NEW TESTAMENT

Greeting

¹ The elder unto the wellbeloved (well beloved) Gaius, whom I love in the truth.

² Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest (you may) prosper and be in health, even as thy (your) soul prospereth (prospers).

³ For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren (fellow believers) came and testified of the truth that is in thee (you), even as thou walkest (you walk) in the truth.

⁴ I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.

Gaius’ Generosity Commended

⁵ Beloved, thou doest (you do) faithfully whatsoever thou doest (you do) to the brethren (fellow believers), and to strangers;

⁶ Which have borne witness of thy charity (Who testify your love) before the church: whom if thou (you) bring forward on their journey after a godly sort, thou shalt (you shall) do well:

⁷ Because that for his name’s sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles (non-Jewish people).

⁸ We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers (fellow helpers) to the truth.

⁹ I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth (loves) to have the preeminence (superiority) among them, receiveth us not (does not receive us).

¹⁰ Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth (does), prating (gossiping) against us with malicious (wicked) words: and not content therewith, neither doth (does) he himself receive the brethren (fellow believers), and forbiddeth (forbids) them that would, and casteth (casts / throws) them out of the church.

¹¹ Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth (does) good is of God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah): but he that doeth (does) evil hath (has) not seen God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

¹² Demetrius hath (has) good report of all men, and of the truth itself: yea (yes), and we also bear record; and ye (you) know that our record is true.

¹³ I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee (you):

¹⁴ But I trust I shall shortly see thee (you), and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to thee (you). Our friends salute thee (greet you). Greet the friends by name.

Daniel’s Second Vision

8 In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.

² And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was at Shushan in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai.

The Ram with Two Horns

³ Then I lifted up mine (my) eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.

⁴ I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that no beasts (animals) might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great.

The He Goat

⁵ And as I was considering, behold, an (a) he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.

⁶ And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.

⁷ And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.

⁸ Therefore the he goat waxed (grew) very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.

⁹ And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed (grew) exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.

¹⁰ And it waxed (grew) great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast (thrown) down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.

¹¹ Yea (Yes), he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of the sanctuary was cast down.

¹² And an (a) host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised (practiced), and prospered.

The Days of the Desolation of the Temple

¹³ Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake (who spoke), How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?

¹⁴ And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

Gabriel’s Appearance to Daniel

¹⁵ And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.

¹⁶ And I heard a man’s voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.

¹⁷ So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.

¹⁸ Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.

¹⁹ And he said, Behold, I will make thee (you) know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.

²⁰ The ram which thou sawest (you saw)  having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.

(NOTE: Persia (proper noun) = now known as Iran)

²¹ And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.

²² Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.

The King of Fierce Countenance

²³ And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors (wrongdoers / sinners) are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.

²⁴ And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.

²⁵ And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

²⁶ And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou (you) up the vision; for it shall be for many days.

²⁷ And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king’s business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.

The Seventy Years of Desolation

9 In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;

² In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word (Word) of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.

³ And I set my face unto the Lord God (Adonai Elohim / Aluahym), to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:

⁴ And I prayed unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) my God (Elohim / Aluahym), and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;

⁵ We have sinned, and have committed iniquity (sin), and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy (your) precepts and from thy (your) judgments:

⁶ Neither have we hearkened unto thy (paid attention to your) servants the prophets, which spake (spoke) in thy (your) name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.

God’s (Yahuah’s) Righteous Judgment

⁷ O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee (belongs to You), but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast (You have) driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee (you).

⁸ O Lord, to us belongeth (belongs) confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee (you).

⁹ To the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) our God (Elohim / Aluahym) belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;

¹⁰ Neither have we obeyed the voice of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) our God (Elohim / Aluahym) , to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.

Israel’s Transgression of God’s Law

¹¹ Yea (Yes), all Israel have transgressed thy (Your) law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy (Your) voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), because we have sinned against him.

¹² And he hath (has) confirmed his words, which he spake (spoke) against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath (has) not been done as hath (has) been done upon Jerusalem.

¹³ As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) our God (Elohim / Aluahym), that we might turn from our iniquities (sins), and understand thy (Your) truth.

¹⁴ Therefore hath (has) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) our God (Elohim / Aluahym) is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.

¹⁵ And now, O Lord our God (Elohim / Aluahym), that hast (have) brought thy (Your) people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast (have) gotten thee (you) renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.

¹⁶ O Lord, according to all thy (Your) righteousness, I beseech thee (urge you), let thine (your) anger and thy (Your) fury be turned away from thy (Your) city Jerusalem, thy (Your) holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities (sins) of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy (Your) people are become a reproach (shame) to all that are about us.

