48And so returne vnto thee with all their heart, and with all their soule, in the land of their enemies, which led them away captiue, and pray vnto thee toward their land, which thou gauest vnto their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I haue built for thy Name: 49Then heare thou their prayer and their supplication in heauen thy dwelling place, and mainteine their cause, 50And forgiue thy people that haue sinned against thee, and all their transgressions, wherein they haue transgressed against thee, and giue them compassion before them who caried them captiue, that they may haue compassion on them: 51For they bee thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest foorth out of Egypt, from the mids of the furnace of iron: 52That thine eyes may be open vnto the supplication of thy seruant, and vnto the supplication of thy people Israel, to hearken vnto them in all that they call for vnto thee.
