Daniel 12

1 And at yt time shal Michael stand vp, ye great prince, which standeth for ye children of thy people, & there shall be a time of trouble, such as neuer was since there began to be a nation vnto yt same time: and at yt time thy people shal be deliuered, euery one yt shal be foud written in ye boke.2 And many of them that sleepe in the dust of the earth, shall awake, some to euerlasting life, and some to shame and perpetuall contempt.3 And they yt be wise, shal shine, as ye brightnes of the firmament: and they yt turne many to righteousnes, shal shine as the starres, for euer & euer.4 But thou, O Daniel, shut vp the words, and seale the boke til the end of the time: many shal run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

5 Then I Daniel loked, & behold, there stood other two, ye one on this side of ye brinke of ye riuer, & the other on yt side of ye brinke of the riuer.6 And one saide vnto the man clothed in linen, which was vpon ye waters of the riuer, When shalbe the ende of these wonders?7 And I heard ye man clothed in line which was vpon the waters of the riuer, when he helde vp his right hand, & his left hand vnto heauen, & sware by him that liueth for euer, that it shall tarie for a time, two times & an halfe: & when he shal haue accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.8 The I heard it, but I vnderstood it not: the said I, O my Lord, what shalbe ye end of these things?9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for ye words are closed vp, and sealed, till the ende of the time.

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

11 And fro the time yt the daily sacrifice shalbe take away & the abominable desolatio set vp, there shalbe a thousand, two hundreth & ninetie daies.12 Blessed is he that waiteth & commeth to the thousand, three hundreth & fiue & thirtie daies.13 But go thou thy way til ye end be: for thou shalt rest & stand vp in thy lot, at ye end of ye daies.
