Daniel 9:2-6

2In the firstH259 yearH8141 of his reignH4427 I DanielH1840 understoodH995 by booksH5612 the numberH4557 of the yearsH8141, whereof the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 came to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, that he would accomplishH4390 seventyH7657 yearsH8141 in the desolationsH2723 of JerusalemH3389.

3And I setH5414 my faceH6440 unto the LordH136 GodH430, to seekH1245 by prayerH8605 and supplicationsH8469, with fastingH6685, and sackclothH8242, and ashesH665: 4And I prayedH6419 unto YhwhH3068 my GodH430, and made my confessionH3034, and saidH559, OH577 LordH136, the greatH1419 and dreadfulH3372 GodH410, keepingH8104 the covenantH1285 and mercyH2617 to them that loveH157 him, and to them that keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687; 5We have sinnedH2398, and have committed iniquityH5753, and have done wickedlyH7561, and have rebelledH4775, even by departingH5493 from thy preceptsH4687 and from thy judgmentsH4941: 6Neither have we hearkenedH8085 unto thy servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, which spakeH1696 in thy nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, and our fathersH1, and to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
