Daniel 12:7-10

7The man dressed in linen, who was standing above the river, raised both his hands toward heaven and took a solemn oath by the One who lives forever, saying, “It will go on for a time, times, and half a time. When the shattering of the holy people has finally come to an end, all these things will have happened.”

8I heard what he said, but I did not understand what he meant. So I asked, “How will all this finally end, my lord?”

9But he said, “Go now, Daniel, for what I have said is kept secret and sealed until the time of the end.

10Many will be purified, cleansed, and refined by these trials. But the wicked will continue in their wickedness, and none of them will understand. Only those who are wise will know what it means.
