Daniel 10:14-18
New American Standard Bible
15When he had spoken to me according to these words, I turned my face toward the ground and became speechless.
16And behold, one who resembled a human was touching my lips. Then I opened my mouth and spoke and said to him who was standing before me, 'My lord, due to the vision anguish has come upon me, and I have retained no strength.
17For how can such a servant of my lord talk with such as my lord? As for me, there remains just now no strength in me, nor has any breath been left in me.'
King James Version
15And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.
16And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.
17For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
18Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,
Christian Standard Bible
15While he was saying these words to me, I turned my face toward the ground and was speechless.
16Suddenly one with human likeness touched my lips. I opened my mouth and said to the one standing in front of me, "My lord, because of the vision, anguish overwhelms me and I am powerless.
17How can someone like me, your servant, speak with someone like you, my lord? Now I have no strength, and there is no breath in me."
New Living Translation
15While he was speaking to me, I looked down at the ground, unable to say a word.
16Then the one who looked like a man touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and began to speak. I said to the one standing in front of me, 'I am filled with anguish because of the vision I have seen, my lord, and I am very weak.
17How can someone like me, your servant, talk to you, my lord? My strength is gone, and I can hardly breathe.'
English Standard Version

16And behold, one in the likeness of the children of man touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth and spoke. I said to him who stood before me, "O my lord, by reason of the vision pains have come upon me, and I retain no strength.
17How can my lord 's servant talk with my lord? For now no strength remains in me, and no breath is left in me."
New International Version

16Then one who looked like a man touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and began to speak. I said to the one standing before me, "I am overcome with anguish because of the vision, my lord, and I feel very weak.
