Daniel 9:3-5

Easy-to-Read Version

³ Then I turned to the Lord God. I prayed to him and asked him for help. I did not eat any food. I put ashes on my head and put on the clothes that showed I was sad. ⁴ I prayed to the Lord my God and told him about all my sins. I said,

“Lord, you are a great and awesome God. You keep your agreement of love and kindness with people who love you. You keep your agreement with the people who obey your commands.

⁵ “But we have sinned. We have done wrong. We have done evil things. We turned against you. We turned away from your commands and good decisions.
