TSK · Daniel 9:19

Please forgive the iniquity of this people according to your great loyal love, just as you have forgiven this people from Egypt even until now.”

Respond to the requests of your servant and your people Israel for this place. Hear from your heavenly dwelling place and respond favorably and forgive.

then listen from your heavenly dwelling place to their prayers for help, vindicate them, and forgive your sinful people.

We do not see any signs of God’s presence; there are no longer any prophets and we have no one to tell us how long this will last.

Do not hold us accountable for the sins of earlier generations! Quickly send your compassion our way, for we are in serious trouble!

Will you stay mad at us forever? Will you remain angry throughout future generations?

Not to us, O LORD, not to us! But to your name bring honor, for the sake of your loyal love and faithfulness.

For you are our father, though Abraham does not know us and Israel does not recognize us. You, LORD, are our father; you have been called our protector from ancient times.

LORD, do not be too angry! Do not hold our sins against us continually! Take a good look at your people, at all of us!

Why should you be like someone who is helpless, like a champion who cannot save anyone? You are indeed with us, and we belong to you. Do not abandon us!”

For take note, I am already beginning to bring disaster on the city that I call my own. So how can you possibly avoid being punished? You will not go unpunished! For I am proclaiming war against all who live on the earth. I, the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, affirm it!’

I acted for the sake of my reputation, so that I would not be profaned before the nations in whose sight I had brought them out.

“Therefore say to the house of Israel,‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: It is not for your sake that I am about to act, O house of Israel, but for the sake of my holy reputation which you profaned among the nations where you went.

Listen attentively, my God, and hear! Open your eyes and look on our desolated ruins and the city called by your name. For it is not because of our own righteous deeds that we are praying to you, but because your compassion is abundant.

I tell you, even though the man inside will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of the first man’s sheer persistence he will get up and give him whatever he needs.

so that we, who were the first to set our hope on Christ, would be to the praise of his glory.
