Exegesis

The final clause ū-veit-Dāwîd ’av-dê-ḵā nakhon lə-fa-nê-ḵā {וּבֵית־דָּוִ֥יד עַבְדְּךָ֖ נָכ֥וֹן לְפָנֶֽיךָ | ū-veit-dā-wîd ’av-dê-ḵā nā-ḵōn lə-fa-nê-ḵā} ‘and the house of David your servant is established before you’ uses the passive participle nakhon to link David’s dynasty to God’s presence and the construct avdekha to mark loyal relationship. The English renderings preserve the verse’s prayerful tone and confessional proclamation, aligning “let it be established” and “may Your name become great” with formal parallel petitions and “let it be confirmed” and “may Your reputation be honored” in dynamic to reflect Hebrew modal nuance.
