32 And don’t forget the foreigner who is not a member of your people Israel but has come from a far country because of your reputation—people are going to be attracted here by your great reputation, your wonderworking power—and who come to pray to this Temple.

33     Listen from your home in heaven
        and honor the prayers of the foreigner,
    So that people all over the world
        will know who you are and what you’re like,
    And live in reverent obedience before you,
        just as your own people Israel do,
    So they’ll know that you personally
        make this Temple that I’ve built what it is.

34-35 When your people go to war against their enemies at the time and place you send them and they pray to God toward the city you chose and The Temple I’ve built to honor your Name,

    Listen from heaven to what they pray and ask for
        and do what is right for them.
