1 Kings 8:46-53
46If they have sinnedH2398 against thee, (for there is no manH120 that sinneth not,) and thou be angryH599 with them, and giveH5414 them up to the enemyH341, and they have carried them away captivesH7617 unto the enemy's landH776, farH7350 or near;
47and if they shall take it to heartH3820 in the landH776 whither they were carried captiveH7617, and repent, and make supplication unto thee in the landH776 of them that carried them captiveH7617, sayingH559, We have sinnedH2398, and have done iniquity, we have dealt perversely;
48and if they returnH7725 unto thee with all their heartH3824 and with all their soulH5315, in the landH776 of their enemiesH341 who led them awayH7725 captiveH7617, and prayH6419 unto thee toward their landH776 which thou gavest unto their fathersH1, the cityH5892 that thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 that I have builtH1129 unto thy nameH8034;
49then hearH8085 thou in the heavensH8064, the settled placeH4349 of thy dwellingH3427, their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467, and maintain their rightH4941;
50and forgiveH5545 thy peopleH5971 their sinH2398 against thee, and all their transgressionsH6588 whereby they have transgressedH6586 against thee, and giveH5414 them to find compassionH7355 with 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) —
52thine eyesH5869 being openH6605 unto the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and unto the supplicationH8467 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, to hearken unto them in all that they callH7121 for unto thee.
53For thou hast separatedH914 them from among all peoplesH5971 of the earthH776, to be thine inheritanceH5159, as thou spokest through MosesH4872 thy servantH5650, when thou broughtest our fathersH1 out of EgyptH4714, O LordH136 Jehovah.
