1 Kings 8:44-50
44IfH3588 thy peopleH5971 goH3318 outH3318 to battleH4421 againstH5921 their enemyH341, by whatsoever wayH1870 thou shalt sendH7971 them, and they prayH6419 unto the LORDH3068 towardH413 the cityH5892 whichH834 thou hast chosenH977, and towardH413 the houseH1004 whichH834 I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034:
45then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467, and maintain their causeH4941.
46IfH3588 they sinH2398 againstH413 thee, (for there is noH3808 manH120 that sinneth notH3808,) and thou be angryH599 with them, and deliverH5414 them to the enemyH341, soH5414 that they carry them awayH7617 captiveH7617 unto the landH776 of the enemyH341, farH7350 offH7350 or nearH7138;
47yet ifH834 they shall bethink themselves in the landH776 whither they are carriedH7617 captiveH7617, and turnH7725 againH7725, and makeH7725 supplication unto thee in the landH776 of them that carriedH7617 them captiveH7617, sayingH559, WeH834 have sinnedH2398, and have doneH2398 perversely, weH834 have dealt wickedlyH7561;
48ifH834 they returnH7725 unto thee with allH3605 their heartH3824 and with allH3605 their soulH5315 in the landH776 of their enemiesH341, whichH834 carriedH7617 them captiveH7617, and prayH6419 unto thee towardH413 their landH776, whichH834 thou gavest unto their fathersH1, the cityH5892 whichH834 thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 whichH834 I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034:
49then hearH8085 thou their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467 in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and maintain their causeH4941;
50and forgiveH5545 thy peopleH5971 whichH834 have sinnedH2398 againstH6440 thee, and allH3605 their transgressionsH6588 whereinH834 they have transgressedH6586 againstH6440 thee; and giveH5414 them compassionH7355 beforeH6440 thoseH3605 who carriedH7617 them captiveH7617, that they may have compassionH7355 on them:
