1 Chronicles 17:22 In-Context

20 "Lord, there isn't anyone like you. There isn't any God but you. We have heard about it with our own ears.
21 "Who is like your people Israel? God, we are the one nation on earth you have saved. You have set us free for yourself. Your name has become famous. You have done great and wonderful things. You have driven nations out to make room for your people. You saved us when you set us free from Egypt. No other god has done any of those things for its people.
22 You made Israel your very own people forever. Lord, you have become our God.
23 "And now, Lord, let the promise you have made to me and my royal house stand forever. Do exactly as you promised.
24 When your promise comes true, your name will be honored forever. People will say, 'The LORD rules over all. He is the God over Israel. He is Israel's God.' My royal house will be made secure in your sight.
