PSALM 89

The Earth and Heavens Acknowledge The LORD

A contemplation of Ethan the Ezrahite.

1 [²of your mercies ³O lord ⁴into ⁵the ⁶eon ¹I shall sing]. Unto generation and generation I shall report your truth with my mouth. 2 For you said, Into the eon mercy shall be built up. [³in ⁴the ⁵heavens ²shall be prepared ¹Your truth]. 3 I ordained a covenant with my chosen ones; I swore by an oath to David my servant. 4 Unto the eon I shall prepare your seed, and I will build [²unto ³generation ⁴and ⁵generation ¹your throne]. 5 [³shall acknowledge ¹The ²heavens] your wonders, O lord, and your truth in the assembly of the holy ones. 6 For who in the clouds shall be equal to the lord; likened to the lord among the sons of God? 7 God is being glorified in the counsel of holy ones; [²great ³and ⁴fearful ¹he is] over all the ones surrounding him. 8 O lord, the God of the forces, who is likened to you? You are mighty, O lord, and your truth is round about you. 9 You are master of the might of the sea; and the tossing about of its waves you soothe. 10 You humbled [²as ³slain ¹the proud]; with the arm of your might you dispersed your enemies. 11 [³are yours ¹The ²heavens], and [³is yours ¹the ²earth]. The inhabitable world and its fullness you founded. 12 The north and the west you created. Tabor and Hermon [²in ³your name ¹shall exult]. 13 Your arm is with dominations. Let [²be fortified ¹your hand]! Let [²be raised up high ¹your right hand]! 14 Righteousness and equity are the preparation of your throne; mercy and truth shall go forth before your face. 15 Blessed are the people knowing the shout of joy. O lord, [²in ³the ⁴light ⁵of your face ¹they shall go]. 16 And in your name they shall exult the entire day. And in your righteousness they shall be raised up high. 17 For [³the ⁴boast ⁵of their power ¹you ²are]; and by your benevolence [²shall be raised up high ¹our horn]. 18 For [²is of the ³ lord ¹assistance], and of the holy one of Israel, our king. 19 Then you spoke in a vision to your sons, and said, I put help upon a mighty one; raising up high a chosen one from out of my people. 20 I found David my servant. [³with ⁵oil ⁴my holy ¹I anointed ²him]. 21 For my hand shall be an aid to him; and my arm shall strengthen him. 22 [²shall not ³derive benefit ¹The enemy] by him; and the son of lawlessness shall not proceed to inflict evil on him. 23 And I will cut down [²from ³in front ⁴of him ¹his enemies]; and the ones detesting him shall be put to flight. 24 And my truth and my mercy are with him; and in my name [²shall be raised up high ¹his horn]. 25 And I will set [²in ³the sea ¹his hand], and [²in ³rivers ¹his right hand]. 26 He shall call upon me, saying, [²my father ¹You are], my God, and the shielder of my deliverance. 27 And I [³first-born ¹will make ²him], high above the kings of the earth. 28 Into the eon I shall guard to him my mercy; and my covenant is trustworthy to him. 29 And I shall establish [²into ³the ⁴eon ⁵of the ⁶eon ¹his seed], and his throne as the days of heaven. 30 If [²should abandon ¹his sons] my law, and [³by my judgments ¹should not ²go]; 31 if [²my ordinances ¹they should profane], and [³my commandments ¹should not ²keep]; 32 then I will visit [²with ³a rod ¹their lawlessnesses]; and [²with ³whips ¹their iniquities]. 33 But my mercy in no way should I efface from them, nor in any way should I wrong in my truth; 34 nor in any way should I profane my covenant; and the things going forth through my lips in no way should I annul. 35 Once I swore by an oath by my holiness; shall I lie to David, no. 36 His seed [²into ³the ⁴eon ¹shall abide], and his throne as the sun before me; 37 and as the moon being readied into the eon, and the [²witness ³in ⁴heaven ¹trustworthy]. PAUSE. 38 But you thrusted away and treated with contempt. You raised your anointed one. 39 You eradicated the covenant of your servant. You profaned in the land of his sanctuary. 40 You demolished all his barriers. You made his fortresses dreaded. 41 [⁵plundered ⁶him ¹All ²the ones ³traveling through ⁴the way]. He became scorn to his neighbors. 42 You raised up high the right hand of the ones afflicting him; you made glad all his enemies. 43 You turned back the help of his broadsword, and did not assist him in battle. 44 You rested from cleansing him. [²his throne ³unto ⁴the ⁵ground ¹You broke down]. 45 You diminished the days of his throne. You poured upon him shame. 46 For how long, O lord, will you turn away -- to the end? Will [²burn ³as ⁴fire ¹your anger]? 47 Remember what my reality is; for acting in folly, did you creat all the sons of men? 48 Who is the man who shall live and not see death? Shall he rescue his own soul from out of the hand of Hades? PAUSE. 49 Where are [³mercies ¹your ²ancient], O lord, which you swore by an oath to David in your truth? 50 Remember, O lord, the scorning of your servants! which I underwent in my bosom, of many nations; 51 where [²berated ¹your enemies], O lord, where they berated the equivalent of your anointed one. 52 Blessed be the lord into the eon. May it be. May it be.
