1 Kings 8:44-46

Expanded Bible

⁴⁴ “When your people go out to fight their enemies ·along some [by whatever] road on which you send them, your people will pray to you, facing the city which you have chosen and the ·Temple [^Lhouse] I have built for ·you [^Lyour name]. ⁴⁵ Then hear in heaven their prayer and their ·plea [supplication], and ·do what is right [uphold/maintain their cause].

⁴⁶ “When ·your people [^Lthey] sin against you (for there is no one who does not sin), you will become angry with them and ·hand them over [abandon/give them] to their enemies. Their enemies will capture them and take them away to their countries far or near.
