Psalms 89:8-21

⁸O Lord God of armies, who is strong like you, O Jah? and your unchanging faith is round about you.

⁹You have rule over the sea in storm; when its waves are troubled, you make them calm.

¹⁰Rahab was crushed by you like one wounded to death; with your strong arm you put to flight all your haters.

¹¹Yours are the heavens, and the earth is yours; you have made the world, and everything which is in it.

¹²You have made the north and the south; Tabor and Hermon are sounding with joy at your name.

¹³Yours is an arm of power; strong is your hand and high your right hand.

¹⁴The seat of your kingdom is resting on righteousness and right judging: mercy and good faith come before your face.

¹⁵Happy are the people who have knowledge of the holy cry: the light of your face, O Lord, will be shining on their way.

¹⁶In your name will they have joy all the day: in your righteousness will they be lifted up.

¹⁷For you are the glory of their strength; in your pleasure will our horn be lifted up.

¹⁸For our breastplate is the Lord; and our king is the Holy One of Israel's.

¹⁹Then your voice came to your holy one in a vision, saying, I have put the crown on a strong one, lifting up one taken from among the people.

²⁰I have made discovery of David my servant; I have put my holy oil on his head.

²¹My hand will be his support; my arm will give him strength.
