New American Standard Bible
Chapter 89
4
I will establish your descendants forever
And build up your throne to all generations.'
Selah
5
The heavens will praise Your wonders,
Lord
;
Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.
6
For who in the skies is comparable to the
Lord
?
Who among the sons of the mighty is like the
Lord
,
7
A God greatly feared in the council of the holy ones,
And awesome above all those who are around Him?
8
Lord
God of armies, who is like You, mighty
Lord
?
Your faithfulness also surrounds You.
9
You rule the surging of the sea;
When its waves rise, You calm them.
10
You Yourself crushed Rahab like one who is slain;
You scattered Your enemies with Your mighty arm.
11
The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours;
The world and all it contains, You have established them.
12
The north and the south, You have created them;
Tabor and Hermon shout for joy at Your name.
13
You have a strong arm;
Your hand is mighty, Your right hand is exalted.
14
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;
Mercy and truth go before You.
15
Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound!
Lord
, they walk in the light of Your face.
16
In Your name they rejoice all the day,
And by Your righteousness they are exalted.
17
For You are the glory of their strength,
And by Your favor our horn is exalted.
18
For our shield belongs to the
Lord
,
And our king to the Holy One of Israel.
19
Once You spoke in vision to Your godly ones,
And said, 'I have given help to one who is mighty;
I have exalted one chosen from the people.
20
I have found My servant David;
With My holy oil I have anointed him,
21
With whom My hand will be established;
My arm also will strengthen him.
22
The enemy will not deceive him,
Nor will the son of wickedness afflict him.
23
But I will crush his adversaries before him,
And strike those who hate him.
24
My faithfulness and My favor
will be
with him,
And in My name his horn will be exalted.
25
I will also place his hand on the sea,
And his right hand on the rivers.
26
He will call to Me, ‘You are my Father,
My God, and the rock of my salvation.’
27
I will also make him
My
firstborn,
The highest of the kings of the earth.
28
I will maintain My favor for him forever,
And My covenant shall be confirmed to him.
29
So I will establish his descendants forever,
And his throne as the days of heaven.
30
'If his sons abandon My Law
And do not walk in My judgments,
31
If they violate My statutes
And do not keep My commandments,
32
Then I will punish their wrongdoing with the rod,
And their guilt with afflictions.
33
But I will not withhold My favor from him,
Nor deal falsely in My faithfulness.
34
I will not violate My covenant,
Nor will I alter the utterance of My lips.
35
Once I have sworn by My holiness;
I will not lie to David.
36
His descendants shall endure forever,
And his throne as the sun before Me.
37
It shall be established forever like the moon,
And a witness in the sky is faithful.'
Selah
38
But You have rejected and refused,
You have been full of wrath against Your anointed.
39
You have repudiated the covenant of Your servant;
You have profaned his crown in the dust.
40
You have broken down all his walls;
You have brought his strongholds to ruin.
41
All who pass along the way plunder him;
He has become a disgrace to his neighbors.
42
You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries;
You have made all his enemies rejoice.
43
You also turn back the edge of his sword,
And have not made him stand in battle.
44
You have put an end to his splendor
And cast his throne to the ground.
45
You have shortened the days of his youth;
You have covered him with shame.
Selah
46
How long,
Lord
?
Will You hide Yourself forever?
Will Your wrath burn like fire?
47
Remember what my lifespan is;
For what futility You have created all the sons of mankind!
48
What man can live and not see death?
Can he save his soul from the power of Sheol?
Selah
49
Where are Your former acts of favor, Lord,
Which
You swore to David in Your faithfulness?
50
Remember, Lord, the taunt against Your servants;
How I carry in my heart
the taunts of
all the many peoples,
King James Version
Chapter 89
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 congregation of the saints.
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
?
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.
8
O
Lord
God of hosts, who is a strong
Lord
like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?
9
Thou rulest the raging 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 thy strong arm.
11
The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
12
The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.
13
Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.
14
Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
15
Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O
Lord
, in the light of thy countenance.
16
In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17
For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18
For the
Lord
is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
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.
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 foes before his face, and plague 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 in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26
He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27
Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
28
My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29
His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30
If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31
If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32
Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33
Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34
to me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
35
worn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
36
His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.
37
It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.
38
But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.
