1 Nesse tempo, se levantará Miguel, o grande príncipe, o defensor dos filhos do teu povo, e haverá tempo de angústia, qual nunca houve, desde que houve nação até àquele tempo; mas, naquele tempo, será salvo o teu povo, todo aquele que for achado inscrito no livro. 2 Muitos dos que dormem no pó da terra ressuscitarão, uns para a vida eterna, e outros para vergonha e horror eterno. 3 Os que forem sábios, pois, resplandecerão como o fulgor do firmamento; e os que a muitos conduzirem à justiça, como as estrelas, sempre e eternamente. 4 Tu, porém, Daniel, encerra as palavras e sela o livro, até ao tempo do fim; muitos o esquadrinharão, e o saber se multiplicará.

5 Então, eu, Daniel, olhei, e eis que estavam em pé outros dois, um, de um lado do rio, o outro, do outro lado. 6 Um deles disse ao homem vestido de linho, que estava sobre as águas do rio: Quando se cumprirão estas maravilhas? 7 Ouvi o homem vestido de linho, que estava sobre as águas do rio, quando levantou a mão direita e a esquerda ao céu e jurou, por aquele que vive eternamente, que isso seria depois de um tempo, dois tempos e metade de um tempo. E, quando se acabar a destruição do poder do povo santo, estas coisas todas se cumprirão. 8 Eu ouvi, porém não entendi; então, eu disse: meu senhor, qual será o fim destas coisas? 9 Ele respondeu: Vai, Daniel, porque estas palavras estão encerradas e seladas até ao tempo do fim. 10 Muitos serão purificados, embranquecidos e provados; mas os perversos procederão perversamente, e nenhum deles entenderá, mas os sábios entenderão. 11 Depois do tempo em que o sacrifício diário for tirado, e posta a abominação desoladora, haverá ainda mil duzentos e noventa dias. 12 Bem-aventurado o que espera e chega até mil trezentos e trinta e cinco dias. 13 Tu, porém, segue o teu caminho até ao fim; pois descansarás e, ao fim dos dias, te levantarás para receber a tua herança.

1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince who standeth for the children of thy people; and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. 3 And they that are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. 4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

5 Then I, Daniel, looked, and, behold, there stood other two, the one on the brink of the river on this side, and the other on the brink of the river on that side. 6 And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? 7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and a half; and when they have made an end of breaking in pieces the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished. 8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my lord, what shall be the issue of these things? 9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel; for the words are shut up and sealed till the time of the end. 10 Many shall purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand; but they that are wise shall understand. 11 And from the time that the continual burnt-offering shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days. 12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. 13 But go thou thy way till the end be; for thou shalt rest, and shalt stand in thy lot, at the end of the days.

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.

2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.

3 Those 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.

4 But 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."

5 Then I, Daniel, looked, and there before me stood two others, one on this bank of the river and one on the opposite bank.

6 One 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?"

7 The 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."

8 I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, "My lord, what will the outcome of all this be?"

9 He replied, "Go your way, Daniel, because the words are rolled up and sealed until the time of the end.

10 Many 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.

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.

12 Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of 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."
