17(89-18) For Thou art the glory of their strength; and in Thy favour our horn is exalted.
18(89-19) For of the LORD is our shield; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19(89-20) Then Thou spokest in vision to Thy godly ones, and saidst: 'I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
20(89-21) I have found David My servant; with My holy oil have I anointed him;
21(89-22) With whom My hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.
22(89-23) The enemy shall not exact from him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23(89-24) And I will beat to pieces his adversaries before him, and smite them that hate him.
24(89-25) But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him; and through My name shall his horn be exalted.
25(89-26) I will set his hand also on the sea, and his right hand on the rivers.
26(89-27) He shall call unto Me: Thou art my Father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27(89-28) I also will appoint him first-born, the highest of the kings of the earth.
28(89-29) For ever will I keep for him My mercy, and My covenant shall stand fast with him.
29(89-30) His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30(89-31) If his children forsake My law, and walk not in Mine ordinances;
31(89-32) If they profane My statutes, and keep not My commandments;
32(89-33) Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with strokes.
33(89-34) But My mercy will I not break off from him, nor will I be false to My faithfulness.
34(89-35) My covenant will I not profane, nor alter that which is gone out of My lips.
