Connecting Statement:

King Solomon continues praying.

So listen to the requests of your servant and of your people Israel

Solomon speaks of himself as "your servant" to show that he respects Yahweh. This can be stated in first person. Alternate translation: "So listen to my requests and the requests of your people Israel" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person)

when you listen, forgive

"when you hear our prayers, please forgive our sins"
