ERV(i)
3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant;
4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah
5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD; thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.
6 For who in the skies can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty is like unto the LORD,
7 A God very terrible in the council of the holy ones, and to be feared above all them that are round about him?
8 O LORD God of hosts, who is a mighty one, like unto thee, O JAH? and thy faithfulness is round about thee.
9 Thou rulest the pride of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.
10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength.
11 The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
12 The north and the south, thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon rejoice in thy name.
13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.
14 Righteousness and judgment are the foundation of thy throne: mercy and truth go before thy face.
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
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.
