6 And one said to the man clothed in ^alinen, who was above the waters of the river, ^b“How long shall the fulfillment of these wonders be?”  ‡

7 Then I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, when he ^aheld up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and swore by Him ^bwho lives forever, ^cthat it shall be for a time, times, and half a time; ^dand when the power of ^ethe holy people has been completely shattered, all these things shall be finished.  ‡

10 ^aMany shall be purified, made white, and refined, ^bbut the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but ^cthe wise shall understand.  ‡

11 “And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
