Belshazzar’s feast identifies the “hour” of the Sunday law, but it places the emphasis upon the judgment of the Republican horn. Nebuchadnezzar’s golden image in Daniel chapter three, places the same history, in the context of God’s faithful people who are then lifted up as an ensign. Daniel chapter six, addresses the same line, but addresses the role of the Protestant horn. Belshazzar is representing the “state,” and he called one thousand of his “lords.”
Cashadii Belshaasar waxay tilmaamaysaa “saacadda” sharciga Axadda, hase ahaatee waxay xoogga saartaa xukunka geeska Jamhuuriga. Taalladii dahabka ahayd ee Nebukadnesar ee ku qoran Daanyeel cutubka saddexaad, waxay dhigaysaa isla taariikhdaas iyadoo ku jirta macnaha guud ee dadka aaminka ah ee Ilaah, kuwaas oo markaas loo taago sidii calan. Daanyeel cutubka lixaad, wuxuu ka hadlayaa isla xariiqdaas, laakiin wuxuu ka hadlayaa doorka geeska Borotestaanka. Belshaasar wuxuu matalayaa “dawladda,” wuxuuna u yeedhay kun ka mid ah “sayidyadiisa.”
Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand. Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein. 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 princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them. They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone. 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. Daniel 5:1–5.
Boqor Belshaasar wuxuu amiirradiisii kunka ahaa u sameeyey diyaafad weyn, oo hortooda kunkaas ayuu khamri ku cabbay. Belshaasar, intuu khamriga dhadhaminayay, wuxuu amray in la keeno weelashii dahabka iyo lacagta ahaa oo aabbihiis Nebukadnesar ka soo qaaday macbudkii Yeruusaalem ku yiil; si boqorka, iyo amiirradiisu, iyo naagihiisu, iyo naagihiisa addoommada ahuba uga cabbaan. Markaasay keeneen weelashii dahabka ahaa oo laga soo qaaday macbudka guriga Ilaah ee Yeruusaalem ku yiil; oo boqorkii, iyo amiirradiisii, iyo naagihiisii, iyo naagihiisa addoommada ahuba way kaga cabbeen. Waxay cabbeen khamri, oo waxay ammaaneen ilaahyadii dahabka, iyo lacagta, iyo naxaasta, iyo birta, iyo qoryaha, iyo dhagaxa. Isla saacaddaas ayaa faro gacan dad ahi soo baxeen, oo waxay wax ku qoreen ka soo hor jeedka laambadda dusheeda malaasta derbiga qasriga boqorka; boqorkiina wuxuu arkay qaybtii gacanta ee wax qoraysay. Daanyeel 5:1–5.
The number “ten” represents the dragon, and one hundred, and one thousand is simply a magnification of the same symbol. In chapter six, one hundred and twenty push the deceitful law, and one hundred and twenty is a symbol for priests. Considering “line upon line,” Belshazzar’s feast is illustrating the judgment upon a corrupted statecraft, and judgment of a corrupted churchcraft. Belshazzar was drunk with the Babylonian wine, and then determined to desecrate the sacred vessels of God’s temple in Jerusalem.
Tirada “toban” waxay u taagan tahay masduulaagga, boqolna, iyo kununa waa keliya weynayn isla astaantaas ah. Cutubka lixaad, boqol iyo labaatan waxay riixayaan sharciga khiyaanada leh, boqol iyo labaatanna waa astaan wadaaddo u taagan. Marka la tixgeliyo “xarriiq xarriiq dul saaran,” diyaafaddii Belshaasar waxay muujinaysaa xukunka ku dhacaya dawladnimo fasahaadday, iyo xukunka ku dhacaya kaniisadnimo fasahaadday. Belshaasar wuxuu ku sakhraansanaa khamriga Baabuloon, dabadeedna wuxuu go’aansaday inuu nijaaseeyo weelashii quduuska ahaa ee macbudka Ilaah ee Yeruusaalem.
“The prophet says, ‘I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils’ (Revelation 18:1, 2). This is the same message that was given by the second angel. Babylon is fallen, ‘because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication’ (Revelation 14:8). What is that wine?—Her false doctrines. She has given to the world a false sabbath instead of the Sabbath of the fourth commandment, and has repeated the falsehood that Satan first told Eve in Eden—the natural immortality of the soul. Many kindred errors she has spread far and wide, ‘teaching for doctrines the commandments of men’ (Matthew 15:9).” Selected Messages, book 2, 118.
“Nebigu wuxuu leeyahay, ‘Waxaan arkay malaa’ig kale oo samada ka soo degaysa, iyadoo leh xoog weyn; oo dhulkuna wuxuu ka iftiimay ammaanteeda. Oo waxay si xoog leh ugu qaylisay cod weyn, iyadoo leh, Baabuloon tii weynayd way dhacday, way dhacday, oo waxay noqotay hoygii jinniyada’ (Muujintii 18:1, 2). Kanu waa isla farriintii uu bixiyey malaa’igtii labaad. Baabuloon way dhacday, ‘maxaa yeelay quruumaha oo dhan waxay ka cabbisay khamriga cadhada sinadeeda’ (Muujintii 14:8). Waa maxay khamrigaasu?—Waa caqiidooyinkeeda beenta ah. Waxay dunida siisay sabti been ah oo beddel u ah Sabtida amarka afraad, waxayna ku celcelisay beentii Shayddaanku markii ugu horraysay ugu sheegay Xaawo Ceeden dhexdeeda—aan-dhimashada dabiiciga ah ee nafta. Khaladaad badan oo la mid ah ayay meel fog iyo meel dhow ku faafisay, iyadoo ‘waxbarid ahaan u dhigaysa amarrada dadka’ (Matayos 15:9).” Selected Messages, buugga 2, 118.
