¹⁷ And now, O Lord God of Israel, let Your word come true, which You have spoken to Your servant David.

⁵ that I may establish the ^(A)oath which I have sworn to your fathers, to give them ^(B)‘a land flowing with milk and honey,’ as it is this day.” ’ ”

And I answered and said, ^[a]“So be it, Lord.”

¹⁴ and he said: “Lord God of Israel, ^(A)there is no God in heaven or on earth like You, who keep Your ^(B)covenant and mercy with Your servants who walk before You with all their hearts.

⁴ And he said: “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who has fulfilled with His hands what He spoke with His mouth to my father David, ^(A)saying,

²⁵ “Now, O Lord God, the word which You have spoken concerning Your servant and concerning his house, establish it forever and do as You have said. ²⁶ So let Your name be magnified forever, saying, ‘The Lord of hosts is the God over Israel.’ And let the house of Your servant David be established before You. ²⁷ For You, O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, have revealed this to Your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house.’ Therefore Your servant has found it in his heart to pray this prayer to You.

²⁸ “And now, O Lord God, You are God, and ^(A)Your words are true, and You have promised this goodness to Your servant. ²⁹ Now therefore, let it please You to bless the house of Your servant, that it may continue before You forever; for You, O Lord God, have spoken it, and with Your blessing let the house of Your servant be blessed ^(B)forever.”

¹⁰ and they ^(A)saw the God of Israel. And there was under His feet as it were a paved work of ^(B)sapphire stone, and it was like the ^(C)very^[a] heavens in its clarity.
