Daniel 12:2-4

12:2 Many of those who sleep

in the dusty ground will awake –

some to everlasting life,

and others to shame and everlasting abhorrence. ¹ 

12:3 But the wise will shine

like the brightness of the heavenly expanse.

And those bringing many to righteousness

will be like the stars forever and ever.

12:4 “But you, Daniel, close up these words and seal the book until the time of the end. Many will dash about, ²  and knowledge will increase.”

[12:2]  ¹ sn This verse is the only undisputed reference to a literal resurrection found in the Hebrew Bible.

[12:4]  ² tn Or “will run back and forth”; KJV “shall run to and fro”; NIV “will go here and there”; CEV “will go everywhere.”

[12:4]  sn Many will dash about is probably an allusion to Amos 8:12.
