23
And now, O LORD, let the word that you have spoken concerning your servant and concerning his house be established forever, and do as you have spoken,
21
And who is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom God went to redeem to be his people, making for yourself a name for great and awesome things, in driving out nations before your people whom you redeemed from Egypt?
22
And you made your people Israel to be your people forever, and you, O LORD, became their God.
23
And now, O LORD, let the word that you have spoken concerning your servant and concerning his house be established forever, and do as you have spoken,
24
and your name will be established and magnified forever, saying, 'The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, is Israel's God,' and the house of your servant David will be established before you.
25
For you, my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build a house for him. Therefore your servant has found courage to pray before you.
