2(89:3) For I have said, To eternity will kindness be built up: the heavens—yea, in these wilt thou establish thy faithfulness.
3(89:4) “I have made a covenant with my elect, I have sworn unto David my servant,
4(89:5) Unto eternity will I establish thy seed, and I will build up thy throne, from generation to generation.” Selah.
5(89:6) And the heavens praise thy wonder, O Lord: also thy faithfulness in the assembly of holy ones.
6(89:7) For who in the sky can be compared unto the Lord? who can be likened unto the Lord among the sons of the mighty?
7(89:8) God is greatly terrific in the secret council of the holy ones and fear-inspiring over all that are about him.
8(89:9) O Lord God of hosts, who is powerful, like thee, Eternal! and thy faithfulness is round about thee.
9(89:10) Thou rulest over the pride of the sea: when its waves are lifted up, thou assuagest them.
10(89:11) Thou didst crush Rahab as one that is slain: with thy strong arm didst thou scatter thy enemies.
11(89:12) Thine are the heavens, also thine is the earth: as for the world and what filleth it, thou hast founded them.
12(89:13) The north and the south—these hast thou created: Tabor and Chermon shall rejoice in thy name.
13(89:14) Thine is the powerful arm, with might: strong is thy hand, and exalted is thy right hand.
14(89:15) Righteousness and justice are the prop of thy throne: kindness and truth precede thy presence.
15(89:16) Happy is the people that know the cornet's sound: O Lord, in the light of thy countenance will they ever walk firmly.
16(89:17) In thy name will they be glad all the day, and in thy righteousness will they be exalted.
17(89:18) For thou art the glory of their strength; and through thy favor will our horn be exalted.
18(89:19) For of the Lord is our shield; and of the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19(89:20) Then spokest thou in a vision to thy pious servant, and saidst, “I have bestowed help to one that is mighty; I have exalted a youth 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 firmly established; also my arm shall strengthen him;
22(89:23) The enemy shall not exact from him like a lender: and the son of injustice shall not afflict him:
23(89:24) And I will beat down before his face his assailants, and those that hate him will I plague.
24(89:25) But my faithfulness and my kindness shall be with him: and through my name shall his horn be exalted.
25(89:26) And I will place on the sea his hand, and on the rivers his right hand.
26(89:27) He will call unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27(89:28) Also I will appoint my first-born, the highest among the kings of the earth.
28(89:29) For evermore will I keep for him my kindness, and my covenant shall stand faithfully with him.
29(89:30) And I appoint for ever his seed, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30(89:31) If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my ordinances;
31(89:32) If they profane my statutes, and keep not my commandments:
32(89:33) Then will I visit with the rod their transgressions, and with plagues their iniquity.
33(89:34) Nevertheless my kindness will I not make utterly void from him, and I will not act falsely against my faithfulness.
34(89:35) I will not profane my covenant, and what is gone out of my lips will I not alter.
35(89:36) One thing have I sworn by my holiness, that I will not lie unto David.
