And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was by the side of the great river;

Then I, Daniel, looking, saw two others, one at the edge of the river on this side and one at the edge of the river on that side.

And I said to the man clothed in linen, who was over the waters of the river, How long will it be to the end of these wonders?

Then in my hearing the man clothed in linen, who was over the river, lifting up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, took an oath by him who is living for ever that it would be a time, times, and a half; and when the power of the crusher of the holy people comes to an end, all these things will be ended.
