²⁰ “What more can David say^(A) to you? For you know^(B) your servant,^(C) Sovereign Lord. ²¹ For the sake of your word and according to your will, you have done this great thing and made it known to your servant.

²² “How great^(D) you are,^(E) Sovereign Lord! There is no one like^(F) you, and there is no God^(G) but you, as we have heard with our own ears.^{(H) 23} And who is like your people Israel^(I)—the one nation on earth that God went out to redeem as a people for himself, and to make a name^(J) for himself, and to perform great and awesome wonders^(K) by driving out nations and their gods from before your people, whom you redeemed^(L) from Egypt?^{[a] 24} You have established your people Israel as your very own^(M) forever, and you, Lord, have become their God.^(N)

²⁵ “And now, Lord God, keep forever the promise^(O) you have made concerning your servant and his house. Do as you promised, ²⁶ so that your name^(P) 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^(Q) in your sight.

²⁷ “Lord Almighty, God of Israel, you have revealed this to your servant, saying, ‘I will build a house for you.’ So your servant has found courage to pray this prayer to you. ²⁸ Sovereign Lord, you are God! Your covenant is trustworthy,^(R) and you have promised these good things to your servant. ²⁹ Now be pleased to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever in your sight; for you, Sovereign Lord, have spoken, and with your blessing^(S) the house of your servant will be blessed forever.”
