Daniel 12

1 “And at that time Michael stands up, the great head, who is standing up for the sons of your people, and there has been a time of distress, such as has not been since there has been a nation until that time, and at that time your people escape, everyone who is found written in the scroll.

And, at that time, will Michael, the great ruler who standeth for the sons of thy people, make a stand, and there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, up to that time, —and, at that time, shall thy people, be delivered, every one found written in the book;

2 And the multitude of those sleeping in the dust of the ground awake, some to continuous life, and some to reproaches—to continuous abhorrence.

and, many of the sleepers in the dusty ground, shall awake, —these, [shall be] to age-abiding life, but, those, to reproach, and age-abiding abhorrence;

3 And those teaching shine as the brightness of the expanse, and those justifying the multitude as stars for all time and forever.”

and, they who make wise, shall shine like the shining of the expanse, —and, they who bring the many to righteousness, like the stars to times age-abiding and beyond.

4 “And you, O Daniel, hide the things, and seal the scroll until the time of the end, many go to and fro, and knowledge is multiplied.”

But, thou, Daniel, close up the words, and seal the book, until the time of the end, —many will run to and fro, and knowledge, shall abound.

5 “And I have looked—I, Daniel—and behold, two others are standing, one here at the edge of the flood and one there at the edge of the flood,

Then, I, Daniel, looked, and lo! two others, standing, —one on this side of the bank of the river, and one on that side of the bank of the river.

6 and he says to the one clothed in linen, who [is] on the waters of the flood, Until when [is] the end of these wonders?

And one said to the man clothed with linen, who was upon the waters of the river, How long shall be the end of the wonders?

7 And I hear the one clothed in linen, who [is] on the waters of the flood, and he lifts up his right hand and his left to the heavens, and swears by Him who is living for all time, that, After a time, times, and a half, and at the completion of the scattering of the power of the holy people, all these are finished.

And I heard the man clothed with linen who was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left unto the heavens, and sware by him that liveth unto times age-abiding, —For a set time and times and a half, and, when the dispersion of a part of the holy people, is brought to an end, then shall come to an end all these things.

8 And I have heard, and I do not understand, and I say, O my lord, what [is] the latter end of these?

And, I, heard, but could not understand, —so I said, O my lord! what shall be the issue of these things?

9 And he says, Go, Daniel; for hidden and sealed [are] the things until the time of the end.

Then said he, Go thy way, Daniel; for closed up and sealed are the words, until the time of the end.

10 Purify themselves, indeed, make themselves white, indeed, many are refined: and the wicked have done wickedly, and none of the wicked understand, and those acting wisely understand;

Many, will purify themselves and be made white and be refined, but the lawless, will act lawlessly, and none of the lawless, shall understand, —but, they who make wise, shall understand;

11 and from the time of the turning aside of the continuous [sacrifice], and to the giving out of the desolating abomination, [are] one thousand, two hundred, and ninety days.

and, from the time of the taking away of the continual [ascending-sacrifice], and the placing of the horrid abomination that astoundeth, [shall be] one thousand two hundred and ninety days.

12 O the blessedness of him who is waiting earnestly, and comes to the one thousand, three hundred, thirty-five days.

Happy! is he that waiteth, and attaineth to one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.

13 And you, go on to the end, then you rest, and stand in your lot at the end of the days.”

But, thou, go thy way to the end, —and thou shalt rest, and shalt rise to thy lot at the end of the days.
