但以理为同胞祷告

玛代人亚哈随鲁的儿子大流士被立为迦勒底国的王元年, 即他统治的第一年,我但以理从经书上耶和华给耶利米先知的话得知,耶路撒冷必荒凉七十年。

我便禁食,身披麻衣,头蒙灰尘,向主上帝祷告祈求。 我向我的上帝耶和华祷告、认罪,说:“主啊,你是伟大而可畏的上帝,你向那些爱你、遵守你诫命的人信守你的慈爱之约。 我们犯罪作恶,行为邪恶叛逆,偏离你的诫命和典章, 没有听从你的仆人——众先知奉你的名向我们的君王、首领、先祖及国中百姓所说的话。 主啊,你是公义的,我们今日满面羞愧,我们犹大人和耶路撒冷的居民,以及因对你不忠而被驱散到远近各地的以色列人都满面羞愧。 主啊,我们和我们的君王、首领、先祖因得罪了你而满脸羞愧。 虽然我们背叛了主——我们的上帝,祂却有怜悯和饶恕之心。 10 我们没有听从我们的上帝耶和华的话,没有遵行祂借祂的仆人——众先知给我们颁布的律法。 11 以色列人都违背你的律法,偏离正道,不听从你的话。你仆人摩西的律法书上所记载的咒诅和审判都落在了我们身上,因为我们得罪了你。 12 你把大灾难降在我们身上,应验了你警告我们和我们官长的话。耶路撒冷遭遇的灾祸普天之下从未有过。 13 这一切灾祸降在了我们身上,正如摩西律法书的记载。然而,我们的上帝耶和华啊,我们却没有离开罪恶,认识你的真理,以便恳求你施恩。 14 所以耶和华决意使灾祸降在我们身上,因为我们的上帝耶和华的一切作为都是公义的,我们却没有听从祂的话。

15 “主——我们的上帝啊,你曾用大能的手把你的子民领出埃及,使自己威名远扬直到今日。我们却犯罪作恶。 16 主啊,你一向公义,求你不要向你的耶路撒冷城——你的圣山发烈怒。由于我们的罪恶和我们祖先的过犯,耶路撒冷和你的子民成了四围邻人嘲讽的对象。 17 我们的上帝啊,求你垂听仆人的祷告祈求,为你自己的缘故,笑颜垂顾你荒凉的圣所。 18 我的上帝啊,求你侧耳垂听,睁眼眷顾我们荒凉的土地和属于你名下的城。我们向你祈求,并非因为我们有什么义行,乃是因为你充满怜悯。 19 主啊,求你垂听!主啊,求你赦免!主啊,求你应允,立刻行动!我的上帝啊,为你自己的缘故,求你不要耽延,因为这城和这民都属于你的名下。”

加百列解释预言

20 我继续祷告,承认我和同胞以色列人的罪,为我上帝耶和华的圣山在祂面前祈求。 21 我正祷告的时候,先前在异象中看见的那位加百列奉命疾飞而来。那是献晚祭的时候。 22 他向我解释说:“但以理啊,我来是要使你有智慧和悟性。 23 你刚开始祈求,就已赐下答复,我是来告诉你的,因为你倍受眷爱。所以你要留意以下的信息,明白异象的意思。

24 “已经为你的同胞和圣城定了七十个七,以终结叛逆,除掉罪恶,赎尽过犯,带来永远的公义,封住异象和预言,膏抹至圣所[a] 25 你要知道,也要明白,从重建耶路撒冷的命令发出,到受膏的君王来临,其间有七个七加六十二个七。耶路撒冷城及其广场和壕沟必得重建,且是在艰难时期。 26 六十二个七之后,受膏者必被杀害,一无所有。另有一王要兴起,他的臣民要毁灭这城和圣所。结局必如洪水冲来,战争将持续到末了,到处一片荒凉——这已经注定。 27 那王必与许多人缔结一七之久的盟约。一七之半,他必终止祭牲和供物,并且设立带来毁灭的可憎之物,直到所定的结局临到这恶者。”

