2 Samuel 7:18-24

18And kingH4428 DavidH1732 wentH935 in and satH3427 before Jehovah, and saidH559, Who am I, Lord Jehovah, and what is my houseH1004, that thou hast broughtH935 me hitherto?

19And yetH5750 this hath been a smallH6994 thing in thy sight, LordH136 Jehovah; but thou hast spokenH1696 alsoH1571 of thy servant's houseH1004 for a great while to come. And is this the manner of manH120, LordH136 Jehovah?

20And what can DavidH1732 sayH1696 more to thee? for thou, LordH136 Jehovah, knowest thy servantH5650.

21For thy word's sakeH5668, and according to thine own heartH3820, hast thou done all this greatnessH1420, to makeH6213 thy servantH5650 knowH3045 [it].

22Wherefore thou art greatH1431, Jehovah Elohim; for there is none like thee, neither is there any 1GodH430 beside thee, according to all that we have heardH8085 with our earsH241.

23And who is like thy peopleH5971, like IsraelH3478, the oneH259 nationH1471 in the earthH776 that 2GodH430 wentH1980 to redeemH6299 to be a peopleH5971 to himself, and to makeH7760 himself a nameH8034, and to do for them great things and terrible, for thy landH776, before thy peopleH5971, which thou redeemedst to thyself from EgyptH4714, from the nationsH1471 and their 3godsH430?

24And thou hast establishedH3559 to thyself thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 to beH1961 a peopleH5971 unto thee for everH5769; and thou, Jehovah, art becomeH1961 their 4GodH430.
