1 Kings 8:35–36

35 When the skies are shut and there is no rain,

because they have sinned against you,v

and they pray toward this place

and praise your name,

and they turn from their sins

because you are afflicting them,w

36 may you hear in heaven

and forgive the sin of your servants

and your people Israel,

so that you may teach them to

walk on the good way.a

May you send rain on your land

that you gave your people for an inheritance.b
