3
I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,
4
Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah.
5
And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O L
ORD
: thy faithfulness also in the congregation
of the saints.
6
For who in the heaven can be compared unto the L
ORD
?
who
among the sons of the mighty
can be likened unto the L
ORD
?
7
God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all
them that are
about him.
8
O L
ORD
God of hosts, who
is
a strong L
ORD
like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round
about thee?
9
Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.
10
Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies
with thy strong arm.
11
The heavens
are
thine, the earth also
is
thine:
as for
the world and the fulness thereof,
thou hast founded them.
12
The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy
name.
13
Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand,
and
high is thy right hand.
14
Justice and judgment
are
the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy
face.
15
Blessed
is
the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O L
ORD
, in the light of
thy countenance.
16
In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17
For thou
art
the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18
For the L
ORD
is
our defence; and the Holy One of Israel
is
our king.
19
Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon
one that is
mighty; I have exalted
one
chosen out of the people.
20
I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
21
With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.
22
The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23
And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.
24
But my faithfulness and my mercy
shall be
with him: and in my name shall his horn be
exalted.
25
I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26
He shall cry unto me, Thou
art
my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27
Also I will make him
my
firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
28
My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29
His seed also will I make
to endure
for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
