And, behold, one in form as the sons of men touched my lips. And I opened my mouth and spoke and said to him who stood before me, O lord, because of the vision my pangs have turned on me, and I have no strength left.
And he came over against my place. And when he came, I was afraid and fell on my face. But he said to me, O son of man, understand, for the vision is for the time of the end.
And I, Daniel, was sick. And I was sick for days. And I arose and did the king’s business. And I was amazed at the vision; but there was no understanding.
