37 yet when they come to themselves in the land where they were carried captive, and repent, and make supplication to You in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned, we have done wrong, and have committed wickedness’;

38 and when 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, the ^acity which You have chosen, and toward the temple which I have built for Your name:

39 then hear from heaven 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 pray, let Your eyes be ^aopen and let Your ears be attentive to the prayer made in this place.

41 ^a“Now therefore,
Arise, O Lord God, to Your ^bresting place,
You and the ark of Your strength.
Let Your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation,
And let Your saints ^crejoice in goodness.

42 “O Lord God, do not turn away the face of Your Anointed;
^aRemember the mercies of Your servant David.”
