23. What one nation in the earth is like your people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, and to make himself a name, and to do great things for you, and awesome things for your land, before your people, whom you redeemed to yourself out of Egypt, from the nations and their gods?
24. You established for yourself your people Israel to be your people forever; and you, Lord, became their God.
25. Now, Lord God, the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, confirm it forever, and do as you have spoken.
26. Let your name be magnified forever, saying, ‘The Lord of Hosts is God over Israel; and the house of your servant David will be established before you.’
27. For you, Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel, have revealed to your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house.’ Therefore your servant has found in his heart to pray this prayer to you.
28. “Now, O Lord GOD, you are God, and your words are truth, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.
29. Now therefore let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Lord GOD, have spoken it. Let the house of your servant be blessed forever with your blessing.”
