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.
36(89:37) His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne shall be like the sun before me.
37(89:38) Like the moon shall it be firmly established for ever, and as this faithful witness in the sky.” Selah.
38(89:39) And yet thou hast east off and despised, thou hast become wroth with thy anointed.
39(89:40) Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned, down to the ground, his crown.
40(89:41) Thou hast broken down all his fences: thou hast brought his strong-holds to terror.
41(89:42) All that pass by the way plunder him: he is become a reproach to his neighbors.
42(89:43) Thou hast raised up the right hand of his assailants: thou hast caused all his enemies to rejoice.
43(89:44) Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not let him stand erect in the battle.
44(89:45) Thou hast made his brilliancy cease; and his throne hast thou thrown down to the ground.
45(89:46) Thou hast shortened the days of his youth: thou hast enshrouded him with shame. Selah.
46(89:47) How long, Lord, wilt thou hide thyself, continually? how long shall thy fury burn like fire?
47(89:48) Remember what I am, what my duration is here, for what nothingness thou hast created all sons of men!
48(89:49) What man is there that can live, and shall not see death? that can deliver his soul from the power of the nether word? Selah.
