Daniel 8:17-19
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
17 So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I became frightened and fell prostrate. But he said to me, ‘Understand, O mortal,[a] that the vision is for the time of the end.’
18 As he was speaking to me, I fell into a trance, face to the ground; then he touched me and set me on my feet. 19 He said, ‘Listen, and I will tell you what will take place later in the period of wrath; for it refers to the appointed time of the end.
