Daniel 12:10 KJV

I brought up the KJV version because I noticed the RSV says that many will purify themselves. If that were possible, Jesus Christ wouldn't have had to come and suffer the death of the cross for our sake. Who can purify themselves? All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. There are none good except for God. If you are filled with Gods Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Christ, then God looks at the sin already judged and forgiven. Not at your flesh in it's weakness.

@Shadetree49 interesting seems theres a real split between all the many version out there where like half of them have it one way the rest the other,
some examples

Daniel 12:10 ASV

Daniel 12:10 AMPC

Daniel 12:10 CEB

Daniel 12:10 CJB

Daniel 12:10 ERV

Daniel 12:10 ESV

Daniel 12:10 ESVUK

@imig Of the examples shown here, it seems the KJV is the only one that leaves the purifying to God alone. I will leave the door open for man to agree with the means of the purifying, though it be hard on the flesh. It takes a willing participant, after all.

of those 3 pages
ASV
AMPC
CEB
CJB
ERV
ESV
ESVUK
are the ones that say *"yourself"*

all the others on those 3 pages do not.
so KJV seems to be part of the majority.

@imig I didn't realize there were so many different versions. Amazing. It's okay. It gave me a chance to talk about the idea that my salvation doesn't depend on what I do but what He has already done.

I only need to accept his great love toward us. Anything I do after that will only be as a sign of my gratitude, except for the times I stumble and fall. Even then I am grateful He is there to pick me up and, if necessary, give me a little correction.

Ephesians 4:1-6
[1]Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God.
[2]Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love.
[3]Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace.
[4]For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future.
[5]There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
[6]one God and Father of all,
who is over all, in all, and living through all.

@Cindy Jo Just curious - what bible version are you using?
