1 Chronicles 17:18-24
-
18 What can David speak more to thee for the honour of thy servant? for thou knowest thy servant.
-
19 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.
-
20 O LORD, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
-
21 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?
-
22 For thy people Israel didst thou make thine own people for ever; and thou, LORD, becamest their God.
-
23 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.
-
24 Let it even be established, that thy name may be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel: and let the house of David thy servant be established before thee.
