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.
