Daniel 8:16-18

Living Bible

¹⁶ and I heard a man’s voice calling from across the river, “Gabriel, tell Daniel the meaning of his dream.”

¹⁷ So Gabriel started toward me. But as he approached, I was too frightened to stand and fell down with my face to the ground. “Son of man,” he said, “you must understand that the events you have seen in your vision will not take place until the end times come.”

¹⁸ Then I fainted, lying face downward on the ground. But he roused me with a touch and helped me to my feet.
