Exegesis
The contrastive clause ve’lo chilinu {וְלֹא־חִלִּינוּ | wə-lōʾ-ḥil-lî-nû} ‘and we have not entreated’ employs the Piel for intensity, followed by et-penei YHWH Eloheinu {אֶת־פְּנֵי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ | ʾet-pə-nê Yə-hō-wāh ʾĕ-lō-hê-nû} ‘the face of the LORD our God.’
In context — Daniel 9:13
As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this evil has come upon us; yet we have not entreated the face of the LORD our God to turn from our iniquities and to gain insight by Your truth.
