¹³ Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth^(A) and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying:

¹¹ For you this whole vision^(A) is nothing but words sealed^(B) in a scroll. And if you give the scroll to someone who can read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I can’t; it is sealed.”

⁹ Then I looked, and I saw a hand^(A) stretched out to me. In it was a scroll,^(B)

¹⁰ which he unrolled before me. On both sides of it were written words of lament and mourning and woe.^(A)

⁴ But you, Daniel, roll up and seal^(A) the words of the scroll until the time of the end.^(B) Many will go here and there^(C) to increase knowledge.”
