 人 就 把 但 以 理 帶 來 ， 扔 在 獅 子 坑 中 。 王 對 但 以 理 說 ： 你 所 常 事 奉 的 神 ， 他 必 救 你 。 | Then the king gave orders, and Daniel was brought in and cast into the lions' den. The king spoke and said to Daniel, "Your God whom you constantly serve will Himself deliver you." | Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast [him] into the den of lions. The king spoke and said unto Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will save thee. | Then the king hath said, and they have brought Daniel, and have cast [him] into a den of lions. The king hath answered and said to Daniel, `Thy God, whom thou art serving continually, Himself doth deliver thee.' |
| 6. | 17. | 有 人 搬 石 頭 放 在 坑 口 ， 王 用 自 己 的 璽 和 大 臣 的 印 ， 封 閉 那 坑 ， 使 懲 辦 但 以 理 的 事 毫 無 更 改 。 | A stone was brought and laid over the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signet rings of his nobles, so that nothing would be changed in regard to Daniel. | And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his nobles, that the purpose might not be changed concerning Daniel. | And a stone hath been brought and placed at the mouth of the den, and the king hath sealed it with his signet, and with the signet of his great men, that the purpose be not changed concerning Daniel. |
| 6. | 18. | 王 回 宮 ， 終 夜 禁 食 ， 無 人 拿 樂 器 到 他 面 前 ， 並 且 睡 不 著 覺 。 | Then the king went off to his palace and spent the night fasting, and no entertainment was brought before him; and his sleep fled from him. | Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were concubines brought before him; and his sleep fled from him. | Then hath the king gone to his palace, and he hath passed the night fasting, and dahavan have not been brought up before him, and his sleep hath fled [from] off him. |
| 6. | 19. | 次 日 黎 明 ， 王 就 起 來 ， 急 忙 往 獅 子 坑 那 裡 去 。 | Then the king arose at dawn, at the break of day, and went in haste to the lions' den. | Then the king arose with the light at break of day, and went in haste unto the den of lions. | Then doth the king rise in the early morning, at the light, and in haste to the den of lions he hath gone; |
| 6. | 20. | 臨 近 坑 邊 ， 哀 聲 呼 叫 但 以 理 ， 對 但 以 理 說 ： 永 生 神 的 僕 人 但 以 理 啊 ， 你 所 常 事 奉 的 神 能 救 你 脫 離 獅 子 麼 ？ | When he had come near the den to Daniel, he cried out with a troubled voice. The king spoke and said to Daniel, "Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you constantly serve, been able to deliver you from the lions?" | And when he came near unto the den, he cried with a mournful voice unto Daniel: the king spoke and said unto Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, hath thy God whom thou servest continually been able to save thee from the lions? | and at his coming near to the den, to Daniel, with a grieved voice, he crieth. The king hath answered and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, thy God, whom thou art serving continually, is He able to deliver thee from the lions?' |
| 6. | 21. | 但 以 理 對 王 說 ： 願 王 萬 歲 ！ | Then Daniel spoke to the king, "O king, live forever! | Then Daniel spoke unto the king, O king, live for ever! | Then Daniel hath spoken with the king: `O king, to the ages live: |
| 6. | 22. | 我 的 神 差 遣 使 者 ， 封 住 獅 子 的 口 ， 叫 獅 子 不 傷 我 ； 因 我 在 神 面 前 無 辜 ， 我 在 王 面 前 也 沒 有 行 過 虧 損 的 事 。 | "My God sent His angel and shut the lions' mouths and they have not harmed me, inasmuch as I was found innocent before Him; and also toward you, O king, I have committed no crime." | My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before him innocence was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt. | my God hath sent His messenger, and hath shut the lions' mouths, and they have not injured me: because that before Him purity hath been found in me; and also before thee, O king, injury I have not done.' |
| 6. | 23. | 王 就 甚 喜 樂 ， 吩 咐 人 將 但 以 理 從 坑 裡 繫 上 來 。 於 是 但 以 理 從 坑 裡 被 繫 上 來 ， 身 上 毫 無 傷 損 ， 因 為 信 靠 他 的 神 。 | Then the king was very pleased and gave orders for Daniel to be taken up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den and no injury whatever was found on him, because he had trusted in his God. | Thereupon was the king exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God. | Then was the king very glad for him, and he hath commanded Daniel to be taken up out of the den, and Daniel hath been taken up out of the den, and no injury hath been found in him, because he hath believed in his God. |
| 6. | 24. | 王 下 令 ， 人 就 把 那 些 控 告 但 以 理 的 人 ， 連 他 們 的 妻 子 兒 女 都 帶 來 ， 扔 在 獅 子 坑 中 。 他 們 還 沒 有 到 坑 底 ， 獅 子 就 抓 住 （ 原 文 是 勝 了 ） 他 們 ， 咬 碎 他 們 的 骨 頭 。 | The king then gave orders, and they brought those men who had maliciously accused Daniel, and they cast them, their children and their wives into the lions' den; and they had not reached the bottom of the den before the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones. | And the king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and broke all their bones in pieces ere they came to the bottom of the den. | And the king hath said, and they have brought those men who had accused Daniel, and to the den of lions they have cast them, they, their sons, and their wives; and they have not come to the lower part of the den till that the lions have power over them, and all their bones they have broken small. |
| 6. | 25. | 那 時 ， 大 利 烏 王 傳 旨 ， 曉 諭 住 在 全 地 各 方 、 各 國 、 各 族 的 人 說 ： 願 你 們 大 享 平 安 ！ | Then Darius the king wrote to all the peoples, nations and men of everylanguage who were living in all the land: "May your peace abound! | Then king Darius wrote unto all peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you. | Then Darius the king hath written to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the land: `Your peace be great! |
| 6. | 26. | 現 在 我 降 旨 曉 諭 我 所 統 轄 的 全 國 人 民 ， 要 在 但 以 理 的 神 面 前 ， 戰 兢 恐 懼 。 因 為 他 是 永 遠 長 存 的 活 神 ， 他 的 國 永 不 敗 壞 ； 他 的 權 柄 永 存 無 極 ！ | "I make a decree that in all the dominion of my kingdom men are to fear and tremble before the God of Daniel; For He is the living God and enduring forever, | I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God, and steadfast for ever, and his kingdom [that] which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end. | From before me is made a decree, that in every dominion of my kingdom they are trembling and fearing before the God of Daniel, for He [is] the living God, and abiding to the ages, and His kingdom that which [is] not destroyed, and His dominion [is] unto the end. |
| 6. | And His kingdom is one which will not be destroyed, |
| 6. | And His dominion will be forever. |
| 6. | 27. | 他 護 庇 人 ， 搭 救 人 ， 在 天 上 地 下 施 行 神 蹟 奇 事 ， 救 了 但 以 理 脫 離 獅 子 的 口 。 | "He delivers and rescues and performs signs and wonders | He saveth and delivereth, and he worketh signs and wonders in the heavens and on the earth: who hath saved Daniel from the power of the lions. | A deliverer, and rescuer, and doer of signs and wonders in the heavens and in earth [is] He who hath delivered Daniel from the paw of the lions.' |
| 6. | In heaven and on earth, |
| 6. | Who has also delivered Daniel from the power of the lions." |
| 6. | 28. | 如 此 ， 這 但 以 理 ， 當 大 利 烏 王 在 位 的 時 候 和 波 斯 王 古 列 在 位 的 時 候 ， 大 享 亨 通 。 | So this Daniel enjoyed success in the reign of Darius and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian. | And this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian. | And this Daniel hath prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian. |
| 7. | 1. | 巴 比 倫 王 伯 沙 撒 元 年 ， 但 以 理 在 床 上 做 夢 ， 見 了 腦 中 的 異 象 ， 就 記 錄 這 夢 ， 述 說 其 中 的 大 意 。 | In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel saw a dream and visions in his mind as he lay on his bed; then he wrote the dream down and related thefollowing summary of it. | In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream; he told the sum of the matters. | In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel hath seen a dream, and the visions of his head on his bed, then the dream he hath written, the chief of the things he hath said. |
| 7. | 2. | 但 以 理 說 ： 我 夜 裡 見 異 象 ， 看 見 天 的 四 風 陡 起 ， 颳 在 大 海 之 上 。 | Daniel said, "I was looking in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of heaven were stirring up the great sea. | Daniel spoke and said, I saw in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of the heavens broke forth upon the great sea. | Answered hath Daniel and said, `I was seeing in my vision by night, and lo, the four winds of the heavens are coming forth to the great sea; |
| 7. | 3. | 有 四 個 大 獸 從 海 中 上 來 ， 形 狀 各 有 不 同 ： | "And four great beasts were coming up from the sea, different from one another. | And four great beasts came up from the sea, different one from another. | and four great beasts are coming up from the sea, diverse one from another. |
| 7. | 4. | 頭 一 個 像 獅 子 ， 有 鷹 的 翅 膀 ； 我 正 觀 看 的 時 候 ， 獸 的 翅 膀 被 拔 去 ， 獸 從 地 上 得 立 起 來 ， 用 兩 腳 站 立 ， 像 人 一 樣 ， 又 得 了 人 心 。 | "The first was like a lion and had the wings of an eagle. I kept looking until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man; a human mind also was given to it. | The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till its wings were plucked; and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon two feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it. | The first [is] like a lion, and it hath an eagle's wings. I was seeing till that its wings have been plucked, and it hath been lifted up from the earth, and on feet as a man it hath been caused to stand, and a heart of man is given to it. |
| 7. | 5. | 又 有 一 獸 如 熊 ， 就 是 第 二 獸 ， 旁 跨 而 坐 ， 口 齒 內 啣 著 三 根 肋 骨 。 有 吩 咐 這 獸 的 說 ： 起 來 吞 吃 多 肉 。 | "And behold, another beast, a second one, resembling a bear. And it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth; and thus they said to it, `Arise, devour much meat!' | And behold, another beast, a second, like unto a bear, and it raised up itself on one side; and [it had] three ribs in its mouth between its teeth; and they said thus unto it: Arise, devour much flesh. | And lo, another beast, a second, like to a bear, and to the same authority it hath been raised, and three ribs [are] in its mouth, between its teeth, and thus they are saying to it, Rise, consume much flesh. |
| 7. | 6. | 此 後 我 觀 看 ， 又 有 一 獸 如 豹 ， 背 上 有 鳥 的 四 個 翅 膀 ； 這 獸 有 四 個 頭 ， 又 得 了 權 柄 。 | "After this I kept looking, and behold, another one, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird; the beast also had four heads, and dominion was given to it. | After this I saw, and behold, another, like a leopard, and it had four wings of a bird upon its back; and the beast had four heads; and dominion was given to it. | `After this I was seeing, and lo, another like a leopard, and it hath four wings of a fowl on its back, and four heads hath the beast, and dominion is given to it. |
| 7. | 7. | 其 後 我 在 夜 間 的 異 象 中 觀 看 ， 見 第 四 獸 甚 是 可 怕 ， 極 其 強 壯 ， 大 有 力 量 ， 有 大 鐵 牙 ， 吞 吃 嚼 碎 ， 所 剩 下 的 用 腳 踐 踏 。 這 獸 與 前 三 獸 大 不 相 同 ， 頭 有 十 角 。 | "After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrifying and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns. | After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and exceeding strong; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the rest with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. | `After this I was seeing in the visions of the night, and lo, a fourth beast, terrible and fearful, and exceedingly strong; and it hath iron teeth very great, it hath consumed, yea, it doth break small, and the remnant with its feet it hath trampled; and it [is] diverse from all the beasts that [are] before it; and it hath ten horns. |
| 7. | 8. | 我 正 觀 看 這 些 角 ， 見 其 中 又 長 起 一 個 小 角 ； 先 前 的 角 中 有 三 角 在 這 角 前 ， 連 根 被 他 拔 出 來 。 這 角 有 眼 ， 像 人 的 眼 ， 有 口 說 誇 大 的 話 。 | "While I was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth uttering greatboasts. | I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another, a little horn, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots; and behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things. | `I was considering about the horns, and lo, another horn, a little one, hath come up between them, and three of the first horns have been eradicated from before it, and lo, eyes as the eyes of man [are] in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things. |
| 7. | 9. | 我 觀 看 ， 見 有 寶 座 設 立 ， 上 頭 坐 著 亙 古 常 在 者 。 他 的 衣 服 潔 白 如 雪 ， 頭 髮 如 純 淨 的 羊 毛 。 寶 座 乃 火 燄 ， 其 輪 乃 烈 火 。 | "I kept looking | I beheld till thrones were set, and the Ancient of days did sit: his raiment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was flames of fire, [and] its wheels burning fire. | `I was seeing till that thrones have been thrown down, and the Ancient of Days is seated, His garment as snow [is] white, and the hair of his head [is] as pure wool, His throne flames of fire, its wheels burning fire. |
| 7. | Until thrones were set up, |
| 7. | And the Ancient of Days took Hisseat; |
| 7. | His vesture was like white snow |
| 7. | And the hair of His head like pure wool. |
| 7. | His throne was ablaze with flames, |
| 7. | Its wheels were a burning fire. |
| 7. | 10. | 從 他 面 前 有 火 ， 像 河 發 出 ； 事 奉 他 的 有 千 千 ， 在 他 面 前 侍 立 的 有 萬 萬 ； 他 坐 著 要 行 審 判 ， 案 卷 都 展 開 了 。 | "A river of fire was flowing | A stream of fire issued and came forth from before him; thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. | A flood of fire is proceeding and coming forth from before Him, a thousand thousands do serve Him, and a myriad of myriads before Him do rise up, the Judge is seated, and the books have been opened. |
| 7. | And coming out from before Him; |
| 7. | Thousands upon thousands were attending Him, |
| 7. | And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him; |
| 7. | The court sat, |
| 7. | And the books were opened. |
| 7. | 11. | 那 時 我 觀 看 ， 見 那 獸 因 小 角 說 誇 大 話 的 聲 音 被 殺 ， 身 體 損 壞 ， 扔 在 火 中 焚 燒 。 | "Then I kept looking because of the sound of the boastful words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the beast was slain, and its body was destroyed and given to the burning fire. | I beheld therefore, because of the voice of the great words that the horn spoke; I beheld till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given up to be burned with fire. | `I was seeing, then, because of the voice of the great words that the horn is speaking, I was seeing till that the beast is slain, and his body hath been destroyed, and given to the burning fire; |
| 7. | 12. | 其 餘 的 獸 ， 權 柄 都 被 奪 去 ， 生 命 卻 仍 存 留 ， 直 到 所 定 的 時 候 和 日 期 。 | "As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away, but an extension of life was granted to them for an appointed period of time. | As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away; but their lives were prolonged for a season and a time. | and the rest of the beasts have caused their dominion to pass away, and a prolongation in life is given to them, till a season and a time. |
| 7. | 13. | 我 在 夜 間 的 異 象 中 觀 看 ， 見 有 一 位 像 人 子 的 ， 駕 著 天 雲 而 來 ， 被 領 到 亙 古 常 在 者 面 前 ， | "I kept looking in the night visions, | I saw in the night visions, and behold, there came with the clouds of heaven [one] like a son of man, and he came up even to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. | `I was seeing in the visions of the night, and lo, with the clouds of the heavens as a son of man was [one] coming, and unto the Ancient of Days he hath come, and before Him they have brought him near. |
| 7. | And behold, with the clouds of heaven |
| 7. | One like a Son of Man was coming, |

