Psalms 89:4-9 in English

⁴ Thy seed will I establish for ever, And build up thy throne to all generations. Selah

⁵ And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O Jehovah; Thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.

⁶ For who in the skies can be compared unto Jehovah? Who among the sons of the mighty is like unto Jehovah,

⁷ A God very terrible in the council of the holy ones, And to be feared above all them that are round about him?

⁸ O Jehovah God of hosts, Who is a mighty one, like unto thee, O Jehovah? And thy faithfulness is round about thee.

⁹ Thou rulest the pride of the sea: When the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.

⁴ For a thousand years in thy sight are as the yesterday which is past, and as a watch in the night.

⁵ Years shall be vanity to them: let the morning pass away as grass.

⁶ In the morning let it flower, and pass away: in the evening let it droop, let it be withered and dried up.

⁷ For we have perished in thine anger, and in thy wrath we have been troubled.

⁸ Thou hast set our transgressions before thee: our age is in the light of thy countenance.

⁹ For all our days are gone, and we have passed away in thy wrath: our years have spun out their tale as a spider.
