[[[A Psalm] of instruction for Aetham the Israelite.]] I will sing of thy mercies, O Lord, for ever: I will declare thy truth with my mouth to all generations. |
|
89:1 ¶
[[Maschil°°
of Ethan°
the Ezrahite.]]°
I will sing°°
of the mercies°
of Yahweh°
for ever:°
with my mouth°
will I make known°°
thy faithfulness°
to all°
generations.° |
|
89:2
For thou hast said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy truth shall be established in the heavens. |
|
89:2
For°
I have said,°°
Mercy°
shall be built up°°
for ever:°
thy faithfulness°
shalt thou establish°°
in the very heavens.° |
|
89:3
I made a covenant with my chosen ones, I sware unto David my servant. |

Selah.° |
|
89:5
The heavens shall declare thy wonders, O Lord; and thy truth in the assembly of the saints. |
|
89:5
And the heavens°
shall praise°°
thy wonders,°
O Yahweh:°
thy faithfulness°
also°
in the congregation°
of the saints.° |
|
89:6
For who in the heavens shall be compared to the Lord? and who shall be likened to the Lord among the sons of God? |
|
89:6
For°
who°
in the heaven°
can be compared°°
unto Yahweh?°
[who] among the sons°
of the elim°
can be likened°°
unto Yahweh?° |
|
89:7
God is glorified in the council of the saints; great and terrible toward all that are round about him. |
|
89:7
El°
is greatly°
to be feared°°
in the assembly°
of the saints,°
and to be had in reverence°°
of°
all°
[them that are] about°
him. |
|
89:8
O Lord God of hosts, who is like to thee? thou art mighty, O Lord, and thy truth is round about thee. |
|
89:8
O Yahweh°
Elohim°
Sabaoth,°
who°
[is] a strong°
Yah°
like unto thee?°
or to thy faithfulness°
round about°
thee? |
|
89:9
Thou rulest the power of the sea; and thou calmest the tumult of its waves. |
|
89:9
Thou°
rulest°°
the raging°
of the sea:°
when the waves°
thereof arise,°°
thou°
stillest°°
them. |
|
89:10
Thou has brought down the proud as one that is slain; and with the arm of thy power thou has scattered thine enemies. |
|
89:10
Thou°
hast broken°°
Rahab°
in pieces,°°
as one that is slain;°
thou hast scattered°°
thine enemies°°
with thy strong°
arm.° |
|
89:11
The heavens are thine, and the earth is thine: thou hast founded the world, and the fullness of it. |
|
89:11
The heavens°
[are] thine, the earth°
also°
[is] thine: [as for] the world°
and the fulness°
thereof, thou°
hast founded°°
them. |
|
89:12
Thou hast created the north and the west: Tabor{gr.Thabor} and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name. |
|
89:12
The north°
and the south°
thou°
hast created°°
them: Tabor°
and Hermon°
shall rejoice°°
in thy name.° |
|
89:13
Thine is the mighty arm: let thy hand be strengthened, let thy right hand be exalted. |
|
89:13
Thou hast a mighty°
arm:°
strong°°
is thy hand,°
[and] high°°
is thy right hand.° |
|
89:14
Justice and judgment are the establishment of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face. |
|
89:14
Justice°
and judgment°
[are] the habitation°
of thy throne:°
mercy°
and truth°
shall go°°
before thy face.° |
|
89:15
Blessed is the people that knows the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance. |
|
89:15
Blessed°
[is] the people°
that know°°
the joyful sound:°
they shall walk,°°
O Yahweh,°
in the light°
of thy countenance.° |
|
89:16
And in thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted. |
|
89:16
In thy name°
shall they rejoice°°
all°
the day:°
and in thy righteousness°
shall they be exalted.°° |
|
89:17
For thou art the boast of their strength; and in thy good pleasure shall our horn be exalted, |
|
