2 Chronicles 6:23-25
New English Translation

23 listen from heaven and make a just decision about your servants’ claims. Condemn the guilty party, declare the other innocent, and give both of them what they deserve.[a]

24 “If your people Israel are defeated by an enemy[b] because they sinned against you, then if they come back to you, renew their allegiance to you,[c] and pray for your help[d] before you in this temple, 25 then listen from heaven, forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them back to the land you gave to them and their ancestors.[e]
