¹¹ And the vision of all this has become for you like the words of a book that is sealed. When men give it to one who can read, saying, Read this, I pray you, he says, I cannot, for it is sealed.

⁹ And when I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.

¹⁰ And He spread it before me and it was written within and on the back, and written on it were words of lamentation and mourning and woe.

⁴ But you, O Daniel, shut up the words and seal the Book until the time of the end. [Then] many shall run to and fro and search anxiously [through the Book], and knowledge [of God’s purposes as revealed by His prophets] shall be increased and become great.^(A)
