Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.
1
I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my
mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness
shalt thou establish in the very heavens.
3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my
servant,
4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all
generations. Selah.
5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy
faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.
6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among
the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?
7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be
had in reverence of all them that are about him.
8 O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to
thy faithfulness round about thee?
9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou
stillest them.
10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast
scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.
11 The heavens are thine, the earth also is
thine: as
for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
12 The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon
shall rejoice in thy name.
13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy
right hand.
14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy
and truth shall go before thy face.
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound:
they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness
shall they be exalted.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour
our horn shall be exalted.
18 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is
our king.
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.
20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
21 With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall
strengthen him.
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 him.
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, and walk 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 before me.
37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a
faithful witness in heaven. Selah.
38 But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been
wroth with thine anointed.
39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned
his crown by casting it to the ground.
40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong
holds to ruin.
41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his
neighbours.
42 Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made
all his enemies to rejoice.
43 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to
stand in the battle.
44 Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the
ground.
45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with
shame. Selah.
46 How long, LORD? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn
like fire?
47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in
vain?
48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he
deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.
49 Lord, where are thy former
lovingkindnesses, which thou
swarest unto David in thy truth?
50 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in
my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;
51 Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have
reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
52 Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
