19Long ago you spoke in a vision to your faithful ones; you said, “I have set a crown on a mighty one.” I have raised up one chosen from among the people.
20I have chosen David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him.
21My hand will support him; my arm will strengthen him.
22No enemy will deceive him; no son of wickedness will oppress him.
23I will crush his enemies before him; I will kill those who hate him.
24My truth and my covenant faithfulness will be with him; by my name he will be victorious.
