And at that time Michael will take up his place, the great angel, who is the supporter of the children of your people: and there will be a time of trouble, such as there never was from the time there was a nation even till that same time: and at that time your people will be kept safe, everyone who is recorded in the book. | And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince who 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. |
And a number of those who are sleeping in the dust of the earth will come out of their sleep, some to eternal life and some to eternal 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. |
And those who are wise will be shining like the light of the outstretched sky; and those by whom numbers have been turned to righteousness will be like the stars for ever and ever. | And they that are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. |
But as for you, O Daniel, let the words be kept secret and the book rolled up and kept shut till the time of the end: numbers will be going out of the way and troubles will be 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. |
Then I, Daniel, looking, saw two others, one at the edge of the river on this side and one at the edge of the river on that side. | 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. |
And I said to the man clothed in linen, who was over the waters of the river, How long will it be to the end of these wonders? | And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? |
Then in my hearing the man clothed in linen, who was over the river, lifting up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, took an oath by him who is living for ever that it would be a time, times, and a half; and when the power of the crusher of the holy people comes to an end, all these things will be ended. | And 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 unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever 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. |
And the words came to my ears, but the sense of them was not clear to me: then I said, O my lord, what is the sense of these things? | And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my lord, what shall be the issue of these things? |
And he said, Go on your way, Daniel: for the words are secret and shut up till 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. |
Till a number are tested and make themselves clean; and the evil-doers will do evil; for not one of the evil-doers will have knowledge; but all will be made clear to those who are wise. | 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 are wise shall understand. |
And from the time when the regular burned offering is taken away, and an unclean thing causing fear is put up, there will 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 and two hundred and ninety days. |
A blessing will be on the man who goes on waiting, 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. |
But you, go on your way and take your rest: for you will be in your place 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. |
