Psalm 89:1–18 | Liturgical Calendar

1

My song shall be alway of the loving-kindness of the Lord *

with my mouth will I ever be shewing thy truth from one generation to another.

2

For I have said, Mercy shall be set up for ever *

thy truth shalt thou stablish in the heavens.

3

I have made a covenant with my chosen *

I have sworn unto David my servant;

4

Thy seed will I stablish for ever *

and set up thy throne from one generation to another.

5

O Lord, the very heavens shall praise thy wondrous works *

and thy truth in the congregation of the saints.

6

For who is he among the clouds *

that shall be compared unto the Lord?

7

And what is he among the gods *

that shall be like unto the Lord?

8

God is very greatly to be feared in the council of the saints *

and to be had in reverence of all them that are round about him.

9

O Lord God of hosts, who is like unto thee *

thy truth, most mighty Lord, is on every side.

10

Thou rulest the raging of the sea *

thou stillest the waves thereof when they arise.

11

Thou hast subdued Egypt, and destroyed it *

thou hast scattered thine enemies abroad with thy mighty arm.

12

The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine *

thou hast laid the foundation of the round world, and all that therein is.

13

Thou hast made the north and the south *

Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy Name.

14

Thou hast a mighty arm *

strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.

15

Righteousness and equity are the habitation of thy seat *

mercy and truth shall go before thy face.

16

Blessed is the people, O Lord, that can rejoice in thee *

they shall walk in the light of thy countenance.

17

Their delight shall be daily in thy Name *

and in thy righteousness shall they make their boast.

18

For thou art the glory of their strength *

and in thy loving-kindness thou shalt lift up our horns.
