Daniel 12 Clementine Vulgate
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 In tempore autem illo consurget Michaël princeps magnus, qui stat pro filiis populi tui: et veniet tempus quale non fuit ab eo ex quo gentes esse cœperunt usque ad tempus illud. Et in tempore illo salvabitur populus tuus, omnis qui inventus fuerit scriptus in libro.
1 Y EN aquel tiempo se levantará Miguel, el gran príncipe que está por los hijos de tu pueblo; y será tiempo de angustia, cual nunca fué después que hubo gente hasta entonces: mas en aquel tiempo será libertado tu pueblo, todos los que se hallaren escritos en el libro.
2 Et multi de his qui dormiunt in terræ pulvere evigilabunt, alii in vitam æternam, et alii in opprobrium ut videant semper.
2 Y muchos de los que duermen en el polvo de la tierra serán despertados, unos para vida eterna, y otros para vergüenza y confusión perpetua.
3 Qui autem docti fuerint, fulgebunt quasi splendor firmamenti: et qui ad justitiam erudiunt multos, quasi stellæ in perpetuas æternitates.
3 Y los entendidos resplandecerán como el resplandor del firmamento; y los que enseñan á justicia la multitud, como las estrellas á perpetua eternidad.
4 Tu autem Daniel, claude sermones, et signa librum usque ad tempus statutum: plurimi pertransibunt, et multiplex erit scientia.
4 Tú empero Daniel, cierra las palabras y sella el libro hasta el tiempo del fin: pasarán muchos, y multiplicaráse la ciencia.
5 Et vidi ego Daniel, et ecce quasi duo alii stabant: unus hinc super ripam fluminis, et alius inde ex altera ripa fluminis.
5 Y yo, Daniel, miré, y he aquí otros dos que estaban, el uno de esta parte á la orilla del río, y el otro de la otra parte á la orilla del río.
6 Et dixi viro qui erat indutus lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis: Usquequo finis horum mirabilium?
6 Y dijo uno al varón vestido de lienzos, que estaba sobre las aguas del río: ¿Cuándo será el fin de estas maravillas?
7 Et audivi virum qui indutus erat lineis, qui stabat super aquas fluminis, cum elevasset dexteram et sinistram suam in cælum, et jurasset per viventem in æternum, quia in tempus, et tempora, et dimidium temporis. Et cum completa fuerit dispersio manus populi sancti, complebuntur universa hæc.
7 Y oía al varón vestido de lienzos, que estaba sobre las aguas del río, el cual alzó su diestra y su siniestra al cielo, y juró por el Viviente en los siglos, que será por tiempo, tiempos, y la mitad. Y cuando se acabare el esparcimiento del escuadrón del pueblo santo, todas estas cosas serán cumplidas.
8 Et ego audivi, et non intellexi. Et dixi: Domine mi, quid erit post hæc?
8 Y yo oí, mas no entendí. Y dije: Señor mío, ¿qué será el cumplimiento de estas cosas?
9 Et ait: Vade, Daniel, quia clausi sunt signatique sermones usque ad præfinitum tempus.
9 Y dijo: Anda, Daniel, que estas palabras están cerradas y selladas hasta el tiempo del cumplimiento.
10 Eligentur, et dealbabuntur, et quasi ignis probabuntur multi: et impie agent impii, neque intelligent omnes impii: porro docti intelligent.
10 Muchos serán limpios, y emblanquecidos, y purificados; mas los impíos obrarán impíamente, y ninguno de los impíos entenderá, pero entenderán los entendidos.
11 Et a tempore cum ablatum fuerit juge sacrificium, et posita fuerit abominatio in desolationem, dies mille ducenti nonaginta.
11 Y desde el tiempo que fuere quitado el continuo [sacrificio] hasta la abominación espantosa, habrá mil doscientos y noventa días.
12 Beatus qui exspectat, et pervenit usque ad dies mille trecentos triginta quinque.
12 Bienaventurado el que esperare, y llegare hasta mil trescientos treinta y cinco días.
13 Tu autem vade ad præfinitum: et requiesces, et stabis in sorte tua in finem dierum.
13 Y tú irás al fin, y reposarás, y te levantarás en tu suerte al fin de los días.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
But the angel, hiding from him the great mystery of Bythus, said unto him, "Go thy way quickly, Daniel, for these sayings are closed up until those who have understanding do understand them, and those who are white be made white." Moreover, they vaunt themselves as being the white and the men of good understanding.
And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and many of the just as the stars for ever." This passage is very similar to the one we have quoted from the Gospel, at least so far as regards the resurrection of dead bodies.

… Esaias is witness, when he says: The dead shall arise, and they that are in the tombs shall awake: and according to Daniel, Many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall arise, some to everlasting life, and some to everlasting shame.

… discourse be glorified to such an extent, that others cannot behold the glory of his countenance, as was said by Daniel: "Those who do understand, shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and many of the righteous as the stars for ever and ever." Thus, then, I have shown it to be, if any one read the Scriptures.
… such a resurrection it is said a little afterwards to the prophet himself, "And come thou and rest: for there is yet a day till the completion of the consummation; and thou shall rest, and rise in thy lot in the end of the days." Chapter 24 — Passages from the Psalms of David Which Predict the End of the …
