Daniel 10:12-14

New Catholic Bible

¹² Then he continued, “Do not be afraid, Daniel, for from the first day that you resolved to gain understanding and to humble yourself before God, your prayer was heard. It is because of your resolve that I have come to you. ¹³ The prince of the kingdom of Persia thwarted me for twenty-one days, but finally Michael,^[a] one of the chief princes, came to help me. I left him there to confront the prince of the kingdom of Persia, ¹⁴ and I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the final days. For there is yet a further vision for those days.”
