Psalms 89

ECB(i) 1 On Comprehension: By Ethan the Zerachiy. I sing of the mercies of Yah Veh eternally; with my mouth I make known your trustworthiness generation to generation. 2 For I say, your mercy builds eternally; your trustworthiness establishes in the very heavens: 3 I cut a covenant with my chosen; I oathed to David my servant: 4 your seed establishes eternally and builds your throne generation to generation. Selah. 5 And the heavens spread hands to your marvels, O Yah Veh; to your trustworthiness in the congregation of the holy: 6 Who in the vapours ranks with Yah Veh? Who among the sons of El likens to Yah Veh? 7 El is greatly to be awed in the private counsel of the holy; and awed over them who are all around him. 8 O Yah Elohim Sabaoth, Who is a powerful Yah likened to you? Or to your trustworthiness all around you? 9 You reign over the rising of the sea; the waves rise, you laud them: 10 you crush Rahab as one pierced; you scattered your enemies with your arm of strength; 11 the heavens are yours - the earth is yours - the world and the fulness you founded; 12 the north and the right you created. Tabor and Hermon shout in your name. 13 You have an arm of might; strengthened is your hand; lofted is your right; 14 justness and judgment are the establishment of your throne: mercy and truth anticipate your face. 15 Blithe - the people who know the shout; they walk, O Yah Veh, in the light of your face: 16 in your name they twirl all the day; and in your justness they are lofted. 17 For you are the beauty of their strength; and at your pleasure our horn is lofted. 18 For Yah Veh is our buckler and the Holy One of Yisra El our sovereign. 19 Then you worded in vision to your mercied one and said, I placed help on one who is mighty; I exalted one chosen from the people: 20 I found David my servant; with my holy ointment I anoint him; 21 with whom I establish my hand; my arm strengthens him: 22 neither the enemy exacts from him; nor the son of wickedness abase him: 23 I crush his tribulators at his face and smite them who hate him. 24 And my trustworthiness and my mercy are with him; and in my name his horn is lofted. 25 I set his hand on the sea and his right on the rivers. 26 He calls to me, You - my father, my El and the rock of my salvation. 27 I also give him to be my firstbirthed, Elyon of the sovereigns of the earth. 28 I guard my mercy for him eternally and my trustworthy covenant with him; 29 I set his seed eternal and his throne as the days of the heavens. 30 If his sons forsake my torah and walk not in my judgments; 31 if they profane my statutes and guard not my misvoth; 32 then I visit their rebellion with the scion and their perversity with plagues: 33 I neither void my mercy nor falsify my trustworthiness; 34 neither profane my covenant nor alter the proceedings of my lips. 35 Once I oath by my holiness; I lie not to David: 36 his seed is eternal and his throne as the sun in front of me; 37 - established eternally as the moon and as a trustworthy witness in the vapours. Selah. 38 And you - you cast off and spurn; you pass over your anointed. 39 you reject the covenant of your servant; you profane his separatism to the earth; 40 you breach all his walls; you set his fortresses to ruin. 41 All who pass by the way spoil him; - a reproach to his fellow tabernaclers. 42 You exalt the right of his tribulators; you have all his enemies cheer; 43 you turn the form of his sword and raise him to not war; 44 you shabbathized his purity and precipitate his throne to the earth: 45 you curtailed the days of his youth; you covered him with shame. Selah. 46 Until when, O Yah Veh, hide you yourself? In perpetuity? - Burn your fury as fire? 47 Remember how transcient! Created you all sons of humanity in vain? 48 What mighty lives and sees not death? - rescues his soul from the hand of sheol? Selah. 49 Where are your first mercies, O Adonay, which you oathed to David in your trustworthiness? 50 Remember, O Adonay, the reproach of your servants; how in my bosom I bear all the great people; 51 whom your enemies reproached, O Yah Veh - reproached the heelprints of your anointed. 52 Blessed - Yah Veh eternally. Amen and Amen.
