16Then KingH4428 DavidH1732 cameH935 inH935 and satH3427 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, and saidH559, “1WhoH4310 am I, LordH3068 GodH430, and whatH4310 is my houseH1004 that You have broughtH935 me thisH1988 farH1988? 17ThisH2088 wasH6994 aH6994 smallH6994 thingH6994 in Your eyesH5869, GodH430; but You have spokenH1696 of Your servant’sH5650 houseH1004 for a greatH7350 whileH7350 toH7350 comeH7350, and have viewedH7200 me according to the standardH8447 of a personH120 of highH4609 degreeH4609, LordH3068 GodH430. 18WhatH4100 moreH3254 can DavidH1732 stillH5750 say to You concerning the honorH3519 bestowed on Your servantH5650? For You knowH3045 Your servantH5650. 19LordH3068, 2for Your servant’sH5650 sakeH5668, and according to Your own heartH3820, You have accomplishedH6213 allH3605 thisH2088 greatnessH1420, to makeH3045 knownH3045 allH3605 these greatH1420 thingsH1420. 20LordH3068, thereH369 isH369 noneH369 likeH3644 You, norH369 isH369 thereH369 any GodH430 besidesH2108 You, according to everythingH3605 that we have heardH8085 with our earsH241. 21And whatH4310 oneH259 nationH1471 on the earthH776 is like Your peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, whomH834 GodH430 wentH1980 to redeemH6299 for Himself as a peopleH5971, to makeH7760 for You a nameH8034 by greatH1420 and awesomeH3372 thingsH3372, by drivingH1644 outH1644 nationsH1471 from beforeH6440 Your peopleH5971, whomH834 You redeemedH6299 from EgyptH4714? 223For You have madeH5414 Your peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 Your own peopleH5971 foreverH5704H5769, and You, LordH3068, becameH1961 their GodH430.

23“NowH6258, LordH3068, let the wordH1697 that You have spokenH1696 concerningH5921 Your servantH5650 and concerningH5921 his houseH1004 be establishedH539 foreverH5704H5769, and doH6213 justH3512 asH3512 You have spokenH1696. 24Let Your nameH8034 be establishedH539 and beH1431 greatH1431 foreverH5704H5769, sayingH559, ‘The LordH3068 of armiesH6635 is the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, a GodH430 to IsraelH3478; and the houseH1004 of Your servantH5650 DavidH1732 is establishedH3559 beforeH6440 You.’ 25For You, my GodH430, have revealedH1540H241 to Your servantH5650 that You will buildH1129 him a houseH1004; thereforeH5921H3651 Your servantH5650 has foundH4672 courage to prayH6419 beforeH6440 You. 26NowH6258, LordH3068, You are GodH430, and have 4promisedH1696 thisH2088 goodH2899 thingH2899 to Your servantH5650. 27And nowH6258 You have decidedH2974 to blessH1288 the houseH1004 of Your servantH5650, that it may 5continueH1961 foreverH5769 beforeH6440 You; for You, LordH3068, have blessedH1288, and it is blessedH1288 foreverH5769.”