| 7. | 16. | 我 就 近 一 位 侍 立 者 ， 問 他 這 一 切 的 真 情 。 他 就 告 訴 我 ， 將 那 事 的 講 解 給 我 說 明 。 | "I approached one of those who were standing by and began asking him the exact meaning of all this. So he told me and made known to me the interpretation of these things: | I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the certainty of all this.

| 7. | 19. | 那 時 我 願 知 道 第 四 獸 的 真 情 ， 他 為 何 與 那 三 獸 的 真 情 大 不 相 同 ， 甚 是 可 怕 ， 有 鐵 牙 銅 爪 ， 吞 吃 嚼 碎 ， 所 剩 下 的 用 腳 踐 踏 ； | "Then I desired to know the exact meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, exceedingly dreadful, with its teeth of iron and its claws of bronze, and which devoured, crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet, | Then I desired to know the certainty concerning the fourth beast, which was different from them all, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of brass; which devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped the rest with its feet; | `Then I wished for certainty concerning the fourth beast, that was diverse from them all, fearful exceedingly; its teeth of iron, and its nails of brass, it hath devoured, it doth break small, and the remnant with its feet it hath trampled; |
| 7. | 20. | 頭 有 十 角 和 那 另 長 的 一 角 ， 在 這 角 前 有 三 角 被 他 打 落 。 這 角 有 眼 ， 有 說 誇 大 話 的 口 ， 形 狀 強 橫 ， 過 於 他 的 同 類 。 | and the meaning of the ten horns thatwere on its head and the other horn which came up, and before which three of themfell, namely, that horn which had eyes and a mouth uttering great boasts and which was larger in appearance than its associates. | and concerning the ten horns that were in its head, and the other that came up, and before which three fell: even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and whose look was more imposing than its fellows. | and concerning the ten horns that [are] in its heads, and of the other that came up, and before which three have fallen, even of that horn that hath eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and whose appearance [is] great above its companions. |
| 7. | 21. | 我 觀 看 ， 見 這 角 與 聖 民 爭 戰 ， 勝 了 他 們 。 | "I kept looking, and that horn was waging war with the saints and overpowering them | I beheld, and that horn made war with the saints, and prevailed over them; | `I was seeing, and this horn is making war with the saints, and hath prevailed over them, |

| 7. | 28. | 那 事 至 此 完 畢 。 至 於 我 ─ 但 以 理 ， 心 中 甚 是 驚 惶 ， 臉 色 也 改 變 了 ， 卻 將 那 事 存 記 在 心 。 | "At this point the revelation ended. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts were greatly alarming me and my face grew pale, but I kept the matter to myself." | So far is the end of the matter.

