37. and they turn their hearts in the land that they have been taken captive, and they repent and seek Your favor in the land of captivity saying, ‘We have sinned, done wrong, and acted wickedly,’
38. and if they turn in repentance to You with all their heart and all their soul in the land of their captivity that they were taken to, and pray toward the land that You have given to their fathers, and toward the city that You have chosen, and toward the house that I have built for Your name,
39. then hear from heaven, from Your dwelling place, their prayer and supplication, and maintain their cause, and forgive the people who have sinned against You.
40. “Now, O my God, may Your eyes be open and Your ears attentive to the prayer that I offer in this place.
41. “Now rise up, O Lord God, to Your resting place,both You and the ark of Your strength.And let Your priests, O Lord God, be clothed in salvationand Your loyal ones rejoice in goodness.
42. O Lord God, do not turn Your face from Your anointed.Remember the mercies of Your servant David.”
