1 Kings 8:47-49

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁴⁷ and when they come to their senses^[a]
in the land where they were deported
and repent and petition You in their captors’ land:
“We have sinned and done wrong;
we have been wicked,”^(A)
48 and when they return to You with their whole mind and heart
in the land of their enemies who took them captive,^(B)
and when they pray to You in the direction of their land
that You gave their ancestors,
the city You have chosen,^(C)
and the temple I have built for Your name,
⁴⁹ may You hear in heaven, Your dwelling place,
their prayer and petition and uphold their cause.
