Daniel 12
1 [The angel also said to me, ] “After those things happen, the great angel Michael, who protects the [Israeli] people, will appear. Then there will be a time when there will be great troubles/suffering. The troubles will be greater than any troubles/suffering since the nations began. At that time, all of your people whose names have been written in the book [containing the names of those who have eternal life] will be saved.
Og paa den Tid skal Mikael, den store Fyrste, der staar som Værn for dit Folks Børn, staa frem, og der skal være en Trængsels Tid, som aldrig har været, siden Folk blev til og indtil den Tid; og paa samme Tid skal dit Folk undkomme, hver den, som findes skreven i Bogen.
2 Many of those who have died [EUP] will become alive again. Some of them will live eternally [with God], and some will be eternally shamed/disgraced [in hell]. (questioned)
Og mange af dem, som sove i Støvets Jord, skulle opvaagne, somme til et evigt Liv, og somme til Skam, til evig Afsky.
3 Those who were wise will shine as brightly as the sky [is bright when the sun is shining]. And those who have shown to others the way to live righteously will shine forever, like the stars [SIM].
Men de forstandige skulle skinne som den udstrakte Befæstnings Skin; og de, der førte de mange til Retfærdighed, som Stjernerne evindelig og altid.
4 But as for you, Daniel, close up the scroll [on which you are writing], and seal it [in order that no one can open it] until the end [of the world] is near. [Before that happens, ] many people will travel rapidly here and there, learning more and more [about many things].”
Og du, Daniel, luk til for Ordene, og forsegl Bogen indtil Endens Tid; mange skulle søge ivrigt i den, og Kundskab skal blive mangfoldig.
5 When [that angel finished speaking], I, Daniel, looked up, and suddenly I saw two other [angels]. One was standing on the side of the river [where I was], and one was standing on the other side.
Og jeg, Daniel, jeg saa, og se, der stod to andre, een her paa Bredden af Floden, og een der paa Bredden af Floden.
6 One of them [called to] the other one, who was wearing linen/white clothes, who was now standing further up (OR, above) the river, “How long will it be until these amazing/frightening events end?”
Og der blev sagt til den Mand, som var iført de linnede Klæder, og som stod oven over Flodens Vande: Hvor længe skal det vare med Enden paa disse underfulde Ting?
7 The angel who was on the other side of (OR, above) the river raised his hands toward the sky, and solemnly promised, with the authority [MTY] of God, who lives forever, “It will be three and a half years. All these things will end after God’s people stop fighting against those who (persecute/cause trouble for/cause suffering for) them.”
Og jeg hørte Manden, som var iført de linnede Klæder, og som stod oven over Flodens Vande, og han opløftede sin højre Haand og sin venstre Haand imod Himlene og svor ved ham, som lever evindelig: Igennem een Tid, Tider og en halv Tid, og naar det hellige Folks Magt fuldstændigt er knust, skulle alle disse Ting fuldendes.
8 I heard [what he said], but I did not understand it. So I asked, “Sir, what will be the result when these things end?”
Og jeg hørte det, men forstod det ikke; og jeg sagde: Min Herre! hvad er det sidste af dette?
9 He replied, “Daniel, you must leave now. [I cannot answer your question] because what it means must (be kept secret/not be revealed) [DOU] until the time when everything ends.
Og han sagde: Gak bort, Daniel! thi Ordene skulle være tillukkede og forseglede indtil Endens Tid.
10 Many people will thoroughly purify their inner beings [DOU]. But wicked people will not understand these things. They will continue to be wicked. Only those who are wise will understand [these things].
Mange skulle rense sig og to sig hvide og lutre sig, men de ugudelige skulle handle ugudeligt, og ingen af de ugudelige skal forstaa det; men de forstandige skulle forstaa det.
11 [But I can tell you that before everything ends, ] there will be 1,290 days, from the time that people are prevented from offering sacrifices each day, that is, from the time that the abominable/disgusting thing is put in the temple.
Og fra den Tid, da den stadige Tjeneste bliver borttagen, og det for at opstille Ødelæggelsens Vederstyggelighed, er der Tusinde to Hundrede og halvfemsindstyve Dage.
12 God will be pleased with those who remain faithful until 1,335 days are ended.
Salig er den, som bier og naar til Tusinde tre Hundrede fem og tredive Dage.
13 So [now I say] to you, continue to faithfully [trust God] until [your life on earth] ends. You will die [EUP], but when everything ends, you will receive your reward [from God].”
Men gak du dit Endeligt i Møde, og hvil, og staa frem til din Lod ved Dagenes Ende!
