12
The End of the Days
1“Now at that time, Michael, the great prince who stands guard over the sons of your people, will stand. And there will be a time of distress such as never happened since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the book, will be rescued. 2And many of those who sleep in the dust of the ground will awake, these to everlasting life, but the others to reproach and everlasting #12:2 Lit abhorrencecontempt. 3#12:3 Or The instructors willAnd those who have insight will shine brightly like the brightness of the #12:3 Or firmamentexpanse of heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. 4But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the time of the end; many will go to and fro, and knowledge will increase.”
5Then I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others were standing, one on this bank of the river and the other on that bank of the river. 6And one said to the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, “How long will it be until the end of these wonders?” 7And I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, #12:7 Lit andas he raised his right hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever that it would be for a #12:7 Year(s)time, #12:7 Year(s)times, and half a #12:7 Year(s)time; and as soon as #12:7 Lit to finishthey complete shattering the #12:7 Lit handpower of the holy people, all these events will be completed. 8As for me, I heard but could not understand; so I said, “My lord, what will be the #12:8 Or final endoutcome of these events?” 9Then he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words are concealed and sealed up until the time of the end. 10Many will be purged, #12:10 Lit made whitepurified, and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but #12:10 Or the instructors willthose who have insight will understand. 11But from the time that the regular sacrifice is abolished and the #12:11 Or horrible abominationabomination of desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. 12How blessed is he who keeps waiting and reaches the 1,335 days! 13But as for you, go your way to the #12:13 End of your lifeend; then you will enter into rest and stand again for your allotted portion at the end of the days.”
