* Daniel 8:2 – "I had a second vision in which I was in Susa, the chief city of Babylonia`s Elam province. I was beside the Ulai river..." (Contemporary English Version)
* Daniel 8:16 – "And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision."
