Daniel 8:16-18

New International Reader's Version

¹⁶ I heard a voice from the Ulai Canal. It called out, “Gabriel, tell Daniel what his vision means.”

¹⁷ Gabriel came close to where I was standing. I was terrified and fell down flat with my face toward the ground. Here is what he said to me. “Son of man, I want you to understand the vision. It’s about the time of the end.”

¹⁸ While he was speaking to me, I was sound asleep. I lay with my face on the ground. Then he touched me. He raised me to my feet.
