Bible: 1 Kgs 8:33, 35, 47, 48

8:33The time will come when 1  your people Israel are defeated by an enemy 2  because they sinned against you. If they come back to you, renew their allegiance to you, 3  and pray for your help 4  in this temple,

8:35The time will come when 5  the skies are shut up tightly and no rain falls because your people 6  sinned against you. When they direct their prayers toward this place, renew their allegiance to you, 7  and turn away from their sin because you punish 8  them, 8:47 When your people 9  come to their senses 10  in the land where they are held prisoner, they will repent and beg for your mercy in the land of their imprisonment, admitting, ‘We have sinned and gone astray; 11  we have done evil.’ 8:48 When they return to you with all their heart and being 12  in the land where they are held prisoner, 13  and direct their prayers to you toward the land you gave to their ancestors, your chosen city, and the temple I built for your honor, 14
