2 Samuel 7:19 In-Context

17 Nathan told David everything that God had revealed to him.
18 Then King David went into the Tent of the Lord's presence, sat down and prayed, "Sovereign Lord, I am not worthy of what you have already done for me, nor is my family.
19 Yet now you are doing even more, Sovereign Lord; you have made promises about my descendants in the years to come. And you let a man see this, Sovereign Lord!
20 What more can I say to you! You know me, your servant.
21 It was your will and purpose to do this; you have done all these great things in order to instruct me.
