1 Kings 8:32 in Context — 1 Kings 8

30 Ouve, pois, a oração do teu servo, e do teu povo Israel; quando orarem neste lugar, também tu ouve no lugar da tua habitação nos céus; que ouças e perdoes.

31 Quando alguém pecar contra o seu próximo, e lhe impuserem um juramento de maldição, e o juramento de maldição vier diante do teu altar nesta casa,

32 ouve tu nos céus, age, e julga teus servos, condenando ao culpado, fazendo recair o seu proceder sobre a sua cabeça, e inocentando ao justo, para dar-lhe conforme a sua justiça.

33 Quando teu povo Israel for derrotado diante do inimigo, por haver pecado contra ti, e a ti se converterem, e confessarem o teu nome, e orarem, e suplicarem a ti nesta casa,

34 ouve tu nos céus, e perdoa o pecado do teu povo Israel, e traze-os de volta à terra que deste aos seus pais.
