Psalms 89:20-52

Webster(i) 20 (89:19)Then thou didst speak in vision to thy holy one, and say, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. 21 (89:20)I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him: 22 (89:21)With whom my hand shall be established: my arm also shall strengthen him. 23 (89:22)The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him. 24 (89:23)And I will beat down his foes before his face, and afflict them that hate him. 25 (89:24)But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted. 26 (89:25)I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers. 27 (89:26)He shall cry to me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation. 28 (89:27)Also I will make him my first-born, higher than the kings of the earth. 29 (89:28)My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him. 30 (89:29)His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven. 31 (89:30)If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments; 32 (89:31)If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments; 33 (89:32)Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes. 34 (89:33)Nevertheless my loving-kindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. 35 (89:34)My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that hath gone out of my lips. 36 (89:35)Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie to David. 37 (89:36)His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me. 38 (89:37)It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah. 39 (89:38)But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thy anointed. 40 (89:39)Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground. 41 (89:40)Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin. 42 (89:41)All that pass by the way plunder him: he is a reproach to his neighbors. 43 (89:42)Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice. 44 (89:43)Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle. 45 (89:44)Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground. 46 (89:45)The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. Selah. 47 (89:46)How long, LORD, wilt thou hide thyself? for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire? 48 (89:47)Remember how short my time is: why hast thou made all men in vain? 49 (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. 50 (89:49)Lord, where are thy former loving-kindnesses, which thou didst swear to David in thy truth? 51 (89:50)Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people; 52 (89:51)With which thy enemies have reproached, O LORD; with which they have reproached the footsteps of thy anointed
