29
While I was speaking these words, the angel who had come to me at first came to me, and when he saw me
30
lying there like a corpse, deprived of my understanding, he grasped my right hand and strengthened me and set me on my feet, and said to me,
31
"What is the matter with you? And why are you troubled? And why are your understanding and the thoughts of your mind troubled?"
32
I said, "It was because you abandoned me. I did as you directed, and went out into the field, and lo, what I have seen and can still see, I am unable to explain."
33
He said to me, "Stand up like a man, and I will instruct you."
