Psalms 89:6-19

6For who in the skies can be compared unto the LORDH3068? who among the sons of the mighty is like unto the LORDH3068,

7A GodH410 very terrible in the council of the holy onesH1121, and to be feared above all them that are round about him?

8O LORD GodH410 of hosts, who is a mightyH410 one, like unto thee, O JAH? and thy faithfulness is roundH5439 aboutH5439 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 handH3225, and high is thy rightH3225 handH3225.

14Righteousness and judgmentH3027 are the foundation of thy throne: mercy and truth go beforeH5973 thy face.

15Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they walk, O LORDH2617, in the light of thy countenanceH6440.

16In thy name do they rejoice allH3045 the day: and in thy righteousness are they exalted.

17For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exaltedH7311.

18For our shield belongeth unto the LORD; and our king to the Holy One of Israel.

19Then thou spakest in vision to thy saintsH6918, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
