Daniel 9:3-7

New American Standard Bible

³ So I gave my ^[a]attention to the Lord God, to seek Him by prayer and pleading, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes. ⁴ I prayed to the Lord my God and confessed, and said, “Oh, Lord, the ^(A)great and awesome God, who ^(B)keeps His covenant and faithfulness for those who love Him and keep His commandments, ^5 (C)we have sinned, we have done wrong, and ^[b]acted wickedly and ^(D)rebelled, even ^(E)turning aside from Your commandments and ordinances. ⁶ Moreover, we have not ^(F)listened to Your servants the prophets, who spoke in Your name to our kings, our leaders, our fathers, and all the people of the land.

⁷ “^(G)Righteousness belongs to You, Lord, but to us ^[c](H)open shame, as it is this day—to the men of Judah, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and all Israel, those who are nearby and those who are far away in ^(I)all the countries to which You have driven them, because of their unfaithful deeds which they have committed against You.
