31 And [a]forces shall be mustered by him, (A)and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation. 32 Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall [b]corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits. 33 And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering. 34 Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join with them by [c]intrigue. 35 And some of those of understanding shall fall, (B)to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.

12 “At that time Michael shall stand up,
The great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people;

Even to that time.

Every one who is found (C)written in the book.
Daniel 12:5-12
New King James Version
5 Then I, Daniel, looked; and there stood two others, one on this riverbank and the other on that (A)riverbank. 6 And one said to the man clothed in (B)linen, who was above the waters of the river, (C)“How long shall the fulfillment of these wonders be?”
7 Then I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, when he (D)held up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and swore by Him (E)who lives forever, (F)that it shall be for a time, times, and half a time; (G)and when the power of (H)the holy people has been completely shattered, all these things shall be finished.
8 Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, “My lord, what shall be the end of these things?”
9 And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. 10 (I)Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, (J)but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but (K)the wise shall understand.
11 “And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days. 12 Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
