Psalms 89:1-13 ▼

1 A Maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the lovingkindnesses of Yahweh forever; From generation to generation I will make known Your faithfulness with my mouth.

2 For I have said, “Lovingkindness will be built up forever; In the heavens You will establish Your faithfulness.”

3 “I have cut a covenant with My chosen; I have sworn to David My servant,

4 I will establish your seed forever And build up your throne from generation to generation.” Selah.

5 The heavens will praise Your wonders, O Yahweh; Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.

6 For who in the sky is comparable to Yahweh? Who among the sons of the mighty is like Yahweh,

7 A God greatly dreaded in the council of the holy ones, And fearsome above all those who are around Him?

8 O Yahweh God of hosts, who is like You, O mighty Yah? Your faithfulness also surrounds You.

9 You rule the swelling of the sea; When its waves rise, You still them.

10 You Yourself crushed Rahab like one who is slain; You scattered Your enemies with Your strong arm.

11 The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours; The world and its fullness, You have founded them.

12 The north and the south, You have created them; Tabor and Hermon sing with joy at Your name.

13 You have a mighty arm; Your hand is strong, Your right hand is exalted.
