20 O Lord, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
20 "There is no one like you, Lord, and there is no God but you, as we have heard with our own ears.
20 There is none like you, O Lord, and there is no God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
20 There's none like you, God, no God but you, nothing to compare with what we've heard with our own ears.
20 O Lord, there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
20 "O Lord, there is no one like you. We have never even heard of another God like you!
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 17:20
Chapter Contents
David's purposes; God's gracious promises.
This chapter is the same as Isaiah 42:1; and it is for his sake, upon account of his mediation, that the promises are made good to all believers; it is in him, that they are yea and amen. For His sake it is done, for his sake it is made known; to him we owe all this greatness, from him we are to expect all these great things. They are the unsearchable riches of Christ, which, if by faith we see in themselves, and see in the Lord Jesus, we cannot but magnify as the only true greatness, and speak honourably of them. For this blessedness may we look amidst the trials of life, and when we feel the hand of death upon us; and seek it for our children after us.
