Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard: and I am come for thy words’ sake.

Then he said to me, Have no fear, Daniel; for from the first day when you gave your heart to getting wisdom and making yourself poor in spirit before your God, your words have come to his ears: and I have come because of your words.

Και ειπε προς εμε, Μη φοβου, Δανιηλ· διοτι απο της πρωτης ημερας, καθ' ην εδωκας την καρδιαν σου εις το να εννοης και κακουχησαι ενωπιον του Θεου σου, εισηκουσθησαν οι λογοι σου και εγω ηλθον εις τους λογους σου.

Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
