Daniel 10:14-19 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

14. And I have come to instruct you about what will happen to your people in the future, for there is a further vision here for the future.

15. And while he was speaking with me according to these words, I turned my face toward the ground and I was speechless.

16. Then look, there was one in the form of a human; he touched my lips and I opened my mouth and I spoke and I said to the one standing before me, “My lord, because of the vision my anxieties fell upon me and I have not retained my strength.

17. So how am I, a servant of my lord to speak with you, my lord, and I just now have no strength in me?”

18. And he again touched me, the one in the form of a human, and he strengthened me.

19. And he said, “You must not fear, O beloved man. Peace be to you; be strong and be courageous!” And when he spoke with me, I was strengthened and I said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
