Daniel

O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.

Howbeit thou art just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly:

And the anger of the Lord was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curses that are written in this book:

Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read:

Whereupon the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, The Lord is righteous.
