Some to shame (B)and everlasting [a]contempt.
Those who are wise shall (C)shine
Like the brightness of the firmament,
(D)And those who turn many to righteousness
(E)Like the stars forever and ever.

“But you, Daniel, (F)shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall (G)run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.”
