14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation
of Your throne;(A)
faithful love and truth go before You.(B)
15 Happy are the people who know the joyful shout;(C)
Yahweh, they walk in the light of Your presence.(D)
16 They rejoice in Your name all day long,
and they are exalted by Your righteousness.(E)
17 For You are their magnificent strength;(F)
by Your favor our horn is exalted.(G)
18 Surely our shield[a] belongs to the Lord,
our king to the Holy One of Israel.(H)

19 You once spoke in a vision to Your loyal ones
and said: “I have granted help to a warrior;
I have exalted one chosen[b] from the people.(I)
20 I have found David My servant;
I have anointed him with My sacred oil.(J)
