2 Chronicles 6:40 In-Context

38 and we return to you,' with their whole heart and with all their inmost being in the land of their captivity where they took them captive, and [if] they pray toward their land that you have given to their ancestors and the city that you have chosen and to the house that I have built for your name,

39 then may you hear their prayer and their pleas from the heavens, from your dwelling place, and uphold their case and forgive your people who sinned against you.

40 Now, O my God, please let your eyes be open and your ears attentive to the prayer of this place!

41 "And now arise, O Yahweh God, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength! O Yahweh God, let the priests be clothed with salvation, and let your holy ones rejoice in your goodness!

42 O Yahweh God, do not turn away the face of your anointed one! Remember the loyal love of your servant, David!"
