⁷ I, Daniel, was the only person who saw the vision. The men with me did not see it, because ·they were so frightened [^Lgreat trembling fell on them] that they ·ran away [fled] and hid. ⁸ So I was left alone, watching this great vision. ·I lost my strength [^LNo strength was left in me], my ·face turned white like a dead person [^Lsplendor was spoiled], and I ·was helpless [^Lretained no strength]. ⁹ Then I heard the ·man in the vision speaking [^Lsound of his words]. As I ·listened [^Lheard the sound of his words], I fell into a ·deep sleep [trance] with my face on the ground.
