Daniel 9:15-17

Good News Translation

^15 (A)“O Lord our God, you showed your power by bringing your people out of Egypt, and your power is still remembered. We have sinned; we have done wrong. ¹⁶ You have defended us in the past, so do not be angry with Jerusalem any longer. It is your city, your sacred hill.^[a] All the people in the neighboring countries look down on Jerusalem and on your people because of our sins and the evil our ancestors did. ^17 (B)O God, hear my prayer and pleading. Restore your Temple, which has been destroyed; restore it so that everyone will know that you are God.
