Psalms 89:19-37

19You once spoke in a vision to your faithful ones and said, “I have granted help to a warrior; I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20I have found David my servant; I have anointed him with my sacred oil.

21My hand will always be with him, and my arm will strengthen him.

22The enemy will not oppress him; the wicked will not afflict him.

23I will crush his foes before him and strike those who hate him.

24My faithfulness and love will be with him, and through my name his horn will be exalted.

25I will extend his power to the sea and his right hand to the rivers.

26He will call to me, ‘You are my Father, my God, the rock of my salvation.’

27I will also make him my firstborn, greatest of the kings of the earth.

28I will always preserve my faithful love for him, and my covenant with him will endure.

29I will establish his line forever, his throne as long as heaven lasts.

30If his sons abandon my instruction and do not live by my ordinances,

31if they dishonor my statutes and do not keep my commands,

32then I will call their rebellion to account with the rod, their iniquity with blows.

33But I will not withdraw my faithful love from him or betray my faithfulness.

34I will not violate my covenant or change what my lips have said.

35Once and for all I have sworn an oath by my holiness; I will not lie to David.

36His offspring will continue forever, his throne like the sun before me,

37like the moon, established forever, a faithful witness in the sky.”Selah
