1Chronicles:17:16-27
jps@1Chronicles:17:16 @ Then David the king went in, and sat before the LORD; and he said: 'Who am I, O LORD God, and what is my house, that Thou hast brought me thus far?
jps@1Chronicles:17:17 @ And this was a small thing in Thine eyes, O God; but Thou hast spoken of Thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me after the manner of a man of high degree, O LORD God.
jps@1Chronicles:17:18 @ What can David say yet more unto Thee concerning the honour which is done to Thy servant? for Thou knowest Thy servant.
jps@1Chronicles:17:19 @ O LORD, for Thy servant's sake, and according to Thine own heart, hast Thou wrought all this greatness, to make known all these great things.
jps@1Chronicles:17:20 @ O LORD, there is none like Thee, neither is there any God beside Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
jps@1Chronicles:17:21 @ And who is like Thy people Israel, a nation one in the earth, whom God went to redeem unto Himself for a people, to make Thee a name by great and tremendous things, in driving out nations from before Thy people, whom Thou didst redeem out of Egypt.
jps@1Chronicles:17:22 @ For Thy people Israel didst Thou make Thine own people for ever; and Thou, LORD, becamest their God.
jps@1Chronicles:17:23 @ And now, O LORD, let the word that Thou hast spoken concerning Thy servant, and concerning his house, be established for ever, and do as Thou hast spoken.
jps@1Chronicles:17:24 @ Yea, let it be established, and let Thy name be magnified for ever, that it may be said: The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel; and the house of David Thy servant shall be established before Thee.
jps@1Chronicles:17:25 @ For Thou, O my God, hast revealed to Thy servant that Thou wilt build him a house; therefore hath Thy servant taken heart to pray before Thee.
jps@1Chronicles:17:26 @ And now, O LORD, Thou alone art God, and hast promised this good thing unto Thy servant;
jps@1Chronicles:17:27 @ and now it hath pleased Thee to bless the house of Thy servant, that it may continue for ever before Thee; for Thou, O LORD, hast blessed, and so let Thy servant be blessed for ever.'
