Daniel 12

Douay-Rheims 1899

About this edition

1But at that time shall Michael rise up, the great prince, who standeth for the children of thy people: and a time shall come such as never was from the time that nations began even until that time. And at that time shall thy people be saved, every one that shall be found written in the book.

2And many of those that sleep in the dust of the earth, shall awake: some unto life everlasting, and others unto reproach, to see it always.

3But they that are learned shall shine as the brightness of the firmament: and they that instruct many to justice, as stars for all eternity.

4But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time appointed: many shall pass over, and knowledge shall be manifold.

5And I Daniel looked, and behold as it were two others stood: one on this side upon the bank of the river, and another on that side, on the other bank of the river.

6And I said to the man that was clothed In linen, that stood upon the waters of the river: How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?

7And I heard the man that was clothed in linen, that stood upon the waters of the river: when he had lifted up his right hand, and his left hand to heaven, and had sworn, by him that liveth for ever, that it should be unto a time, and times, and half a time. And when the scattering of the band of the holy people shall be accomplished, all these things shall be finished.

8And I heard, and understood not. And I said: O my lord, what shall be after these things?

9And he said: Go, Daniel, because the words are shut up, and sealed until the appointed time.

10Many shall be chosen, and made white, and shall be tried as fire: and the wicked shall deal wickedly, and none of the wicked shall understand, but the learned shall understand.

11And from the time when the continual sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination unto desolation shall be set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred ninety days,

12Blessed is he that waiteth and cometh unto a thousand three hundred thirty-five days.

13But go thou thy ways until the time appointed: and thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot unto the end of the days.

Clementine Vulgate 1598

About this edition

1In tempore autem illo consurget Michaël princeps magnus, qui stat pro filiis populi tui: et veniet tempus quale non fuit ab eo ex quo gentes esse cœperunt usque ad tempus illud. Et in tempore illo salvabitur populus tuus, omnis qui inventus fuerit scriptus in libro.

2Et multi de his qui dormiunt in terræ pulvere evigilabunt, alii in vitam æternam, et alii in opprobrium ut videant semper.

3Qui autem docti fuerint, fulgebunt quasi splendor firmamenti: et qui ad justitiam erudiunt multos, quasi stellæ in perpetuas æternitates.

4Tu autem Daniel, claude sermones, et signa librum usque ad tempus statutum: plurimi pertransibunt, et multiplex erit scientia.

5Et vidi ego Daniel, et ecce quasi duo alii stabant: unus hinc super ripam fluminis, et alius inde ex altera ripa fluminis.

6Et dixi viro qui erat indutus lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis: Usquequo finis horum mirabilium?

7Et audivi virum qui indutus erat lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis, cum elevasset dexteram et sinistram suam in cælum, et jurasset per viventem in æternum, quia in tempus, et tempora, et dimidium temporis. Et cum completa fuerit dispersio manus populi sancti, complebuntur universa hæc.

8Et ego audivi, et non intellexi. Et dixi: Domine mi, quid erit post hæc?

9Et ait: Vade, Daniel, quia clausi sunt signatique sermones usque ad præfinitum tempus.

10Eligentur, et dealbabuntur, et quasi ignis probabuntur multi: et impie agent impii, neque intelligent omnes impii: porro docti intelligent.

11Et a tempore cum ablatum fuerit juge sacrificium, et posita fuerit abominatio in desolationem, dies mille ducenti nonaginta.

12Beatus qui exspectat, et pervenit usque ad dies mille trecentos triginta quinque.

13Tu autem vade ad præfinitum: et requiesces, et stabis in sorte tua in finem dierum.

About this edition

1“But at that time Michael will rise up, the great leader, who stands up for the sons of your people. And a time will come, such as has not been from the time that nations began, even until that time. And, at that time, your people will be saved, all who will be found written in the book.

2And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth will awaken: some to everlasting life, and others to a reproach that they will always see.

3But those who have taught will shine like the brightness of the firmament, and those who instruct many towards justice, like the stars for unending eternity.

4But you, Daniel, close the message and seal the book, until the established time. Many will pass through, and knowledge will be increased.”

5And I, Daniel, looked, and behold, similarly two others stood up, one over here, on the bank of the river, and the other over there, on the other bank of the river.

6And I said to the man, who was clothed in linen, who stood over the waters of the river, “How long will it be until the end of these wonders?”

7And I heard the man, who was clothed in linen, who stood over the waters of the river, when he had lifted his right hand and his left hand up to heaven, and had sworn by He who lives forever, that it would be for a time, and times, and half a time. And when the dispersion of the hand of the holy people is completed, all these things will be completed.

8And I heard and did not understand. And I said, “My lord, what will be after these things?”

9And he said, “Go, Daniel, for the words are closed and sealed until the predetermined time.

10Many will be chosen and purified, and, as if by fire, they will be tested, and the impious will act impiously, and none of the impious will understand, yet the teachers will understand.

11And from the time when the continual sacrifice will be taken away and the abomination of desolation will be set up, there will be one thousand two hundred ninety days.

12Blessed is he who waits and reaches until one thousand three hundred thirty-five days.

13But you, go, until the predetermined time, and you will rest and will stand in your allotted place at the end of days.
