The Lord’s Covenant with David, and Israel’s Afflictions.

In the heavens You will establish Your (E)faithfulness.”

Psalm 89:19-29
New American Standard Bible 1995

19 [a]Once You spoke in vision to Your godly [b]ones,
And said, “I have [c]given help to one who is (A)mighty;
I have exalted one (B)chosen from the people.
20 “I have (C)found David My servant;
With My holy (D)oil I have anointed him,
21 With whom (E)My hand will be established;
My arm also will (F)strengthen him.
22 “The enemy will not [d]deceive him,
Nor the [e](G)son of wickedness afflict him.
23 “But I shall (H)crush his adversaries before him,
And strike those who hate him.
24 “My (I)faithfulness and My lovingkindness will be with him,
And in My name his (J)horn will be exalted.
25 “I shall also set his hand (K)on the sea
And his right hand on the rivers.
26 “He will cry to Me, ‘You are (L)my Father,
My God, and the (M)rock of my salvation.’
27 “I also shall make him My (N)firstborn,
The (O)highest of the kings of the earth.
28 “My (P)lovingkindness I will keep for him forever,
And My (Q)covenant shall be confirmed to him.
29 “So I will establish his [f](R)descendants forever
And his (S)throne (T)as the days of heaven.
