1 Kings 8:32-34

New Living Translation

³² then hear from heaven and judge between your servants—the accuser and the accused. Punish the guilty as they deserve. Acquit the innocent because of their innocence.

³³ “If your people Israel are defeated by their enemies because they have sinned against you, and if they turn to you and acknowledge your name and pray to you here in this Temple, ³⁴ then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of your people Israel and return them to this land you gave their ancestors.
