Then he said to me, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel; for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. I have come for your words’ sake.

“As in the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things.”

“Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.

Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them.

I know also, my God, that you try the heart, and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things. Now I have seen with joy your people, who are present here, offer willingly to you.

Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.
