Psalm 89:19–37

¹⁹Formerly You spoke in vision to Your ¹holy ²ones,

And said, “I have bestowed help to a ^amighty one;

I have exalted one ^bchosen from the people.

²⁰“I have ^afound David My ¹servant;

With My holy ^boil I have anointed him,

²¹With whom ^aMy hand will be established;

My arm also will ^bstrengthen him.

²²“The enemy will not ¹deceive him,

Nor the ^2ason of unrighteousness afflict him.

²³“But I shall ^acrush his adversaries before him,

And strike those who hate him.

²⁴“My ^afaithfulness and My lovingkindness will be with him,

And in My name his ^bhorn will be exalted.

²⁵“I shall also set his hand ^aon the sea

And his right hand on the rivers.

²⁶“He will call to Me, ‘You are ^amy Father,

My God, and the ^brock of my salvation.’

²⁷“I also shall make him My ^afirstborn,

The ^bhighest of the kings of the earth.

²⁸“My ^alovingkindness I will keep for him forever,

And My ^bcovenant shall be confirmed to him.

²⁹“So I will set up his ^aseed to endure forever

And his ^bthrone ^cas the days of heaven.

³⁰“If his sons ^aforsake My law

And do not walk in My judgments,

³¹If they profane My statutes

And do not keep My commandments,

³²Then I will punish their transgression with the ^arod

And their iniquity with striking.

³³“But I will not break off ^aMy lovingkindness from him,

Nor deal falsely in My faithfulness.

³⁴“My ^acovenant I will not profane,

Nor will I ^balter what comes forth from My lips.

³⁵“¹Once I have ^asworn by My holiness;

I will not lie to David.

³⁶“His ^aseed shall endure forever

And his ^bthrone ^cas the sun before Me.

³⁷“It shall be established forever ^alike the moon,

And the ^bwitness in the sky is faithful.” ¹Selah.