The wine Belshazzar was drinking was the papacy’s idol sabbath, for the feast represented the prophetic “hour” of the Sunday law. The sanctuary vessels he brought into the banquet hall represented not only rebellion against God, but sacred vessels also represent God’s people, for the literal represents the spiritual, and people are vessels.
Khamrigii Belshaasar cabbayay wuxuu ahaa sabtida sanamka ee baabasiimada, waayo xafladdu waxay matalaysay “saacadda” nebiyaysan ee sharciga Axadda. Weelashii meesha quduuska ah ee uu soo geliyey hoolka diyaafadda waxay matalayeen ma aha oo keliya fallaagowga ka dhanka ah Ilaah, laakiin weelasha quduuska ahu sidoo kale waxay matalaan dadka Ilaah, waayo kan muuqda wuxuu matalaa kan ruuxiga ah, dadkuna waa weelaal.
Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work. 2 Timothy 2:19–21.
Habase yeeshee, aasaaska Ilaah wuu taagan yahay isagoo adag, isagoo leh shaabaddan, Rabbigu waa garanayaa kuwa isaga leh. Oo weliba, Mid kasta oo magaca Masiixa ku magacaabaa ha ka tago xumaanta. Laakiin guri weyn kuma jiraan weelal dahab iyo lacag oo keliya, ee waxa kale oo ku jira kuwo alwaax ah iyo kuwo dhoobo ah; qaar sharaf, qaarna ceeb. Haddaba haddii nin iska nadiifiyo kuwaas, wuxuu ahaan doonaa weel sharaf leh, quduus laga dhigay, oo ku habboon isticmaalka sayidka, una diyaarsan shuqul kasta oo wanaagsan. 2 Timoteyos 2:19–21.
In the midst of desecrating God’s people through enforced Sunday worship, the fiery handwriting spells out Belshazzar’s doom.
Intii lagu guda jiray nijaasaynta dadka Ilaah iyada oo lagu khasbayo cibaadada Axadda, qoraalkii dabka ahaa ayaa ku dhawaaqaya halaagga Belshaasaar.
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. Then the king’s countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another. The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the king spake, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and show me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom. Daniel 5:5–7.
Saacaddii qudheeda ayaa waxaa soo baxay faro gacan nin ah, oo wax ku qoray derbiga qasriga boqorka malaastiisa dusheeda, meel ka soo horjeedda laambadda; boqorkuna wuxuu arkay qaybtii gacanta ee wax qoraysay. Markaasaa wejigii boqorku is beddelay, fikirradiisiina way dhibeen, si xadhkihii dhexdiisu u debceen, jilbihiisiina ay isku dhacayeen midba midka kale. Boqorkii cod weyn buu ku qayliyey in la soo geliyo xiddig-falayaashii, reer Kaldayiin, iyo faaliyayaashii. Boqorkiina wuu hadlay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi nimankii xigmadda lahaa ee Baabuloon, Ku alla kii akhriyi doona qoritaankan oo ii muujin doona fasirkiisa, waxaa lagu huwin doonaa guduud, silsilad dahab ahna qoortiisa ayaa loo saari doonaa, oo wuxuu noqon doonaa taliyaha saddexaad ee boqortooyada. Daanyeel 5:5–7.
Historically the passage is understood to be identifying that Belshazzar’s father, had left the political throne to Belshazzar, and for this reason the best his son could offer for an interpretation of the handwriting was a position of being the third ruler. Leading up to the Sunday law in the United States, the political leadership will be in a subservient position to the religious leadership who will be working to introduce a new form of worship. The image of the beast represents the combination of church and state with the church in control of the relationship, and at the Sunday law Belshazzar was the political king, thus symbolizing the state, but he was only the second in command to his father’s religious authority. The best he could offer Daniel was to be third.
Taariikh ahaan, tuducan waxaa loo fahmayaa inuu tilmaamayo in aabbihii Belshazzar uu kursigii siyaasadeed uga tegay Belshazzar, sababtaas awgeedna waxa ugu wanaagsan ee wiilkiisu bixin karay beddelka fasiraadda qoraalka ay ahayd xilka taliyaha saddexaad. Inta ka horraysa sharciga Axadda ee Maraykanka, hoggaanka siyaasadeed wuxuu ku jiri doonaa meel ka hooseysa hoggaanka diimeed oo ka shaqayn doona soo bandhigidda qaab cusub oo cibaado. Sawirka bahalku wuxuu metelaa isku darka kaniisadda iyo dawladda iyadoo kaniisaddu gacanta ku hayso xidhiidhkaas, oo marka la gaadho sharciga Axadda Belshazzar wuxuu ahaa boqorka siyaasadeed, sidaas darteedna wuxuu astaan u yahay dawladda, hase yeeshee wuxuu ahaa oo keliya kan labaad ee amar ahaan ka hooseeya awoodda diimeed ee aabbihii. Waxa ugu wanaagsan ee uu Daanyeel siin karay waxay ahayd inuu noqdo kan saddexaad.
“When the early church became corrupted by departing from the simplicity of the gospel and accepting heathen rites and customs, she lost the Spirit and power of God; and in order to control the consciences of the people, she sought the support of the secular power. The result was the papacy, a church that controlled the power of the state and employed it to further her own ends, especially for the punishment of ‘heresy.’ In order for the United States to form an image of the beast, the religious power must so control the civil government that the authority of the state will also be employed by the church to accomplish her own ends. . . .
