< Daniel 12 >

1 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;
Ary amin’ izany andro izany dia hitsangana Mikaela, andrian-dehibe, izay mitsangana hiaro ny zanaky ny firenenao; ary hisy andro fahoriana, izay tsy nisy tahaka azy hatrizay nisian’ ny firenena ka hatramin’ izany andro izany; ary amin’ izany dia ho afaka ny firenenao, dia izay rehetra hita voasoratra ao amin’ ny boky.
2 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;
Ary maro amin’ izay matory ao amin’ ny vovoky ny tany no hifoha: ny sasany ho amin’ ny fiainana mandrakizay, ary ny sasany ho amin’ ny henatra sy ny latsa mandrakizay.
3 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.
Ary izay hendry dia hamirapiratra toy ny famirapiratry ny lanitra; ary izay mamerina ny maro ho amin’ ny fahamarinana dia ho tahaka ny kitana mandrakizay doria.
4 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.
Ary ianao, ry Daniela, dia ahoroninao ny teny, ka asio tombo-kase ny taratasy mandra-pihavin’ ny andro farany; maro no hazoto mandinika, ka hitombo ny fahalalana.
5 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.
Dia nijery aho Daniela, ka, indro, nisy roa hafa koa nitsangana ny anankiray teto amoron’ ny ony, ary ny anankiray kosa teroa an-dafiny.
6 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?
Ary hoy ny anankiray tamin’ ilay lehilahy mitafy rongony fotsy, izay teo ambonin’ ny rano amin’ ny ony: Mandra-pahoviana vao ho tanteraka ny faran’ ireo fahagagana ireo?
7 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.
Ary ilay lehilahy mitafy rongony fotsy, izay teo ambonin’ ny rano amin’ ny ony, dia nanandratra ny tànany ankavanana sy ny tànany ankavia ho amin’ ny lanitra ka reko nianiana tamin’ Izay velona mandrakizay izy fa ho fetr’ andro iray sy fetr’ andro roa ary antsasaky ny fetr’ andro; ary rehefa vita ny fanamontsamontsanana ny herin’ ny olo-masìna, dia ho tanteraka ireo rehetra ireo.
8 And, I, heard, but could not understand, —so I said, O my lord! what shall be the issue of these things?
Ary nandre izany aho, nefa tsy nahafantatra; dia hoy izaho: Tompoko ô, hanao ahoana no hiafaran’ ireo zavatra ireo?
9 Then said he, Go thy way, Daniel; for closed up and sealed are the words, until the time of the end.
Dia hoy izy: Andeha, ry Daniela, fa efa voahorona ny teny sady voaisy tombo-kase mandra-pihavin’ ny andro farany.
10 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;
Maro no hodiovina sy hofotsiana ary hozahan-toetra; fa ny ratsy fanahy kosa mbola hanao ratsy ihany, ary tsy hisy amin’ ny ratsy fanahy hahafantatra, fa ny hendry no hahafantatra.
11 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.
Ary hatramin’ ny andro hampitsaharana ny fanatitra isan’ andro sy hampidirana ny fahavetavetana mahatonga fandravana dia hisy andro sivifolo sy roan-jato amby arivo.
12 Happy! is he that waiteth, and attaineth to one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
Sambatra izay miandry sy mahatratra ny andro dimy amby telo-polo amby telon-jato sy arivo.
13 But, thou, go thy way to the end, —and thou shalt rest, and shalt rise to thy lot at the end of the days.
Fa mandehana ianao mandra-pihavin’ ny farany; fa hitsahatra ianao ka hitsangana ho ao amin’ ny anjaranao amin’ ny andro farany.
