Contextual Overview
16 Then entered King David, and tarried before Yahweh, - and said, Who am, I, O Yahweh God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto; 17 and hast made this seem little in thine eyes, O God, in that thou hast spoken concerning the house of thy servant, for a great while to come? Thus wilt thou provide for me, according to the rank of manhood, and hast exalted me, O Yahweh God! 18 What, yet further, can David say unto thee, thus to honour thy servant, - seeing that, thou thyself, knowest, thine own servant? 19 O Yahweh, for the sake of thy servant, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this great thing, - making known all the great things. 20 O Yahweh, there is none like unto thee, yea there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. 21 Who then is like thy people Israel, a nation alone in the earth, - whom God went to redeem, to be his own people, to make for thyself a name for great and fearful things, to drive out, nations, from before thy people, whom thou didst redeem out of Egypt; 22 and didst appoint thy people Israel for thyself as a people, unto times age-abiding, - thou thyself, also, O Yahweh, becoming their God? 23 Now, therefore, O Yahweh, the word which thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, be it steadfast unto times age-abiding, - and do as thou hast spoken: 24 yea let it be steadfast, and so let thy Name be magnified unto times age-abiding, saying, Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, is a God to Israel! seeing that, the house of David thy servant, is established before thee. 25 For, thou, O my God, hast unveiled the ear of thy servant, that thou wilt build for him a house, - for this cause, hath thy servant found it in his heart to pray before thee.
