2 Chronicles 7:14

7:14 if my people, who belong to me, ¹  humble themselves, pray, seek to please me, ²  and repudiate their sinful practices, ³  then I will respond ⁴  from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land. ⁵ 

2 Chronicles 22:6

22:6 Joram ⁶  returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he received from the Syrians ⁷  in Ramah when he fought against King Hazael of Syria. Ahaziah ⁸  son of King Jehoram of Judah went down to visit Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he had been wounded. ⁹ 

¹ tn Heb “over whom my name is called.” The Hebrew idiom “call the name over” indicates ownership. See 2 Sam 12:28.

² tn Heb “seek my face,” where “my face” is figurative for God’s presence and acceptance.

³ tn Heb “and turn from their sinful ways.”

⁴ tn Heb “hear.”

⁵ sn Here the phrase heal their land means restore the damage done by the drought, locusts and plague mentioned in v. 13.

⁶ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Joram) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁷ tn Heb “which the Syrians inflicted [on] him.”

⁸ tc Most Hebrew mss read “Azariah.” A few Hebrew mss, the LXX, Vulgate, and Syriac read “Ahaziah” (cf. 2 Kgs 8:29).

⁹ tn Heb “because he was sick,” presumably referring to the wounds he received in the battle with the Syrians.
