La gran visión final
10 El año tercero de Ciro, rey de Persia, Daniel (apodado Baltasar) tuvo una revelación. El mensaje, que era digno de crédito, se refería a una gran guerra. Él entendió el mensaje, pues la visión le proporcionó perspicacia.
2 Por entonces, yo, Daniel, estuve tres semanas haciendo penitencia. 3 No comí alimentos apetitosos; no probé carne ni bebí vino; ni me perfumé hasta que pasaron las tres semanas. 4 El día vigésimo cuarto del primer mes estaba yo a orillas del Tigris cuando, 5 al alzar la vista, vi ante mí a un hombre vestido de lino, con un cinturón de oro puro. 6 Su cuerpo parecía de crisólito, su cara destellaba como el relámpago, sus ojos semejaban antorchas encendidas, sus brazos y piernas brillaban como el bronce bruñido, y su voz resonaba como si hablara una multitud. 7 Yo, Daniel, fui el único testigo de la visión; ninguno de los que estaban conmigo la vio, pues, sobrecogidos por el terror, huyeron a esconderse. 8 Así que me quedé solo contemplando aquella gran visión. Me quedé sin fuerzas, mi semblante se cubrió de una palidez mortal y me abandonó el vigor. 9 En aquel momento oí el sonido de su voz y caí de bruces, en trance. 10 Sentí entonces que una mano me tocaba y me levantaba tembloroso sobre mis manos y mis rodillas. 11 Luego me dijo:
— Daniel, tú que eres una persona tan apreciada, presta mucha atención al mensaje que voy a transmitirte y ponte en pie, pues acabo de ser enviado a ti.
Cuando oí estas palabras, me incorporé tembloroso. 12 El [hombre vestido de lino] continuó:
— No temas, Daniel. Tus palabras fueron escuchadas desde el primer día en que te propusiste comprender y te humillaste ante tu Dios. Yo he venido a responder a esas palabras. 13 Pero el príncipe del reino de Persia me ha opuesto resistencia durante veintiún días. Menos mal que Miguel, uno de los primeros príncipes, acudió en mi ayuda, pues yo estaba retenido junto a los reyes de Persia. 14 Pero ahora he podido venir a explicarte lo que sucederá a tu pueblo en los últimos días, pues la visión se refiere a un tiempo todavía por llegar.
15 Mientras me dirigía estas palabras, di con mi rostro en tierra y enmudecí. 16 Pero alguien que parecía un hombre tocó mis labios; entonces abrí la boca y comencé a hablar. Dije al que estaba frente a mí:
— Señor, me siento invadido por la angustia a causa de la visión, y me he quedado sin fuerzas. 17 ¿Cómo podrá tu siervo hablar contigo, Señor? Las fuerzas me han abandonado y casi no puedo respirar.
18 El que parecía un hombre me tocó y me devolvió las fuerzas. Después me dijo:
19 — No temas, pues eres muy apreciado. La paz sea contigo. Ahora sé fuerte y ten ánimo.
Mientras me hablaba, sentí que recuperaba las fuerzas y dije:
— Puedes hablar, Señor, pues me has devuelto las fuerzas.
20 Entonces me preguntó:
— ¿Sabes por qué he venido hasta ti? Pronto volveré a luchar contra el príncipe de Persia; cuando me vaya, llegará el príncipe de Grecia. 21 Pero antes te revelaré lo que está escrito en el Libro de la Verdad. No hay nadie que me ayude a luchar contra esos príncipes, salvo Miguel, vuestro Príncipe.

Vision of the Glorious Man
10 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose (A)name was called Belteshazzar. The message was true, [a]but the appointed time was long; and he understood the message, and had understanding of the vision. 2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three full weeks. 3 I ate no [b]pleasant food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
4 Now on the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, that is, the [c]Tigris, 5 I lifted my eyes and looked, and behold, a certain man clothed in (B)linen, whose waist was (C)girded with gold of Uphaz! 6 His body was like beryl, his face like the appearance of lightning, his eyes like torches of fire, his arms and feet like burnished bronze in color, (D)and the sound of his words like the voice of a multitude.
