Daniel prophet prayer . Bible Daniel 9 . How to pray

in the first year of Darius son of Circe's a mead by descent who was made ruler for the Babylonian Kingdom in the first year of his

 reign I Daniel understood from the scriptures according to the word of the Lord given to jeremiah the prophet that the desolation of Jerusalem would last 17 years so I turned to the Lord God and pleaded with

 him in prayer and petition in fasting and in sackcloth and ashes I pray to the Lord my God and confessed Lord the Great and awesome God who keeps his covenant of love with those who love him and keep his

 Commandments we have sinned and done wrong we have been wicked and have rebelled we have turned away from your commands and laws we have not listened to your servants the prophets who spoke in your name to our Kings our Prince's and our

 ancestors and to all the people of the land Lord you are righteous but this day we are covered with shame the people of Judah and Jerusalem and all Israel both near and far in all the countries where you have scattered

 us because of our unfaithfulness to you we and our Kings our Prince's and our ancestors are covered with shame Lord because we

 have sinned against you the Lord our God is merciful and forgiving even though we have rebelled against him we have not obeyed the Lord our God or kept the laws he gave us through his servants the prophets all Israel has transgressed your law and turned away refusing to obey you therefore the curses

 and sworn judgments written in the law of Moses the servant of God have been poured out on us because we have sinned against you have fulfilled the words spoken against us and against our rulers by bringing on us

 great disaster under the whole heaven

 nothing has ever been done like what has been done to Jerusalem just as it is written in the law of Moses all this disaster has come on us yet we have not sought the favor of the Lord our God by turning from our sins and giving attention to your truth the Lord did

 not hesitate to bring the disaster on us for the Lord our God is righteous in everything he does yet we have not obeyed him now Lord our God who brought your people out of Egypt with a mighty hand and who made

 for yourself a name that endures to this day we have sinned we have done wrong Lord in keeping with all your righteous acts turn away your anger and your wrath from Jerusalem your city your holy hill our sins

 and the iniquities of our ancestors have made Jerusalem and your people an object of scorn to all those around us here the prayers and petitions of your servant for your sake Lord look with favor on your desolate sanctuary give ear our garden here

 open your eyes and see the desolation of the city that bears your name we do not make requests of you because we are righteous but because of your great mercy Lord listen Lord forgive Lord here and for your sake by God

 do not delay because you see and your people bear your name and pray confessing my sin in the sin of my people Israel and making my request to the Lord my God for his holy hill while I was still in prayer Gabriel the man I had seen in the earlier vision came to me in Swift flight about the time of the evening sacrifice he instructed

 me and said to me Daniel I have now come to give you insight and understanding as soon as you began to pray a word went out

 which I have come to tell you for you are highly esteemed therefore consider the word and understand the vision seventy sevens are decreed for your people in your holy city

 to finish transgression and to put an end to sin to atone for wickedness to bring in everlasting righteousness to seal up vision

 and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place know and understand this from the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One the ruler comes there will be seven seventy and

 sixty-two sevens it will be rebuilt with streets and a trench but in times of trouble after the sixty-two sevens The Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing the people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary the end will come like a flood war will continue until

 the end and desolations have been decreed he will confirm a covenant with many for one seven in the middle of the seven he will put an end to sacrifice and offering and at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation until the end that is decreed is poured out on him 

God bless you
