Daniel 10:1-9

1In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, a messageH1697 was revealedH1540 to DanielH1841, whoH834 was calledH7121H8034 BelteshazzarH1095. The messageH1697 was trueH571, and it concerned a greatH1419 conflictH6635.1 And the understandingH998 of the messageH1697 was given to himH995 in a visionH4758.

2In thoseH1992 daysH3117 IH589, DanielH1841, wasH1961 mourningH56 for threeH7969 fullH3117 weeksH7620. 3I ateH398 noH3808 richH2532 foodH3899, noH3808 meatH1320 or wineH3196 enteredH935H413 my mouthH6310, and I did notH3808 anoint myself with oilH5480 untilH5704 the threeH7969 weeksH7620H3117 were completedH4390.

4On the twenty-fourthH6242H702 dayH3117 of the firstH7223 monthH2320, as IH589 wasH1961 standing onH5921 the bankH3027 of the greatH1419H1931 riverH5104, the TigrisH2313, 5I lifted upH5375 my eyesH5869, and beholdH7200H2009, there was a certainH259 manH376 dressedH3847 in linenH906, with a beltH2296 of fine goldH3800 from UphazH210 around his waistH4975. 6His bodyH1472 was like berylH8658, his faceH6440 like the brillianceH4758 of lightningH1300, his eyesH5869 like flamingH784 torchesH3940, his armsH2220 and legsH4772 like the gleamH5869 of polishedH7044 bronzeH5178, andH6963 his voiceH1697 like the soundH6963 of a multitudeH1995.

7OnlyH905 IH589, DanielH1841, sawH7200 the visionH4759; the menH582 with meH5973 did notH3808 see itH7200, butH61 a greatH1419 terrorH2731 fellH5307 upon themH5921, and they ranH1272 and hid themselvesH2244.

8So IH589 was left aloneH7604H905, gazing atH7200 thisH2063 greatH1419 visionH4759. NoH3808 strengthH3581 remainedH7604 in me; my faceH1935 grewH2015H5921 deathly paleH4889, and I was powerlessH3808H6113H3581. 9I heardH8085 the soundH6963 of his wordsH1697, and as I listenedH8085, IH589H1961 fell into a deep sleepH7290H5921, with my faceH6440 to the groundH776.
