New International VersionInternational Standard Version
1"At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people--everyone whose name is found written in the book--will be delivered.1"'At that time, Michael will arise, the great prince who will stand up on behalf of your people, and a time of trouble will come like there has never been since nations began until that time. Also at that time, your people will be delivered—everyone who will have been written in the book.
2Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.2Many of those who are sleeping in the dust of the earth will awaken—some to life everlasting, and some to disgrace and everlasting contempt.
3Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.3Those who manifest wisdom will shine like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who turn many to righteousness will shine like the stars for ever and ever.
4But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge."4Now as for you, Daniel, roll up your scroll and seal your words until the time of the end. Many will rush around, while knowledge increases.'"
5Then I, Daniel, looked, and there before me stood two others, one on this bank of the river and one on the opposite bank.5"Then while I, Daniel, continued watching, suddenly two others stood there, one on this side of the river bank and one on the other side.
6One of them said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, "How long will it be before these astonishing things are fulfilled?"6One asked the man dressed in linen clothes, who was standing above the waters of the river, 'How long until the fulfillment of the wonders?'
7The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, lifted his right hand and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by him who lives forever, saying, "It will be for a time, times and half a time. When the power of the holy people has been finally broken, all these things will be completed."7"I heard the man dressed in linen clothes, who was standing above the waters of the river as he lifted his right and left hands to heaven and swore by the one who lives forever that it would be for a time, times, and a half. When the shattering of the power of the holy people has occurred, all these things will conclude."
8I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, "My lord, what will the outcome of all this be?"8"I heard, but I didn't understand. So I asked, 'Sir, what happens next?'
9He replied, "Go your way, Daniel, because the words are rolled up and sealed until the time of the end.9"He answered, 'Go on your way, Daniel, because these matters are wrapped up and sealed until the time of the end.
10Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.10Many will be purified, cleansed, and refined, though the wicked will continue to act wickedly, and none of the wicked will understand. Nevertheless, the insightful will understand.
11"From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days.11There will be 1,290 days from the time the regular burnt offering is rescinded and the destructive desolation established.
12Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.12Blessed is the one who perseveres and attains to the 1,335 days.
13"As for you, go your way till the end. You will rest, and then at the end of the days you will rise to receive your allotted inheritance."13Now as for you, keep on going until the end—you'll rest and then rise to receive your reward at the end of the age.'"
