Kapitel 12 -

CHAP. XII.

1 Michael shall deliuer Israel from their troubles. 5 Daniel is informed of the times.

¹

¹ And at that time shall Michael stand vp, the great Prince which standeth for the children of thy people, and there shalbe a time of trouble, such as neuer was since there was a nation, euen to that same time: and at that time thy people shalbe deliuered, euery one that shalbe found written in the booke.

²

² And many of them that sleepe in the dust of the earth shall awake, ^*some to euerlasting life, and some to shame and euerlasting contempt. [ ^*Matt. 25, 45. ioh.5. 29. ]

³

³ And they that be || wise shall ^*shine as the brightnesse of the firmament, and they that turne many to righteousnesse, as the starres for euer and euer. [ || Or, teachers. , ^*Matth.13. 43.]

⁴

⁴ But thou, O Daniel, shut vp the wordes, and seale the booke euen to the time of the ende: many shall runne to and fro, and knowledge shall bee increased.

⁵

⁵ ¶ Then I Daniel looked, and behold, there stood other two, the one on this side of the banke of the riuer, and the other on that side of the ⁺banke of the riuer. [⁺Hebr. lip.]

⁶

⁶ And one said to the man clothed in ^*linnen, which was || vpon the waters of the riuer; How long shall it bee to the end of these wonders? [ *Dan.10.5. , || Or, from aboue.]

⁷

⁷ And I heard the man clothed in linnen, which was vpon the waters of the riuer, when he ^*held vp his right hand, and his left hand vnto heauen, and sware by him that liueth for euer, that it shalbe for a time, times, and || an halfe: and when hee shall haue accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall bee finished. [ ^*Reuel.10. 5. , || Or, part. ]

⁸

⁸ And I heard, but I vnderstood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shalbe the end of these things?

⁹

⁹ And he said, Goe thy way, Daniel: for the wordes are closed vp and sealed till the time of the end.

¹⁰

¹⁰ Many shalbe purified, and made white and tried: but the wicked shall doe wickedly: and none of the wicked shall vnderstand, but the wise shall vnderstand.

¹¹

¹¹And from the time that the dayly sacrifice shalbe taken away, and ⁺the abomination || that maketh desolate set vp, there shalbe a thousand two hundred and ninetie dayes. [⁺Hebr. to set vp the abomination, &c. , || Or, astonisheth.]

¹²

¹² Blessed is he that waiteth, and commeth to the thousand, three hundred and fiue and thirtie dayes.

¹³

¹³ But goe thou thy way till the end be: || for thou shalt rest, and stand in the lot at the end of the dayes. [ || Or, and thou, &c. ]
