1 Kings 8:50-53

50and forgiveH5545 thy peopleH5971 who have sinnedH2398 against thee, and all their transgressionsH6588 wherein they have transgressedH6586 against thee; and giveH5414 them compassionH7355 before those who carried them captiveH7617, that they may have compassionH7355 on them 51(for they are thy peopleH5971, and thine inheritanceH5159, which thou broughtest forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714, from the midstH8432 of the furnaceH3564 of ironH1270); 52that thine eyesH5869 may beH1961 openH6605 unto the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and unto the supplicationH8467 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, to hearken unto them whensoever they cry unto thee. 53For thou didst separateH914 them from among all the peoplesH5971 of the earthH776, to be thine inheritanceH5159, as thou spakest by MosesH4872 thy servantH5650, when thou broughtest our fathersH1 out of EgyptH4714, O LordH136 Jehovah.
