Of Ethan the Ezrahite. My song will be of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make his faith clear to all generations. +For you have said, Mercy will be made strong for ever; my faith will be unchanging in the heavens. +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. +For who is there in the heavens in comparison with the Lord? who is like the Lord among the sons of the gods? +God is greatly to be feared among the saints, and to be honoured over all those who are about him. +O Lord God of armies, who is strong like you, O Jah? and your unchanging faith is round about you. +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. +You have made the north and the south; Tabor and Hermon are sounding with joy at your name. +Yours is an arm of power; strong is your hand and high your right hand. +The seat of your kingdom is resting on righteousness and right judging: mercy and good faith come before your face. +Happy are the people who have knowledge of the holy cry: the light of your face, O Lord, will be shining on their way. +In your name will they have joy all the day: in your righteousness will they be lifted up. +For you are the glory of their strength; in your pleasure will our horn be lifted up. +For our breastplate is the Lord; and our king is the Holy One of Israel's. +Then your voice came to your holy one in a vision, saying, I have put the crown on a strong one, lifting up one taken from among the people. +I have made discovery of David my servant; I have put my holy oil on his head. +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 will be true to my agreement; the things which have gone out of my lips will not be changed. +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. -- cgit v1.2.3
