2 Samuel 7:17–21 · Berean Standard Bible

17 So Nathan relayed to David all the words of this entire vision.

18 Then King David went in, sat before the LORD, and said, “Who am I, O Lord GOD, and what is my house, that You have brought me this far?

19 And as if this was a small thing in Your eyes, O Lord GOD, You have also spoken about the future of the house of Your servant. Is this Your custom with man, O Lord GOD?

20 What more can David say to You? For You know Your servant, O Lord GOD.
