³⁵ “When the heavens are shut up and there is no rain^(A) because your people have sinned^(B) against you, and when they pray toward this place and give praise to your name and turn from their sin because you have afflicted them,

³⁶ then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of your servants, your people Israel. Teach^(A) them the right way^(B) to live, and send rain^(C) on the land you gave your people for an inheritance.
