Psalms 89:1-13 ▼

1 A maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite. [2] I will sing of your mercy forever, LORD proclaim your faithfulness through all ages.

2 For I said, “My mercy is established forever; my faithfulness will stand as long as the heavens.

3 I have made a covenant with my chosen one; I have sworn to David my servant:

4 I will make your dynasty stand forever and establish your throne through all ages.” Selah

5 The heavens praise your marvels, LORD, your loyalty in the assembly of the holy ones.

6 Who in the skies ranks with the LORD? Who is like the LORD among the sons of the gods?

7 A God dreaded in the council of the holy ones, greater and more awesome than all those around him!

8 LORD, God of hosts, who is like you? Mighty LORD, your faithfulness surrounds you.

9 You rule the raging sea; you still its swelling waves.

10 You crush Rahab with a mortal blow; with your strong arm you scatter your foes.

11 Yours are the heavens, yours the earth; you founded the world and everything in it.

12 Zaphon and Amanus you created; Tabor and Hermon rejoice in your name.

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