Daniel 9:14
The Lord watched - God's watching denotes the fit ways that he always takes to punish sinners.
12 And He has aconfirmed His words, which He spoke against us and against our judges who judged us, by bringing upon us a great disaster; bfor under the whole heaven such has never been done as what has been done to Jerusalem.
13 a“As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this disaster has come upon us; byet we have not made our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities and understand Your truth.
14 Therefore the Lord has akept the disaster in mind, and brought it upon us; for bthe Lord our God is righteous in all the works which He does, though we have not obeyed His voice.
15 And now, O Lord our God, awho brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and made Yourself ba name, as it is this day—we have sinned, we have done wickedly!
16 “O Lord, aaccording to all Your righteousness, I pray, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, bYour holy mountain; because for our sins, cand for the iniquities of our fathers, dJerusalem and Your people eare a reproach to all those around us.
