Psalms 89:8-26

⁸(89:9) O Lord God of hosts, who is powerful, like thee, Eternal! and thy faithfulness is round about thee.

⁹(89:10) Thou rulest over the pride of the sea: when its waves are lifted up, thou assuagest them.

¹⁰(89:11) Thou didst crush Rahab as one that is slain: with thy strong arm didst thou scatter thy enemies.

¹¹(89:12) Thine are the heavens, also thine is the earth: as for the world and what filleth it, thou hast founded them.

¹²(89:13) The north and the south—these hast thou created: Tabor and Chermon shall rejoice in thy name.

¹³(89:14) Thine is the powerful arm, with might: strong is thy hand, and exalted is thy right hand.

¹⁴(89:15) Righteousness and justice are the prop of thy throne: kindness and truth precede thy presence.

¹⁵(89:16) Happy is the people that know the cornet's sound: O Lord, in the light of thy countenance will they ever walk firmly.

¹⁶(89:17) In thy name will they be glad all the day, and in thy righteousness will they be exalted.

¹⁷(89:18) For thou art the glory of their strength; and through thy favor will our horn be exalted.

¹⁸(89:19) For of the Lord is our shield; and of the Holy One of Israel is our king.

¹⁹(89:20) Then spokest thou in a vision to thy pious servant, and saidst, “I have bestowed help to one that is mighty; I have exalted a youth out of the people;

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.
