Psalm 89:19–23

19 Once you spoke in a vision,

to your faithful people you said:

“I have bestowed strength on a warrior;

I have raised up a young man from among the people.

20 I have found David my servant;

with my sacred oil I have anointed him.

21 My hand will sustain him;

surely my arm will strengthen him.

22 The enemy will not get the better of him;

the wicked will not oppress him.

23 I will crush his foes before him

and strike down his adversaries.

19 Of old you spoke in a vision to your godly one, and said:

“I have granted help to one who is mighty;

I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20 I have found David, my servant;

with my holy oil I have anointed him,

21 so that my hand shall be established with him;

my arm also shall strengthen him.

22 The enemy shall not outwit him;

the wicked shall not humble him.

23 I will crush his foes before him

and strike down those who hate him.

19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one,

And saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty;

I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

20 I have found David my servant;

With my holy oil have I anointed him:

21 With whom my hand shall be established:

Mine arm also shall strengthen him.

22 The enemy shall not exact upon him;

Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

23 And I will beat down his foes before his face,

And plague them that hate him.

19 Long ago you spoke in a vision to your faithful people.

You said, “I have raised up a warrior.

I have selected him from the common people to be king.

20 I have found my servant David.

I have anointed him with my holy oil.

21 I will steady him with my hand;

with my powerful arm I will make him strong.

22 His enemies will not defeat him,

nor will the wicked overpower him.

23 I will beat down his adversaries before him

and destroy those who hate him.

19 Once, in a vision, you spoke

to those who worship you.

You said, “I have given strength to a warrior;

I have raised up a young man from my people.

20 I have found my servant David;

I appointed him by pouring holy oil on him.

21 I will steady him with my hand

and strengthen him with my arm.

22 No enemy will make him give forced payments,

and wicked people will not defeat him.

23 I will crush his enemies in front of him;

I will defeat those who hate him.

19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints,

And saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty;

I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

20 I have found David my servant;

With my holy oil have I anointed him:

21 With whom my hand shall be established;

Mine arm also shall strengthen him.

22 The enemy shall not exact from him,

Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

23 And I will beat down his adversaries before him,

And smite them that hate him.

19 Then thou spakest in vision of thy Holy One, and saidst, I have laid help upon a mighty one; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. 20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him: 21 With whom my hand shall be established; and mine arm shall strengthen him. 22 No enemy shall exact upon him, nor the son of wickedness afflict him; 23 But I will beat down his adversaries before his face, and will smite them that hate him.

19 Once in a vision you said to your faithful ones: 

“I set a boy above warriors. 

I have raised up one chosen from the people. 

20 I found my servant David. 

I anointed him with my holy oil. 

21 My hand is ready to help him. 

My arm will also give him strength. 

22 No enemy will take him by surprise. 

No wicked person will mistreat him. 

23 I will crush his enemies in front of him 

and defeat those who hate him. 

19 You once spoke in a vision to Your loyal ones

and said: “I have granted help to a warrior;

I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20 I have found David My servant;

I have anointed him with My sacred oil.

21 My hand will always be with him,

and My arm will strengthen him.

22 The enemy will not afflict him;

no wicked man will oppress him.

23 I will crush his foes before him

and strike those who hate him.

19 Then you spoke in a vision to your faithful one and said,

“I have set the crown on one who is mighty;

I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20 I have found my servant David;

with my holy oil I have anointed him;

21 my hand shall always remain with him;

my arm also shall strengthen him.

22 The enemy shall not outwit him;

the wicked shall not humble him.

23 I will crush his foes before him

and strike down those who hate him.

19 Formerly you spoke in a vision

to your faithful ones, and said,

“I have bestowed help on a mighty man;

I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20 I have found David, my servant.

With my holy oil I have anointed him,

21 with whom my hand will be steadfast.

Surely my arm will strengthen him.

22 The enemy will not deceive him,

and no evil man will afflict him.

23 But I will crush his adversaries before him,

and I will strike those who hate him.

19 You once spoke to your faithful people in a vision.

You said, “I have given strength to a soldier.

I have raised up a young man from among the people.

20 I have found my servant David.

I have poured my sacred oil on his head.

21 My powerful hand will keep him going.

My mighty arm will give him strength.

22 No enemies will require him to bring gifts to them.

No evil person will beat him down.

23 I will crush the king’s enemies.

I will completely destroy them.

19 Once You spoke in vision to Your godly ones,

And said, “I have given help to one who is mighty;

I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20 “I have found David My servant;

With My holy oil I have anointed him,

21 With whom My hand will be established;

My arm also will strengthen him.

22 “The enemy will not deceive him,

Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

23 “But I shall crush his adversaries before him,

And strike those who hate him.
