< Danihelis Prophetæ 12 >
1 In tempore autem illo consurget Michaël princeps magnus, qui stat pro filiis populi tui: et veniet tempus quale non fuit ab eo ex quo gentes esse cœperunt usque ad tempus illud. Et in tempore illo salvabitur populus tuus, omnis qui inventus fuerit scriptus in libro.
'And at that time stand up doth Michael, the great head, who is standing up for the sons of thy people, and there hath been a time of distress, such as hath not been since there hath been a nation till that time, and at that time do thy people escape, every one who is found written in the book.
2 Et multi de his qui dormiunt in terræ pulvere evigilabunt, alii in vitam æternam, et alii in opprobrium ut videant semper.
'And the multitude of those sleeping in the dust of the ground do awake, some to life age-during, and some to reproaches — to abhorrence age-during.
3 Qui autem docti fuerint, fulgebunt quasi splendor firmamenti: et qui ad justitiam erudiunt multos, quasi stellæ in perpetuas æternitates.
And those teaching do shine as the brightness of the expanse, and those justifying the multitude as stars to the age and for ever.
4 Tu autem Daniel, claude sermones, et signa librum usque ad tempus statutum: plurimi pertransibunt, et multiplex erit scientia.
And thou, O Daniel, hide the things, and seal the book till the time of the end, many do go to and fro, and knowledge is multiplied.'
5 Et vidi ego Daniel, et ecce quasi duo alii stabant: unus hinc super ripam fluminis, et alius inde ex altera ripa fluminis.
And I have looked — I, Daniel — and lo, two others are standing, one here at the edge of the flood, and one there at the edge of the flood,
6 Et dixi viro qui erat indutus lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis: Usquequo finis horum mirabilium?
and he saith to the one clothed in linen, who [is] upon the waters of the flood, 'Till when [is] the end of these wonders?'
7 Et audivi virum qui indutus erat lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis, cum elevasset dexteram et sinistram suam in cælum, et jurasset per viventem in æternum, quia in tempus, et tempora, et dimidium temporis. Et cum completa fuerit dispersio manus populi sancti, complebuntur universa hæc.
And I hear the one clothed in linen, who [is] upon the waters of the flood, and he doth lift up his right hand and his left unto the heavens, and sweareth by Him who is living to the age, that, 'After a time, times, and a half, and at the completion of the scattering of the power of the holy people, finished are all these.'
8 Et ego audivi, et non intellexi. Et dixi: Domine mi, quid erit post hæc?
And I have heard, and I do not understand, and I say, 'O my lord, what [is] the latter end of these?'
9 Et ait: Vade, Daniel, quia clausi sunt signatique sermones usque ad præfinitum tempus.
And he saith, 'Go, Daniel; for hidden and sealed [are] the things till the time of the end;
10 Eligentur, et dealbabuntur, et quasi ignis probabuntur multi: et impie agent impii, neque intelligent omnes impii: porro docti intelligent.
Purify themselves, yea, make themselves white, yea, refined are many: and the wicked have done wickedly, and none of the wicked understand, and those acting wisely do understand;
11 Et a tempore cum ablatum fuerit juge sacrificium, et posita fuerit abominatio in desolationem, dies mille ducenti nonaginta.
and from the time of the turning aside of the perpetual [sacrifice], and to the giving out of the desolating abomination, [are] days a thousand, two hundred, and ninety.
12 Beatus qui exspectat, et pervenit usque ad dies mille trecentos triginta quinque.
O the blessedness of him who is waiting earnestly, and doth come to the days, a thousand, three hundred, thirty and five.
13 Tu autem vade ad præfinitum: et requiesces, et stabis in sorte tua in finem dierum.
And thou, go on to the end, then thou dost rest, and dost stand in thy lot at the end of the days.'
