Psalms 89:17-21

¹⁷They rely on you, their glory and strength; by your grace you lift us up.

¹⁸Yes, the Lord is the one who shields us, and our king belongs to the Holy One of Israel.

¹⁹Once you spoke in a vision to your faithful servant and said, “I have given strength to the warrior I have chosen from the people to become king.

²⁰I have selected David my servant, and I have anointed him with the oil of my holiness.

²¹I have placed my hand on him to steady him; and I have made him strong by my powerful arm.
