Psalm 89:19-37
Good News Translation
God's Promise to David
19 In a vision long ago you said to your faithful servants,
“I have given help to a famous soldier;
I have given the throne to one I chose from the people.
20 (A)I have made my servant David king
by anointing him with holy oil.
21 My strength will always be with him,
my power will make him strong.
22 His enemies will never succeed against him;
the wicked will not defeat him.
23 I will crush his foes
and kill everyone who hates him.
24 I will love him and be loyal to him;
I will make him always victorious.
25 I will extend his kingdom
from the Mediterranean to the Euphrates River.
26 He will say to me,
‘You are my father and my God;
you are my protector and savior.’
27 (B)I will make him my first-born son,
the greatest of all kings.
28 I will always keep my promise to him,
and my covenant with him will last forever.
29 His dynasty will be as permanent as the sky;
a descendant of his will always be king.
30 “But if his descendants disobey my law
and do not live according to my commands,
31 if they disregard my instructions
and do not keep my commandments,
32 then I will punish them for their sins;
I will make them suffer for their wrongs.
33 But I will not stop loving David
or fail to keep my promise to him.
34 I will not break my covenant with him
or take back even one promise I made him.
35 “Once and for all I have promised by my holy name:
I will never lie to David.
36 He will always have descendants,
and I will watch over his kingdom as long as the sun shines.
37 It will be as permanent as the moon,
that faithful witness in the sky.”
Psalm 89:19-37
New International Version
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)
