4 B ut you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run back and forth, and knowledge shall be increased.”

5 T hen I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others stood, one on the river bank on this side, and the other on the river bank on that side.

Then I, Daniel, looked; and there stood two others, one on this riverbank and the other on that riverbank.

6 O ne said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?

And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, “How long shall the fulfillment of these wonders be? ”

7 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 to heaven, and swore by him who lives forever that it shall be for a time, times, and a half; and when they have finished breaking in pieces the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

Then 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 to heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever, that it shall be for a time, times, and half a time; and when the power of the holy people has been completely shattered, all these things shall be finished.

8 I heard, but I didn’t understand: then I said, my lord, what shall be the issue of these things?

Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, “My lord, what shall be the end of these things? ”

9 H e said, Go your way, Daniel; for the words are shut up and sealed until the time of the end.

And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

10 M any shall purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand; but those who are wise shall understand.

Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand.

11 F rom the time that the continual burnt offering shall be taken away, and the abomination that makes desolate set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred ninety days.

“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 B lessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred thirty-five days.

Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.

13 B ut go you your way until the end; for you shall rest, and shall stand in your lot, at the end of the days.

“But you, go your way till the end; for you shall rest, and will arise to your inheritance at the end of the days.”
