Daniel 12

Studie

   

1 And at that time shall Michael stand, the great prince who stands for the sons of thy people; and there shall be a time of adversity, which was not since there was a nation even·​·to that same time; and at that time thy people shall escape, every one who shall be·​·found written in the book.

2 And many of them sleeping in the ground of dust shall awake, these to eternal life, the rest* to reproach and eternal abhorrence.

3 And the intelligent shall shine as the shining of the expanse, and those who turn many to be·​·just, as the stars for eternity and forever.

4 But thou, O Daniel, block·​·off the words, and seal the book, even·​·to the time of the end; many shall run·​·around, and knowledge shall be multiplied.

5 And I, Daniel, saw, and, behold, there stood two others, one here on the lip of the river and one there on the lip of the river.

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

7 And I heard the man clothed with linen, who was above the waters of the river, and he lifted·​·up his right hand and his left hand to the heavens, and promised by Him who lives for eternity that it shall be for a season of seasons and a half; and when they have completed scattering the hand of the holy people, all these things shall be completed.

8 And I heard, but I understood not; and said I, O my Lord, what shall be the last of these things?

9 And He said, Go, Daniel; for the words are blocked·​·off and sealed until the time of the end.

10 Many shall be purified, and made·​·white, and examined; but the wicked shall act·​·wickedly, and all the wicked shall not understand; but the intelligent shall understand.

11 And from the time that the continual offering shall be removed, and to the giving of the detestable that makes·​·desolate, shall be a thousand two·​·hundred and ninety days.

12 Happy is he who tarries, and reaches to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

13 But go thou even to the end; and thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.

20 Nevertheless rejoice not in this, that the spirits are·​·subject to you, but rather rejoice that your names are written in the heavens.
