For I said, “Steadfast love will be built up forever;

in the heavens you will establish your faithfulness.”

You have said, “I have made a covenant with my chosen one;

I have sworn to David my servant:

‘I will establish your offspring forever,

and build your throne for all generations.’ ” Selah

Let the heavens praise your wonders, O Lord,

your faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones!

NIVNew International Version (2011)

I will declare that your love stands firm forever,

that you have established your faithfulness in heaven itself.

You said, “I have made a covenant with my chosen one,

I have sworn to David my servant,

‘I will establish your line forever

and make your throne firm through all generations.’ ”

The heavens praise your wonders, Lord,

your faithfulness too, in the assembly of the holy ones.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

For I will declare,

“Faithful love is built up forever;

you establish your faithfulness in the heavens.”

The Lord said,

“I have made a covenant with my chosen one;

I have sworn an oath to David my servant:

‘I will establish your offspring forever

and build up your throne for all generations.’ ”

Selah

Lord, the heavens praise your wonders—

your faithfulness also—

in the assembly of the holy ones.

NLTNew Living Translation

Your unfailing love will last forever.

Your faithfulness is as enduring as the heavens.

The Lord said, “I have made a covenant with David, my chosen servant.

I have sworn this oath to him:

‘I will establish your descendants as kings forever;

they will sit on your throne from now until eternity.’ ”

Interlude

All heaven will praise your great wonders, Lord;

myriads of angels will praise you for your faithfulness.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

For I say, “Forever your loyal love is built up.

The heavens you have established with your faithfulness in them.”

“I made a covenant with my chosen one;

I swore an oath to David my servant:

‘I will establish your descendants forever,

and I will build up your throne from generation to generation.’ ” Selah

And so the heavens will praise your wonderful deed, O Yahweh,

even your faithfulness, in the assembly of the holy ones.
