3  You have said, “I have made ^ma covenant with my ⁿchosen one;

I have ^osworn to David my servant:

4  ‘I will establish your ^poffspring forever,

and build your ^qthrone for all generations.’” Selah

6  For ^uwho in the skies can be compared to the Lord?

^uWho among the heavenly beings² is like the Lord,

7  a God greatly ^vto be feared in the council of ^tthe holy ones,

and awesome above all ^wwho are around him?

8  O Lord God of hosts,

^xwho is mighty as you are, O ^yLord,

with your faithfulness all around you?

9  You rule the raging of the sea;

when its waves rise, you ^zstill them.

10  You ^acrushed ^bRahab like a carcass;

you ^cscattered your enemies with your mighty arm.

11  ^dThe heavens are yours; the earth also is yours;

^ethe world and all that is in it, you have ^ffounded them.

12  ^gThe north and the south, you have created them;

^hTabor and ⁱHermon ^jjoyously praise your name.

13  You have a mighty arm;

strong is your hand, high your right hand.

14  ^kRighteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne;

^lsteadfast love and faithfulness go before you.

15  Blessed are the people who know ^mthe festal shout,

who walk, O Lord, in ⁿthe light of your face,

16  who exult in your ^oname all the day

and in your righteousness are ^pexalted.

17  For you are ^qthe glory of their strength;

by your favor our ^rhorn is exalted.

18  For our ^sshield belongs to the Lord,
