89:20 I have found my servant David; with my holy oil I have
anointed him;
89:21 my hand shall always remain with him; my arm also shall
strengthen him.
89:22 The enemy shall not outwit him, the wicked shall not humble
him.
89:23 I will crush his foes before him and strike down those who
hate him.
89:24 My faithfulness and steadfast love shall be with him; and in
my name his horn shall be exalted.
89:25 I will set his hand on the sea and his right hand on the
rivers.
89:26 He shall cry to me, 'You are my Father, my God, and the Rock
of my salvation!'
89:27 I will make him the firstborn, the highest of the kings of the
earth.
89:28 Forever I will keep my steadfast love for him, and my covenant
with him will stand firm.
89:29 I will establish his line forever, and his throne as long as
the heavens endure.
89:30 If his children forsake my law and do not walk according to my
ordinances,
89:31 if they violate my statutes and do not keep my commandments,
89:32 then I will punish their transgression with the rod and their
iniquity with scourges;
89:33 but I will not remove from him my steadfast love, or be false
to my faithfulness.
89:34 I will not violate my covenant, or alter the word that went
forth from my lips.
89:35 Once and for all I have sworn by my holiness; I will not lie
to David.
89:36 His line shall continue forever, and his throne endure before
me like the sun.
89:37 It shall be established forever like the moon, an enduring
witness in the skies." Selah
