47 Yet [a]if they turn again unto their heart in the land (to the which they be carried away captives) and return and pray unto thee [b]in the land of them that carried them away captives, saying, We have sinned, we have transgressed, and done wickedly,
48 If they turn again unto thee with all their heart, and with all their soul in the land of their enemies, which led them away captives, and pray unto thee toward [c]the way of their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, and toward the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy Name,
49 Then hear thou their prayer and their supplication in heaven thy dwelling place, and [d]judge their cause,
