Psalms 89:16-27
-
16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
-
17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
-
18 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
-
19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one 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 upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
-
23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.
-
24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
-
25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
-
26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
-
27 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
