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.
25I will place his hand over the sea and his right hand over the rivers.
26He will call out to me, 'You are my Father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.'
27I also will place him as my firstborn son, the most exalted of the kings of the earth.
28I will extend my covenant faithfulness to him forever; and my covenant with him will be secure.
29I will make his descendants endure forever and his throne as enduring as the skies above.
30If his children forsake my law and do not walk in my regulations,
31if they break my rules and do not keep my commands,
32then will I punish their rebellion with a rod and their iniquity with blows.
33But I will not remove my steadfast love from him or be unfaithful to my promise.
34I will not break my covenant or change the words of my lips.
35Once and for all I have sworn by my holiness— I will not lie to David:
36his descendants will continue forever and his throne as long as the sun before me.
37It will be established forever like the moon, the faithful witness in the sky.” Selah
