Daniel 12:5-13

New English Translation

⁵ I, Daniel, watched as two others stood there, one on each side of the river.^{[a] 6} One said to the man clothed in linen who was above the waters of the river, “When will the end of these wondrous events occur?” ⁷ Then I heard the man clothed in linen who was over the waters of the river as he raised both his right and left hands to the sky^[b] and made an oath by the one who lives forever: “It is for a time, times, and half a time. Then, when the power of the one who shatters^[c] the holy people has been exhausted, all these things will be finished.”

⁸ I heard, but I did not understand. So I said, “Sir,^[d] what will happen after these things?” ⁹ He said, “Go, Daniel. For these matters are closed and sealed until the time of the end. ¹⁰ Many will be purified, made clean, and refined, but the wicked will go on being wicked. None of the wicked will understand, though the wise will understand. ¹¹ From the time that the daily sacrifice is removed and the abomination that causes desolation is set in place,^[e] there are 1,290 days. ¹² Blessed is the one who waits and attains to the 1,335 days. ¹³ But you should go your way^[f] until the end.^[g] You will rest and then at the end of the days you will arise to receive^[h] what you have been allotted.”^[i]