¹⁷ Now therefore, O our God (Elohim / Aluahym) , hear the prayer of thy (Your) servant, and his supplications, and cause thy (Your) face to shine upon thy (Your) sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord’s (Adonai’s) sake.

¹⁸ O my God (Elohim / Aluahym), incline thine (your) ear, and hear; open thine (your) eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy (Your) name: for we do not present our supplications before thee (you) for our righteousnesses, but for thy (Your) great mercies.

¹⁹ O Lord (Adonai), hear; O Lord (Adonai), forgive; O Lord (Adonai), hearken (pay attention) and do; defer not, for thine (your) own sake, O my God (Elohim / Aluahym): for thy (Your) city and thy (Your) people are called by thy (Your) name.

Gabriel’s Interpretation

²⁰ And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) my God (Elohim / Aluahym) for the holy mountain of my God (Elohim / Aluahym);

²¹ Yea (Yes), whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.

²² And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee (you) skill and understanding.

²³ At the beginning of thy (your) supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee (show you); for thou art (you are) greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision.

Seventy Weeks are Determined

²⁴ Seventy weeks are determined upon thy (your) people and upon thy (your) holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity (sin), and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

²⁵ Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks [of years], and threescore and two (62) weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times (in times of trouble).

²⁶ And after threescore and two (62) weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

²⁷ And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation (grain offering [for the remaining three and one-half years]) to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations (wickedness) he shall make it desolate (destroyed), even until the consummation (complete destruction), and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate (is poured out on the one who causes the horror).

Daniel’s Three Weeks of Mourning

10 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.

² In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.

³ I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.

Another Vision

⁴ And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel;

⁵ Then I lifted up mine (my) eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:

⁶ His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.

⁷ And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.

⁸ Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.

⁹ Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.

The Interpretation of the Vision

¹⁰ And, behold, an (a) hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.

¹¹ And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee (you), and stand upright: for unto thee (you) am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.

¹² Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst (you did) set thine (your) heart to understand, and to chasten thyself (rebuke yourself) before thy (your) God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), thy (your) words were heard, and I am come for thy (your) words.

¹³ But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo (look), Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.

¹⁴ Now I am come to make thee (you) understand what shall befall thy (your) people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.

Daniel’s Strength Fails

¹⁵ And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.

¹⁶ And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake (spoke), and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.

¹⁷ For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.

A Messenger Strengthens Daniel

¹⁸ Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,

¹⁹ And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee (you), be strong, yea (yes), be strong. And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord (master) speak; for thou hast (you have) strengthened me.

²⁰ Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee (Do you understand [fully] why I came to you)? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo (look), the prince of Grecia shall come.

²¹ But I will shew thee (show you) that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me (stands firmly with me) in these things, but Michael your prince.

DIFFERENT SPELLING VERSIONS OF THE MESSIAH:-

Here are the explanations:-

1. SPELLING VERSION #1:-

Yeshua יֵשׁוּעַ (Hebrew 3442) means He will save. It is a shortened form of Yehoshooah / Yahushua יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (Hebrew 3091) = God saves. EXAMPLE #1: Mike is a shortened form of Michael. EXAMPLE #2: Josh is a shortened form of Joshua.

QUESTION: Does anyone like their name to be shortened? ANSWER: No.

QUESTION: Were our names shortened in any legal documents? ANSWER: No.

2. SPELLING VERSION #2:-

Yehoshooah / Yehushua יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (Hebrew 3091) as spelled in this manner (with the niqqud as a pronunciation guide) means God saves. 

QUESTION: If the Messiah came in the name of His Father (Yah) as in John 5:43, will it make sense that the Messiah’s name be “Yehoshooah” / “Yehushua” / “Yehusha”? ANSWER: No.

3. SPELLING VERSION #3:-

Yahushua יהושוע (Hebrew 3091) as spelled in this manner (without the niqqud) depicts that the Messiah came in the name of His Father, Yah יה (Hebrew 3050) as in John 5:43 means God saves. 

4. SPELLING VERSION #4:-

Yahusha (יהושע) as spelled in this manner depicts that the Messiah came in the name of His Father and according to the original ancient Hebrew text spelling and pronunciation.

Yah יה (Hebrew 3050) is made of י (y = Yad / Yod) & הּ (ah = Hay) which means YAH (יְה = the Creator), + ו (u = Uau) + ש (sh = Shan / Shin) + ע (a = Ayin).