“Markii kaniisaddii hore ay ku kharribtay ka tegidda fudaydkii injiilka oo ay aqbashay cibaadooyin iyo caadooyin jaahili ah, waxay lumisay Ruuxa iyo xoogga Ilaah; si ay damiirrada dadka u maamusho, waxayna raadisay taageerada awoodda cilmaaniyeed. Natiijadu waxay noqotay baabnimada, kaniisad xukuntay awoodda dawladda oo u adeegsatay si ay u fuliso ujeeddooyinkeeda gaarka ah, gaar ahaan ciqaabidda ‘bidcada.’ Si Maraykanku u sameeyo sanamkii bahalka, awoodda diimeed waa inay si sidaas ah u xukuntaa dawladda madaniga ah in awoodda dawladdana ay kaniisaddu u adeegsan doonto inay ku gaadho ujeeddooyinkeeda gaarka ah....”
“The enforcement of Sundaykeeping on the part of Protestant churches is an enforcement of the worship of the papacy—of the beast. Those who, understanding the claims of the fourth commandment, choose to observe the false instead of the true Sabbath are thereby paying homage to that power by which alone it is commanded. But in the very act of enforcing a religious duty by secular power, the churches would themselves form an image to the beast; hence the enforcement of Sundaykeeping in the United States would be an enforcement of the worship of the beast and his image.” The Great Controversy, 443, 448, 449.
“Ku qasbidda ilaalinta Axadda ee dhinaca kaniisadaha Protestanka ahi waa ku qasbidda cibaadada baabtiiska Roomaanka—tan bahalka. Kuwii, iyagoo garanaya sheegashooyinka amarka afraad, doorta inay dhawraan sabtida beenta ah halkii ay ka dhawri lahaayeen Sabtida runta ah, sidaas daraaddeed waxay maamuus siinayaan awooddaas oo keliya ee amarkaas ka timaaddo. Laakiin falka qudhiisa ee lagu qasbayo waajib diineed iyadoo la adeegsanayo awood madani ah, kaniisaduhu iyaga qudhoodu waxay samayn lahaayeen sanam u eg bahalka; sidaa darteed ku qasbidda ilaalinta Axadda ee dalka Maraykanka waxay ahaan lahayd ku qasbidda cibaadada bahalka iyo sanamkiisa.” The Great Controversy, 443, 448, 449.
It is in a crisis that character is revealed, and the mysterious message on the wall produced a crisis in Belshazzar’s experience and marked the end of his kingdom, thus symbolizing the end of the kingdom of the earth beast. Belshazzar died that very night, representing the Sunday law, when the United States is overthrown as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy at the Sunday law, but the United States immediately transitions into the premier king of the ten kings. The ten kings are the seventh kingdom of Bible prophecy, and they immediately agree to give their seventh kingdom to the beast.
Waa wakhtiga qalalaasaha ah marka dabeecaddu soo baxdo, oo farriintii dahsooneyd ee derbiga ku qornaydna waxay qalalaase ka dhex abuurtay waaya-aragnimadii Belshaasaar, waxayna calaamadisay dhammaadka boqortooyadiisa, sidaasna waxay astaan ugu noqotay dhammaadka boqortooyada bahalka dhulka. Belshaasaar habeenkaas qudhiisa ayuu dhintay, taasoo metelaysa sharciga Axadda, marka Maraykanka loo afgembiyo isagoo ah boqortooyada lixaad ee waxsii-sheegidda Kitaabka Quduuska ah xilliga sharciga Axadda, hase ahaatee Maraykanku isla markiiba wuxuu isu beddelaa boqorka ugu sarreeya ee tobanka boqor. Tobanka boqor waa boqortooyada toddobaad ee waxsii-sheegidda Kitaabka Quduuska ah, waxayna isla markiiba ku heshiiyaan inay boqortooyadooda toddobaad siiyaan bahalka.
For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. Revelation 17:17.
Waayo, Ilaah wuxuu qalbiyadooda geliyey inay doonistiisa gutaan, oo ay isku raacaan, oo boqortooyadooda siiyaan bahalka, ilaa erayada Ilaah ay ka rumoobayaan. Muujintii 17:17.
The final movements are rapid ones, and the transition from the sixth kingdom to the seventh, and then to the eighth is rapid, for the world is then in a great crisis. The overthrow of the earth beast causes Belshazzar to fear, and as the premier king of the ten kings, he represents the fear that all the kings of the earth will experience at the overthrow of the United States. In Revelation chapter eleven, the “hour” that the handwriting appears upon the wall, is the “hour” of the great earthquake. At that point three symbols of Islam are marked, and it is Islam that causes the kings to fear in the last days.
Dhaqdhaqaaqyadii ugu dambeeyey waa kuwo degdeg ah, oo kala-guurka ka imanaya boqortooyadii lixaad una gudbaya tii toddobaad, dabadeedna tii siddeedaad, waa mid degdeg ah; waayo markaas dunidu waxay ku jirtaa qalalaase weyn. Riditaanka bahalka dhulka ayaa Belshazzar ka dhigaya inuu cabsado, isaga oo ah boqorka hormuudka u ah tobanka boqor, wuxuuna matalaa cabsida ay dhammaan boqorrada dunidu la kulmi doonaan marka Maraykanka la rido. Muujintii cutubka kow iyo tobnaad, “saacadda” ay qoraalku derbiga kaga soo muuqato, waa “saacadda” dhulgariirka weyn. Halkaas waxaa lagu calaamadiyaa saddex astaan oo Islaamka ah, waana Islaamka kan boqorrada ku keena cabsi maalmaha ugu dambeeya.
For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together. They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away. Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail. Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind. As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it forever. Selah. Psalm 48:4–8.
