God’s Covenant with David

89A Maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of your steadfast love, O LORD, forever; with my mouth I will proclaim your faithfulness to all generations.H4905H387H250H7891H2617H3068H5769H6310H3045H530H1755H1755 2I declare that your steadfast love is established forever; your faithfulness is as firm as the heavens.H559H2617H1129H5769H530H3559H8064 3You said, "I have made a covenant with my chosen one, I have sworn to my servant David:H3772H1285H972H7650H1732H5650 4'I will establish your descendants forever, and build your throne for all generations.'" SelahH2233H3559H5704H5769H1129H3678H1755H1755H5542 5Let the heavens praise your wonders, O LORD, your faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones.H8064H3034H6382H3068H530H6951H6918 6For who in the skies can be compared to the LORD? Who among the heavenly beings is like the LORD,H7834H6186H3068H1121H410H1819H3068 7a God feared in the council of the holy ones, great and awesome above all that are around him?H410H7227H6206H5475H6918H3372H5439 8O LORD God of hosts, who is as mighty as you, O LORD? Your faithfulness surrounds you.H3068H430H6635H2626H3050H530H5439 9You rule the raging of the sea; when its waves rise, you still them.H4910H1348H3220H1530H7721H7623 10You crushed Rahab like a carcass; you scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.H1792H7294H1792H2491H6340H341H5797H2220 11The heavens are yours, the earth also is yours; the world and all that is in it—you have founded them.H8064H776H8398H4393H3245 12The north and the south—you created them; Tabor and Hermon joyously praise your name.H6828H3225H1254H8396H2768H7442H8034 13You have a mighty arm; strong is your hand, high your right hand.H1369H2220H5810H3027H7311H3225 14Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.H6664H4941H4349H3678H2617H571H6923H6440 15Happy are the people who know the festal shout, who walk, O LORD, in the light of your countenance;H835H5971H3045H8643H1980H3068H216H6440 16they exult in your name all day long, and extol your righteousness.H8034H1523H3117H6666H7311 17For you are the glory of their strength; by your favor our horn is exalted.H8597H5797H7522H7161H7311H7311 18For our shield belongs to the LORD, our king to the Holy One of Israel.H3068H4043H6918H3478H4428 19Then you spoke in a vision to your faithful one, and said: "I have set the crown on one who is mighty, I have exalted one chosen from the people.H1696H2377H2623H559H7737H5828H1368H7311H977H5971 20I have found my servant David; with my holy oil I have anointed him;H4672H1732H5650H6944H8081H4886 21my hand shall always remain with him; my arm also shall strengthen him.H3027H3559H2220H553 22The enemy shall not outwit him, the wicked shall not humble him.H341H5378H1121H5766H6031 23I will crush his foes before him and strike down those who hate him.H3807H6862H6440H5062H8130 24My faithfulness and steadfast love shall be with him; and in my name his horn shall be exalted.H530H2617H8034H7161H7311 25I will set his hand on the sea and his right hand on the rivers.H7760H3027H3220H3225H5104 26He shall cry to me, 'You are my Father, my God, and the Rock of my salvation!'H7121H1H410H6697H3444 27I will make him the firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.H5414H1060H5945H4428H776 28Forever I will keep my steadfast love for him, and my covenant with him will stand firm.H2617H8104H5769H1285H539 29I will establish his line forever, and his throne as long as the heavens endure.H2233H7760H5703H3678H3117H8064 30If his children forsake my law and do not walk according to my ordinances,H1121H5800H8451H3212H4941 31if they violate my statutes and do not keep my commandments,H2490H2708H8104H4687 32then I will punish their transgression with the rod and their iniquity with scourges;H6485H6588H7626H5771H5061 33but I will not remove from him my steadfast love, or be false to my faithfulness.H2617H6331H530H8266 34I will not violate my covenant, or alter the word that went forth from my lips.H1285H2490H8138H4161H8193 35Once and for all I have sworn by my holiness; I will not lie to David.H259H7650H6944H3576H1732 36His line shall continue forever, and his throne endure before me like the sun.H2233H5769H3678H8121 37It shall be established forever like the moon, an enduring witness in the skies." SelahH3559H5769H3394H539H5707H7834H5542 38But now you have spurned and rejected him; you are full of wrath against your anointed.H2186H3988H5674H4899 39You have renounced the covenant with your servant; you have defiled his crown in the dust.H5010H1285H5650H2490H5145H776 40You have broken through all his walls; you have laid his strongholds in ruins.H6555H1448H7760H4013H4288 41All who pass by plunder him; he has become the scorn of his neighbors.H5674H1870H8155H2781H7934 42You have exalted the right hand of his foes; you have made all his enemies rejoice.H7311H3225H6862H341H8055 43Moreover, you have turned back the edge of his sword, and you have not supported him in battle.H7725H6697H2719H6965H4421 44You have removed the scepter from his hand, and hurled his throne to the ground.H2892H7673H4048H3678H4048H776 45You have cut short the days of his youth; you have covered him with shame. SelahH3117H5934H7114H5844H955H5542 46How long, O LORD? Will you hide yourself forever? How long will your wrath burn like fire?H3068H5641H5331H2534H1197H784 47Remember how short my time is— for what vanity you have created all mortals!H2142H2465H1254H1121H120H7723 48Who can live and never see death? Who can escape the power of Sheol? SelahH1397H2421H7200H4194H4422H5315H3027H7585H5542 49Lord, where is your steadfast love of old, which by your faithfulness you swore to David?H136H7223H2617H7650H1732H530 50Remember, O Lord, how your servant is taunted; how I bear in my bosom the insults of the peoples,H2142H136H2781H5650H5375H2436H7227H5971 51with which your enemies taunt, O LORD, with which they taunted the footsteps of your anointed.H341H2778H3068H2778H6119H4899 52Blessed be the LORD forever. Amen and Amen.H1288H3068H5769H543H543
