2 Chronicles 6:31 In-Context

29 When any of these things happens, the people will become truly sorry. If your people spread their hands in prayer toward this Temple,

30 then hear their prayers from your home in heaven. Forgive and treat each person as he should be treated because you know what is in a person's heart. Only you know what is in people's hearts.

31 Then the people will respect and obey you as long as they live in this land you gave our ancestors.

32 "People who are not Israelites, foreigners from other lands, will hear about your greatness and power. They will come from far away to pray at this Temple.

33 Then hear from your home in heaven, and do whatever they ask you. Then people everywhere will know you and respect you, just as your people Israel do. Then everyone will know that I built this Temple as a place to worship you.
