2 Chronicles 6:23

²¹And thou shalt hear the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, whatsoever prayers they shall make toward this place: and thou shalt hearken in thy dwelling place out of heaven, yea thou shalt hear, and be merciful.

²²If a man sin against his neighbor, and he bring an oath upon him so as to make him swear, and he come and swear before the altar in this house;

— 2 Chronicles 6:23 —

²⁴And if thy people Israel should be put to the worse before the enemy, if they should sin against thee, and then turn and confess to thy name, and pray and make supplication before thee in this house;

²⁵then shalt thou hearken out of heaven and shalt be merciful to the sins of thy people Israel, and thou shalt restore them to the land which thou gavest to them and to their fathers.
