Prophetia Danielis, 12
1. In tempore autem illo con surget Michael, princeps magnus, qui stat pro filiis populi tui, et erit tempus angustiae, quale non fuit ab eo, quo gentes esse coeperunt, usque ad tempus illud. Et in tempore illo salvabitur populus tuus, omnis, qui inventus fuerit scriptus in libro.
1. "At that time shall arise Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time; but at that time your people shall be delivered, every one whose name shall be found written in the book.
2. Et multi de his, qui dormiunt in terra pulveris, evigilabunt: alii in vitam aeternam, et alii in opprobrium sempiternum.
2. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3. Qui autem docti fuerint, fulgebunt quasi splendor firmamenti; et, qui ad iustitiam erudierint multos, quasi stellae in perpetuas aeternitates.
3. And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the firmament; and those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.
4. Tu autem, Daniel, claude sermones et signa librum usque ad tempus finis; pertransibunt plurimi, et multiplex erit scientia”.
4. But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase."
5. Et vidi ego Daniel: et ecce duo alii stabant, unus hinc super ripam fluminis, et alius inde ex altera ripa fluminis.
5. Then I Daniel looked, and behold, two others stood, one on this bank of the stream and one on that bank of the stream.
6. Et dixit viro, qui indutus erat lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis: “Usquequo finis horum mirabilium?”.
6. And I said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, "How long shall it be till the end of these wonders?"
7. Et audivi virum, qui indutus erat lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis, cum levasset dexteram et sinistram suam in caelum et iurasset per Viventem in aeternum: “Quia in tempus, tempora et dimidium temporis; et cum completa fuerit dispersio manus populi sancti, complebuntur universa haec”.
7. The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven; and I heard him swear by him who lives for ever that it would be for a time, two times, and half a time; and that when the shattering of the power of the holy people comes to an end all these things would be accomplished.
8. Et ego audivi et non intellexi et dixi: “Domine mi, quid erit finis horum?”.
8. I heard, but I did not understand. Then I said, "O my lord, what shall be the issue of these things?"
9. Et ait: “Vade, Daniel, quia clausi sunt signatique sermones usque ad tempus praefinitum.
9. He said, "Go your way, Daniel, for the words are shut up and sealed until the time of the end.
10. Purificabuntur et dealbabuntur et probabuntur multi, et impie agent impii, neque intellegent omnes impii; porro docti intellegent.
10. Many 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.
11. Et a tempore, cum ablatum fuerit iuge sacrificium, et posita fuerit abominatio vastatoris, dies mille ducenti nonaginta.
11. And from the time that the continual burnt offering is taken away, and the abomination that makes desolate is set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12. Beatus, qui exspectat et pervenit usque ad dies mille trecentos triginta quinque.
12. Blessed is he who waits and comes to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
13. Tu autem vade ad finem et requiesce; et stabis in sorte tua in fine dierum”. (Hucusque Daniel in Hebraeo volumine legimus. Cetera, quae sequuntur usque ad finem libri, de Theodotionis editione translata sunt).
13. But go your way till the end; and you shall rest, and shall stand in your allotted place at the end of the days."
