Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain you; how much less this house which I have built! 19 Have respect therefore to the prayer of your servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to listen to the cry and the prayer which your servant prays before you: 20 That your eyes may be open upon this house day and night, upon the place where you have said that you would put your name there; to listen to the prayer which your servant prays toward this place. 21 Listen therefore to the supplications of your servant, and of your people Israel, which they shall make toward this place: hear from your dwelling place, even from heaven, and when you hear, forgive. 22 If a man sins against his neighbor, and an oath is laid upon him to make him swear, and the oath comes before your altar in this house; 23 Then hear from heaven, and act, and judge your servants, by recompensing the wicked, by bringing his way upon his own head; and by justifying the righteous, by giving him according to his righteousness. 24 And if your people Israel be defeated before the enemy, because they have sinned against you, and shall return and confess your name, and pray and make supplication before you in this house; 25 Then hear from the heavens, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them again to the land which you gave to them and to their fathers. 26 When the heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against you; yet if they pray toward this place, and confess your name, and turn from their sin, when you afflict them; 27 Then hear from heaven, and forgive the sin of your servants, and of your people Israel, when you have taught them the good way, wherein they should walk; and send rain upon your land, which you have given to your people for an inheritance. 28 If there is famine in the land, if there is pestilence, if there is blight, or mildew, locusts, or caterpillars; if their enemies besiege them in the cities of their land; whatever plague or whatever sickness there is: 29 Then what prayer or what supplication soever shall be made by any man, or by all your people Israel, when everyone knows his own plague and his own grief, and shall spread forth his hands in this house: 30 Then hear from heaven your dwelling place, and forgive, and render to every man according to all his ways, whose heart you know; (for you only know the hearts of the children of men:) 31 That they may fear you, to walk in your ways, as long as they live in the land which you gave to our fathers. 32 Moreover concerning the foreigner, who is not of your people Israel, but has come from a far country for your great name's sake, and your mighty hand, and your stretched out arm; if they come and pray in this house; 33 Then hear from the heavens, even from your dwelling place, and do according to all that the foreigner calls to you for; that all people of the earth may know your name, and fear you, as does your people Israel, and may know that this house which I have built is called by your name. 34 If your people go out to war against their enemies by the way that you shall send them, and they pray to you toward this city which you have chosen, and the house which I have built for your name; 35 Then hear from the heavens their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause. 36 If they sin against you, (for there is no man who does not sin,) and you are angry with them, and deliver them over before their enemies, and they carry them away captive to a land far off or near; 37 Yet if they come to themselves in the land where they are carried captive, and turn and pray to you in the land of their captivity, saying, We have sinned, we have done wrong, and have dealt wickedly; 38 If they return to you with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, where they have been carried captive, and pray toward their land, which you gave to their fathers, and toward the city which you have chosen, and toward the house which I have built for your name: 39 Then hear from the heavens, even from your dwelling place, their prayer and their supplications, and maintain their cause, and forgive your people who have sinned against you. 40 Now, my God, I beseech you, let your eyes be open, and let your ears be attentive to the prayer that is made in this place. 41 Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into your resting place, you, and the ark of your strength: let your priests, O LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and let your saints rejoice in goodness. 42 O LORD God, do not turn away the face of your anointed: remember the mercies of David your servant.
