New International Version
22 “How great(A) you are,(B) Sovereign Lord! There is no one like(C) you, and there is no God(D) but you, as we have heard with our own ears.(E) 23 And who is like your people Israel(F)—the one nation on earth that God went out to redeem as a people for himself, and to make a name(G) for himself, and to perform great and awesome wonders(H) by driving out nations and their gods from before your people, whom you redeemed(I) from Egypt?[a] 24 You have established your people Israel as your very own(J) forever, and you, Lord, have become their God.(K)
25 “And now, Lord God, keep forever the promise(L) you have made concerning your servant and his house. Do as you promised, 26 so that your name(M) will be great forever. Then people will say, ‘The Lord Almighty is God over Israel!’ And the house of your servant David will be established(N) in your sight.

22 Wherefore thou art great, O Lord God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
23 And what one nation in the earth is like thy people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to himself, and to make him a name, and to do for you great things and terrible, for thy land, before thy people, which thou redeemedst to thee from Egypt, from the nations and their gods?
24 For thou hast confirmed to thyself thy people Israel to be a people unto thee for ever: and thou, Lord, art become their God.
25 And now, O Lord God, the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, establish it for ever, and do as thou hast said.
26 And let thy name be magnified for ever, saying, The Lord of hosts is the God over Israel: and let the house of thy servant David be established before thee.