我便禁食,身披麻衣,頭蒙灰塵,向主上帝禱告祈求。 我向我的上帝耶和華禱告、認罪,說:「主啊,你是偉大而可畏的上帝,你向那些愛你、遵守你誡命的人信守你的慈愛之約。 我們犯罪作惡,行為邪惡叛逆,偏離你的誡命和典章, 沒有聽從你的僕人——眾先知奉你的名向我們的君王、首領、先祖及國中百姓所說的話。 主啊,你是公義的,我們今日滿面羞愧,我們猶大人和耶路撒冷的居民,以及因對你不忠而被驅散到遠近各地的以色列人都滿面羞愧。 主啊,我們和我們的君王、首領、先祖因得罪了你而滿臉羞愧。 雖然我們背叛了主——我們的上帝,祂卻有憐憫和饒恕之心。 10 我們沒有聽從我們的上帝耶和華的話,沒有遵行祂藉祂的僕人——眾先知給我們頒佈的律法。 11 以色列人都違背你的律法,偏離正道,不聽從你的話。你僕人摩西的律法書上所記載的咒詛和審判都落在了我們身上,因為我們得罪了你。 12 你把大災難降在我們身上,應驗了你警告我們和我們官長的話。耶路撒冷遭遇的災禍普天之下從未有過。 13 這一切災禍降在了我們身上,正如摩西律法書的記載。然而,我們的上帝耶和華啊,我們卻沒有離開罪惡,認識你的真理,以便懇求你施恩。 14 所以耶和華決意使災禍降在我們身上,因為我們的上帝耶和華的一切作為都是公義的,我們卻沒有聽從祂的話。

  1. 9·24 至聖所」或譯「至聖者」。

In the first year of Darius the son of Assuerus of the seed of the Medes, who reigned over the kingdom of the Chaldeans:

The first year of his reign, I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, concerning which the word of the Lord came to Jeremias the prophet, that seventy years should be accomplished of the desolation of Jerusalem.

And I set my face to the Lord my God, to pray and make supplication with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.

And I prayed to the Lord my God, and I made my confession, and said: I beseech thee, O Lord God, great and terrible, who keepest the covenant, and mercy to them that love thee, and keep thy commandments.

We have sinned, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly, and have revolted: and we have gone aside from thy commandments, and thy judgments.

We have not hearkened to thy servants the prophets, that have spoken in thy name to our kings, to our princes, to our fathers, and to all the people of the land.

To thee, O Lord, justice: but to us confusion of face, as at this day to the men of Juda, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel to them that are near, and to them that are far off in all the countries whither thou hast driven them, for their iniquities by which they have sinned against thee.

O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our princes, and to our fathers that have sinned.

But to thee, the Lord our God, mercy and forgiveness, for we have departed from thee:

10 And we have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his law, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.

11 And all Israel have transgressed thy law, and have turned away from hearing thy voice, and the malediction, and the curse, which is written in the book of Moses the servant of God, is fallen upon us, because we have sinned against him.

12 And he hath confirmed his words which he spoke against us, and against our princes that judged us, that he would bring in upon us a great evil, such as never was under all the heaven, according to that which hath been done in Jerusalem.

13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: and we entreated not thy face, O Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and think on thy truth.

14 And the Lord hath watched upon the evil, and hath brought it upon us: the Lord our God is just in all his works which he hath done: for we have not hearkened to his voice.

15 And now, O Lord our God, who hast brought forth thy people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thee a name as at this day: we have sinned, we have committed iniquity,

16 O Lord, against all thy justice: let thy wrath and thy indignation be turned away, I beseech thee, from thy city Jerusalem, and from thy holy mountain. For by reason of our sins, and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem, and thy people are a reproach to all that are round about us.

17 Now therefore, O our God, hear the supplication of thy servant, and his prayers: and shew thy face upon thy sanctuary which is desolate, for thy own sake.

18 Incline, O my God, thy ear, and hear: open thy eyes, and see our desolation, and the city upon which thy name is called: for it is not for our justifications that we present our prayers before thy face, but for the multitude of thy tender mercies.

19 O Lord, hear: O Lord, be appeased: hearken and do: delay not for thy own sake, O my God: because thy name is invocated upon thy city, and upon thy people.

20 Now while I was yet speaking, and praying, and confessing my sins, and the sins of my people of Israel, and presenting my supplications in the sight of my God, for the holy mountain of my God:

21 As I was yet speaking in prayer, behold the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, flying swiftly touched me at the time of the evening sacrifice.

22 And he instructed me, and spoke to me, and said: O Daniel, I am now come forth to teach thee, and that thou mightest understand.

23 From the beginning of thy prayers the word came forth: and I am come to shew it to thee, because thou art a man of desires: therefore do thou mark the word, and understand the vision.

24 Seventy weeks are shortened upon thy people, and upon thy holy city, that transgression may be finished, and sin may have an end, and iniquity may be abolished; and everlasting justice may be brought; and vision and prophecy may be fulfilled; and the saint of saints may be anointed.

25 Know thou therefore, and take notice: that from the going forth of the word, to build up Jerusalem again, unto Christ the prince, there shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks: and the street shall be built again, and the walls in straitness of times.

26 And after sixty-two weeks Christ shall be slain: and the people that shall deny him shall not be his. And a people with their leader that shall come, shall destroy the city and the sanctuary: and the end thereof shall be waste, and after the end of the war the appointed desolation.

27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many, in one week: and in the half of the week the victim and the sacrifice shall fall: and there shall be in the temple the abomination of desolation: and the desolation shall continue even to the consummation, and to the end.
