36 If they sin H2398 against thee, (for there is no man H120 which sinneth H2398 not,) and thou be angry H599 with them, and deliver H5414 them over before H6440 their enemies, H341 and they carry them away H7617 captives H7617 unto a land H776 far off H7350 or near; H7138
37 Yet if they bethink H7725 H3824 themselves in the land H776 whither they are carried captive, H7617 and turn H7725 and pray H2603 unto thee in the land H776 of their captivity, H7628 saying, H559 We have sinned, H2398 we have done amiss, H5753 and have dealt wickedly; H7561
38 If they return H7725 to thee with all their heart H3820 and with all their soul H5315 in the land H776 of their captivity, H7628 whither they have carried them captives, H7617 and pray H6419 toward H1870 their land, H776 which thou gavest H5414 unto their fathers, H1 and toward the city H5892 which thou hast chosen, H977 and toward the house H1004 which I have built H1129 for thy name: H8034
39 Then hear H8085 thou from the heavens, H8064 even from thy dwelling H3427 place, H4349 their prayer H8605 and their supplications, H8467 and maintain H6213 their cause, H4941 and forgive H5545 thy people H5971 which have sinned H2398 against thee.

Commentary on 2 Chronicles 6 John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
INTRODUCTION TO 2 CHRONICLES 5 & 6
The words with which chapter five begins are the same with 1 Kings 7:51 and what is contained in that and chapter six is much the same with 1 Kings 8:1 on which see the notes; the blessing of Solomon on the people of Israel, which is there, is here omitted, and two verses are here added, much the same with Psalm 132:8.
