Psalms 89:5-21 New Century Version (NCV)

5. Lord, the heavens praise you for your miraclesand for your loyalty in the meeting of your holy ones.

6. Who in heaven is equal to the Lord?None of the angels is like the Lord.

7. When the holy ones meet, it is God they fear.He is more frightening than all who surround him.

8. Lord God All-Powerful, who is like you?Lord, you are powerful and completely trustworthy.

9. You rule the mighty seaand calm the stormy waves.

10. You crushed the sea monster Rahab;by your power you scattered your enemies.

11. The skies and the earth belong to you.You made the world and everything in it.

12. You created the north and the south.Mount Tabor and Mount Hermon sing for joy at your name.

13. Your arm has great power.Your hand is strong; your right hand is lifted up.

14. Your kingdom is built on what is right and fair.Love and truth are in all you do.

15. Happy are the people who know how to praise you.Lord, let them live in the light of your presence.

16. In your name they rejoiceand continually praise your goodness.

17. You are their glorious strength,and in your kindness you honor our king.

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

19. Once, in a vision, you spoketo those who worship you.You said, “I have given strength to a warrior;I have raised up a young man from my people.

20. I have found my servant David;I appointed him by pouring holy oil on him.

21. I will steady him with my handand strengthen him with my arm.
