  9. 1 Chronicles 17:15-23

1 Chronicles 17:15-23

  1. According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.

  2. And David the king came and sat before the LORD, and said, Who am I, O LORD God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?

  3. And yet this was a small thing in thine eyes, O God; for thou hast also spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, O LORD God.

  4. What can David speak more to thee for the honour of thy servant? for thou knowest thy servant.

  5. O LORD, for thy servant's sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this greatness, in making known all these great things.

  6. O LORD, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

  7. And what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem to be his own people, to make thee a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast redeemed out of Egypt?

  8. For thy people Israel didst thou make thine own people for ever; and thou, LORD, becamest their God.

  9. Therefore now, LORD, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as thou hast said.
