7:24And You have established Your people Israel to be a people to You forever, and You, O Jehovah, became their God.
Compare

7:25And now, O Jehovah God, confirm forever the word which You have spoken concerning Your servant and concerning his house, and do as You have spoken.
Compare
-
7:26And may Your name be magnified forever when men say, Jehovah of hosts is God over Israel; and the house of Your servant David will be established before You.
Compare

7:27For You, O Jehovah of hosts, God of Israel, have revealed 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.
Compare

7:28And now, O Lord Jehovah, You are God, and Your words are true, and You have spoken this good matter to Your servant;
Compare
-
7:29Now therefore may it please You to bless the house of Your servant, that it may be before You forever; for You, O Lord Jehovah, have spoken it. And with Your blessing may the house of Your servant be blessed forever.
