Daniel 12
1 “Nʼoge ahụ, Maikel, onyeisi ọchịchị ukwuu ahụ, nke na-eche ndị unu, ga-ebili. Ọ ga-abụ oge nhụju anya, a na-ahụtụbeghị ụdị ya site na mgbe mba ọbụla malitere ruo ugbu a. Ma mgbe ahụ, ndị gị niile, ndị e dere aha ha nʼakwụkwọ ahụ, ka a ga-anapụta.
“At that time Michael will stand up, the great prince who stands for the children of your people; and there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time. At that time your people will be delivered, everyone who is found written in the book.
2 Igwe ndị niile nwụrụ anwụ, ndị e likwara, ha ga-ebilite. Ụfọdụ ha ga-ebili baa na ndụ ebighị ebi, ma ụfọdụ ga-ebili keta ihere na ịbụ ọnụ nke ebighị ebi.
Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3 Ndị ahụ bụ ndị maara ihe, ka a ga-eme ka ha nwuo ọcha dịka ihe mbara eluigwe. Ndị ahụ niile na-emekwa ka ọtụtụ si nʼihe ọjọọ mee ezi omume ga-enwukwa dịka kpakpando ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
Those who are wise will shine as the brightness of the expanse. Those who turn many to righteousness will shine as the stars forever and ever.
4 Ma gị bụ Daniel, zoo okwu e dere nʼakwụkwọ a, mechiekwa ma kachiekwa ha akara tutu ruo ọgwụgwụ oge. Ọtụtụ ga-agbagharị ebe na ebe ọzọ, ma ihe ọmụma ga-aba ụba.”
But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, even to the time of the end. Many will run back and forth, and knowledge will be increased.”
5 Mgbe ahụ, mụ bụ Daniel weliri anya hụ mmadụ abụọ ndị ọzọ ka ha nọ nʼakụkụ osimiri ahụ, otu nʼakụkụ nke a, otu nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ.
Then I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others stood, one on the river bank on this side, and the other on the river bank on that side.
6 Otu nʼime ha juru nwoke ahụ yi uwe akwa ọcha, nke guzo nʼakụkụ elu elu nke osimiri ahụ ajụjụ, sị, “Olee mgbe ihe ndị a na-eyi egwu ga-emezu?”
One said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, “How long will it be to the end of these wonders?”
7 Nwoke ahụ yi uwe akwa ọcha, nke nọ nʼakụkụ elu elu mmiri nke osimiri ahụ chịlịri aka nri na aka ekpe ya elu. Anụkwara m mgbe o ji Onye ahụ na-adị ndụ ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi ṅụọ iyi, “Nʼihe ndị a ga-emezu naanị mgbe afọ atọ na ọkara gafere, tupu onye ahụ na-emebi ike nke ndị dị nsọ ga-abịa nʼisi ngwụcha ndụ ya, ihe ndị a niile ga-emezucha.”
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 will be for a time, times, and a half; and when they have finished breaking in pieces the power of the holy people, all these things will be finished.
8 Anụrụ m ma aghọtaghị m, nʼihi nke a, a sịrị m, “Biko, Onyenwe m, gịnị ka ihe ndị a ga-apụta?”
I heard, but I didn’t understand. Then I said, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these things?”
9 Ọ sịrị, “Daniel, gawara onwe gị. Nʼihi na-apịachiela okwu ndị a, kachiekwa ya akara tutu ruo nʼọgwụgwụ oge.
He said, “Go your way, Daniel; for the words are shut up and sealed until the time of the end.
10 Ọtụtụ ka a ga-eme ka ha dị ọcha, sachaa ha mee ka ha dị ọcha na-enweghị ntụpọ, a ga-anụchakwa ha. Ma ndị ajọ omume ga-aga nʼihu nʼajọ omume ha. O nweghị onye ajọ omume nke ga-aghọtakwa ihe, ma ndị ahụ maara ihe ga-aghọta ihe ihe a pụtara.
Many will purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined, but the wicked will do wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.
11 “Site nʼoge e mechiri ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ nke a na-achụ kwa ụbọchị niile ruo nʼoge a ga-ewuli ihe arụ ahụ nke na-eweta mbibi, ga-abụ otu puku ụbọchị, na narị ụbọchị abụọ na iri ụbọchị itoolu.
“From the time that the continual burnt offering is taken away and the abomination that makes desolate set up, there will be one thousand two hundred ninety days.
12 Ngọzị ga-adịrị onye ahụ nke na-echere, ma nọgidesịkwa ike ruo mgbe otu puku ụbọchị, na narị ụbọchị atọ, na iri ụbọchị atọ na ise ahụ gafere.
Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred thirty-five days.
13 “Ma gị onwe, gawara onwe gị ruo ọgwụgwụ ihe ndị a. Ị ga-ezukwa ike, ị ga-ebilitekwa nʼoge ikpeazụ ịnara ihe nketa nke ruuru gị.”
“But go your way until the end; for you will rest, and will stand in your inheritance at the end of the days.”
