1 Chronicles 17
20 O LORD, there is none like You, and there is no God but You, according to everything we have heard with our own ears.
21 And who is like Your people Israel—the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem as a people for Himself? You made a name for Yourself through great and awesome wonders by driving out nations from before Your people, whom You redeemed from Egypt.
22 For You have made Your people Israel Your very own forever, and You, O LORD, have become their God.
23 And now, O LORD, let the word You have spoken concerning Your servant and his house be established forever. Do as You have promised,
24 so that Your name will be established and magnified forever when it is said, ‘The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, is God over Israel.’ And may the house of Your servant David be established before You.
