19 [a]Once You spoke in vision to Your godly [b]ones,
And said, “I have [c]given help to one who is (A)mighty;
I have exalted one (B)chosen from the people.
20 I have (C)found My servant David;
With My holy (D)oil I have anointed him,
21 With whom (E)My hand will be established;
My arm also will (F)strengthen him.
22 The enemy will not [d]deceive him,
Nor will the [e](G)son of wickedness afflict him.
23 But I will (H)crush his adversaries before him,
And strike those who hate him.
24 My (I)faithfulness and My favor will be with him,
And in My name his (J)horn will be exalted.
25 I will also place his hand (K)on the sea,
And his right hand on the rivers.
26 He will call to Me, ‘You are (L)my Father,
My God, and the (M)rock of my salvation.’
27 I will also make him My (N)firstborn,
The (O)highest of the kings of the earth.
28 I will maintain My (P)favor for him forever,
And My (Q)covenant shall be confirmed to him.
29 So I will establish his [f](R)descendants forever,
And his (S)throne (T)as the days of heaven.
