Wherefore thou art great, O LORD God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

Verse 22 is found in chapter 7 of 2 Samuel. David enters and sits before the Lord to respond to the promise he has received. His prayer begins with humility: he recognizes that his own house does not deserve such treatment and recalls Israel’s uniqueness among the nations. David does not interpret his election as personal merit, but as an act of God. The prayer turns the dynastic promise into worship and recognition of the particular identity God has given his people.

Darum bist du auch groß geachtet, HERR, Gott; denn es ist keiner wie du und ist kein Gott als du, nach allem, was wir mit unsern Ohren gehört haben.
Por tanto tú te has engrandecido, Jehová Dios: por cuanto no hay como tú, ni hay Dios fuera de ti, conforme a todo lo que hemos oído con nuestros oídos.
Por eso eres grande, Señor Jehová. No hay nadie como tú ni hay Dios fuera de ti, conforme a todo lo que hemos oído con nuestros oídos.
Que tu es donc grand, Eternel Dieu! car nul n'est semblable à toi, et il n'y a point d'autre Dieu que toi, d'après tout ce que nous avons entendu de nos oreilles.
Perciò, Signore Iddio, tu sei magnificato; imperocchè non vi è niuno pari a te, e non vi è alcun Dio fuor che te, secondo tutte le cose che noi abbiamo udite con le nostre orecchie.
Portanto, grandioso és, ó SENHOR Deus, porque não há semelhante a ti, e não há outro Deus senão tu só, segundo tudo o que temos ouvido com os nossos ouvidos.
因此,主耶和華啊,你本為大;照我們耳中一切所聽見的,沒有可比你的,除你以外再沒有上帝。
