Daniel 10:18 CPDV

¹⁶  And behold, something in the likeness of a son of man touched my lips. Then, opening my mouth, I spoke and said to him who stood before me, 'My lord, at the sight of you, my limbs became weak and no strength has remained in me.

¹⁷  And so, how can the servant of my lord speak with my lord? For no strength remains in me; and even my breathing is hindered.'

¹⁸  Therefore, he who looked like a man, touched me again and strengthened me.

¹⁹  And he said, 'Fear not, O man of longing. May peace be with you. Take courage and be strong.' And when he spoke to me, I recovered, and I said, 'Speak, my lord, for you have strengthened me.'

²⁰  And he said, 'Do you not know why I have come to you? And next I will return, to fight against the leader of the Persians. When I was leaving, there appeared the leader of the Greeks arriving.
