Daniel 9:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Daniel 9:17

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.

17 Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, ^aand ^bfor the Lord’s sake cause Your face to shine on² Your sanctuary, ^cwhich is desolate.

18 ^aO my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes ^band see our desolations, and the city ^cwhich is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies.

19 O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.”