39
Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
40
Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.
41
All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.
42
Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
43
Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.
44
Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
45
The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. Selah.
46
How long,
Lord
? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?
47
Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?
48
What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.
49
Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest unto David in thy truth?
50
Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;

Chapter 89
4
‘I will establish your offspring forever
and build up your throne for all generations.’"
Selah
5
Lord
, the heavens praise your wonders —
your faithfulness also—
in the assembly of the holy ones.
6
For who in the skies can compare with the
Lord
?
Who among the heavenly beings is like the
Lord
?
7
God is greatly feared in the council of the holy ones,
more awe-inspiring than all who surround him.
8
Lord
God of Armies,
who is strong like you,
Lord
?
Your faithfulness surrounds you.
9
You rule the raging sea;
when its waves surge, you still them.
10
You crushed Rahab like one who is slain;
you scattered your enemies with your powerful arm.
11
The heavens are yours; the earth also is yours.
The world and everything in it—you founded them.
12
North and south—you created them.
Tabor and Hermon shout for joy at your name.
13
You have a mighty arm;
your hand is powerful;
your right hand is lifted high.
14
Righteousness and justice are the foundation
of your throne;
faithful love and truth go before you.
15
Happy are the people who know the joyful shout;
Lord
, they walk in the light from your face.
16
They rejoice in your name all day long,
and they are exalted by your righteousness.
17
For you are their magnificent strength;
by your favor our horn is exalted.
18
Surely our shield belongs to the
Lord
,
our king to the Holy One of Israel.
19
You once spoke in a vision to your faithful ones
and said: "I have granted help to a warrior;
I have exalted one chosen from the people.
20
I have found David my servant;
I have anointed him with my sacred oil.
21
My hand will always be with him,
and my arm will strengthen him.
22
The enemy will not oppress him;
the wicked will not afflict him.
23
I will crush his foes before him
and strike those who hate him.
24
My faithfulness and love will be with him,
and through my name
his horn will be exalted.
25
I will extend his power to the sea
and his right hand to the rivers.
26
He will call to me, ‘You are my Father,
my God, the rock of my salvation.’
27
I will also make him my firstborn,
greatest of the kings of the earth.
28
I will always preserve my faithful love for him,
and my covenant with him will endure.
29
I will establish his line forever,
his throne as long as heaven lasts.
30
If his sons abandon my instruction
and do not live by my ordinances,
31
if they dishonor my statutes
and do not keep my commands,
32
then I will call their rebellion
to account with the rod,
their iniquity with blows.
33
But I will not withdraw
my faithful love from him
or betray my faithfulness.
34
I will not violate my covenant
or change what my lips have said.
35
Once and for all
I have sworn an oath by my holiness;
I will not lie to David.
36
His offspring will continue forever,
his throne like the sun before me,
37
like the moon, established forever,
a faithful witness in the sky."
Selah
38
But you have spurned and rejected him;
you have become enraged with your anointed.
39
You have repudiated the covenant with your servant;
you have completely dishonored his crown.
40
You have broken down all his walls;
you have reduced his fortified cities to ruins.
41
All who pass by plunder him;
he has become an object of ridicule
to his neighbors.
42
You have lifted high the right hand of his foes;
you have made all his enemies rejoice.
43
You have also turned back his sharp sword
and have not let him stand in battle.
44
You have made his splendor cease
and have overturned his throne.
45
You have shortened the days of his youth;
you have covered him with shame.
Selah
46
How long,
Lord
? Will you hide forever?
Will your anger keep burning like fire?
47
Remember how short my life is.
Have you created everyone for nothing?
48
What courageous person can live and never see death?
Who can save himself from the power of Sheol?
Selah
49
Lord, where are the former acts of your faithful love
that you swore to David in your faithfulness?
50
Remember, Lord, the ridicule against your servants—
in my heart I carry abuse from all the peoples—
New Living Translation

4
‘I will establish your descendants as kings forever;
they will sit on your throne from now until eternity.’'
Interlude
5
All heaven will praise your great wonders,
Lord
;
myriads of angels will praise you for your faithfulness.
6
For who in all of heaven can compare with the
Lord
?
What mightiest angel is anything like the
Lord
?
7
The highest angelic powers stand in awe of God.
