1 Kings 8:33-36

English Standard Version

^33 (A)“When your people Israel are defeated before the enemy because they have sinned against you, and ^(B)if they turn again to you and acknowledge your name and pray and plead with you in this house, ³⁴ then hear in heaven and forgive the sin of your people Israel and bring them again to the land that you gave to their fathers.

^35 (C)“When heaven is shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned against you, if they pray toward this place and acknowledge your name and turn from their sin, when you afflict them, ³⁶ then hear in heaven and forgive the sin of your servants, your people Israel, when ^(D)you teach them ^(E)the good way in which they should walk, and grant rain upon your land, which you have given to your people as an inheritance.
