The Bible

1

As ec y traa shen, shassee Michael seose yn ard-phrince, ta ass lieh cloan dty phobble, as hig traa seaghnagh, lheid as nagh row rieau neayr va ashoon, gys yn eer traa cheddin: as ec y traa shen bee dty phobble er ny livrey, dagh unnane vees ry-gheddyn scruit ayns y lioar.

And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

2

As nee ymmodee jeusyn, ta cadley ayns joan ny hooirey, doostey, paart gys bea dy bragh farraghtyn, as paart gys nearey as oltooan dy bragh farraghtyn.

And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

3

As nee adsyn ta creeney soilshean casley rish sollyssid yn aer, ad adsyn ta chyndaa ymmodee gys cairys, myr ny rollageyn, son dy bragh as dy bragh.

And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

4

Agh uss, O Ghaniel, jeigh seose ny goan, as seal y lioar, eer gys traa yn jerrey: nee ymmodee roie noon as noal, as bee tushtey er ny vishaghey.

But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

5

Eisht yeeagh mish Daniel, as cur-my-ner va jees elley nyn shassoo, fer er y cheu shoh jeh broogh ny hawin, as fer er y cheu elley jeh broogh ny hawin.

Then I Daniel looked, and, behold, there stood other two, the one on this side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river.

6

As dooyrt fer jeu rish y dooinney va coamrit ayns aanrit, va er ushtaghyn ny hawin? Caïd vees eh gys jerrey ny yindyssyn

And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?

7

As cheayll mee yn dooinney coamrit ayns aanrit, va er ushtaghyn ny hawin, tra chum eh seose e laue yesh, as e laue hoshtal gys niau, as loo eh liorishyn ta bio son dy bragh, dy bee eh son traa, traaghyn, as lieh traa, as tra vees eh dy slane bollagh er chooilleeney scaalhean pooar y phobble casherick, bee ooilley ny reddyn shoh jeant mie.

And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

8

As cheayll mee, agh cha hoig mee: eisht dooyrt mee, O my hiarn, cre vees jerrey ny reddyn shoh?

And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?

9

As dooyrt eh, Immee royd, Ghaniel: son ta ny goan jeight seose, as sealit, gys traa yn jerrey.

And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

10

Bee ymmodee er ny ghlenney, as jeant gial, as er ny phrowal; agh ver ny drogh-yantee rish olk; as cha jean veg jeh ny mee-chrauee toiggal, agh bee yn vooinjer chreeney toiggalagh.

Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

11

As veih yn traa, dy bee yn oural-laaoil er ny ghoaill ersooyl, as yn eajeeys dy hraartys er ny hoiaghey seose, bee thousane daa cheead as kiare-feed as jeih dy laghyn.

And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.

12

Bannit ta eshyn ta farkiaght as ta cheet gys y thousane three cheead as y wheiggoo-yeig as feedoo laa.

Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

13

As immee uss royd, derrey vees y jerrey: son bee oo ec fee, as shassoo ayns dty chronney ec jerrey ny laghyn.

But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.
