24
And if thy people Israel should fall before their enemies because they have sinned against thee and if they should convert and confess thy name and pray and make supplication before thee in this house,
25
thou shalt hear from the heavens and forgive the sin of thy people Israel and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest to them and to their fathers.
26
If the heavens should become shut up, that there be no rain because they have sinned against thee;
yet if they pray in this place and confess thy name and become converted from their sins when thou dost afflict them,
