31 If a man does wrong to his neighbour, and has to take an oath, and comes before your altar to take his oath in this house:

35 When heaven is shut up and there is no rain, because of their sin against you; if they make prayers with their faces turned to this place, honouring your name and turning away from their sin when you send trouble on them:
