Danihelis Prophetæ 12

1 In tempore autem illo consurget Michael 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.

"At that time shall Michael arise, the great prince who watches over the children of your people. And there shall be a time of distress unparalleled since the beginning of the nation until that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone who shall be 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.

Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

3 Qui autem docti fuerint, fulgebunt quasi splendor firmamenti: et qui ad iustitiam erudiunt multos, quasi stellæ in perpetuas æternitates.

And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever.

4 Tu autem Daniel claude sermones, et signa librum usque ad tempus statutum: plurimi pertransibunt, et multiplex erit scientia.

But you, Daniel, close up these words, and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall roam here and there, and knowledge shall increase."

5 Et vidi ego Daniel, et ecce quasi duo alii stabant: unus hinc super ripam fluminis, et alius inde ex altera ripa fluminis.

Then I, Daniel, looked, and look, two others stood, one on this bank of the river, and one on the other bank of the river.

6 Et dixi viro, qui erat indutus lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis: Usquequo finis horum mirabilium?

And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, "How long shall it be till these wonders take place?"

7 Et audivi virum, qui indutus erat lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis, cum elevasset dexteram et sinistram suam in cælum, et iurasset per viventem in æternum, quia in tempus, et tempora, et dimidium temporis. Et cum completa fuerit dispersio manus populi sancti, complebuntur universa hæc.

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 shall be for a time, times, and a 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 Et ego audivi, et non intellexi. Et dixi: Domine mi, quid erit post hæc?

And I heard, but I did not understand. Then I said, "My lord, what shall be the outcome of these things?"

9 Et ait: Vade Daniel, quia clausi sunt, signatique sermones usque ad præfinitum tempus.

And he said, "Go your way, Daniel, for the words are shut up and sealed until 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.

Many shall be purified, cleansed and refined; but the wicked shall act wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, but those who are wise shall understand.

11 Et a tempore cum ablatum fuerit iuge sacrificium, et posita fuerit abominatio in desolationem, dies mille ducenti nonaginta.

From the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred ninety days.

12 Beatus, qui expectat, et pervenit usque ad dies mille trecentos trigintaquinque.

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

13 Tu autem vade ad præfinitum: et requiesces, et stabis in sorte tua in finem dierum.

But go your way until the end. For you shall rest, and shall rise to receive your reward at the end of the days.
