22 Therefore you are great, Yahweh God: for there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
Lord Yahweh, you have begun to show your servant your greatness, and your strong hand: for what god is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to your works, and according to your mighty acts?
Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders?
There is no one like you among the gods, Lord, Nor any deeds like your deeds.
For great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised: He also is to be feared above all gods.
There is none holy as Yahweh; For there is none besides you, Neither is there any rock like our God.
To you it was shown, that you might know that Yahweh he is God; there is none else besides him.
For great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised! He is to be feared above all gods.
Yahweh, God of hosts, who is a mighty one, like you? Yah, your faithfulness is around you.
> Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised, In the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
There is none like you, Yahweh; you are great, and your name is great in might. Who should not fear you, King of the nations? for to you does it appertain; because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is none like you.
Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised! His greatness is unsearchable.
For I know that Yahweh is great, That our Lord is above all gods.
See now that I, even I, am he, There is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal; There is none who can deliver out of my hand.
and that you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son's son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that you may know that I am Yahweh."
Therefore tell the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: I don't do [this] for your sake, house of Israel, but for my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations, where you went.
Look to me, and be you saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else.

Commentary on 2 Samuel 7 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 7
Still the ark is David's care as well as his joy. In this chapter we have,
2Sa 7:1-3
Here is,
2Sa 7:4-17
We have here a full revelation of God's favour to David and the kind intentions of that favour, the notices and assurances of which God sent him by Nathan the prophet, whom he entrusted to deliver this long message to him. The design of it is to take him off from his purpose of building the temple and it was therefore sent,
