23. And who in the earth is like thy people, like Israel? A Gentile for the love of whom God went to ransom as a people to himself and to give him a name and to do with you great and terrible things in thy land because of thy people whom thou didst redeem unto thee from Egypt, from the Gentiles and their gods?
24. For thou hast confirmed to thyself thy people Israel to be thy people for ever, and thou, Lord, have become their God.
25. And now, O Lord God, the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy slave and concerning his house, raise it up for ever and do as thou hast said.
26. For thus shall thy name be magnified for ever that it may be said, The Lord of the hosts is God over Israel and that the house of thy slave David be established before thee.
27. For thou, O Lord of the hosts, God of Israel, hast revealed to thy slave, saying, I will build thee a house. Therefore, thy slave has found it in his heart to pray this prayer in thy presence.
28. And now, O Lord GOD, thou art God, and thy words shall be firm, and thou hast spoken this goodness unto thy slave.
