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

  1. Psalm 3:2 The meaning of the Hebrew word Selah, used frequently in the Psalms, is uncertain. It may be a musical or liturgical direction

But God said to me, (A)‘You may not build a house for my name, for you are a man of war and have shed blood.’ Yet the Lord God of Israel (B)chose me from all my father's house to be king over Israel (C)forever. (D)For he chose Judah as leader, and in the house of Judah my father's (E)house, and among my father's sons he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel. And of (F)all my sons (for the Lord has given me many sons) he (G)has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel. He said to me, ‘It is (H)Solomon your son who shall build my house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

Do not let the king take it to heart. 20 For your servant knows that I have sinned. Therefore, behold, I have come this day, the first (C)of all the house of Joseph to come down to meet my lord the king.”
