Daniel 9:6-8

International Children’s Bible

⁶ We did not listen to your servants, the prophets. They spoke for you to our kings, our leaders and our ancestors. They spoke to all the people of the land.

⁷ “Lord, you are good and right. But we are full of shame today. The people of Judah and Jerusalem and all the people of Israel are ashamed. People near and far whom you scattered among many nations are ashamed. We were not loyal to you. ⁸ Lord, we are all ashamed. Our kings and leaders and our fathers are ashamed. This is because we have sinned against you.
