2 Chronicles 6:33

31 so that they may fear You and walk in Your ways all the days they live in the land that You gave to our fathers.

32 And as for the foreigner who is not of Your people Israel but has come from a distant land because of Your great name and Your mighty hand and outstretched arm—when he comes and prays toward this temple,

then may You hear from heaven, Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You. Then all the peoples of the earth will know Your name and fear You, as do Your people Israel, and they will know that this house I have built is called by Your Name.

34 When Your people go to war against their enemies, wherever You send them, and when they pray to You in the direction of the city You have chosen and the house I have built for Your Name,

35 then may You hear from heaven their prayer and their plea, and may You uphold their cause.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
