16. In thy name do they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness are they exalted.
17. For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18. For our shield belongeth unto the Lord; and our king to the Holy One of Israel.
19. Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints, 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 adversaries before him, and smite 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 on the sea, and his right hand on the rivers.
26. He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
