Daniel 12:5-12

5Then I, DanielH1840, lookedH7200, and beholdH2009, twoH8147 othersH312 were standingH5975, oneH259 on thisH2008 bankH8193 of the streamH2975 and the otherH259 on that bankH8193 of the streamH2975.

6And 1someone saidH559 to the manH376 2dressedH3847 in linenH906, whoH834 was aboveH4480H4605 the watersH4325 of the streamH2975, “3HowH4970 longH5704H4970 will it be untilH5704 the endH7093 of these wondersH6382?”

7And I heardH8085 the manH376 dressedH3847 in linenH906, whoH834 was aboveH4480H4605 the watersH4325 of the streamH2975, 4as he 5raisedH7311 his rightH3225 handH3225 and his leftH8040 towardH413 heavenH8064, and sworeH7650 by 6Him who livesH2416 foreverH5769 that it would be for a 78timeH4150, 9timesH4150, and halfH2677 a 10time; and as soon as 11they finishH3615 12smashingH5310 the 13powerH3027 of the holyH6944 peopleH5971, allH3605 theseH428 events will be completedH3615.

8But as for me, I heardH8085 but did not understandH995; so I saidH559, “My lordH113, whatH4100 will be the 14outcomeH319 of theseH428 events?”

9And he saidH559, “GoH1980 your way, DanielH1840, for these wordsH1697 will be keptH5640 secretH5640 and 15sealedH2856 upH2856 untilH5704 the endH7093 timeH6256.

1016ManyH7227 will be purgedH1305, 17cleansedH3835, and refinedH6884, but the 18wickedH7563 will actH7561 wickedlyH7561; and noneH3808H3605 of the wickedH7563 will understandH995, but 19those who 20haveH7919 insightH7919 will understandH995.

11And from the timeH6256 that the regularH8548 sacrificeH8548 is abolishedH5493 and the 21abominationH8251 22of desolationH8074 is setH5414 upH5414, there will be 1,290H505H3967H8673 daysH3117.

1223BlessedH835 is the one who is patientH2442 and attainsH5060 to the 241,335H505H7969H3967H7970H2568 daysH3117!
