Daniel 9:21-23

American Standard Version

²¹ yea, while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, ^[a]being caused to fly swiftly, ^[b]touched me about the time of the evening oblation. ²² And he ^[c]instructed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee wisdom and understanding. ²³ At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment went forth, and I am come to tell thee; for thou art ^[d]greatly beloved: therefore consider the matter, and understand the vision.
