Now therefore, O Lord, let the word which thou hast spoken to thy servant, and concerning his house, be established for ever: and do as thou hast said.
That I may accomplish the oath which I swore to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. And I answered and said: Amen, O Lord.
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.
But the Lord God of Israel chose me of all the house of my father, to be king over Israel for ever. For of Juda he chose the princes: and of the house of Juda, my father's house: and among the sons of my father, it pleased him to choose me king over all Israel.
Now therefore, O Lord God, let thy word be fulfilled, which thou hast promised to David my father: for thou hast made me king over thy great people, which is as innumerable as the dust of the earth.
