Psalm 89:1–14

¹I will sing forever about the evidence of your mercy, O Lord. 

I will tell about your faithfulness to every generation. 

²I said, “Your mercy will last forever. 

Your faithfulness stands firm in the heavens.” 

³⸤You said,⸥ “I have made a promise^ato my chosen one. 

I swore this oath to my servant David: 

⁴‘I will make your dynasty continue forever. 

I built your throne to last throughout every generation.’ ” 

Selah 

⁵O Lord, the heavens praise your miracles 

and your faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones. 

⁶Who in the skies can compare with the Lord? 

Who among the heavenly beings is like the Lord? 

⁷God is terrifying in the council of the holy ones. 

He is greater and more awe-inspiring than those who surround him. 

⁸O Lord God of Armies, who is like you? 

Mighty Lord, even your faithfulness surrounds you. 

⁹You rule the raging sea. 

When its waves rise, you quiet them. 

¹⁰You crushed Rahab;^bit was like a corpse. 

With your strong arm you scattered your enemies. 

¹¹The heavens are yours. 

The earth is also yours. 

You made the world and everything in it. 

¹²You created north and south. 

Mount Tabor and Mount Hermon sing your name joyfully. 

¹³Your arm is mighty. 

Your hand is strong. 

Your right hand is lifted high. 

¹⁴Righteousness and justice are the foundations of your throne. 

Mercy and truth stand in front of you.