Waayo, bal eeg, boqorradii way isu soo urureen; way wada gudbeen. Way arkeen, markaasay yaabeen; way naxeen, oo degdeg bay ku carareen. Cabsi baa halkaas ku qabatay, iyo xanuun sida naag foolanaysa. Adigu waxaad ku jebisaa maraakiibta Tarshiish dabayl bari ah. Sidii aannu u maqalnay, sidaas oo kalena ayaannu ku aragnay magaalada Rabbiga ciidammada, ee magaalada Ilaaheenna; Ilaahna weligiis buu dhisi doonaa. Selah. Sabuurka 48:4–8.
The lords, or kings were assembled at Belshazzar’s feast, drinking the wine of Babylon and handling and looking upon the sacred vessels of God’s sanctuary, when fear took hold of them, as represented by Belshazzar’s fear when the handwriting appeared upon the wall. Belshazzar’s fear began an escalating fear that is represented by a woman in travail, and Revelation eleven’s “hour” leads into chapter twelve, where the ensign is represented as a woman about to give birth. The first labor pain is the handwriting on the wall of the banquet hall. The fear is caused by the “east wind” of Islam, that “breakest the ships of Tarshish.”
Sayidyadii, ama boqorradii, waxay ku urursanaayeen cashadii Belshaasar, iyagoo cabbaya khamriga Baabuloon oo taabanaya isla markaana eegaya weelashii quduuska ahaa ee meesha quduuska ah ee Ilaah, markaasaa cabsi qabatay, sida ay u matalayso cabsidii Belshaasar markii qoraalku ka soo muuqday derbiga. Cabsidii Belshaasar waxay bilowday cabsi sii kordhaysa oo lagu matalay haweeney foolanaysa; “saacadda” ku jirta Muujintii kow iyo tobnaadna waxay u horseeddaa cutubka laba iyo tobnaad, halkaas oo calanku lagu matalo naag umul ku dhow. Foolxumada ugu horraysa ee fooshu waa qoraalka derbiga hoolka cashada. Cabsida waxaa sababa “dabaysha bari” ee Islaamka, taas oo “jebisa maraakiibta Tarshiish.”
In Belshazzar’s banquet hall, “one thousand lords” are consuming the wine of Babylon, which represents Sunday enforcement. At that time, Nebuchadnezzar’s orchestra begins to play the music, as Belshazzar has the ornaments of the sanctuary brought in. The whore of Tyre begins to sing, and apostate Israel begins to dance around Nebuchadnezzar’s golden idol. But the party is crashed by the “east wind,” which is the “third woe” that comes quickly, and is the “seventh trumpet.” When Islam crashes the party, the “nations are angered.” They are angered, for the ships of Tarshish, the symbol of the economic structure of planet earth is then sank in the midst of the sea.
Hoolkii cashada Belshaasar gudaheeda, “kunka sayid” ayaa cabbaya khamriga Baabuloon, kaas oo u taagan dhaqan-gelinta Axadda. Waqtigaas, kooxda muusigga Nebukadnesar waxay bilowdaa inay muusigga ciyaarto, iyadoo Belshaasar la keenayo waxyaalihii qurxinta ee meesha quduuska ah. Dhilladii Turosna waxay billowdaa inay heesto, Israa’iiltii riddowdayna waxay billowdaa inay ku cayaarayso agagaarka sanamkii dahabka ahaa ee Nebukadnesar. Laakiin xafladda waxaa kala dhex gasha “dabaysha bari,” taas oo ah “hooggii saddexaad” ee dhaqso u imanaya, oo ahna “buunkii toddobaad.” Markii Islaamku kala dhex galo xafladda, “quruumuhu way cadhoodaan.” Way cadhoodaan, maxaa yeelay markaas waxaa badhtanka badda lagu quusiyaa doonidii Tarshiish, taas oo calaamad u ah qaab-dhismeedka dhaqaale ee meeraha dhulka.
Tarshish was thy merchant by reason of the multitude of all kind of riches; with silver, iron, tin, and lead, they traded in thy fairs. Javan, Tubal, and Meshech, they were thy merchants: they traded the persons of men and vessels of brass in thy market. They of the house of Togarmah traded in thy fairs with horses and horsemen and mules. The men of Dedan were thy merchants; many isles were the merchandise of thine hand: they brought thee for a present horns of ivory and ebony. Syria was thy merchant by reason of the multitude of the wares of thy making: they occupied in thy fairs with emeralds, purple, and broidered work, and fine linen, and coral, and agate. Judah, and the land of Israel, they were thy merchants: they traded in thy market wheat of Minnith, and Pannag, and honey, and oil, and balm. Damascus was thy merchant in the multitude of the wares of thy making, for the multitude of all riches; in the wine of Helbon, and white wool. Dan also and Javan going to and fro occupied in thy fairs: bright iron, cassia, and calamus, were in thy market. Dedan was thy merchant in precious clothes for chariots. Arabia, and all the princes of Kedar, they occupied with thee in lambs, and rams, and goats: in these were they thy merchants. The merchants of Sheba and Raamah, they were thy merchants: they occupied in thy fairs with chief of all spices, and with all precious stones, and gold. Haran, and Canneh, and Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad, were thy merchants. These were thy merchants in all sorts of things, in blue clothes, and broidered work, and in chests of rich apparel, bound with cords, and made of cedar, among thy merchandise. The ships of Tarshish did sing of thee in thy market: and thou wast replenished, and made very glorious in the midst of the seas. Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters: the east wind hath broken thee in the midst of the seas. Thy riches, and thy fairs, thy merchandise, thy mariners, and thy pilots, thy calkers, and the occupiers of thy merchandise, and all thy men of war, that are in thee, and in all thy company which is in the midst of thee, shall fall into the midst of the seas in the day of thy ruin. Ezekiel 27:12–26.
