2 Chronicles 6:12-42

12And he stoodH5975 before the altarH4196 of Jehovah in the presenceH6440 of the whole congregation of IsraelH3478, and spreadH6566 forth his handsH3709. 13For SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 a platform of bronzeH5178, fiveH2568 cubitsH520 long, and fiveH2568 cubitsH520 broad, and threeH7969 cubitsH520 high, and had setH5414 it in the midstH8432 of the court; and upon it he stoodH5975, and he kneeled down on his knees before the whole congregation of IsraelH3478, and spreadH6566 forth his handsH3709 toward the heavensH8064, 14and saidH559, Jehovah, 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478! there is no 2GodH430 like thee, in the heavensH8064 or on the earthH776, who keepest covenantH1285 and mercy with thy servantsH5650 that walkH1980 before thee with all their heartH3820; 15who hast keptH8104 with thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 that which thou didst promise him; thou spokest with thy mouthH6310, and hast fulfilled [it] with thy handH3027 as at this dayH3117. 16And nowH6258, Jehovah, 3GodH430 of IsraelH3478, keepH8104 with thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 that which thou hast promised him sayingH559, There shall not fail thee a manH376 in my sight to sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478, if onlyH7535 thy sonsH1121 takeH8104 heedH8104 to their wayH1870 to walkH1980 in my lawH8451, as thou hast walkedH1980 before me. 17And nowH6258, Jehovah, 4GodH430 of IsraelH3478, let thy wordH1697 be verified which thou hast spokenH1696 unto thy servantH5650 DavidH1732. 18But will 5GodH430 indeed dwellH3427 with manH120 on the earthH776? behold, the heavensH8064 and the heavenH8064 of heavensH8064 cannot containH3557 thee; how much less this houseH1004 which I have builtH1129! 19Yet have respect unto the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and to his supplicationH8467, Jehovah, my 6GodH430, to hearken unto the cryH7440 and to the prayerH8605 which thy servantH5650 prayeth before thee; 20that thine eyesH5869 may beH1961 openH6605 upon this houseH1004 dayH3119 and nightH3915, upon the placeH4725 in which thou hast saidH559 thou wouldest putH7760 thy nameH8034: to hearken unto the prayerH8605 which thy servantH5650 prayeth toward this placeH4725. 21And hearken unto the supplicationsH8469 of thy servantH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, which they shall prayH6419 toward this placeH4725, and hearH8085 thou from thy dwelling-place, from the heavensH8064, and whenH834 thou hearest, forgiveH5545. 22If a manH376 have sinnedH2398 against his neighbour, and an oathH423 be laid upon him to adjure him, and the oathH423 comeH935 before thine altarH4196 in this houseH1004; 23then hearH8085 thou from the heavensH8064, and do, and judgeH8199 thy servantsH5650, requiting the wickedH7563, to bringH7725 his wayH1870 upon his own headH7218; and justifyingH6663 the righteousH6662, givingH5414 him according to his righteousnessH6666. 24And if thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 be put to the worse 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 the heavensH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and bringH7725 them again unto the landH127 that thou gavest to them and to their fathersH1. 26When the heavensH8064 are shutH6113 up, and there is no rainH4306, because they have sinnedH2398 against thee; if they prayH6419 toward this placeH4725, and confessH3034 thy nameH8034, and turnH7725 from their sinH2398, because thou hast afflicted them; 27then hearH8085 thou in the heavensH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy servantsH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, when thou teachest them the goodH2896 wayH1870 wherein they should walk; and giveH5414 rainH4306 upon thy landH776, which thou hast givenH5414 to thy peopleH5971 for an inheritanceH5159. 28If there beH1961 famineH7458 in the landH776, if there beH1961 pestilenceH1698, if there beH1961 blightH7711 or mildewH3420, locustH697 or caterpillar; if their enemiesH341 besiege them in the landH776 of their gatesH8179; whatever plagueH1698 or whatever sicknessH4245 there beH1961: 29what prayerH8605, what supplicationH8467 soever beH1961 madeH3045 by any manH376, or by all thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, when they shall knowH3045 every manH376 his own plagueH5061, and his own grief, and shall spreadH6566 forth his handsH3709 toward this houseH1004; 30then hearH8085 thou from the heavensH8064, the settled placeH4349 of thy dwellingH3427, and forgiveH5545, and render unto every manH376 according to all his waysH1870, whose heartH3824 thou knowest (for thou, thou onlyH905, knowest the heartsH3824 of the children of menH376), 31that they may fearH3372 thee, to walk in thy waysH1870, all the daysH3117 that they live upon the landH127 which thou gavest unto our fathersH1. 32And as to the stranger alsoH1571, who is not of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, but cometh out of a farH7350 country for thy greatH1419 name's sakeH4616, and thy mightyH2389 handH3027 and thy stretched-outH5186 armH2220; whenH834 they shall comeH935 and prayH6419 toward this houseH1004, 33then hearH8085 thou from the heavensH8064, the settled placeH4349 of thy dwellingH3427, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for; in order that all peoplesH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 thy nameH8034, and may fearH3372 thee as do thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and may knowH3045 that this houseH1004 which I have builtH1129 is calledH7121 by thy nameH8034. 34If thy peopleH5971 goH3318 out to battleH4421 against their enemiesH341 by the wayH1870 that thou shalt sendH7971 them, and they prayH6419 unto thee toward this cityH5892 that thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 that I have builtH1129 unto thy nameH8034; 35then hearH8085 thou from the heavensH8064 their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467, and maintain their rightH4941. 36If 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 a landH776 farH7350 off or near; 37and if they shall take it to heartH3824 in the landH776 whither they were carried captiveH7617, and repent, and make supplication unto thee in the landH776 of their captivityH7633, sayingH559, We have sinnedH2398, we have done iniquity and have dealt perversely; 38and if they returnH7725 unto thee with all their heartH3820 and with all their soulH5315 in the landH776 of their captivityH7633, whither they have carried them captivesH7633, and prayH6419 toward their landH776 which thou gavest unto their fathersH1, and the cityH5892 that thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 that I have builtH1129 unto thy nameH8034; 39then hearH8085 thou from the heavensH8064, from the settled placeH4349 of thy dwellingH3427, their prayerH8605 and their supplicationsH8467, and maintain their rightH4941, and forgiveH5545 thy peopleH5971 their sinH2398 against thee. 40NowH6258, my 7GodH430, I beseech thee, let thine eyesH5869 beH1961 openH6605 and let thine earsH241 beH1961 attentive unto the prayerH8605 [that is made] in this placeH4725. 41And nowH6258, ariseH6965, Jehovah Elohim, into thy resting-place, thou and the arkH727 of thy strengthH5797: let thy priestsH3548, Jehovah Elohim, be clothedH3847 with salvationH8668, and let thy saints rejoiceH8055 in [thy] goodness. 42Jehovah Elohim, turnH7725 not awayH7725 the faceH6440 of thine anointedH4899: rememberH2142 mercies to DavidH1732 thy servantH5650.