I, Daniel, greatly do my thoughts trouble me, and my countenance is changed on me, and the matter in my heart I have kept. |
| 8. | 1. | 伯 沙 撒 王 在 位 第 三 年 ， 有 異 象 現 與 我 ─ 但 以 理 ， 是 在 先 前 所 見 的 異 象 之 後 。 | In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king a vision appeared to me, Daniel, subsequent to the one which appeared to me previously. | In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision appeared unto me, [even] to me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first. | `In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision hath appeared unto me -- I Daniel -- after that which had appeared unto me at the beginning. |
| 8. | 2. | 我 見 了 異 象 的 時 候 ， 我 以 為 在 以 攔 省 書 珊 城 （ 或 譯 ： 宮 ） 中 ； 我 見 異 象 又 如 在 烏 萊 河 邊 。 | I looked in the vision, and while I was looking I was in the citadel of Susa, which is in the province of Elam; and I looked in the vision and I myself was beside the Ulai Canal. | And I saw in the vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was in the fortress of Shushan, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai. | And I see in a vision, and it cometh to pass, in my seeing, and I [am] in Shushan the palace that [is] in Elam the province, and I see in a vision, and I have been by the stream Ulai. |
| 8. | 3. | 我 舉 目 觀 看 ， 見 有 雙 角 的 公 綿 羊 站 在 河 邊 ， 兩 角 都 高 。 這 角 高 過 那 角 ， 更 高 的 是 後 長 的 。 | Then I lifted my eyes and looked, and behold, a ram which had two horns was standing in front of the canal. Now the two horns were long, but one was longer than the other, with the longer one coming up last. | And 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; and one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last. | And I lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, a certain ram is standing before the stream, and it hath two horns, and the two horns [are] high; and the one [is] higher than the other, and the high one is coming up last. |
| 8. | 4. | 我 見 那 公 綿 羊 往 西 、 往 北 、 往 南 牴 觸 。 獸 在 他 面 前 都 站 立 不 住 ， 也 沒 有 能 救 護 脫 離 他 手 的 ； 但 他 任 意 而 行 ， 自 高 自 大 。 | I saw the ram butting westward, northward, and southward, and no otherbeasts could stand before him nor was there anyone to rescue from his power, but he did as he pleased and magnifiedhimself. | I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no beast could stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; and he did according to his will, and became great. | I have seen the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no living creatures do stand before it, and there is none delivering out of its hand, and it hath done according to its pleasure, and hath exerted itself. |
| 8. | 5. | 我 正 思 想 的 時 候 ， 見 有 一 隻 公 山 羊 從 西 而 來 ， 遍 行 全 地 ， 腳 不 沾 塵 。 這 山 羊 兩 眼 當 中 有 一 非 常 的 角 。 | While I was observing, behold, a male goat was coming from the west over the surface of the whole earth without touching the ground; and the goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes. | And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat came from the west over the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes. | `And I have been considering, and lo, a young he-goat hath come from the west, over the face of the whole earth, whom none is touching in the earth; as to the young he-goat, a conspicuous horn [is] between its eyes. |
| 8. | 6. | 他 往 我 所 看 見 、 站 在 河 邊 有 雙 角 的 公 綿 羊 那 裡 去 ， 大 發 忿 怒 ， 向 他 直 闖 。 | He came up to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing in front of the canal, and rushed at him in his mighty wrath. | And he came to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran upon him in the fury of his power. | And it cometh unto the ram possessing the two horns, that I had seen standing before the stream, and runneth unto it in the fury of its power. |
| 8. | 7. | 我 見 公 山 羊 就 近 公 綿 羊 ， 向 他 發 烈 怒 ， 牴 觸 他 ， 折 斷 他 的 兩 角 。 綿 羊 在 他 面 前 站 立 不 住 ； 他 將 綿 羊 觸 倒 在 地 ， 用 腳 踐 踏 ， 沒 有 能 救 綿 羊 脫 離 他 手 的 。 | I saw him come beside the ram, and he was enraged at him; and he struck the ram and shattered his two horns, and the ram had no strength to withstand him. So he hurled him to the ground and trampled on him, and there was none to rescue the ram from his power. | And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged with him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; and he cast him down to the ground, and trampled upon him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand. | And I have seen it coming near the ram, and it becometh embittered at it, and smiteth the ram, and breaketh its two horns, and there hath been no power in the ram to stand before it, and it casteth it to the earth, and trampleth it down, and there hath been no deliverer to the ram out of its power. |
| 8. | 8. | 這 山 羊 極 其 自 高 自 大 ， 正 強 盛 的 時 候 ， 那 大 角 折 斷 了 ， 又 在 角 根 上 向 天 的 四 方 （ 原 文 是 風 ） 長 出 四 個 非 常 的 角 來 。 | Then the male goat magnified himselfexceedingly. But as soon as he was mighty, the large horn was broken; and in its place there came up four conspicuoushorns toward the four winds of heaven. | And the he-goat became exceeding great; but when he was become strong, the great horn was broken; and in its stead came up four notable ones toward the four winds of the heavens. | `And the young he-goat hath exerted itself very much, and when it is strong, broken hath been the great horn; and come up doth a vision of four in its place, at the four winds of the heavens. |
| 8. | 9. | 四 角 之 中 有 一 角 長 出 一 個 小 角 ， 向 南 、 向 東 、 向 榮 美 之 地 ， 漸 漸 成 為 強 大 。 | Out of one of them came forth a rather small horn which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the Beautiful Land. | And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which became exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beauty [of the earth]. | And from the one of them come forth hath a little horn, and it exerteth itself greatly toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beauteous [land]; |
| 8. | 10. | 他 漸 漸 強 大 ， 高 及 天 象 ， 將 些 天 象 和 星 宿 拋 落 在 地 ， 用 腳 踐 踏 。 | It grew up to the host of heaven and caused some of the host and some of the stars to fall to the earth, and it trampled them down. | And it became great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down [some] of the host and of the stars to the ground, and trampled upon them. | yea, it exerteth unto the host of the heavens, and causeth to fall to the earth of the host, and of the stars, and trampleth them down. |
| 8. | 11. | 並 且 他 自 高 自 大 ， 以 為 高 及 天 象 之 君 ； 除 掉 常 獻 給 君 的 燔 祭 ， 毀 壞 君 的 聖 所 。 | It even magnified itself to be equal with the Commander of the host; and it removed the regular sacrifice from Him, and the place of His sanctuary was thrown down. | (And he magnified [himself] even to the prince of the host, and from him the continual [sacrifice] was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. | And unto the prince of the host it exerteth itself, and by it taken away hath been the continual [sacrifice], and thrown down the base of his sanctuary. |
| 8. | 12. | 因 罪 過 的 緣 故 ， 有 軍 旅 和 常 獻 的 燔 祭 交 付 他 。 他 將 真 理 拋 在 地 上 ， 任 意 而 行 ， 無 不 順 利 。 | And on account of transgression the host will be given over to the horn along with the regular sacrifice; and it will fling truth to the ground and perform its will and prosper. | And a time of trial was appointed unto the continual [sacrifice] by reason of transgression.) And it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised and prospered. | And the host is given up, with the continual [sacrifice], through transgression, and it throweth down truth to the earth, and it hath worked, and prospered. |
| 8. | 13. | 我 聽 見 有 一 位 聖 者 說 話 ， 又 有 一 位 聖 者 問 那 說 話 的 聖 者 說 ： 這 除 掉 常 獻 的 燔 祭 和 施 行 毀 壞 的 罪 過 ， 將 聖 所 與 軍 旅 （ 或 譯 ： 以 色 列 的 軍 ） 踐 踏 的 異 象 ， 要 到 幾 時 才 應 驗 呢 ？ | Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another holy one said to that particular one who was speaking, "How long will the vision about the regular sacrifice apply, while the transgression causes horror, so as to allow both the holy place and the host to be trampled?" | And I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that one who spoke, How long shall be the vision of the continual [sacrifice] and of the transgression that maketh desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden down under foot? | `And I hear a certain holy one speaking, and a certain holy one saith to the wonderful numberer who is speaking: Till when [is] the vision of the continual [sacrifice], and of the transgression, an astonishment, to make both sanctuary and host a treading down? |
| 8. | 14. | 他 對 我 說 ： 到 二 千 三 百 日 ， 聖 所 就 必 潔 淨 。 | He said to me, "For 2,300 evenings andmornings; then the holy place will be properly restored." | And he said unto me, Until two thousand and three hundred evenings [and] mornings: then shall the sanctuary be vindicated. | And he saith unto me, Till evening -- morning two thousand and three hundred, then is the holy place declared right. |
| 8. | 15. | 我 ─ 但 以 理 見 了 這 異 象 ， 願 意 明 白 其 中 的 意 思 。 忽 有 一 位 形 狀 像 人 的 站 在 我 面 前 。 | When I, Daniel, had seen the vision, I sought to understand it; and behold, standing before me was one who looked like a man. | And it came to pass, when I Daniel had seen the vision, I sought for the understanding of it, and behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man. | `And it cometh to pass in my seeing -- I, Daniel -- the vision, that I require understanding, and lo, standing over-against me [is] as the appearance of a mighty one. |
| 8. | 16. | 我 又 聽 見 烏 萊 河 兩 岸 中 有 人 聲 呼 叫 說 ： 加 百 列 啊 ， 要 使 此 人 明 白 這 異 象 。 | And I heard the voice of a man betweenthe banks of Ulai, and he called out and said, "Gabriel, give this man an understanding of the vision." | And I heard a man's voice between [the banks of] the Ulai; and he called and said, Gabriel, make this [man] to understand the vision. | And I hear a voice of man between [the banks of] Ulai, and he calleth and saith: Gabriel, cause this [one] to understand the appearance. |
| 8. | 17. | 他 便 來 到 我 所 站 的 地 方 。 他 一 來 ， 我 就 驚 慌 俯 伏 在 地 ； 他 對 我 說 ： 人 子 啊 ， 你 要 明 白 ， 因 為 這 是 關 乎 末 後 的 異 象 。 | So he came near to where I was standing, and when he came I was frightened and fell on my face; but he said to me, "Son of man, understand that the vision pertains to the time of the end." | And he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was afraid, and fell on my face; and he said unto me, Understand, son of man; for the vision is for the time of the end. | And he cometh in near my station, and at his coming in I have been afraid, and I fall on my face, and he saith unto me: Understand, son of man, for at the time of the end [is] the vision. |
| 8. | 18. | 他 與 我 說 話 的 時 候 ， 我 面 伏 在 地 沉 睡 ； 他 就 摸 我 ， 扶 我 站 起 來 ， | Now while he was talking with me, I sank into a deep sleep with my face to the ground; but he touched me and made me stand upright. | Now, as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep stupor, with my face toward the ground. And he touched me, and set me up where I had stood. | And in his speaking with me, I have been in a trance on my face, on the earth; and he cometh against me, and causeth me to stand on my station, |
| 8. | 19. | 說 ： 我 要 指 示 你 惱 怒 臨 完 必 有 的 事 ， 因 為 這 是 關 乎 末 後 的 定 期 。 | He said, "Behold, I am going to let you know what will occur at the final period of the indignation, for it pertains to the appointed time of the end. | And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be at the end of the indignation: for at the set time the end shall be. | and saith: Lo, I -- I am causing thee to know that which is in the latter end of the indignation; for, at the appointed time [is] the end. |
| 8. | 20. | 你 所 看 見 雙 角 的 公 綿 羊 ， 就 是 瑪 代 和 波 斯 王 。 | "The ram which you saw with the two horns represents the kings of Media and Persia. | The ram that thou sawest having the two horns: they are the kings of Media and Persia. | `The ram that thou hast seen possessing two horns, [are] the kings of Media and Persia. |
| 8. | 21. | 那 公 山 羊 就 是 希 利 尼 王 （ 希 利 尼 ： 原 文 是 雅 完 ； 下 同 ） ； 兩 眼 當 中 的 大 角 就 是 頭 一 王 。 | "The shaggy goat represents the kingdom of Greece, and the large horn that is between his eyes is the first king. | And the rough goat is the king of Greece; and the great horn that was between his eyes is the first king. | And the young he-goat, the hairy one, [is] the king of Javan; and the great horn that [is] between its eyes is the first king; |
| 8. | 22. | 至 於 那 折 斷 了 的 角 ， 在 其 根 上 又 長 出 四 角 ， 這 四 角 就 是 四 國 ， 必 從 這 國 裡 興 起 來 ， 只 是 權 勢 都 不 及 他 。 | "The broken horn and the four horns thatarose in its place represent four kingdomswhich will arise from his nation, although not with his power. | Now that being broken, whereas four stood up in its stead, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not with his power. | and that being broken, stand up do four in its place, four kingdoms from the nation do stand up, and not in its power. |
| 8. | 23. | 這 四 國 末 時 ， 犯 法 的 人 罪 惡 滿 盈 ， 必 有 一 王 興 起 ， 面 貌 凶 惡 ， 能 用 雙 關 的 詐 語 。 | "In the latter period of their rule, | And at the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors shall have come to the full, a king of bold countenance, and understanding riddles, shall stand up. | `And in the latter end of their kingdom, about the perfecting of the transgressors, stand up doth a king, fierce of face, and understanding hidden things; |
| 8. | When the transgressors have run their course, |
| 8. | A king will arise, |
| 8. | Insolent and skilled in intrigue. |
| 8. | 24. | 他 的 權 柄 必 大 ， 卻 不 是 因 自 己 的 能 力 ； 他 必 行 非 常 的 毀 滅 ， 事 情 順 利 ， 任 意 而 行 ； 又 必 毀 滅 有 能 力 的 和 聖 民 。 | "His power will be mighty, but not by his own power, | And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy marvellously, and shall prosper, and shall practise, and shall destroy the mighty ones, and the people of the saints. | and his power hath been mighty, and not by his own power; and wonderful things he destroyeth, and he hath prospered, and wrought, and destroyed mighty ones, and the people of the Holy Ones. |
| 8. | And he will destroy to an extraordinary degree |
| 8. | And prosper and perform his will; |
| 8. | He will destroy mighty men and the holy people. |
| 8. | 25. | 他 用 權 術 成 就 手 中 的 詭 計 ， 心 裡 自 高 自 大 ， 在 人 坦 然 無 備 的 時 候 ， 毀 滅 多 人 ； 又 要 站 起 來 攻 擊 萬 君 之 君 ， 至 終 卻 非 因 人 手 而 滅 亡 。 | "And through his shrewdness | And through his cunning shall he cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he will magnify [himself] in his heart, and by prosperity will corrupt many; and he will stand up against the Prince of princes: but he shall be broken without hand. | `And by his understanding he hath also caused deceit to prosper in his hand, and in his heart he exerteth himself, and by ease he destroyeth many; and against the prince of princes he standeth -- and without hand he is broken. |
| 8. | He will cause deceit to succeed by his influence; |
| 8. | And he will magnify himself in his heart, |
| 8. | And he will destroy many while they are at ease. |
| 8. | He will even oppose the Prince of princes, |
| 8. | But he will be broken without human agency. |
| 8. | 26. | 所 說 二 千 三 百 日 的 異 象 是 真 的 ， 但 你 要 將 這 異 象 封 住 ， 因 為 關 乎 後 來 許 多 的 日 子 。 | "The vision of the evenings and mornings | And the vision of the evening and the morning which hath been told is true; but close thou up the vision, for it is for many days [to come]. | And the appearance of the evening and of the morning, that is told, is true; and thou, hide thou the vision, for [it is] after many days.' |
| 8. | Which has been told is true; |
| 8. | But keep the vision secret, |
| 8. | For it pertains to many days in the future." |
| 8. | 27. | 於 是 我 ─ 但 以 理 昏 迷 不 醒 ， 病 了 數 日 ， 然 後 起 來 辦 理 王 的 事 務 。 我 因 這 異 象 驚 奇 ， 卻 無 人 能 明 白 其 中 的 意 思 。 | Then I, Daniel, was exhausted and sick for days. Then I got up again and carried on the king's business; but I was astounded at the vision, and there was none to explain it. | And I Daniel fainted, and was sick [certain] days: then I rose up, and did the king's business. And I was astonished at the vision, but none understood [it]. | And I, Daniel, have been, yea, I became sick [for] days, and I rise, and do the king's work, and am astonished at the appearance, and there is none understanding. |

