My God, turn your ear and hear. Open your eyes and see our desolations, and the city which is called by your name; for we do not present our petitions before you for our righteousness, but for your great mercies’ sake.

ગુજરાતીદાનિયેલ ૯:૧૮
હે મારા ઈશ્વર, કાન દઈને અમારી વિનંતી સાંભળો, તમારી આંખ ઉઘાડીને અમારા ઉપર નજર કરો. અમારો વિનાશ થયો છે; તમારા નામે ઓળખાતાં નગર તરફ જુઓ. અમે તમારી સહાય અમારા ન્યાયીપણાને લીધે નહિ, પણ તમારી મોટી દયાને કારણે માગીએ છીએ.

20While I was speaking, praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God for the holy mountain of my God—
