Daniel 9:9-16
English Standard Version
9 (A)To the Lord our God belong mercy and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him 10 (B)and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God by walking in his laws, which he set before us by (C)his servants the prophets. 11 (D)All Israel has transgressed your law and turned aside, (E)refusing to obey your voice. (F)And the curse and oath (G)that are written in the Law of (H)Moses the servant of God have been poured out upon us, because (I)we have sinned against him. 12 He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us and against (J)our rulers who ruled us,[a] by (K)bringing upon us a great calamity. (L)For under the whole heaven there has not been done anything like what has been done against Jerusalem. 13 (M)As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this calamity has come upon us; yet we have not entreated the favor of the Lord our God, (N)turning from our iniquities and gaining insight by your truth. 14 (O)Therefore the Lord has kept ready the calamity and has brought it upon us, (P)for the Lord our God is righteous in all the works that he has done, and (Q)we have not obeyed his voice. 15 And now, O Lord our God, who brought your people out of the land of Egypt (R)with a mighty hand, and (S)have made a name for yourself, as at this day, (T)we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 “O Lord, (U)according to all your righteous acts, let your anger and your wrath turn away from your city Jerusalem, (V)your holy hill, (W)because for our sins, and for (X)the iniquities of our fathers, (Y)Jerusalem and your people have become (Z)a byword among all who are around us.
