16 “And your house and your reign are to be steadfast forever before you – your throne is established forever.” ’ ”
17 According to all these words and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to Dawiḏ.
18 And Sovereign Dawiḏ went in and sat before יהוה and he said, “Who am I, O Master יהוה? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?
19 “And yet this was a small matter in Your eyes, O Master יהוה. And You have also spoken of Your servant’s house for a great while to come. And is this the teaching of man, O Master יהוה?
20 “And what more does Dawiḏ say to You? For You, Master יהוה, know Your servant.
21 “Because of Your word, and according to Your own heart, You have done all this greatness, to make it known to Your servant.
22 “You are great indeed, O Master יהוה. For there is none like You, and there is no Elohim but You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