He is far more awesome than all who surround his throne.
8
O
Lord
God of Heaven’s Armies!
Where is there anyone as mighty as you, O
Lord
?
You are entirely faithful.
9
You rule the oceans.
You subdue their storm-tossed waves.
10
You crushed the great sea monster.
You scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.
11
The heavens are yours, and the earth is yours;
everything in the world is yours — you created it all.
12
You created north and south.
Mount Tabor and Mount Hermon praise your name.
13
Powerful is your arm!
Strong is your hand!
Your right hand is lifted high in glorious strength.
14
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne.
Unfailing love and truth walk before you as attendants.
15
Happy are those who hear the joyful call to worship,
for they will walk in the light of your presence,
Lord
.
16
They rejoice all day long in your wonderful reputation.
They exult in your righteousness.
17
You are their glorious strength.
It pleases you to make us strong.
18
Yes, our protection comes from the
Lord
,
and he, the Holy One of Israel, has given us our king.
19
Long ago you spoke in a vision to your faithful people.
You said, 'I have raised up a warrior.
I have selected him from the common people to be king.
20
I have found my servant David.
I have anointed him with my holy oil.
21
I will steady him with my hand;
with my powerful arm I will make him strong.
22
His enemies will not defeat him,
nor will the wicked overpower him.
23
I will beat down his adversaries before him
and destroy those who hate him.
24
My faithfulness and unfailing love will be with him,
and by my authority he will grow in power.
25
I will extend his rule over the sea,
his dominion over the rivers.
26
And he will call out to me, ‘You are my Father,
my God, and the Rock of my salvation.’
27
I will make him my firstborn son,
the mightiest king on earth.
28
I will love him and be kind to him forever;
my covenant with him will never end.
29
I will preserve an heir for him;
his throne will be as endless as the days of heaven.
30
But if his descendants forsake my instructions
and fail to obey my regulations,
31
if they do not obey my decrees
and fail to keep my commands,
32
then I will punish their sin with the rod,
and their disobedience with beating.
33
But I will never stop loving him
nor fail to keep my promise to him.
34
No, I will not break my covenant;
I will not take back a single word I said.
35
I have sworn an oath to David,
and in my holiness I cannot lie:
36
His dynasty will go on forever;
his kingdom will endure as the sun.
37
It will be as eternal as the moon,
my faithful witness in the sky!'
Interlude
38
But now you have rejected him and cast him off.
You are angry with your anointed king.
39
You have renounced your covenant with him;
you have thrown his crown in the dust.
40
You have broken down the walls protecting him
and ruined every fort defending him.
41
Everyone who comes along has robbed him,
and he has become a joke to his neighbors.
42
You have strengthened his enemies
and made them all rejoice.
43
You have made his sword useless
and refused to help him in battle.
44
You have ended his splendor
and overturned his throne.
45
You have made him old before his time
and publicly disgraced him.
Interlude
46
O
Lord
, how long will this go on?
Will you hide yourself forever?
How long will your anger burn like fire?
47
Remember how short my life is,
how empty and futile this human existence!
48
No one can live forever; all will die.
No one can escape the power of the grave.
Interlude
49
Lord, where is your unfailing love?
You promised it to David with a faithful pledge.
50
Consider, Lord, how your servants are disgraced!
I carry in my heart the insults of so many people.

I have found David, my servant;
with my holy oil I have anointed him,
21
so that my hand shall be established with him;
my arm also shall strengthen him.
22
The enemy shall not outwit him;
the wicked shall not humble him.
23
I will crush his foes before him
and strike down those who hate him.
24
My faithfulness and my steadfast love shall be with him,
and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
25
I will set his hand on the sea
and his right hand on the rivers.
26
He shall cry to me, ‘You are my Father,
my God, and the Rock of my salvation.’
27
And I will make him the firstborn,
the highest of the kings of the earth.
28
My steadfast love I will keep for him forever,
and my covenant will stand firm for him.
29
I will establish his offspring forever
and his throne as the days of the heavens.
30
If his children forsake my law
and do not walk according to my rules,
31
if they violate my statutes
and do not keep my commandments,
32
then I will punish their transgression with the rod
and their iniquity with stripes,
33
but I will not remove from him my steadfast love
or be false to my faithfulness.
