2 Samuel 7:22-24

David's Prayer of Gratitude

²² _y Therefore you are great, O Lord God. _z For there is none like you, and there is no God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears. ²³ _a And who is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom God went to redeem to be his people, making himself a name _b and doing for them ₁ great and awesome things by driving out ₂ before your people, whom _c you redeemed for yourself from Egypt, a nation and its gods? ²⁴ _d And you established for yourself your people Israel to be your people forever. And you, O Lord, became their God.
