16
And king David came and sat before the Lord, and said: Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my house, that thou shouldst give such things to me?
17
But even this hath seemed little in thy sight, and therefore thou hast also spoken concerning the house of thy servant for the time to come: and hast made me remarkable above all men, O Lord God.
18
What can David add more, seeing thou hast thus glorified thy servant, and known him?
19
O Lord, for thy servant’s sake, according to thy own heart, thou hast shewn all this magnificence, and wouldst have all the great things to be known.
20
O Lord there is none like thee: and here is no other God beside thee, of all whom we have heard of with our ears.
