1 Kings 8:45-47

Expanded Bible

⁴⁵ Then hear in heaven their prayer and their ·plea [supplication], and ·do what is right [uphold/maintain their cause].

⁴⁶ “When ·your people [^Lthey] sin against you (for there is no one who does not sin), you will become angry with them and ·hand them over [abandon/give them] to their enemies. Their enemies will capture them and take them away to their countries far or near. ⁴⁷ But if they ·become sorry for their sins [or come to their senses; or have a change of heart; ^Lreturn to their heart] and ·are sorry [repent] and ·pray [plead; make supplications] to you in the land ·where they are held as prisoners [of their captors], saying, ‘We have sinned; we have ·done wrong [committed iniquity] and acted wickedly.’