Tarshiish waxay ahayd baayacmushtarkaaga, badnaanta nooc kasta oo maal ah aawadeed; lacag, bir, qasacad, iyo rasaas bay suuqyadaada kaga ganacsan jireen. Yaawaan, Tuubaal, iyo Meshek, iyagu waxay ahaayeen baayacmushtarradaada; waxay suuqaaga ku kala iibsan jireen dad iyo weelal naxaas ah. Kuwii guriga Togarmaahna waxay suuqyadaada kaga ganacsan jireen fardo, fardooley, iyo baqallo. Ragga Dedaan waxay ahaayeen baayacmushtarradaada; jasiirado badanuna waxay ahaayeen badeecaddii gacantaada; hadiyad ahaan waxay kuugu keeni jireen geeso foolmaroodi ah iyo qori ebeni ah. Suuriya waxay ahayd baayacmushtarkaaga, badnaanta alaabtaadii farsamadaada aawadeed; suuqyadaada waxay kaga ganacsan jireen sumurud, guduud, daabac tolmoon, iyo maro wanaagsan oo linen ah, iyo marjaan, iyo cawqad. Yahuudah iyo dalka Israa'iil, iyaguna waxay ahaayeen baayacmushtarradaada; suuqaaga waxay ku kala iibsan jireen sarreenka Minniith, iyo Pannag, iyo malab, iyo saliid, iyo beeyo. Dimishaq waxay ahayd baayacmushtarkaaga, badnaanta alaabtaadii farsamadaada iyo badnaanta nooc kasta oo maal ah aawadeed; khamriga Xelbón iyo dhogorta cad bay ku ganacsan jirtay. Daanna iyo Yaawaan wareegayaaba waxay suuqyadaada kaga ganacsan jireen; bir dhalaalaysa, qaasiya, iyo qalamuus, ayaa suuqaaga yiil. Dedaan waxay ahayd baayacmushtarkaaga oo dhar qaali ah gaadhifardoodka loogu talagalay ku ganacsan jirtay. Carabiya iyo amiirrada Qedaar oo dhammi waxay kula macaamiloodeen baraarro, iyo wananno, iyo orgiyo; waxyaalahaas ayay baayacmushtarradaada ku ahaayeen. Baayacmushtarradii Shebaa iyo Racmaahna waxay ahaayeen baayacmushtarradaada; suuqyadaada waxay kaga ganacsan jireen kuwa ugu wanaagsan oo uunsiyo oo dhan ah, iyo dhagaxyo qaali ah oo dhan, iyo dahab. Xaaraan, Kanneeh, iyo Ceeden, baayacmushtarradii Shebaa, Ashuur, iyo Kilmad, waxay ahaayeen baayacmushtarradaada. Kuwanu waxay ahaayeen baayacmushtarradaadii oo waxyaalo cayn kasta ah ku ganacsan jiray, iyagoo wata dhar buluug ah, iyo daabac tolmoon, iyo sanduuqyo dhar qaali ah ah oo xargo lagu xidhay, kana samaysan geed kedar ah, kuwaas oo ku jiray badeecaddaada. Maraakiibtii Tarshiishna suuqaaga ayay kaaga heesi jireen; oo adna waad buuxsantay, oo waxaad ku noqotay mid aad u ammaanan badaha dhexdooda. Doonyowgaaga ayaa kugu geeyey biyaha waaweyn; dabaysha bari ayaa kugu jebisay badaha dhexdooda. Maalkaaga, iyo suuqyadaada, badeecaddaada, badmaaxiintaada, iyo taliyayaashaada, kuwaaga dildillaaca hagaajiya, iyo kuwa ka ganacsada badeecaddaada, iyo raggaaga dagaalka oo dhan ee kugu jira, iyo shirkaddaada oo dhan oo dhexdaada ku jirta, waxay ku dhici doonaan badaha dhexdooda maalinta halaaggaaga. Ezekiel 27:12–26.
The “ships of Tarshish” are the symbol of the economic structure of planet earth, and they are sunk in the midst of the sea by the “east wind.” Ezekiel informs us this takes place in the “day of thy ruin,” and the subject of Ezekiel chapter twenty-seven, is the lamentation for Tyrus.
“Maraakiibta Tarshiish” waa astaan u ah qaab-dhismeedka dhaqaale ee meeraha dhulka, waxaana lagu hafiyey badhtamaha badda “dabaysha bari.” Yexesqeel wuxuu inoo sheegayaa in tani dhacdo “maalinta halaaggaaga,” mawduuca cutubka toddoba iyo labaatanaad ee Yexesqeelna waa baroorashadii Turos.
The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying, Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus; And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord God; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of perfect beauty. Ezekiel 27:1–3.
Markaasaa haddana eraygii Rabbigu waa ii yimid, isagoo leh, Hadda, wiilka Aadamow, Turos u qaad baroor; oo waxaad Turos ku tidhaahdaa, Kuwa badaha iriddooda deggan, oo ganacsade u ah dadyowga jasiirado badan, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Turosay, waxaad tidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay kaamil qurux ahaan. Yexesqeel 27:1–3.
The day of the ruin of Tyrus is the subject of the lamentation. The day of the ruin of Tyrus is the Sunday law, for Tyrus is a symbol of the papacy, whose judgment begins in the “hour” that the second voice of Revelation eighteen begins to call people out of Babylon.
Maalinta burburka Turos ayaa ah mawduuca baroordiiqda. Maalinta burburka Turos waa sharciga Axadda, waayo Turos waa astaan u ah baabtiisnimada, oo xukunkeedu ka bilaabmo “saacadda” codka labaad ee Muujintii siddeed iyo tobnaad bilaabo inuu dadka uga yeedho Baabuloon.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come. And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more. Revelation 18:4–11.
