1 Chronicles 17:22 In-Context

20 O LORD, there is none like Thee, neither is there any God besides Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
21 And what one nation on the earth is like Thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem to be His own people, to make Thee a name of greatness and fearsomeness by driving out nations from before Thy people, whom Thou hast redeemed out of Egypt?
22 For Thy people Israel didst Thou make Thine own people for ever; and Thou, LORD, becamest their God.
23 Therefore now, LORD, let the thing that Thou hast spoken concerning Thy servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as Thou hast said.
24 Let it even be established, that Thy name may be magnified for ever, saying, `The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel; and let the house of David Thy servant be established before Thee.'
