2 Samuel 7:21-23
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
21 Because of thy promise, and according to thy own heart, thou hast wrought all this greatness, to make thy servant know it. 22 Therefore thou art great, O Lord God; for there is none like thee, and there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. 23 What other[a] nation on earth is like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem to be his people, making himself a name, and doing for them[b] great and terrible things, by driving out[c] before his people a nation and its gods?[d]