34
I will not violate my covenant
or alter the word that went forth from my lips.
35
Once for all I have sworn by my holiness;
I will not lie to David.
36
His offspring shall endure forever,
his throne as long as the sun before me.
37
Like the moon it shall be established forever,
a faithful witness in the skies."
Selah
38
But now you have cast off and rejected;
you are full of wrath against your anointed.
39
You have renounced the covenant with your servant;
you have defiled his crown in the dust.
40
You have breached all his walls;
you have laid his strongholds in ruins.
41
All who pass by plunder him;
he has become the scorn of his neighbors.
42
You have exalted the right hand of his foes;
you have made all his enemies rejoice.
43
You have also turned back the edge of his sword,
and you have not made him stand in battle.
44
You have made his splendor to cease
and cast his throne to the ground.
45
You have cut short the days of his youth;
you have covered him with shame.
Selah
46
How long, O
Lord
? Will you hide yourself forever?
How long will your wrath burn like fire?

Remember how short my time is!
For what vanity you have created all the children of man!

What man can live and never see death?
Who can deliver his soul from the power of Sheol?

Lord, where is your steadfast love of old,
which by your faithfulness you swore to David?

The heavens praise your wonders,
Lord
,
your faithfulness too, in the assembly of the holy ones.
6
For who in the skies above can compare with the
Lord
?
Who is like the
Lord
among the heavenly beings?
7
In the council of the holy ones God is greatly feared;
he is more awesome than all who surround him.
8
Who is like you,
Lord
God Almighty?
You,
Lord
, are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you.
9
You rule over the surging sea;
when its waves mount up, you still them.
10
You crushed Rahab like one of the slain;
with your strong arm you scattered your enemies.
11
The heavens are yours, and yours also the earth;
you founded the world and all that is in it.
12
You created the north and the south;
Tabor and Hermon sing for joy at your name.
13
Your arm is endowed with power;
your hand is strong, your right hand exalted.
14
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne;
love and faithfulness go before you.
15
Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you,
who walk in the light of your presence,
Lord
.
16
They rejoice in your name all day long;
they celebrate your righteousness.
17
For you are their glory and strength,
and by your favor you exalt our horn.
18
Indeed, our shield belongs to the
Lord
,
our king to the Holy One of Israel.
19
Once you spoke in a vision,
to your faithful people you said:
"I have bestowed strength on a warrior;
I have raised up a young man from among the people.
20
I have found David my servant;
with my sacred oil I have anointed him.
21
My hand will sustain him;
surely my arm will strengthen him.
22
The enemy will not get the better of him;
the wicked will not oppress him.
23
I will crush his foes before him
and strike down his adversaries.
24
My faithful love will be with him,
and through my name his horn will be exalted.
25
I will set his hand over the sea,
his right hand over the rivers.
26
He will call out to me, ‘You are my Father,
my God, the Rock my Savior.’
27
And I will appoint him to be my firstborn,
the most exalted of the kings of the earth.
28
I will maintain my love to him forever,
and my covenant with him will never fail.
29
I will establish his line forever,
his throne as long as the heavens endure.
30
"If his sons forsake my law
and do not follow my statutes,
31
if they violate my decrees
and fail to keep my commands,
32
I will punish their sin with the rod,
their iniquity with flogging;
33
but I will not take my love from him,
nor will I ever betray my faithfulness.
34
I will not violate my covenant
or alter what my lips have uttered.
35
Once for all, I have sworn by my holiness—
and I will not lie to David—
36
that his line will continue forever
and his throne endure before me like the sun;
37
it will be established forever like the moon,
the faithful witness in the sky."
38
But you have rejected, you have spurned,
you have been very angry with your anointed one.
39
You have renounced the covenant with your servant
and have defiled his crown in the dust.
40
You have broken through all his walls
and reduced his strongholds to ruins.
41
All who pass by have plundered him;
he has become the scorn of his neighbors.
42
You have exalted the right hand of his foes;
you have made all his enemies rejoice.
43
Indeed, you have turned back the edge of his sword
and have not supported him in battle.
44
You have put an end to his splendor
and cast his throne to the ground.
45
You have cut short the days of his youth;
you have covered him with a mantle of shame.
