In context
1 In the first year of Darius son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes,—who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans:
2 in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, perceived by the writings,—the number of the years, as to which the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah the prophet, to fulfil the desolations of Jerusalem, seventy years.
3 So I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek [him] by prayer, and supplication,—with fasting, and sackcloth and ashes;
4 yea I prayed unto Yahweh my God, and made confession,—and said—I beseech thee, O Lord, the GOD great and to be revered, keeping the covenant and the lovingkindness, to them who love him, and to them who keep his commandments.
