Contextual Overview

²² Then Solomon stood facing the Lord 's altar, and all the Israelites were standing behind him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Yet if they shall bethink themselves in the land whither they were carried captives,.... Or, "return to their heart" a; remember their sins, the cause of their captivity, and reflect upon them:

and repent of them, and make supplication unto thee in the land of them that carried them captives; though and while they are in such a state:

saying, we have sinned, and have done perversely, we have committed wickedness; which phrases include all their sins, with all the aggravated circumstances of them, and their sense of them, and contrition for them.

a והשיבו אל לבן "et reversi fuerint ad cor suum", Pagninas, Montanus, Vatablus.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bethink themselves - literally, as in the margin - i. e. “reflect,” “consider seriously.” Compare Deuteronomy 30:1.

Sinned, done perversely, committed wickedness - The words here used seem to have become the standard form of expressing contrition when the time of the captivity arrived and the Israelites were forcibly removed to Babylon (compare the margin reference). The three expressions are thought to form a climax, rising from negative to positive guilt, and from mere wrongful acts to depravation of the moral character.
