Daniel 9:6-8

New Century Version

⁶ We did not listen to your servants, the prophets, who spoke for you to our kings, our leaders, our ancestors, and 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, all the people of Israel, those near and far whom you scattered among many nations because they were not loyal to you. ⁸ Lord, we are all ashamed. Our kings and leaders and our fathers are ashamed, because we have sinned against you.