Oo cod kale ayaan samada ka maqlay, oo leh, Ka soo baxa iyada, dadkaygiiyow, inaydnaan dembiyadeeda ka qayb qaadan, oo aydaan belaayooyinkeeda ka qaadan. Waayo, dembiyadeedu waxay gaadheen ilaa samada, oo Ilaahna xumaatooyinkeedii wuu soo xusuustay. U abaalmariya iyada sidii ay idiin abaalmarisay, oo laba jibaara labanlaab sida shuqulladeeda ah; koobkii ay buuxisayna laba jibaara ugu buuxiya. Intay isweyneysay oo ay raaxo ugu noolayd, intaas le'eg silic iyo murug siiyaa; waayo, qalbigeeda waxay ku tidhaahdaa, Boqorad baan carshiga ku fadhiyaa, carmalna ma ihi, murugna ma arki doono. Sidaas daraaddeed belaayooyinkeedu waxay ku iman doonaan maalin keliya, dhimasho, baroor, iyo abaar; oo dab baa lagu gubi doonaa gebi ahaanba; waayo, waxaa xoog badan Rabbiga Ilaaha ah kan xukuma iyada. Oo boqorrada dhulka oo iyada sino la sameeyey oo raaxo kula noolaa way u barooran doonaan, wayna u ooyi doonaan, markay arkaan qiiqa gubashadeeda, iyagoo ka fog taagan cabsi ay ka qabaan silicdeeda, oo leh, Hoogay, hoogay magaaladaas weyn oo Baabuloon ah, magaaladaas xoogga badan! waayo, saacad qudha ayaa xukunkaagu ku yimid. Oo ganacsatada dhulkuna way u ooyi doonaan oo u barooran doonaan; waayo, ninna badeecadoodii mar dambe ma iibsanayo. Muujintii 18:4–11.
The word that is used five times as “hour,” in the book of Daniel, always represents some type of judgment. The type of judgment is determined by the context of the passage where it is employed. In Daniel chapter four, the word “hour” is used first to announce the coming of judgment, whether it was the investigative judgment that began on October 22, 1844, or the executive judgment that begins at the Sunday law. In both cases, the investigative or executive judgments are progressive. The executive judgment of the papacy begins at the Sunday law in the United States. That marks the “hour” that the papacy’s executive judgment begins, and that “hour” is the “hour” of the great earthquake of Revelation eleven, when the two witnesses, represented by Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego are cast into the furnace as the ensign that is lifted up as Ezekiel’s mighty army. That “hour” is when the handwriting appears upon Belshazzar’s wall.
Ereyga shan jeer ee kitaabka Daanyeel loogu adeegsaday “saacad,” mar walba waxay u taagan tahay nooc garsoor ah. Nooca garsoorka waxaa go’aamiya macnaha guud ee tuduca lagu adeegsaday. Daanyeel cutubka afraad, ereyga “saacad” waxaa marka hore loo adeegsaday in lagu dhawaaqo garsoor soo socda, ha ahaado garsoorkii baadhitaanka ee bilaabmay Oktoobar 22, 1844, ama garsoorka fulinta ee ka bilaabma sharciga Axadda. Labada xaaladoodba, garsoorka baadhitaanka iyo kan fulintuba waa kuwo si tartiib-tartiib ah u socda. Garsoorka fulinta ee baabtiisnimada roomaanka wuxuu ka bilaabmaa sharciga Axadda ee Maraykanka. Taasu waxay calaamadisaa “saacadda” uu ku bilaabmo garsoorka fulinta ee baabtiisnimada roomaanka, waxaana “saacaddaas” ay tahay “saacadda” dhulgariirka weyn ee Muujintii kow iyo tobnaad, marka labada markhaati, oo ay matalaan Shadraq, Meeshaaq iyo Cabednego, lagu tuuro foornada iyagoo ah calamadda kor loo qaado sida ciidanka xoogga badan ee Yexesqeel. “Saacaddaas” waa marka qoraalku ka soo muuqdo derbiga Belshaasar.
The “ships of Tarshish”, which represent the structure of the economic supply-lines of planet earth are sunk in the midst of the seas at that time, and it causes the merchants and kings of the earth to fear as represented by Belshazzar.
“Maraakiibta Tarshiish,” oo matala qaab-dhismeedka khadadka sahayda dhaqaale ee meeraha dhulka, ayaa wakhtigaas ku dega badaha dhexdooda, taasina waxay ku keentaa ganacsatada iyo boqorrada dhulka cabsi, sida uu matalo Belshazzar.
In Revelation eleven, the “hour” is when the “third Woe” of Islam comes quickly, and the Seventh Trumpet sounds, and the nations are made angry. All three of those symbols point to Islam as the providential tool the Lord uses to accomplish the slaying of Belshazzar at that very “hour.” Belshazzar was slain by enemies that secretly came into his kingdom through the gates that had been carelessly left open, just as the border wall between Mexico and the United States has been carelessly left open, as the “hour” of the “great earthquake” approaches.
Muujintii kow iyo tobnaad, “saacadda” waa marka “Aafo”-gii saddexaad ee Islaamku si degdeg ah u yimaado, Buunka toddobaadna la afuufo, oo quruumahuna cadhoobaan. Saddexdaas calaamadoodba waxay tilmaamayaan Islaamka inuu yahay qalabka qaddariga ah ee Rabbigu u adeegsado inuu ku fuliyo diliddii Belshaasaar isla “saacaddaas” qudheeda. Belshaasaar waxaa dilay cadow si qarsoodi ah ku soo galay boqortooyadiisa iyagoo ka soo maray irdihii si dayacaad ah looga tagay iyagoo furan, sida derbiga xuduudda u dhexeeya Meksiko iyo Maraykanka si dayacaad ah looga tagay isagoo furan, iyadoo “saacaddii” “dhulgariirka weyn” ay soo dhowaanayso.