| 9. | 3. | 我 便 禁 食 ， 披 麻 蒙 灰 ， 定 意 向 主 神 祈 禱 懇 求 。 | So I gave my attention to the Lord God to seek Him by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth and ashes. | And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes; | and I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek [by] prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes. |
| 9. | 4. | 我 向 耶 和 華 ─ 我 的 神 祈 禱 、 認 罪 ， 說 ： 主 啊 ， 大 而 可 畏 的 神 ， 向 愛 主 、 守 主 誡 命 的 人 守 約 施 慈 愛 。 | I prayed to the LORD my God and confessed and said, "Alas, O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps His covenant and lovingkindness for those who love Him and keep His commandments, | and I prayed unto Jehovah my God, and made my confession, and said, Alas Lord! the great and terrible ùGod, keeping covenant and loving-kindness with them that love him, and that keep his commandments: | And I pray to Jehovah my God, and confess, and say: `I beseech Thee, O Lord God, the great and the fearful, keeping the covenant and the kindness to those loving Him, and to those keeping His commands; |
| 9. | 5. | 我 們 犯 罪 作 孽 ， 行 惡 叛 逆 ， 偏 離 你 的 誡 命 典 章 ， | we have sinned, committed iniquity, acted wickedly and rebelled, even turning aside from Your commandments and ordinances. | we have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even turning aside from thy commandments and from thine ordinances. | we have sinned, and done perversely, and done wickedly, and rebelled, to turn aside from Thy commands, and from Thy judgments: |
| 9. | 6. | 沒 有 聽 從 你 僕 人 眾 先 知 奉 你 名 向 我 們 君 王 、 首 領 、 列 祖 ， 和 國 中 一 切 百 姓 所 說 的 話 。 | "Moreover, we have not listened to Your servants the prophets, who spoke in Your name to our kings, our princes, our fathers and all the people of the land. | And we have not hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, who spoke in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land. | and we have not hearkened unto Thy servants, the prophets, who have spoken in Thy name unto our kings, our heads, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land. |
| 9. | 7. | 主 啊 ， 你 是 公 義 的 ， 我 們 是 臉 上 蒙 羞 的 ； 因 我 們 猶 大 人 和 耶 路 撒 冷 的 居 民 ， 並 以 色 列 眾 人 ， 或 在 近 處 ， 或 在 遠 處 ， 被 你 趕 到 各 國 的 人 ， 都 得 罪 了 你 ， 正 如 今 日 一 樣 。 | "Righteousness belongs to You, O Lord, but to us open shame, as it is this day--to the men of Judah, the inhabitants of Jerusalem and all Israel, those who are nearby and those who are far away in all the countries to which You have driven them, because of their unfaithful deeds which they have committed against You. | Thine, O Lord, is the righteousness, but unto us confusion of face, as at this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, in all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their unfaithfulness in which they have been unfaithful against thee. | `To Thee, O Lord, [is] the righteousness, and to us the shame of face, as [at] this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, in all the lands whither Thou hast driven them, in their trespass that they have trespassed against Thee. |
| 9. | 8. | 主 啊 ， 我 們 和 我 們 的 君 王 、 首 領 、 列 祖 因 得 罪 了 你 ， 就 都 臉 上 蒙 羞 。 | "Open shame belongs to us, O Lord, to our kings, our princes and our fathers, because we have sinned against You. | O Lord, unto us is confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee. | `O Lord, to us [is] the shame of face, to our kings, to our heads, and to our fathers, in that we have sinned against Thee. |
| 9. | 9. | 主 ─ 我 們 的 神 是 憐 憫 饒 恕 人 的 ， 我 們 卻 違 背 了 他 ， | "To the Lord our God belong compassion and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against Him; | With the Lord our God are mercies and pardons, for we have rebelled against him; | `To the Lord our God [are] the mercies and the forgivenesses, for we have rebelled against Him, |
| 9. | 10. | 也 沒 有 聽 從 耶 和 華 ─ 我 們 神 的 話 ， 沒 有 遵 行 他 藉 僕 人 眾 先 知 向 我 們 所 陳 明 的 律 法 。 | nor have we obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in His teachings which He set before us through His servants the prophets. | and we have not hearkened unto the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us through his servants the prophets. | and have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in His laws, that He hath set before us by the hand of His servants the prophets; |
| 9. | 11. | 以 色 列 眾 人 都 犯 了 你 的 律 法 ， 偏 行 ， 不 聽 從 你 的 話 ； 因 此 ， 在 你 僕 人 摩 西 律 法 上 所 寫 的 咒 詛 和 誓 言 都 傾 在 我 們 身 上 ， 因 我 們 得 罪 了 神 。 | "Indeed all Israel has transgressed Your law and turned aside, not obeying Your voice; so the curse has been poured out on us, along with the oath which is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, for we have sinned against Him. | And all Israel have transgressed thy law, even turning aside so as not to listen unto thy voice. And the curse hath been poured out upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God: for we have sinned against him. | and all Israel have transgressed Thy law, to turn aside so as not to hearken to Thy voice; and poured on us is the execration, and the oath, that is written in the law of Moses, servant of God, because we have sinned against Him. |
| 9. | 12. | 他 使 大 災 禍 臨 到 我 們 ， 成 就 了 警 戒 我 們 和 審 判 我 們 官 長 的 話 ； 原 來 在 普 天 之 下 未 曾 行 過 像 在 耶 路 撒 冷 所 行 的 。 | "Thus He has confirmed His words which He had spoken against us and against our rulers who ruled us, to bring on us great calamity; for under the whole heaven there has not been done anything like what was done to Jerusalem. | And he hath performed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil; so that there hath not been done under the whole heaven as hath been done upon Jerusalem. | `And He confirmeth His words that He hath spoken against us, and against our judges who have judged us, to bring in upon us great evil, in that it hath not been done under the whole heavens as it hath been done in Jerusalem, |
| 9. | 13. | 這 一 切 災 禍 臨 到 我 們 身 上 是 照 摩 西 律 法 上 所 寫 的 ， 我 們 卻 沒 有 求 耶 和 華 ─ 我 們 神 的 恩 典 ， 使 我 們 回 頭 離 開 罪 孽 ， 明 白 你 的 真 理 。 | "As it is written in the law of Moses, all this calamity has come on us; yet we have not sought the favor of the LORD our God by turning from our iniquity and giving attention to Your truth. | As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us; yet we besought not Jehovah our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth. | as it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil hath come upon us, and we have not appeased the face of Jehovah our God to turn back from our iniquities, and to act wisely in Thy truth. |
| 9. | 14. | 所 以 耶 和 華 留 意 使 這 災 禍 臨 到 我 們 身 上 ， 因 為 耶 和 華 ─ 我 們 的 神 在 他 所 行 的 事 上 都 是 公 義 ； 我 們 並 沒 有 聽 從 他 的 話 。 | "Therefore the LORD has kept the calamity in store and brought it on us; for the LORD our God is righteous with respect to all His deeds which He has done, but we have not obeyed His voice. | And Jehovah hath watched over the evil, and brought it upon us; for Jehovah our God is righteous in all his works which he hath done; and we have not hearkened unto his voice. | And Jehovah doth watch for the evil, and bringeth it upon us, for righteous [is] Jehovah our God concerning all His works that He hath done, and we have not hearkened to His voice. |
| 9. | 15. | 主 ─ 我 們 的 神 啊 ， 你 曾 用 大 能 的 手 領 你 的 子 民 出 埃 及 地 ， 使 自 己 得 了 名 ， 正 如 今 日 一 樣 。 我 們 犯 了 罪 ， 作 了 惡 。 | "And now, O Lord our God, who have brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand and have made a name for Yourself, as it is this day--we have sinned, we have been wicked. | -- And now, O Lord our God, who broughtest thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thee a name, as it is this day, -- we have sinned, we have done wickedly. | And now, O Lord our God, who hast brought forth Thy people from the land of Egypt by a strong hand, and dost make for Thee a name as at this day, we have sinned, we have done wickedly. |
| 9. | 16. | 主 啊 ， 求 你 按 你 的 大 仁 大 義 ， 使 你 的 怒 氣 和 忿 怒 轉 離 你 的 城 耶 路 撒 冷 ， 就 是 你 的 聖 山 。 耶 路 撒 冷 和 你 的 子 民 ， 因 我 們 的 罪 惡 和 我 們 列 祖 的 罪 孽 被 四 圍 的 人 羞 辱 。 | "O Lord, in accordance with all Your righteous acts, let now Your anger and Your wrath turn away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; for because of our sins and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your peoplehave become a reproach to all those around us. | Lord, according to all thy righteousnesses, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain; for because of our sins, and because of the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people [are become] a reproach to all round about us. | `O Lord, according to all Thy righteous acts, let turn back, I pray Thee, Thine anger and Thy fury from Thy city Jerusalem, Thy holy mount, for by our sins, and by the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Thy people [are] for a reproach to all our neighbours; |
| 9. | 17. | 我 們 的 神 啊 ， 現 在 求 你 垂 聽 僕 人 的 祈 禱 懇 求 ， 為 自 己 使 臉 光 照 你 荒 涼 的 聖 所 。 | "So now, our God, listen to the prayer of Your servant and to his supplications, and for Your sake, O Lord, let Your face shine on Your desolate sanctuary. | And now, our God, hearken to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake. | and now, hearken, O our God, unto the prayer of Thy servant, and unto his supplication, and cause Thy face to shine on Thy sanctuary that [is] desolate, for the Lord's sake. |
| 9. | 18. | 我 的 神 啊 ， 求 你 側 耳 而 聽 ， 睜 眼 而 看 ， 眷 顧 我 們 荒 涼 之 地 和 稱 為 你 名 下 的 城 。 我 們 在 你 面 前 懇 求 ， 原 不 是 因 自 己 的 義 ， 乃 因 你 的 大 憐 憫 。 | "O my God, incline Your ear and hear! Open Your eyes and see our desolations and the city which is called by Your name; for we are not presenting our supplications before You on account of any merits of our own, but on account of Your great compassion. | Incline thine ear, O my God, and hear; open thine eyes and behold our desolations, and the city that is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee because of our righteousnesses, but because of thy manifold mercies. | `Incline, O my God, Thine ear, and hear, open Thine eyes and see our desolations, and the city on which Thy name is called; for not for our righteous acts are we causing our supplications to fall before Thee, but for Thy mercies that [are] many. |
| 9. | 19. | 求 主 垂 聽 ， 求 主 赦 免 ， 求 主 應 允 而 行 ， 為 你 自 己 不 要 遲 延 。 我 的 神 啊 ， 因 這 城 和 這 民 都 是 稱 為 你 名 下 的 。 | "O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and take action! For Your own sake, O my God, do not delay, because Your city and Your people are called by Your name." | Lord, hear! Lord, forgive!

