2 Chronicles 6:20-25

20that thine eyesH5869 may beH1961 openH6605 toward this houseH1004 dayH3119 and nightH3915, even toward the placeH4725 whereof thou hast saidH559 that thou wouldest putH7760 thy nameH8034 there; to hearken unto the prayerH8605 which thy servantH5650 shall prayH6419 toward this placeH4725. 21And hearken thou to the supplicationsH8469 of thy servantH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, whenH834 they shall prayH6419 toward this placeH4725: yea, hearH8085 thou from thy dwelling-place, even from heavenH8064; and whenH834 thou hearest, forgiveH5545.

22If a manH376 sinH2398 against his neighborH7453, and an oathH423 be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and he comeH935 and swear before thine altarH4196 in this houseH1004; 23then hearH8085 thou from heavenH8064, and do, and judgeH8199 thy servantsH5650, requiting the wickedH7563, to bringH7725 his wayH1870 upon his own headH7218; and justifyingH6663 the righteousH6662, to giveH5414 him according to his righteousnessH6666.

24And if thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 be smitten down before the enemyH341, because they have sinnedH2398 against thee, and shall turnH7725 again and confessH3034 thy nameH8034, and prayH6419 and make supplication before thee in this houseH1004; 25then hearH8085 thou from heavenH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and bringH7725 them again unto the landH127 which thou gavest to them and to their fathersH1.
