1 Chronicles 17:21

21 Who can be compared with your people Isra'el? What other nation on earth did God set out to redeem and turn into a people for himself? You made yourself a reputation by doing great and terrifying things, as you drove out the nations from before your people, whom you redeemed from Egypt.

1 Chronicles 17:21 In-Context

19 ADONAI, it is for your servant's sake and in accordance with your own heart that you have done all this greatness and revealed all these great things.

20 ADONAI, there is no one like you, and there is no God besides you - everything we have heard confirms that.

21 Who can be compared with your people Isra'el? What other nation on earth did God set out to redeem and turn into a people for himself? You made yourself a reputation by doing great and terrifying things, as you drove out the nations from before your people, whom you redeemed from Egypt.

22 For you made your people Isra'el your people forever; and you, ADONAI, became their God.

23 So now, ADONAI, let the word that you spoke concerning your servant and his house be confirmed forever; do what you have promised.
