*
And may You hear the supplication of Your servant and of Your people Israel ,
when they pray toward this place .
Hear in heaven Your dwelling place ;
and when You hear ,
forgive .
* "
When anyone sins against his neighbor ,
and is forced to take an oath ,
and comes and takes an oath before Your altar in this temple ,
*
then hear in heaven ,
and act ,
and judge Your servants ,
condemning the wicked ,
bringing his way on his head ,
and justifying the righteous by giving him according to his righteousness .
* "
When Your people Israel are defeated before an enemy because they have sinned against You ,
and when they turn back to You and confess Your name ,
and pray and make supplication to You in this temple ,
*
then hear in heaven ,
and forgive the sin of Your people Israel ,
and bring them back to the land which You gave to their fathers .
* "
When the heavens are shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned against You ,
when they pray toward this place and confess Your name ,
and turn from their sin because You afflict them ,
*
then hear in heaven ,
and forgive the sin of Your servants ,
Your people Israel ,
that You may teach them the good way in which they should walk ;
and send rain on Your land which You have given to Your people as an inheritance .
* "
When there is famine in the land ,
pestilence or blight or mildew ,
locusts or grasshoppers ;
when their enemy besieges them in the land of their cities ;
whatever plague or whatever sickness there is ;
*
whatever prayer ,
whatever supplication is made by anyone ,
or by all Your people Israel ,
when each one knows the plague of his own heart ,
and spreads out his hands toward this temple :
*
then hear in heaven Your dwelling place ,
and forgive ,
and act ,
and give to everyone according to all his ways ,
whose heart You know (
for You alone know the hearts of all the sons of men ),
