Exegesis
The construct chain el-tachanunei avdecha {אֶל־תַּחֲנוּנֵי עַבְדְּךָ | ʾel-taḥănûnê ʿavdəkā} ‘to the supplications of your servant’ foregrounds individual intercession, immediately broadened by ve-ammecha yisrael {וְעַמְּךָ יִשְׂרָאֵל | wəʿammeḵā yiśrāʾēl} for communal inclusivity.
In context — 2 Chronicles 6:21
And You hear the supplications of Your servant and of Your people Israel when they pray toward this place. Hear from Your dwelling place in heaven, and when You hear, forgive.
