kjv Daniel:9:11-19 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Yea ,
all Israel have transgressed thy law ,
even by departing ,
that they might not obey thy voice ;
therefore the 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 .
*
And he hath confirmed his words ,
which he spake against us ,
and against our judges that judged us ,
by bringing upon us a great evil :
for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem .
*
As it is written in the 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 .
*
Therefore hath the LORD watched upon the evil ,
and brought it upon us :
for the LORD our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth :
for we obeyed not his voice .
*
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 .
*
O Lord ,
according to all thy righteousness ,
I beseech thee ,
let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem ,
thy holy mountain :
because for our sins ,
and for the iniquities of our fathers ,
Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us .
*
Now therefore ,
O our God ,
hear the prayer of thy servant ,
and his supplications ,
and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate ,
for the Lord '
s sake .
*
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 .
*
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 .
