Matthew 17:7

Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,

Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.

But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.

And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.

And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
