I have made an agreement with the man of my selection, I have made an oath to David my servant;


I will make your seed go on for ever, your kingdom will be strong through all generations. (Selah.)


In heaven let them give praise for your wonders, O Lord; and your unchanging faith among the saints.

You have rule over the sea in storm; when its waves are troubled, you make them calm.


Rahab was crushed by you like one wounded to death; with your strong arm you put to flight all your haters.


Yours are the heavens, and the earth is yours; you have made the world, and everything which is in it.

In your name will they have joy all the day: in your righteousness will they be lifted up.

My hand will be his support; my arm will give him strength.


The deceit of those who are against him will not overcome him; he will not be troubled by the sons of evil.

I will have those who are against him broken before his face, and his haters will be crushed under my blows.

But my faith and my mercy will be with him; and in my name will his horn be lifted up.


I will put his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.

He will say to me, You are my father, my God, and the Rock of my salvation.


And I will make him the first of my sons, most high over the kings of the earth.


I will keep my mercy for him for ever; my agreement with him will not be changed.


His seed will keep their place for ever; his kingdom will be eternal, like the heavens.


If his children give up my law, and are not ruled by my decisions;


If my rules are broken, and my orders are not kept;

Then I will send punishment on them for their sin; my rod will be the reward of their evil- doing.

But I will not take away my mercy from him, and will not be false to my faith.

I have made an oath once by my holy name, that I will not be false to David.


His seed will not come to an end for ever; the seat of his kingdom will be like the sun before me.


It will be fixed for ever like the moon; and the witness in heaven is true. (Selah.)


But you have put him away in disgust; you have been angry with the king of your selection.

You have made your agreement with your servant of no effect: you have had no respect for his crown, it has come down even to the earth.


All his walls are broken down; you have given his strong towers to destruction.


All those who come by take away his goods; he is laughed at by his neighbours.


You have given power to the right hand of his haters; you have made glad all those who are against him.

His sword is turned back; you have not been his support in the fight.

You have put an end to his glory: the seat of his kingdom has been levelled to the earth.

You have made him old before his time; he is covered with shame. (Selah.)

How long, O Lord, will you Keep yourself for ever from our eyes? how long will your wrath be burning like fire?

See how short my time is; why have you made all men for no purpose?


What man now living will not see death? will he be able to keep back his soul from the underworld? (Selah.)


Lord, where are your earlier mercies? where is the oath which you made to David in unchanging faith?


Keep in mind, O Lord, the shame of your servants, and how the bitter words of all the people have come into my heart;

The bitter words of your haters, O Lord, shaming the footsteps of your king.

Let the Lord be praised for ever. So be it, So be it.
