Psa. 89:20‑37• 20I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
 21With whom my hand shall be established; and mine arm shall strengthen him.
 22No enemy shall exact upon him, nor the son of wickedness afflict him;
 23But I will beat down his adversaries before his face, and will smite them that hate him.
 24And my faithfulness and my loving-kindness shall be with him, and by my name shall his horn be exalted.
 25And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
 26*He* shall call unto me, Thou art my father, my *God, and the rock of my salvation;
 27And as to me, I will make him firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
 28My loving-kindness will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him;
 29And I will establish his seed for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
 30If his sons forsake my law, and walk not in mine ordinances;
 31If they profane my statutes, and keep not my commandments:
 32Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
 33Nevertheless my loving-kindness will I not utterly take from him, nor belie my faithfulness;
 34My covenant will I not profane, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
 35Once have I sworn by my holiness; I will not lie unto David:
 36His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me;
 37It shall be established for ever as the moon, and the witness in the sky is firm. Selah. (Psa. 89:20‑37)
