2 Chronicles 6:20-25
20Night and day may you watch over this temple, the place where you promised you would live. May you answer your servant’s prayer for this place.
21Respond to the requests of your servant and your people Israel for this place. Hear from your heavenly dwelling place and respond favorably and forgive.
22“When someone is accused of sinning against his neighbor and the latter pronounces a curse on the alleged offender before your altar in this temple,
23listen from heaven and make a just decision about your servants’ claims. Condemn the guilty party, declare the other innocent, and give both of them what they deserve.
24“If your people Israel are defeated by an enemy because they sinned against you, then if they come back to you, renew their allegiance to you, and pray for your help before you in this temple,
25then listen from heaven, forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them back to the land you gave to them and their ancestors.
