I Kings 8's Allusion to II Samuel 7, Part III

Here's another allusion in I Kings 8 to II Samuel 7:

^NRS 1 Kings 8:26 Therefore, O God of Israel, let your word be confirmed, which you promised to your servant my father David.

^NRS 2 Samuel 7:27 For you, O LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have made this revelation to your servant, saying, 'I will build you a house'; therefore your servant has found courage to pray this prayer to you.

Comments: There's a lot of common vocabulary between I Kings 8 and II Samuel 7: "diber," "eved." Sometimes, I Kings 8 uses a different word, as when he uses "yeamen" (confirm) for II Samuel 7:25's "haqem" (confirm). I thought "emeth" (truth) was like "yeamen" (confirm), so I put both in red, but I may not mention that in my paper. Overall, I Kings 8:26 and the above verses of II Samuel 7 convey the same idea: God promised David an everlasting dynasty, and Solomon (like David in II Samuel 7) wants God to confirm that.
