Daniel 10:13-20
13But the princeH8269 of the kingdomH4438 of PersiaH6539 was 1withstandingH5975 me for twenty-oneH6242H259 daysH3117; then beholdH2009, 2MichaelH4317, oneH259 of the chiefH7223 princesH8269, cameH935 to helpH5826 me, for I had been leftH3498 thereH8033 with the kingsH4428 of PersiaH6539. 14Now I have comeH935 to 3giveH995 you an understandingH995 of whatH834 will happenH7136 to your peopleH5971 in the 45latterH319 daysH3117, for the visionH2377 pertains to 6the daysH3117 yetH5750 future.”
15When he had spokenH1696 to me according to theseH428 wordsH1697, I 7turnedH5414 my faceH6440 toward the groundH776 and becameH481 8speechlessH481. 16And beholdH2009, 910one whoH1823 resembledH1823 a humanH120 beingH1121H120 was 11touchingH5060 my lipsH8193; then I openedH6605 my mouthH6310 and spokeH1696 and saidH559 to him who was standingH5975 beforeH5048 me, “O my lordH113, as a result of the visionH4759 1213anguishH6735 has comeH2015 upon me, and I have retainedH6113 noH3808 strengthH3581. 17For 14howH1963 canH3201 suchH2088 a servantH5650 of my lordH113 talkH1696 with suchH2088 as my lordH113? As for me, there remainsH5975 just nowH6258 15noH3808 strengthH3581 in me, norH3808 has any breathH5397 been leftH7604 in me.”
18Then this one with humanH120 appearanceH4758 touchedH5060 me againH3254 and 16strengthenedH2388 me. 19He saidH559, “O manH376 of 17highH2536 esteemH2536, 18do not be afraidH3372. PeaceH7965 19be with you; takeH2388 20courageH2388 and be courageousH2388!” Now as soon as he spokeH1696 to me, I receivedH2388 strengthH2388 and saidH559, “May my lordH113 speakH1696, for you have 21strengthenedH2388 me.” 20Then he saidH559, “Do you 22understandH3045 whyH4100 I cameH935 to you? But I shall nowH6258 returnH7725 to fightH3898 againstH5973 the 23princeH8269 of PersiaH6539; so I am goingH3318 forthH3318, and beholdH2009, the 2425princeH8269 of 26GreeceH3120 is about to comeH935.
