And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

Verse 3 is found in chapter 12 of Daniel. Those who have insight will shine like the brightness of the firmament, and those who lead many to righteousness like the stars. The image transforms faithfulness and spiritual instruction into future glory. In a context of persecution, teaching and remaining faithful may not produce immediate reward; Daniel places their value within the horizon of resurrection and God’s final recognition.

Die Lehrer aber werden leuchten wie des Himmels Glanz, und die, so viele zur Gerechtigkeit weisen, wie die Sterne immer und ewiglich.
Y los entendidos resplandecerán como el resplandor del firmamento; y los que enseñan a justicia la multitud, como las estrellas a perpetua eternidad.
Los entendidos resplandecerán como el resplandor del firmamento, y los que conduzcan a muchos a la justicia, como las estrellas, para siempre y siempre.
Ceux qui auront été intelligents brilleront comme la splendeur du ciel, et ceux qui auront enseigné la justice, à la multitude brilleront comme les étoiles, à toujours et à perpétuité.
E gl’intendenti risplenderanno come lo splendor della distesa; e quelli che avranno giustificati molti, risplenderanno come le stelle in sempiterno.
Os que forem sábios, pois, resplandecerão como o fulgor do firmamento; e os que a muitos ensinam a justiça, como as estrelas sempre e eternamente.
智慧人要發光,如同天上的光;那領許多人歸於義的必發光如星,直到永永遠遠。
