Psalms 89:1-13 ▼

1 A wyse instruction of Ethan the Ezrachite. I wyll sing alwayes of the mercy of God: with my mouth I wyll make knowen thy trueth from one generation to another.

2 For I sayde, mercy shall for euer endure: thou hast established thy trueth in the heauens.

3 I haue made a couenaunt with my chosen: I haue sworne vnto Dauid my seruaunt.

4 I wyll establishe thy seede for euer: and buylde vp thy throne from generation to generation. Selah.

5 O God, the very heauens shall confesse thy wonderous workes: and thy trueth in the congregation of saintes.

6 For who is he in the cloudes that shal matche God: and who is like vnto God amongst the children gods?

7 God is very terrible in the assemblie of saintes: and to be feared aboue al them that are about him.

8 O God, Lorde of hoastes, who is like vnto thee a most mightie Lorde: and thy trueth is on euery side thee.

9 Thou rulest the ragyng of the sea: when her waues aryse, thou delayest them.

10 Thou hast brought Egypt in so bad a case as if it were wounded: thou hast scattered thyne enemies abrode with thy mightie arme.

11 The heauens are thine, the earth also is thine: thou hast layde the foundation of the rounde worlde, and of all the plentie that is therin.

12 Thou hast made the north and the south: Tabor and Hermon do reioyce in thy name.

13 Thou hast a mightie arme: thy hand is strong, and thy right hand is exalted.
