Daniel’s Prayer for the People
1 In the first year aof Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the lineage of the Medes, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans—
2 in the first year of his reign I, Daniel, understood by the books the number of the years specified by the word of the Lord through aJeremiah the prophet, that He would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.
3 aThen I set my face toward the Lord God to make request by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes.
