Psalms 89:7-18

⁷a very awesome God in the council of the holy ones, to be feared above all those who are around him?

⁸LORD, God of Hosts, who is a mighty one, like you? The LORD, your faithfulness is around you.

⁹You rule the pride of the sea. When its waves rise up, you calm them.

¹⁰You have broken Rahab in pieces, like one of the slain. You have scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.

¹¹The heavens are yours. The earth also is yours, the world and its fullness. You have founded them.

¹²You have created the north and the south. Tabor and Hermon rejoice in your name.

¹³You have a mighty arm. Your hand is strong, and your right hand is exalted.

¹⁴Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne. Loving kindness and truth go before your face.

¹⁵Blessed are the people who learn to acclaim you. They walk in the light of your presence, LORD.

¹⁶In your name they rejoice all day. In your righteousness, they are exalted.

¹⁷For you are the glory of their strength. In your favour, our horn will be exalted.

¹⁸For our shield belongs to the LORD, our king to the Holy One of Israel.
