Divrey Hayamim Alef 17:16 In-Context

14 But I will set him in Mine Bais and in My Malchut ad olam, and his kisse shall be established ad olam.

15 According to all these devarim, and according to all this chazon (revelation), so did Natan speak unto Dovid.

16 And Dovid HaMelech came and sat before Hashem, and said, Who am I, Hashem Elohim, and what is mine bais, that Thou hast brought me hitherto?

17 And as if this were not sufficient in Thine eyes, O Elohim, Thou hast also spoken of Bais Avdecha in the future afar off, and hast regarded me according to the estate of ha’adam hama’alah (the man of high degree), O Hashem Elohim.

18 What more can Dovid speak to Thee regarding the kavod of Thy eved? For Thou hast da’as of Thy eved.
