2 Chronicles 7:12-14 ▼

12 Later, the LORD appeared to Solomon during the night and told him: |I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for a sacrificial temple to me.

13 Whenever I close the skies so there is no rain, or whenever I command locusts to lay waste to the land, or whenever I send epidemics among my people,

14 when my people humble themselves—the ones who are called by my name—and pray, seek me, and turn away from their evil practices, I myself will listen from heaven, I will pardon their sins, and I will restore their land.
