The correct answer is C: “You are holy, holy, holy, O Lord God almighty.” These words do not appear in David’s prayer in 2 Samuel 7 after receiving the Davidic Covenant.

The correct answer is C. You are holy, holy, holy, O Lord God almighty. While these words are famously known as the Trisagion and are central to our liturgical life, they are not part of David’s prayer in 2 Samuel 7 after receiving the Davidic Covenant. In his prayer (2 Samuel 7:18–29), David says the following: "For You know Your servant, O Lord God" (reflecting 2 Samuel 7:20). "Therefore You are magnified, O my Lord... there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You" (reflecting 2 Samuel 7:22). "Who is like Your people Israel..." (reflecting 2 Samuel 7:23). The phrase "Holy, holy, holy" (the Seraphic Hymn) is found in Isaiah 6:3 and Revelation 4:8, but it does not appear in David's response to the covenant in this specific passage.
