How can I, your servant, talk with you, my lord? My strength is gone and I can hardly breathe.”

How can my lord’s servant talk with my lord? For now no strength remains in me, and no breath is left in me.”

How can someone like me, your servant, talk to you, my lord? My strength is gone, and I can hardly breathe.”

How can someone like me,  your servant,  speak with someone like you, my lord? Now I have no strength, and there is no breath in me.”

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.

For how can this servant of my lord talk with you, my lord? As for me, no strength remains in me now, nor is any breath left in me.”

“While he was saying all this, I looked at the ground and said nothing. Then I was surprised by something like a human hand that touched my lips. I opened my mouth and started talking to the messenger: ‘When I saw you, master, I was terror-stricken. My knees turned to water. I couldn’t move. How can I, a lowly servant, speak to you, my master? I’m paralyzed. I can hardly breathe!’

For how can such a servant of my lord talk with such as my lord? As for me, there remains just now no strength in me, nor has any breath been left in me.”

For how can such a [weakened] servant of my lord talk with such [a being] as my lord? For now there remains no strength in me, nor has any breath been left in me.”

How, sir, am I able to speak with you? My strength is gone, and I am breathless.”
