Daniel 10:6-8
New International Version
6 His body was like topaz,(A) his face like lightning,(B) his eyes like flaming torches,(C) his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze,(D) and his voice(E) like the sound of a multitude.
7 I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision; those who were with me did not see it,(F) but such terror overwhelmed them that they fled and hid themselves. 8 So I was left alone,(G) gazing at this great vision; I had no strength left,(H) my face turned deathly pale(I) and I was helpless.(J)
Daniel 10:6-8
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.
