Inoltre il tuo servo in mezzo al popolo che tu hai scelto, un popolo grande, troppo numeroso per essere contato e calcolato.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And thy servant [is] in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen,.... To be his special and peculiar people above all people on the earth; this is not to be understood locally, though Jerusalem, where his palace was, was in the middle of the land; but of the exercise of his office, he being placed over the people, and among them, and having the care and inspection of them:

a great people, that cannot be numbered and counted for multitude; being for number as the stars in the sky, and as the sand upon the seashore, as had been promised.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Compare the marginal references. Solomon regards the promises as fulfilled in the existing greatness and glory of the Jewish nation.
