Daniel 12:1-5 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. "At that time, Michael the great leader who guards your people will take his stand. It will be a difficult time—nothing like it has ever happened since nations first appeared. But at that time every one of your people who is found written in the scroll will be rescued.

2. Many of those who sleep in the dusty land will wake up—some to eternal life, others to shame and eternal disgrace.

3. Those skilled in wisdom will shine like the sky. Those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever and always.

4. But you, Daniel, must keep these words secret! Seal the scroll until the end time! Many will stray far, but knowledge will increase."

5. I, Daniel, looked and suddenly saw two other figures—one standing on each side of the stream.
