David Offers a Prayer to God King David went in, sat before the LORD, and said,“Who am I, O Sovereign LORD, and what is my family, that you should have brought me to this point?
And you didn’t stop there, O LORD God! You have also spoken about the future of your servant’s family. Is this your usual way of dealing with men, O Sovereign LORD?
What more can David say to you? You have given your servant special recognition, O Sovereign LORD!
For the sake of your promise and according to your purpose you have done this great thing in order to reveal it to your servant.
Therefore you are great, O Sovereign LORD, for there is none like you! There is no God besides you! What we have heard is true!
Who is like your people, Israel, a unique nation on the earth? Their God went to claim a nation for himself and to make a name for himself! You did great and awesome acts for your land, before your people whom you delivered for yourself from the Egyptian empire and its gods.
You made Israel your very own people for all time. You, O LORD, became their God.
