Daniel 12:7-10

7And I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, 1as he 2raised his right hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by 3Him who lives forever that it would be for a 45time, 6times, and half a 7time; and as soon as 8they finish 9smashing the 10power of the holy people, all these events will be completed.

8But as for me, I heard but did not understand; so I said, “My lord, what will be the 11outcome of these events?”

9And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words will be kept secret and 12sealed up until the end time.

1013Many will be purged, 14cleansed, and refined, but the 15wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but 16those who 17have insight will understand.
