27 For You, O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, have [a]revealed this to Your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house (royal dynasty).’ For that reason Your servant has found [b]courage to pray this prayer to You. 28 And now, O Lord God, You are God, and Your words are truth, and You have promised this good thing to Your servant. 29 Therefore now, may it please You to bless the house (royal dynasty) of Your servant, so that it may continue forever before You; for You, O Lord God, have spoken it, and with Your blessing may the house of Your servant be blessed forever.”
