And there was a famine in the days of David, three years, year after year. And David sought the face of Jehovah. And Jehovah said, It is for Saul and for his bloody house, because he caused the Gibeonites to die.
and My people, on whom My name is called, shall be humbled, and shall pray, and shall seek My face, and shall turn back from their evil ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth. I did not say to Jacob’s seed, Seek Me in vain. I Jehovah speak righteousness, declaring uprightness.
