Daniel 9:18-19

Context
9:18 Listen attentively, 5  my God, and hear! Open your eyes and look on our desolated ruins 6  and the city called by your name. 7  For it is not because of our own righteous deeds that we are praying to you, 8  but because your compassion is abundant. 9:19 O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, pay attention, and act! Don’t delay, for your own sake, O my God! For your city and your people are called by your name.” 9
