1 Chronicles 17:24-26

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁴ And let thy name remain and be magnified for ever: and let it be said: The Lord of hosts is God of Israel, and the house of David his servant remaineth before him.

²⁵ For thou, O Lord my God, hast revealed to the ear of thy servant, that thou wilt build him a house: and therefore thy servant hath found confidence to pray before thee.

²⁶ And now O Lord, thou art God: and thou hast promised to thy servant such great benefits.
