37 When there is famine in the land,
when there is pestilence,
when there is blight or mildew, locust or grasshopper,(A)
when their enemy besieges them
in the land and its cities,[a]
when there is any plague or illness,
38 every prayer or petition
that any person or that all your people Israel may have—
they each know their own affliction[b](B)
as they spread out their hands toward this temple,(C)
39 may you hear in heaven, your dwelling place,
and may you forgive, act, and give to everyone
according to all their ways, since you know each heart,
for you alone know every human heart,(D)
