Contextual Overview
12 Then Solomon prayed: "You, Lord , have placed the sun in the sky, yet you have chosen to live in clouds and darkness. 13 Now I have built a majestic temple for you, a place for you to live in forever." 14 As the people stood there, King Solomon turned to face them, and he asked God's blessing on them. 15 He said, "Praise the Lord God of Israel! He has kept the promise he made to my father David, when he told him, 16 ‘From the time I brought my people out of Egypt, I have not chosen any city in all the land of Israel in which a temple should be built where I would be worshiped. But I chose you, David, to rule my people.'" 17 And Solomon continued, "My father David planned to build a temple for the worship of the Lord God of Israel, 18 but the Lord said to him, ‘You were right in wanting to build a temple for me, 19 but you will never build it. It is your son, your own son, who will build my temple.' 20 "And now the Lord has kept his promise. I have succeeded my father as king of Israel, and I have built the Temple for the worship of the Lord God of Israel. 21 I have also provided a place in the Temple for the Covenant Box containing the stone tablets of the covenant which the Lord made with our ancestors when he brought them out of Egypt."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he said, blessed be the Lord God of Israel,.... All praise and glory, honour and blessing, be ascribed to the Lord; who had afresh shown himself to be Israel's covenant God, by taking up his residence among them in the temple he had filled with his glory:
which spake with his mouth to David my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled it; who graciously promised him he should have a son that should build an house for him, and which he had by his power and providence faithfully performed; or rather which spake concerning David, so Noldius x; for God did not speak with his mouth to David, but to Nathan, of him: saying; as follows.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The exact words of 2 Samuel 7:0 are not reproduced; only their general sense is given. In 1 Kings 8:18, what was merely tacitly implied was regarded as actually “said.”
