1 Chronicles 17:20
18 What more can David say to You for so honoring Your servant? For You know Your servant,
19 O LORD. For the sake of Your servant and according to Your own heart, You have accomplished this great thing and revealed all Your greatness.
O LORD, there is none like You, and there is no God but You, according to everything we have heard with our own ears.
21 And who is like Your people Israel—the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem as a people for Himself? You made a name for Yourself through great and awesome wonders by driving out nations from before Your people, whom You redeemed from Egypt.
22 For You have made Your people Israel Your very own forever, and You, O LORD, have become their God.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
