1"'At that time, Michael will arise, the great prince who will stand up on behalf of your people, and a time of trouble will come like there has never been since nations began until that time. Also at that time, your people will be delivered—everyone who will have been written in the book. 1"At that time Michael, the great prince who watches over your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress unlike any other from the nation's beginning up to that time. But at that time your own people, all those whose names are found written in the book, will escape.
2Many of those who are sleeping in the dust of the earth will awaken—some to life everlasting, and some to disgrace and everlasting contempt. 2Many of those who sleep in the dusty ground will awake--some to everlasting life, and others to shame and everlasting abhorrence.
3Those who manifest wisdom will shine like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who turn many to righteousness will shine like the stars for ever and ever. 3But the wise will shine like the brightness of the heavenly expanse. And those bringing many to righteousness will be like the stars forever and ever.
4Now as for you, Daniel, roll up your scroll and seal your words until the time of the end. Many will rush around, while knowledge increases.'"4"But you, Daniel, close up these words and seal the book until the time of the end. Many will dash about, and knowledge will increase."
5"Then while I, Daniel, continued watching, suddenly two others stood there, one on this side of the river bank and one on the other side. 5I, Daniel, watched as two others stood there, one on each side of the river.
6One asked the man dressed in linen clothes, who was standing above the waters of the river, 'How long until the fulfillment of the wonders?'6One said to the man clothed in linen who was above the waters of the river, "When will the end of these wondrous events occur?"
7"I heard the man dressed in linen clothes, who was standing above the waters of the river as he lifted his right and left hands to heaven and swore by the one who lives forever that it would be for a time, times, and a half. When the shattering of the power of the holy people has occurred, all these things will conclude."7Then I heard the man clothed in linen who was over the waters of the river as he raised both his right and left hands to the sky and made an oath by the one who lives forever: "It is for a time, times, and half a time. Then, when the power of the one who shatters the holy people has been exhausted, all these things will be finished."
8"I heard, but I didn't understand. So I asked, 'Sir, what happens next?'8I heard, but I did not understand. So I said, "Sir, what will happen after these things?"
9"He answered, 'Go on your way, Daniel, because these matters are wrapped up and sealed until the time of the end. 9He said, "Go, Daniel. For these matters are closed and sealed until the time of the end.
10Many will be purified, cleansed, and refined, though the wicked will continue to act wickedly, and none of the wicked will understand. Nevertheless, the insightful will understand. 10Many will be purified, made clean, and refined, but the wicked will go on being wicked. None of the wicked will understand, though the wise will understand.
11There will be 1,290 days from the time the regular burnt offering is rescinded and the destructive desolation established. 11From the time that the daily sacrifice is removed and the abomination that causes desolation is set in place, there are 1,290 days.
12Blessed is the one who perseveres and attains to the 1,335 days. 12Blessed is the one who waits and attains to the 1,335 days.
13Now as for you, keep on going until the end—you'll rest and then rise to receive your reward at the end of the age.'" 13But you should go your way until the end. You will rest and then at the end of the days you will arise to receive what you have been allotted."
