Daniel 8:17

8:17 So he approached the place where I was standing. As he came, I felt terrified and fell flat on the ground. ¹  Then he said to me, “Understand, son of man, ²  that the vision pertains to the time of the end.”

Daniel 8:26

8:26 The vision of the evenings and mornings that was told to you is correct. ³  But you should seal up the vision, for it refers to a time many days from now.”

Daniel 8:13

8:13 Then I heard a holy one ⁴  speaking. Another holy one said to the one who was speaking, “To what period of time does the vision pertain – this vision concerning the daily sacrifice and the destructive act of rebellion and the giving over of both the sanctuary and army to be trampled?”
