Contextual Overview

¹⁶ David went in, sat before the Lord , and said: "Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my family, that you should have brought me to this point? ¹⁷ And you did not stop there, O God! You have also spoken about the future of your servant's family. You have revealed to me what men long to know, O Lord God. ¹⁸ What more can David say to you? You have honored your servant; you have given your servant special recognition. ¹⁹ O Lord , for the sake of your servant and according to your will, you have done this great thing in order to reveal your greatness. ²⁰ O Lord , there is none like you; there is no God besides you! What we heard is true! ²¹ And who is like your people, Israel, a unique nation in the earth? Their God went to claim a nation for himself! You made a name for yourself by doing great and awesome deeds when you drove out nations before your people whom you had delivered from the Egyptian empire and its gods. ²² You made Israel your very own nation for all time. You, O Lord , became their God. ²³ So now, O Lord , may the promise you made about your servant and his family become a permanent reality! Do as you promised, ²⁴ so it may become a reality and you may gain lasting fame, as people say, ‘The Lord who commands armies is the God of Israel.' David's dynasty will be established before you, ²⁵ for you, my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build a dynasty for him. That is why your servant has had the courage to pray to you.
