Daniel 9:14-16

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁴ So you were ready to punish us with this trouble. You are always right in everything that you do. You are right to punish us because we have not obeyed you.

¹⁵ Our Lord God, you used your great power to bring your people safely out of Egypt. You are still famous today because of what you did then. We know that we have done things that are wrong and wicked. ¹⁶ Our Lord, please stop being angry with us. Stop punishing your own city, Jerusalem, your holy mountain. Because of our sins and the evil things that our ancestors did, other people insult us. All the people who live near us laugh at Jerusalem and your people. So please do what is right, as you always do.