The healing of the deadly wound of the papacy is set forth in the last six verses of Daniel chapter eleven. In those verses three obstacles are identified that are overcome as the papacy’s deadly wound is healed. The King of the North always conquers three obstacles on his way to supreme power, and always in the order of: first his enemy, second his ally, and then finally his victim. The first to be conquered was the King of the South, representing the Soviet Union, the last enemy of Rome, that was swept away in 1989. The second obstacle is the glorious land, which is Rome’s ally who conquered the USSR for Rome, the United States, which is conquered in the “hour” we are now considering. Thereafter the third obstacle, represented as Egypt, represents when the papacy takes control of its victim, the United Nations.
Bogsiinta nabarka dilaaga ah ee wadaadnimada baadariga waxa lagu muujiyey lixda aayadood ee ugu dambaysa ee Daanyeel cutubka kow iyo tobnaad. Aayadahaas waxaa lagu aqoonsaday saddex caqabadood oo laga adkaado inta nabarka dilaaga ah ee wadaadnimada baadarigu bogsanayo. Boqorka Waqooyi mar walba wuxuu ka adkaadaa saddex caqabadood isaga oo ku sii socda awoodda ugu sarraysa, mar walbana sida ay u kala horreeyaan waa: marka hore cadowgiisa, marka labaad xulafadiisa, dabadeedna ugu dambayntii dhibbanihiisa. Kii ugu horreeyey ee laga adkaaday wuxuu ahaa Boqorka Koonfureed, oo matalayey Midowgii Soofiyeeti, cadowgii ugu dambeeyey ee Rooma, kaas oo la xaaqay sannadkii 1989. Caqabadda labaad waa dalka ammaanta leh, kaas oo ah xulafada Rooma oo Rooma awgeed uga adkaaday USSR, waana Maraykanka, kaas oo laga adkaado “saacadda” aynu hadda ka fiirsanayno. Intaas dabadeed caqabadda saddexaad, oo lagu matalay Masar, waxay tilmaamaysaa marka wadaadnimada baadarigu la wareego maamulidda dhibbanihiisa, Qaramada Midoobay.
In 1989, when the unsealing of those verses occurred, and there was thereafter an increase of knowledge of those verses, it was recognized that pagan Rome, papal Rome and then modern Rome (represented as the King of the North in the last six verses of Daniel chapter eleven), each needed to overcome three geographical obstacles before they were established as a kingdom. For pagan Rome, those three obstacles were represented as three directions.
Sannadkii 1989, markii furfuridda aayadahaas ay dhacday, dabadeedna uu kordhay aqoonta aayadahaas, waxaa la gartay in Roomaankii jaahiliga ahaa, Roomaankii baadariga ahaa, dabadeedna Roomaanka casriga ah (oo lagu matalay Boqorka Waqooyi lixda aayadood ee ugu dambeeya cutubka kow iyo tobnaad ee Daanyeel), mid kastaa uu u baahnaa inuu ka adkaado saddex caqabadood oo juqraafiyeed ka hor intaan loo dhisin boqortooyo ahaan. Roomaankii jaahiliga ahaa, saddexdaas caqabadood waxaa lagu matalay saddex jiho.
And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. Daniel 8:9.
Oo midkood ka mid ahna waxaa ka soo baxay gees yar, oo aad iyo aad u weynaaday, xagga koonfureed, iyo xagga bari, iyo xagga dalka quruxda badan. Daanyeel 8:9.
For papal Rome they were three horns that needed to be plucked up.
Waayo, Rooma baadariga waxay ahaayeen saddex geesood oo u baahnaa in la rujiyo.
I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things. Daniel 7:8.
Waxaan fiiriyey geesihii, oo bal eeg, gees kale oo yar baa dhexdooda ka soo baxay, kaas hortiisa saddex ka mid ah geesihii hore xididdadii baa laga siibay; oo bal eeg, geeskan waxaa ku jiray indho u eg indhaha dadka, iyo af ku hadlaya waxyaalo waaweyn. Daanyeel 7:8.
For modern Rome (the king of the north), represented in the last six verses of Daniel eleven, the three obstacles were the king of the south, the glorious land, and Egypt. As with pagan Rome and papal Rome the three obstacles represented geographic obstacles. Modern Rome, represented as the king of the north in the last six verses of Daniel eleven, needed to overcome three “walls”, and with the first wall there was a philosophical “wall” that was removed at the same time a literal wall was removed. In 1989, when the king of the north brought down the Soviet Union (the king of the south), the philosophical “wall” of the “iron curtain” was removed, as the Berlin wall was dismantled.
Rooma casriga ah (boqorka woqooyi), oo lagu metelay lixda aayadood ee ugu dambeeya ee Daanyeel kow iyo tobnaad, saddexda caqabad waxay ahaayeen boqorka koonfureed, dhulka sharafta leh, iyo Masar. Sida Rooma jaahiliga ah iyo Rooma baadariga ahba, saddexda caqabad waxay matalayeen caqabado juqraafiyeed. Rooma casriga ah, oo lagu metelay boqorka woqooyi lixda aayadood ee ugu dambeeya ee Daanyeel kow iyo tobnaad, waxay u baahnayd inay ka gudubto saddex “darbi”, darbigii ugu horreeyayna waxaa jiray “darbi” falsafadeed oo la qaaday isla wakhtigii darbi dhab ah la qaaday. Sannadkii 1989, markii boqorka woqooyi uu dumiyey Midowgii Soofiyeeti (boqorka koonfureed), “darbigii” falsafadeed ee “daaha birta ah” waa la qaaday, iyadoo darbiga Berlin la burburiyey.
