1 Chronicles 17:18 Context
16¶ And Dauid the king came, and sate before the Lord, and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought mee hitherto? 17And yet this was a small thing in thine eyes, O God: for thou hast also spoken of thy seruants house, for a great while to come, and hast regarded mee according to the estate of a man of high degree, O Lord God. 18What can Dauid speake more to thee for the honour of thy seruant? for thou knowest thy seruant. 19O Lord, for thy seruants sake, and according to thine owne heart, hast thou done all this greatnesse in making knowen all these great things. 20O Lord, there is none like thee neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that we haue heard with our eares.
