Exegesis
The verse opens with a series of first person markers va'ani {וַאֲנִי | wa-ʾănî} “and I” followed by Nifal perfect verbs nisharti {נִשְׁאַ֣רְתִּי | niš-ʾārtî} and nish'arbi {נִשְׁאַר־בִּ֖י | niš-ʾar-bî} to frame Daniel’s isolation and physical depletion.
In context — Daniel 10:8
I was left alone, and I saw this great vision ; no strength remained in me, my radiance turned to destruction, and I retained no strength.
