2 Chronicles 7:13-15

13 ¹When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command the locust to devour the land, or send pestilence among my people,

14 if my people who are called by my name ²humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

15 ³Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayer that is made in this place.
