1 Kings 8:48

And so return unto thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies, which led them away captive, and pray unto thee toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name:

KJV

et reversi fuerint ad te in universo corde suo et tota anima sua in terra inimicorum suorum, ad quam captivi ducti fuerint : et oraverint te contra viam terræ suæ, quam dedisti patribus eorum, et civitatis quam elegisti, et templi quod ædificavi nomini tuo :

Vulgate

καὶ ἐπιστρέψωσιν πρὸς σὲ ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ ψυχῇ αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν οὗ μετήγαγες αὐτούς, καὶ προσεύξονται πρὸς σὲ ὁδὸν γῆς αὐτῶν ἧς ἔδωκας τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν, τῆς πόλεως ἧς ἐξελέξω καὶ τοῦ οἴκου οὗ ᾠκοδόμηκα τῷ ὀνόματί σου·

LXX

if they return unto thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies, who carried them captive, and pray unto thee toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name:

ASV

וְ/שָׁ֣בוּ אֵלֶ֗י/ךָ בְּ/כָל לְבָבָ/ם֙ וּ/בְ/כָל נַפְשָׁ֔/ם בְּ/אֶ֥רֶץ אֹיְבֵי/הֶ֖ם אֲשֶׁר שָׁב֣וּ אֹתָ֑/ם וְ/הִֽתְפַּֽלְל֣וּ אֵלֶ֗י/ךָ דֶּ֤רֶךְ אַרְצָ/ם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר נָתַ֣תָּה לַ/אֲבוֹתָ֔/ם הָ/עִיר֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בָּחַ֔רְתָּ וְ/הַ/בַּ֖יִת אֲשֶׁר בנית בָּנִ֥יתִי לִ/שְׁמֶֽ/ךָ
