Daniel

Daniel 12:6–7

⁶One of them said to the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, “How long until the fulfillment of these wonders?”

⁷And the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by Him who lives forever, saying, “It will be for a time, and times, and half a time. When the power of the holy people has finally been shattered, all these things will be completed.”
