New King James Version

Daniel 12:1-5 New King James Version (NKJV)

1. “At that time Michael shall stand up,The great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people;And there shall be a time of trouble,Such as never was since there was a nation,Even to that time.And at that time your people shall be delivered,Every one who is found written in the book.

2. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake,Some to everlasting life,Some to shame and everlasting contempt.

3. Those who are wise shall shineLike the brightness of the firmament,And those who turn many to righteousnessLike the stars forever and ever.

4. “But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.”

5. Then I, Daniel, looked; and there stood two others, one on this riverbank and the other on that riverbank.
