8 And I heard, but I understood not; then said I: 'O my Lord, what shall be the latter end of these things?'
8 And I heard and did not understand. And I said, “My lord, what will be after these things?”

9 And he said: 'Go thy way, Daniel; for the words are shut up and sealed till the time of the end.

10 Many shall purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand; but they that are wise shall understand.
10 Many must be tested, and thoroughly whitened, and tried with fire, and sanctified; but the transgressors shall transgress: and none of the transgressors shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
10 Many will be chosen and purified, and, as if by fire, they will be tested, and the impious will act impiously, and none of the impious will understand, yet the teachers will understand.
11 And from the time that the continual burnt-offering shall be taken away, and the detestable thing that causes appalment set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
11 And from the time of the removal of the perpetual sacrifice, when the abomination of desolation shall be set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Happy is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
12 Blessed is he that waits, and comes to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.

13 But you, go, until the predetermined time, and you will rest and will stand in your allotted place at the end of days.
13 But as for you, O Daniel, go your way and rest till the end; then you shall arise at your appointed time, at the end of the days.
