Daniel 10:6-9
King James Version
6 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.
7 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.
8 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.
9 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.

Daniel 10:6-9
English Standard Version
6 His body was like (A)beryl, his face (B)like the appearance of lightning, (C)his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and (D)legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and (E)the sound of his words like the sound of a multitude. 7 (F)And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see the vision, but a great trembling fell upon them, and they fled to hide themselves. 8 So I was left alone and saw this great vision, and (G)no strength was left in me. My radiant appearance was fearfully changed,[a] (H)and I retained no strength. 9 Then I heard the sound of his words, (I)and as I heard the sound of his words, I fell on my face in deep sleep (J)with my face to the ground.
