The Time of the End

¹ "At that time shall arise ^(a)Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And ^(b)there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, ^(c)everyone whose name shall be found written in the book. ² And many of those who ^(d)sleep in ^(e)the dust of the earth shall ^(f)awake, ^(g)some to everlasting life, and ^(h)some to shame and everlasting contempt. ^3 (i)And those who are wise ^(j)shall shine like the brightness of the sky above;^[a] and ^(k)those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. ⁴ But you, Daniel, ^(l)shut up the words and ^(m)seal the book, until ⁽ⁿ⁾the time of the end. ^(o)Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase."

⁵ Then I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others stood, one on ^(p)this bank of the stream and one on that bank of the stream. ⁶ And someone said to ^(q)the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream,^{[b] (r)}"How long shall it be till the end of these wonders?" ⁷ And I heard ^(s)the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream; ^(t)he raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven and ^(u)swore by him who lives forever that it would be for a ^(v)time, times, and half a time, and that when the shattering of ^(w)the power of ^(x)the holy people comes to an end all these things would be finished. ⁸ I heard, ^(y)but I did not understand. Then I said, "O my lord, what shall be the outcome of these things?" ⁹ He said, ^(z)"Go your way, Daniel, ^(aa)for the words are shut up and sealed until the time of the end. ^10 (ab)Many shall purify themselves and make themselves white and be refined, but ^(ac)the wicked shall act wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, ^(ad)but those who are wise shall understand. ¹¹ And from the time that ^(ae)the regular burnt offering is taken away and ^(af)the abomination that makes desolate is set up, there shall be 1,290 days. ^12 (ag)Blessed is he who waits and arrives at the 1,335 days. ^13 (ah)But go your way till the end. ^(ai)And you shall rest and shall stand in your allotted place at ^(aj)the end of the days."
