1 El tercer año de Ciro, rey de Persia, fue revelada Palabra a Daniel, llamado Beltsasar, Palabra verdadera con respecto a un gran conflicto. Él comprendió la Palabra y tuvo inteligencia en la visión.
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the message was true, even a great warfare. He understood the message, and had understanding of the vision.
2 En aquellos días, yo, Daniel, estuve afligido por espacio de tres semanas.
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks.
3 No comí manjar delicado, ni carne ni vino entraron en mi boca, ni me ungí con ungüento, hasta que se cumplieron tres semanas completas.
3 I ate no pleasant food. No meat or wine came into my mouth. I didn’t anoint myself at all, until three whole weeks were fulfilled.
4 El día 24 del mes primero yo estaba en la orilla del gran río Hidequel.
4 In the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel,
5 Al levantar mis ojos miré, y vi a un varón vestido de lino blanco, ceñida su cintura con oro de Ufaz.
5 I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a man clothed in linen, whose waist was adorned with pure gold of Uphaz.
6 Su cuerpo era como crisólito, su rostro como un relámpago y sus ojos como antorchas de fuego. Sus brazos y pies tenían la refulgencia del bronce incandescente, y el sonido de sus palabras era como el estruendo de una multitud.
6 His body also was like beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches. His arms and his feet were like burnished bronze. The voice of his words was like the voice of a multitude.
7 Solo yo, Daniel, vi aquella visión. Los hombres que estaban conmigo no la vieron. Pero un gran temor cayó sobre ellos, y huyeron para esconderse.
7 I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me didn’t see the vision, but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves.
8 Yo quedé solo y vi esta gran visión. No quedó fuerza en mí, porque mi vigor se cambió en fragilidad. Me quedé sin vigor.
8 So I was left alone and saw this great vision. No strength remained in me; for my face grew deathly pale, and I retained no strength.
9 Pero oí el sonido de sus palabras. Y al oírlo, me postré en tierra con un sueño profundo.
9 Yet I heard the voice of his words. When I heard the voice of his words, then I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
10 Sin embargo, una mano me tocó. Temblaba y me puso sobre mis manos y mis rodillas.
10 Behold, a hand touched me, which set me on my knees and on the palms of my hands.
11 Y me dijo: Daniel, varón muy amado, está atento a las palabras que te hablaré. Ponte derecho sobre tus pies, porque ahora fui enviado a ti. Y cuando me dijo esa palabra, me puse en pie y temblaba.
11 He said to me, “Daniel, you greatly beloved man, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have been sent to you, now.” When he had spoken this word to me, I stood trembling.
12 Me dijo: Daniel, no temas, porque desde el primer día cuando dispusiste tu corazón para entender y humillarte ante tu ʼElohim, tus palabras fueron oídas, y vine a causa de ellas.
12 Then he said to me, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel; for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. I have come for your words’ sake.
13 Pero el príncipe del reino de Persia se me opuso 21 días. Pero mira, Miguel, uno de los principales arcángeles, vino para ayudarme, y yo quedé allí con los reyes de Persia.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; but, behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me because I remained there with the kings of Persia.
14 Vine para informarte lo que vendrá a tu pueblo en los últimos días, porque la visión es para aquellos días.
14 Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision is yet for many days.”
15 Mientras él me decía estas palabras, yo volví mi rostro hacia la tierra y enmudecí.
15 When he had spoken these words to me, I set my face toward the ground and was mute.
16 Pero ciertamente uno que parecía un ser humano tocó mis labios. Entonces abrí mi boca y hablé, y dije al que estaba delante de mí: ʼadón mío, a causa de la visión me vinieron dolores y no retuve fuerza.
16 Behold, one in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth, and spoke and said to him who stood before me, “My lord, by reason of the vision my sorrows have overtaken me, and I retain no strength.
17 ¿Cómo puede el esclavo de mi ʼadón hablar con mi ʼadón? Porque en cuanto a mí, ahora mismo no me queda fuerza ni aliento.
17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? For as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me. There was no breath left in me.”
18 Entonces, aquel que tenía semejanza de hombre me tocó otra vez, me fortaleció
18 Then one like the appearance of a man touched me again, and he strengthened me.
19 y me dijo: Muy amado, no temas. La paz sea contigo. Esfuérzate y aliéntate. Y mientras él me hablaba, recobré las fuerzas y dije: Que hable mi ʼadón, porque me fortaleciste.
19 He said, “Greatly beloved man, don’t be afraid. Peace be to you. Be strong. Yes, be strong.” When he spoke to me, I was strengthened, and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
20 Entonces él preguntó: ¿Entiendes por qué vine a ti? Ahora tengo que volver para luchar contra el príncipe de Persia, y ciertamente el príncipe de Grecia viene pronto.
20 Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? Now I will return to fight with the prince of Persia. When I go out, behold, the prince of Greece will come.
21 Pero te declararé lo que está escrito en el rollo de la verdad. Nadie me ayuda contra ellos, sino Miguel, el príncipe de ustedes.
21 But I will tell you that which is inscribed in the writing of truth. There is no one who holds with me against these but Michael your prince.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Gabriel appeared, and Daniel fell down: and of what nature or in what guise was he that appeared? His countenance was like lightning; not like the sun: and his eyes as lamps of fire, not as a furnace of fire: and the voice of his words as the voice of a multitude, not as the voice of twelve legions …
