18 Then King David went and sat in the Lord’s presence. He asked:Who am I, Lord God, and of what significance is my family that you have brought me this far?
19 But even this was too small in your eyes, Lord God! Now you have also spoken about your servant’s dynasty in the future and the generation to come, Lord God!
20 What more can David say to you? You know your servant, Lord God.
21 For the sake of your word and according to your own will, you have done this great thing so that your servant would know it.
22 That is why you are so great, Lord God! No one can compare to you, no god except you, just as we have always heard with our own ears.
23 And who can compare to your people Israel? They are the one nation on earth that God redeemed as his own people, establishing his name by doing great and awesome things for them, by driving out nations and their gods before your people, whom you redeemed from Egypt.
24 You established your people Israel as your own people forever, and you, Lord, became their God.
