Daniel 9
1
b In the first year of c Darius the son of Ahasuerus, by descent a d Mede, who was made king over the realm of the e Chaldeans -
2
in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, perceived in the books the number of years that, according to f the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the prophet, must pass before the end of the desolations of Jerusalem, namely, seventy years.
3
Then I turned my face to the Lord God, seeking him by g prayer and pleas for mercy with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
4
I prayed to the Lord my God and h made confession, saying, i "O Lord, the i great and awesome God, who j keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments,
5
k we have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly l and rebelled, turning aside from your commandments and rules.
6
m We have not listened to n your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to o our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7
To you, p O Lord, belongs righteousness, but to us open shame, as at this day, to the men of Judah, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, q those who are near and q those who are far away, in r all the lands to which you have driven them, because of s the treachery that they have committed against you.
8
To us, O Lord, belongs open shame, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because k we have sinned against you.
9
t To the Lord our God belong mercy and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him
10
m and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God by walking in his laws, which he set before us by n his servants the prophets.
11
u All Israel has transgressed your law and turned aside, v refusing to obey your voice. w And the curse and oath x that are written in the Law of y Moses the servant of God have been poured out upon us, because k we have sinned against him.
12
He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us and against z our rulers who ruled us, by a bringing upon us a great calamity. b For under the whole heaven there has not been done anything like what has been done against Jerusalem.
13
x 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, c turning from our iniquities and gaining insight by your truth.
14
d Therefore the Lord has kept ready the calamity and has brought it upon us, e for the Lord our God is righteous in all the works that he has done, and f we have not obeyed his voice.
15
And now, O Lord our God, who brought your people out of the land of Egypt g with a mighty hand, and h have made a name for yourself, as at this day, i we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16
"O Lord, j according to all your righteous acts, let your anger and your wrath turn away from your city Jerusalem, k your holy hill, l because for our sins, and for m the iniquities of our fathers, n Jerusalem and your people have become o a byword among all who are around us.
17
Now therefore, O our God, listen to the prayer of your servant and to his pleas for mercy, and for your own sake, O Lord, p make your face to shine upon q your sanctuary, which is desolate.
18
r O my God, incline your ear and hear. Open your eyes and see s our desolations, and t the city that is called by your name. For we do not present our pleas before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercy.
19
O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive. O Lord, pay attention and act. u Delay not, v for your own sake, O my God, because t your city and w your people are called by your name."
20
x While I was speaking and praying, confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my plea before the Lord my God for y the holy hill of my God,
21
while I was speaking in prayer, the man z Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the first, a came to me in swift flight at b the time of the evening sacrifice.
22
c He made me understand, speaking with me and saying, "O Daniel, I have now come out to give you d insight and understanding.
23
e At the beginning of your pleas for mercy a word went out, f and I have come to tell it to you, for g you are greatly loved. Therefore consider the word h and understand the vision.
24
i "Seventy weeks are decreed about your people and j your holy city, to finish k the transgression, to put an end to sin, l and to atone for iniquity, m to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal both vision and prophet, and n to anoint a most holy place.
25
o Know therefore and understand that p from the going out of the word to restore and q build Jerusalem to the coming of an r anointed one, a s prince, there shall be seven weeks. Then for sixty-two weeks it shall be built again with squares and moat, t but in a troubled time.
26
And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall u be cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come v shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. w Its end shall come with a flood, x and to the end there shall be war. y Desolations are decreed.
27
And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week he shall put an end to sacrifice and offering. z And on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until a the decreed end is poured out on the desolator."