In the “hour” of Belshazzar’s judgment, when the handwriting is on the wall, and his enemies are secretly entering in through the unguarded gates, the philosophical “wall” of the separation of church and state is removed, while Islam of the third Woe has secretly entered through the unattended “wall” on the southern border of the glorious land.
“Saacaddii” xukunka Belshaasaar, marka far-qoristu derbiga ku taal, oo cadowgiisuna si qarsoodi ah uga soo gelayaan irdaha aan la ilaalin, “derbigii” falsafadeed ee kala-soocidda kaniisadda iyo dawladda waa la qaadaa, halka Islaamka Hoogga saddexaad uu si qarsoodi ah uga soo galay “derbigii” aan la ilaalin ee ku yaal xuduudda koonfureed ee dalka ammaanta badan.
When “Egypt”, representing the United Nations, is conquered, and the philosophical “wall of national sovereignty” is removed, as every nation is forced to accept the one-world government that is directed by the whore of Tyre. At that time, a financial crash will occur that produces the martial law and despotism of the last days. Something may very well happen on a street that is called “Wall Street”.
Marka “Masar”, oo matalaysa Qaramada Midoobay, la qabsado, oo la baabi’iyo “derbiga” falsafadeed ee madaxbannaanida qaran, iyadoo qaran kasta lagu khasbayo inuu aqbalo dowlad hal-aduun ah oo ay hagayso dhillada Turos. Waqtigaas, waxaa dhici doona burbur dhaqaale oo keena xukun ciidan iyo kali-talisnimada maalmaha ugu dambeeya. Wax baa si dhab ah uga dhici kara waddo la yidhaahdo “Wall Street”.
“The very means that is now so sparingly invested in the cause of God, and that is selfishly retained, will, in a little while, be cast with all idols to the moles and to the bats. Money will soon depreciate in value very suddenly when the reality of eternal scenes opens to the senses of man.” Welfare Ministry, 266.
“Isla waxyaalaha hadda si aad u yar loogu gelinayo qadiyadda Ilaah, oo si anaaninimo leh loo haysto, wax yar dabadeed waxaa lala tuuri doonaa sanamyada oo dhan jiirka godadka ku jira iyo fiidmeerta. Lacagtu dhowaan qiimaheeda si kedis ah ayey hoos ugu dhici doontaa marka xaqiiqada muuqaallada weligeed ah ay u furanto dareenka dadka.” Welfare Ministry, 266.
We continue our study of Belshazzar in the next article.
Waxaan sii wadeynaa daraasaddeenna ku saabsan Belshazzar maqaalka xiga.
“Today, as in the days of Elijah, the line of demarcation between God’s commandment-keeping people and the worshipers of false gods is clearly drawn. ‘How long halt ye between two opinions?’ Elijah cried; ‘if the Lord be God, follow Him: but if Baal, then follow him.’ 1 Kings 18:21. And the message for today is: ‘Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen…. Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.’ Revelation 18:2, 4, 5.
“Maanta, sida waagii Eliiyaah oo kale, xariiqda kala soocidda u dhexaysa dadka Ilaah ee xajista amarradiisa iyo kuwa caabuda ilaahyada beenta ah si cad ayaa loo muujiyey. ‘Ilaa goormaad laba ra’yi u kala liicaysaan?’ ayuu Eliiyaah ku dhawaaqay; ‘haddii Rabbigu yahay Ilaah, isaga raaca; laakiinse haddii Bacal yahay, markaas isaga raaca.’ 1 Boqorradii 18:21. Oo farriinta maanta loogu talagalayna waa: ‘Baabuloon tii weynayd way dhacday, way dhacday…. Ka soo baxa iyada, dadkaygiiyow, si aydaan uga qaybgelin dembiyadeeda, oo aydaan u qaadan aafooyinkeeda. Waayo dembiyadeedu waxay gaadheen ilaa samada, oo Ilaahna xumaatooyinkeedii wuu soo xusuustay.’ Muujintii 18:2, 4, 5.”
“The time is not far distant when the test will come to every soul. The observance of the false sabbath will be urged upon us. The contest will be between the commandments of God and the commandments of men. Those who have yielded step by step to worldly demands and conformed to worldly customs will then yield to the powers that be, rather than subject themselves to derision, insult, threatened imprisonment, and death. At that time the gold will be separated from the dross. True godliness will be clearly distinguished from the appearance and tinsel of it. Many a star that we have admired for its brilliance will then go out in darkness. Those who have assumed the ornaments of the sanctuary, but are not clothed with Christ’s righteousness, will then appear in the shame of their own nakedness.” Prophets and Kings, 187, 188.
“Waqtigu ma foga marka imtixaanku ku iman doono naf kasta. Ilaalinta sabtida beenta ah ayaa nalagu adkayn doonaa. Halganku wuxuu u dhexayn doonaa amarrada Ilaah iyo amarrada dadka. Kuwii tallaabo tallaabo ugu hoggaansamay dalabaadka dunida oo la qabsaday caadooyinka dunida, markaas waxay isu dhiibi doonaan kuwa talada haya, halkii ay isu gelin lahaayeen majaajillo, cay, xadhig lagu handado, iyo dhimasho. Waqtigaas dahabka ayaa laga sooci doonaa wasakhda. Cibaado run ah ayaa si cad looga sooci doonaa muuqaalkeeda iyo bilicdeeda been-abuurka ah. Xiddigo badan oo aynu dhalaalkooda ku majeerannay ayaa markaas gudcur ku bakhtiyi doona. Kuwii qaatay qurxinta meesha quduuska ah, laakiin aan ku huwanayn xaqnimada Masiixa, markaas waxay ku muuqan doonaan ceebta qaawanaantooda.” Prophets and Kings, 187, 188.
