2 Chronicles 6:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 Hear thou therefore the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, which they pray in this place: and hear thou in the place of thine habitation, even in heaven, and when thou hearest, be merciful.
22 ¶ (A)When a man shall sin against his [a]neighbor, and he lay upon him an oath to cause him to swear, and the [b]swearer shall come before thine altar in this house,
23 Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, in recompensing the wicked to bring his way [c]upon his head, and in justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
