Psalm 89

God’s Covenant with David

A Maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite.
¹ I will sing of your steadfast love, O Lord,^* for ever;
   with my mouth I will proclaim your faithfulness to all generations.
² I declare that your steadfast love is established for ever;
   your faithfulness is as firm as the heavens.

³ You said, ‘I have made a covenant with my chosen one,
   I have sworn to my servant David:
⁴ “I will establish your descendants for ever,
   and build your throne for all generations.” ’
          Selah

⁵ Let the heavens praise your wonders, O Lord,
   your faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones.
⁶ For who in the skies can be compared to the Lord?
   Who among the heavenly beings is like the Lord,
⁷ a God feared in the council of the holy ones,
   great and awesome^* above all that are around him?
⁸ O Lord God of hosts,
   who is as mighty as you, O Lord?
   Your faithfulness surrounds you.
