Daniel 10:14-11:1
International Standard Version
14 Now I’ve come to help you understand what will happen to your people in the days to come, because the vision pertains to those days.’
15 “After he had spoken to me like this, I bowed my face to the ground, unable to speak. 16 But suddenly someone who resembled a human being touched my lips, so addressing the one who was standing in front of me, I opened my mouth and said, ‘Sir,[a] I’m overwhelmed with anguish by this vision. I have no strength left.[b] 17 So how can a servant of my lord talk with someone like you, sir?[c] And as for me, there’s no strength left in me, and I can hardly breathe.’
18 “Then this person who looked like a man touched me again and strengthened me 19 and said, ‘Don’t be afraid, man highly regarded. Be at peace, and be strong.’
“As soon as he spoke to me, I gained strength and replied, ‘Sir, please[d] speak, now that you’ve strengthened me.’
20 “Then he said, ‘Do you understand why I came to you? Soon I’ll return to fight the prince of Persia. I’m going forth to war—and take note—the prince of Greece[e] is coming! 21 I’ll inform you about what has been recorded in the Book of Truth. No one stands firmly with me against these opponents,[f] except Michael your prince. 11 1 In year one of King Darius the Mede, I arose to fortify and strengthen him.’”

Daniel 10:14-11:1
New International Version
14 Now I have come to explain(A) to you what will happen to your people in the future,(B) for the vision concerns a time yet to come.(C)”
15 While he was saying this to me, I bowed with my face toward the ground and was speechless.(D) 16 Then one who looked like a man[a] touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and began to speak.(E) I said to the one standing before me, “I am overcome with anguish(F) because of the vision, my lord, and I feel very weak. 17 How can I, your servant, talk with you, my lord? My strength is gone and I can hardly breathe.”(G)
18 Again the one who looked like a man touched(H) me and gave me strength.(I) 19 “Do not be afraid, you who are highly esteemed,”(J) he said. “Peace!(K) Be strong now; be strong.”(L)
When he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, “Speak, my lord, since you have given me strength.”(M)
20 So he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? Soon I will return to fight against the prince of Persia, and when I go, the prince of Greece(N) will come; 21 but first I will tell you what is written in the Book of Truth.(O) (No one supports me against them except Michael,(P) your prince. 11 1 And in the first year of Darius(Q) the Mede, I took my stand to support and protect him.)
