2 Chronicles 7:14

Context
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 

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.