| 9. | 20. | 我 說 話 ， 禱 告 ， 承 認 我 的 罪 和 本 國 之 民 以 色 列 的 罪 ， 為 我 神 的 聖 山 ， 在 耶 和 華 ─ 我 神 面 前 懇 求 。 | Now while I was speaking and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God in behalf of the holy mountain of my God, | And whilst I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before Jehovah my God for the holy mountain of my God; | And while I am speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin, and the sin of my people Israel, and causing my supplication to fall before Jehovah my God, for the holy mount of my God, |
| 9. | 21. | 我 正 禱 告 的 時 候 ， 先 前 在 異 象 中 所 見 的 那 位 加 百 列 ， 奉 命 迅 速 飛 來 ， 約 在 獻 晚 祭 的 時 候 ， 按 手 在 我 身 上 。 | while I was still speaking in prayer, then the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision previously, came to me in myextreme weariness about the time of the evening offering. | whilst I was yet speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, flying swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation. | yea, while I am speaking in prayer, then that one Gabriel, whom I had seen in vision at the commencement, being caused to fly swiftly, is coming unto me at the time of the evening present. |
| 9. | 22. | 他 指 教 我 說 ： 但 以 理 啊 ， 現 在 我 出 來 要 使 你 有 智 慧 ， 有 聰 明 。 | He gave me instruction and talked with me and said, "O Daniel, I have now come forth to give you insight with understanding. | And he informed [me], and talked with me, and said, Daniel, I am now come forth to make thee skilful of understanding. | And he giveth understanding, and speaketh with me, and saith, `O Daniel, now I have come forth to cause thee to consider understanding wisely; |
| 9. | 23. | 你 初 懇 求 的 時 候 ， 就 發 出 命 令 ， 我 來 告 訴 你 ， 因 你 大 蒙 眷 愛 ； 所 以 你 要 思 想 明 白 這 以 下 的 事 和 異 象 。 | "At the beginning of your supplications the command was issued, and I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed; so give heed to the message and gain understanding of the vision. | At the beginning of thy supplications the word went forth, and I am come to declare [it]; for thou art one greatly beloved.

