Daniel 12
1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince who standeth for the children of thy people; and there shall be a time of distress, such as never was since there was a nation until that time. And at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that is found written in the book.
U ono će vrijeme ustati Mihael, veliki knez koji štiti sinove tvog naroda. Bit će to vrijeme tjeskobe kakve ne bijaše otkako je ljudi pa do toga vremena. U ono vrijeme tvoj će se narod spasiti - svi koji se nađu zapisani u Knjizi.
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame, to everlasting contempt.
Tada će se probuditi mnogi koji snivaju u prahu zemljinu; jedni za vječni život, drugi za sramotu, za vječnu gadost.
3 And they that are wise shall shine as the brightness of the expanse; and they that turn the many to righteousness as the stars, for ever and ever.
Umnici će blistati kao sjajni nebeski svod, i koji su mnoge učili pravednosti, kao zvijezde navijeke, u svu vječnost.
4 And thou, Daniel, close the words, and seal the book, till the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
A ti, Daniele, drži u tajnosti ove riječi i zapečati ovu knjigu do vremena svršetka! Mnogi će tumarati, i bezakonja će rasti.”
5 And I Daniel looked, and behold, there stood other two, the one on this side, on the bank of the river, and the other on that side, on the bank of the river.
Ja, Daniel, pogledah, kad eno: druga dvojica stajahu jedan s jedne, drugi s druge strane rijeke.
6 And he said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, How long [is it to] the end of these wonders?
Jedan upita čovjeka odjevena u lanene haljine koji stajaše iznad voda rijeke: “Kada će doći kraj tim čudesima?”
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river; and he held up his right hand and his left hand unto the heavens, and swore by him that liveth for ever that it is for a time, times, and a half; and when the scattering of the power of the holy people shall be accomplished, all these things shall be finished.
Začuh čovjeka odjevena u lanene haljine, koji stajaše iznad voda rijeke; on podiže k nebu desnicu i ljevicu, kunući se Vječno živim. “Nakon jednog vremena, dva vremena i pola vremena - kada dođe kraj rasulu snage svetoga naroda - sve će se to svršiti.”
8 And I heard, but I understood not. And I said, My lord, what shall be the end of these things?
Ja slušah, ali ne razumjeh, pa upitah: “Gospodaru, kako će to svršiti?”
9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel; for these words are closed and sealed till the time of the end.
On reče: “Idi, Daniele, ove su riječi tajne i zapečaćene do vremena svršetka.
10 Many shall be purified, and be made white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
Mnogi će se očistiti, ubijeliti i prokušati; a bezbožnici će i dalje biti bezbožni; bezbožnici se neće urazumjeti, a umnici će razumjeti.
11 And from the time that the continual [sacrifice] is taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, [there shall be] a thousand, two hundred, and ninety days.
Od časa kad bude dokinuta svagdašnja žrtva i postavljena grozota pustoši: tisuću dvjesta i devedeset dana.
12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days!
Blago onomu koji dočeka i dosegne tisuću trista trideset i pet dana!
13 But do thou go thy way until the end; and thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.
A ti idi i otpočini; ustat ćeš da primiš svoju baštinu na kraju dana.”
