Prophecy of the End Time
The great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people;
aAnd there shall be a time of trouble,
Such as never was since there was a nation,
Even to that time.
And at that time your people bshall be delivered,
Every one who is found cwritten in the book.
aSome to everlasting life,
Some to shame band everlasting contempt.
Like the brightness of the firmament,
bAnd those who turn many to righteousness
cLike the stars forever and ever.

Daniel 12:3
And they that be wise - Those who are thoroughly instructed in Christ' s word and doctrine, shall shine - shall be eminently distinguished in the Christian Church by the holiness of their lives, and the purity of their creed.
And they that turn many to righteousness - They who, by preaching Christ crucified among their brethren, shall be the means of converting them to the Christian faith; shall be as the stars - bright luminaries in the Gospel kingdom of Jesus Christ. This also may be applied to the case of holy and useful men, particularly the faithful ministers of the Gospel, in the day of judgment. See James 5:20 (note), I Corinthians 15:41-42 (note).
