“At that time Michael,
the archangel who stands guard over your nation,
will arise.
Then there will be a time of anguish greater
than any since nations first came into existence.
But at that time every one of your people
whose name is written in the book will be rescued.
Many of those whose bodies lie dead and buried will rise up,
some to everlasting life
and some to shame and everlasting disgrace.
Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky,
and those who lead many to righteousness
will shine like the stars forever.
But you, Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret;
seal up the book until the time of the end,
when many will rush here and there,
and knowledge will increase.”
