Psalm 89:19-37

19 (A)Of old you spoke in a vision to your godly one,[a] and said:
“I have (B)granted help to one who is (C)mighty;
I have exalted one (D)chosen from the people.
20 (E)I have found David, my servant;
with my holy oil I have (F)anointed him,
21 so that my (G)hand shall be established with him;
my arm also shall strengthen him.
22 The enemy shall not outwit him;
(H)the wicked shall not humble him.
23 I will (I)crush his foes before him
and strike down those who hate him.
24 My (J)faithfulness and my (K)steadfast love shall be with him,
and in my name shall his (L)horn be exalted.
25 I will set his hand on (M)the sea
and his right hand on (N)the rivers.
26 He shall cry to me, ‘You are my (O)Father,
my God, and (P)the Rock of my salvation.’
27 And I will make him the (Q)firstborn,
(R)the highest of the kings of the earth.
28 My steadfast love I will keep for him forever,
and my (S)covenant will stand firm[b] for him.
29 I will establish his (T)offspring forever
and his (U)throne as (V)the days of the heavens.
30 (W)If his children forsake my law
and do not walk according to my rules,[c]
31 if they violate my statutes
and do not keep my commandments,
32 then I will punish their transgression with (X)the rod
and their iniquity with stripes,
33 but I will not remove from him my steadfast love
or be false to my faithfulness.
34 I will not violate my (Y)covenant
or alter the word that went forth from my lips.
35 Once for all I have sworn (Z)by my holiness;
I will not (AA)lie to David.
36 His (AB)offspring shall endure forever,
(AC)his (AD)throne as long as (AE)the sun before me.
37 Like (AF)the moon it shall be established forever,
(AG)a faithful witness in the skies.” Selah

19 Once you spoke in a vision,
to your faithful people you said:
“I have bestowed strength on a warrior;
I have raised up a young man from among the people.
20 I have found David(A) my servant;(B)
with my sacred oil(C) I have anointed(D) him.
21 My hand will sustain him;
surely my arm will strengthen him.(E)
22 The enemy will not get the better of him;(F)
the wicked will not oppress(G) him.
23 I will crush his foes before him(H)
and strike down his adversaries.(I)
24 My faithful love will be with him,(J)
and through my name his horn[a] will be exalted.
25 I will set his hand over the sea,
his right hand over the rivers.(K)
26 He will call out to me, ‘You are my Father,(L)
my God, the Rock(M) my Savior.’(N)
27 And I will appoint him to be my firstborn,(O)
the most exalted(P) of the kings(Q) of the earth.
28 I will maintain my love to him forever,
and my covenant with him will never fail.(R)
29 I will establish his line forever,
his throne as long as the heavens endure.(S)
30 “If his sons forsake my law
and do not follow my statutes,
31 if they violate my decrees
and fail to keep my commands,
32 I will punish their sin with the rod,
their iniquity with flogging;(T)
33 but I will not take my love from him,(U)
nor will I ever betray my faithfulness.
34 I will not violate my covenant
or alter what my lips have uttered.(V)
35 Once for all, I have sworn by my holiness—
and I will not lie to David—
36 that his line will continue forever
and his throne endure before me like the sun;(W)
37 it will be established forever like the moon,
the faithful witness in the sky.”(X)
