Prophecy of the End Time
“At that time Michael shall stand up,
The great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people;
aAnd there shall be a time of trouble,
Such as never was since there was a nation,
Even to that time.
And at that time your people bshall be delivered,
Every one who is found cwritten in the book.
2 And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake,
aSome to everlasting life,
Some to shame band everlasting contempt.
3 Those who are wise shall ashine
Like the brightness of the firmament,
bAnd those who turn many to righteousness
cLike the stars forever and ever.
4 “But you, Daniel, ashut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall brun to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.”
5 Then I, Daniel, looked; and there stood two others, one on this riverbank and the other on that ariverbank. 6 And one said to the man clothed in alinen, who was above the waters of the river, b“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 aheld up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and swore by Him bwho lives forever, cthat it shall be for a time, times, and half a time; dand when the power of ethe 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 aMany shall be purified, made white, and refined, bbut the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but cthe 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.
13 “But you, go your way till the end; afor you shall rest, band will arise to your inheritance at the end of the days.” The Holy Bible, New King James Version, Copyright © 1982 Thomas Nelson.
