18For the holy Lord of Israel keeps our defender and king.
19In a vision of old you did speak in this way to the one whom you loved: “A crown I have set on the hero I chose to be over the people
20“I found my servant David, and anointed with holy oil.
21My hand will be with him forever, my arm will give him strength.
22“No enemy will dare to assail him, nor the wicked to oppress him;
23but his foes I will shatter before him, I will strike down those who hate him.
24“My loyal love shall attend him, and I will lift him to honour.
25I will set his hand on the sea, and his right hand on the rivers.
26“As for him, he will call me ‘My father, my God, and my rock of salvation.’
27And I will make him my first-born, highest of kings on the earth.
28“My love will I keep for him ever, my covenant with him shall stand fast.
29His line will I make everlasting, and his throne as the days of the heavens.
30“If his children forsake my law, and walk not as I have ordained;
31if they profane my statutes, and do not keep my commandments;
32“I will punish their sin with the rod, their iniquity with scourges.
33But my love will I not take from him, nor will I belie my faithfulness.
34“I will not profane my covenant by changing the word that has passed my lips.
