Psalms 89:19-37

191Once You spoke in vision to Your godly 2ones, And said, “I have 3given help to one who is 4mighty; I have exalted one 5chosen from the people.20I have 6found My servant David; With My holy 7oil I have anointed him,21With whom 8My hand will be established; My arm also will 9strengthen him.22The enemy will not 10deceive him, Nor will the 1112son of wickedness afflict him.23But I will 13crush his adversaries before him, And strike those who hate him.24My 14faithfulness and My favor will be with him, And in My name his 15horn will be exalted.25I will also place his hand 16on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers.26He will call to Me, ‘You are 17my Father, My God, and the 18rock of my salvation.’27I will also make him My 19firstborn, The 20highest of the kings of the earth.28I will maintain My 21favor for him forever, And My 22covenant shall be confirmed to him.29So I will establish his 2324descendants forever, And his 25throne 26as the days of heaven.

30“If his sons 27abandon My Law And do not walk in My judgments,31If they 28violate My statutes And do not keep My commandments,32Then I will punish their wrongdoing with the 29rod, And their guilt with 30afflictions.33But I will not 31withhold 32My favor from him, Nor deal falsely in My faithfulness.34I will not 33violate My 34covenant, Nor will I 35alter 36the utterance of My lips.3537Once I have 38sworn by My holiness; I will not lie to David.36His 3940descendants shall endure forever, And his 41throne 42as the sun before Me.37It shall be established forever 43like the moon, And a 44witness in the sky is faithful.” Selah
