Daniel 12
1 E naquele tempo se levantará Miguel, o grande príncipe que está a favor dos filhos de teu povo; e será tempo de angústia tal que nunca houve desde que as nações surgiram até aquele tempo; mas naquele tempo o teu povo será livrado, todo aquele os que se achar escrito no livro.
[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.
2 E muitos dos que dormem no pó da terra ressuscitarão, uns para a vida eterna, e outros para a vergonha e o desprezo eterno.
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)
3 E os sábios brilharão como o resplendor do céu; e os que conduzem muitos à justiça [brilharão] como as estrelas, para todo o sempre.
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].
4 Porém tu, Daniel, guarda em segredo estas palavras e sela o livro até o tempo do fim; muitos correrão de um lado para o outro, e o conhecimento se multiplicará.
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].”
5 Então eu, Daniel, olhei, e eis outros dois que estavam de pé, um à margem do rio, e o outro à outra margem do rio.
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.
6 E ele disse ao homem vestido de linho, que estava sobre as águas do rio: Quando será o fim destas maravilhas?
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?”
7 E ouvi o homem vestido de linho, que estava sobre as águas do rio, e levantou sua mão direita e sua esquerda ao céu, e jurou por aquele que vive eternamente; que será depois de um tempo, tempos, e a metade [de um tempo]. Quando acabarem de despedaçar o poder do povo santo, todas estas coisas serão cumpridas.
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.”
8 E eu ouvi, mas não entendi. Por isso eu disse: Meu senhor, o que será o cumprimento destas coisas?
I heard [what he said], but I did not understand it. So I asked, “Sir, what will be the result when these things end?”
9 E ele disse: Caminha, Daniel, pois estas palavras estão guardadas em segredo e seladas até o tempo do fim.
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.
10 Muitos serão purificados, limpos, e refinados; porém os maus agirão malignamente, e nenhum dos maus entenderá, porém os sábios entenderão.
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].
11 E desde o tempo em que o contínuo [sacrifício] for tirado, e posta a abominação assoladora, haverá mil duzentos e noventa dias.
[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.
12 Bem-aventurado o que esperar, e chegar até mil trezentos e trinta e cinco dias.
God will be pleased with those who remain faithful until 1,335 days are ended.
13 Tu, porém, caminha até o fim; porque repousarás, e ressuscitarás em tua herança no fim dos dias.
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].”
