King James Version

The Book
of Daniel

Chapter 10

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.

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 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.

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.
