Psalm 89 v. 21-52 (Covenanters CM)

21 With whom my hand shall stablished be;mine arm shall make him strong.22 On him the foe shall not exact,nor son of mischief wrong.23 I will beat down before his faceall his malicious foes;I will them greatly plague who dowith hatred him oppose.24 My mercy and my faithfulnesswith him yet still shall be;And in my name his horn and pow’rmen shall exalted see.25 His hand and pow’r shall reach afar;I’ll set it in the sea;And his right hand establishedshall in the rivers be.26 Thou art my Father, he shall cry,thou art my God alone;And he shall say, Thou art the Rockof my salvation.27 I’ll make him my first-born, more highthan kings of any land.28 My love I’ll ever keep for him,my cov’nant fast shall stand.29 His seed I by my pow’r will makefor ever to endure;And, as the days of heav’n, his throneshall stable be, and sure.30 But if his children shall forsakemy laws, and go astray,And in my judgments shall not walk,but wander from my way:31 If they my laws break, and do notkeep my commandements;32 I’ll visit then their faults with rods,their sins with chastisements.33 Yet I’ll not take my love from him,nor false my promise make.34 My cov’nant I’ll not break, nor changewhat with my mouth I spake.35 Once by my holiness I sware,to David I’ll not lie;36 His seed and throne shall, as the sun,before me last for aye.37 It, like the moon, shall ever beestablished stedfastly;And like to that which in the heav’ndoth witness faithfully.38 But thou, displeased, hast cast off,thou didst abhor and loathe;With him that thine anointed isthou hast been very wroth.39 Thou hast thy servant’s covenantmade void, and quite cast by;Thou hast profaned his crown, while itcast on the ground doth lie.40 Thou all his hedges hast broke down,his strong holds down hast torn.41 He to all passers-by a spoil,to neighbors is a scorn.42 Thou hast set up his foes’ right hand;mad’st all his en’mies glad:43 Turned his sword’s edge, and him to standin battle hast not made.44 His glory thou hast made to cease,his throne to ground down cast;45 Shortened his days of youth, and himwith shame thou covered hast.46 How long, Lord, wilt thou hide thyself?for ever, in thine ire?And shall thine indignationburn like unto a fire?47 Remember, Lord, how short a timeI shall on earth remain:O wherefore is it so that thouhas made all men in vain?48 What man is he that liveth here,and death shall never see?Or from the power of the gravewhat man his soul shall free?49 Thy former loving-kindnesses,O Lord, where be they now?Those which in truth and faithfulnessto David sworn hast thou?50 Mind, Lord, thy servant’s sad reproach;how I in bosom bearThe scornings of the people all,who strong and mighty are.51 Wherewith thy raging enemiesreproached, O Lord, think on;Wherewith they have reproached the stepsof thine anointed one.52 All blessing to the Lord our Godlet be ascribed then:For evermore so let it be.Amen, yea, and amen.
