Daniel 10:10-15

10Then behold, a hand 1touched me and set me trembling on my 2hands and knees. 11He said to me, “O 3Daniel, man of 4high esteem, 5understand the words that I am about to tell you and 6stand 7upright, for I have now been sent to you.” And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood up 8trembling. 12Then he said to me, “9Do not be afraid, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart on understanding this and on 10humbling yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response 11to your words. 13But the prince of the kingdom of Persia was 12withstanding me for twenty-one days; then behold, 13Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left there with the kings of Persia. 14Now I have come to 14give you an understanding of what will happen to your people in the 1516latter days, for the vision pertains to 17the days yet future.”

15When he had spoken to me according to these words, I 18turned my face toward the ground and became 19speechless.
