< Daniel 12 >

1 And at that time Michael the great prince shall stand up, that stands over the children of your people: and there shall be a time of tribulation, such tribulation as has not been from the time that there was a nation on the earth until that time: at that time your people shall be delivered, [even] every one that is written in the book.
“Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo Mikaeli, mũnene ũrĩa ũgitagĩra andũ anyu, nĩakarahũka. Nĩgũkaagĩa ihinda rĩa mĩnyamaro mĩingĩ ĩtarĩ yoneka ĩngĩ tayo kuuma rĩrĩa andũ mambĩrĩrie gũtuĩka ndũrĩrĩ nginya hĩndĩ ĩyo. No rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo andũ anyu makaahonokio, mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũgaakorwo aandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ.
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproach and everlasting shame.
Kĩrĩndĩ kĩingĩ kĩa arĩa makomete rũkũngũ-inĩ rwa thĩ nĩmakariũkio: amwe mariũkĩre muoyo-inĩ ũrĩa ũtagaathira, nao arĩa angĩ mariũke nĩgeetha maconorithio na matũũre marĩ amene tene na tene.
3 And the wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and [some] of the many righteous as the stars for ever and ever.
Arĩa oogĩ magaacangarara ta ũtheri wa igũrũ, nao arĩa macookagia andũ njĩra-inĩ cia ũthingu magaakenga ta njata tene na tene.
4 And you, Daniel, close the words, and seal the book to the time of the end; until many are taught, and knowledge is increased.
No wee, Danieli, hinga ibuku na ũhũũre mũhũũri ciugo icio nyandĩke ibuku-inĩ rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo, nginya rĩrĩa ithirĩro rĩgaakinya. Amu andũ aingĩ nĩmakorũũraga kũndũ na kũndũ nĩguo mongerere ũmenyo.”
5 And I Daniel saw, and, behold, two others stood, on one side of the bank of the river, and the other on the other side of the bank of the river.
Thuutha wa maũndũ macio, niĩ Danieli ngĩrora, ngĩona hau mbere yakwa harũngiĩ andũ angĩ eerĩ, ũmwe wao arũngiĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia mũrĩmo ũyũ wa rũũĩ nake ũcio ũngĩ akarũgama hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ.
6 And [one] said to the man clothed in linen, who was over the water of the river, When [will be] the end of the wonders which you has mentioned?
Ũmwe wao akĩarĩria mũndũ ũcio wehumbĩte nguo cia gatani, o ũcio warũgamĩte igũrũ rĩa maaĩ ma rũũĩ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ macio ma kũgegania megũikara ihinda rĩigana atĩa magĩkahinga?”
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, who was over the water of the river, and he lifted up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and sware by him that lives for ever, that [it should be] for a time of times and half a time: when the dispersion is ended they shall know all these things.
Mũndũ ũcio wehumbĩte nguo cia gatani, o ũcio warũgamĩte igũrũ rĩa maaĩ ma rũũĩ, akĩambararia guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo o na ningĩ kwa ũmotho amerekeirie na igũrũ, ngĩcooka ngĩigua ehĩta na rĩĩtwa rĩa ũrĩa ũtũũraga tene na tene, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ macio megũikara ihinda rĩmwe, na mahinda meerĩ, na nuthu ya ihinda. Rĩrĩa hinya wa andũ arĩa atheru ũgaakorwo ũrĩ mũniine biũ-rĩ, nĩguo maũndũ macio mothe makaahingio.”
8 And I heard, but I understood not: and I said, O Lord, what [will be] the end of these things?
Niĩ ngĩĩiguĩra maũndũ macio, no ndiigana gũtaũkĩrwo nĩ mo. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathi wakwa, kĩrĩkĩrĩro kĩa maũndũ macio mothe-rĩ, gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ kĩĩ?”
9 And he said, Go, Daniel: for the words are closed and sealed up to the time of the end.
Nake akĩnjookeria, akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee Danieli wĩthiĩre, tondũ ciugo icio nĩhingĩre na ikahũũrwo mũhũũri nginya ihinda rĩa ithirĩro.
10 Many must be tested, and thoroughly whitened, and tried with fire, and sanctified; but the transgressors shall transgress: and none of the transgressors shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
Andũ aingĩ nĩmagatherio, mathirwo nĩ gĩko merũhio, taarĩ gũkumuthwo makumuthĩtwo magathera, no arĩa aaganu nĩmagakĩrĩrĩria kwagana, na gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wao ũkaamenya gĩtũmi kĩa maũndũ macio, no arĩa oogĩ nĩmakamamenya.
11 And from the time of the removal of the perpetual sacrifice, when the abomination of desolation shall be set up, [there shall be] a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
“Kuuma ihinda rĩrĩa magongona ma o mũthenya makaniinwo, na ithenya rĩamo harũgamio kĩndũ kĩrĩa kĩrĩ thaahu, kĩrĩa kĩngĩtũma bũrũri ũkire ihooru, gũgaakorwo kũrĩ mĩthenya 1,290.
12 Blessed is he that waits, and comes to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ ũrĩa ũgweterera na akinyĩrie mũthia wa mĩthenya 1,335.
13 But go you, and rest; for [there are] yet days and seasons to the fulfillment of the end; and you shall stand in your lot at the end of the days.
“No wee-rĩ, wĩthiĩre nginya hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ithirĩro rĩgaakinya. Nĩũkahurũka, na ningĩ marigĩrĩrio ma mĩthenya ĩyo nĩũkariũka nĩgeetha wamũkĩre igai rĩaku.”
