1 Chronicles 17:21-27 ▼

21 And what one nation on the earth is like Your people Israel, whom God went to redeem for Himself as a people, to make for You a name by great and awesome things, by driving out nations from before Your people, whom You redeemed from Egypt?

22 For You have made Your people Israel Your own people forever, and You, LORD, became their God.

23 “Now, LORD, let the word that You have spoken concerning Your servant and concerning his house be established forever, and do just as You have spoken.

24 Let Your name be established and be great forever, saying, ‘The LORD of armies is the God of Israel, a God to Israel; and the house of Your servant David is established before You.’

25 For You, my God, have revealed to Your servant that You will build him a house; therefore Your servant has found courage to pray before You.

26 Now, LORD, You are God, and have promised this good thing to Your servant.

27 And now You have decided to bless the house of Your servant, that it may continue forever before You; for You, LORD, have blessed, and it is blessed forever.”
