so that it doesn’t rain, or command locusts to devour the land’s vegetation,
or send a plague among my people,
7:14 if my people, who belong to me,
humble themselves, pray, seek to please me,
and repudiate their sinful practices,
then I will respond
from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.

7:16 Now I have chosen and consecrated this temple by making it my permanent home;
I will be constantly present there.
