Daniel 9:2New Messianic Version BibleIn the first year of his reign I Dani’el [God is Judge] understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) came to Yirmeyahu [whom Yehovah has appointed] the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. See the chapter |
Now in the first year of Koresh (Cyrus) [possess you the furnace] king of Paras (Persia) [pure or splendid], that the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) by the mouth of Yirmeyahu [whom Yehovah has appointed] might be fulfilled, the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) stirred up the spirit of Koresh (Cyrus) [possess you the furnace] king of Paras (Persia) [pure or splendid], that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and [put it] also in writing, saying,
Mikhay’hu [Who is Like God?] from Moreshet [possession of Gat (wine-vat)] prophesied in the days of Hizkiyahu [Yehovah is my strength] king of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], and spoke to all the people of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], saying, Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; Tziyon [parched place] shall be plowed [like] a field, and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.
Then the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) answered and said, O Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies], how long will youi not have mercy on Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] and on the cities of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], against which youi have had indignation these threescore and ten years?
