Daniel 12

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 “But at that time Michael will rise up, the great leader, who stands up for the sons of your people. And a time will come, such as has not been from the time that nations began, even until that time. And, at that time, your people will be saved, all who will be found written in the book.	1 "At that time there shall arise Michael, the great prince, guardian of your people; It shall be a time unsurpassed in distress since nations began until that time. At that time your people shall escape, everyone who is found written in the book.
2 And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth will awaken: some to everlasting life, and others to a reproach that they will always see.	2 Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake; some shall live forever, others shall be an everlasting horror and disgrace.
3 But those who have taught will shine like the brightness of the firmament, and those who instruct many towards justice, like the stars for unending eternity.	3 But the wise shall shine brightly like the splendor of the firmament, And those who lead the many to justice shall be like the stars forever.
4 But you, Daniel, close the message and seal the book, until the established time. Many will pass through, and knowledge will be increased.”	4 "As for you, Daniel, keep secret the message and seal the book until the end time; many shall fall away and evil shall increase."
5 And I, Daniel, looked, and behold, similarly two others stood up, one over here, on the bank of the river, and the other over there, on the other bank of the river.	5 I, Daniel, looked and saw two others, one standing on either bank of the river.
6 And I said to the man, who was clothed in linen, who stood over the waters of the river, “How long will it be until the end of these wonders?”	6 One of them said to the man clothed in linen, who was upstream, "How long shall it be to the end of these appalling things?"
7 And I heard the man, who was clothed in linen, who stood over the waters of the river, when he had lifted his right hand and his left hand up to heaven, and had sworn by He who lives forever, that it would be for a time, and times, and half a time. And when the dispersion of the hand of the holy people is completed, all these things will be completed.	7 The man clothed in linen, who was upstream, lifted his right and left hands to heaven; and I heard him swear by him who lives forever that it should be for a year, two years, a half-year; and that, when the power of the destroyer of the holy people was brought to an end, all these things should end.
8 And I heard and did not understand. And I said, “My lord, what will be after these things?”	8 I heard, but I did not understand; so I asked, "My lord, what follows this?"
9 And he said, “Go, Daniel, for the words are closed and sealed until the predetermined time.	9 "Go, Daniel," he said, "because the words are to be kept secret and sealed until the end time.
10 Many will be chosen and purified, and, as if by fire, they will be tested, and the impious will act impiously, and none of the impious will understand, yet the teachers will understand.	10 Many shall be refined, purified, and tested, but the wicked shall prove wicked; none of them shall have understanding, but the wise shall have it.
11 And from the time when the continual sacrifice will be taken away and the abomination of desolation will be set up, there will be one thousand two hundred ninety days.	11 From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the horrible abomination is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he who waits and reaches until one thousand three hundred thirty-five days.	12 Blessed is the man who has patience and perseveres until the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
13 But you, go, until the predetermined time, and you will rest and will stand in your allotted place at the end of days.	13 Go, take your rest, you shall rise for your reward at the end of days."
