"And now, O Lord, fulfill for all time the promise you made about me and my descendants, and do what you said you would.
24
Your fame will be great, and people will forever say, "The Lord Almighty is God over Israel.' And you will preserve my dynasty for all time.

27
I ask you to bless my descendants so that they will continue to enjoy your favor. You, Lord, have blessed them, and your blessing will rest on them forever."
