2 Samuel 7:23-29 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

23. And who is like Your people Israel? God came to one nation on earth in order to redeem a people for Himself, to make a name for Himself, and to perform for them great and awesome acts, driving out nations and their gods before Your people You redeemed for Yourself from Egypt.

24. You established Your people Israel to be Your own people forever, and You, Lord, have become their God.

25. Now, Lord God, fulfill the promise forever that You have made to Your servant and his house. Do as You have promised,

26. so that Your name will be exalted forever, when it is said, “The Lord of Hosts is God over Israel.” The house of Your servant David will be established before You

27. since You, Lord of Hosts, God of Israel, have revealed this to Your servant when You said, “I will build a house for you.” Therefore, Your servant has found the courage to pray this prayer to You.

28. Lord God, You are God; Your words are true, and You have promised this grace to Your servant.

29. Now, please bless Your servant’s house so that it will continue before You forever. For You, Lord God, have spoken, and with Your blessing Your servant’s house will be blessed forever.
