25 Maintenant, Éternel Dieu, fais subsister jusque dans l’éternité la parole que tu as prononcée sur ton serviteur et sur sa maison, et agis selon ta parole.
26 Que ton nom soit à jamais glorifié, et que l’on dise: L’Éternel des armées est le Dieu d’Israël! Et que la maison de ton serviteur David soit affermie devant toi!
27 Car toi-même, Éternel des armées, Dieu d’Israël, tu t’es révélé à ton serviteur, en disant: Je te fonderai une maison! C’est pourquoi ton serviteur a pris courage pour t’adresser cette prière.
28 Maintenant, Seigneur Éternel, tu es Dieu, et tes paroles sont vérité, et tu as annoncé cette grâce à ton serviteur.
29 Veuille donc bénir la maison de ton serviteur, afin qu’elle subsiste à toujours devant toi! Car c’est toi, Seigneur Éternel, qui as parlé, et par ta bénédiction la maison de ton serviteur sera bénie éternellement.
