19. Lord, you once spoke in a vision to your followers: “I have made a young soldier strong. From among my people I chose him for an important position.
20. I have found my servant David and anointed him as king with my special oil.
21. I will support him with my right hand, and my arm will make him strong.
22. So no enemy will ever control him. The wicked will never defeat him.
23. I will destroy his enemies before his eyes. I will defeat those who hate him.
24. I will always love and support him. I will always make him strong.
