Daniel 9:3

9:3 So I turned my attention 1  to the Lord God 2  to implore him by prayer and requests, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes. 3 

1 tn Heb “face.”

2 tn The Hebrew phrase translated “Lord God” here is אֲדֹנָי הָאֱלֹהִים (’adonay ha’elohim).

3 sn When lamenting, ancient Israelites would fast, wear sackcloth, and put ashes on their heads to show their sorrow and contrition.
