29 every prayer or petition
that any person or that all your people Israel may have—
they each know their own affliction[a] and suffering—
as they spread out their hands toward this temple,
30 may you hear in heaven, your dwelling place,
and may you forgive and give to everyone[b]
according to all their ways, since you know each heart,
for you alone know the human heart,(A)
31 so that they may fear you
and walk in your ways
all the days they live on the land
you gave our ancestors.
