[19] Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted out of the people. [20] I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed [21] With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen [22] The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him. [23] And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate [24] But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted. [25] I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers. [26] He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation. [27] Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth. [28] My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him. [29] His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven. [30] If his children forsake my law, not in my judgments; [31] If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments; [32] Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes. [33] Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. [34] My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. [35] Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David. [36] His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun [37] It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.
