但以理书 8
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
公绵羊和公山羊的异象
8 在看见先前的异象之后，我但以理在伯沙撒王执政第三年又看见一个异象。 2 我在异象中看见自己在以拦省的书珊城，又看见自己站在乌莱河畔。 3 我举目观看，见一只长着长角的公绵羊站在河边，其中一角比另一角长，较长的角是后长出来的。 4 我看见这公绵羊向西方、北方和南方顶撞，没有兽能抵挡它，或逃脱它的威力。它随心所欲，狂妄自大。
5 我正沉思的时候，忽然从西面出现一只公山羊，穿越大地，脚不沾地。它双眼之间有一个大角。 6 这公山羊来到我之前看见的那只站在河边的双角公绵羊那里，愤怒地向它顶去。 7 我看见公山羊愤怒地顶向公绵羊，攻击它，折断了它的双角。公绵羊无力抵挡，被撞倒在地，践踏在脚下，无人能救它脱离公山羊的威力。 8 公山羊极其狂妄自大。但正值鼎盛之时，它的大角突然折断，在原处又长出四个奇特的角，朝着天的四方。 9 其中一个角又长出一个小角，向南方、东方和佳美之地[a]扩张势力。 10 它逐渐强大，高及天军，将一些天军和星宿抛到地上，用脚践踏。 11 它狂妄自大，要与天军的统帅比高，它废除日常献给祂的祭，毁坏祂的圣所。 12 因为反叛的缘故，天军和日常所献的祭都交给了它。它将真理抛在地上，它所行的无不顺利。
13 接着，我听见一位圣者在说话，另一位圣者问他：“异象中出现的有关日常所献的祭，毁灭性的反叛和践踏圣所及天军的事要持续多久呢？” 14 他对我说：“两千三百个昼夜。之后，圣所才会洁净。”
解释异象
15 我但以理看见这异象，正想明白它的意思，忽然有一个外貌像人的站在我面前。 16 我听见有人声从乌莱河两岸之间呼喊：“加百列啊，要让此人明白这异象。” 17 于是，他朝我站的地方走来，当他走来的时候，我吓得俯伏在地。他对我说：“人子啊，你要明白，这异象是关于末后的时期。” 18 他和我说话的时候，我伏在地上昏睡过去，他便轻拍我，扶我起来， 19 对我说：“我要告诉你将来上帝发烈怒时所发生的事，因为这异象是关于那定好的末后时期。 20 你看见的那只有两角的公绵羊指玛代和波斯的诸王。 21 公山羊指希腊王，在它双眼之间的大角指第一个王。 22 大角折断后，从原处长出四个角表示四个国必从这国兴起，但都不及这国强大。 23 在四国的末期，人们恶贯满盈的时候，必有一个面貌凶恶、诡计多端的王兴起。 24 他势力强大，却不是靠自己的力量。他必带来可怕的毁灭，而且凡事亨通，他必毁灭强者和圣民。 25 他利用诡计和骗术得逞，心高气傲，乘人不备突然毁灭许多人，甚至要攻击万君之君，然而他终必被击垮，但并非被人的手击垮。 26 异象中所说的两千三百个昼夜是真的。但你要保密，不可告诉别人，因为这指的是遥远的将来。”
27 我但以理精疲力尽，病了几天。后来我起来照常办理王的事务，但我对这异象感到惊奇不已，不明白它的意思。
Daniel 8
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
8 In the third year of the reign of king Baltasar, a vision appeared to me. I Daniel, after what I had seen in the beginning,
2 Saw in my vision when I was in the castle of Susa, which is in the province of Elam: and I saw in the vision that I was over the gate of Ulai.
3 And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold a ram stood before the water, having two high horns, and one higher than the other, and growing up.
4 Afterward I saw the ram pushing with his horns against the west, and against the north, and against the south: and no beasts could withstand him, nor be delivered out of his hand: and he did according to his own will, and became great.
5 And I understood: and behold a he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and he touched not the ground, and the he goat had a notable horn between his eyes.
6 And he went up to the ram that had the horns, which I had seen standing before the gate, and he ran towards him in the force of his strength.
7 And when he was come near the ram, he was enraged against him, and struck the ram: and broke his two horns, and the ram could not withstand him: and when he had cast him down on the ground, he stamped upon him, and none could deliver the ram out of his hand.
8 And the he goat became exceeding great: and when he was grown, the great horn was broken, and there came up four horns under it towards the four winds of heaven.
9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn: and it became great against the south, and against the east, and against the strength.
10 And it was magnified even unto the strength of heaven: and it threw down of the strength, and of the stars, and trod upon them.
11 And it was magnified even to the prince of the strength: and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary.
12 And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper.
13 And I heard one of the saints speaking, and one saint said to another, I know not to whom that was speaking: How long shall be the vision, concerning the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation that is made: and the sanctuary, and the strength be trodden under foot?
14 And he said to him: Unto evening and morning two thousand three hundred days: and the sanctuary shall be cleansed.
15 And it came to pass when I Daniel saw the vision, and sought the meaning, that behold there stood before me as it were the appearance of a man.
16 And I heard the voice of a man between Ulai: and he called, and said: Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
17 And he came and stood near where I stood: and when he was come, I fell on my face trembling, and he said to me: Understand, O son of man, for in the time of the end the vision shall be fulfilled.
18 And when he spoke to me I fell flat on the ground: and he touched me, and set me upright,
19 And he said to me: I will shew thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end.
20 The ram, which thou sawest with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians.
21 And the he goat, is the king of the Greeks, and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king.
22 But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength.
23 And after their reign, when iniquities shall be grown up, there shall arise a king of a shameless face, and understanding dark sentences.
24 And his power shall be strengthened, but not by his own force: and he shall lay all things waste, and shall prosper, and do more than can be believed. And he shall destroy the mighty, and the people of the saints,
25 According to his will, and craft shall be successful in his hand: and his heart shall be puffed up, and in the abundance of all things he shall kill many: and he shall rise up against the prince of princes, and shall be broken without hand.
26 And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true: thou therefore seal up the vision, because it shall come to pass after many days.
27 And I Daniel languished, and was sick for some days: and when I was risen up, I did the king's business, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none that could interpret it.