7 And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see the vision; but a great terror fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves. 8 Therefore I was left alone when I saw this great vision, and no strength remained in me; for my [d]vigor was turned to [e]frailty in me, and I retained no strength. 9 Yet I heard the sound of his words; and while I heard the sound of his words I was in a deep sleep on my face, with my face to the ground.
Prophecies Concerning Persia and Greece
10 (E)Suddenly, a hand touched me, which made me tremble on my knees and on the palms of my hands. 11 And he said to me, “O Daniel, (F)man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you.” While he was speaking this word to me, I stood trembling.
12 Then he said to me, (G)“Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, (H)your words were heard; and I have come because of your words. 13 (I)But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, (J)Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia. 14 Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people (K)in the latter days, (L)for the vision refers to many days yet to come.”
15 When he had spoken such words to me, (M)I [f]turned my face toward the ground and became speechless. 16 And suddenly, (N)one having the likeness of the [g]sons of men (O)touched my lips; then I opened my mouth and spoke, saying to him who stood before me, “My lord, because of the vision (P)my sorrows have [h]overwhelmed me, and I have retained no strength. 17 For how can this servant of my lord talk with you, my lord? As for me, no strength remains in me now, nor is any breath left in me.”
18 Then again, the one having the likeness of a man touched me and strengthened me. 19 (Q)And he said, “O man greatly beloved, (R)fear not! Peace be to you; be strong, yes, be strong!”
So when he spoke to me I was strengthened, and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
20 Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? And now I must return to fight (S)with the prince of Persia; and when I have gone forth, indeed the prince of Greece will come. 21 But I will tell you what is noted in the Scripture of Truth. (No one upholds me against these, (T)except Michael your prince.

Daniel’s Vision of a Man
10 In the third year of Cyrus(A) king of Persia, a revelation was given to Daniel (who was called Belteshazzar).(B) Its message was true(C) and it concerned a great war.[a] The understanding of the message came to him in a vision.
2 At that time I, Daniel, mourned(D) for three weeks. 3 I ate no choice food; no meat or wine touched my lips;(E) and I used no lotions at all until the three weeks were over.
4 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was standing on the bank(F) of the great river, the Tigris,(G) 5 I looked up(H) and there before me was a man dressed in linen,(I) with a belt of fine gold(J) from Uphaz around his waist. 6 His body was like topaz,(K) his face like lightning,(L) his eyes like flaming torches,(M) his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze,(N) and his voice(O) 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,(P) but such terror overwhelmed them that they fled and hid themselves. 8 So I was left alone,(Q) gazing at this great vision; I had no strength left,(R) my face turned deathly pale(S) and I was helpless.(T) 9 Then I heard him speaking, and as I listened to him, I fell into a deep sleep, my face to the ground.(U)
10 A hand touched me(V) and set me trembling on my hands and knees.(W) 11 He said, “Daniel, you who are highly esteemed,(X) consider carefully the words I am about to speak to you, and stand up,(Y) for I have now been sent to you.” And when he said this to me, I stood up trembling.
12 Then he continued, “Do not be afraid,(Z) Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble(AA) yourself before your God, your words(AB) were heard, and I have come in response to them.(AC) 13 But the prince(AD) of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days. Then Michael,(AE) one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was detained there with the king of Persia. 14 Now I have come to explain(AF) to you what will happen to your people in the future,(AG) for the vision concerns a time yet to come.(AH)”
15 While he was saying this to me, I bowed with my face toward the ground and was speechless.(AI) 16 Then one who looked like a man[b] touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and began to speak.(AJ) I said to the one standing before me, “I am overcome with anguish(AK) 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.”(AL)
18 Again the one who looked like a man touched(AM) me and gave me strength.(AN) 19 “Do not be afraid, you who are highly esteemed,”(AO) he said. “Peace!(AP) Be strong now; be strong.”(AQ)
When he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, “Speak, my lord, since you have given me strength.”(AR)
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(AS) will come; 21 but first I will tell you what is written in the Book of Truth.(AT) (No one supports me against them except Michael,(AU) your prince.
