29 ^athat Your eyes may be open toward this house night and day, toward ^bthe place of which You have said, ‘My name shall be there,’ to listen to the prayer which Your slave shall pray toward this place. 30 ^aAnd listen to the supplication of Your slave and of Your people Israel, ^bwhen they pray toward this place; listen in heaven Your dwelling place; listen and ^cforgive.
31 “^aIf a man sins against his neighbor and is made to take an oath, and he comes and takes an oath before Your altar in this house, 32 then listen in heaven and act and judge Your slaves, ^acondemning the wicked by ¹bringing his way on his own head and justifying the righteous by ¹bringing him reward according to his righteousness.
33 “^aWhen Your people Israel are ¹defeated before an enemy, because they have sinned against You, ^bif they turn to You again and confess Your name and pray and make supplication to You in this house, 34 then listen in heaven, and forgive the sin of Your people Israel, and bring them back to the land which You gave to their fathers.
35 “^aWhen the heavens are shut up and there is no rain, because they have sinned against You, and they pray toward this place and confess Your name and turn from their sin when You afflict them,