89:17
For°
thou°
[art] the glory°
of their strength:°
and in thy favour°
our horn°
shall be exalted.°°°° |
|
89:18
for [our] help is of the Lord; and of the Holy One of Israel, our king. |
|
89:18
For°
Yahweh°
[is] our defence;°
and the Holy One°
of Israel°
[is] our king.° |
|
89:19
Then thou spokest in vision to thy children, and saidst, I have laid help on a mighty one; I have exalted one chosen out of my people. |
|
89:19
Then°
thou spakest°°
in vision°
to thy holy one,°
and saidst,°°
I have laid°°
help°
upon°
[one that is] mighty;°
I have exalted°°
[one] chosen°°°
out of the people.°° |
|
89:20
I have found David my servant; I have anointed him by [my] holy mercy. |
|
89:20
I have found°°
David°
my servant;°
with my holy°
oil°
have I anointed°°
him: |
|
89:21
For my hand shall support him; and mine arm shall strengthen him. |
|
89:21
With°
whom°
my hand°
shall be established:°°
mine arm°
also°
shall strengthen°°
him. |
|
89:22
The enemy shall have no advantage against him; and the son of transgression shall not hurt him again. |
|
89:22
The enemy°°
shall not°
exact°°
upon him; nor°
the son°
of wickedness°
afflict°°
him. |
|
89:23
And I will hew down his foes before him, and put to flight those that hate him. |
|
89:23
And I will beat down°°
his foes°
before his face,°°
and plague°°
them that hate°°
him. |
|
89:24
But my truth and my mercy shall be with him; and in my name shall his horn be exalted. |
|
89:24
But my faithfulness°
and my mercy°
[shall be] with°
him: and in my name°
shall his horn°
be exalted.°° |
|
89:25
And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers. |
|
89:25
I will set°°
his hand°
also in the sea,°
and his right hand°
in the rivers.° |
|
89:26
He shall call upon me, [saying], Thou art my Father, my God, and the helper of my salvation. |
|
89:26
He°
shall cry°°
unto me, Thou°
[art] my father,°
my El,°
and the rock°
of my salvation.° |
|
89:27
And I will make him [my] first-born, higher than the kings of the earth. |
|
89:27
Also°
I°
will make°°
him [my] firstborn,°
higher°
than the kings°
of the earth.° |
|
89:28
I will keep my mercy for him for ever, and my covenant [shall be] firm with him. |
|
89:28
My mercy°
will I keep°°
for him for evermore,°
and my covenant°
shall stand fast°°
with him. |
|
89:29
And I will establish his seed for ever and ever, and his throne as the days of heaven. |
|
89:29
His seed°
also will I make°°
[to endure] for ever,°
and his throne°
as the days°
of heaven.° |
|
89:30
If his children should forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments; |
|
89:30
If°
his children°
forsake°°
my law,°
and walk°°°
not°
in my judgments;° |
|
89:31
if they should profane my ordinances, and not keep my commandments; |
|
89:31
If°
they break°°
my statutes,°
and keep°°
not°
my commandments;° |
|
89:32
I will visit their transgressions with a rod, and their sins with scourges. |
|
89:32
Then will I visit°°
their transgression°
with the rod,°
and their iniquity°
with stripes.° |
|
89:33
But my mercy I will not utterly remove from him, nor wrong my truth. |
|
89:33
Nevertheless my lovingkindness°
will I not°
utterly take°°
from°°
him, nor°
suffer my faithfulness°
to fail.°°° |
|
89:34
Neither will I by any means profane my covenant; and I will not make void the things that proceed out of my lips. |
|
89:34
My covenant°
will I not°
break,°°
nor°
alter°°
the thing that is gone out°
of my lips.° |
|
89:35
Once have I sworn by my holiness, that I will not lie to David. |
|
89:35
Once°
have I sworn°°
by my holiness°
that I will not°
