In the third
year
of Cyrus
king
of Persia
a thing
was revealed
unto Daniel,
whose name
was called
Belteshazzar;
and the thing
was true,
but the time appointed
was long:
and he understood
the thing,
and had understanding
of the vision.

In those days
I Daniel
was mourning
three
full
weeks.
I ate
no pleasant
bread,
neither came
flesh
nor wine
in my mouth,
neither did I anoint
myself at all,
till three
whole
weeks
were fulfilled.

And in the four

of the first

of the great

Then I lifted up
mine eyes,
and looked,
and behold a certain
man
clothed
in linen,
whose loins
were girded
with fine gold
of Uphaz:
His body
also was like the beryl,
and his face
as the appearance
of lightning,
and his eyes
as lamps
of fire,
and his arms
and his feet
like in colour
to polished
brass,
and the voice
of his words
like the voice
of a multitude.

And I Daniel
alone saw
the vision:
for the men
that were with me saw
not the vision;
but
a great
quaking
fell
upon them, so that they fled
to hide
themselves.

Therefore I was left alone,
and saw
this great
vision,
and there remained
no strength
in me: for my comeliness
was turned
in me into corruption,
and I retained
no strength.
Yet heard
I the voice
of his words:
and when I heard
the voice
of his words,
then was I in a deep sleep
on my face,
and my face
toward the ground.
And, behold, an hand
touched
me, which set
me upon my knees
and upon the palms
of my hands.
And he said
unto me, O Daniel,
a man
greatly beloved,
understand
the words
that I speak
unto thee, and stand
upright:
for unto thee am I now sent.
And when he had spoken
this word
unto me, I stood
trembling.

Then said
he unto me, Fear
not, Daniel:
for from the first
day
that thou didst set
thine heart
to understand,
and to chasten
thyself before
thy God,
thy words
were heard,
and I am come
for thy words.

But the prince
of the kingdom
of Persia
withstood
me one
and twenty
days:
but, lo, Michael,
one
of the chief
princes,
came
to help
me; and I remained
there with
the kings
of Persia.

Now I am come
to make thee understand
what shall befall
thy people
in the latter
days:
for yet the vision
is for many days.
And when he had spoken
such words
unto me, I set
my face
toward the ground,
and I became dumb.
And, behold, one like the similitude
of the sons
of men
touched
my lips:
then I opened
my mouth,
and spake,
and said
unto him that stood
before me, O my lord,
by the vision
my sorrows
are turned
upon me, and I have retained
no strength.

For how

the servant

talk
with this my lord?
for as for me, straightway
there remained
no strength
in me, neither is there breath
left
in me.
Then there came again
and touched
me one like the appearance
of a man,
and he strengthened
me,
And said,
O man
greatly beloved,
fear
not: peace
be unto thee, be strong,
yea, be strong.
And when he had spoken
unto me, I was strengthened,
and said,
Let my lord
speak;
for thou hast strengthened
me.

Then said
he, Knowest
thou wherefore I come
unto thee? and now will I return
to fight
with the prince
of Persia:
and when I am gone forth,
lo, the prince
of Grecia
shall come.

But
I will shew
thee that which is noted

and there is none
that holdeth
with me in these things, but Michael
your prince.
