20 What more can David say to you? You have given your servant special recognition, O Lord God!
21 For the sake of your promise and according to your purpose you have done this great thing in order to reveal it to your servant.
22 Therefore you are great, O Lord God, for there is none like you! There is no God besides you! What we have heard is true!
23 Who is like your people, Israel, a unique nation on the earth? Their God went to claim a nation for himself and to make a name for himself! You did great and awesome acts for your land, before your people whom you delivered for yourself from the Egyptian empire and its gods.
24 You made Israel your very own people for all time. You, O Lord, became their God.
25 So now, O Lord God, make this promise you have made about your servant and his family a permanent reality. Do as you promised,
26 so you may gain lasting fame, as people say, ‘The Lord of hosts is God over Israel!’ The dynasty of your servant David will be established before you,
