Psalm 89:19-29
New King James Version
19 Then You spoke in a vision to Your [a]holy one,
And said: “I have given help to one who is mighty;
I have exalted one (A)chosen from the people.
20 (B)I have found My servant David;
With My holy oil I have anointed him,
21 (C)With whom My hand shall be established;
Also My arm shall strengthen him.
22 The enemy shall not [b]outwit him,
Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23 I will beat down his foes before his face,
And plague those who hate him.
24 “But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him,
And in My name his horn shall be exalted.
25 Also I will (D)set his hand over the sea,
And his right hand over the rivers.
26 He shall cry to Me, ‘You are (E)my Father,
My God, and (F)the rock of my salvation.’
27 Also I will make him (G)My firstborn,
(H)The highest of the kings of the earth.
28 (I)My mercy I will keep for him forever,
And My covenant shall stand firm with him.
29 His seed also I will make to endure forever,
(J)And his throne (K)as the days of heaven.

“I have bestowed strength on a warrior;

his throne as long as the heavens endure.(S)
