וְֽאִם־יִנָּגֵף עַמְּךָ יִשְׂרָאֵל לִפְנֵי אוֹיֵב כִּי יֶחֶטְאוּ־לָךְ וְשָׁבוּ וְהוֹדוּ אֶת־שְׁמֶךָ וְהִתְפַּֽלְלוּ וְהִֽתְחַנְּנוּ לְפָנֶיךָ בַּבַּיִת הַזֶּֽה׃
And if Thy people Yisra᾽el be smitten before the enemy, because they have sinned against Thee; and they return and confess Thy name, and pray and make supplication before Thee in this house;

Rashi
ושבו והודו את שמך. פתרון והתוודו את עונם והאחרון מוכיח והודו את שמך ומחטאתם ישובון כי תענם:
and confess - Heb. וְהוֹדוּ. The meaning is: and they will confess their iniquity, and the latter verse proves this (verse 26): “and confess to Your name and repent of their sin, so that You may answer them.”
וְאַתָּה תִּשְׁמַע מִן־הַשָּׁמַיִם וְסָלַחְתָּ לְחַטַּאת עַמְּךָ יִשְׂרָאֵל וַהֲשֵֽׁיבוֹתָם אֶל־הָאֲדָמָה אֲשֶׁר־נָתַתָּה לָהֶם וְלַאֲבֹתֵיהֶֽם׃ {פ}
then hear from the heavens, and forgive the sin of Thy people Yisra᾽el, and bring them back to the land which Thou didst give to them and to their fathers.

Rashi
והשיבותם. והשב אותם אל האדמה כי כשנופלים ונגפים לפני אויביהם תופשים מה שיכולים ומביאים אותם בשביה אל ארץ אחרת:
and bring them back to the land For when they fall and are struck down before their enemies, they [their enemies] will seize what they can and will bring them into captivity to another land.
ואם ינגף עמך. ולא מפני שידך קצרה מלהושיע אלא דבר זה גורם כי יחטאו לך:
And if Your people...is struck down not because You have no power, but because they will sin against You.
