Daniel 12

1 "At that time shall Michael arise, the great prince who watches over the children of your people. And there shall be a time of distress unparalleled since the beginning of the nation until that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone who shall be found written in the book.

١ «وَفِي ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ يَقُومُ الرَّئِيسُ الْعَظِيمُ الْمَلاكُ مِيخَائِيلُ حَارِسُ شَعْبِكَ، وَذَلِكَ فِي أَثْنَاءِ ضِيقٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَثِيلٌ مُنْذُ أَنْ وُجِدَتْ أُمَّةٌ حَتَّى ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ. غَيْرَ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ كَانَ اسْمُهُ مُدَوَّناً فِي الْكِتَابِ مِنْ شَعْبِكَ يَنْجُو فِي ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ.

2 Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

٢ وَيَسْتَيْقِظُ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ الْمَدْفُونِينَ فِي تُرَابِ الأَرْضِ، بَعْضُهُمْ لِيُثَابُوا بِالْحَيَاةِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ وَبَعْضُهُمْ لِيُسَامُوا ذُلَّ الْعَارِ وَالازْدِرَاءِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.

3 And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever.

٣ وَيُضِيءُ الْحُكَمَاءُ (أَيْ شَعْبُ اللهِ) كَضِيَاءِ الْجَلَدِ، وَكَذَلِكَ الَّذِينَ رَدُّوا كَثِيرِينَ إِلَى الْبِرِّ يَشِعُّونَ كَالْكَوَاكِبِ إِلَى مَدَى الدَّهْرِ.

4 But you, Daniel, close up these words, and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall roam here and there, and knowledge shall increase."

٤ أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا دَانِيَالُ فَاكْتُمِ الْكَلامَ، وَاخْتِمْ عَلَى الْكِتَابِ إِلَى مِيعَادِ النِّهَايَةِ. وَكَثِيرُونَ يَطُوفُونَ فِي الأَرْضِ وَتَزْدَادُ الْمَعْرِفَةُ».

5 Then I, Daniel, looked, and look, two others stood, one on this bank of the river, and one on the other bank of the river.

٥ ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ أَنَا دَانِيَالَ فَإِذَا بِاثْنَيْنِ آخَرَيْنِ وَقَفَ كُلٌّ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى ضَفَّةٍ مِنْ ضَفَّتَيِ النَّهْرِ،

6 And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, "How long shall it be till these wonders take place?"

٦ سَأَلَ أَحَدُهُمَا الرَّجُلَ اللّابِسَ الْكَتَّانِ الْوَاقِفَ عَلَى مِيَاهِ النَّهْرِ: «مَتَى يَنْقَضِي زَمَنُ هَذِهِ الأَحْدَاثِ الْعَجِيبَةِ؟».

7 I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and swore by him who lives forever that it shall be for a time, times, and a half; and when they have made an end of breaking in pieces the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

٧ فَسَمِعْتُ الرَّجُلَ اللّابِسَ الْكَتَّانِ الْوَاقِفَ فَوْقَ مِيَاهِ النَّهْرِ يَقُولُ، بَعْدَ أَنْ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ نَحْوَ السَّمَاوَاتِ مُقْسِماً بِالْحَيِّ إِلَى الأَبَدِ: «تَنْقَضِي هَذِهِ الْعَجَائِبُ بَعْدَ ثَلاثِ سَنَوَاتٍ وَنِصْفٍ، حِينَ يَتِمُّ تَشْتِيتُ قُوَّةِ الشَّعْبِ الْمُقَدَّسِ».

8 And I heard, but I did not understand. Then I said, "My lord, what shall be the outcome of these things?"

٨ فَسَمِعْتُ مَا قَالَهُ وَلَكِنَّنِي لَمْ أَفْهَمْ، فَسَأَلْتُ: «يَا سَيِّدِي مَا هِيَ آخِرُ هَذِهِ؟»

9 And he said, "Go your way, Daniel, for the words are shut up and sealed until the time of the end.

٩ فَأَجَابَ: «اذْهَبْ يَا دَانِيَالُ لأَنَّ الْكَلِمَاتِ مَكْتُومَةٌ وَمَخْتُومَةٌ إِلَى وَقْتِ النِّهَايَةِ.

10 Many shall be purified, cleansed and refined; but the wicked shall act wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, but those who are wise shall understand.

١٠ كَثِيرُونَ يَتَطَهَّرُونَ وَيَتَنَقَّوْنَ وَيُمَحَّصُونَ بِالتَّجَارِبِ، أَمَّا الأَشْرَارُ فَيَرْتَكِبُونَ شَرّاً وَلا يَفْهَمُونَ. إِنَّمَا ذَوُو الْفِطْنَةِ يُدْرِكُونَ.

11 From the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred ninety days.

١١ أَمَّا الْفَتْرَةُ مَا بَيْنَ إِزَالَةِ الْمُحْرَقَةِ الدَّائِمَةِ وَإِقَامَةِ رِجْسِ الْمُخَرَّبِ، فَهِيَ أَلْفٌ وَمِئَتَانِ وَتِسْعُونَ يَوْماً.

12 Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred thirty-five days.

١٢ فَطُوبَى لِمَنْ يَنْتَظِرُ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ إِلَى الأَلْفِ وَالثَّلاثِ مِئَةٍ وَالْخَمْسَةِ وَالثَّلاثِينَ يَوْماً.

13 But go your way until the end. For you shall rest, and shall rise to receive your reward at the end of the days.

١٣ وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَاذْهَبْ إِلَى آخِرَتِكَ فَتَسْتَرِيحَ، ثُمَّ تَقُومَ فِي نِهَايَةِ الأَيَّامِ لِتُثَابَ بِمَا قُسِمَ لَكَ».
