1 Chronicles 17:23 In-Context

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.
25 "My God, you have shown me that you will build me a royal house. So I can pray to you boldly.