lie°°
unto David.° |
|
89:36
His see shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me; |
|
89:36
His seed°
shall endure°
for ever,°
and his throne°
as the sun°
before°
me. |
|
89:37
and as the moon [that is] established for ever, and as the faithful witness in heaven. Pause. |
|
89:37
It shall be established°°
for ever°
as the moon,°
and [as] a faithful°°
witness°
in heaven.°
Selah.° |
|
89:38
But thou hast cast off and set at nought, thou has rejected thine anointed. |
|
89:38
But thou°
hast cast off°°
and abhorred,°°
thou hast been wroth°°
with°
thine anointed.° |
|
89:39
Thou hast overthrown the covenant of thy servant; thou has profaned his sanctuary, [casting it] to the ground. |
|
89:39
Thou hast made void°°
the covenant°
of thy servant:°
thou hast profaned°°
his crown°
[by casting it] to the ground.° |
|
89:40
Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast made his strong holds a terror. |
|
89:40
Thou hast broken down°°
all°
his hedges;°
thou hast brought°°
his strong holds°
to ruin.° |
|
89:41
All that go by the way have spoiled him: he is become a reproach to his neighbours. |
|
89:41
All°
that pass by°°
the way°
spoil°°
him: he is°
a reproach°
to his neighbours.° |
|
89:42
Thou hast exalted the right hand of his enemies; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice. |
|
89:42
Thou hast set up°°
the right hand°
of his adversaries;°
thou hast made all°
his enemies°°
to rejoice.°° |
|
89:43
Thou hast turned back the help of his sword, and hast not helped him in the battle. |
|
89:43
Thou hast also°
turned°°
the edge°
of his sword,°
and hast not°
made him to stand°°
in the battle.° |
|
89:44
Thou hast deprived him of glory: thou hast broken down his throne to the ground. |
|
89:44
Thou hast made his glory°°
to cease,°°
and cast°°
his throne°
down°°
to the ground.° |
|
89:45
Thou hast shortened the days of his throne: thou hast poured shame upon him. Pause. |
|
89:45
The days°
of his youth°
hast thou shortened:°°
thou hast covered°°°
him with shame.°
Selah.° |
|
89:46
How long, O Lord, wilt thou turn away, for ever? shall thine anger flame out as fire? |
|
89:46
How long,°°
Yahweh?°
wilt thou hide°°
thyself°
for ever?°
shall thy wrath°
burn°°
like°
fire?° |
|
89:47
Remember what my being is: for hast thou created all the sons of men in vain? |
|
89:47
Remember°°
how°
short°
my°
time is: wherefore°°
hast thou made°°
all°
men°°
in vain?° |
|
89:48
What man is there who shall live, and not see death? shall [any one] deliver his soul from the hand of the grave{gr.Hades}? Pause. |
|
89:48
What°
man°
[is he that] liveth,°°
and shall not°
see°°
death?°
shall he deliver°°
his soul°
from the hand°°
of the grave?°
Selah.° |
|
89:49
Where are thine ancient mercies, O Lord, which thou swarest to David in thy truth? |
|
89:49
Yahweh,°
where°
[are] thy former°
lovingkindnesses,°
[which] thou swarest°°
unto David°
in thy truth?° |
|
89:50
Remember, O Lord, the reproach of thy servants, which I have borne in my bosom, [even the reproach] of many nations; |
|
89:50
Remember,°°
Yahweh,°
the reproach°
of thy servants;°
[how] I do bear°°
in my bosom°
[the reproach of] all°
the mighty°
people;° |
|
89:51
wherewith thine enemies have reviled, O Lord: wherewith they have reviled the recompense of thine anointed. |
|
89:51
Wherewith°
thine enemies°°
have reproached,°°
O Yahweh;°
wherewith°
they have reproached°°
the footsteps°
of thine anointed.° |
|
89:52
Blessed be the Lord for ever. So be it, so be it. |
|
89:52
Blessed°°
[be] Yahweh°
for evermore.°
Amen,°
and Amen.° |
