Context of Daniel 10:11

9Yet I heard the sound of his words. When I heard him speaking, I fell on my face in a deep sleep with my face to the ground. 10“Then behold, a hand touched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees. He said to me, ‘Daniel, highly valued man, carefully consider the words I am speaking to you. Stand up! For now I have been sent to you.’ When he spoke this word to me, I stood up trembling. 12“Then he said to me, ‘Don’t be afraid, Daniel! For from the first day that you set your heart to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. I have come because of your words. 13However, the prince of the kingdom of Persia resisted me for 21 days, but behold Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me because I had been detained there with the kings of Persia.
