If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [When an enemy defeats your people Israel]

(Occurrence 0) because they have sinned against you

(Some words not found in UHB: and=if defeated people_of,your Yisrael to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before enemy that/for/because/then/when sinned to/for=you(fs) and,they_will_return and,they_will_praise DOM your(ms)=name and,they_will_pray and,they_will_seek_favor to=your=face in,house (the),this )

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Some words not found in UHB: and=if defeated people_of,your Yisrael to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before enemy that/for/because/then/when sinned to/for=you(fs) and,they_will_return and,they_will_praise DOM your(ms)=name and,they_will_pray and,they_will_seek_favor to=your=face in,house (the),this )

Here “turn back to you” represents submitting again to God. Alternate translation: [if they submit to you again]

(Occurrence 0) confess your name

(Some words not found in UHB: and=if defeated people_of,your Yisrael to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before enemy that/for/because/then/when sinned to/for=you(fs) and,they_will_return and,they_will_praise DOM your(ms)=name and,they_will_pray and,they_will_seek_favor to=your=face in,house (the),this )

This could mean: (1) “confess that they have sinned against you” or (2) “praise you” or (3) “say that they will obey you from now on.”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

(Occurrence 0) request forgiveness before you

(Some words not found in UHB: and=if defeated people_of,your Yisrael to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before enemy that/for/because/then/when sinned to/for=you(fs) and,they_will_return and,they_will_praise DOM your(ms)=name and,they_will_pray and,they_will_seek_favor to=your=face in,house (the),this )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word forgiveness, you can express the same idea with a verbal form. Alternate translation: [ask you to forgive them]
