19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints , And saidst, I have laid help upon one וְלִקְד֖וֹשׁ ve.lik.Do.osh H6918 that is mighty; I have exalted one H6918 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 from him , Nor the son of wickedness afflict him . 23 And I will beat down his adversaries before him , And smite them that hate him . 24 But my faithfulness and my lovingkindness shall be with him ; And in my name shall his horn be exalted. 25 I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers. 26 He shall cry unto me , Thou art my Father, My God , and the rock of my salvation. 27 I also will make him my first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth. 28 My lovingkindness 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 לְ֭עוֹלָ֗ם le.'o.Lam H5769 , And his throne as the days of heaven. 30 If his children forsake my law, And walk not in mine ordinances; 31 If they break my statutes, And keep not my commandments; 32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with stripes. 33 But my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him , Nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. 34 My covenant will I not break, Nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. 35 Once have I sworn by my holiness: I will not lie unto David: 36 His seed shall endure for ever, And his throne as the sun before me. 37 It shall be יִהְיֶ֑ה yih.Yeh H1961 established for ever H5769 as the moon, And as the faithful witness in the sky.