| 9. | 24. | 為 你 本 國 之 民 和 你 聖 城 ， 已 經 定 了 七 十 個 七 。 要 止 住 罪 過 ， 除 淨 罪 惡 ， 贖 盡 罪 孽 ， 引 進 （ 或 譯 ： 彰 顯 ） 永 義 ， 封 住 異 象 和 預 言 ， 並 膏 至 聖 者 （ 者 ： 或 譯 所 ） 。 | "Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place. | Seventy weeks are apportioned out upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to close the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make expiation for iniquity, and to bring in the righteousness of the ages, and to seal the vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies. | `Seventy weeks are determined for thy people, and for thy holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in righteousness age-during, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies. |

| 9. | 27. | 一 七 之 內 ， 他 必 與 許 多 人 堅 定 盟 約 ； 一 七 之 半 ， 他 必 使 祭 祀 與 供 獻 止 息 。 那 行 毀 壞 可 憎 的 （ 或 譯 ： 使 地 荒 涼 的 ） 如 飛 而 來 ， 並 且 有 忿 怒 傾 在 那 行 毀 壞 的 身 上 （ 或 譯 ： 傾 在 那 荒 涼 之 地 ） ， 直 到 所 定 的 結 局 。 | "And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate." | And he shall confirm a covenant with the many [for] one week; and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and because of the protection of abominations [there shall be] a desolator, even until that the consumption and what is determined shall be poured out upon the desolate. | And he hath strengthened a covenant with many -- one week, and [in] the midst of the week he causeth sacrifice and present to cease, and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate, even till the consummation, and that which is determined is poured on the desolate one.' |
| 10. | 1. | 波 斯 王 古 列 第 三 年 ， 有 事 顯 給 稱 為 伯 提 沙 撒 的 但 以 理 。 這 事 是 真 的 ， 是 指 著 大 爭 戰 ； 但 以 理 通 達 這 事 ， 明 白 這 異 象 。 | In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, who was named Belteshazzar; and the message was true and one of great conflict, but he understood the message and had an understanding of the vision. | In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing is true, but the appointed time of trial is long; and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision. | In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a thing is revealed to Daniel, whose name is called Belteshazzar, and the thing [is] true, and the warfare [is] great: and he hath understood the thing, and hath understanding about the appearance. |
| 10. | 2. | 當 那 時 ， 我 ─ 但 以 理 悲 傷 了 三 個 七 日 。 | In those days, I, Daniel, had been mourning for three entire weeks. | In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks: | `In those days, I, Daniel, have been mourning three weeks of days; |

| 10. | 6. | 他 身 體 如 水 蒼 玉 ， 面 貌 如 閃 電 ， 眼 目 如 火 把 ， 手 和 腳 如 光 明 的 銅 ， 說 話 的 聲 音 如 大 眾 的 聲 音 。 | His body also was like beryl, his face had the appearance of lightning, his eyes were like flaming torches, his arms and feet like the gleam of polished bronze, and the sound of his words like the sound of a tumult. | and his body was like a chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet as the look of burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. | and his body as a beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet as the aspect of bright brass, and the voice of his words as the voice of a multitude. |
| 10. | 7. | 這 異 象 惟 有 我 ─ 但 以 理 一 人 看 見 ， 同 著 我 的 人 沒 有 看 見 。 他 們 卻 大 大 戰 兢 ， 逃 跑 隱 藏 ， | Now I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, while the men who were with me did not see the vision; nevertheless, a great dread fell on them, and they ran away to hide themselves. | And I Daniel alone saw the vision; and the men that were with me saw not the vision, but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves. | `And I have seen -- I, Daniel, by myself -- the appearance: and the men who have been with me have not seen the appearance, but a great trembling hath fallen on them, and they flee to be hidden; |
| 10. | 8. | 只 剩 下 我 一 人 。 我 見 了 這 大 異 象 便 渾 身 無 力 ， 面 貌 失 色 ， 毫 無 氣 力 。 | So I was left alone and saw this great vision; yet no strength was left in me, for my natural color turned to a deathly pallor, and I retained no strength. | And I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; and my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength. | and I have been left by myself, and I see this great appearance, and there hath been no power left in me, and my honour hath been turned in me to corruption, yea, I have not retained power. |
| 10. | 9. | 我 卻 聽 見 他 說 話 的 聲 音 ， 一 聽 見 就 面 伏 在 地 沉 睡 了 。 | But I heard the sound of his words; and as soon as I heard the sound of his words, I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face to the ground. | And I heard the voice of his words; and when I heard the voice of his words, I fell into a deep stupor on my face, and my face to the ground. | `And I hear the voice of his words, and when I hear the voice of his words, then I have been in a trance on my face, and my face [is] to the earth; |

| 10. | 11. | 他 對 我 說 ： 大 蒙 眷 愛 的 但 以 理 啊 ， 要 明 白 我 與 你 所 說 的 話 ， 只 管 站 起 來 ， 因 為 我 現 在 奉 差 遣 來 到 你 這 裡 。 他 對 我 說 這 話 ， 我 便 戰 戰 兢 兢 地 立 起 來 。 | He said to me, "O Daniel, man of high esteem, understand the words that I am about to tell you and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you." And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood up trembling. | And he said unto me, O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words which I speak unto thee, and stand upright; for unto thee am I now sent.

