Daniel 12
1 “Saa bere no, Mikael, ɔhene babarima titiriw a ɔbɔ wo nkurɔfo ho ban no bɛsɔre. Ahohia bere bi bɛba a, efi aman no mfiase besi saa da no, biribi a ɛte saa nsii da. Nanso saa bere no, wo nkurɔfo no mu biara a wobehu sɛ wɔakyerɛw ne din wɔ nhoma no mu no, wobegye no nkwa.
“And at that time Michael stands up, the great head, who is standing up for the sons of your people, and there has been a time of distress, such as has not been since there has been a nation until that time, and at that time your people escape, everyone who is found written in the scroll.
2 Nnipadɔm a wɔadeda fam wɔ dɔte mu no benyan: ebinom bɛkɔ daa nkwa mu, na ebinom nso akɔ aniwu ne daa ahohora mu.
And the multitude of those sleeping in the dust of the ground awake, some to continuous life, and some to reproaches—to continuous abhorrence.
3 Wɔn a wɔyɛ anyansafo no bɛhyerɛn te sɛnea ɔsoro hyerɛn, na wɔn a wɔdan afoforo kɔɔ trenee mu no bɛhyerɛn sɛ nsoromma, daapem.
And those teaching shine as the brightness of the expanse, and those justifying the multitude as stars for all time and forever.”
4 Nanso wo Daniel, bobɔw na sɔw nsɛm a ɛwɔ nhoma mmobɔwee no ano kosi awiei bere no. Bebree bekyinkyin akɔpɛ nimdeɛ.”
“And you, O Daniel, hide the things, and seal the scroll until the time of the end, many go to and fro, and knowledge is multiplied.”
5 Afei, me Daniel, mehwɛ huu nnipa baanu bi wɔ mʼanim; ɔbaako gyina asubɔnten no konkɔn so, na ɔbaako nso gyina konkɔn a ɛhwɛ baako no anim no so.
“And I have looked—I, Daniel—and behold, two others are standing, one here at the edge of the flood and one there at the edge of the flood,
6 Wɔn mu baako bisaa ɔbarima a ofura nwera a ogyina asu no so no se, “Ebedi nnaahe ansa na anwonwade yi aba mu?”
and he says to the one clothed in linen, who [is] on the waters of the flood, Until when [is] the end of these wonders?
7 Ɔbarima no a ofura nwera na ɔwɔ asu no so no maa ne nsa nifa ne benkum so kyerɛɛ ɔsoro, na metee sɛ ɔde nea ɔte hɔ daa no kaa ntam se, “Ɛbɛkɔ so saa ara akosi bere bi, mmere bi ne bere sin bi. Sɛ nnipa kronkron no tumisɛe no ba awiei koraa a, wobewie saa nneɛma yi nyinaa.”
And I hear the one clothed in linen, who [is] on the waters of the flood, and he lifts up his right hand and his left to the heavens, and swears by Him who is living for all time, that, After a time, times, and a half, and at the completion of the scattering of the power of the holy people, all these are finished.
8 Metee, nanso mante ase. Enti mibisae se, “Me Wura dɛn na ebefi eyinom nyinaa mu aba?”
And I have heard, and I do not understand, and I say, O my lord, what [is] the latter end of these?
9 Na obuae se, “Daniel kɔ, efisɛ wɔabobɔ nsɛm no so, asɔw ano de akosi awiei mmere no.
And he says, Go, Daniel; for hidden and sealed [are] the things until the time of the end.
10 Wɔbɛhohoro bebree ho a fi ne nkekae biara renka wɔn ho, nanso atirimɔdenfo bɛkɔ so ayɛ atirimɔden; wɔn mu biara rente ase, nanso anyansafo de wɔbɛte ase.
Purify themselves, indeed, make themselves white, indeed, many are refined: and the wicked have done wickedly, and none of the wicked understand, and those acting wisely understand;
11 “Efi da a wɔbɛbra daa afɔrebɔ na wɔde akyiwade a ɔsɛe nam ne so bɛba abesi hɔ no bɛyɛ nnafua apem ahannu aduɔkron.
and from the time of the turning aside of the continuous [sacrifice], and to the giving out of the desolating abomination, [are] one thousand, two hundred, and ninety days.
12 Nhyira ne nea ɔtwɛn kosi nnafua apem ahaasa aduasa anum awiei no.
O the blessedness of him who is waiting earnestly, and comes to the one thousand, three hundred, thirty-five days.
13 “Wo Daniel de, tintim kodu awiei. Wobɛhome, na nna no awiei no, wobɛsɔre na woakogye wo kyɛfa a ɛwɔ agyapade no mu.”
And you, go on to the end, then you rest, and stand in your lot at the end of the days.”
