rsv@1Chronicles:17:17 @ And this was a small thing in thy eyes, O God; thou hast also spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast shown me future generations, O LORD God!
rsv@1Chronicles:17:18 @ And what more can David say to thee for honoring thy servant? For thou knowest thy servant.
rsv@1Chronicles:17:19 @ For thy servant's sake, O LORD, and according to thy own heart, thou hast wrought all this greatness, in making known all these great things.
rsv@1Chronicles:17:20 @ There is none like thee, O LORD, and there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
rsv@1Chronicles:17:21 @ What other nation on earth is like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem to be his people, making for thyself a name for great and terrible things, in driving out nations before thy people whom thou didst redeem from Egypt?
rsv@1Chronicles:17:22 @ And thou didst make thy people Israel to be thy people for ever; and thou, O LORD, didst become their God.
rsv@1Chronicles:17:23 @ And now, O LORD, let the word which thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as thou hast spoken;
rsv@1Chronicles:17:24 @ and thy name will be established and magnified for ever, saying, `The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, is Israel's God,' and the house of thy servant David will be established before thee.
rsv@1Chronicles:17:25 @ For thou, my God, hast revealed to thy servant that thou wilt build a house for him; therefore thy servant has found courage to pray before thee.
rsv@1Chronicles:17:26 @ And now, O LORD, thou art God, and thou hast promised this good thing to thy servant;
rsv@1Chronicles:17:27 @ now therefore may it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may continue for ever before thee; for what thou, O LORD, hast blessed is blessed for ever."