46
How long,
Lord
? Will you hide yourself forever?
How long will your wrath burn like fire?
47
Remember how fleeting is my life.
For what futility you have created all humanity!
48
Who can live and not see death,
or who can escape the power of the grave?
49
Lord, where is your former great love,
which in your faithfulness you swore to David?
50
Remember, Lord, how your servant has been mocked,
how I bear in my heart the taunts of all the nations,
New King James Version
Chapter 89
4
‘Your seed I will establish forever,
And build up your throne to all generations.’ ”
Selah
5
And the heavens will praise Your wonders, O
Lord
;
Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the saints.
6
For who in the heavens can be compared to the
Lord
?
Who
among the sons of the mighty can be likened to the
Lord
?
7
God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints,
And to be held in reverence by all
those
around Him.
8
O
Lord
God of hosts,
Who
is
mighty like You, O
Lord
?
Your faithfulness also surrounds You.
9
You rule the raging of the sea;
When its waves rise, You still them.
10
You have broken Rahab in pieces, as one who is slain;
You have scattered Your enemies with Your mighty arm.
11
The heavens
are
Yours, the earth also
is
Yours;
The world and all its fullness, You have founded them.
12
The north and the south, You have created them;
Tabor and Hermon rejoice in Your name.
13
You have a mighty arm;
Strong is Your hand,
and
high is Your right hand.
14
Righteousness and justice
are
the foundation of Your throne;
Mercy and truth go before Your face.
15
Blessed
are
the people who know the joyful sound!
They walk, O
Lord
, in the light of Your countenance.
16
In Your name they rejoice all day long,
And in Your righteousness they are exalted.
17
For You
are
the glory of their strength,
And in Your favor our horn is exalted.
18
For our shield
belongs
to the
Lord
,
And our king to the Holy One of Israel.
19
Then You spoke in a vision to Your holy one,
And said: “I have given help to
one who is
mighty;
I have exalted one chosen from the people.
20
I have found My servant David;
With My holy oil I have anointed him,
21
With whom My hand shall be established;
Also My arm shall strengthen him.
22
The enemy shall not outwit him,
Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23
I will beat down his foes before his face,
And plague those who hate him.
24
“But My faithfulness and My mercy
shall be
with him,
And in My name his horn shall be exalted.
25
Also I will set his hand over the sea,
And his right hand over the rivers.
26
He shall cry to Me, ‘You
are
my Father,
My God, and the rock of my salvation.’
27
Also I will make him
My
firstborn,
The highest of the kings of the earth.
28
My mercy I will keep for him forever,
And My covenant shall stand firm with him.
29
His seed also I will make
to endure
forever,
And his throne as the days of heaven.
30
“If his sons forsake My law
And do not walk in My judgments,
31
If they break My statutes
And do not keep My commandments,
32
Then I will punish their transgression with the rod,
And their iniquity with stripes.
33
Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not utterly take from him,
Nor allow My faithfulness to fail.
34
My covenant I will not break,
Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.
35
Once I have sworn by My holiness;
I will not lie to David:
36
His seed shall endure forever,
And his throne as the sun before Me;
37
It shall be established forever like the moon,
Even
like
the faithful witness in the sky.”
Selah
38
But You have cast off and abhorred,
You have been furious with Your anointed.
39
You have renounced the covenant of Your servant;
You have profaned his crown
by casting it
to the ground.
40
You have broken down all his hedges;
You have brought his strongholds to ruin.
41
All who pass by the way plunder him;
He is a reproach to his neighbors.
42
You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries;
You have made all his enemies rejoice.
43
You have also turned back the edge of his sword,
And have not sustained him in the battle.
44
You have made his glory cease,
And cast his throne down to the ground.
45
The days of his youth You have shortened;
You have covered him with shame.
Selah
46
How long,
Lord
?
Will You hide Yourself forever?
Will Your wrath burn like fire?
47
Remember how short my time is;
For what futility have You created all the children of men?
48
What man can live and not see death?
Can he deliver his life from the power of the grave?
Selah
49
Lord, where
are
Your former lovingkindnesses,
Which
You swore to David in Your truth?
50
Remember, Lord, the reproach of Your servants—
How
I bear in my bosom
the reproach of
all the many peoples,
What is the Gospel?
