"Now at that time aMichael
, the great
prince
who stands
guard over
the sons
of your people
, will arise
. And there will be a btime
of distress
csuch
as never
occurred
since
there was a nation
until
that time
; and at that time
your people
, everyone
who is found
written
in the dbook
, will be rescued
.
" aMany of those who
sleep
in the dust
of the ground
will awake
, bthese
to everlasting
life
, but the others
to disgrace
and everlasting
1contempt
.
" 1Those who have ainsight
will bshine
brightly
like the brightness
of the 2expanse
of heaven
, and those who clead
the many
to righteousness
, like the stars
forever
and ever
.
"But as for you, Daniel, aconceal
these words
and bseal
up the book
until
the cend
of time
; dmany
will go
back
and forth
, and knowledge
will increase
."
Then 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
.
And aone said to the man
bdressed
in linen
, who
was above
the waters
of the river
, " cHow
long
will it be until
the end
of these wonders
?"
I heard the man
dressed
in linen
, who
was above
the waters
of the river
, 1as he araised
his right
hand
and his left
toward
heaven
, and swore
by bHim who
lives
forever
that it would be for a 2 ctime
, 2times
, and half
a 2time; and as soon as 3they finish
dshattering
the 4power
of the holy
people
, all
these
events will be completed
.
As for me, I heard but could not understand
; so I said
, "My lord
, what
will be the 1outcome
of these
events?"
He said, "Go
your way, Daniel
, for these words
are concealed
and asealed
up until
the end
time
.
" aMany will be purged
, 1purified
and refined
, but the bwicked
will act
wickedly
; and none
of the wicked
will understand
, but 2those who chave
insight
will understand
.
"From the time that the regular
sacrifice
is abolished
and the 1 aabomination
of desolation
is set
up, there will be 1,290
days
.
"How ablessed is he who keeps waiting
and attains
to the b1,335
days
!
"But as for you, go your way to the 1end
; then you will enter
into arest
and rise
again for your ballotted
portion
at the end
of the 2age
."
