New Testament

Psalm 89:13-31 English Standard Version (ESV)

13. You have a mighty arm;strong is your hand, high your right hand.

14. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.

15. Blessed are the people who know the festal shout,who walk, O Lord, in the light of your face,

16. who exult in your name all the dayand in your righteousness are exalted.

17. For you are the glory of their strength;by your favor our horn is exalted.

18. For our shield belongs to the Lord,our king to the Holy One of Israel.

19. Of old you spoke in a vision to your godly one, and said:“I have granted help to one who is mighty;I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20. I have found David, my servant;with my holy oil I have anointed him,

21. so that my hand shall be established with him;my arm also shall strengthen him.

22. The enemy shall not outwit him; the wicked shall not humble him.

23. I will crush his foes before himand strike down those who hate him.

24. My faithfulness and my steadfast love shall be with him,and in my name shall his horn be exalted.

25. I will set his hand on the seaand his right hand on the rivers.

26. He shall cry to me, ‘You are my Father,my God, and the Rock of my salvation.’

27. And I will make him the firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.

28. My steadfast love I will keep for him forever,and my covenant will stand firm for him.

29. I will establish his offspring foreverand his throne as the days of the heavens.

30. If his children forsake my lawand do not walk according to my rules,

31. if they violate my statutesand do not keep my commandments,
