The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed.
Why are the nations restless And the peoples plotting in vain?
-
The kings of the earth take their stand And the rulers conspire together Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying,
-
He gives great salvation to His king, And shows faithfulness to His anointed, To David and his descendants forever.
-
Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven With the saving strength of His right hand.
-
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows.
-
The Lord is their strength, And He is a refuge of salvation to His anointed.
-
You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of joy above Your companions.
-
See our shield, God, And look at the face of Your anointed.
-
I have found My servant David; With My holy oil I have anointed him,
-
But You have rejected and refused, You have been full of wrath against Your anointed.
-
With which Your enemies have taunted, Lord, With which they have taunted the footsteps of Your anointed.
-
But You have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil.
-
“Do not touch My anointed ones, And do not harm My prophets.”
-
For the sake of Your servant David, Do not turn away the face of Your anointed.
-
I will make the horn of David spring forth there; I have prepared a lamp for My anointed.
