'Accepts' in the Bible

He prays to God, then he accepts him, and he sees his face with a shout of joy, and he repays to the human being his righteousness.

And this you do {as well}: [you] cover the altar of Yahweh [with] tears, [with] weeping and [with] groaning, because he {no longer regards the offering} or accepts [it] [with] favor from your hand.
