14 Naizvozvo iye akati kwandiri: “Kusvikira madekwana nemangwanani zviuru zviviri nemazana matatu zvakwana; uye nzvimbo tsvene ichava sezvainofanira kuva.”+
15 Zvino ini Dhanieri pandakanga ndichiona zvairatidzwa uye ndichitsvaka kunzwisisa,+ chokwadi, tarira! paiva nomumwe munhu akanga akafanana nomurume aiva amire pamberi pangu.+
16 Ndakanzwa inzwi romunhu wepanyika aiva pakati porwizi rwaUrai,+ akashevedzera, akati: “Gabrieri,+ ita kuti uyo akamira uko anzwisise chinhu chakaonekwa.”+
17 Naizvozvo akauya pedyo nepandakanga ndakamira, asi paakasvika ndakatya zvokuti ndakawira pasi nechiso changu. Iye akati kwandiri: “Haiwa mwanakomana womunhu,+ nzwisisa+ kuti zvakaratidzwa ndezvomunguva yokuguma.”+

20 “Gondohwe rawakaona raiva nenyanga mbiri rinomirira madzimambo eMedhiya nePezhiya.+
21 Nhongo ine mvere inomirira mambo weGirisi;+ uye nyanga huru yaiva pakati pemaziso ayo inomirira mambo wokutanga.+
22 Zvino iyoyo zvayakatyoka, panzvimbo payo pakazobuda ina,+ umambo huna huchabva murudzi rwake huchamuka, asi kwete nesimba rake.
23 “Zvino pakuguma kwoumambo hwawo, vadariki zvavanotadza zvizere, pachamuka mambo ane chiso chinotyisa, anonzwisisa mashoko akaoma.+
24 Simba rake richava guru, asi hazvizoitwi nesimba rake.+ Achaparadza+ nenzira inoshamisa, uye achabudirira oita zvinoshanda. Achaparadza vane simba, nevanhu vatsvene.+
25 Achaita kuti unyengeri hubudirire muruoko rwake+ maererano nenjere dzake. Achazvitutumadza kwazvo+ mumwoyo make, uye panguva yokusanetseka+ achaparadza vakawanda. Achasimuka kuti arwise Muchinda wemachinda,+ asi achaparadzwa zvisingaitwi noruoko rwomunhu.+
26 “Zvino chinhu chakaonekwa pamusoro pemadekwana nemangwanani, chakataurwa, ndechechokwadi.+ Asi iwe, chengeta zvawakaratidzwa zvakavanzika, nokuti ndezvemazuva mazhinji achauya.”+
27 Zvino ini, Dhanieri, ndakanzwa ndapera simba, ndikarwara kwemazuva.+ Ndakazomuka, ndikaita basa ramambo;+ asi ndakaramba ndisina simba pamusoro pechinhu chandakanga ndaona, uye hapana kana akanga achichinzwisisa.+
