“Now at that time ^aMichael, the great prince who stands guard over the sons of your people, will arise. And there will be a ^btime of distress ^csuch as never occurred since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the ^dbook, will be rescued. 2 And ^amany of those who sleep in the dust of the ground will awake, ^bthese to everlasting life, but the others to disgrace and everlasting ¹contempt. 3 And ¹those who have ^ainsight will ^bshine like the glow of the ²expanse of heaven, and those who ^3clead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. 4 But as for you, Daniel, ^akeep these words secret and ^bseal up the book until the ^cend of time; ^dmany will roam about, and knowledge will increase.”

5 Then I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others were standing, one on this bank of the stream and the other on that bank of the stream. 6 And ^asomeone said to the man ^bdressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, “^cHow long will it be until the end of these wonders?” 7 And I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, ¹as he ^araised his right hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by ^bHim who lives forever that it would be for a ^2ctime, ³times, and half a ⁴time; and as soon as ⁵they finish ^dsmashing the ⁶power of the holy people, all these events will be completed. 8 But as for me, I heard but did not understand; so I said, “My lord, what will be the ¹outcome of these events?” 9 And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words will be kept secret and ^asealed up until the end time. 10 ^aMany will be purged, ¹cleansed, and refined, but the ^bwicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but ²those who ^chave insight will understand. 11 And from the time that the regular sacrifice is abolished and the ^aabomination ¹of desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. 12 ^aBlessed is the one who is patient and attains to the ^b1,335 days! 13 But as for you, go your way to the ¹end; then you will ^arest and ²rise for your ^ballotted portion at the end of the ³age.”

5 Then I, Daniel, looked and behold, two others were standing, one on this bank of the river and the other on that bank of the river. 6 And ^aone said to the man ^bdressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, “^cHow long will it be until the end of these wonders?” 7 I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, ¹as he ^araised his right hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by ^bHim who lives forever that it would be for a ^2ctime, ³times, and half a ⁴time; and as soon as ⁵they finish ^dshattering the ⁶power of the holy people, all these events will be completed. 8 As for me, I heard but could not understand; so I said, “My lord, what will be the ¹outcome of these events?” 9 He said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words are concealed and ^asealed up until the end time. 10 ^aMany will be purged, ¹purified and refined, but the ^bwicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but ²those who ^chave insight will understand. 11 From the time that the regular sacrifice is abolished and the ^1aabomination of desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. 12 How ^ablessed is he who keeps waiting and attains to the ^b1,335 days! 13 But as for you, go your way to the ¹end; then you will enter into ^arest and rise again for your ^ballotted portion at the end of the ²age.”
