He said to me, "And now, Daniel, close the book and put a seal on it until the end of the world. Meanwhile, many people will waste their efforts trying to understand what is happening."

He answered, "You must go now, Daniel, because these words are to be kept secret and hidden until the end comes.

"And you, Daniel, be faithful to the end. Then you will die, but you will rise to receive your reward at the end of time."

Everyone will hate you because of me. But whoever holds out to the end will be saved.

and the enemy who sowed the weeds is the Devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvest workers are angels.

Just as the weeds are gathered up and burned in the fire, so the same thing will happen at the end of the age:

But whoever holds out to the end will be saved.

The end of all things is near. You must be self-controlled and alert, to be able to pray.

His royal power will continue to grow; his kingdom will always be at peace. He will rule as King David's successor, basing his power on right and justice, from now until the end of time. The LORD Almighty is determined to do all this.

He was given authority, honor, and royal power, so that the people of all nations, races, and languages would serve him. His authority would last forever, and his kingdom would never end.

The power and greatness of all the kingdoms on earth will be given to the people of the Supreme God. Their royal power will never end, and all rulers on earth will serve and obey them."

"My Father has given me all things. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

Jesus drew near and said to them, "I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth.

"My Father has given me all things. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him."

The Father loves his Son and has put everything in his power.

Jesus knew that the Father had given him complete power; he knew that he had come from God and was going to God.

His appearing will be brought about at the right time by God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and the Lord of lords.
