Daniel 12

1 And at that time Michael the great prince shall stand up, that stands over the children of your people: and there shall be a time of tribulation, such tribulation as has not been from the time that there was a nation on the earth until that time: at that time your people shall be delivered, [even] every one that is written in the book.

And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproach and everlasting shame.

And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

3 And the wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and [some] of the many righteous as the stars for ever and ever.

And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

4 And you, Daniel, close the words, and seal the book to the time of the end; until many are taught, and knowledge is increased.

But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

5 And I Daniel saw, and, behold, two others stood, on one side of the bank of the river, and the other on the other side of the bank of the river.

Then I Daniel looked, and, behold, there stood other two, the one on the brink of the river on this side, and the other on the brink of the river on that side.

6 And [one] said to the man clothed in linen, who was over the water of the river, When [will be] the end of the wonders which you has mentioned?

And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was above the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?

7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, who was over the water of the river, and he lifted up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and sware by him that lives for ever, that [it should be] for a time of times and half a time: when the dispersion is ended they shall know all these things.

And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was above the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth fear ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when they have made an end of breaking in pieces the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

8 And I heard, but I understood not: and I said, O Lord, what [will be] the end of these things?

And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my lord, what shall be the issue of these things?

9 And he said, Go, Daniel: for the words are closed and sealed up to the time of the end.

And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are shut up and sealed till the time of the end.

10 Many must be tested, and thoroughly whitened, and tried with fire, and sanctified; but the transgressors shall transgress: and none of the transgressors shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

Many shall purify themselves; and make themselves white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand: but they that be wise shall understand.

11 And from the time of the removal of the perpetual sacrifice, when the abomination of desolation shall be set up, [there shall be] a thousand two hundred and ninety days.

And from the time that the continual [burnt offering] shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.

12 Blessed is he that waits, and comes to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.

Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

13 But go you, and rest; for [there are] yet days and seasons to the fulfillment of the end; and you shall stand in your lot at the end of the days.

But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and shalt stand in thy lot, at the end of the days.
