Daniel 12
Orthodox Jewish Bible
12 And at that time shall Micha’el stand, the Sar HaGadol who standeth over the banim of thy people, and there shall be an et tzarah (time of tribulation), such as has not been from the existence of a nation to that time; and in that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the Sefer.
2 And rabbim of them that sleep in the admat aphar (dust of the ground) shall awake, some to Chayyei Olam (Everlasting Life), and some to reproaches (shames) and Dera’on Olam (Everlasting Contempt, Abhorrence, Aversion, i.e., Everlasting Gehinnom.[T.N. Onesh Olam is here made more fearsome in light of the prevalent neglect of Scripture in favor of non-Biblical studies]).
3 And they that are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to tzedakah (righteousness) as the kokhavim (stars) leolam v’ed (forever and ever).
4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the devarim (words), and seal the sefer, until the Et Ketz (Time of the End): rabbim shall run to and fro, that da’as (knowledge) may be increased.
5 Then I Daniel looked, and, hinei, two others were standing, the one on this side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river.
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 Ketz 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 Shomayim, and swore, By the One who liveth haolam (forever), it shall be for a time, times, and a half a time; and when there is an end of breaking in pieces the yad Am Kodesh (power of the Holy People), all these things shall come to an end.
8 And I heard, but I understood not. Then said I, Adoni, what shall be the end of these things?
9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel, for the devarim are closed up and sealed till the Et Ketz (Time of the End).
10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and refined; but the reshaim (wicked) shall do wickedly; and none of the resha’im shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
11 And from the time that HaTamid (the Daily Sacrifice) shall be taken away, and the Shikkutz Shomem (Abomination Causing Desolation) set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety yamim.
12 Ashrei (blessed) is he who waiteth, and attains to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty yamim.
13 But thou, go till HaKetz; for thou shalt rest, and shall arise to thy allotted inheritance at the Ketz HaYamin (End of Days).
Daniel 12
Complete Jewish Bible
12 “When that time comes, Mikha’el, the great prince who champions your people, will stand up; and there will be a time of distress unparalleled between the time they became a nation and that moment. At that time, your people will be delivered, everyone whose name is found written in the book. 2 Many of those sleeping in the dust of the earth will awaken, some to everlasting life and some to everlasting shame and abhorrence. 3 But those who can discern will shine like the brightness of heaven’s dome, and those who turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever.
4 “But you, Dani’el, keep these words secret, and seal up the book until the time of the end. Many will rush here and there as knowledge increases.”
5 Then I, Dani’el, looked; and I saw in front of me two others, one on this bank of the river and the other on its other bank. 6 One of them asked the man dressed in linen who was above the water of the river, “How long will these wonders last?” 7 The man dressed in linen who was above the water of the river raised his right and left hands toward heaven and swore by him who lives forever that it would be for a time, times and a half, and that it will be when the the power of the holy people is no longer being shattered that all these things will end.
8 I heard this, but I couldn’t understand what it meant; so I asked, “Lord, what will be the outcome of all this?” 9 But he said, “Go your way, Dani’el; for these words are to remain secret and sealed until the time of the end. 10 Many will purify, cleanse and refine themselves; but the wicked will keep on acting wickedly, and none of the wicked will understand. But those with discernment will understand. 11 From the time the regular burnt offering is taken away and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. 12 How blessed will be anyone who waits and arrives at the 1,335 days. 13 But you, go your way until the end comes. Then you will rest and rise for your reward, at the end of days.”
Daniele 12
La Nuova Diodati
12 «In quel tempo sorgerà Mikael, il gran principe, il difensore dei figli del tuo popolo; e ci sarà un tempo di angoscia, come non c'era mai stato da quando esistono le nazioni fino a quel tempo. In quel tempo il tuo popolo sarà salvato, tutti quelli che saranno trovati scritti nel libro
2 Molti di coloro che dormono nella polvere della terra si risveglieranno, alcuni per vita eterna, altri per vergogna e infamia eterna.
3 Quelli che hanno sapienza risplenderanno come lo splendore del firmamento e quelli che avranno condotti molti alla giustizia, risplenderanno come le stelle per sempre.
4 Ma tu, Daniele, tieni nascoste queste parole e sigilla il libro fino al tempo della fine, molti andranno avanti e indietro e la conoscenza aumenterà».
5 Poi io, Daniele, guardai, ed ecco altri due in piedi, uno su questa sponda del fiume, e l'altro sull'altra sponda del fiume.
6 Uno di essi disse all'uomo vestito di lino, che stava sopra le acque del fiume: «Quando sarà la fine di queste meraviglie?».
7 Io udii allora l'uomo vestito di lino, che stava sopra le acque del fiume, il quale, alzata la mano destra e la mano sinistra al cielo giurò per colui che vive in eterno che ciò sarà per un tempo, per dei tempi e per la metà di un tempo; quando la forza del popolo santo sarà interamente infranta, tutte queste cose si compiranno.
8 Io udii, ma non compresi, perciò chiesi: «Mio signore, quale sarà la fine di queste cose?».
9 Egli rispose: «Va Daniele, perché queste parole sono nascoste e sigillate fino al tempo della fine.
10 Molti saranno purificati, imbiancati e affinati; ma gli empi agiranno empiamente e nessuno degli empi capirà, ma capiranno i savi.
11 Ora, dal tempo in cui sarà abolito il sacrifico continuo e sarà eretta l'abominazione che causa la desolazione, vi saranno milleduecentonovanta giorni.
12 Beato chi aspetta e giunge a milletrecentotrentacinque giorni.
13 Ma tu va' pure alla tua fine; ti riposerai e poi ti rialzerai per ricevere la tua parte di eredità alla fine dei giorni».
