Daniel 9:13-14

Context
9:13 Just as it is written in the law of Moses, so all this calamity has come on us. Still we have not tried to pacify 1  the LORD our God by turning back from our sin and by seeking wisdom 2  from your reliable moral standards. 3  9:14 The LORD was mindful of the calamity, and he brought it on us. For the LORD our God is just 4  in all he has done, 5  and we have not obeyed him. 6
