Daniel 10:17

For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me. How can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? To avoid the tautology in the English version, join rather "this" with servant-`How can this servant of my lord (i:e., how can I who am so feeble) talk with this my lord (who is so majestic)?' Thus Daniel gives the reason why he is so overwhelmed with awe (Maurer).
