Daniel 12

1 And at that time shall Michael stand vp, ye great prince, which standeth for ye children of thy people, and there shall be a time of trouble, such as neuer was since there began to be a nation vnto that same time: and at that time thy people shall be deliuered, euery one that shall be foud written in ye boke.

“But at that time Michael will rise up, the great leader, who stands up for the sons of your people. And a time will come, such as has not been from the time that nations began, even until that time. And, at that time, your people will be saved, all who will be found written in the book.

2 And many of them that sleepe in the dust of the earth, shall awake, some to euerlasting life, and some to shame and perpetuall contempt.

And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth will awaken: some to everlasting life, and others to a reproach that they will always see.

3 And they that be wise, shall shine, as ye brightnes of the firmament: and they that turne many to righteousnes, shall shine as the starres, for euer and euer.

But those who have taught will shine like the brightness of the firmament, and those who instruct many towards justice, like the stars for unending eternity.

4 But thou, O Daniel, shut vp the words, and seale the boke til the end of the time: many shall run to and from, and knowledge shall be increased.

But you, Daniel, close the message and seal the book, until the established time. Many will pass through, and knowledge will be increased.”

5 Then I Daniel looked, and behold, there stood other two, ye one on this side of ye brinke of ye riuer, and the other on that side of ye brinke of the riuer.

And I, Daniel, looked, and behold, similarly two others stood up, one over here, on the bank of the river, and the other over there, on the other bank of the river.

6 And one saide vnto the man clothed in linen, which was vpon ye waters of the riuer, When shalbe the ende of these wonders?

And I said to the man, who was clothed in linen, who stood over the waters of the river, “How long will it be until the end of these wonders?”

7 And I heard ye man clothed in line which was vpon the waters of the riuer, when he helde vp his right hand, and his left hand vnto heauen, and sware by him that liueth for euer, that it shall tarie for a time, two times and an halfe: and when he shall haue accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

And I heard the man, who was clothed in linen, who stood over the waters of the river, when he had lifted his right hand and his left hand up to heaven, and had sworn by He who lives forever, that it would be for a time, and times, and half a time. And when the dispersion of the hand of the holy people is completed, all these things will be completed.

8 The I heard it, but I vnderstood it not: the said I, O my Lord, what shalbe ye end of these things?

And I heard and did not understand. And I said, “My lord, what will be after these things?”

9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for ye words are closed vp, and sealed, till the ende of the time.

And he said, “Go, Daniel, for the words are closed and sealed until the predetermined time.

10 Many shalbe purified, made white, and tried: but the wicked shall doe wickedly, and none of the wicked shall haue vnderstanding: but the wise shall vnderstand.

Many will be chosen and purified, and, as if by fire, they will be tested, and the impious will act impiously, and none of the impious will understand, yet the teachers will understand.

11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shalbe take away and the abominable desolatio set vp, there shalbe a thousand, two hundreth and ninetie daies.

And from the time when the continual sacrifice will be taken away and the abomination of desolation will be set up, there will be one thousand two hundred ninety days.

12 Blessed is he that waiteth and commeth to the thousand, three hundreth and fiue and thirtie daies.

Blessed is he who waits and reaches until one thousand three hundred thirty-five days.

13 But go thou thy way til the end be: for thou shalt rest and stand vp in thy lot, at the end of ye daies.

But you, go, until the predetermined time, and you will rest and will stand in your allotted place at the end of days.
