Psalm 89:7-21 English Standard Version (ESV)

7. a God greatly to be feared in the council of the holy ones,and awesome above all who are around him?

8. O Lord God of hosts, who is mighty as you are, O Lord,with your faithfulness all around you?

9. You rule the raging of the sea;when its waves rise, you still them.

10. You crushed Rahab like a carcass;you scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.

11. The heavens are yours; the earth also is yours; the world and all that is in it, you have founded them.

12. The north and the south, you have created them; Tabor and Hermon joyously praise your name.

13. You have a mighty arm;strong is your hand, high your right hand.

14. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.

15. Blessed are the people who know the festal shout,who walk, O Lord, in the light of your face,

16. who exult in your name all the dayand in your righteousness are exalted.

17. For you are the glory of their strength;by your favor our horn is exalted.

18. For our shield belongs to the Lord,our king to the Holy One of Israel.

19. Of old you spoke in a vision to your godly one, and said:“I have granted help to one who is mighty;I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20. 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.
