Psalm 89:20-29

Revised Standard Version

²⁰ I have found David, my servant;
    with my holy oil I have anointed him;
²¹ so that my hand shall ever abide with him,
    my arm also shall strengthen him.
²² The enemy shall not outwit him,
    the wicked shall not humble him.
²³ I will crush his foes before him
    and strike down those who hate him.
²⁴ My faithfulness and my steadfast love shall be with him,
    and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
²⁵ I will set his hand on the sea
    and his right hand on the rivers.
²⁶ He shall cry to me, ‘Thou art my Father,
    my God, and the Rock of my salvation.’
²⁷ And I will make him the first-born,
    the highest of the kings of the earth.
²⁸ My steadfast love I will keep for him for ever,
    and my covenant will stand firm for him.
²⁹ I will establish his line for ever
    and his throne as the days of the heavens.
