The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 32: Daniel: The Challoner Revision
Bible. Daniel
The god Maozim... That is, the god of forces or strong holds.
11:39. And he shall do this to fortify Maozim with a strange god, whom
he hath acknowledged, and he shall increase glory, and shall give them
power over many, and shall divide the land gratis.
And he shall increase glory, etc... He shall bestow honours, riches and
lands, upon them that shall worship his god.
11:40. And at the time prefixed the king of the south shall fight
against him, and the king of the north shall come against him like a
tempest, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with a great navy, and he
shall enter into the countries, and shall destroy, and pass through.
11:41. And he shall enter into the glorious land, and many shall fall:
and these only shall be saved out of his hand, Edom, and Moab, and the
principality of the children of Ammon.
11:42. And he shall lay his hand upon the lands: and the land of Egypt
shall not escape.
11:43. And he shall have power over the treasures of gold, and of
silver, and all the precious things of Egypt: and he shall pass through
Lybia, and Ethiopia.
11:44. And tidings out of the east, and out of the north, shall trouble
him: and he shall come with a great multitude to destroy and slay many.
11:45. And he shall fix his tabernacle, Apadno, between the seas, upon a
glorious and holy mountain: and he shall come even to the top thereof,
and none shall help him.
Apadno... Some take it for the proper name of a place: others, from the
Hebrew, translate it his palace.
Daniel Chapter 12
Michael shall stand up for the people of God: with other things relating
to Antichrist, and the end of the world.
12:1. But at that time shall Michael rise up, the great prince, who
standeth for the children of thy people: and a time shall come, such as
never was from the time that nations began, even until that time. And at
that time shall thy people be saved, every one that shall be found
written in the book.
12:2. And many of those that sleep in the dust of the earth, shall
awake: some unto life everlasting, and others unto reproach, to see it
always.
12:3. But they that are learned, shall shine as the brightness of the
firmament: and they that instruct many to justice, as stars for all
eternity.
Learned... Viz., in the law of God and true wisdom, which consists in
knowing and loving God.
12:4. But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to
the time appointed: many shall pass over, and knowledge shall be
manifold.
12:5. And I, Daniel, looked, and behold as it were two others stood: one
on this side upon the bank of the river, and another on that side, on
the other bank of the river.
12:6. And I said to the man that was clothed in linen, that stood upon
the waters of the river: How long shall it be to the end of these
wonders?
