Contextual Overview

16And David the king comes in and sits before YHWH, and says, "Who [am] I, O YHWH God, and what [is] my house, that You have brought me here? 17And this is small in Your eyes, O God, and You speak concerning the house of Your servant far off, and have seen me as a type of the man who is on high, O YHWH God! 18What more does David add to You for the honor of Your servant; and You have known Your servant. 19O YHWH, for Your servant's sake, and according to Your own heart You have done all this greatness, to make known all these great things. 20O YHWH, there is none like You, and there is no god except You, according to all that we have heard with our ears. 21And who [is] as Your people Israel, one nation in the earth whom God has gone to ransom to Himself for a people, to make a great and fearful name for Yourself, to cast out nations from the presence of Your people whom You have ransomed out of Egypt? 22Indeed, You appoint Your people Israel to Yourself for a people for all time, and You, O YHWH, have been to them for God. 23And now, O YHWH, let the word that You have spoken concerning Your servant, and concerning his house, be steadfast for all time, and do as You have spoken; 24and let it be steadfast, and Your Name is great for all time, saying, YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, [is] God to Israel, and the house of Your servant David is established before You; 25for You, O my God, have uncovered the ear of Your servant—to build a house for him, therefore Your servant has found [desire] to pray before You.
