Daniel 9
In
the
first
year
of
a
Darius
the
son
of
Ahasuerus,
of
the
seed
of
the
Medes,
which
was
made
king
over
the
realm
of
the
Chaldeans;
2 In
the
first
year
of
his
reign
I
Daniel
understood
by
books
the
number
of
the
years,
whereof
the
word
of
the
Lord
came
to
Jeremiah
the
prophet,
that
he
would
accomplish
a
seventy
years
in
the
b
desolations
of
Jerusalem.
3 And
I
set
my
face
unto
the
Lord
God,
to
a
seek
by
prayer
and
supplications,
with
fasting,
and
b
sackcloth,
and
ashes:
4 And
I
prayed
unto
the
Lord
my
God,
and
made
my
a
confession,
and
said,
O
Lord,
the
great
and
dreadful
God,
b
keeping
the
covenant
and
c
mercy
to
them
that
love
him,
and
to
them
that
keep
his
commandments;
5 We
have
a
sinned,
and
have
committed
iniquity,
and
have
done
wickedly,
and
have
rebelled,
even
by
departing
from
thy
precepts
and
from
thy
judgments:
6 Neither
have
we
a
hearkened
unto
thy
servants
the
prophets,
which
spake
in
thy
name
to
our
kings,
our
princes,
and
our
fathers,
and
to
all
the
people
of
the
land.
7 O
Lord,
a
righteousness
belongeth
unto
thee,
but
unto
us
b
confusion
of
faces,
as
at
this
day;
to
the
men
of
Judah,
and
to
the
inhabitants
of
Jerusalem,
and
unto
all
Israel,
that
are
near,
and
that
are
far
off,
through
all
the
countries
whither
thou
hast
driven
them,
because
of
their
trespass
that
they
have
trespassed
against
thee.
8 O
Lord,
to
us
belongeth
confusion
of
face,
to
our
kings,
to
our
princes,
and
to
our
fathers,
because
we
have
sinned
against
thee.
9 To
the
Lord
our
God
belong
mercies
and
a
forgivenesses,
though
we
have
b
rebelled
against
him;
10 Neither
have
we
obeyed
the
voice
of
the
Lord
our
God,
to
a
walk
in
his
laws,
which
he
set
before
us
by
his
servants
the
prophets.
11 Yea,
all
Israel
have
transgressed
thy
law,
even
by
departing,
that
they
might
not
a
obey
thy
voice;
therefore
the
b
curse
is
poured
upon
us,
and
the
oath
that
is
written
in
the
law
of
Moses
the
servant
of
God,
because
we
have
sinned
against
him.
12 And
he
hath
confirmed
his
words,
which
he
spake
against
us,
and
against
our
judges
that
judged
us,
by
bringing
upon
us
a
great
a
evil:
for
under
the
whole
heaven
hath
not
been
b
done
as
hath
been
done
upon
Jerusalem.
13 As
it
is
written
in
the
a
law
of
Moses,
all
this
evil
is
come
upon
us:
yet
made
we
not
our
prayer
before
the
Lord
our
God,
that
we
might
turn
from
our
iniquities,
and
understand
thy
truth.
14 Therefore
hath
the
Lord
watched
upon
the
a
evil,
and
brought
it
upon
us:
for
the
Lord
our
God
is
righteous
in
all
his
works
which
he
doeth:
for
we
b
obeyed
not
his
voice.
15 And
now,
O
Lord
our
God,
that
hast
brought
thy
people
forth
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt
with
a
mighty
hand,
and
hast
gotten
thee
renown,
as
at
this
day;
we
have
sinned,
we
have
done
wickedly.
16 O
Lord,
according
to
all
thy
a
righteousness,
I
beseech
thee,
let
thine
anger
and
thy
fury
be
turned
away
from
thy
city
Jerusalem,
thy
holy
b
mountain:
because
for
our
sins,
and
for
the
iniquities
of
our
fathers,
Jerusalem
and
thy
people
are
become
a
c
reproach
to
all
that
are
about
us.
17 Now
therefore,
O
our
God,
hear
the
prayer
of
thy
servant,
and
his
supplications,
and
cause
thy
face
to
a
shine
upon
thy
sanctuary
that
is
desolate,
for
the
Lord's
sake.
18 O
my
God,
incline
thine
ear,
and
hear;
open
thine
eyes,
and
behold
our
desolations,
and
the
city
which
is
called
by
thy
name:
for
we
do
not
present
our
supplications
before
thee
for
our
righteousnesses,
but
for
thy
great
mercies.
19 O
Lord,
hear;
O
Lord,
forgive;
O
Lord,
hearken
and
do;
defer
not,
for
thine
own
sake,
O
my
God:
for
thy
city
and
thy
people
are
called
by
thy
name.
20 And
whiles
I
was
speaking,
and
praying,
and
confessing
my
sin
and
the
sin
of
my
people
Israel,
and
presenting
my
supplication
before
the
Lord
my
God
for
the
holy
mountain
of
my
God;
21 Yea,
whiles
I
was
speaking
in
prayer,
even
the
man
a
Gabriel,
whom
I
had
seen
in
the
vision
at
the
beginning,
being
caused
to
fly
swiftly,
b
touched
me
about
the
time
of
the
c
evening
oblation.
22 And
he
informed
me,
and
talked
with
me,
and
said,
O
a
Daniel,
I
am
now
come
forth
to
give
thee
skill
and
understanding.
23 At
the
beginning
of
thy
supplications
the
commandment
came
forth,
and
I
am
come
to
shew
thee;
for
thou
art
greatly
beloved:
therefore
understand
the
matter,
and
consider
the
vision.
24 Seventy
weeks
are
determined
upon
thy
people
and
upon
thy
holy
city,
to
finish
the
transgression,
and
to
make
an
end
of
sins,
and
to
make
a
reconciliation
for
iniquity,
and
to
bring
in
everlasting
righteousness,
and
to
seal
up
the
vision
and
prophecy,
and
to
anoint
the
most
Holy.
25 Know
therefore
and
understand,
that
from
the
going
forth
of
the
commandment
to
restore
and
to
build
Jerusalem
unto
the
Messiah
the
Prince
shall
be
seven
weeks,
and
threescore
and
two
weeks:
the
street
shall
be
built
again,
and
the
a
wall,
even
in
troublous
times.
26 And
after
threescore
and
two
weeks
shall
a
Messiah
be
cut
off,
but
not
for
himself:
and
the
people
of
the
prince
that
shall
come
shall
b
destroy
the
city
and
the
sanctuary;
and
the
end
thereof
shall
be
with
a
flood,
and
unto
the
end
of
the
war
desolations
are
determined.
27 And
he
shall
confirm
the
covenant
with
many
for
one
week:
and
in
the
midst
of
the
week
he
shall
cause
the
sacrifice
and
the
oblation
to
cease,
and
for
the
overspreading
of
a
abominations
he
shall
make
it
b
desolate,
even
until
the
c
consummation,
and
that
determined
shall
be
poured
upon
the
desolate.
