Daniel 9:7-15

7“1RighteousnessH6666 belongs to You, LordH136, but to us 2 3openH6440 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 4allH3605 the countriesH776 to whichH834 You have drivenH5080 them, because of their unfaithfulH4603 H4604 deedsH4604 whichH834 they have committedH4603 against You. 8 5OpenH6440 shameH1322 belongs to us, Lord, to our kingsH4428, our leadersH8269, and our fathersH1, becauseH834 we have sinnedH2398 against You. 9To the LordH136 our GodH430 belong 6compassionH7356 and forgivenessH5547, 7becauseH3588 we have 8rebelledH4775 against Him; 10and we have not obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LordH3068 our GodH430, to walkH1980 in His 9teachingsH8451 whichH834 He 10setH5414 beforeH6440 us throughH3027 His servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030. 11Indeed, 11allH3605 IsraelH3478 has violatedH5674 Your LawH8451 and turnedH5493 asideH5493, not obeyingH8085 Your voiceH6963; so the 12curseH423 has gushedH5413 forthH5413 on us, along with the oathH7621 whichH834 is writtenH3789 in the LawH8451 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of GodH430, becauseH3588 we have sinnedH2398 against Him. 12So He has 13confirmedH6965 His wordsH1697 whichH834 He had spokenH1696 againstH5921 us and againstH5921 our 14 15rulersH8199 whoH834 ruledH8199 us, to bringH935 on us greatH1419 disasterH7463; for underH8478 the entireH3605 heavenH8064 there has 16not been doneH6213 anything like whatH3512 was doneH6213 in JerusalemH3389. 13JustH3512 asH3512 it is writtenH3789 in the 17LawH8451 of MosesH4872, allH3605 thisH2088 disasterH7463 has comeH935 on us; yet we have 18not 19soughtH2470 the favorH6440 of the LordH3068 our GodH430 by 20turningH7725 from our wrongdoingH5771 and 21givingH7919 attentionH7919 to Your truthH571. 14So the LordH3068 has 22 23keptH8245 the disasterH7463 inH8245 storeH8245 and broughtH935 it on us; for the LordH3068 our GodH430 is 24righteousH6662 with respectH5921 to allH3605 His deedsH4639 whichH834 He has doneH6213, but we have not obeyedH8085 His voiceH6963.

15“And nowH6258, LordH136, our GodH430, You whoH834 25broughtH3318 Your peopleH5971 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 with a mightyH2389 handH3027 and 26madeH6213 a nameH8034 for Yourself, as it is thisH2088 dayH3117--we have sinnedH2398, we have beenH7561 wickedH7561.
