Daniel 9:20-23

LEB(i) 20 Now I was still speaking and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my plea before* Yahweh my God, on behalf of the holy mountain of my God.* 21 And I was still speaking in prayer, and the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision previously,* in my weariness touched me* at the time of the evening offering. 22 And he instructed me and he spoke with me and he said, "Daniel I have now come out* to teach you understanding. 23 At the beginning of your pleas for mercy, a word went out, and now I have come to declare* it, for you are highly esteemed, and so consider the word and understand the vision.
