Psalm 89:1–14

A Maskil1 of bEthan the Ezrahite.

1  I will sing of the csteadfast love of the Lord forever;

with my mouth I will make known your faithfulness to all generations.

2  For I said, “Steadfast love will be built up forever;

din the heavens you will establish your faithfulness.”

3  You have said, e“I have made a covenant with my chosen one;

I have fsworn to David my servant:

4  ‘I will establish your offspring gforever,

and build your throne for all generations.’” Selah

5  Let the hheavens praise your wonders, O Lord,

your faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones!

6  For iwho in the skies can be compared to the Lord?

Who among the heavenly beings2 is like the Lord,

7  a God greatly to be feared in the council of the holy ones,

and awesome above all who are around him?

8  O Lord God of hosts,

who is mighty as you are, O Lord,

with your faithfulness all around you?

9  jYou rule the raging of the sea;

when its waves rise, you still them.

10  You crushed kRahab like a carcass;

you scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.

11  lThe heavens are yours; mthe earth also is yours;

the world and all that is in it, you have founded them.

12  The north and the south, you have created them;

Tabor and Hermon njoyously praise your name.

13  You have a mighty oarm;

strong is your hand, high your right hand.

14  pRighteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne;

steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.
