1 Kings 8:34-36

New Living Translation

³⁴ then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of your people Israel and return them to this land you gave their ancestors.

³⁵ “If the skies are shut up and there is no rain because your people have sinned against you, and if they pray toward this Temple and acknowledge your name and turn from their sins because you have punished them, ³⁶ then hear from heaven and forgive the sins of your servants, your people Israel. Teach them to follow the right path, and send rain on your land that you have given to your people as their special possession.