| 10. | 15. | 他 向 我 這 樣 說 ， 我 就 臉 面 朝 地 ， 啞 口 無 聲 。 | When he had spoken to me according to these words, I turned my face toward the ground and became speechless. | And as he was speaking with me according to these words, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb. | `And when he speaketh with me about these things, I have set my face toward the earth, and have been silent; |
| 10. | 16. | 不 料 ， 有 一 位 像 人 的 ， 摸 我 的 嘴 唇 ， 我 便 開 口 向 那 站 在 我 面 前 的 說 ： 我 主 啊 ， 因 見 這 異 象 ， 我 大 大 愁 苦 ， 毫 無 氣 力 。 | And behold, one who resembled a human being was touching my lips; then I opened my mouth and spoke and said to him who was standing before me, "O my lord, as a result of the vision anguish has come upon me, and I have retained no strength. | And behold, one after the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips; and I opened my mouth and spoke, and said unto him that stood before me, My lord, by reason of the vision my pains are turned upon me, and I retain no strength. | and lo, as the manner of the sons of men, he is striking against my lips, and I open my mouth, and I speak, and say unto him who is standing over-against me: My lord, by the appearance turned have been my pangs against me, and I have retained no power. |
| 10. | 17. | 我 主 的 僕 人 怎 能 與 我 主 說 話 呢 ？ 我 一 見 異 象 就 渾 身 無 力 ， 毫 無 氣 息 。 | "For how can such a servant of my lord talk with such as my lord? As for me, there remains just now no strength in me, nor has any breath been left in me." | And how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remaineth no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me. | And how is the servant of this my lord able to speak with this my lord? as for me, henceforth there remaineth in me no power, yea, breath hath not been left in me. |
| 10. | 18. | 有 一 位 形 狀 像 人 的 又 摸 我 ， 使 我 有 力 量 。 | Then this one with human appearance touched me again and strengthened me. | Then there touched me again one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me; | `And he addeth, and striketh against me, as the appearance of a man, and strengtheneth me, |
| 10. | 19. | 他 說 ： 大 蒙 眷 愛 的 人 哪 ， 不 要 懼 怕 ， 願 你 平 安 ！ 你 總 要 堅 強 。 他 一 向 我 說 話 ， 我 便 覺 得 有 力 量 ， 說 ： 我 主 請 說 ， 因 你 使 我 有 力 量 。 | He said, "O man of high esteem, do not be afraid. Peace be with you; take courage and be courageous!" Now as soon as he spoke to me, I received strength and said, "May my lord speak, for you have strengthened me." | and he said, Fear not, man greatly beloved; peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And as he was speaking with me I was strengthened, and I said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me. | and he saith: Do not fear, O man greatly desired, peace to thee, be strong, yea, be strong; and when he speaketh with me, I have strengthened myself, and I say, Let my lord speak, for thou hast strengthened me. |
| 10. | 20. | 他 就 說 ： 你 知 道 我 為 何 來 見 你 麼 ？ 現 在 我 要 回 去 與 波 斯 的 魔 君 爭 戰 ， 我 去 後 ， 希 利 尼 （ 原 文 是 雅 完 ） 的 魔 君 必 來 。 | Then he said, "Do you understand why I came to you? But I shall now return to fight against the prince of Persia; so I am going forth, and behold, the prince of Greece is about to come. | And he said, Knowest thou wherefore I am come unto thee? And now I return to fight with the prince of Persia; and when I go forth, behold, the prince of Greece shall come. | And he saith, Hast thou known why I have come unto thee? and now I turn back to fight with the head of Persia; yea, I am going forth, and lo, the head of Javan hath come; |
| 10. | 21. | 但 我 要 將 那 錄 在 真 確 書 上 的 事 告 訴 你 。 除 了 你 們 的 大 君 米 迦 勒 之 外 ， 沒 有 幫 助 我 抵 擋 這 兩 魔 君 的 。 | "However, I will tell you what is inscribed in the writing of truth. Yet there is no one who stands firmly with me against these forcesexcept Michael your prince. | However, I will declare unto thee that which is set down in the scripture of truth; and there is not one that sheweth himself strong with me against these, but Michael your prince. | but I declare to thee that which is noted down in the Writing of Truth, and there is not one strengthening himself with me, concerning these, except Michael your head. |
| 11. | 1. | 又 說 ： 當 瑪 代 王 大 利 烏 元 年 ， 我 曾 起 來 扶 助 米 迦 勒 ， 使 他 堅 強 。 | "In the first year of Darius the Mede, I arose to be an encouragement and a protection for him. | And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, I stood to confirm and to strengthen him. | `And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, my standing [is] for a strengthener, and for a stronghold to him; |
| 11. | 2. | 現 在 我 將 真 事 指 示 你 ： 波 斯 還 有 三 王 興 起 ， 第 四 王 必 富 足 遠 勝 諸 王 。 他 因 富 足 成 為 強 盛 ， 就 必 激 動 大 眾 攻 擊 希 利 尼 國 。 | "And now I will tell you the truth. Behold, three more kings are going to arise in Persia. Then a fourth will gain far more riches than all of them; as soon as he becomes strong through his riches, he will arouse the whole empire against the realm of Greece. | And now will I declare unto thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall enrich himself with great riches more than all; and when he hath become strong through his riches, he shall stir up all against the realm of Greece. | and, now, truth I declare to thee, Lo, yet three kings are standing for Persia, and the fourth doth become far richer than all, and according to his strength by his riches he stirreth up the whole, with the kingdom of Javan. |
| 11. | 3. | 必 有 一 個 勇 敢 的 王 興 起 ， 執 掌 大 權 ， 隨 意 而 行 。 | "And a mighty king will arise, and he will rule with great authority and do as he pleases. | And a mighty king shall stand up that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will. | And a mighty king hath stood, and he hath ruled a great dominion, and hath done according to his will; |

| 11. | 5. | 南 方 的 王 必 強 盛 ， 他 將 帥 中 必 有 一 個 比 他 更 強 盛 ， 執 掌 權 柄 ， 他 的 權 柄 甚 大 。 | "Then the king of the South will grow strong, along with one of his princes who will gain ascendancy over him and obtain dominion; his domain will be a great dominion indeed. | And the king of the south, who is one of his princes, shall be strong; but [another] shall be stronger than he, and have dominion: his dominion shall be a great dominion. | `And a king of the south -- even of his princes -- doth become strong, and doth prevail against him, and hath ruled; a great dominion [is] his dominion. |
| 11. | 6. | 過 些 年 後 ， 他 們 必 互 相 連 合 ， 南 方 王 的 女 兒 必 就 了 北 方 王 來 立 約 ； 但 這 女 子 幫 助 之 力 存 立 不 住 ， 王 和 他 所 倚 靠 之 力 也 不 能 存 立 。 這 女 子 和 引 導 他 來 的 ， 並 生 他 的 ， 以 及 當 時 扶 助 他 的 ， 都 必 交 與 死 地 。 | "After some years they will form an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the South will come to the king of the North to carry out a peaceful arrangement.

