In context
18 Then David the king went in, and sat before the Lord; and he said, "Who am I, Lord God, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?
19 This was yet a small thing in your eyes, Lord God; but you have spoken also of your servant's house for a great while to come; and this after the way of men, Lord God!
20 What more can David say to you? For you know your servant, Lord God.
21 For your word's sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make your servant know it.
22 Therefore you are great, Lord God. For there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
23 What one nation in the earth is like your people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, and to make himself a name, and to do great things for you, and awesome things for your land, before your people, whom you redeem to yourself out of Egypt, from the nations and their gods?
24 You established for yourself your people Israel to be a people to you forever; and you, Lord, became their God.
