El tiempo del fin

12 En aquel tiempo se levantará Miguel, el gran príncipe(A) que vela sobre[a] los hijos de tu pueblo. Será un tiempo de angustia(B) cual nunca hubo desde que existen las naciones hasta entonces; y en ese tiempo tu pueblo será librado(C), todos los que se encuentren inscritos en el libro(D). Y muchos de los que duermen en el polvo de la tierra despertarán(E), unos para la vida eterna, y otros para la ignominia, para el desprecio eterno(F). Los entendidos[b] brillarán(G) como el resplandor del firmamento, y los que guiaron a muchos(H) a la justicia, como las estrellas, por siempre jamás. Pero tú, Daniel, guarda en secreto estas palabras y sella el libro hasta el tiempo del fin(I). Muchos correrán de aquí para allá, y el conocimiento aumentará(J).

Entonces yo, Daniel, miré, y he aquí otros dos estaban de pie, uno a este lado del río, y el otro al otro lado del río. Y uno de ellos dijo al hombre vestido de lino(K) que estaba sobre las aguas del río(L): ¿Para[c] cuándo será el fin de estas maravillas(M)? Y oí al hombre vestido de lino, que estaba sobre las aguas del río, que levantando su mano derecha y su mano izquierda al cielo, juró por aquel que vive para siempre(N), que será por un tiempo[d], tiempos[e] y la mitad de un tiempo[f](O); y cuando se termine la destrucción del poder[g] del pueblo santo, se cumplirán todas estas cosas(P). Yo oí, pero no pude entender. Entonces dije: Señor mío, ¿cuál será el resultado[h] de estas cosas? Y él respondió: Anda, Daniel, porque estas palabras están cerradas y selladas hasta el tiempo del fin(Q). 10 Muchos serán purificados, emblanquecidos y refinados(R); los impíos procederán impíamente(S), y ninguno de los impíos comprenderá, pero los entendidos[i] comprenderán(T). 11 Y desde el tiempo en que el sacrificio perpetuo sea abolido y puesta la abominación de la desolación[j](U), habrá mil doscientos noventa días. 12 Bienaventurado el que espere(V) y llegue a mil trescientos treinta y cinco días(W). 13 Mas tú, sigue hasta el fin[k]; descansarás(X) y te levantarás para recibir tu heredad[l](Y) al fin de los días.

The Time of the Judgment and the Resurrection of Two Groups

12 “Now at that time, Michael, the great prince, will arise, the protector[a] over the sons of your people, and it will be a time of distress that has not been since your people have been[b] a nation until that time. And at that time your people will escape, everyone who is found[c] written in the scroll.[d] And many from those sleeping in the dusty ground[e] will awake, some to everlasting life[f] and some to disgrace and everlasting contempt.[g] But the ones having insight will shine like the brightness of the expanse, and the ones providing justice for the many[h] will be like the stars forever and ever.[i] But you, Daniel, keep the words secret and seal the scroll[j] until the time of the end; many will run back and forth and knowledge will increase.”

Then I looked, I myself, Daniel, and look, there were two others standing: one on this bank of the stream and one on the other.[k] Then he said to the man who was clothed in linen who was above[l] the water of the stream,[m]How long until[n] the end of the wonders?” And I heard the man who was clothed in linen who was above[o] the water of the stream,[p] and he raised his right hand and his left hand to heaven and he swore by the one who lives forever[q] that an appointed time, appointed times, and half an appointed time would pass when the shattering of the power of the holy people[r] would be completed;[s] then all these things will be accomplished.

Daniel Seeks Additional Insights

Now I myself heard, but I did not understand, and I said, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these things?” And he said, “Go, Daniel, for the words are secret and are sealed up until the time of the end. 10 Many will be purified and will be cleansed and will be refined, but the wicked will act wickedly and none of the wicked will understand,[t] but those who have insight[u] will understand. 11 And from the time the regular burnt offering is removed and the abomination that causes desolation is set up[v] there will be one thousand two hundred and ninety days. 12 Happy is the one who is persevering, and attains to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days. 13 But you, go on to the end and rest, and you will arise for your allotted inheritance at the end of the days.”

The End Times

12 “At that time Michael,(A) the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress(B) 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(C)—will be delivered.(D) Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake:(E) some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.(F) Those who are wise[a](G) will shine(H) like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness,(I) like the stars for ever and ever.(J) But you, Daniel, roll up and seal(K) the words of the scroll until the time of the end.(L) Many will go here and there(M) to increase knowledge.”

Then I, Daniel, looked, and there before me stood two others, one on this bank of the river and one on the opposite bank.(N) One of them said to the man clothed in linen,(O) who was above the waters of the river, “How long will it be before these astonishing things are fulfilled?”(P)

The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, lifted his right hand(Q) and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by him who lives forever,(R) saying, “It will be for a time, times and half a time.[b](S) When the power of the holy people(T) has been finally broken, all these things will be completed.(U)

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

He replied, “Go your way, Daniel, because the words are rolled up and sealed(V) until the time of the end.(W) 10 Many will be purified, made spotless and refined,(X) but the wicked will continue to be wicked.(Y) None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.(Z)

11 “From the time that the daily sacrifice(AA) is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation(AB) is set up, there will be 1,290 days.(AC) 12 Blessed is the one who waits(AD) for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.(AE)

13 “As for you, go your way till the end.(AF) You will rest,(AG) and then at the end of the days you will rise to receive your allotted inheritance.(AH)

I tempi della fine

12 (A)«“In quel tempo sorgerà Michele, il grande capo, il difensore dei figli del tuo popolo; vi sarà un tempo di angoscia, come non ce ne fu mai da quando sorsero le nazioni fino a quel tempo; e in quel tempo il tuo popolo sarà salvato; cioè, tutti quelli che saranno trovati iscritti nel libro. Molti di quelli che dormono nella polvere della terra si risveglieranno, gli uni per la vita eterna, gli altri per la vergogna e per un’eterna infamia. I saggi risplenderanno come lo splendore del firmamento, e quelli che avranno insegnato a molti la giustizia risplenderanno come le stelle in eterno.

Tu, Daniele, tieni nascoste queste parole e sigilla il libro sino al tempo della fine. Molti lo studieranno con cura e la conoscenza aumenterà”.

(B)«Poi io, Daniele, guardai, ed ecco altri due uomini in piedi: l’uno su questa sponda del fiume e l’altro sulla sponda opposta. Uno di essi disse all’uomo vestito di lino che stava sulle acque del fiume: “Quando sarà la fine di queste cose straordinarie?” Udii l’uomo vestito di lino, che stava sopra le acque del fiume. Egli alzò la mano destra e la mano sinistra al cielo e giurò per colui che vive in eterno, dicendo: “Questo durerà un tempo, dei tempi e la metà d’un tempo; e quando la forza del popolo santo sarà interamente spezzata, allora tutte queste cose si compiranno”. Io udii, ma non compresi e dissi: “Mio signore, quale sarà la fine di queste cose?” Egli rispose: “Va’ Daniele; perché queste parole sono nascoste e sigillate sino al tempo della fine. 10 Molti saranno purificati, imbiancati, affinati; ma gli empi agiranno empiamente e nessuno degli empi capirà, ma capiranno i saggi. 11 Dal momento in cui sarà abolito il sacrificio quotidiano e sarà rizzata l’abominazione della desolazione, passeranno milleduecentonovanta giorni. 12 Beato chi aspetta e giunge a milletrecentotrentacinque giorni! 13 Tu avviati verso la fine; tu ti riposerai e poi ti rialzerai per ricevere la tua parte di eredità alla fine dei tempi”».
