1 At that time
Michaelthe great prince
who stands watch over your people will rise up.
There will be a time of distress
such as never has occurred
since nations came into being until that time.
But at that time all your people
who are found written in the bookwill escape.
2 Many of those who sleep in the dust
of the earth will awake,
some to eternal life,
and some to shame and eternal contempt.
3 Those who are wise will shine
like the bright expanse of the heavens,
and those who lead many to righteousness,
like the stars forever and ever.
4 “But you, Daniel, keep these words secretand seal the bookuntil the time of the end.Many will roam about,and knowledge will increase.”
5 Then I, Daniel, looked, and two others were standing there, one on this bank of the river and one on the other.
6 One of them said to the man dressed in linen,who was above the waters of the river,“How long until the endof these extraordinary things? ”
7 Then I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river. He raised both his handstoward heaven and swore by Him who lives eternallythat it would be for a time, times, and half a time.When the power of the holy people is shattered, all these things will be completed.
8 I heard but did not understand. So I asked, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these things? ”
9 He said, “Go on your way, Daniel, for the words are secretand sealed until the time of the end.
10 Many will be purified,cleansed, and refined,but the wicked will act wickedly;none of the wicked will understand, but the wise will understand.
11 From the time the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination of desolationis set up,there will be 1,290 days.
12 The one who waitsfor and reaches 1,335 days is blessed.
13 But as for you, go on your way to the end;you will rest, then riseto your destiny at the end of the days.”
