Psalms 89:18-23

¹⁸Yahweh, you gave us the one who protects us MET; you, the holy God whom we Israelis worship, chose a king for us.

¹⁹Long ago you spoke in a vision to one of your servants/prophets, saying, “I have helped a famous soldier; I chose him from among all the people to be a king.

²⁰That man is David, the one who will serve me faithfully, and I anointed him with sacred olive oil to make him king.

²¹I MTY will always strengthen him; with my power MTY I will make him strong.

²²His enemies will never find ways to defeat him, and wicked people will never defeat him.

²³I will crush his enemies in front of him and get rid of those who hate him.
