Daniel 12:5-13

New International Version

⁵ Then I, Daniel, looked, and there before me stood two others, one on this bank of the river and one on the opposite bank.^{(A) 6} One of them said to the man clothed in linen,^(B) who was above the waters of the river, “How long will it be before these astonishing things are fulfilled?”^(C)

⁷ The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, lifted his right hand^(D) and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by him who lives forever,^(E) saying, “It will be for a time, times and half a time.^[a](F) When the power of the holy people^(G) has been finally broken, all these things will be completed.^(H)”

⁸ I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, “My lord, what will the outcome of all this be?”

⁹ He replied, “Go your way, Daniel, because the words are rolled up and sealed^(I) until the time of the end.^{(J) 10} Many will be purified, made spotless and refined,^(K) but the wicked will continue to be wicked.^(L) None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.^(M)

¹¹ “From the time that the daily sacrifice^(N) is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation^(O) is set up, there will be 1,290 days.^{(P) 12} Blessed is the one who waits^(Q) for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.^(R)

¹³ “As for you, go your way till the end.^(S) You will rest,^(T) and then at the end of the days you will rise to receive your allotted inheritance.^(U)”
