Daniel 9:3-7

3So I gaveH5414 my 1attentionH6440 to the LordH136 GodH430, to seekH1245 Him by prayerH8605 and pleadingH8469, with fastingH6685, sackclothH8242, and ashesH665. 4I prayedH6419 to the LordH3068 my GodH430 and confessedH3034, and saidH559, “OhH577, LordH136, the 2greatH1419 and awesomeH3372 GodH410, who 3keepsH8104 His covenantH1285 and faithfulnessH2617 for those who loveH157 Him and keepH8104 His commandmentsH4687, 54we have sinnedH2398, we have doneH5753 wrongH5753, and 5actedH7561 wickedlyH7561 and 6rebelledH4775, even 7turningH5493 asideH5493 from Your commandmentsH4687 and ordinancesH4941. 6Moreover, we have not 8listenedH8085 to Your servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, whoH834 spokeH1696 in Your nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our leadersH8269, our fathersH1, and allH3605 the peopleH5971 of the landH776.

7“9RighteousnessH6666 belongs to You, LordH136, but to us 1011openH6440 shameH1322, as it is thisH2088 dayH3117--to the menH376 of JudahH3063, the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and allH3605 IsraelH3478, those who are nearbyH7138 and those who are farH7350 away in 12allH3605 the countriesH776 to whichH834 You have drivenH5080 them, because of their unfaithfulH4603H4604 deedsH4604 whichH834 they have committedH4603 against You.
