Seven times a day do I praise thee, Because of thy righteous ordinances.

And when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house (now his windows were open in his chamber toward Jerusalem) and he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.

Then answered they and said before the king, That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the interdict that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day.

And if he sin against thee seven times in the day, and seven times turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.
