An ode of Ethan the Ezrahite.
89 I will sing always of the Eternal’s love,
telling all ages of thy faithfulness;
2 for thy love thou hast promised to be lasting,
thy faithfulness is firmly fixed in heaven,
5 and heaven is praising, O Eternal, heaven’s own host,
the marvel of thy faithfulness.
6 For who above can rank with the Eternal,
what angel can compare with the Eternal?–
7 a God to be dreaded at the heavenly council,
an over-awing God.
8 O thou Eternal, God of hosts, who can compare with thee,
in all thy love and faithfulness?
9 Thy sway is over the proud sea;
when the waves toss, thou stillest them.
10 Rahab thou didst cut and crush to pieces,
scattering thy foes by the force of thine arm.
11 The heavens are thine, the earth is thine,
’twas thou didst found the world and all it holds;
12 the north and south, thou madest them,
Tabor and Hermon hills acclaim thee.
13 Thine is a right powerful arm,
a strong hand, a right hand swung high;
14 thy throne rests upon equity and justice,
Love and Faithfulness are thine attendants.
15 Happy the people who know thy festal songs,
who live in the sunshine of thy favour!
16 All day long they exult, O thou Eternal,
and extol thy equity.
17 For thou art our pride, thou our strength,
and, thanks to thy favour, our honour is high;
18 we are defended by the Eternal,
by our King, the Majestic One of Israel.
3 Thou saidst, “I make a compact with my chosen,
I swear to my servant David,
4 to make his dynasty endure,
to make his throne last for all time”:
19 thou didst tell thy trusted seer,
thy voice came in a vision:
“I have crowned a hero,
chosen a youth from the people,
20 I have picked out my servant David
and consecrated him as king.
21 My hand shall always help him,
my arm shall make him strong:
22 no foe shall ever surprise him,
no miscreants shall master him;
23 I will shatter his enemies before him,
and strike down all who hated him;
24 my loyalty and love shall be with him,
and I will lift him high in honour;
25 I will extend his power to the sea,
and his authority far as the Euphrates;
26 he shall say, ‘Thou art my Father,
my God, my saving strength!’
27 And I will make him my first-born son,
highest of all kings on earth.
28 I will always keep my word to him,
my compact with him is secure;
29 I make his dynasty eternal,
his throne unending as the heavens.
30 If his sons forsake my law,
and follow not my orders,
31 if they break my rules,
and obey not my commands,
32 then I will scourge them for their sin
and lash them for their lawlessness,
33 but I will never take my love from him,
never will I belie my loyalty;
34 my compact I will never break,
my spoken word I will not change.
35 Once and for all I took a solemn oath,
and I will keep my word to David,
36 that for all time his dynasty should last,
his throne endure before me like the sun,
37 fixed as the moon for evermore,
firm as the constant sky.”
38 And yet thou hast scorned, discarded,
stormed against thy chosen!
39 Thou hast abjured the compact with thy servant,
and thrown his sacred crown into the dust;
40 thou hast demolished all his walls
and laid his forts in ruin;
41 the passers-by all plunder him,
and he is the butt of his neighbours.
42 Thou has allowed his enemies to triumph,
giving delight to all his foes;
43 thou hast made him retreat before them,
and hast not upheld him in battle.
44 Thou hast removed his splendid sceptre
and dashed his throne to the ground;
45 thou has shortened the days of his youth
and heaped disgrace on him.
46 How long, O thou Eternal, wilt thou hide?
Shall thy wrath, like a fire, burn on for ever?
47 Remember, Lord, what life is!–
how frail and futile thou has made all men!
48 Who can live on and die not,
who can escape the grave?
49 Where is thy former love, O Lord,
which thou didst pledge to David faithfully?
50 Remember, Lord, the taunts thrown at thy servants,
the insults of the world we have to bear,
51 the taunts of thine own enemies, O Eternal,
taunting thy chosen at every step.
52 [[Blessed be the Eternal for ever and ever!
Even so, even so!]]
