­PSA 89:1  I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I

 make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

 

­PSA 89:2  For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness

 shalt thou establish in the very heavens.

 

­PSA 89:3  I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my

 servant,

 

­PSA 89:4  Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all

 generations. Selah.

 

­PSA 89:5  And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness

 also in the congregation of the saints.

 

­PSA 89:6  For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the

 sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?

 

­PSA 89:7  God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be

 had in reverence of all them that are about him.

 

­PSA 89:8  O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy

 faithfulness round about thee?

 

­PSA 89:9  Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou

 stillest them.

 

­PSA 89:10  Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast

 scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.

 

­PSA 89:11  The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and

 the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.

 

­PSA 89:12  The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon

 shall rejoice in thy name.

 

­PSA 89:13  Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right

 hand.

 

­PSA 89:14  Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and

 truth shall go before thy face.

 

­PSA 89:15  Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O

 LORD, in the light of thy countenance.

 

­PSA 89:16  In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness

 shall they be exalted.

 

­PSA 89:17  For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn

 shall be exalted.

 

­PSA 89:18  For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.

 

­PSA 89:19  Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid

 help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

 

­PSA 89:20  I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:

 

­PSA 89:21  With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall

 strengthen him.

 

­PSA 89:22  The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness

 afflict him.

 

­PSA 89:23  And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that

 hate him.

 

­PSA 89:24  But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name

 shall his horn be exalted.

 

­PSA 89:25  I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the

 rivers.

 

­PSA 89:26  He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my

 salvation.

 

­PSA 89:27  Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the

 earth.

 

­PSA 89:28  My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall

 stand fast with him.

 

­PSA 89:29  His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the

 days of heaven.

 

­PSA 89:30  If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;

 

­PSA 89:31  If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;

 

­PSA 89:32  Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their

 iniquity with stripes.

 

­PSA 89:33  Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor

 suffer my faithfulness to fail.

 

­PSA 89:34  My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out

 of my lips.

 

­PSA 89:35  Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

 

­PSA 89:36  His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

 

­PSA 89:37  It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful

 witness in heaven. Selah.

 

­PSA 89:38  But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine

 anointed.

 

­PSA 89:39  Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned

 his crown by casting it to the ground.

 

­PSA 89:40  Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong

 holds to ruin.

 

­PSA 89:41  All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his

 neighbours.

 

­PSA 89:42  Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made

 all his enemies to rejoice.

 

­PSA 89:43  Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him

 to stand in the battle.

 

­PSA 89:44  Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the

 ground.

 

­PSA 89:45  The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him

 with shame. Selah.

 

­PSA 89:46  How long, LORD? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath

 burn like fire?

 

­PSA 89:47  Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in

 vain?

 

­PSA 89:48  What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he

 deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

 

­PSA 89:49  Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest unto

 David in thy truth?

 

­PSA 89:50  Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my

 bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;

 

­PSA 89:51  Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have

 reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.

 

­PSA 89:52  Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
