Daniel 10:6-8

Context
10:6 His body resembled yellow jasper, 1  and his face had an appearance like lightning. His eyes were like blazing torches; 2  his arms and feet had the gleam of polished bronze. His voice 3  thundered forth like the sound of a large crowd.

10:7 Only I, Daniel, saw the vision; the men who were with me did not see it. 4  On the contrary, they were overcome with fright 5  and ran away to hide. 10:8 I alone was left to see this great vision. My strength drained from 6  me, and my vigor disappeared; 7  I was without energy. 8
