Context of Daniel 12:11

9And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words will be kept secret and sealed up until the end time. 10Many will be purged, cleansed, and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but those who have insight will understand. And from the time that the regular sacrifice is abolished and the abomination of desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. 12Blessed is the one who is patient and attains to the 1,335 days! 13But as for you, go your way to the end; then you will rest and rise for your allotted portion at the end of the age.”
