Psalms 89:6-19

6For who in the skies can be compared unto Jehovah?Who among the sons of the mighty is like unto Jehovah,7A God very terrible in the council of the holy ones,And to be feared above all them that are round about him?8O Jehovah God of hosts,Who is a mighty one, like unto thee, O Jehovah?And thy faithfulness is round about thee.9Thou rulest the pride of the sea:When the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.10Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain;Thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength.11The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine:The world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.12The north and the south, thou hast created them:Tabor and Hermon rejoice in thy name.13Thou hast a mighty arm;Strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.14Righteousness and justice are the foundation of thy throne:Lovingkindness and truth go before thy face.15Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound:They walk, O Jehovah, in the light of thy countenance.16In thy name do they rejoice all the day;And in thy righteousness are they exalted.17For thou art the glory of their strength;And in thy favor our horn shall be exalted.18For our shield belongeth unto Jehovah;And our king to the Holy One of Israel.19Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints,And saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty;I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
