Psalms 89:20-37

20Then You spoke in vision to Your godly ones, and said: “I have bestowed help on a warrior. I have exalted one chosen from among the people.

21I have found David My servant. With My holy oil I have anointed him.

22With him My hand will be established. Surely My arm will strengthen him.

23No enemy will exact tribute from him, no son of wickedness will oppress him.

24I will crush his adversaries before him, and strike down those who hate him.

25My faithfulness and My lovingkindness will be with him, and by My Name his horn will be exalted.

26I will also set his hand over the sea, his right hand over the rivers.

27He will call to Me: ‘You are my Father, my God and the rock of my salvation.’

28I also will set him as firstborn— the highest of the kings of earth.

29I will maintain My love for him forever, and My covenant with him will be firm.

30His seed I will establish forever, and his throne as the days of heaven.

31If his sons forsake My Torah, and do not walk in My judgments,

32if they violate My decrees, and do not keep My mitzvot,

33then I will punish their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with flogging.

34But I will not withdraw My lovingkindness from him, nor will I betray My faithfulness.

35I will not violate My covenant, nor alter what My lips have uttered.

36Once for all I have sworn by My holiness —surely I will not lie to David—

37his descendants will endure forever, and his throne as the sun before Me,
