1599 Geneva Bible
23 Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, in recompensing the wicked to bring his way [a]upon his head, and in justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
24 ¶ And when thy people Israel shall be overthrown before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and turn again, and [b]confess thy Name, and pray, and make supplication before thee in this house,
25 Then hear thou in heaven, and be merciful unto the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest to them and to their fathers.

23 then hear from heaven and act. Judge between your servants, condemning(A) the guilty and bringing down on their heads what they have done, and vindicating the innocent by treating them in accordance with their innocence.
24 “When your people Israel have been defeated(B) by an enemy because they have sinned against you and when they turn back and give praise to your name, praying and making supplication before you in this temple, 25 then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of your people Israel and bring them back to the land you gave to them and their ancestors.
