Dn 12:1In tempore autem illō cōnsurget Michaël prīnceps magnus, quī stat prō fīliīs populī tuī: et veniet tempus quāle nōn fuit ab eō ex quō gentēs esse coepērunt ūsque ad tempus illud.But at that time Michael will rise up, the great prince, who stands for the sons of your people: and there will come a time such as there has not been from when nations began to be right up to that time. Dn 12:1Et in tempore illō salvābitur populus tuus, omnis quī inventus fuerit scrīptus in librō.And at that time your people will be saved, everyone who shall be found written in the book. Dn 12:2Et multī dē hīs quī dormiunt in terrae pulvere ēvigilābunt, aliī in vītam aeternam, et aliī in opprobrium ut videant semper.And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake, some to eternal life, and others to reproach, that they may see it always. Dn 12:3Quī autem doctī fuerint, fulgēbunt quasi splendor firmāmentī: et quī ad jūstitiam ērudiunt multōs, quasi stellae in perpetuās aeternitātēs.But those who have been learned will shine like the brightness of the firmament: and those who instruct many to justice, like the stars for everlasting eternities.

Dn 12:4Tū autem Daniēl, claude sermōnēs, et signā librum ūsque ad tempus statūtum: plūrimī pertrānsībunt, et multiplex erit scientia.But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the appointed time: very many will pass through, and knowledge will be manifold." Dn 12:5Et vīdī ego Daniēl, et ecce quasi duo aliī stābant: ūnus hinc super rīpam flūminis, et alius inde ex alterā rīpā flūminis.And I, Daniel, looked, and behold, as it were two others were standing: one on this side, upon the bank of the river, and the other on that side, on the other bank of the river. Dn 12:6Et dīxī virō quī erat indūtus līneīs, quī stābat super aquās flūminis: Usquequō fīnis hōrum mīrābilium?And I said to the man who was clothed in linen, who was standing upon the waters of the river: "How long until the end of these wonders?" Dn 12:7Et audīvī virum quī indūtus erat līneīs, quī stābat super aquās flūminis, cum ēlevāsset dexteram et sinistram suam in caelum, et jūrāsset per vīventem in aeternum, quia in tempus, et tempora, et dīmidium temporis.And I heard the man who was clothed in linen, who was standing upon the waters of the river, when he had raised his right hand and his left to heaven, and had sworn by him who lives for ever, that it would be for a time, and times, and half a time.

Dn 12:7Et cum complēta fuerit dispersiō manūs populī sānctī, complēbuntur ūniversa haec."And when the scattering of the band of the holy people has been completed, all these things will be completed." Dn 12:8Et ego audīvī, et nōn intellēxī.And I heard, and did not understand. Dn 12:8Et dīxī: Domine mī, quid erit post haec?And I said: "My lord, what will be after these things?" Dn 12:9Et ait: Vāde, Daniēl, quia clausī sunt signātīque sermōnēs ūsque ad praefīnītum tempus.And he said: "Go, Daniel, because the words have been shut up and sealed until the time fixed beforehand. Dn 12:10Ēligentur, et dealbābuntur, et quasi ignis probābuntur multī: et impiē agent impiī, neque intelligent omnēs impiī: porrō doctī intelligent.Many will be chosen, and made white, and tried as by fire: and the impious will act impiously, nor will any of the impious understand: but the learned will understand. Dn 12:11Et ā tempore cum ablātum fuerit jūge sacrificium, et posita fuerit abōminātiō in dēsōlātiōnem, diēs mīlle ducentī nōnāgintā.And from the time when the continual sacrifice shall have been taken away, and the abomination shall have been set up for desolation, there will be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.

Dn 12:12Beātus quī exspectat, et pervenit ūsque ad diēs mīlle trecentōs trīgintā quīnque.Blessed is he who waits, and reaches right up to a thousand three hundred and thirty-five days. Dn 12:13Tū autem vāde ad praefīnītum: et requiēscēs, et stābis in sorte tuā in fīnem diērum.But you, go to the appointed end: and you will rest, and you will stand in your lot at the end of the days."
