1 Kings 8:35-37
Christian Standard Bible
35 When the skies are shut and there is no rain,
because they have sinned against you,(A)
and they pray toward this place
and praise your name,
and they turn from their sins
because you are afflicting them,(B)
36 may you hear in heaven
and forgive the sin of your servants
and your people Israel,
so that you may teach them to walk on the good way.(C)
May you send rain on your land
that you gave your people for an inheritance.(D)
37 When there is famine in the land,
when there is pestilence,
when there is blight or mildew, locust or grasshopper,(E)
when their enemy besieges them
in the land and its cities,[a]
when there is any plague or illness,