| 11. | 37. | 他 必 不 顧 他 列 祖 的 神 ， 也 不 顧 婦 女 所 羨 慕 的 神 ， 無 論 何 神 他 都 不 顧 ； 因 為 他 必 自 大 ， 高 過 一 切 。 | "He will show no regard for the gods of his fathers or for the desire of women, nor will he show regard for any other god; for he will magnify himself above them all. | And he will not regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women; nor regard any +god: for he will magnify himself above all. | And unto the God of his fathers he doth not attend, nor to the desire of women, yea, to any god he doth not attend, for against all he magnifieth himself. |
| 11. | 38. | 他 倒 要 敬 拜 保 障 的 神 ， 用 金 、 銀 、 寶 石 和 可 愛 之 物 敬 奉 他 列 祖 所 不 認 識 的 神 。 | "But instead he will honor a god of fortresses, a god whom his fathers did not know; he will honor him with gold, silver, costly stones and treasures. | And in his place will he honour the +god of fortresses; and a +god whom his fathers knew not will he honour with gold and silver, and with precious stones and pleasant things. | And to the god of strongholds, on his station, he giveth honour; yea, to a god whom his fathers knew not he giveth honour, with gold, and with silver, and with precious stone, and with desirable things. |
| 11. | 39. | 他 必 靠 外 邦 神 的 幫 助 ， 攻 破 最 堅 固 的 保 障 。 凡 承 認 他 的 ， 他 必 將 榮 耀 加 給 他 們 ， 使 他 們 管 轄 許 多 人 ， 又 為 賄 賂 分 地 與 他 們 。 | "He will take action against the strongest of fortresses with the help of a foreign god; he will give great honor to those who acknowledge him and will cause them to rule over the many, and will parcel out land for a price. | And he will practise in the strongholds of fortresses with a strange +god: whoso acknowledgeth him will he increase with glory; and he shall cause them to rule over the many, and shall divide the land [to them] for a reward. | And he hath dealt in the fortresses of the strongholds with a strange god whom he hath acknowledged; he multiplieth honour, and hath caused them to rule over many, and the ground he apportioneth at a price. |
| 11. | 40. | 到 末 了 ， 南 方 王 要 與 他 交 戰 。 北 方 王 必 用 戰 車 、 馬 兵 ， 和 許 多 戰 船 ， 勢 如 暴 風 來 攻 擊 他 ， 也 必 進 入 列 國 ， 如 洪 水 氾 濫 。 | "At the end time the king of the South will collide with him, and the king of the North will storm against him with chariots, with horsemen and with many ships; and he will enter countries, overflow them and pass through. | And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him; and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and overflow and pass through. | `And at the time of the end, push himself forward with him doth a king of the south, and storm against him doth a king of the north, with chariot, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he hath come in to the lands, and hath overflowed, and passed over, |
| 11. | 41. | 又 必 進 入 那 榮 美 之 地 ， 有 許 多 國 就 被 傾 覆 ， 但 以 東 人 、 摩 押 人 ， 和 一 大 半 亞 捫 人 必 脫 離 他 的 手 。 | "He will also enter the Beautiful Land, and many countries will fall; but these will be rescued out of his hand: Edom, Moab and the foremost of the sons of Ammon. | And he shall enter into the land of beauty, and many [countries] shall be overthrown; but these shall escape out of his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon. | and hath come into the desirable land, and many do stumble, and these escape from his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the sons of Ammon. |
| 11. | 42. | 他 必 伸 手 攻 擊 列 國 ； 埃 及 地 也 不 得 脫 離 。 | "Then he will stretch out his hand againstother countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape. | And he shall stretch forth his hand upon the countries; and the land of Egypt shall not escape. | `And he sendeth forth his hand upon the lands, and the land of Egypt is not for an escape; |
| 11. | 43. | 他 必 把 持 埃 及 的 金 銀 財 寶 和 各 樣 的 寶 物 。 呂 彼 亞 人 和 古 實 人 都 必 跟 從 他 。 | "But he will gain control over the hidden treasures of gold and silver and over all the precious things of Egypt; and Libyans and Ethiopians will follow at his heels. | And he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps. | and he hath ruled over treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the desirable things of Egypt, and Lubim and Cushim [are] at his steps. |
| 11. | 44. | 但 從 東 方 和 北 方 必 有 消 息 擾 亂 他 ， 他 就 大 發 烈 怒 出 去 ， 要 將 多 人 殺 滅 淨 盡 。 | "But rumors from the East and from the North will disturb him, and he will go forth with great wrath to destroy and annihilate many. | But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him; and he shall go forth with great fury to exterminate, and utterly to destroy many. | `And reports trouble him out of the east and out of the north, and he hath gone forth in great fury to destroy, and to devote many to destruction; |
| 11. | 45. | 他 必 在 海 和 榮 美 的 聖 山 中 間 設 立 他 如 宮 殿 的 帳 幕 ； 然 而 到 了 他 的 結 局 ， 必 無 人 能 幫 助 他 。 | "He will pitch the tents of his royal pavilion between the seas and the beautiful Holy Mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him. | And he shall plant the tents of his palace between the sea and the mountain of holy beauty; and he shall come to his end, and there shall be none to help him. | and he planteth the tents of his palace between the seas and the holy desirable mountain, and hath come unto his end, and there is no helper to him. |
| 12. | 1. | 那 時 ， 保 佑 你 本 國 之 民 的 天 使 長 （ 原 文 是 大 君 ） 米 迦 勒 必 站 起 來 ， 並 且 有 大 艱 難 ， 從 有 國 以 來 直 到 此 時 ， 沒 有 這 樣 的 。 你 本 國 的 民 中 ， 凡 名 錄 在 冊 上 的 ， 必 得 拯 救 。 | "Now at that time Michael, the great prince who stands guard over the sons of your people, will arise. And there will be a time of distress such as never occurred since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the book, will be rescued. | And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince who standeth for the children of thy people; and there shall be a time of distress, such as never was since there was a nation until that time.

| 12. | 4. | 但 以 理 啊 ， 你 要 隱 藏 這 話 ， 封 閉 這 書 ， 直 到 末 時 。 必 有 多 人 來 往 奔 跑 （ 或 譯 ： 切 心 研 究 ） ， 知 識 就 必 增 長 。 | "But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of time; many will go back and forth, and knowledge will increase." | And thou, Daniel, close the words, and seal the book, till the time of the end.

| 12. | 5. | 我 ─ 但 以 理 觀 看 ， 見 另 有 兩 個 人 站 立 ： 一 個 在 河 這 邊 ， 一 個 在 河 那 邊 。 | Then I, Daniel, looked and behold, two others were standing, one on this bank of the river and the other on that bank of the river. | And I Daniel looked, and behold, there stood other two, the one on this side, on the bank of the river, and the other on that side, on the bank of the river. | And I have looked -- I, Daniel -- and lo, two others are standing, one here at the edge of the flood, and one there at the edge of the flood, |
| 12. | 6. | 有 一 個 問 那 站 在 河 水 以 上 、 穿 細 麻 衣 的 說 ： 這 奇 異 的 事 到 幾 時 才 應 驗 呢 ？ | And one said to the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, "How long will it be until the end of thesewonders?" | And he said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, How long [is it to] the end of these wonders? | and he saith to the one clothed in linen, who [is] upon the waters of the flood, `Till when [is] the end of these wonders?' |
| 12. | 7. | 我 聽 見 那 站 在 河 水 以 上 、 穿 細 麻 衣 的 ， 向 天 舉 起 左 右 手 ， 指 著 活 到 永 遠 的 主 起 誓 說 ： 要 到 一 載 、 二 載 、 半 載 ， 打 破 聖 民 權 力 的 時 候 ， 這 一 切 事 就 都 應 驗 了 。 | I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, as he raised his right hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever that it would be for a time, times, and half a time;and as soon as they finish shattering the power of the holy people, all these eventswill be completed. | And I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river; and he held up his right hand and his left hand unto the heavens, and swore by him that liveth for ever that it is for a time, times, and a half; and when the scattering of the power of the holy people shall be accomplished, all these things shall be finished. | And I hear the one clothed in linen, who [is] upon the waters of the flood, and he doth lift up his right hand and his left unto the heavens, and sweareth by Him who is living to the age, that, `After a time, times, and a half, and at the completion of the scattering of the power of the holy people, finished are all these.' |
| 12. | 8. | 我 聽 見 這 話 ， 卻 不 明 白 ， 就 說 ： 我 主 啊 ， 這 些 事 的 結 局 是 怎 樣 呢 ？ | As for me, I heard but could not understand; so I said, "My lord, what will be the outcome of these events?" | And I heard, but I understood not. And I said, My lord, what shall be the end of these things? | And I have heard, and I do not understand, and I say, `O my lord, what [is] the latter end of these?' |
| 12. | 9. | 他 說 ： 但 以 理 啊 ， 你 只 管 去 ； 因 為 這 話 已 經 隱 藏 封 閉 ， 直 到 末 時 。 | He said, "Go your way, Daniel, for thesewords are concealed and sealed up until the end time. | And he said, Go thy way, Daniel; for these words are closed and sealed till the time of the end. | And he saith, `Go, Daniel; for hidden and sealed [are] the things till the time of the end; |
| 12. | 10. | 必 有 許 多 人 使 自 己 清 淨 潔 白 ， 且 被 熬 煉 ； 但 惡 人 仍 必 行 惡 ， 一 切 惡 人 都 不 明 白 ， 惟 獨 智 慧 人 能 明 白 。 | "Many will be purged, purified and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but those who have insight will understand. | Many shall be purified, and be made white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. | Purify themselves, yea, make themselves white, yea, refined are many: and the wicked have done wickedly, and none of the wicked understand, and those acting wisely do understand; |
| 12. | 11. | 從 除 掉 常 獻 的 燔 祭 ， 並 設 立 那 行 毀 壞 可 憎 之 物 的 時 候 ， 必 有 一 千 二 百 九 十 日 。 | "From the time that the regular sacrifice is abolished and the abomination of desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. | And from the time that the continual [sacrifice] is taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, [there shall be] a thousand, two hundred, and ninety days. | and from the time of the turning aside of the perpetual [sacrifice], and to the giving out of the desolating abomination, [are] days a thousand, two hundred, and ninety. |
| 12. | 12. | 等 到 一 千 三 百 三 十 五 日 的 ， 那 人 便 為 有 福 。 | "How blessed is he who keeps waiting and attains to the 1,335 days! | Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days! | O the blessedness of him who is waiting earnestly, and doth come to the days, a thousand, three hundred, thirty and five. |
| 12. | 13. | 你 且 去 等 候 結 局 ， 因 為 你 必 安 歇 。 到 了 末 期 ， 你 必 起 來 ， 享 受 你 的 福 分 。 | "But as for you, go your way to the end; then you will enter into rest and rise againfor your allotted portion at the end of the age." | But do thou go thy way until the end; and thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days. | And thou, go on to the end, then thou dost rest, and dost stand in thy lot at the end of the days.' |
