Psalms 89:9-31

⁹Thou rulest the pride of the sea: when its waves arise, thou stillest them.

¹⁰Thou hast crushed Rahab as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength.

¹¹Thine are the heavens, the earth also is thine; the world and its fulness, thou hast founded them.

¹²The north and the south, thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon triumph in thy name.

¹³Thine is the arm of might: strong is thy hand, high is thy right hand.

¹⁴Righteousness and judgment are the foundation of thy throne; loving-kindness and truth go before thy face.

¹⁵Blessed is the people that know the shout of joy: they walk, O Jehovah, in the light of thy countenance.

¹⁶In thy name are they joyful all the day, and in thy righteousness are they exalted.

¹⁷For thou art the glory of their strength; and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.

¹⁸For Jehovah is our shield, and the Holy One of Israel, our king.

¹⁹Then thou spakest in vision of thy Holy One, and saidst, I have laid help upon a mighty one; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

²⁰I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:

²¹With whom my hand shall be established; and mine arm shall strengthen him.

²²No enemy shall exact upon him, nor the son of wickedness afflict him;

²³But I will beat down his adversaries before his face, and will smite them that hate him.

²⁴And my faithfulness and my loving-kindness shall be with him, and by my name shall his horn be exalted.

²⁵And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.

²⁶He shall call unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation;

²⁷And as to me, I will make him firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.

²⁸My loving-kindness will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him;

²⁹And I will establish his seed for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.

³⁰If his sons forsake my law, and walk not in mine ordinances;

³¹If they profane my statutes, and keep not my commandments:
