^{18 Ref} Then David the king went in, and sat before Yahweh; and he said, Who am I, Lord Yahweh, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?

^{19 Ref} This was yet a small thing in your eyes, Lord Yahweh; but you have spoken also of your servant's house for a great while to come; and this [too] after the manner of men, Lord Yahweh!

^{20 Ref} What can David say more to you? for you know your servant, Lord Yahweh.

^{21 Ref} For your word's sake, and according to your own heart, have you worked all this greatness, to make your servant know it.

^{22 Ref} Therefore you are great, Yahweh God: for there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

^{23 Ref} What one nation in the earth is like your people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, and to make him a name, and to do great things for you, and awesome things for your land, before your people, whom you redeem to you out of Egypt, [from] the nations and their gods?

^{24 Ref} You did establish to yourself your people Israel to be a people to you forever; and you, Yahweh, became their God.

^{25 Ref} Now, Yahweh God, the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, confirm you it forever, and do as you have spoken.
