Daniel 12:2 in Context — Daniel 12

1 E naquele tempo se levantará Miguel, o grande príncipe que está a favor dos filhos de teu povo; e será tempo de angústia tal que nunca houve desde que as nações surgiram até aquele tempo; mas naquele tempo o teu povo será livrado, todo aquele os que se achar escrito no livro.

2 E muitos dos que dormem no pó da terra ressuscitarão, uns para a vida eterna, e outros para a vergonha e o desprezo eterno.

3 E os sábios brilharão como o resplendor do céu; e os que conduzem muitos à justiça [brilharão] como as estrelas, para todo o sempre.

4 Porém tu, Daniel, guarda em segredo estas palavras e sela o livro até o tempo do fim; muitos correrão de um lado para o outro, e o conhecimento se multiplicará.
