10 David's Prayer
10 David praised the Lord in the presence of the whole assembly, saying, 10 "Praise be to you, O Lord, 10 God of our father Israel, 10 from everlasting to everlasting.
11 Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power 11 and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, 11 for everything in heaven and earth is yours. 11 Yours, O Lord, is the kingdom; 11 you are exalted as head over all.
12 Wealth and honor come from you; 12 you are the ruler of all things. 12 In your hands are strength and power 12 to exalt and give strength to all.
13 Now, our God, we give you thanks, 13 and praise your glorious name.
14 "But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand. 15 We are aliens and strangers in your sight, as were all our forefathers. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope. 16 O Lord our God, as for all this abundance that we have provided for building you a temple for your Holy Name, it comes from your hand, and all of it belongs to you.
